2007-08-15[POWERPC] Fix small race in 44x tlbie functionDavid Gibson
The 440 family of processors don't have a tlbie instruction. So, we implement TLB invalidates by explicitly searching the TLB with tlbsx., then clobbering the relevant entry, if any. Unfortunately the PID for the search needs to be stored in the MMUCR register, which is also used by the TLB miss handler. Interrupts were enabled in _tlbie(), so an interrupt between loading the MMUCR and the tlbsx could cause incorrect search results, and thus a failure to invalide TLB entries which needed to be invalidated. This fixes the problem in both arch/ppc and arch/powerpc by inhibiting interrupts (even critical and debug interrupts) across the relevant instructions.

2007-08-14[SPARC32]: Remove superfluous 'kernel_end' alignment on sun4c.Mark Fortescue
In sun4c_init_clean_mmu(), aligning 'kernel_end' using SUN4C_REAL_PGDIR_ALIGN() is unnecessary since the caller does this already. In sun4c_paging_init(), 4 page sizes of "fluff" were added to the address of &end. This was necessary a long time ago when sparc32 would allocate some early data structures by carving out memory chunks after &end but that no longer occurs.

2007-08-14[x86 setup] Don't use EDD to get the MBR signatureH. Peter Anvin
At least one machine has been identified in the field which advertises EDD for all drives but locks up if one attempts an extended read from a non-primary drive. The MBR is always at CHS 0-0-1, so there is no reason to use an extended read, other than the possibility that the BIOS cannot handle it. Although this might break as many machines as it fixes (a small number either way), the current state is a regression but the reverse is not. Therefore revert to the previous state of not using extended read. Quite probably the Right Thing to do is to read using plain (CHS) read and extended read on failure, but that change would definitely have to go through -mm first. Signed-off-by: H.

2007-08-13[IA64] disable irq's and check need_resched before safe_haltDimitri Sivanich
While sending interrupts to a cpu to repeatedly wake a thread, on occasion that thread will take a full timer tick cycle (4002 usec in my case) to wakeup. The problem concerns a race condition in the code around the safe_halt() call in the default_idle() routine. Setting 'nohalt' on the kernel command line causes the long wakeups to disappear. void default_idle (void) { local_irq_enable(); while (!need_resched()) { --> if (can_do_pal_halt) --> safe_halt(); else A timer tick could arrive between the check for !need_resched and the actual call to safe_halt() (which does a pal call to PAL_HALT_LIGHT). By the time the timer tick completes, a thread that might now need to run could get held up for as long as a timer tick waiting for the halted cpu. I'm proposing that we disable irq's and check need_resched again before calling safe_halt(). Does anyone see any problem with this approach?

2007-08-12Do not replace whole memcpy in apply alternativesPetr Vandrovec
apply_alternatives uses memcpy() to apply alternatives. Which has the unfortunate effect that while applying memcpy alternative to memcpy itself it tries to overwrite itself with nops - which causes #UD fault as it overwrites half of an instruction in copy loop, and from this point on only possible outcome is triplefault and reboot. So let's overwrite only first two instructions of memcpy - as long as the main memcpy loop is not in first two bytes it will work fine.

2007-08-11i386: Fix double fault handlerChuck Ebbert
The new percpu code has apparently broken the doublefault handler when CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK is set. Doublefault is handled by a hardware task, making the check SPIN_BUG_ON(lock->owner == current, lock, "recursion"); fault because it uses the FS register to access the percpu data for current, and that register is zero in the new TSS. (The trace I saw was on 2.6.20 where it was GS, but it looks like this will still happen with FS on 2.6.22.) Initializing FS in the doublefault_tss should fix it.

2007-08-11i386: Make patching more robust, fix paravirt issueAndi Kleen
Commit 19d36ccdc34f5ed444f8a6af0cbfdb6790eb1177 "x86: Fix alternatives and kprobes to remap write-protected kernel text" uses code which is being patched for patching. In particular, paravirt_ops does patching in two stages: first it calls paravirt_ops.patch, then it fills any remaining instructions with nop_out(). nop_out calls text_poke() which calls lookup_address() which calls pgd_val() (aka paravirt_ops.pgd_val): that call site is one of the places we patch. If we always do patching as one single call to text_poke(), we only need make sure we're not patching the memcpy in text_poke itself. This means the prototype to paravirt_ops.patch needs to change, to marshal the new code into a buffer rather than patching in place as it does now. It also means all patching goes through text_poke(), which is known to be safe (apply_alternatives is also changed to make a single patch). AK: fix compilation on x86-64 (bad rusty!)

