2008-02-29xen: mask out SEP from CPUIDJeremy Fitzhardinge
Fix 32-on-64 pvops kernel: we don't want userspace using syscall/sysenter, even if the hypervisor supports it, so mask it out from CPUID. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@xensource.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-02-29x86: disable BTS ptrace extensions for nowIngo Molnar
revert the BTS ptrace extension for now. based on general objections from Roland McGrath: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/21/323 we'll let the BTS functionality cook some more and re-enable it in v2.6.26. We'll leave the dead code around to help the development of this code. (X86_BTS is not defined at the moment) Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-02-29x86: CPA: avoid split of alias mappingsThomas Gleixner
avoid over-eager large page splitup. When the target area needs to be split or is split already (ioremap) then the current code enforces the split of large mappings in the alias regions even if we could avoid it. Use a separate variable processed in the cpa_data structure to carry the number of pages which have been processed instead of reusing the numpages variable. This keeps numpages intact and gives the alias code a chance to keep large mappings intact. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-02-29x86 vdso: fix build locale dependencyRoland McGrath
Priit Laes discovered that the sed command processing nm output was sensitive to locale settings. This was addressed in commit 03994f01e8b72b3d01fd3d09d1cc7c9f421a727c by using [:alnum:] in place of [a-zA-Z0-9]. But that solution too is locale-dependent and may not always match the identifiers it needs to. The better fix is just to run sed et al with a fixed locale setting in all builds.

The x86 TLS cleanup in commit efd1ca52d04d2f6df337a3332cee56cd60e6d4c4 made the sys_set_thread_area and sys_get_thread_area functions ripe for tail call optimization.

2008-02-27avr32: Fix OCD refcounting bugHaavard Skinnemoen
Iff the parent has TIF_DEBUG set, _and_ clone_flags includes CLONE_PTRACE we should set the TIF_DEBUG flag for the child and increment the ocd refcount. Otherwise, the TIF_DEBUG flag must be unset. Currently, the child inherits TIF_DEBUG from the parent before copy_thread is called, so TIF_DEBUG may be already be set before we determine whether the child is supposed to inherit debugging capabilities from the parent or not. This means that ocd_enable() won't increment the refcount, because TIF_DEBUG is already set, and that TIF_DEBUG will be set for processes that aren't being debugged. This leads to a refcounting asymmetry, which may show up as ------------[ cut here ]------------ Badness at arch/avr32/kernel/ocd.c:73 PC is at ocd_disable+0x34/0x60 LR is at put_lock_stats+0xa/0x20 as reported by David Brownell.

2008-02-26[SPARC64]: Loosen checks in exception table handling.David S. Miller
Some parts of the kernel now do things like do *_user() accesses while set_fs(KERNEL_DS) that fault on purpose. See, for example, the code added by changeset a0c1e9073ef7428a14309cba010633a6cd6719ea ("futex: runtime enable pi and robust functionality"). That trips up the ASI sanity checking we make in do_kernel_fault(). Just remove it for now. Maybe we can add it back later with an added conditional which looks at the current get_fs() value.

I'm currently adding those printouts back > in the hope of seeing where and when the caps get broken. That turned out to be very illuminating: --- dmesg-2.6.24-git7 2008-02-24 18:01:25.295851000 +0100 +++ dmesg-2.6.24-git8 2008-02-24 18:01:25.530358000 +0100 ...

(The first two lines are printout loops from -git7 forward-ported to -git8, the third line is the same printout loop added just after the xor-with-cleared_cpu_caps[] loop.) Here's how the breakage occurs: 1. arch/x86/kernel/tsc_32.c:tsc_init() sees !cpu_has_tsc, so bails and calls setup_clear_cpu_cap(X86_FEATURE_TSC). 2. include/asm-x86/cpufeature.h:setup_clear_cpu_cap(bit) clears the bit in boot_cpu_data and sets it in cleared_cpu_caps 3. arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:identify_cpu() XORs all caps in with cleared_cpu_caps HOWEVER, at this point c->x86_capability correctly has TSC Off, cleared_cpu_caps has TSC On, so the XOR incorrectly sets TSC to On in c->x86_capability, with disastrous results. The real bug is that clearing bits with XOR only works if the bits are known to be 1 prior to the XOR, and that's not true here. A simple fix is to convert the XOR to AND-NOT instead. The following patch does that, and allows my 486 to boot 2.6.25-rc kernels again. [ mingo@elte.hu: fixed a similar bug in setup_64.c as well. ] The breakage was introduced via commit 7d851c8d3db0.

