2007-10-19Use extended crashkernel command line on x86_64Bernhard Walle
This patch removes the crashkernel parsing from arch/x86_64/kernel/machine_kexec.c and calls the generic function, introduced in the last patch, in setup_bootmem_allocator(). This is necessary because the amount of System RAM must be known in this function now because of the new syntax.

2007-10-19Use helpers to obtain task pid in printks (arch code)Alexey Dobriyan
One of the easiest things to isolate is the pid printed in kernel log. There was a patch, that made this for arch-independent code, this one makes so for arch/xxx files. It took some time to cross-compile it, but hopefully these are all the printks in arch code.

2007-10-19pid namespaces: define is_global_init() and is_container_init()Serge E. Hallyn
is_init() is an ambiguous name for the pid==1 check. Split it into is_global_init() and is_container_init(). A cgroup init has it's tsk->pid == 1. A global init also has it's tsk->pid == 1 and it's active pid namespace is the init_pid_ns. But rather than check the active pid namespace, compare the task structure with 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper', which is initialized during boot to the /sbin/init process and never changes. Changelog: 2.6.22-rc4-mm2-pidns1: - Use 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper' to determine if a given task is the global init (/sbin/init) process. This would improve performance and remove dependence on the task_pid(). 2.6.21-mm2-pidns2: - [Sukadev Bhattiprolu] Changed is_container_init() calls in {powerpc, ppc,avr32}/traps.c for the _exception() call to is_global_init(). This way, we kill only the cgroup if the cgroup's init has a bug rather than force a kernel panic.

2007-10-19x86: convert cpuinfo_x86 array to a per_cpu arrayMike Travis
cpu_data is currently an array defined using NR_CPUS. This means that we overallocate since we will rarely really use maximum configured cpus. When NR_CPU count is raised to 4096 the size of cpu_data becomes 3,145,728 bytes. These changes were adopted from the sparc64 (and ia64) code. An additional field was added to cpuinfo_x86 to be a non-ambiguous cpu index. This corresponds to the index into a cpumask_t as well as the per_cpu index. It's used in various places like show_cpuinfo(). cpu_data is defined to be the boot_cpu_data structure for the NON-SMP case.

Convert cpu_llc_id from a static array sized by NR_CPUS to a per_cpu variable. This saves sizeof(cpu_llc_id) * NR unused cpus. Access is mostly from startup and CPU HOTPLUG functions.

2007-10-19x86: convert cpu_to_apicid to be a per cpu variableMike Travis
This patch converts the x86_cpu_to_apicid array to be a per cpu variable. This saves sizeof(apicid) * NR unused cpus. Access is mostly from startup and CPU HOTPLUG functions. MP_processor_info() is one of the functions that require access to the x86_cpu_to_apicid array before the per_cpu data area is setup. For this case, a pointer to the __initdata array is initialized in setup_arch() and removed in smp_prepare_cpus() after the per_cpu data area is initialized. A second change is included to change the initial array value of ARCH i386 from 0xff to BAD_APICID to be consistent with ARCH x86_64.

2007-10-19x86, vsyscall: fix the oops crash with __pa_vsymbol()Siddha, Suresh B
Appended patch fixes an oops while changing the vsyscall sysctl. I am sure no one tested this code before integrating into mainline :( BTW, using ioremap() in vsyscall_sysctl_change() to get the virtual address of a kernel symbol sounds like an over kill.. I wonder if we can define a simple __va_vsymbol() which will return directly the kernel direct mapping. comments in the code which says gcc has trouble with __va(__pa()) sounds bogus to me. __pa() on a vsyscall address will not work anyhow :( And also, the whole nop out syscall in vsyscall page infrastructure (vsyscall_sysctl_change()) is added to make some attacks difficult, and yet I don't see this nop out being done by default. This area requires more cleanups? Fix an oops with __pa_vsymbol(). VSYSCALL_FIRST_PAGE is a fixmap index. We want the starting virtual address of the vsyscall page and not the index.

