2012-06-15irq/apic: Use config_enabled(CONFIG_SMP) checks to clean up ↵Suresh Siddha
irq_set_affinity() for UP Move the ->irq_set_affinity() routines out of the #ifdef CONFIG_SMP sections and use config_enabled(CONFIG_SMP) checks inside those routines. Thus making those routines simple null stubs for !CONFIG_SMP and retaining those routines with no additional runtime overhead for CONFIG_SMP kernels. Cleans up the ifdef CONFIG_SMP in and around routines related to irq_set_affinity in io_apic and irq_remapping subsystems.

2012-06-08x86/apic: Make cpu_mask_to_apicid() operations check cpu_online_maskAlexander Gordeev
Currently cpu_mask_to_apicid() should not get a offline CPU with the cpumask. Otherwise some apic drivers might try to access non-existent per-cpu variables (i.e. x2apic). In that regard cpu_mask_to_apicid() and cpu_mask_to_apicid_and() operations are inconsistent. This fix makes the two operations do not rely on calling functions and always return the apicid for only online CPUs. As result, the meaning and implementations of cpu_mask_to_apicid() and cpu_mask_to_apicid_and() operations become straight.

2012-06-08x86/apic: Make cpu_mask_to_apicid() operations return error codeAlexander Gordeev
Current cpu_mask_to_apicid() and cpu_mask_to_apicid_and() implementations have few shortcomings: 1. A value returned by cpu_mask_to_apicid() is written to hardware registers unconditionally. Should BAD_APICID get ever returned it will be written to a hardware too. But the value of BAD_APICID is not universal across all hardware in all modes and might cause unexpected results, i.e. interrupts might get routed to CPUs that are not configured to receive it. 2. Because the value of BAD_APICID is not universal it is counter- intuitive to return it for a hardware where it does not make sense (i.e. x2apic). 3. cpu_mask_to_apicid_and() operation is thought as an complement to cpu_mask_to_apicid() that only applies a AND mask on top of a cpumask being passed. Yet, as consequence of 18374d8 commit the two operations are inconsistent in that of: cpu_mask_to_apicid() should not get a offline CPU with the cpumask cpu_mask_to_apicid_and() should not fail and return BAD_APICID These limitations are impossible to realize just from looking at the operations prototypes. Most of these shortcomings are resolved by returning a error code instead of BAD_APICID. As the result, faults are reported back early rather than possibilities to cause a unexpected behaviour exist (in case of [1]). The only exception is setup_timer_IRQ0_pin() routine. Although obviously controversial to this fix, its existing behaviour is preserved to not break the fragile check_timer() and would better addressed in a separate fix.

2012-06-08x86/apic: Avoid useless scanning thru a cpumask in assign_irq_vector()Alexander Gordeev
In case of static vector allocation domains (i.e. flat) if all vector numbers are exhausted, an attempt to assign a new vector will lead to useless scans through all CPUs in the cpumask, even though it is known that each new pass would fail. Make this corner case less painful by letting report whether the vector allocation domain depends on passed arguments or not and stop scanning early. The same could have been achived by introducing a static flag to the apic operations. But let's allow vector_allocation_domain() have more intelligence here and decide dynamically, in case we would need it in the future.

When assigning a new vector it is primarially done by adding 8 to the previously given out vector number. Hence, two consequently allocated vector numbers would likely fall into the same priority level. Try to spread vector numbers to different priority levels better by changing the step from 8 to 16.

2012-06-06x86/x2apic/cluster: Use all the members of one cluster specified in the ↵Suresh Siddha
smp_affinity mask for the interrupt destination If the HW implements round-robin interrupt delivery, this enables multiple cpu's (which are part of the user specified interrupt smp_affinity mask and belong to the same x2apic cluster) to service the interrupt. Also if the platform supports Power Aware Interrupt Routing, then this enables the interrupt to be routed to an idle cpu or a busy cpu depending on the perf/power bias tunable. We are now grouping all the cpu's in a cluster to one vector domain. So that will limit the total number of interrupt sources handled by Linux. Previously we support "cpu-count * available-vectors-per-cpu" interrupt sources but this will now reduce to "cpu-count/16 * available-vectors-per-cpu".

