2007-06-20x86: change_page_attr bandaidsAndi Kleen
- Disable CLFLUSH again; it is still broken. Always do WBINVD. - Always flush in the i386 case, not only when there are deferred pages. These are both brute-force inefficient fixes, to be improved next release cycle. The changes to i386 are a little more extensive than strictly needed (some dead code added), but it is more similar to the x86-64 version now and the dead code will be used soon.

So if a userland program jumps to a page with Linux protection flags "---p", all the tests happily fall through, and handle_mm_fault() is called, which in turn calls handle_pte_fault(), which calls update_mmu_cache(), which goes flush the dcache to a page with no access rights.

2007-06-19[POWERPC] Fix snd-powermac refcounting bugsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The old snd-powermac driver has some serious refcounting issues when initialisation fails, which is the case on all new machines with a layout-id since those are handled by the new snd-aoa driver. Some of those bugs seem to have been under the radar for some time (like double pci_dev_put), but one was actually added in 2.6.22 with Stephen attempt at teaching refcounting to the driver which didn't do it at all. This patch fixes both, thus removing all sort of kref errors that would happen if that driver gets loaded on a G5 machine or a recent PowerBook due to OF nodes left around with a 0 refcount.

2007-06-18Fix possible runqueue lock starvation in wait_task_inactive()Linus Torvalds
Miklos Szeredi reported very long pauses (several seconds, sometimes more) on his T60 (with a Core2Duo) which he managed to track down to wait_task_inactive()'s open-coded busy-loop. He observed that an interrupt on one core tries to acquire the runqueue-lock but does not succeed in doing so for a very long time - while wait_task_inactive() on the other core loops waiting for the first core to deschedule a task (which it wont do while spinning in an interrupt handler). This rewrites wait_task_inactive() to do all its waiting optimistically without any locks taken at all, and then just double-check the end result with the proper runqueue lock held over just a very short section. If there were races in the optimistic wait, of a preemption event scheduled the process away, we simply re-synchronize, and start over. So the code now looks like this: repeat: /* Unlocked, optimistic looping! */ rq = task_rq(p); while (task_running(rq, p)) cpu_relax(); /* Get the *real* values */ rq = task_rq_lock(p, &flags); running = task_running(rq, p); array = p->array; task_rq_unlock(rq, &flags); /* Check them.. */ if (unlikely(running)) { cpu_relax(); goto repeat; } /* Preempted away? Yield if so.. */ if (unlikely(array)) { yield(); goto repeat; } Basically, that first "while()" loop is done entirely without any locking at all (and doesn't check for the case where the target process might have been preempted away), and so it's possibly "incorrect", but we don't really care. Both the runqueue used, and the "task_running()" check might be the wrong tests, but they won't oops - they just mean that we could possibly get the wrong results due to lack of locking and exit the loop early in the case of a race condition. So once we've exited the loop, we then get the proper (and careful) rq lock, and check the running/runnable state _safely_. And if it turns out that our quick-and-dirty and unsafe loop was wrong after all, we just go back and try it all again. (The patch also adds a lot of comments, which is the actual bulk of it all, to make it more obvious why we can do these things without holding the locks). Thanks to Miklos for all the testing and tracking it down.

2007-06-18sched: fix SysRq-N (normalize RT tasks)Ingo Molnar
Gene Heskett reported the following problem while testing CFS: SysRq-N is not always effective in normalizing tasks back to SCHED_OTHER. The reason for that turns out to be the following bug: - normalize_rt_tasks() uses for_each_process() to iterate through all tasks in the system. The problem is, this method does not iterate through all tasks, it iterates through all thread groups. The proper mechanism to enumerate over all threads is to use a do_each_thread() + while_each_thread() loop.

2007-06-18Revert "futex_requeue_pi optimization"Thomas Gleixner
This reverts commit d0aa7a70bf03b9de9e995ab272293be1f7937822. It not only introduced user space visible changes to the futex syscall, it is also non-functional and there is no way to fix it proper before the 2.6.22 release. The breakage report ( http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/5/12/17 ) went unanswered, and unfortunately it turned out that the concept is not feasible at all. It violates the rtmutex semantics badly by introducing a virtual owner, which hacks around the coupling of the user-space pi_futex and the kernel internal rt_mutex representation. At the moment the only safe option is to remove it fully as it contains user-space visible changes to broken kernel code, which we do not want to expose in the 2.6.22 release. The patch reverts the original patch mostly 1:1, but contains a couple of trivial manual cleanups which were necessary due to patches, which touched the same area of code later. Verified against the glibc tests and my own PI futex tests.

Inline data segments in send WQEs are not allowed to cross a 64 byte boundary. We use inline data segments to hold the UD headers for MLX QPs (QP0 and QP1).

The calculation of max_inline_data in set_kernel_sq_size() is bogus, since it doesn't take into account the fact that inline segments may not cross a 64-byte boundary, and hence multiple inline segments will probably need to be used to post large inline sends.

Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2007-06-18IB/mlx4: Handle new FW requirement for send request prefetchingRoland Dreier
New ConnectX firmware introduces FW command interface revision 2, which requires that for each QP, a chunk of send queue entries (the "headroom") is kept marked as invalid, so that the HCA doesn't get confused if it prefetches entries that haven't been posted yet. Add code to the driver to do this, and also update the user ABI so that userspace can request that the prefetcher be turned off for userspace QPs (we just leave the prefetcher on for all kernel QPs). Unfortunately, marking send queue entries this way is confuses older firmware, so we change the driver to allow only FW command interface revisions 2. This means that users will have to update their firmware to work with the new driver, but the firmware is changing quickly and the old firmware has lots of other bugs anyway, so this shouldn't be too big a deal.

2007-06-16shm: fix the filename of hugetlb sysv shared memoryEric W. Biederman
Some user space tools need to identify SYSV shared memory when examining /proc/<pid>/maps. To do so they look for a block device with major zero, a dentry named SYSV<sysv key>, and having the minor of the internal sysv shared memory kernel mount. To help these tools and to make it easier for people just browsing /proc/<pid>/maps this patch modifies hugetlb sysv shared memory to use the SYSV<key> dentry naming convention. User space tools will still have to be aware that hugetlb sysv shared memory lives on a different internal kernel mount and so has a different block device minor number from the rest of sysv shared memory.

2007-06-16hugetlb: fix get_policy for stacked shared memory filesAdam Litke
Here's another breakage as a result of shared memory stacked files :( The NUMA policy for a VMA is determined by checking the following (in the order given): 1) vma->vm_ops->get_policy() (if defined) 2) vma->vm_policy (if defined) 3) task->mempolicy (if defined) 4) Fall back to default_policy By switching to stacked files for shared memory, get_policy() is now always set to shm_get_policy which is a wrapper function. This causes us to stop at step 1, which yields NULL for hugetlb instead of task->mempolicy which was the previous (and correct) result. This patch modifies the shm_get_policy() wrapper to maintain steps 1-3 for the wrapped vm_ops.

2007-06-16udf: fix possible leakage of blocksJan Kara
We have to take care that when we call udf_discard_prealloc() from udf_clear_inode() we have to write inode ourselves afterwards (otherwise, some changes might be lost leading to leakage of blocks, use of free blocks or improperly aligned extents). Also udf_discard_prealloc() does two different things - it removes preallocated blocks and truncates the last extent to exactly match i_size. We move the latter functionality to udf_truncate_tail_extent(), call udf_discard_prealloc() when last reference to a file is dropped and call udf_truncate_tail_extent() when inode is being removed from inode cache (udf_clear_inode() call). We cannot call udf_truncate_tail_extent() earlier as subsequent open+write would find the last block of the file mapped and happily write to the end of it, although the last extent says it's shorter.

2007-06-16SLUB: minimum alignment fixesChristoph Lameter
If ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is set to a value greater than 8 (SLUBs smallest kmalloc cache) then SLUB may generate duplicate slabs in sysfs (yes again) because the object size is padded to reach ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN. Thus the size of the small slabs is all the same. No arch sets ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN larger than 8 though except mips which for some reason wants a 128 byte alignment. This patch increases the size of the smallest cache if ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is greater than 8. In that case more and more of the smallest caches are disabled. If we do that then the count of the active general caches that is displayed on boot is not correct anymore since we may skip elements of the kmalloc array. So count them separately. This approach was tested by Havard yesterday.

2007-06-16Rework ptep_set_access_flags and fix sun4cBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Some changes done a while ago to avoid pounding on ptep_set_access_flags and update_mmu_cache in some race situations break sun4c which requires update_mmu_cache() to always be called on minor faults. This patch reworks ptep_set_access_flags() semantics, implementations and callers so that it's now responsible for returning whether an update is necessary or not (basically whether the PTE actually changed). This allow fixing the sparc implementation to always return 1 on sun4c.

2007-06-16random: fix output buffer foldingMatt Mackall
(As reported by linux@horizon.com) Folding is done to minimize the theoretical possibility of systematic weakness in the particular bits of the SHA1 hash output. The result of this bug is that 16 out of 80 bits are un-folded. Without a major new vulnerability being found in SHA1, this is harmless, but still worth fixing.

2007-06-16uml: kill x86_64 STACK_TOP_MAXJeff Dike
The x86_64 a.out.h got a definition of STACK_TOP_MAX, which interferes with the UML version. So, just undef it like STACK_TOP. Signed-off-by: Jeff Dike <jdike@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2007-06-16uml: remove PAGE_SIZE from libc codeJeff Dike
Distros seem to be removing PAGE_SIZE from asm/page.h. So, the libc side of UML should stop using it. I replace it with UM_KERN_PAGE_SIZE, which is defined to be the same as PAGE_SIZE on the kernel side of the house. I could also use getpagesize(), but it's more important that UML have the same value of PAGE_SIZE everywhere. It's conceivable that it could be built with a larger PAGE_SIZE, and use of getpagesize() would break that badly. PAGE_MASK got the same treatment, as it is closely tied to PAGE_SIZE.

2007-06-16spi doc updatesDavid Brownell
Update two points in the SPI interface documentation: - Update description of the "chip stays selected after message ends" mode. In some cases it's required for correctness; it isn't just a performance tweak. (Yes: to use this mode on mult-device busses, another programming interface will be needed. One draft has been circulated already.) - Clarify spi_setup(), highlighting that callers must ensure that no requests are queued (can't change configuration except between I/Os), and that the device must be deselected when this returns (which is a key part of why it's called during device init).
