2005-10-30[PATCH] kdump/i386: apic verification failure fixVivek Goyal
o Removes the unnecessary call to local_irq_disable(). o Kdump was failing while second kernel was coming up. Check for presence of boot cpu apic id was failing in (apic_id_registered), hence hitting BUG(). o This should not have failed because before calling setup_local_APIC(), it is ensured that even if BIOS has not reported boot cpu, then hard set the prence of it. Problem happens because of usage of hard_smp_processor_id() which is hardcoded to zero in case of non SMP kernel. In kdump case second kernel can boot on a cpu whose boot cpu id is not zero. o Using boot_cpu_physical_apicid instead to hard set the presence of boot cpu.

2005-10-30[PATCH] i386 kexec-on-panic: Don't shutdown the apics.Eric W. Biederman
It is dangerous to shutdown the apics in machine_crash_shutdown. With my previous patch to initialize apics in init_IRQ we should be able to boot a kernel without this. As long as we reinitialize the APICs we don't care what state they were in during bootup. This should make machine_crash_shutdown noticeably more reliable. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2005-10-30[PATCH] i386: move apic init in init_IRQsEric W. Biederman
All kinds of ugliness exists because we don't initialize the apics during init_IRQs. - We calibrate jiffies in non apic mode even when we are using apics. - We have to have special code to initialize the apics when non-smp. - The legacy i8259 must exist and be setup correctly, even when we won't use it past initialization. - The kexec on panic code must restore the state of the io_apics. - init/main.c needs a special case for !smp smp_init on x86 In addition to pure code movement I needed a couple of non-obvious changes: - Move setup_boot_APIC_clock into APIC_late_time_init for simplicity. - Use cpu_khz to generate a better approximation of loops_per_jiffies so I can verify the timer interrupt is working. - Call setup_apic_nmi_watchdog again after cpu_khz is initialized on the boot cpu.

2005-10-30[PATCH] i386 io_apic.c: Memorize at bootup where the i8259 is connectedEric W. Biederman
Currently we attempt to restore virtual wire mode on reboot, which only works if we can figure out where the i8259 is connected. This is very useful when we kexec another kernel and likely helpful when dealing with a BIOS that make assumptions about how the system is setup. Since the acpi MADT table does not provide the location where the i8259 is connected we have to look at the hardware to figure it out. Most systems have the i8259 connected the local apic of the cpu so won't be affected but people running Opteron and some serverworks chipsets should be able to use kexec now. In addition this patch removes the hard coded assumption that the io_apic that delivers isa interrups is always known to the kernel as io_apic 0. As there does not appear to be anything to guarantee that assumption is true. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2005-10-30[PATCH] fixup bogus e820 entry with mem=Dave Hansen
This was reported because someone was getting oopses reading /proc/iomem. It was tracked down to a zero-sized 'struct resource' entry which was located right at 4GB. You need two conditions to hit this bug: a BIOS E820_RAM area starting at exactly the boundary where you specify mem= (to get a zero-sized entry), and for the legacy_init_iomem_resources() loop to skip that resource (which only happens at exactly 4G). I think the killing zero-sized e820 entry is the easiest way to fix this.

In the specific case of an Intel P4 running at 3001.171 Mhz, the truncation to 3001 Mhz leads to an imprecision of 19 microseconds per second : this is very sad for a timer with nearly nanosecond accuracy.

2005-10-29[PATCH] memory hotplug locking: node_size_lockDave Hansen
pgdat->node_size_lock is basically only neeeded in one place in the normal code: show_mem(), which is the arch-specific sysrq-m printing function. Strictly speaking, the architectures not doing memory hotplug do no need this locking in show_mem(). However, they are all included for completeness. This should also make any future consolidation of all of the implementations a little more straightforward. This lock is also held in the sparsemem code during a memory removal, as sections are invalidated. This is the place there pfn_valid() is made false for a memory area that's being removed. The lock is only required when doing pfn_valid() operations on memory which the user does not already have a reference on the page, such as in show_mem().

2005-10-29[PATCH] mm: split page table lockHugh Dickins
Christoph Lameter demonstrated very poor scalability on the SGI 512-way, with a many-threaded application which concurrently initializes different parts of a large anonymous area. This patch corrects that, by using a separate spinlock per page table page, to guard the page table entries in that page, instead of using the mm's single page_table_lock. (But even then, page_table_lock is still used to guard page table allocation, and anon_vma allocation.) In this implementation, the spinlock is tucked inside the struct page of the page table page: with a BUILD_BUG_ON in case it overflows - which it would in the case of 32-bit PA-RISC with spinlock debugging enabled. Splitting the lock is not quite for free: another cacheline access. Ideally, I suppose we would use split ptlock only for multi-threaded processes on multi-cpu machines; but deciding that dynamically would have its own costs. So for now enable it by config, at some number of cpus - since the Kconfig language doesn't support inequalities, let preprocessor compare that with NR_CPUS. But I don't think it's worth being user-configurable: for good testing of both split and unsplit configs, split now at 4 cpus, and perhaps change that to 8 later. There is a benefit even for singly threaded processes: kswapd can be attacking one part of the mm while another part is busy faulting.

