2006-12-07[ARM] 3978/1: macro to provide a 63-bit value from a 32-bit hardware counterNicolas Pitre
This is done in a completely lockless fashion. Bits 0 to 31 of the count are provided by the hardware while bits 32 to 62 are stored in memory. The top bit in memory is used to synchronize with the hardware count half-period. When the top bit of both counters (hardware and in memory) differ then the memory is updated with a new value, incrementing it when the hardware counter wraps around. Because a word store in memory is atomic then the incremented value will always be in synch with the top bit indicating to any potential concurrent reader if the value in memory is up to date or not wrt the needed increment. And any race in updating the value in memory is harmless as the same value would be stored more than once.

2006-12-07[ARM] 3611/4: optimize do_div() when divisor is constantNicolas Pitre
On ARM all divisions have to be performed "manually". For 64-bit divisions that may take more than a hundred cycles in many cases. With 32-bit divisions gcc already use the recyprocal of constant divisors to perform a multiplication, but not with 64-bit divisions. Since the kernel is increasingly relying upon 64-bit divisions it is worth optimizing at least those cases where the divisor is a constant. This is what this patch does using plain C code that gets optimized away at compile time. For example, despite the amount of added C code, do_div(x, 10000) now produces the following assembly code (where x is assigned to r0-r1): adr r4, .L0 ldmia r4, {r4-r5} umull r2, r3, r4, r0 mov r2, #0 umlal r3, r2, r5, r0 umlal r3, r2, r4, r1 mov r3, #0 umlal r2, r3, r5, r1 mov r0, r2, lsr #11 orr r0, r0, r3, lsl #21 mov r1, r3, lsr #11 ... .L0: .word 948328779 .word 879609302 which is the fastest that can be done for any value of x in that case, many times faster than the __do_div64 code (except for the small x value space for which the result ends up being zero or a single bit). The fact that this code is generated inline produces a tiny increase in .text size, but not significant compared to the needed code around each __do_div64 call site this code is replacing. The algorithm used has been validated on a 16-bit scale for all possible values, and then recodified for 64-bit values. Furthermore I've been running it with the final BUG_ON() uncommented for over two months now with no problem. Note that this new code is compiled with gcc versions 4.0 or later. Earlier gcc versions proved themselves too problematic and only the original code is used with them.

2006-11-28[NET]: Fix MAX_HEADER setting.David S. Miller
MAX_HEADER is either set to LL_MAX_HEADER or LL_MAX_HEADER + 48, and this is controlled by a set of CONFIG_* ifdef tests. It is trying to use LL_MAX_HEADER + 48 when any of the tunnels are enabled which set hard_header_len like this: dev->hard_header_len = LL_MAX_HEADER + sizeof(struct xxx); The correct set of tunnel drivers which do this are: ipip ip_gre ip6_tunnel sit so make the ifdef test match.

2006-11-26Fix 'ALIGN()' macro, take 2Linus Torvalds
You wouldn't think that doing an ALIGN() macro that aligns something up to a power-of-two boundary would be likely to have bugs, would you? But hey, in the wonderful world of mixing integer types, you have to be careful. This just makes sure that the alignment is interpreted in the same type as the thing to be aligned. Thanks to Roland Dreier, who noticed that the amso1100 driver got broken by the previous fix (that just extended the mask to "unsigned long", but was still broken in "unsigned long long" - it just happened to be the same on 64-bit architectures).

Make it break or warn if you pass to spin_lock_irqsave() and friends something different from "unsigned long flags;". Suprisingly large amount of these was caught by recent commit c53421b18f205c5f97c604ae55c6a921f034b0f6 and others. Idea is largely from FRV typechecking. Suggestions from Andrew Morton. All stupid typos in first version fixed. Passes allmodconfig on i386, x86_64, alpha, arm as well as my usual config. Note #1: checking with sparse is still needed, because a driver can save and pass around flags or something. So far patch is very intrusive. Note #2: techically, we should break only if sizeof(flags) < sizeof(unsigned long), however, the more pain for getting suspicious code into kernel, the better.

