2009-02-18mm: clean up for early_pfn_to_nid()KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
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: 0x0081fee7 -> 0x0081ff51 [ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081ff59 -> 0x0081ff5d So it's a block move in that 0x81f600-->0x81f7ff region which triggers the problem.

The conversion of atmel-mci to dma_request_channel missed the initialization of the channel dma_slave information. The filter_fn passed to dma_request_channel is responsible for initializing the channel's private data.

2009-02-18mm: task dirty accounting fixNick Piggin
YAMAMOTO-san noticed that task_dirty_inc doesn't seem to be called properly for cases where set_page_dirty is not used to dirty a page (eg. mark_buffer_dirty). Additionally, there is some inconsistency about when task_dirty_inc is called. It is used for dirty balancing, however it even gets called for __set_page_dirty_no_writeback. So rather than increment it in a set_page_dirty wrapper, move it down to exactly where the dirty page accounting stats are incremented.

2009-02-18seq_file: properly cope with preadEric Biederman
Currently seq_read assumes that the offset passed to it is always the offset it passed to user space. In the case pread this assumption is broken and we do the wrong thing when presented with pread. To solve this I introduce an offset cache inside of struct seq_file so we know where our logical file position is. Then in seq_read if we try to read from another offset we reset our data structures and attempt to go to the offset user space wanted.

2009-02-16ftrace: trace different functions with a different tracerSteven Rostedt
Impact: new feature Currently, the function tracer only gives you an ability to hook a tracer to all functions being traced. The dynamic function trace allows you to pick and choose which of those functions will be traced, but all functions being traced will call all tracers that registered with the function tracer. This patch adds a new feature that allows a tracer to hook to specific functions, even when all functions are being traced. It allows for different functions to call different tracer hooks. The way this is accomplished is by a special function that will hook to the function tracer and will set up a hash table knowing which tracer hook to call with which function. This is the most general and easiest method to accomplish this. Later, an arch may choose to supply their own method in changing the mcount call of a function to call a different tracer. But that will be an exercise for the future. To register a function: struct ftrace_hook_ops { void (*func)(unsigned long ip, unsigned long parent_ip, void **data); int (*callback)(unsigned long ip, void **data); void (*free)(void **data); }; int register_ftrace_function_hook(char *glob, struct ftrace_hook_ops *ops, void *data); glob is a simple glob to search for the functions to hook. ops is a pointer to the operations (listed below) data is the default data to be passed to the hook functions when traced ops: func is the hook function to call when the functions are traced callback is a callback function that is called when setting up the hash. That is, if the tracer needs to do something special for each function, that is being traced, and wants to give each function its own data. The address of the entry data is passed to this callback, so that the callback may wish to update the entry to whatever it would like. free is a callback for when the entry is freed. In case the tracer allocated any data, it is give the chance to free it. To unregister we have three functions: void unregister_ftrace_function_hook(char *glob, struct ftrace_hook_ops *ops, void *data) This will unregister all hooks that match glob, point to ops, and have its data matching data. (note, if glob is NULL, blank or '*', all functions will be tested). void unregister_ftrace_function_hook_func(char *glob, struct ftrace_hook_ops *ops) This will unregister all functions matching glob that has an entry pointing to ops. void unregister_ftrace_function_hook_all(char *glob) This simply unregisters all funcs.

2009-02-16ftrace: add command interface for function selectionSteven Rostedt

The :mod: command is converted to this interface and also serves as a template for other implementations. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

2009-02-12sched: do not account for NMIsSteven Rostedt
Impact: avoid corruption in system time accounting Martin Schwidefsky told me that there was an issue with NMIs and system accounting. The problem is that the accounting code is not reentrant, and if an NMI goes off after an interrupt it can corrupt the accounting. For now, the best we can do is to treat NMIs like SMIs and they are not accounted for. This patch changes nmi_enter to not call __irq_enter and to do the preempt-count and tracing calls directly.

