2013-04-30dump_stack: unify debug information printed by show_regs()Tejun Heo
show_regs() is inherently arch-dependent but it does make sense to print generic debug information and some archs already do albeit in slightly different forms. This patch introduces a generic function to print debug information from show_regs() so that different archs print out the same information and it's much easier to modify what's printed. show_regs_print_info() prints out the same debug info as dump_stack() does plus task and thread_info pointers. * Archs which didn't print debug info now do. alpha, arc, blackfin, c6x, cris, frv, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m32r, metag, microblaze, mn10300, openrisc, parisc, score, sh64, sparc, um, xtensa * Already prints debug info. Replaced with show_regs_print_info(). The printed information is superset of what used to be there. arm, arm64, avr32, mips, powerpc, sh32, tile, unicore32, x86 * s390 is special in that it used to print arch-specific information along with generic debug info. Heiko and Martin think that the arch-specific extra isn't worth keeping s390 specfic implementation. Converted to use the generic version. Note that now all archs print the debug info before actual register dumps. An example BUG() dump follows. kernel BUG at /work/os/work/kernel/workqueue.c:4841! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 3.9.0-rc1-work+ #7 Hardware name: empty empty/S3992, BIOS 080011 10/26/2007 task: ffff88007c85e040 ti: ffff88007c860000 task.ti: ffff88007c860000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff8234a07e>] [<ffffffff8234a07e>] init_workqueues+0x4/0x6 RSP: 0000:ffff88007c861ec8 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: ffff88007c861fd8 RBX: ffffffff824466a8 RCX: 0000000000000001 RDX: 0000000000000046 RSI: 0000000000000001 RDI: ffffffff8234a07a RBP: ffff88007c861ec8 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000001 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: ffffffff8234a07a R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff88007dc00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: ffff88015f7ff000 CR3: 00000000021f1000 CR4: 00000000000007f0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Stack: ffff88007c861ef8 ffffffff81000312 ffffffff824466a8 ffff88007c85e650 0000000000000003 0000000000000000 ffff88007c861f38 ffffffff82335e5d ffff88007c862080 ffffffff8223d8c0 ffff88007c862080 ffffffff81c47760 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81000312>] do_one_initcall+0x122/0x170 [<ffffffff82335e5d>] kernel_init_freeable+0x9b/0x1c8 [<ffffffff81c47760>] ? rest_init+0x140/0x140 [<ffffffff81c4776e>] kernel_init+0xe/0xf0 [<ffffffff81c6be9c>] ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 [<ffffffff81c47760>] ? rest_init+0x140/0x140 ... v2: Typo fix in x86-32. v3: CPU number dropped from show_regs_print_info() as dump_stack_print_info() has been updated to print it. s390 specific implementation dropped as requested by s390 maintainers.

2013-04-30dump_stack: consolidate dump_stack() implementations and unify their behaviorsTejun Heo
Both dump_stack() and show_stack() are currently implemented by each architecture. show_stack(NULL, NULL) dumps the backtrace for the current task as does dump_stack(). On some archs, dump_stack() prints extra information - pid, utsname and so on - in addition to the backtrace while the two are identical on other archs. The usages in arch-independent code of the two functions indicate show_stack(NULL, NULL) should print out bare backtrace while dump_stack() is used for debugging purposes when something went wrong, so it does make sense to print additional information on the task which triggered dump_stack(). There's no reason to require archs to implement two separate but mostly identical functions. It leads to unnecessary subtle information. This patch expands the dummy fallback dump_stack() implementation in lib/dump_stack.c such that it prints out debug information (taken from x86) and invokes show_stack(NULL, NULL) and drops arch-specific dump_stack() implementations in all archs except blackfin. Blackfin's dump_stack() does something wonky that I don't understand. Debug information can be printed separately by calling dump_stack_print_info() so that arch-specific dump_stack() implementation can still emit the same debug information. This is used in blackfin. This patch brings the following behavior changes. * On some archs, an extra level in backtrace for show_stack() could be printed. This is because the top frame was determined in dump_stack() on those archs while generic dump_stack() can't do that reliably. It can be compensated by inlining dump_stack() but not sure whether that'd be necessary. * Most archs didn't use to print debug info on dump_stack(). They do now. An example WARN dump follows.

This loses %ksp from the debug message which the maintainers think isn't important enough to keep the s390-specific dump_stack() implementation. dump_stack_print_info() is moved to kernel/printk.c from lib/dump_stack.c. Because linkage is per objecct file, dump_stack_print_info() living in the same lib file as generic dump_stack() means that archs which implement custom dump_stack() - at this point, only blackfin - can't use dump_stack_print_info() as that will bring in the generic version of dump_stack() too. v1 The v1 patch broke build on blackfin due to this issue.