2008-02-26x86: don't save unreliable stack trace entriesVegard Nossum
Currently, there is no way for print_stack_trace() to determine whether a given stack trace entry was deemed reliable or not, simply because save_stack_trace() does not record this information. (Perhaps needless to say, this makes the saved stack traces A LOT harder to read, and probably with no other benefits, since debugging features that use save_stack_trace() most likely also require frame pointers, etc.) This patch reverts to the old behaviour of only recording the reliable trace entries for saved stack traces.

2008-02-26x86: fix vsyscall wreckageThomas Gleixner
based on a report from Arne Georg Gleditsch about user-space apps misbehaving after toggling /proc/sys/kernel/vsyscall64, a review of the code revealed that the "NOP patching" done there is fundamentally unsafe for a number of reasons: 1) the patching code runs without synchronizing other CPUs 2) it inserts NOPs even if there is no clock source which provides vread 3) when the clock source changes to one without vread we run in exactly the same problem as in #2 4) if nobody toggles the proc entry from 1 to 0 and to 1 again, then the syscall is not patched out as a result it is possible to break user-space via this patching. The only safe thing for now is to remove the patching. This code was broken since v2.6.21.

2008-02-26x86: rename KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE => KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZEIngo Molnar
The KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE constant was mis-named, as we not only map the kernel text but data, bss and init sections as well. That name led me on the wrong path with the KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE regression, because i knew how big of _text_ my images have and i knew about the 40 MB "text" limit so i wrongly thought to be on the safe side of the 40 MB limit with my 29 MB of text, while the total image size was slightly above 40 MB.

2008-02-26x86: fix spontaneous reboot with allyesconfig bzImageIngo Molnar
recently the 64-bit allyesconfig bzImage kernel started spontaneously rebooting during early bootup. after a few fun hours spent with early init debugging, it turns out that we've got this rather annoying limit on the size of the kernel image: #define KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE (40*1024*1024) which limit my vmlinux just happened to pass: text data bss dec hex filename 29703744 4222751 8646224 42572719 2899baf vmlinux 40 MB is 42572719 bytes, so my vmlinux was just 1.5% above this limit :-/ So it happily crashed right in head_64.S, which - as we all know - is the most debuggable code in the whole architecture ;-) So increase the limit to allow an up to 128MB kernel image to be mapped. (should anyone be that crazy or lazy) We have a full 4K of pagetable (level2_kernel_pgt) allocated for these mappings already, so there's no RAM overhead and the limit was rather pointless and arbitrary.

2008-02-26x86: handle BIOSes which terminate e820 with CF=1 and no SMAPH. Peter Anvin
The proper way to terminate the e820 chain is with %ebx == 0 on the last legitimate memory block. However, several BIOSes don't do that and instead return error (CF = 1) when trying to read off the end of the list. For this error return, %eax doesn't necessarily return the SMAP signature -- correctly so, since %ah should contain an error code in this case. To deal with some particularly broken BIOSes, we clear the entire e820 chain if the SMAP signature is missing in the middle, indicating a plain insane e820 implementation. However, we need to make the test for CF = 1 before the SMAP check. This fixes at least one HP laptop (nc6400) for which none of the memory-probing methods (e820, e801, 88) functioned fully according to spec. Signed-off-by: H.

