2006-12-07[PATCH] hotplug CPU: clean up hotcpu_notifier() useIngo Molnar
There was lots of #ifdef noise in the kernel due to hotcpu_notifier(fn, prio) not correctly marking 'fn' as used in the !HOTPLUG_CPU case, and thus generating compiler warnings of unused symbols, hence forcing people to add #ifdefs. the compiler can skip truly unused functions just fine: text data bss dec hex filename 1624412 728710 3674856 6027978 5bfaca vmlinux.before 1624412 728710 3674856 6027978 5bfaca vmlinux.after [akpm@osdl.org: topology.c fix] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-12-07[PATCH] kprobes: enable booster on the preemptible kernelMasami Hiramatsu
When we are unregistering a kprobe-booster, we can't release its instruction buffer immediately on the preemptive kernel, because some processes might be preempted on the buffer. The freeze_processes() and thaw_processes() functions can clean most of processes up from the buffer. There are still some non-frozen threads who have the PF_NOFREEZE flag. If those threads are sleeping (not preempted) at the known place outside the buffer, we can ensure safety of freeing. However, the processing of this check routine takes a long time. So, this patch introduces the garbage collection mechanism of insn_slot. It also introduces the "dirty" flag to free_insn_slot because of efficiency. The "clean" instruction slots (dirty flag is cleared) are released immediately. But the "dirty" slots which are used by boosted kprobes, are marked as garbages. collect_garbage_slots() will be invoked to release "dirty" slots if there are more than INSNS_PER_PAGE garbage slots or if there are no unused slots.

2006-12-07[PATCH] shared page table for hugetlb pageChen, Kenneth W
Following up with the work on shared page table done by Dave McCracken. This set of patch target shared page table for hugetlb memory only. The shared page table is particular useful in the situation of large number of independent processes sharing large shared memory segments. In the normal page case, the amount of memory saved from process' page table is quite significant. For hugetlb, the saving on page table memory is not the primary objective (as hugetlb itself already cuts down page table overhead significantly), instead, the purpose of using shared page table on hugetlb is to allow faster TLB refill and smaller cache pollution upon TLB miss. With PT sharing, pte entries are shared among hundreds of processes, the cache consumption used by all the page table is smaller and in return, application gets much higher cache hit ratio. One other effect is that cache hit ratio with hardware page walker hitting on pte in cache will be higher and this helps to reduce tlb miss latency. These two effects contribute to higher application performance.

2006-12-01Altix: Add initial ACPI IO supportJohn Keller
First phase in introducing ACPI support to SN. In this phase, when running with an ACPI capable PROM, the DSDT will define the root busses and all SN nodes (SGIHUB, SGITIO). An ACPI bus driver will be registered for the node devices, with the acpi_pci_root_driver being used for the root busses. An ACPI vendor descriptor is now used to pass platform specific information for both nodes and busses, eliminating the need for the current SAL calls. Also, with ACPI support, SN fixup code is no longer needed to initiate the PCI bus scans, as the acpi_pci_root_driver does that. However, to maintain backward compatibility with non-ACPI capable PROMs, none of the current 'fixup' code can been deleted, though much restructuring has been done. For example, the bulk of the code in io_common.c is relocated code that is now common regardless of what PROM is running, while io_acpi_init.c and io_init.c contain routines specific to an ACPI or non ACPI capable PROM respectively. A new pci bus fixup platform vector has been created to provide a hook for invoking platform specific bus fixup from pcibios_fixup_bus(). The size of io_space[] has been increased to support systems with large IO configurations. Signed-off-by: John Keller <jpk@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2006-11-15[IA64] bte_unaligned_copy() transfers one extra cache line.Robin Holt
When called to do a transfer that has a start offset within the cache line which is uneven between source and destination and a length which terminates the source of the copy exactly on a cache line, one extra line gets copied into a temporary buffer. This is normally not an issue since the buffer is a kernel buffer and only the requested information gets copied into the user buffer. The problem arises when the source ends at the very last physical page of memory. That last cache line does not exist and results in the SHUB chip raising an MCA.

2006-11-14[PATCH] hugetlb: prepare_hugepage_range check offset tooHugh Dickins
(David:) If hugetlbfs_file_mmap() returns a failure to do_mmap_pgoff() - for example, because the given file offset is not hugepage aligned - then do_mmap_pgoff will go to the unmap_and_free_vma backout path. But at this stage the vma hasn't been marked as hugepage, and the backout path will call unmap_region() on it. That will eventually call down to the non-hugepage version of unmap_page_range(). On ppc64, at least, that will cause serious problems if there are any existing hugepage pagetable entries in the vicinity - for example if there are any other hugepage mappings under the same PUD. unmap_page_range() will trigger a bad_pud() on the hugepage pud entries. I suspect this will also cause bad problems on ia64, though I don't have a machine to test it on. (Hugh:) prepare_hugepage_range() should check file offset alignment when it checks virtual address and length, to stop MAP_FIXED with a bad huge offset from unmapping before it fails further down. PowerPC should apply the same prepare_hugepage_range alignment checks as ia64 and all the others do. Then none of the alignment checks in hugetlbfs_file_mmap are required (nor is the check for too small a mapping); but even so, move up setting of VM_HUGETLB and add a comment to warn of what David Gibson discovered - if hugetlbfs_file_mmap fails before setting it, do_mmap_pgoff's unmap_region when unwinding from error will go the non-huge way, which may cause bad behaviour on architectures (powerpc and ia64) which segregate their huge mappings into a separate region of the address space.

When ACPI && NUMA, pxm_to_node is used and it exists in drivers/acpi/numa.c Tony said: The patch makes sense ... if you pick both of "ACPI" and "NUMA", then you need (and should automatically be given) ACPI_NUMA too. The only open question is whether there is a better way of getting there. Perhaps with less configuration options in the first place? We are heading towards a future where so many systems will be NUMA that there would seem to be little benefit in keeping ACPI_NUMA separate from ACPI ... but perhaps we aren't quite there yet.

2006-10-31[IA64] MCA recovery: Montecito supportRuss Anderson
The information in MCA records is filled in slightly differently on Montecito than on Madison/McKinley. Usually, the cache check and bus check target identifiers have the same address. On Montecito the cache check and bus check target identifiers can be different if a corrected error (ie SBE or unconsumed poison data) was encountered and then an uncorrected error (ie DBE) was consumed. In that case, the cache check target identifier is the physical address of the DBE (that caused the MCA to surface) while the bus check target identifier is the physical address of the SBE. This patch correctly finds the target identifier that triggered the MCA. If there are multiple valid cache target identifiers in the same error record then use the one with the lowest cache level.

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.

This was scripted with the following small shell script: #!/bin/sh egrep -nHrl -e 'irqreturn_t[ ]*[(][*]' $* | while read i do echo $i perl -pi -e 's/irqreturn_t\s*[(]\s*[*]\s*([_a-zA-Z0-9]*)\s*[)]\s*[(]\s*int\s*,\s*void\s*[*]\s*[)]/irq_handler_t \1/g' $i || exit $? done Signed-Off-By: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

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.
