2007-06-20spidernet: silence the ramfull messagesLinas Vepstas
Although the previous patch resolved issues with hangs when the RX ram full interrupt is encountered, there are still situations where lots of RX ramfull interrupts arrive, resulting in a noisy log in syslog. There is no need for this. Signed-off-by: Linas Vepstas <linas@austin.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2007-06-20spidernet: Don't terminate the RX ringLinas Vepstas
The terminated RX ring will cause trouble during the RX ram full conditions, leading to a hung driver, as the hardware can't find the next descr. There is no real reason to terminate the RX ring; it doesn't make the operation any smooother, and it does require an extra sync. So don't do it.

2007-06-20spidernet: Cure RX ram full bugLinas Vepstas
This patch fixes a rare deadlock that can occur when the kernel is not able to empty out the RX ring quickly enough. Below follows a detailed description of the bug and the fix. As long as the OS can empty out the RX buffers at a rate faster than the hardware can fill them, there is no problem. If, for some reason, the OS fails to empty the RX ring fast enough, the hardware GDACTDPA pointer will catch up to the head, notice the not-empty condition, ad stop. However, RX packets may still continue arriving on the wire. The spidernet chip can save some limited number of these in local RAM. When this local ram fills up, the spider chip will issue an interrupt indicating this (GHIINT0STS will show ERRINT, and the GRMFLLINT bit will be set in GHIINT1STS). When te RX ram full condition occurs, a certain bug/feature is triggered that has to be specially handled. This section describes the special handling for this condition. When the OS finally has a chance to run, it will empty out the RX ring. In particular, it will clear the descriptor on which the hardware had stopped. However, once the hardware has decided that a certain descriptor is invalid, it will not restart at that descriptor; instead it will restart at the next descr. This potentially will lead to a deadlock condition, as the tail pointer will be pointing at this descr, which, from the OS point of view, is empty; the OS will be waiting for this descr to be filled. However, the hardware has skipped this descr, and is filling the next descrs. Since the OS doesn't see this, there is a potential deadlock, with the OS waiting for one descr to fill, while the hardware is waiting for a differen set of descrs to become empty. A call to show_rx_chain() at this point indicates the nature of the problem. A typical print when the network is hung shows the following: net eth1: Spider RX RAM full, incoming packets might be discarded! net eth1: Total number of descrs=256 net eth1: Chain tail located at descr=255 net eth1: Chain head is at 255 net eth1: HW curr desc (GDACTDPA) is at 0 net eth1: Have 1 descrs with stat=xa0800000 net eth1: HW next desc (GDACNEXTDA) is at 1 net eth1: Have 127 descrs with stat=x40800101 net eth1: Have 1 descrs with stat=x40800001 net eth1: Have 126 descrs with stat=x40800101 net eth1: Last 1 descrs with stat=xa0800000 Both the tail and head pointers are pointing at descr 255, which is marked xa... which is "empty". Thus, from the OS point of view, there is nothing to be done. In particular, there is the implicit assumption that everything in front of the "empty" descr must surely also be empty, as explained in the last section. The OS is waiting for descr 255 to become non-empty, which, in this case, will never happen. The HW pointer is at descr 0. This descr is marked 0x4.. or "full". Since its already full, the hardware can do nothing more, and thus has halted processing. Notice that descrs 0 through 254 are all marked "full", while descr 254 and 255 are empty. (The "Last 1 descrs" is descr 254, since tail was at 255.) Thus, the system is deadlocked, and there can be no forward progress; the OS thinks there's nothing to do, and the hardware has nowhere to put incoming data. This bug/feature is worked around with the spider_net_resync_head_ptr() routine. When the driver receives RX interrupts, but an examination of the RX chain seems to show it is empty, then it is probable that the hardware has skipped a descr or two (sometimes dozens under heavy network conditions). The spider_net_resync_head_ptr() subroutine will search the ring for the next full descr, and the driver will resume operations there. Since this will leave "holes" in the ring, there is also a spider_net_resync_tail_ptr() that will skip over such holes.

The old snd-powermac driver has some serious refcounting issues when initialisation fails, which is the case on all new machines with a layout-id since those are handled by the new snd-aoa driver. Some of those bugs seem to have been under the radar for some time (like double pci_dev_put), but one was actually added in 2.6.22 with Stephen attempt at teaching refcounting to the driver which didn't do it at all.