2008-02-26x86/lguest: fix pgdir pmd index calculationAhmed S. Darwish
Hi all, Beginning from commits close to v2.6.25-rc2, running lguest always oopses the host kernel. Oops is at [1]. Bisection led to the following commit: commit 37cc8d7f963ba2deec29c9b68716944516a3244f x86/early_ioremap: don't assume we're using swapper_pg_dir At the early stages of boot, before the kernel pagetable has been fully initialized, a Xen kernel will still be running off the Xen-provided pagetables rather than swapper_pg_dir[]. Therefore, readback cr3 to determine the base of the pagetable rather than assuming swapper_pg_dir[]. static inline pmd_t * __init early_ioremap_pmd(unsigned long addr) { - pgd_t *pgd = &swapper_pg_dir[pgd_index(addr)]; + /* Don't assume we're using swapper_pg_dir at this point */ + pgd_t *base = __va(read_cr3()); + pgd_t *pgd = &base[pgd_index(addr)]; pud_t *pud = pud_offset(pgd, addr); pmd_t *pmd = pmd_offset(pud, addr); Trying to analyze the problem, it seems on the guest side of lguest, %cr3 has a different value from &swapper_pg-dir (which is AFAIK fine on a pravirt guest): Putting some debugging messages in early_ioremap_pmd: /* Appears 3 times */ [ 0.000000] *************************** [ 0.000000] __va(%cr3) = c0000000, &swapper_pg_dir = c02cc000 [ 0.000000] *************************** After 8 hours of debugging and staring on lguest code, I noticed something strange in paravirt_ops->set_pmd hypercall invocation: static void lguest_set_pmd(pmd_t *pmdp, pmd_t pmdval) { *pmdp = pmdval; lazy_hcall(LHCALL_SET_PMD, __pa(pmdp)&PAGE_MASK, (__pa(pmdp)&(PAGE_SIZE-1))/4, 0); } The first hcall parameter is global pgdir which looks fine. The second parameter is the pmd index in the pgdir which is suspectful. AFAIK, calculating the index of pmd does not need a divisoin over four. Removing the division made lguest work fine again . Patch is at [2]. I am not sure why the division over four existed in the first place. It seems bogus, maybe the Xen patch just made the problem appear ?

2008-02-26lguest: include function prototypesHarvey Harrison
Added a declaration to asm-x86/lguest.h and moved the extern arrays there as well. As an alternative to including asm/lguest.h directly, an include could be put in linux/lguest.h Signed-off-by: Harvey Harrison <harvey.harrison@gmail.com> Cc: "rusty@rustcorp.com.au" <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-02-26serial: Move asm-sh/sci.h to linux/serial_sci.h.Paul Mundt
This header is needed on other architectures as well (namely h8300), which currently fails to build without this in place. Rather than duplicating the port definition completely there, just move this to a common location instead. This should get h8300 working again for 2.6.25, in addition to the changes already pushed by Sato-san in -rc2. Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>

2008-02-26sh: Storage class should be before const qualifierTobias Klauser
The C99 specification states in section 6.11.5: The placement of a storage-class specifier other than at the beginning of the declaration specifiers in a declaration is an obsolescent feature. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch> Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>

2008-02-24[SPARC64]: Fix section mismatch from kernel_map_rangeSam Ravnborg
Fix following warnings: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x4f980): Section mismatch in reference from the function kernel_map_range() to the function .init.text:__alloc_bootmem() WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x4f9cc): Section mismatch in reference from the function kernel_map_range() to the function .init.text:__alloc_bootmem() alloc_bootmem() is only used during early init and for any subsequent call to kernel_map_range() the program logic avoid the call. So annotate kernel_map_range() with __ref to tell modpost to ignore the reference to a __init function. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

Fix following warnings: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x4b258): Section mismatch in reference from the function dr_cpu_data() to the function .devinit.text:mdesc_fill_in_cpu_data() WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x4b290): Section mismatch in reference from the function dr_cpu_data() to the function .cpuinit.text:cpu_up() mdesc_fill_in_cpu_data() is only used during early init and for cpu hotplug so the __cpuinit annotation is the correct choice. We have the call chain: dr_cpu_data() => dr_cpu_configure() => mdesc_fill_in_cpu_data() dr_cpu_data() is used only during early init and for cpu hotplug. So annotating them all __cpuinit solves the section mismatch and should be correct. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
