2006-11-22WorkStruct: Merge the pending bit into the wq_data pointerDavid Howells
Reclaim a word from the size of the work_struct by folding the pending bit and the wq_data pointer together. This shouldn't cause misalignment problems as all pointers should be at least 4-byte aligned. Signed-Off-By: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2006-11-22WorkStruct: Typedef the work function prototypeDavid Howells
Define a type for the work function prototype. It's not only kept in the work_struct struct, it's also passed as an argument to several functions. This makes it easier to change it. Signed-Off-By: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2006-11-22WorkStruct: Separate delayable and non-delayable events.David Howells
Separate delayable work items from non-delayable work items be splitting them into a separate structure (delayed_work), which incorporates a work_struct and the timer_list removed from work_struct. The work_struct struct is huge, and this limits it's usefulness. On a 64-bit architecture it's nearly 100 bytes in size. This reduces that by half for the non-delayable type of event.

2006-11-20Add "pure_initcall" for static variable initializationLinus Torvalds
This is a quick hack to overcome the fact that SRCU currently does not allow static initializers, and we need to sometimes initialize those things before any other initializers (even "core" ones) can do so. Currently we don't allow this at all for modules, and the only user that needs is right now is cpufreq.

2006-11-17Revert "ACPI: created a dedicated workqueue for notify() execution"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit 37605a6900f6b4d886d995751fcfeef88c4e462c. Again. This same bug has now been introduced twice: it was done earlier by commit b8d35192c55fb055792ff0641408eaaec7c88988, only to be reverted last time in commit 72945b2b90a5554975b8f72673ab7139d232a121. We must NOT try to queue up notify handlers to another thread than the normal ACPI execution thread, because the notifications on some systems seem to just keep on accumulating until we run out of memory and/or threads. Keeping events within the one deferred execution thread automatically throttles the events properly. At least the Compaq N620c will lock up completely on the first thermal event without this patch reverted.

2006-11-17x86: be more careful when walking back the frame pointer chainLinus Torvalds
When showing the stack backtrace, make sure that we never accept not only an unchanging frame pointer, but also a frame pointer that moves back down the stack frame. It must always grow up (toward older stack frames). I doubt this has triggered, but a subtly corrupt stack with extremely unlucky contents could cause us to loop forever on a bogus endless frame pointer chain. This review was triggered by much worse problems happening in some of the other stack unwinding code. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-11-17[PATCH] x86_64: stack unwinder crash fixIngo Molnar
the new dwarf2 unwinder crashes while trying to dump the stack: Leftover inexact backtrace: Unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffff82800000 RIP: [<ffffffff8026cf26>] dump_trace+0x35b/0x3d2 PGD 203027 PUD 205027 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [2] PREEMPT SMP CPU 0 Modules linked in: Pid: 30, comm: khelper Not tainted 2.6.19-rc6-rt1 #11 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff8026cf26>] [<ffffffff8026cf26>] dump_trace+0x35b/0x3d2 RSP: 0000:ffff81003fb9d848 EFLAGS: 00010006 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: ffffffff805b3520 RDI: 0000000000000000 RBP: ffffffff827ffff9 R08: ffffffff80aad000 R09: 0000000000000005 R10: ffffffff80aae000 R11: ffffffff8037961b R12: ffff81003fb9d858 R13: 0000000000000000 R14: ffffffff80598460 R15: ffffffff80ab1fc0 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffffffff806c4200(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0018 ES: 0018 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: ffffffff82800000 CR3: 0000000000201000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 this crash happened because it did not sanitize the dwarf2 data it got, and got an unaligned stack pointer - which happily walked past the process stack (and eventually reached the end of kernel memory and pagefaulted there) due to this naive iteration condition: HANDLE_STACK (((long) stack & (THREAD_SIZE-1)) != 0); note that i386 is alot more conservative when it comes to trusting stack pointers: static inline int valid_stack_ptr(struct thread_info *tinfo, void *p) { return p > (void *)tinfo && p < (void *)tinfo + THREAD_SIZE - 3; } but the x86_64 code did not take this bit of i386 code. The fix is to align the stack pointer.

2006-11-17lkkbd: Remove my old snail-mail addressJan-Benedict Glaw
I moved to a different town and my old snail-mail address is invalid now. Also, there's no need at all to have any address like that in the sources, so remove it completely. Signed-off-by: Jan-Benedict Glaw <jbglaw@lug-owl.de>
