We've discovered that our AT91SAM9260 board consumed too much power when
returning from a slowclock low-power mode. RAM self-refresh is enabled in
a bootloader in our case, this is how we saw a difference. Estimated ca.
30mA more on 4V battery than the same state before powersaving.
After a small research we found that there seems to be a bogus
sdram_selfrefresh_disable() call at the end of at91_pm_enter() call, which
overwrites the LPR register with uninitialized value. Please find the
suggested patch attached.
This patch fixes correct restoring of LPR register of the Atmel AT91 SDRAM
controller when returning from a power saving mode.

Move the sysdev_suspend/resume from the callee to the callers, with
no real change in semantics, so that we can rework the disabling of
interrupts during suspend/hibernation.
This is based on an earlier patch from Linus.

Right now nobody cares, but the suspend/resume code will eventually want
to suspend device interrupts without suspending the timer, and will
depend on this flag to know.
The modern x86 timer infrastructure uses the local APIC timers and never
shows up as a device interrupt at all, so it isn't affected and doesn't
need any of this.

As acpi_enter_sleep_state can fail, take this into account in
do_suspend_lowlevel and don't return to the do_suspend_lowlevel's
caller. This would break (currently) fpu status and preempt count.
Technically, this means use `call' instead of `jmp' and `jmp' to
the `resume_point' after the `call' (i.e. if
acpi_enter_sleep_state returns=fails). `resume_point' will handle
the restore of fpu and preempt count gracefully.

x86, mce: remove incorrect __cpuinit for mce_cpu_features()
MAINTAINERS: paravirt-ops maintainers update
|
|
Impact: Bug fix on UP
Checkin 6ec68bff3c81e776a455f6aca95c8c5f1d630198:
x86, mce: reinitialize per cpu features on resume
introduced a call to mce_cpu_features() in the resume path, in order
for the MCE machinery to get properly reinitialized after a resume.
However, this function (and its successors) was flagged __cpuinit,
which becomes __init on UP configurations (on SMP suspend/resume
requires CPU hotplug and so this would not be seen.)
Remove the offending __cpuinit annotations for mce_cpu_features() and
its successor functions.

Steven Rostedt found a bug in where in his modified kernel
ftrace was unable to modify the kernel text, due to the PMD
itself having been marked read-only as well in
split_large_page().
The fix, suggested by Linus, is to not try to 'clone' the
reference protection of a huge-page, but to use the standard
(and permissive) page protection bits of KERNPG_TABLE.
The 'cloning' makes sense for the ptes but it's a confused and
incorrect concept at the page table level - because the
pagetable entry is a set of all ptes and hence cannot
'clone' any single protection attribute - the ptes can be any
mixture of protections.
With the permissive KERNPG_TABLE, even if the pte protections
get changed after this point (due to ftrace doing code-patching
or other similar activities like kprobes), the resulting combined
protections will still be correct and the pte's restrictive
(or permissive) protections will control it.
Also update the comment.
This bug was there for a long time but has not caused visible
problems before as it needs a rather large read-only area to
trigger. Steve possibly hacked his kernel with some really
large arrays or so. Anyway, the bug is definitely worth fixing.
[ Huang Ying also experienced problems in this area when writing
the EFI code, but the real bug in split_large_page() was not
realized back then. ]

This reverts commit e7b140365b86aaf94374214c6f4e6decbee2eb0a.
Commit e7b14036 removes the targetted disabled CPU from the
cpu_online_map after calls to migrate_platform_irqs and fixup_irqs.
Paul McKenney states that the reasoning behind the patch was to
prevent irq handlers from running on CPUs marked offline because:
RCU happily ignores CPUs that don't have their bits set in
cpu_online_map, so if there are RCU read-side critical sections
in the irq handlers being run, RCU will ignore them. If the
other CPUs were running, they might sequence through the RCU
state machine, which could result in data structures being
yanked out from under those irq handlers, which in turn could
result in oopses or worse.
Unfortunately, both ia64 functions above look at cpu_online_map to find
a new CPU to migrate interrupts onto. This means we can potentially
migrate an interrupt off ourself back to... ourself. Uh oh.
This causes an oops when we finally try to process pending interrupts on
the CPU we want to disable. The oops results from calling __do_IRQ with
a NULL pt_regs:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference (address 0000000000000040)