2007-06-18Fix possible runqueue lock starvation in wait_task_inactive()Linus Torvalds
Miklos Szeredi reported very long pauses (several seconds, sometimes more) on his T60 (with a Core2Duo) which he managed to track down to wait_task_inactive()'s open-coded busy-loop. He observed that an interrupt on one core tries to acquire the runqueue-lock but does not succeed in doing so for a very long time - while wait_task_inactive() on the other core loops waiting for the first core to deschedule a task (which it wont do while spinning in an interrupt handler). This rewrites wait_task_inactive() to do all its waiting optimistically without any locks taken at all, and then just double-check the end result with the proper runqueue lock held over just a very short section. If there were races in the optimistic wait, of a preemption event scheduled the process away, we simply re-synchronize, and start over. So the code now looks like this: repeat: /* Unlocked, optimistic looping! */ rq = task_rq(p); while (task_running(rq, p)) cpu_relax(); /* Get the *real* values */ rq = task_rq_lock(p, &flags); running = task_running(rq, p); array = p->array; task_rq_unlock(rq, &flags); /* Check them.. */ if (unlikely(running)) { cpu_relax(); goto repeat; } /* Preempted away? Yield if so.. */ if (unlikely(array)) { yield(); goto repeat; } Basically, that first "while()" loop is done entirely without any locking at all (and doesn't check for the case where the target process might have been preempted away), and so it's possibly "incorrect", but we don't really care. Both the runqueue used, and the "task_running()" check might be the wrong tests, but they won't oops - they just mean that we could possibly get the wrong results due to lack of locking and exit the loop early in the case of a race condition. So once we've exited the loop, we then get the proper (and careful) rq lock, and check the running/runnable state _safely_. And if it turns out that our quick-and-dirty and unsafe loop was wrong after all, we just go back and try it all again. (The patch also adds a lot of comments, which is the actual bulk of it all, to make it more obvious why we can do these things without holding the locks). Thanks to Miklos for all the testing and tracking it down.

Gene Heskett reported the following problem while testing CFS: SysRq-N is not always effective in normalizing tasks back to SCHED_OTHER. The reason for that turns out to be the following bug: - normalize_rt_tasks() uses for_each_process() to iterate through all tasks in the system. The problem is, this method does not iterate through all tasks, it iterates through all thread groups. The proper mechanism to enumerate over all threads is to use a do_each_thread() + while_each_thread() loop.

2007-06-18Revert "futex_requeue_pi optimization"Thomas Gleixner
This reverts commit d0aa7a70bf03b9de9e995ab272293be1f7937822. It not only introduced user space visible changes to the futex syscall, it is also non-functional and there is no way to fix it proper before the 2.6.22 release. The breakage report ( http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/5/12/17 ) went unanswered, and unfortunately it turned out that the concept is not feasible at all. It violates the rtmutex semantics badly by introducing a virtual owner, which hacks around the coupling of the user-space pi_futex and the kernel internal rt_mutex representation. At the moment the only safe option is to remove it fully as it contains user-space visible changes to broken kernel code, which we do not want to expose in the 2.6.22 release. The patch reverts the original patch mostly 1:1, but contains a couple of trivial manual cleanups which were necessary due to patches, which touched the same area of code later. Verified against the glibc tests and my own PI futex tests.

Upcoming firmware introduces command interface revision 3, which changes the way port capabilities are queried and set. Update the driver to handle both the new and old command interfaces by adding a new MLX4_FLAG_OLD_PORT_CMDS that it is set after querying the firmware interface revision and then using the correct interface based on the setting of the flag.

2007-06-18IB/mlx4: Handle buffer wraparound in __mlx4_ib_cq_clean()Jack Morgenstein
When compacting CQ entries, we need to set the correct value of the ownership bit in case the value is different between the index we copy the CQE from and the index we copy it to. Found by Ronni Zimmerman of Mellanox. Signed-off-by: Jack Morgenstein <jackm@dev.mellanox.co.il> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2007-06-18IB/mlx4: Get rid of max_inline_data calculationRoland Dreier
The calculation of max_inline_data in set_kernel_sq_size() is bogus, since it doesn't take into account the fact that inline segments may not cross a 64-byte boundary, and hence multiple inline segments will probably need to be used to post large inline sends. We don't support inline sends for kernel QPs anyway, so there's no point in doing this calculation anyway, since the field is just zeroed out a little later. So just delete the bogus calculation.

2007-06-18IB/mlx4: Handle new FW requirement for send request prefetchingRoland Dreier
New ConnectX firmware introduces FW command interface revision 2, which requires that for each QP, a chunk of send queue entries (the "headroom") is kept marked as invalid, so that the HCA doesn't get confused if it prefetches entries that haven't been posted yet. Add code to the driver to do this, and also update the user ABI so that userspace can request that the prefetcher be turned off for userspace QPs (we just leave the prefetcher on for all kernel QPs). Unfortunately, marking send queue entries this way is confuses older firmware, so we change the driver to allow only FW command interface revisions 2. This means that users will have to update their firmware to work with the new driver, but the firmware is changing quickly and the old firmware has lots of other bugs anyway, so this shouldn't be too big a deal. Based on a patch from Jack Morgenstein <jackm@dev.mellanox.co.il>. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2007-06-18sh: oops_enter()/oops_exit() in die().Paul Mundt
As Russell helpfully pointed out on linux-arch: http://marc.info/?l=linux-arch&m=118208089204630&w=2 We were missing the oops_enter/exit() in the sh die() implementation. As we do support lockdep, it's beneficial to add these calls so lockdep properly disables itself in the die() case. Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
2007-06-18sh: Fix restartable syscall arg5 clobbering.Kaz Kojima
We use R0 as the 5th argument of syscall. When the syscall restarts after signal handling, we should restore the old value of R0. The attached patch does it. Without this patch, I've experienced random failures in the situation which signals are issued frequently.
