2008-07-27KVM: ia64: Fix irq disabling leak in error handling codeJulia Lawall
There is a call to local_irq_restore in the normal exit case, so it would seem that there should be one on an error return as well. The semantic patch that finds this problem is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @@ expression l; expression E,E1,E2; @@ local_irq_save(l); ... when != local_irq_restore(l) when != spin_unlock_irqrestore(E,l) when any when strict ( if (...) { ... when != local_irq_restore(l) when != spin_unlock_irqrestore(E1,l) + local_irq_restore(l); return ...; } | if (...) + {local_irq_restore(l); return ...; + } | spin_unlock_irqrestore(E2,l); | local_irq_restore(l); ) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-07-26tracehook: wait_task_inactiveRoland McGrath
This extends wait_task_inactive() with a new argument so it can be used in a "soft" mode where it will check for the task changing state unexpectedly and back off. There is no change to existing callers. This lays the groundwork to allow robust, noninvasive tracing that can try to sample a blocked thread but back off safely if it wakes up.

2008-07-26dma-mapping: add the device argument to dma_mapping_error()FUJITA Tomonori
Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER architecture does: This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423). I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread). So I CC'ed this to KVM camp. Comments are appreciated. A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added. If the pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it. If it's NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before. If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works with hot plugging). It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate dma_mapping_ops per device. The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different dma_mapping_error functions. The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error. The patch is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in all the architecture. This patch: dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function. x86 IOMMUs use device argument.

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>

2008-07-24hugetlb: modular state for hugetlb page sizeAndi Kleen
The goal of this patchset is to support multiple hugetlb page sizes. This is achieved by introducing a new struct hstate structure, which encapsulates the important hugetlb state and constants (eg. huge page size, number of huge pages currently allocated, etc). The hstate structure is then passed around the code which requires these fields, they will do the right thing regardless of the exact hstate they are operating on. This patch adds the hstate structure, with a single global instance of it (default_hstate), and does the basic work of converting hugetlb to use the hstate. Future patches will add more hstate structures to allow for different hugetlbfs mounts to have different page sizes.

This allow to dynamically generate attributes and share show/store functions between attributes. Right now most attributes are generated by special macros and lots of duplicated code. With the attribute passed it's instead possible to attach some data to the attribute and then use that in shared low level functions to do different things. I need this for the dynamically generated bank attributes in the x86 machine check code, but it'll allow some further cleanups. I converted all users in tree to the new show/store prototype.

"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>

2008-06-30[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.

2008-06-11[IA64] Update check_sal_cache_flush to use platform_send_ipi()Alex Chiang
check_sal_cache_flush is used to detect broken firmware that drops pending interrupts. The old implementation schedules a timer interrupt for itself in the future by getting the current value of the Interval Timer Counter + 1000 cycles, waits for the interrupt to be pended, calls SAL_CACHE_FLUSH, and finally checks to see if the interrupt is still pending. This implementation can cause problems for virtual machine code if the process of scheduling the timer interrupt takes more than 1000 cycles; the virtual machine can end up sleeping for several hundred years while waiting for the ITC to wrap around. The fix is to use platform_send_ipi. The processor will still send an interrupt to itself, using the IA64_IPI_DM_INT delivery mode, which causes the IPI to look like an external interrupt. The rest of the SAL_CACHE_FLUSH + checking to see if the interrupt is still pending remains unchanged. This fix has been boot tested successfully on: - intel tiger2 - hp rx6600 - hp rx5670 The rx5670 has known buggy firmware, where SAL_CACHE_FLUSH drops pending interrupts. A boot test on this machine showed this message on the console: SAL: SAL_CACHE_FLUSH drops interrupts; PAL_CACHE_FLUSH will be used instead Which proves that the self-inflicted IPI approach is viable. And as expected, the other tested platforms correctly did not display the warning. Signed-off-by: Alex Chiang <achiang@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

This is a SLIT sanity checking patch. It moves slit_valid() function to generic ACPI code and does sanity checking for both x86 and ia64. It sets up node_distance with LOCAL_DISTANCE and REMOTE_DISTANCE when hitting invalid SLIT table on ia64. It also cleans up unused variable localities in acpi_parse_slit() on x86.
