We use the fixmap for accessing pci config space in pci_mmcfg_read/write().
The problem is in pci_exp_set_dev_base(). It is caching a last
accessed address to avoid calling set_fixmap_nocache() whenever
pci_mmcfg_read/write() is used.
static inline void pci_exp_set_dev_base(int bus, int devfn)
{
u32 dev_base = base | (bus << 20) | (devfn << 12);
if (dev_base != mmcfg_last_accessed_device) {
mmcfg_last_accessed_device = dev_base;
set_fixmap_nocache(FIX_PCIE_MCFG, dev_base);
}
}
cpu0 cpu1
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
pci_mmcfg_read("device-A")
pci_exp_set_dev_base()
set_fixmap_nocache()
pci_mmcfg_read("device-B")
pci_exp_set_dev_base()
set_fixmap_nocache()
pci_mmcfg_read("device-B")
pci_exp_set_dev_base()
/* doesn't flush tlb */
But if cpus accessed the above order, the second pci_mmcfg_read() on
cpu0 doesn't flush the TLB, because "mmcfg_last_accessed_device" is
device-B. So, second pci_mmcfg_read() on cpu0 accesses a device-A via
a previous TLB cache. This problem became the cause of several strange
behavior.
This patches fixes this situation by adds "mmcfg_last_accessed_cpu" check.
[ Alternatively, we could make a per-cpu mapping area or something. Not
that it's probably worth it, but if we wanted to avoid all locking and
instead just disable preemption, that would be the way to go. --Linus ]

APM idle code
Fernando Lopez-Lezcano reported frequent scheduling latencies and audio
xruns starting at the 2.6.18-rt kernel, and those problems persisted all
until current -rt kernels. The latencies were serious and unjustified by
system load, often in the milliseconds range.
After a patient and heroic multi-month effort of Fernando, where he
tested dozens of kernels, tried various configs, boot options,
test-patches of mine and provided latency traces of those incidents, the
following 'smoking gun' trace was captured by him:
_------=> CPU#
/ _-----=> irqs-off
| / _----=> need-resched
|| / _---=> hardirq/softirq
||| / _--=> preempt-depth
|||| /

<...>-5856 0D..1 619us : trace_stop_sched_switched <<...>-5856> (37 0)
what is visible in this trace is that CPU#1 ran try_to_wake_up() for
PID:5856, it placed PID:5856 on CPU#0's runqueue and ran resched_task()
for CPU#0. But it decided to not send an IPI that no CPU - due to
TS_POLLING. But CPU#0 never woke up after its NEED_RESCHED bit was set,
and only rescheduled to PID:5856 upon the next lapic timer IRQ. The
result was a 600+ usecs latency and a missed wakeup!
the bug turned out to be an idle-wakeup bug introduced into the mainline
kernel this summer via an optimization in the x86_64 tree:
commit 495ab9c045e1b0e5c82951b762257fe1c9d81564
Author: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
Date: Mon Jun 26 13:59:11 2006 +0200
[PATCH] i386/x86-64/ia64: Move polling flag into thread_info_status
During some profiling I noticed that default_idle causes a lot of
memory traffic. I think that is caused by the atomic operations
to clear/set the polling flag in thread_info. There is actually
no reason to make this atomic - only the idle thread does it
to itself, other CPUs only read it. So I moved it into ti->status.
the problem is this type of change:
if (!hlt_counter && boot_cpu_data.hlt_works_ok) {
- clear_thread_flag(TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG);
+ current_thread_info()->status &= ~TS_POLLING;
smp_mb__after_clear_bit();
while (!need_resched()) {
local_irq_disable();
this changes clear_thread_flag() to an explicit clearing of TS_POLLING.
clear_thread_flag() is defined as:
clear_bit(flag, &ti->flags);
and clear_bit() is a LOCK-ed atomic instruction on all x86 platforms:
static inline void clear_bit(int nr, volatile unsigned long * addr)
{
__asm__ __volatile__( LOCK_PREFIX
"btrl %1,%0"
hence smp_mb__after_clear_bit() is defined as a simple compile barrier:
#define smp_mb__after_clear_bit() barrier()
but the explicit TS_POLLING clearing introduced by the patch:
+ current_thread_info()->status &= ~TS_POLLING;
is not an atomic op! So the clearing of the TS_POLLING bit is freely
reorderable with the reading of the NEED_RESCHED bit - and both now
reside in different memory addresses.
CPU idle wakeup very much depends on ordered memory ops, the clearing of
the TS_POLLING flag must always be done before we test need_resched()
and hit the idle instruction(s). [Symmetrically, the wakeup code needs
to set NEED_RESCHED before it tests the TS_POLLING flag, so memory
ordering is paramount.]
Fernando's dual-core Athlon64 system has a sufficiently advanced memory
ordering model so that it triggered this scenario very often.
( And it also turned out that the reason why these latencies never
triggered on my testsystems is that i routinely use idle=poll, which
was the only idle variant not affected by this bug. )
The fix is to change the smp_mb__after_clear_bit() to an smp_mb(), to
act as an absolute barrier between the TS_POLLING write and the
NEED_RESCHED read. This affects almost all idling methods (default,
ACPI, APM), on all 3 x86 architectures: i386, x86_64, ia64.