2012-12-18xtensa: add device trees supportMax Filippov
Device trees allow specification of hardware topology and device parameters at runtime instead of hard-coding them in platform setup code. This allows running single binary kernel on a range of compatible boards. New boot parameters tag BP_TAG_FDT is allocated and a pointer to flat device tree is passed in it. Note that current interrupt mapping scheme uses single cell for interrupt identification. That means that IRQ numbers used in DTS must be CPU internal IRQ numbers, not external. It is possible to extend interrupt identification to two cells, and use second cell to tell external IRQ numbers form internal. That would allow to use single DTS on multiple boards with different mapping of external IRQ numbers. Signed-off-by: Max Filippov <jcmvbkbc@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Zankel <chris@zankel.net>

2012-12-18xtensa: add s32c1i sanity checkMax Filippov
Add a brief sanity test of S32C1I functionality. This instruction is needed by the kernel and userland as part of the base ABI (including GCC atomic builtins, certain threading packages, future atomic support in the C++ standard, etc). However, correct operation of this instruction requires some cooperation by hardware external to the processor (such as bus bridge, bus fabric, or memory controller). Minimally exercising this mechanism and reporting explicit status early in the boot process is helpful to chip vendors using the Linux kernel as a benchmark of correctness of hardware. As it turns out, S32C1I is not exercised by the kernel and by uClibc based userland as of early June 2008. This is expected to change soon as both incorporate more recent open source developments.

2012-10-15xtensa: copy_thread with CLONE_VM must not copy live parent AR windowsMarc Gauthier
When doing a fork (new VM), the new task has a mirror image of the parent's stack, so keeps the same live register windows etc. However when doing a clone with CLONE_VM, keeping the same VM (eg. when creating a new thread), the child starts afresh on a new stack -- it cannot share any part of the parent stack. It especially cannot have the same live AR windows as the parent, otherwise it will overwrite the parent stack on overflow, likely causing corruption. (and so it did...) Effectively, the register windows need to be spilled. Turns out it's much easier to simply not copy parent register windows when CLONE_VM is set.

2012-10-12vfs: define struct filename and have getname() return itJeff Layton
getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to the string. For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled, we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not need to recopy it from userspace. This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it. Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes convenient. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Pull Xtensa patchset from Chris Zankel: "The Xtensa tree has been broken for some time now, and this patchset brings it back to life. It has been part of the linux-next tree for some time. Most changes are inside the xtensa subdirectory; the other changes mostly add another rule to already existing #ifdefs to exclude Xtensa, where required. The only 'common' change is to add two more sections ('.xt.prop' and '.xt.lit') to the white list in modpost." * tag 'xtensa-next-20121008' of git://github.com/czankel/xtensa-linux: (27 commits) xtensa: Setup CROSS_COMPILE at the top xtensa: drop CONFIG_EMBEDDED_RAMDISK xtensa: fix TIOCGSERIAL and TIOCSSERIAL definitions xtensa: provide dummy gcc intrinsics xtensa: add missing symbol exports parport: disable for xtensa arch xtensa: rename MISC SR definition to avoid name clashes hisax: disable build for big-endian xtensa xtensa: fix CODA build xtensa: fix parallel make xtensa: ISS: drop unused io.c xtensa: ISS: exit simulator in case of halt or poweroff xtensa: ISS: change keyboard polling rate xtensa: ISS: add platform_pcibios_init xtensa: ISS: add dummy serial.h for ISS platform xtensa: change default platform clock frequency to 10MHz xtensa: add ARCH_WANT_OPTIONAL_GPIOLIB to xtensa config xtensa: set NO_IOPORT to 'n' by default xtensa: adopt generic io routines xtensa: fix ioremap ...
2012-10-03xtensa: drop CONFIG_EMBEDDED_RAMDISKMax Filippov
Remove Kconfig entries, boot subdirectory, dependencies from other boot-* Makefiles, and sections from ld scripts. Remove stale redboot code that used to pass initrd addresses in a3 and a4 to _start. Signed-off-by: Max Filippov <jcmvbkbc@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Zankel <chris@zankel.net>
2012-10-03xtensa: provide dummy gcc intrinsicsMax Filippov
__xtensa_libgcc_window_spill is needed for __builtin_return_address(1), but its libgcc implementation cannot be used as it makes a syscall. Atomic intrinsics are used by single staging driver. Signed-off-by: Max Filippov <jcmvbkbc@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Zankel <chris@zankel.net>