2009-02-12preempt-count: force hardirq-count to max of 10Steven Rostedt
To add a bit in the preempt_count to be set when in NMI context, we found that some archs did not have enough bits to spare. This is due to the hardirq_count being a mask that can hold NR_IRQS. Some archs allow for over 16000 IRQs, and that would require a mask of 14 bits. The sofitrq mask is 8 bits and the preempt disable mask is also 8 bits. The PREEMP_ACTIVE bit is bit 30, and bit 31 would make the preempt_count (which is type int) a negative number. A negative preempt_count is a sign of failure. Add them up 14+8+8+1+1 you get 32 bits. No room for the NMI bit. But the hardirq_count is to track the number of nested IRQs, not the number of total IRQs. This originally took the paranoid approach of setting the max nesting to NR_IRQS. But when we have archs with over 1000 IRQs, it is not practical to think they will ever all nest on a single CPU. Not to mention that this would most definitely cause a stack overflow. This patch sets a max of 10 bits to be used for IRQ nesting. I did a 'git grep HARDIRQ' to examine all users of HARDIRQ_BITS and HARDIRQ_MASK, and found that making it a max of 10 would not hurt anyone. I did find that the m68k expected it to be 8 bits, so I allow for the archs to set the number to be less than 10. I removed the setting of HARDIRQ_BITS from the archs that set it to more than 10. This includes ALPHA, ia64 and avr32. This will always allow room for the NMI bit, and if we need to allow for NMI nesting, we have 4 bits to play with.

2009-02-11syscall define: fix uml compile bugHeiko Carstens
With the new system call defines we get this on uml: arch/um/sys-i386/built-in.o: In function `sys_call_table': (.rodata+0x308): undefined reference to `sys_sigprocmask' Reason for this is that uml passes the preprocessor option -Dsigprocmask=kernel_sigprocmask to gcc when compiling the kernel. This causes SYSCALL_DEFINE3(sigprocmask, ...) to be expanded to SYSCALL_DEFINEx(3, kernel_sigprocmask, ...) and finally to a system call named sys_kernel_sigprocmask. However sys_sigprocmask is missing because of this. To avoid macro expansion for the system call name just concatenate the name at first define instead of carrying it through severel levels.

2009-02-11x86, ptrace, mm: fix double-free on raceMarkus Metzger
Ptrace_detach() races with __ptrace_unlink() if the traced task is reaped while detaching. This might cause a double-free of the BTS buffer. Change the ptrace_detach() path to only do the memory accounting in ptrace_bts_detach() and leave the buffer free to ptrace_bts_untrace() which will be called from __ptrace_unlink(). The fix follows a proposal from Oleg Nesterov. Reported-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-02-11timers: fix TIMER_ABSTIME for process wide cpu timersPeter Zijlstra
The POSIX timer interface allows for absolute time expiry values through the TIMER_ABSTIME flag, therefore we have to synchronize the timer to the clock every time we start it. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-02-11timers: split process wide cpu clocks/timers, fixPeter Zijlstra
To decrease the chance of a missed enable, always enable the timer when we sample it, we'll always disable it when we find that there are no active timers in the jiffy tick. This fixes a flood of warnings reported by Mike Galbraith.

2009-02-10Do not account for the address space used by hugetlbfs using VM_ACCOUNTMel Gorman
When overcommit is disabled, the core VM accounts for pages used by anonymous shared, private mappings and special mappings. It keeps track of VMAs that should be accounted for with VM_ACCOUNT and VMAs that never had a reserve with VM_NORESERVE. Overcommit for hugetlbfs is much riskier than overcommit for base pages due to contiguity requirements. It avoids overcommiting on both shared and private mappings using reservation counters that are checked and updated during mmap(). This ensures (within limits) that hugepages exist in the future when faults occurs or it is too easy to applications to be SIGKILLed. As hugetlbfs makes its own reservations of a different unit to the base page size, VM_ACCOUNT should never be set. Even if the units were correct, we would double account for the usage in the core VM and hugetlbfs. VM_NORESERVE may be set because an application can request no reserves be made for hugetlbfs at the risk of getting killed later. With commit fc8744adc870a8d4366908221508bb113d8b72ee, VM_NORESERVE and VM_ACCOUNT are getting unconditionally set for hugetlbfs-backed mappings. This breaks the accounting for both the core VM and hugetlbfs, can trigger an OOM storm when hugepage pools are too small lockups and corrupted counters otherwise are used. This patch brings hugetlbfs more in line with how the core VM treats VM_NORESERVE but prevents VM_ACCOUNT being set.

2009-02-10jbd2: Avoid possible NULL dereference in jbd2_journal_begin_ordered_truncate()Jan Kara
If we race with commit code setting i_transaction to NULL, we could possibly dereference it. Proper locking requires the journal pointer (to access journal->j_list_lock), which we don't have. So we have to change the prototype of the function so that filesystem passes us the journal pointer. Also add a more detailed comment about why the function jbd2_journal_begin_ordered_truncate() does what it does and how it should be used.

Removed OSSlib stuff from linux/soundcard.h to fix the warnings for 'make headers_check'. This patch breaks building against OSSlib with the kernel headers instead of its own headers. It should still work with any version of the library from the 2003 onwards which provide their own headers for the latest interface.
