2008-10-20kdump: add is_vmcore_usable() and vmcore_unusable()Simon Horman
The usage of elfcorehdr_addr has changed recently such that being set to ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX is used by is_kdump_kernel() to indicate if the code is executing in a kernel executed as a crash kernel. However, arch/ia64/kernel/setup.c:reserve_elfcorehdr will rest elfcorehdr_addr to ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX on error, which means any subsequent calls to is_kdump_kernel() will return 0, even though they should return 1. Ok, at this point in time there are no subsequent calls, but I think its fair to say that there is ample scope for error or at the very least confusion. This patch add an extra state, ELFCORE_ADDR_ERR, which indicates that elfcorehdr_addr was passed on the command line, and thus execution is taking place in a crashdump kernel, but vmcore can't be used for some reason. This is tested for using is_vmcore_usable() and set using vmcore_unusable(). A subsequent patch makes use of this new code. To summarise, the states that elfcorehdr_addr can now be in are as follows: ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX: not a crashdump kernel ELFCORE_ADDR_ERR: crashdump kernel but vmcore is unusable any other value: crash dump kernel and vmcore is usable Signed-off-by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au> Cc: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-10-20kdump: make elfcorehdr_addr independent of CONFIG_PROC_VMCOREVivek Goyal
o elfcorehdr_addr is used by not only the code under CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE but also by the code which is not inside CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE. For example, is_kdump_kernel() is used by powerpc code to determine if kernel is booting after a panic then use previous kernel's TCE table. So even if CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE is not set in second kernel, one should be able to correctly determine that we are booting after a panic and setup calgary iommu accordingly. o So remove the assumption that elfcorehdr_addr is under CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE. o Move definition of elfcorehdr_addr to arch dependent crash files. (Unfortunately crash dump does not have an arch independent file otherwise that would have been the best place). o kexec.c is not the right place as one can Have CRASH_DUMP enabled in second kernel without KEXEC being enabled. o I don't see sh setup code parsing the command line for elfcorehdr_addr. I am wondering how does vmcore interface work on sh. Anyway, I am atleast defining elfcoredhr_addr so that compilation is not broken on sh.

The patch contains Intel IOMMU IA64 specific code. It defines new machvec dig_vtd, hooks for IOMMU, DMAR table detection, cache line flush function, etc. For a generic kernel with CONFIG_DMAR=y, if Intel IOMMU is detected, dig_vtd is used for machinve vector. Otherwise, kernel falls back to dig machine vector. Kernel parameter "machvec=dig" or "intel_iommu=off" can be used to force kernel to boot dig machine vector.

Initial fix for making sure that we can access percpu variables in all C code (commit: 10617bbe84628eb18ab5f723d3ba35005adde143) inadvertantly allocated the memory in the "percpu" section of the vmlinux ELF executable. This confused kexec/dump. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
2008-09-22[IA64] kexec fails on systems with blocks of uncached memoryJay Lan
Currently a memory segment in memory map with attribute of EFI_MEMORY_UC is denoted as "System RAM" in /proc/iomem, while memory of attribute (EFI_MEMORY_WB|EFI_MEMORY_UC) is also labeled the same. The kexec utility then includes uncached memory as part of vmcore. The kdump kernel MCA'ed when it tries to save the vmcore to a disk. A normal "cached" access may cause MCAs. This patch would label memory with attribute of EFI_MEMORY_UC only as "Uncached RAM" so that kexec would know not to include it in the vmcore.

Right now, there is no notifier that is called on a new cpu, before the new cpu begins processing interrupts/softirqs.

Maintainers note: This really looks like the wrong thing to do ... it would be much better for the kernel to export an API to provide drivers like this with data they need (which in the case of this driver seems to be an estimate of the effective parallelism available on the platform).

2008-08-12[IA64] Ensure cpu0 can access per-cpu variables in early boot codeTony Luck
ia64 handles per-cpu variables a litle differently from other architectures in that it maps the physical memory allocated for each cpu at a constant virtual address (0xffffffffffff0000). This mapping is not enabled until the architecture specific cpu_init() function is run, which causes problems since some generic code is run before this point. In particular when CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME is enabled, the boot cpu will trap on the access to per-cpu memory at the first printk() call so the boot will fail without the kernel printing anything to the console. Fix this by allocating percpu memory for cpu0 in the kernel data section and doing all initialization to enable percpu access in head.S before calling any generic code. Other cpus must take care not to access per-cpu variables too early, but their code path from start_secondary() to cpu_init() is all in arch/ia64 Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

