Interrupts must be disabled during alternative instruction patching. On systems with high timer IRQ rates, or when running in an emulator, timing differences can result in random kernel panics because of running partially patched instructions. This doesn't yet fix NMIs, which requires extricating the patch code from the late bug checking and is logically separate (and also less likely to cause problems).

2006-10-20[PATCH] separate bdi congestion functions from queue congestion functionsAndrew Morton
Separate out the concept of "queue congestion" from "backing-dev congestion". Congestion is a backing-dev concept, not a queue concept. The blk_* congestion functions are retained, as wrappers around the core backing-dev congestion functions. This proper layering is needed so that NFS can cleanly use the congestion functions, and so that CONFIG_BLOCK=n actually links.

2006-10-18PCI: optionally sort device lists breadth-firstMatt Domsch
Problem: New Dell PowerEdge servers have 2 embedded ethernet ports, which are labeled NIC1 and NIC2 on the chassis, in the BIOS setup screens, and in the printed documentation. Assuming no other add-in ethernet ports in the system, Linux 2.4 kernels name these eth0 and eth1 respectively. Many people have come to expect this naming. Linux 2.6 kernels name these eth1 and eth0 respectively (backwards from expectations). I also have reports that various Sun and HP servers have similar behavior. Root cause: Linux 2.4 kernels walk the pci_devices list, which happens to be sorted in breadth-first order (or pcbios_find_device order on i386, which most often is breadth-first also). 2.6 kernels have both the pci_devices list and the pci_bus_type.klist_devices list, the latter is what is walked at driver load time to match the pci_id tables; this klist happens to be in depth-first order. On systems where, for physical routing reasons, NIC1 appears on a lower bus number than NIC2, but NIC2's bridge is discovered first in the depth-first ordering, NIC2 will be discovered before NIC1. If the list were sorted breadth-first, NIC1 would be discovered before NIC2. A PowerEdge 1955 system has the following topology which easily exhibits the difference between depth-first and breadth-first device lists. -[0000:00]-+-00.0 Intel Corporation 5000P Chipset Memory Controller Hub +-02.0-[0000:03-08]--+-00.0-[0000:04-07]--+-00.0-[0000:05-06]----00.0-[0000:06]----00.0 Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708S Gigabit Ethernet (labeled NIC2, 2.4 kernel name eth1, 2.6 kernel name eth0) +-1c.0-[0000:01-02]----00.0-[0000:02]----00.0 Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708S Gigabit Ethernet (labeled NIC1, 2.4 kernel name eth0, 2.6 kernel name eth1) Other factors, such as device driver load order and the presence of PCI slots at various points in the bus hierarchy further complicate this problem; I'm not trying to solve those here, just restore the device order, and thus basic behavior, that 2.4 kernels had. Solution: The solution can come in multiple steps. Suggested fix #1: kernel Patch below optionally sorts the two device lists into breadth-first ordering to maintain compatibility with 2.4 kernels. It adds two new command line options: pci=bfsort pci=nobfsort to force the sort order, or not, as you wish. It also adds DMI checks for the specific Dell systems which exhibit "backwards" ordering, to make them "right". Suggested fix #2: udev rules from userland Many people also have the expectation that embedded NICs are always discovered before add-in NICs (which this patch does not try to do). Using the PCI IRQ Routing Table provided by system BIOS, it's easy to determine which PCI devices are embedded, or if add-in, which PCI slot they're in. I'm working on a tool that would allow udev to name ethernet devices in ascending embedded, slot 1 .. slot N order, subsort by PCI bus/dev/fn breadth-first. It'll be possible to use it independent of udev as well for those distributions that don't use udev in their installers. Suggested fix #3: system board routing rules One can constrain the system board layout to put NIC1 ahead of NIC2 regardless of breadth-first or depth-first discovery order. This adds a significant level of complexity to board routing, and may not be possible in all instances (witness the above systems from several major manufacturers). I don't want to encourage this particular train of thought too far, at the expense of not doing #1 or #2 above. Feedback appreciated. Patch tested on a Dell PowerEdge 1955 blade with 2.6.18. You'll also note I took some liberty and temporarily break the klist abstraction to simplify and speed up the sort algorithm. I think that's both safe and appropriate in this instance.