The sh __do_page_fault: which handles both kernel faults (without lock) and user mm faults (locked - though it set_pte without locking before). The sh64 flush_cache_range and helpers: which wrongly thought callers held page_table_lock before (only its tlb_start_vma did, and no longer does so); moved the flush loop down, and adjusted the large versus small range decision to consider a range which spans page tables as large.

2005-10-29[PATCH] mm: kill check_user_page_readableHugh Dickins
check_user_page_readable is a problematic variant of follow_page. It's used only by oprofile's i386 and arm backtrace code, at interrupt time, to establish whether a userspace stackframe is currently readable. This is problematic, because we want to push the page_table_lock down inside follow_page, and later split it; whereas oprofile is doing a spin_trylock on it (in the i386 case, forgotten in the arm case), and needs that to pin perhaps two pages spanned by the stackframe (which might be covered by different locks when we split). I think oprofile is going about this in the wrong way: it doesn't need to know the area is readable (neither i386 nor arm uses read protection of user pages), it doesn't need to pin the memory, it should simply __copy_from_user_inatomic, and see if that succeeds or not. Sorry, but I've not got around to devising the sparse __user annotations for this. Then we can eliminate check_user_page_readable, and return to a single follow_page without the __follow_page variants.

2005-10-29[PATCH] mm: init_mm without ptlockHugh Dickins
First step in pushing down the page_table_lock. init_mm.page_table_lock has been used throughout the architectures (usually for ioremap): not to serialize kernel address space allocation (that's usually vmlist_lock), but because pud_alloc,pmd_alloc,pte_alloc_kernel expect caller holds it. Reverse that: don't lock or unlock init_mm.page_table_lock in any of the architectures; instead rely on pud_alloc,pmd_alloc,pte_alloc_kernel to take and drop it when allocating a new one, to check lest a racing task already did. Similarly no page_table_lock in vmalloc's map_vm_area. Some temporary ugliness in __pud_alloc and __pmd_alloc: since they also handle user mms, which are converted only by a later patch, for now they have to lock differently according to whether or not it's init_mm. If sources get muddled, there's a danger that an arch source taking init_mm.page_table_lock will be mixed with common source also taking it (or neither take it). So break the rules and make another change, which should break the build for such a mismatch: remove the redundant mm arg from pte_alloc_kernel (ppc64 scrapped its distinct ioremap_mm in 2.6.13). Exceptions: arm26 used pte_alloc_kernel on user mm, now pte_alloc_map; ia64 used pte_alloc_map on init_mm, now pte_alloc_kernel; parisc had bad args to pmd_alloc and pte_alloc_kernel in unused USE_HPPA_IOREMAP code; ppc64 map_io_page forgot to unlock on failure; ppc mmu_mapin_ram and ppc64 im_free took page_table_lock for no good reason.

2005-10-28[PATCH] PCI fixup for Toshiba laptops and ohci1394Jesse Barnes
This is a fix for a bug I see on my Toshiba laptop, where the ohci1394 controller gets initialized improperly. The patch adds two PCI fixups to arch/i386/pci/fixup.c, one that happens early on to cache the value of the PCI_CACHE_LINE_SIZE config register, and another that later restores the value, along with a valid IRQ number and some BAR values. I've tested it on my laptop, and it prevents me from running into what I consider to be a major bug: IRQ 11 is disabled by the IRQ debug code, causing my wireless to break. Thanks to Rob for the original patch to ohci1394.c and Stefan for lots of proofreading (and a last minute bug caught in review!) and additional information collection.

Both requests happen, but the southbridge hardware only acknowledges the C-state change. The PowerNow! driver is then stuck in a loop, waiting for the P-state change acknowledgement. The driver eventually times out, but can no longer perform P-state changes. It turns out the solution is to resend the P-state change, which the southbridge will acknowledge normally.

Although there is no documentation available for Cyrix MII, I did find erratum F-7 for Winchip C6, "FPU instruction may result in spurious exception under certain conditions" which seems to indicate that this can happen. That would also explain the behaviour Ondrej Zary reported on the MII. Signed-off-by: Chuck Ebbert <76306.1226@compuserve.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-09-10[PATCH] i386 / uml: add dwarf sections to static link scriptPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
Inside the linker script, insert the code for DWARF debug info sections. This may help GDB'ing a Uml binary. Actually, it seems that ld is able to guess what I added correctly, but normal linker scripts include this section so it should be correct anyway adding it. On request by Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>, I've added it to asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.s. I've also moved there the stabs debug section, used the new macro in i386 linker script and added DWARF debug section to that. In the truth, I've not been able to verify the difference in GDB behaviour after this change (I've seen large improvements with another patch). This may depend on my binutils version, older one may have worse defaults. However, this section is present in normal linker script, so add it at least for the sake of cleanness.