2012-06-06x86/irq: Update irq_cfg domain unless the new affinity is a subset of the ↵Suresh Siddha
current domain Until now, irq_cfg domain is mostly static. Either all CPU's (used by flat mode) or one CPU (first CPU in the irq afffinity mask) to which irq is being migrated (this is used by the rest of apic modes). Upcoming x2apic cluster mode optimization patch allows the irq to be sent to any CPU in the x2apic cluster (if supported by the HW). So irq_cfg domain changes on the fly (depending on which CPU in the x2apic cluster is online). Instead of checking for any intersection between the new irq affinity mask and the current irq_cfg domain, check if the new irq affinity mask is a subset of the current irq_cfg domain. Otherwise proceed with updating the irq_cfg domain aswell as assigning vector's on all the CPUs specified in the new mask. This also cleans up a workaround in updating irq_cfg domain for legacy irq's that are handled by the IO-APIC.

2012-06-01x86, x32, ptrace: Remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL for x32H.J. Lu
When I added x32 ptrace to 3.4 kernel, I also include PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL support for x32 GDB For ARCH_GET_FS/GS, it takes a pointer to int64. But at user level, ARCH_GET_FS/GS takes a pointer to int32. So I have to add x32 ptrace to glibc to handle it with a temporary int64 passed to kernel and copy it back to GDB as int32. Roland suggested that PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL is obsolete and x32 GDB should use fs_base and gs_base fields of user_regs_struct instead. Accordingly, remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL completely from the x32 code to avoid possible memory overrun when pointer to int32 is passed to kernel.

The obvious groups: * Miklos' atomic_open series; kills the damn abuse of ->d_revalidate() by NFS, which was the major stumbling block for all work in that area. * ripping security_file_mmap() and dealing with deadlocks in the area; sanitizing the neighborhood of vm_mmap()/vm_munmap() in general. * ->encode_fh() switched to saner API; insane fake dentry in mm/cleancache.c gone. * assorted annotations in fs (endianness, __user) * parts of Artem's ->s_dirty work (jff2 and reiserfs parts) * ->update_time() work from Josef. * other bits and pieces all over the place. Normally it would've been in two or three pull requests, but signal.git stuff had eaten a lot of time during this cycle ;-/" Fix up trivial conflicts in Documentation/filesystems/vfs.txt (the 'truncate_range' inode method was removed by the VM changes, the VFS update adds an 'update_time()' method), and in fs/btrfs/ulist.[ch] (due to sparse fix added twice, with other changes nearby). * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (95 commits) nfs: don't open in ->d_revalidate vfs: retry last component if opening stale dentry vfs: nameidata_to_filp(): don't throw away file on error vfs: nameidata_to_filp(): inline __dentry_open() vfs: do_dentry_open(): don't put filp vfs: split __dentry_open() vfs: do_last() common post lookup vfs: do_last(): add audit_inode before open vfs: do_last(): only return EISDIR for O_CREAT vfs: do_last(): check LOOKUP_DIRECTORY vfs: do_last(): make ENOENT exit RCU safe vfs: make follow_link check RCU safe vfs: do_last(): use inode variable vfs: do_last(): inline walk_component() vfs: do_last(): make exit RCU safe vfs: split do_lookup() Btrfs: move over to use ->update_time fs: introduce inode operation ->update_time reiserfs: get rid of resierfs_sync_super reiserfs: mark the superblock as dirty a bit later ...
2012-06-01x86: get rid of calling do_notify_resume() when returning to kernel modeAl Viro
If we end up calling do_notify_resume() with !user_mode(refs), it does nothing (do_signal() explicitly bails out and we can't get there with TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME in such situations). Then we jump to resume_userspace_sig, which rechecks the same thing and bails out to resume_kernel, thus breaking the loop. It's easier and cheaper to check *before* calling do_notify_resume() and bail out to resume_kernel immediately. And kill the check in do_signal()... Note that on amd64 we can't get there with !user_mode() at all - asm glue takes care of that.

2012-06-01new helper: signal_delivered()Al Viro
Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler(); called when sigframe has been successfully built. All architectures converted to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one). I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number + siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one, signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() - take one).