The PDA patches introduced a bug in ptrace: it reads eflags from the wrong
place on the target's stack, but writes it back to the correct place. The
result is a corrupted eflags, which is most visible when it turns interrupts
off unexpectedly.
This patch fixes this by making the ptrace code a little less fragile. It
changes [gs]et_stack_long to take a straightforward byte offset into struct
pt_regs, rather than requiring all callers to do a sizeof(struct pt_regs)
offset adjustment. This means that the eflag's offset (EFL_OFFSET) on the
target stack can be simply computed with offsetof().

moved to arch/i386/kernel/e820.c in 2.6.20-rc1. And same name function is
defined in driver/base/memory.c too. So, it becomes cause of compile error
of duplicate definition if memory hotplug option is on.

This patch is designed to fix:
- Disk eating corruptor on KT7 after resume from RAM
- VIA IRQ handling
- VIA fixups for bus lockups after resume from RAM
The core of this is to add a table of resume fixups run at resume time.
We need to do this for a variety of boards and features, but particularly
we need to do this to get various critical VIA fixups done on resume.
The second part of the problem is to handle VIA IRQ number rules which
are a bit odd and need special handling for PIC interrupts. Various
patches broke various boxes and while this one may not be perfect
(hopefully it is) it ensures the workaround is applied to the right
devices only.
From: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
Now that PCI quirks are replayed on software resume, we can safely
re-enable the Asus SMBus unhiding quirk even when software suspend support
is enabled.

On some systems there could be bits set in the upper half of
the control value provided by the _PSS object. These bits are
only relevant for cpufreq drivers that use IO ports which are not
currently supported by the speedstep-centrino driver. The current
MSR oriented code assumes that upper bits are not set and thus
fails to work correctly when they are. e.g. the control and status
value equality check failed on the IBM x3650 even though the ACPI
spec allows inequality.

2.6.19 stopped booting (or booted based on build/config) on our x86_64
systems due to a bug introduced in 2.6.19. check_nmi_watchdog schedules an
IPI on all cpus to busy wait on a flag, but fails to set the busywait
flag if NMI functionality is disabled. This causes the secondary cpus
to spin in an endless loop, causing the kernel bootup to hang.
Depending upon the build, the busywait flag got overwritten (stack variable)
and caused the kernel to bootup on certain builds. Following patch fixes
the bug by setting the busywait flag before returning from check_nmi_watchdog.
I guess using a stack variable is not good here as the calling function could
potentially return while the busy wait loop is still spinning on the flag.

This facility provides three entry points:
ilog2() Log base 2 of unsigned long
ilog2_u32() Log base 2 of u32
ilog2_u64() Log base 2 of u64
These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data:
int do_something(long q)
{
...;
y = ilog2(x)
...;
}
Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values:
unsigned n = ilog2(27);
When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error:
initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of
something not reducible to a constant. They treat negative numbers as
unsigned.
When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits
them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on
x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.

This makes i386 use the generic BUG machinery. There are no functional
changes from the old i386 implementation.
The main advantage in using the generic BUG machinery for i386 is that the
inlined overhead of BUG is just the ud2a instruction; the file+line(+function)
information are no longer inlined into the instruction stream. This reduces
cache pollution, and makes disassembly work properly.

The elf note saving code is currently duplicated over several
architectures. This cleanup patch simply adds code to a common file and
then replaces the arch-specific code with calls to the newly added code.
The only drawback with this approach is that s390 doesn't fully support
kexec-on-panic which for that arch leads to introduction of unused code.

There was lots of #ifdef noise in the kernel due to hotcpu_notifier(fn,
prio) not correctly marking 'fn' as used in the !HOTPLUG_CPU case, and thus
generating compiler warnings of unused symbols, hence forcing people to add
#ifdefs.
the compiler can skip truly unused functions just fine:
text data bss dec hex filename

1624412 728710 3674856 6027978 5bfaca vmlinux.after

smp_call_function_single() can deadlock if the caller disabled local
interrupts (the target CPU could be spinning on call_lock). Check for that.
Why on earth do these functions use spin_lock_bh()??

When we are unregistering a kprobe-booster, we can't release its
instruction buffer immediately on the preemptive kernel, because some
processes might be preempted on the buffer. The freeze_processes() and
thaw_processes() functions can clean most of processes up from the buffer.
There are still some non-frozen threads who have the PF_NOFREEZE flag. If
those threads are sleeping (not preempted) at the known place outside the
buffer, we can ensure safety of freeing.
However, the processing of this check routine takes a long time. So, this
patch introduces the garbage collection mechanism of insn_slot. It also
introduces the "dirty" flag to free_insn_slot because of efficiency.
The "clean" instruction slots (dirty flag is cleared) are released
immediately. But the "dirty" slots which are used by boosted kprobes, are
marked as garbages. collect_garbage_slots() will be invoked to release
"dirty" slots if there are more than INSNS_PER_PAGE garbage slots or if
there are no unused slots.

Make swsusp support i386 systems with PAE or without PSE.

it.

Replace all uses of kmem_cache_t with struct kmem_cache.
The patch was generated using the following script:
#!/bin/sh
#
# Replace one string by another in all the kernel sources.
#
set -e
for file in `find * -name "*.c" -o -name "*.h"|xargs grep -l $1`; do
quilt add $file
sed -e "1,\$s/$1/$2/g" $file >/tmp/$$
mv /tmp/$$ $file
quilt refresh
done
The script was run like this
sh replace kmem_cache_t "struct kmem_cache"