2008-07-25kprobes: improve kretprobe scalability with hashed lockingSrinivasa D S
Currently list of kretprobe instances are stored in kretprobe object (as used_instances,free_instances) and in kretprobe hash table. We have one global kretprobe lock to serialise the access to these lists. This causes only one kretprobe handler to execute at a time. Hence affects system performance, particularly on SMP systems and when return probe is set on lot of functions (like on all systemcalls). Solution proposed here gives fine-grain locks that performs better on SMP system compared to present kretprobe implementation. Solution: 1) Instead of having one global lock to protect kretprobe instances present in kretprobe object and kretprobe hash table. We will have two locks, one lock for protecting kretprobe hash table and another lock for kretporbe object. 2) We hold lock present in kretprobe object while we modify kretprobe instance in kretprobe object and we hold per-hash-list lock while modifying kretprobe instances present in that hash list. To prevent deadlock, we never grab a per-hash-list lock while holding a kretprobe lock. 3) We can remove used_instances from struct kretprobe, as we can track used instances of kretprobe instances using kretprobe hash table.

2008-07-24flag parameters: pipeUlrich Drepper
This patch introduces the new syscall pipe2 which is like pipe but it also takes an additional parameter which takes a flag value. This patch implements the handling of O_CLOEXEC for the flag. I did not add support for the new syscall for the architectures which have a special sys_pipe implementation. I think the maintainers of those archs have the chance to go with the unified implementation but that's up to them. The implementation introduces do_pipe_flags. I did that instead of changing all callers of do_pipe because some of the callers are written in assembler. I would probably screw up changing the assembly code. To avoid breaking code do_pipe is now a small wrapper around do_pipe_flags. Once all callers are changed over to do_pipe_flags the old do_pipe function can be removed. The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #ifndef __NR_pipe2 # ifdef __x86_64__ # define __NR_pipe2 293 # elif defined __i386__ # define __NR_pipe2 331 # else # error "need __NR_pipe2" # endif #endif int main (void) { int fd[2]; if (syscall (__NR_pipe2, fd, 0) != 0) { puts ("pipe2(0) failed"); return 1; } for (int i = 0; i < 2; ++i) { int coe = fcntl (fd[i], F_GETFD); if (coe == -1) { puts ("fcntl failed"); return 1; } if (coe & FD_CLOEXEC) { printf ("pipe2(0) set close-on-exit for fd[%d]\n", i); return 1; } } close (fd[0]); close (fd[1]); if (syscall (__NR_pipe2, fd, O_CLOEXEC) != 0) { puts ("pipe2(O_CLOEXEC) failed"); return 1; } for (int i = 0; i < 2; ++i) { int coe = fcntl (fd[i], F_GETFD); if (coe == -1) { puts ("fcntl failed"); return 1; } if ((coe & FD_CLOEXEC) == 0) { printf ("pipe2(O_CLOEXEC) does not set close-on-exit for fd[%d]\n", i); return 1; } } close (fd[0]); close (fd[1]); puts ("OK"); return 0; } ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Signed-off-by: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com> Acked-by: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@googlemail.com> Cc: <linux-arch@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-07-16ACPI : Create "idle=nomwait" bootparamZhao Yakui
"idle=nomwait" disables the use of the MWAIT instruction from both C1 (C1_FFH) and deeper (C2C3_FFH) C-states. When MWAIT is unavailable, the BIOS and OS generally negotiate to use the HALT instruction for C1, and use IO accesses for deeper C-states. This option is useful for power and performance comparisons, and also to work around BIOS bugs where broken MWAIT support is advertised. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10807 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10914 Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Li Shaohua <shaohua.li@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>
2008-07-16ACPI: Create "idle=halt" bootparamZhao Yakui
"idle=halt" limits the idle loop to using the halt instruction. No MWAIT, no IO accesses, no C-states deeper than C1. If something is broken in the idle code, "idle=halt" is a less severe workaround than "idle=poll" which disables all power savings.

2008-06-30[IA64] Bugfix for system with 32 cpusTony Luck
On a system where there are no hot pluggable cpus "additional_cpus" is still set to -1 at the point where we call per_cpu_scan_finalize(). If we didn't find an SRAT table and so pick the default "32" for the number of cpus, when we get to: high_cpu = min(high_cpu + reserve_cpus, NR_CPUS); we will end up initializing for just 31 cpus ... and so we will die horribly when bringing up cpu#32. Problem introduced by: 2c6e6db41f01b6b4eb98809350827c9678996698 "Minimize per_cpu reservations." Acked-by: Robin Holt <holt@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