I don't like this revert because it is fragile. ia64 is getting lucky
because we seem to only ever process timer interrupts in this path, but
if we ever race with an IPI here, we definitely use RCU and have the
potential of hitting an oops that Paul describes above.
Patching ia64's timer_interrupt() to check for NULL pt_regs is
insufficient though, as we still hit the above oops.
As a short term solution, I do think that this revert is the right
answer. The revert hold up under repeated testing (24+ hour test runs)
with this setup:
- 8-way rx6600
- randomly toggling CPU online/offline state every 2 seconds
- running CPU exercisers, memory hog, disk exercisers, and
network stressors
- average system load around ~160
In the long term, we really need to figure out why we set pt_regs = NULL
in ia64_process_pending_intr(). If it turns out that it is unnecessary
to do so, then we could safely re-introduce e7b14036 (along with some
other logic to be smarter about migrating interrupts).
One final note: x86 also removes the disabled CPU from cpu_online_map
and then re-enables interrupts for 1ms, presumably to handle any pending
interrupts:
arch/x86/kernel/irq_32.c (and irq_64.c):
cpu_disable_common:
[remove cpu from cpu_online_map]
fixup_irqs():
for_each_irq:
[break CPU affinities]
local_irq_enable();
mdelay(1);
local_irq_disable();
So they are doing implicitly what ia64 is doing explicitly.

BTE_MAX_XFER is wrong. It is one greater than the number of cache
lines the BTE is actually able to transfer. If you request a transfer
of exactly BTE_MAX_XFER size, you trip a very cryptic BUG_ON() which
should certainly be made more clear.

What's happening is that the assertion in mm/page_alloc.c:move_freepages()
is triggering:
BUG_ON(page_zone(start_page) != page_zone(end_page));
Once I knew this is what was happening, I added some annotations:
if (unlikely(page_zone(start_page) != page_zone(end_page))) {
printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: Bogus zones: "
"start_page[%p] end_page[%p] zone[%p]\n",
start_page, end_page, zone);
printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: "
"start_zone[%p] end_zone[%p]\n",
page_zone(start_page), page_zone(end_page));
printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: "
"start_pfn[0x%lx] end_pfn[0x%lx]\n",
page_to_pfn(start_page), page_to_pfn(end_page));
printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: "
"start_nid[%d] end_nid[%d]\n",
page_to_nid(start_page), page_to_nid(end_page));
...
And here's what I got:
move_freepages: Bogus zones: start_page[2207d0000] end_page[2207dffc0] zone[fffff8103effcb00]
move_freepages: start_zone[fffff8103effcb00] end_zone[fffff8003fffeb00]
move_freepages: start_pfn[0x81f600] end_pfn[0x81f7ff]
move_freepages: start_nid[1] end_nid[0]
My memory layout on this box is:
[ 0.000000] Zone PFN ranges:
[ 0.000000] Normal 0x00000000 -> 0x0081ff5d
[ 0.000000] Movable zone start PFN for each node
[ 0.000000] early_node_map[8] active PFN ranges
[ 0.000000] 0: 0x00000000 -> 0x00020000
[ 0.000000] 1: 0x00800000 -> 0x0081f7ff
[ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081f800 -> 0x0081fe50
[ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081fed1 -> 0x0081fed8
[ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081feda -> 0x0081fedb
[ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081fedd -> 0x0081fee5

[ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081ff59 -> 0x0081ff5d
So it's a block move in that 0x81f600-->0x81f7ff region which triggers
the problem.
This patch:
Declaration of early_pfn_to_nid() is scattered over per-arch include
files, and it seems it's complicated to know when the declaration is used.
I think it makes fix-for-memmap-init not easy.
This patch moves all declaration to include/linux/mm.h
After this,
if !CONFIG_NODES_POPULATES_NODE_MAP && !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID
-> Use static definition in include/linux/mm.h
else if !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID
-> Use generic definition in mm/page_alloc.c
else
-> per-arch back end function will be called.