2007-10-19x86: fix global_flush_tlb() bugIngo Molnar
While we were reviewing pageattr_32/64.c for unification, Thomas Gleixner noticed the following serious SMP bug in global_flush_tlb(): down_read(&init_mm.mmap_sem); list_replace_init(&deferred_pages, &l); up_read(&init_mm.mmap_sem); this is SMP-unsafe because list_replace_init() done on two CPUs in parallel can corrupt the list. This bug has been introduced about a year ago in the 64-bit tree: commit ea7322decb974a4a3e804f96a0201e893ff88ce3 Author: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Date: Thu Dec 7 02:14:05 2006 +0100 [PATCH] x86-64: Speed and clean up cache flushing in change_page_attr down_read(&init_mm.mmap_sem); - dpage = xchg(&deferred_pages, NULL); + list_replace_init(&deferred_pages, &l); up_read(&init_mm.mmap_sem); the xchg() based version was SMP-safe, but list_replace_init() is not. So this "cleanup" introduced a nasty bug. why this bug never become prominent is a mystery - it can probably be explained with the (still) relative obscurity of the x86_64 architecture. the safe fix for now is to write-lock init_mm.mmap_sem.

2007-10-18cpu hotplug: intel_cacheinfo: fix cpu hotplug error handlingAkinobu Mita
- Fix resource leakage in error case within detect_cache_attributes() - Don't register hotcpu notifier when cache_add_dev() returns error - Introduce cache_dev_map cpumask to track whether cache interface for CPU is successfully added by cache_add_dev() or not. cache_add_dev() may fail with out of memory error. In order to avoid cache_remove_dev() with that uninitialized cache interface when CPU_DEAD event is delivered we need to have the cache_dev_map cpumask. (We cannot change cache_add_dev() from CPU_ONLINE event handler to CPU_UP_PREPARE event handler. Because cache_add_dev() needs to do cpuid and store the results with its CPU online.)

2007-10-18Fix discrepancy between VDSO based gettimeofday() and sys_gettimeofday().Tony Breeds
On platforms that copy sys_tz into the vdso (currently only x86_64, soon to include powerpc), it is possible for the vdso to get out of sync if a user calls (admittedly unusual) settimeofday(NULL, ptr). This patch adds a hook for architectures that set CONFIG_GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL to ensure when sys_tz is updated they can also updatee their copy in the vdso.

2007-10-18Hibernation: Use temporary page tables for kernel text mapping on x86_64Rafael J. Wysocki
Use temporary page tables for the kernel text mapping during hibernation restore on x86_64. Without the patch, the original boot kernel's page tables that represent the kernel text mapping are used while the core of the image kernel is being restored. However, in principle, if the boot kernel is not identical to the image kernel, the location of these page tables in the image kernel need not be the same, so we should create a safe copy of the kernel text mapping prior to restoring the core of the image kernel.

2007-10-18Hibernation: Pass CR3 in the image header on x86_64Rafael J. Wysocki
Since we already pass the address of restore_registers() in the image header, we can also pass the value of the CR3 register from before the hibernation in the same way. This will allow us to avoid using init_level4_pgt page tables during the restore. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2007-10-18Hibernation: Arbitrary boot kernel support on x86_64Rafael J. Wysocki
Make it possible to restore a hibernation image on x86_64 with the help of a kernel different from the one in the image. The idea is to split the core restoration code into two separate parts and to place each of them in a different page.  The first part belongs to the boot kernel and is executed as the last step of the image kernel's memory restoration procedure.  Before being executed, it is relocated to a safe page that won't be overwritten while copying the image kernel pages. The final operation performed by it is a jump to the second part of the core restoration code that belongs to the image kernel and has just been restored. This code makes the CPU switch to the image kernel's page tables and restores the state of general purpose registers (including the stack pointer) from before the hibernation. The main issue with this idea is that in order to jump to the second part of the core restoration code the boot kernel needs to know its address.  However, this address may be passed to it in the image header.  Namely, the part of the image header previously used for checking if the version of the image kernel is correct can be replaced with some architecture specific data that will allow the boot kernel to jump to the right address within the image kernel.  These data should also be used for checking if the image kernel is compatible with the boot kernel (as far as the memory restroration procedure is concerned). It can be done, for example, with the help of a "magic" value that has to be equal in both kernels, so that they can be regarded as compatible. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2007-10-17x86: delete vsyscall files during make cleanSam Ravnborg
make clean failed to delete a few files in x86/kernel. This is because kbuild does not see the correct/full kernel/Makefile. As a workaround until the Makefiles are merged specify the files to be deleted in the common Makefile.
