2008-10-28[S390] Fix sysdev class file creation.Heiko Carstens
Use sysdev_class_create_file() to create create sysdev class attributes instead of sysfs_create_file(). Using sysfs_create_file() wasn't a very good idea since the show and store functions have a different amount of parameters for sysfs files and sysdev class files. In particular the pointer to the buffer is the last argument and therefore accesses to random memory regions happened. Still worked surprisingly well until we got a kernel panic.

Nothing arch specific in get/settimeofday. The details of the timeval conversion varied a little from arch to arch, but all with the same results. Also add an extern declaration for sys_tz to linux/time.h because externs in .c files are fowned upon. I'll kill the externs in various other files in a sparate patch.

2008-10-16compat: move cp_compat_stat to common codeChristoph Hellwig
struct stat / compat_stat is the same on all architectures, so cp_compat_stat should be, too. Turns out it is, except that various architectures have slightly and some high2lowuid/high2lowgid or the direct assignment instead of the SET_UID/SET_GID that expands to the correct one anyway. This patch replaces the arch-specific cp_compat_stat implementations with a common one based on the x86-64 one. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Acked-by: David S.

2008-10-03[S390] nohz: Fix __udelay.Heiko Carstens
This fixes a regression that came with 934b2857cc576ae53c92a66e63fce7ddcfa74691 ("[S390] nohz/sclp: disable timer on synchronous waits."). If udelay() gets called from a disabled context it sets the clock comparator to a value where it expects the next interrupt. When the interrupt happens the clock comparator gets not reset and therefore the interrupt condition doesn't get cleared. The result is an endless timer interrupt loop. In addition this patch fixes also the following: rcutorture reveals that our __udelay implementation is still buggy, since it might schedule tasklets, but prevents their execution: NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 42 NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 02 NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 142 NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 02 To fix this we make sure that only the clock comparator interrupt is enabled when the enabled wait psw is loaded. Also no code gets called anymore which might schedule tasklets. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
2008-09-09[S390] CVE-2008-1514: prevent ptrace padding area read/write in 31-bit modeJarod Wilson
When running a 31-bit ptrace, on either an s390 or s390x kernel, reads and writes into a padding area in struct user_regs_struct32 will result in a kernel panic. This is also known as CVE-2008-1514. Test case available here: http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/tests/ptrace-tests/tests/user-area-padding.c?cvsroot=systemtap Steps to reproduce: 1) wget the above 2) gcc -o user-area-padding-31bit user-area-padding.c -Wall -ggdb2 -D_GNU_SOURCE -m31 3) ./user-area-padding-31bit <panic> Test status ----------- Without patch, both s390 and s390x kernels panic. With patch, the test case, as well as the gdb testsuite, pass without incident, padding area reads returning zero, writes ignored. Nb: original version returned -EINVAL on write attempts, which broke the gdb test and made the test case slightly unhappy, Jan Kratochvil suggested the change to return 0 on write attempts.

2008-09-08kernel/cpu.c: create a CPU_STARTING cpu_chain notifierManfred Spraul
Right now, there is no notifier that is called on a new cpu, before the new cpu begins processing interrupts/softirqs. Various kernel function would need that notification, e.g. kvm works around by calling smp_call_function_single(), rcu polls cpu_online_map. The patch adds a CPU_STARTING notification. It also adds a helper function that sends the message to all cpu_chain handlers. Tested on x86-64. All other archs are untested. Especially on sparc, I'm not sure if I got it right.

2008-07-25kprobes: improve kretprobe scalability with hashed lockingSrinivasa D S
Currently list of kretprobe instances are stored in kretprobe object (as used_instances,free_instances) and in kretprobe hash table. We have one global kretprobe lock to serialise the access to these lists. This causes only one kretprobe handler to execute at a time. Hence affects system performance, particularly on SMP systems and when return probe is set on lot of functions (like on all systemcalls). Solution proposed here gives fine-grain locks that performs better on SMP system compared to present kretprobe implementation. Solution: 1) Instead of having one global lock to protect kretprobe instances present in kretprobe object and kretprobe hash table. We will have two locks, one lock for protecting kretprobe hash table and another lock for kretporbe object. 2) We hold lock present in kretprobe object while we modify kretprobe instance in kretprobe object and we hold per-hash-list lock while modifying kretprobe instances present in that hash list. To prevent deadlock, we never grab a per-hash-list lock while holding a kretprobe lock. 3) We can remove used_instances from struct kretprobe, as we can track used instances of kretprobe instances using kretprobe hash table.

This allow to dynamically generate attributes and share show/store functions between attributes. Right now most attributes are generated by special macros and lots of duplicated code. With the attribute passed it's instead possible to attach some data to the attribute and then use that in shared low level functions to do different things. I need this for the dynamically generated bank attributes in the x86 machine check code, but it'll allow some further cleanups. I converted all users in tree to the new show/store prototype.

The idle notifier chain consists of at most one element. So there's no point in having a notifier chain. Remove it and directly call the function. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

2008-07-14[S390] initrd vs bss section clearing.Heiko Carstens
In case the initrd is located within the bss section it will be overwritten when the section is cleared. To prevent this just move the initrd right behind the bss section if it starts within the section. The current code already moves the initrd if the bootmem allocator bitmap would overwrite it. With this patch we should be safe against initrd corruptions.

2008-06-10[S390] Fix build failure in __cpu_up()Segher Boessenkool
The first argument to __ctl_store() should be the array to store stuff in, not just the first element of that array. With the current code in __cpu_up(), mainline GCC dies with an internal compiler error. I didn't diagnose that further, but just fixed the kernel bug.

2008-05-30[S390] Fix section mismatch warnings.Heiko Carstens
This fixes the last remaining section mismatch warnings in s390 architecture code. It reveals also a real bug introduced by... me with git commit 2069e978d5a6e7b45d58027e3de7f879b8c5e488 ("[S390] sparsemem vmemmap: initialize memmap.") Calling the generic vmemmap_alloc_block() function to get initialized memory is a nice idea, however that function is __meminit annotated and therefore the function might be gone if we try to call it later. This can happen if a DCSS segment gets added. So basically revert the patch and clear the memmap explicitly to fix the original bug.
