2009-09-11agp/intel: Fix the pre-9xx chipset flush.Eric Anholt
Ever since we enabled GEM, the pre-9xx chipsets (particularly 865) have had serious stability issues. Back in May a wbinvd was added to the DRM to work around much of the problem. Some failure remained -- easily visible by dragging a window around on an X -retro desktop, or by looking at bugzilla. The chipset flush was on the right track -- hitting the right amount of memory, and it appears to be the only way to flush on these chipsets, but the flush page was mapped uncached. As a result, the writes trying to clear the writeback cache ended up bypassing the cache, and not flushing anything! The wbinvd would flush out other writeback data and often cause the data we wanted to get flushed, but not always. By removing the setting of the page to UC and instead just clflushing the data we write to try to flush it, we get the desired behavior with no wbinvd. This exports clflush_cache_range(), which was laying around and happened to basically match the code I was otherwise going to copy from the DRM.

2009-09-04sparc64: Fix bootup with mcount in some configs.David S. Miller
Functions invoked early when booting up a cpu can't use tracing because mcount requires a valid 'current_thread_info()' and TLB mappings to be setup. The code path of sun4v_register_mondo_queues --> register_one_mondo is one such case. sun4v_register_mondo_queues already has the necessary 'notrace' annotation, but register_one_mondo does not. Normally register_one_mondo is inlined so the bug doesn't trigger, but with some config/compiler combinations, it won't be so we must properly mark it notrace. While we're here, add 'notrace' annoations to prom_printf and prom_halt so that early error handling won't have the same problem.

2009-09-03sparc64: Kill spurious NMI watchdog triggers by increasing limit to 30 seconds.David S. Miller
This is a compromise and a temporary workaround for bootup NMI watchdog triggers some people see with qla2xxx devices present. This happens when, for example: CPU 0 is in the driver init and looping submitting mailbox commands to load the firmware, then waiting for completion. CPU 1 is receiving the device interrupts. CPU 1 is where the NMI watchdog triggers. CPU 0 is submitting mailbox commands fast enough that by the time CPU 1 returns from the device interrupt handler, a new one is pending. This sequence runs for more than 5 seconds. The problematic case is CPU 1's timer interrupt running when the barrage of device interrupts begin. Then we have: timer interrupt return for softirq checking pending, thus enable interrupts qla2xxx interrupt return qla2xxx interrupt return ... 5+ seconds pass final qla2xxx interrupt for fw load return run timer softirq return At some point in the multi-second qla2xxx interrupt storm we trigger the NMI watchdog on CPU 1 from the NMI interrupt handler. The timer softirq, once we get back to running it, is smart enough to run the timer work enough times to make up for the missed timer interrupts. However, the NMI watchdogs (both x86 and sparc) use the timer interrupt count to notice the cpu is wedged. But in the above scenerio we'll receive only one such timer interrupt even if we last all the way back to running the timer softirq. The default watchdog trigger point is only 5 seconds, which is pretty low (the softwatchdog triggers at 60 seconds). So increase it to 30 seconds for now. Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-08-25sparc64: Validate linear D-TLB misses.David S. Miller
When page alloc debugging is not enabled, we essentially accept any virtual address for linear kernel TLB misses. But with kgdb, kernel address probing, and other facilities we can try to access arbitrary crap. So, make sure the address we miss on will translate to physical memory that actually exists. In order to make this work we have to embed the valid address bitmap into the kernel image. And in order to make that less expensive we make an adjustment, in that the max physical memory address is decreased to "1 << 41", even on the chips that support a 42-bit physical address space. We can do this because bit 41 indicates "I/O space" and thus covers non-memory ranges. The result of this is that: 1) kpte_linear_bitmap shrinks from 2K to 1K in size 2) we need 64K more for the valid address bitmap We can't let the valid address bitmap be dynamically allocated once we start using it to validate TLB misses, otherwise we have crazy issues to deal with wrt. recursive TLB misses and such. If we're in a TLB miss it could be the deepest trap level that's legal inside of the cpu. So if we TLB miss referencing the bitmap, the cpu will be out of trap levels and enter RED state. To guard against out-of-range accesses to the bitmap, we have to check to make sure no bits in the physical address above bit 40 are set. We could export and use last_valid_pfn for this check, but that's just an unnecessary extra memory reference. On the plus side of all this, since we load all of these translations into the special 4MB mapping TSB, and we check the TSB first for TLB misses, there should be absolutely no real cost for these new checks in the TLB miss path.

