2007-06-24x86_64: fix misplaced `continue' in mce.cJoshua Wise
Background: When a userspace application wants to know about machine check events, it opens /dev/mcelog and does a read(). Usually, we found that this interface works well, but in some cases, when the system was taking large numbers of machine check exceptions, the read() would hang. The system would output a soft-lockup warning, and the daemon reading from /dev/mcelog would suck up as much of a single CPU as it could spinning in system space. Description: This patch fixes this bug. In particular, there was a "continue" inside a timeout loop that presumably was intended to break out of the outer loop, but instead caused the inner loop to continue. This patch also makes the condition for the break-out a little more evident by changing a !time_before to a time_after_eq. Result: The read() no longer hangs in this test case. Testing: On my system, I could replicate the bug with the following command: # for i in `seq 15000`; do ./inject_sbe.sh; done where inject_sbe.sh contains commands to inject a single-bit error into the next memory write transaction. Patch: This patch is against git f1518a088bde6aea49e7c472ed6ab96178fcba3e.

2007-06-24console UTF-8 fixes (fix)Egmont Koblinger
Recently my console UTF-8 patch went mainline. Here is an additional patch that fixes two nasty issues and improves a third one, namely: 1. My patch changed the behavior if a glyph is not found in the Unicode mapping table. Previously for Unicode values less than 256 or 512 the kernel tried to display the glyph from that position of the glyph table, which could lead to a different accented letter being displayed. I removed this fallback possibility and changed it to display the replacement symbol. As Behdad pointed out, some fonts (e.g. sun12x22 from the kbd package) lack Unicode mapping information, hence all you get is lots of question marks. Though theoretically it's actually a user-space bug (the font should be fixed), Behdad and I both believe that it'd be good to work around in the kernel by re-introducing the fallback solution for ASCII characters only. This sounds a quite reasonable decision, since all fonts ship the ASCII characters in the first 128 positions. This way users won't be surprised by lots of question marks just because s/he issued a not-so-perfectly parameterized setfont command. As this fallback is only re-introduced for code points below 128, you still won't see an accented letter replaced by another, but at least you'll always get the English letters right. 2. My patch introduced "question mark with inverted color attributes" as a last resort fallback glyph. Though it perfectly works on VGA console, on framebuffer you may end up with question marks that are highlighed but shouldn't be, and normal characters that are accidentally highlighed. This is caused by missing FLUSHes when changing the color attribute. 3. I've updated the table of double-width character based on Markus's updated version. Only ten new code poings (one interval) is added.

"Fix interrupt race in idle callback" expects the idle handler to enable interrupt before returning. There was a case in acpi idle routine, in which interrupt was not being enabled before return, which caused the system to hang at bootup, while enabling C-states on an SMP system.

2007-06-21posix-timers: Prevent softirq starvation by small intervals and SIG_IGNThomas Gleixner
posix-timers which deliver an ignored signal are currently rearmed in the timer softirq: This is necessary because the timer needs to be delivered again when SIG_IGN is removed. This is not a problem, when the interval is reasonable. With high resolution timers enabled one might arm a posix timer with a very small interval and ignore the signal. This might lead to a softirq starvation when the interval is so small that the timer is requeued onto the softirq pending list right away. This problem was pointed out by Jan Kiszka. Thanks Jan ! The correct solution would be to stop the timer, when the signal is ignored and rearm it when SIG_IGN is removed. Unfortunately this requires modification in sigaction and involves non trivial sighand locking. It's too late in the release cycle for such a change. For now we just keep the timer running and enforce that the timer only fires every jiffie. This does not break anything as we keep the overrun counter correct. It adds a little inaccuracy to the timer_gettime() interface, but... The more complex change is necessary anyway to fix another short coming of the current implementation, which I discovered while looking at this problem: A pending signal is discarded when SIG_IGN is set. In case that a posixtimer signal is pending then it is discarded as well, but when SIG_IGN is removed later nothing rearms the timer. This is not new, it's that way since posix timers have been merged. So nothing to worry about right now. I have a working solution to fix all of this, but the impact is too large for both stable and 2.6.22. I'm going to send it out for review in the next days. This should go into 2.6.21.stable as well.

2007-06-21page_mapping must avoid slub pagesHugh Dickins
Nicolas Ferre reports oops from flush_dcache_page() on ARM when using SLUB: which reuses page->mapping as page->slab. The page_mapping() function, used by ARM and PA-RISC flush_dcache_page() implementations, must not confuse SLUB pages with those which have page->mapping set.

2007-06-21[PARISC] unwinder improvementsRandolph Chung
Add special-case handling for "handle_interruption" so that we can rewind past the interruption. This is useful for seeing what caused a BUG() or WARN_ON(); otherwise the unwind stops at the interruption.

Function expand_upwards() did not guarded against wrapping around to address 0. This fixes the adjtimex02 testcase from the Linux Test Project on a 32bit PARISC kernel.

2007-06-21IB/mlx4: Correct max_srq_wr returned from mlx4_ib_query_device()Jack Morgenstein
We need to keep a spare entry in the SRQ so that there always is a next WQE available when posting receives (so that we can tell the difference between a full queue and an empty queue). So subtract 1 from the value HW gives us before reporting the limit on SRQ entries to consumers. Found by Mellanox QA.

2007-06-21IPoIB/cm: Fix interoperability when MTU doesn't matchMichael S. Tsirkin
IPoIB connected mode currently rejects a connection request unless the supported MTU is >= the local netdevice MTU. This breaks interoperability with implementations that might have tweaked IPOIB_CM_MTU, and there's real no longer a reason to do so: this test is just a leftover from when we did not tweak MTU per-connection. Fix this by making the test as permissive as possible. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@dev.mellanox.co.il> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2007-06-21IPoIB/cm: Initialize RX before moving QP to RTRMichael S. Tsirkin
Fix a crasher bug in IPoIB CM: once a QP is in the RTR state, a receive completion (or even an asynchronous error) might be observed on this QP, so we have to initialize all of our receive data structures before moving to the RTR state. As an optimization (since modify_qp might take a long time), the jiffies update done when moving RX to the passive_ids list is also left in place to reduce the chance of the RX being misdetected as stale.