2006-10-18PCI: Turn pci_fixup_video into generic for embedded VGAeiichiro.oiwa.nm@hitachi.com
pci_fixup_video turns into generic code because there are many platforms need this fixup for embedded VGA as well as x86. The Video BIOS integrates into System BIOS on a machine has embedded VGA although embedded VGA generally don't have PCI ROM. As a result, embedded VGA need the way that the sysfs rom points to the Video BIOS of System RAM (0xC0000). PCI-to-PCI Bridge Architecture specification describes the condition whether or not PCI ROM forwards VGA compatible memory address. fixup_video suits this specification. Although the Video ROM generally implements in x86 code regardless of platform, some application such as X Window System can run this code by dosemu86. Therefore, pci_fixup_video should turn into generic code.

2006-10-17[PATCH] i386 Time: Avoid PIT SMP lockupsjohn stultz
Avoid possible PIT livelock issues seen on SMP systems (and reported by Andi), by not allowing it as a clocksource on SMP boxes. However, since the PIT may no longer be present, we have to properly handle the cases where SMP systems have TSC skew and fall back from the TSC. Since the PIT isn't there, it would "fall back" to the TSC again. So this changes the jiffies rating to 1, and the TSC-bad rating value to 0. Thus you will get the following behavior priority on i386 systems: tsc [if present & stable] hpet [if present] cyclone [if present] acpi_pm [if present] pit [if UP] jiffies Rather then the current more complicated: tsc [if present & stable] hpet [if present] cyclone [if present] acpi_pm [if present] pit [if cpus < 4] tsc [if present & unstable] jiffies Signed-off-by: John Stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-10-14ACPI: SCI interrupt source overrideKimball Murray
The Linux group at Stratus Technologies has come across an issue with SCI routing under ACPI. We were bitten by this when we made an x86_64 platform whose BIOS provides an Interrupt Source Override for the SCI itself. Apparently the override has no effect for the System Control Interrupt, and this appears to be because of the way the SCI is setup in the ACPI code. It does not handle the case where busirq != gsi. The code that sets up the SCI routing assumes that bus irq == global irq. So there is simply no provision for telling it otherwise. The attached patch provides this mechanism. This patch provided by David Bulkow, was tested on an i386 platform, which does not use the SCI override, and also on an x86_64 platform which does use an override.

2006-10-14ACPI: Processor native C-states using MWAITVenkatesh Pallipadi
Intel processors starting with the Core Duo support support processor native C-state using the MWAIT instruction. Refer: Intel Architecture Software Developer's Manual http://www.intel.com/design/Pentium4/manuals/253668.htm Platform firmware exports the support for Native C-state to OS using ACPI _PDC and _CST methods. Refer: Intel Processor Vendor-Specific ACPI: Interface Specification http://www.intel.com/technology/iapc/acpi/downloads/302223.htm With Processor Native C-state, we use 'MWAIT' instruction on the processor to enter different C-states (C1, C2, C3). We won't use the special IO ports to enter C-state and no SMM mode etc required to enter C-state. Overall this will mean better C-state support. One major advantage of using MWAIT for all C-states is, with this and "treat interrupt as break event" feature of MWAIT, we can now get accurate timing for the time spent in C1, C2, .. states.

2006-10-11[PATCH] epoll_pwait()Davide Libenzi
Implement the epoll_pwait system call, that extend the event wait mechanism with the same logic ppoll and pselect do. The definition of epoll_pwait is: int epoll_pwait(int epfd, struct epoll_event *events, int maxevents, int timeout, const sigset_t *sigmask, size_t sigsetsize); The difference between the vanilla epoll_wait and epoll_pwait is that the latter allows the caller to specify a signal mask to be set while waiting for events. Hence epoll_pwait will wait until either one monitored event, or an unmasked signal happen. If sigmask is NULL, the epoll_pwait system call will act exactly like epoll_wait.