2007-08-11finish i386 and x86-64 sysdata conversionMuli Ben-Yehuda
This patch finishes the i386 and x86-64 ->sysdata conversion and hopefully also fixes Riku's and Andy's observed bugs. It is based on Yinghai Lu's and Andy Whitcroft's patches (thanks!) with some changes: - introduce pci_scan_bus_with_sysdata() and use it instead of pci_scan_bus() where appropriate. pci_scan_bus_with_sysdata() will allocate the sysdata structure and then call pci_scan_bus(). - always allocate pci_sysdata dynamically. The whole point of this sysdata work is to make it easy to do root-bus specific things (e.g., support PCI domains and IOMMU's). I dislike using a default struct pci_sysdata in some places and a dynamically allocated pci_sysdata elsewhere - the potential for someone indavertantly changing the default structure is too high. - this patch only makes the minimal changes necessary, i.e., the NUMA node is always initialized to -1. Patches to do the right thing with regards to the NUMA node can build on top of this (either add a 'node' parameter to pci_scan_bus_with_sysdata() or just update the node when it becomes known). The patch was compile tested with various configurations (e.g., NUMAQ, VISWS) and run-time tested on i386 and x86-64. Unfortunately none of my machines exhibited the bugs so caveat emptor. Andy, could you please see if this fixes the NUMA issues you've seen? Riku, does this fix "pci=noacpi" on your laptop?

2007-08-11x86_64: fix HPET init raceRobin Holt
I have had four seperate system lockups attributable to this exact problem in two days of testing. Instead of trying to handle all the weird end cases and wrap, how about changing it to look for exactly what we appear to want. The following patch removes a couple races in setup_APIC_timer. One occurs when the HPET advances the COUNTER past the T0_CMP value between the time the T0_CMP was originally read and when COUNTER is read. This results in a delay waiting for the counter to wrap. The other results from the counter wrapping. This change takes a snapshot of T0_CMP at the beginning of the loop and simply loops until T0_CMP has changed (a tick has happened). <later> I have one small concern about the patch. I am not sure it meets the intent as well as it should. I think we are trying to match APIC timer interrupts up with the hpet counter increment. The event which appears to be disturbing this loop in our test environment is the NMI watchdog. What we believe has been happening with the existing code is the setup_APIC_timer loop has read the CMP value, and the NMI watchdog code fires for the first time. This results in a series of icache miss slowdowns and by the time we get back to things it has wrapped. I think this code is trying to get the CMP as close to the counter value as possible. If that is the intent, maybe we should really be testing against a "window" around the CMP. Something like COUNTER = CMP+/2. It appears COUNTER should get advanced every 89nSec (IIRC). The above seems like an unreasonably small window, but may be necessary. Without documentation, I am not sure of the original intent with this code. In summary, this code fixes my boot hangs, but since I am not certain of the intent of the existing code, I am not certain this has not introduced new bugs or unexpected behaviors.

2007-08-10[POWERPC] Fix size check for hugetlbfsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
My "slices" address space management code that was added in the 2.6.22 implementation of get_unmapped_area() doesn't properly check that the size is a multiple of the requested page size. This allows userland to create VMAs that aren't a multiple of the huge page size with hugetlbfs (since hugetlbfs entirely relies on get_unmapped_area() to do that checking) which leads to a kernel BUG() when such areas are torn down.

2007-08-10[POWERPC] Fix initialization and usage of dma_maskBenjamin Herrenschmidt
powerpc has a couple of bugs in the usage of dma_masks that tend to break when drivers explicitly try to set a 32-bit mask for example. First, the code that generates the pci devices from the OF device-tree doesn't initialize the mask properly, then our implementation of set_dma_mask() was trying to validate the -previous- mask value, not the one passed in as an argument. This fixes these problems. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