2006-11-14[PATCH] hugetlb: prepare_hugepage_range check offset tooHugh Dickins
(David:) If hugetlbfs_file_mmap() returns a failure to do_mmap_pgoff() - for example, because the given file offset is not hugepage aligned - then do_mmap_pgoff will go to the unmap_and_free_vma backout path. But at this stage the vma hasn't been marked as hugepage, and the backout path will call unmap_region() on it. That will eventually call down to the non-hugepage version of unmap_page_range(). On ppc64, at least, that will cause serious problems if there are any existing hugepage pagetable entries in the vicinity - for example if there are any other hugepage mappings under the same PUD. unmap_page_range() will trigger a bad_pud() on the hugepage pud entries. I suspect this will also cause bad problems on ia64, though I don't have a machine to test it on. (Hugh:) prepare_hugepage_range() should check file offset alignment when it checks virtual address and length, to stop MAP_FIXED with a bad huge offset from unmapping before it fails further down. PowerPC should apply the same prepare_hugepage_range alignment checks as ia64 and all the others do. Then none of the alignment checks in hugetlbfs_file_mmap are required (nor is the check for too small a mapping); but even so, move up setting of VM_HUGETLB and add a comment to warn of what David Gibson discovered - if hugetlbfs_file_mmap fails before setting it, do_mmap_pgoff's unmap_region when unwinding from error will go the non-huge way, which may cause bad behaviour on architectures (powerpc and ia64) which segregate their huge mappings into a separate region of the address space.

On the others some CPUs didn't get their state initialized properly and vgetcpu wouldn't work. Change the initialization sequence to instead run in a normal initcall (which runs after the normal CPU bootup) and initialize all running CPUs there.

Timer overrides are normally disabled on Nvidia board because they are commonly wrong, except on new ones with HPET support. Unfortunately there are quite some Asus boards around that don't have HPET, but need a timer override. We don't know yet how to handle this transparently, but at least add a command line option to force the timer override and let them boot.

2006-11-13[PATCH] Fix missing parens in set_personality()Russell King
If you call set_personality() with an expression such as: set_personality(foo ? PERS_FOO1 : PERS_FOO2); then this evaluates to: ((current->personality == foo ? PERS_FOO1 : PERS_FOO2) ? ... which is obviously not the intended result. Add the missing parents to ensure this gets evaluated as expected: ((current->personality == (foo ? PERS_FOO1 : PERS_FOO2)) ? ... Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-11-13[PATCH] mspec driver build fixJes Sorensen
Fix MSPEC driver to build for non SN2 enabled configs as the driver should work in cached and uncached modes (no fetchop) on these systems. In addition make MSPEC select IA64_UNCACHED_ALLOCATOR, which is required for it and move it to arch/ia64/Kconfig to avoid warnings on non ia64 architectures running allmodconfig. Once the Kconfig code is fixed, we can move it back.

- reorder 'struct vm_struct' to speedup lookups on CPUS with small cache lines. The fields 'next,addr,size' should be now in the same cache line, to speedup lookups. - One minor cleanup in __get_vm_area_node() - Bugfixes in vmalloc_user() and vmalloc_32_user() NULL returns from __vmalloc() and __find_vm_area() were not tested.

2006-11-08[PATCH] htirq: allow buggy drivers of buggy hardware to write the registersEric W. Biederman
This patch adds a variant of ht_create_irq __ht_create_irq that takes an aditional parameter update that is a function that is called whenever we want to write to a drivers htirq configuration registers. This is needed to support the ipath_iba6110 because it's registers in the proper location are not actually conected to the hardware that controlls interrupt delivery.

2006-11-08[PATCH] htirq: refactor so we only have one function that writes to the chipEric W. Biederman
This refactoring actually optimizes the code a little by caching the value that we think the device is programmed with instead of reading it back from the hardware. Which simplifies the code a little and should speed things up a bit. This patch introduces the concept of a ht_irq_msg and modifies the architecture read/write routines to update this code. There is a minor consistency fix here as well as x86_64 forgot to initialize the htirq as masked. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-11-08[PATCH] nfsd4: fix open-create permissionsJ. Bruce Fields
In the case where an open creates the file, we shouldn't be rechecking permissions to open the file; the open succeeds regardless of what the new file's mode bits say. This patch fixes the problem, but only by introducing yet another parameter to nfsd_create_v3. This is ugly. This will be fixed by later patches. Signed-off-by: J.

2006-11-08x86-64: clean up io-apic accessesLinus Torvalds
This is just commit 130fe05dbc0114609cfef9815c0c5580b42decfa ported to x86-64, for all the same reasons. It cleans up the IO-APIC accesses in order to then fix the ordering issues. We move the accessor functions (that were only used by io_apic.c) out of a header file, and use proper memory-mapped accesses rather than making up our own "volatile" pointers.