2006-10-11[PATCH] mm: use symbolic names instead of indices for zone initialisationMel Gorman
Arch-independent zone-sizing is using indices instead of symbolic names to offset within an array related to zones (max_zone_pfns). The unintended impact is that ZONE_DMA and ZONE_NORMAL is initialised on powerpc instead of ZONE_DMA and ZONE_HIGHMEM when CONFIG_HIGHMEM is set. As a result, the the machine fails to boot but will boot with CONFIG_HIGHMEM turned off. The following patch properly initialises the max_zone_pfns[] array and uses symbolic names instead of indices in each architecture using arch-independent zone-sizing. Two users have successfully booted their powerpcs with it (one an ibook G4). It has also been boot tested on x86, x86_64, ppc64 and ia64. Please merge for 2.6.19-rc2.

2006-10-05IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

2006-10-04[PATCH] htirq: tidy up the htirq codeEric W. Biederman
This moves the declarations for the architecture helpers into include/linux/htirq.h from the generic include/linux/pci.h. Hopefully this will make this distinction clearer. htirq.h is included where it is needed. The dependency on the msi code is fixed and removed. The Makefile is tidied up. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-10-04[PATCH] msi: refactor and move the msi irq_chip into the arch codeEric W. Biederman
It turns out msi_ops was simply not enough to abstract the architecture specific details of msi. So I have moved the resposibility of constructing the struct irq_chip to the architectures, and have two architecture specific functions arch_setup_msi_irq, and arch_teardown_msi_irq. For simple architectures those functions can do all of the work. For architectures with platform dependencies they can call into the appropriate platform code. With this msi.c is finally free of assuming you have an apic, and this actually takes less code. The helpers for the architecture specific code are declared in the linux/msi.h to keep them separate from the msi functions used by drivers in linux/pci.h Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-10-04[PATCH] Initial generic hypertransport interrupt supportEric W. Biederman
This patch implements two functions ht_create_irq and ht_destroy_irq for use by drivers. Several other functions are implemented as helpers for arch specific irq_chip handlers. The driver for the card I tested this on isn't yet ready to be merged. However this code is and hypertransport irqs are in use in a few other places in the kernel. Not that any of this will get merged before 2.6.19 Because the ipath-ht400 is slightly out of spec this code will need to be generalized to work there. I think all of the powerpc uses are for a plain interrupt controller in a chipset so support for native hypertransport devices is a little less interesting. However I think this is a half way decent model on how to separate arch specific and generic helper code, and I think this is a functional model of how to get the architecture dependencies out of the msi code.

2006-10-04[PATCH] genirq: i386 irq: Remove the msi assumption that irq == vectorEric W. Biederman
This patch removes the change in behavior of the irq allocation code when CONFIG_PCI_MSI is defined. Removing all instances of the assumption that irq == vector. create_irq is rewritten to first allocate a free irq and then to assign that irq a vector. assign_irq_vector is made static and the AUTO_ASSIGN case which allocates an vector not bound to an irq is removed. The ioapic vector methods are removed, and everything now works with irqs. The definition of NR_IRQS no longer depends on CONFIG_PCI_MSI [akpm@osdl.org: cleanup] Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-10-04[PATCH] genirq: i386 irq: Move msi message composition into io_apic.cEric W. Biederman
This removes the hardcoded assumption that irq == vector in the msi composition code, and it allows the msi message composition to setup logical mode, or lowest priorirty delivery mode as we do for other apic interrupts, and with the same selection criteria. Basically this moves the problem of what is in the msi message into the architecture irq management code where it belongs. Not in a generic layer that doesn't have enough information to compose msi messages properly. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-10-04[PATCH] genirq: i386 irq: Dynamic irq supportEric W. Biederman
The current implementation of create_irq() is a hack but it is the current hack that msi.c uses, and unfortunately the ``generic'' apic msi ops depend on this hack. Thus we are stuck this hack of assuming irq == vector until the depencencies in the generic msi code are removed. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-10-04[PATCH] genirq: msi: simplify the msi irq limit policyEric W. Biederman
Currently we attempt to predict how many irqs we will be able to allocate with msi using pci_vector_resources and some complicated accounting, and then we only allow each device as many irqs as we think are available on average. Only the s2io driver even takes advantage of this feature all other drivers have a fixed number of irqs they need and bail if they can't get them. pci_vector_resources is inaccurate if anyone ever frees an irq. The whole implmentation is racy. The current irq limit policy does not appear to make sense with current drivers. So I have simplified things. We can revisit this we we need a more sophisticated policy. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