2009-08-25x86: Fix build with older binutils and consolidate linker scriptJan Beulich
binutils prior to 2.17 can't deal with the currently possible situation of a new segment following the per-CPU segment, but that new segment being empty - objcopy misplaces the .bss (and perhaps also the .brk) sections outside of any segment. However, the current ordering of sections really just appears to be the effect of cumulative unrelated changes; re-ordering things allows to easily guarantee that the segment following the per-CPU one is non-empty, and at once eliminates the need for the bogus data.init2 segment. Once touching this code, also use the various data section helper macros from include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h. -v2: fix !SMP builds.

2009-08-21x86: don't call '->send_IPI_mask()' with an empty maskLinus Torvalds
As noted in 83d349f35e1ae72268c5104dbf9ab2ae635425d4 ("x86: don't send an IPI to the empty set of CPU's"), some APIC's will be very unhappy with an empty destination mask. That commit added a WARN_ON() for that case, and avoided the resulting problem, but didn't fix the underlying reason for why those empty mask cases happened. This fixes that, by checking the result of 'cpumask_andnot()' of the current CPU actually has any other CPU's left in the set of CPU's to be sent a TLB flush, and not calling down to the IPI code if the mask is empty. The reason this started happening at all is that we started passing just the CPU mask pointers around in commit 4595f9620 ("x86: change flush_tlb_others to take a const struct cpumask"), and when we did that, the cpumask was no longer thread-local. Before that commit, flush_tlb_mm() used to create it's own copy of 'mm->cpu_vm_mask' and pass that copy down to the low-level flush routines after having tested that it was not empty. But after changing it to just pass down the CPU mask pointer, the lower level TLB flush routines would now get a pointer to that 'mm->cpu_vm_mask', and that could still change - and become empty - after the test due to other CPU's having flushed their own TLB's.

2009-08-21x86: don't send an IPI to the empty set of CPU'sLinus Torvalds
The default_send_IPI_mask_logical() function uses the "flat" APIC mode to send an IPI to a set of CPU's at once, but if that set happens to be empty, some older local APIC's will apparently be rather unhappy. So just warn if a caller gives us an empty mask, and ignore it. This fixes a regression in 2.6.30.x, due to commit 4595f9620 ("x86: change flush_tlb_others to take a const struct cpumask"), documented here: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13933 which causes a silent lock-up. It only seems to happen on PPro, P2, P3 and Athlon XP cores. Most developers sadly (or not so sadly, if you're a developer..) have more modern CPU's. Also, on x86-64 we don't use the flat APIC mode, so it would never trigger there even if the APIC didn't like sending an empty IPI mask.

This will result in C and A come to the rendezvous point and waiting for B. B is stuck forever waiting for the spinlock and thus not reaching the rendezvous point. Fix the clockevents code so that clockevents_lock is taken with interrupts disabled and thus avoid the above deadlock. Also call lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast() on the destination cpu so that we avoid calling smp_call_function() in the clockevents notifier chain. This issue left us wondering if we need to change the MTRR rendezvous logic to use stop machine logic (instead of smp_call_function) or add a check in spinlock debug code to see if there are other spinlocks which gets taken under both interrupts enabled/disabled conditions.

2009-08-18sparc32: Kill trap table freeing code.David S. Miller
Normally, srmmu uses different trap table register values to allow determination of the cpu we're on. All of the trap tables have identical content, they just sit at different offsets from the first trap table, and the offset shifted down and masked out determines the cpu we are on. The code tries to free them up when they aren't actually used (don't have all 4 cpus, we're on sun4d, etc.) but that causes problems. For one thing it triggers false positives in the DMA debugging code. And fixing that up while preserving this relative offset thing isn't trivial. So just kill the freeing code, it costs us at most 3 pages, big deal... Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-08-18sparc: sys32.S incorrect compat-layer splice() system callMathieu Desnoyers
I think arch/sparc/kernel/sys32.S has an incorrect splice definition: SIGN2(sys32_splice, sys_splice, %o0, %o1) The splice() prototype looks like : long splice(int fd_in, loff_t *off_in, int fd_out, loff_t *off_out, size_t len, unsigned int flags); So I think we should have : SIGN2(sys32_splice, sys_splice, %o0, %o2) Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@polymtl.ca> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-08-18i386: Fix section mismatches for init code with !HOTPLUG_CPUJan Beulich
Commit 0e83815be719d3391bf5ea24b7fe696c07dbd417 changed the section the initial_code variable gets allocated in, in an attempt to address a section conflict warning. This, however created a new section conflict when building without HOTPLUG_CPU. The apparently only (reasonable) way to address this is to always use __REFDATA. Once at it, also fix a second section mismatch when not using HOTPLUG_CPU.