Impact: Bug fix
This fixes a long standing bug in the machine check code. On resume the
boot CPU wouldn't get its vendor specific state like thermal handling
reinitialized. This means the boot cpu wouldn't ever get any thermal
events reported again.
Call the respective initialization functions on resume
v2: Remove ancient init because they don't have a resume device anyways.

The GPIO interrupts can be configured as either level triggered or edge
triggered, with a default of level triggered. When an edge triggered
interrupt is requested, the gpio_irq_set_type method is called which
currently switches the given IRQ descriptor between two struct irq_chip
instances: orion_gpio_irq_level_chip and orion_gpio_irq_edge_chip. This
happens via __setup_irq() which also calls irq_chip_set_defaults() to
assign default methods to uninitialized ones. The problem is that
irq_chip_set_defaults() is called before the irq_chip reference is
switched, leaving the new irq_chip (orion_gpio_irq_edge_chip in this
case) with uninitialized methods such as chip->startup() causing a kernel
oops.
Many solutions are possible, such as making irq_chip_set_defaults() global
and calling it from gpio_irq_set_type(), or calling __irq_set_trigger()
before irq_chip_set_defaults() in __setup_irq(). But those require
modifications to the generic IRQ code which might have adverse effect on
other architectures, and that would still be a fragile arrangement.
Manually copying the missing methods from within gpio_irq_set_type()
would be really ugly and it would break again the day new methods with
automatic defaults are added.
A better solution is to have a single irq_chip instance which can deal
with both edge and level triggered interrupts. It is also a good idea
to switch the IRQ handler instead, as the edge IRQ handler allows for
one edge IRQ event to be queued as the IRQ is actually masked only when
that second IRQ is received, at which point the hardware can queue an
additional IRQ event, making edge triggered interrupts a bit more
reliable.

Shows rcu_check_callbacks() being invoked way too often. It should be called
once per jiffy, and here it is called no less than 22 times in about
3.5 milliseconds, meaning one call every 160 microseconds or so.
Why do we need to call rcu_pending() and rcu_check_callbacks() from the
idle loop of 32-bit x86, especially given that no other architecture does
this?
The following patch removes the call to rcu_pending() and
rcu_check_callbacks() from the x86 32-bit idle loop in order to
reduce the softirq load on idle systems.

User space can request hardware and/or software time stamping.
Reporting of the result(s) via a new control message is enabled
separately for each field in the message because some of the
fields may require additional computation and thus cause overhead.
User space can tell the different kinds of time stamps apart
and choose what suits its needs.
When a TX timestamp operation is requested, the TX skb will be cloned
and the clone will be time stamped (in hardware or software) and added
to the socket error queue of the skb, if the skb has a socket
associated with it.
The actual TX timestamp will reach userspace as a RX timestamp on the
cloned packet. If timestamping is requested and no timestamping is
done in the device driver (potentially this may use hardware
timestamping), it will be done in software after the device's
start_hard_xmit routine.

Impact: cosmetic change in Kconfig menu layout
This patch was originally suggested by Peter Zijlstra, but seems it
was forgotten.
CONFIG_MMIOTRACE and CONFIG_MMIOTRACE_TEST were selectable
directly under the Kernel hacking / debugging menu in the kernel
configuration system. They were present only for x86 and x86_64.
Other tracers that use the ftrace tracing framework are in their own
sub-menu. This patch moves the mmiotrace configuration options there.
Since the Kconfig file, where the tracer menu is, is not architecture
specific, HAVE_MMIOTRACE_SUPPORT is introduced and provided only by
x86/x86_64. CONFIG_MMIOTRACE now depends on it.
