2006-10-02[PATCH] namespaces: add nsproxySerge E. Hallyn
This patch adds a nsproxy structure to the task struct. Later patches will move the fs namespace pointer into this structure, and introduce a new utsname namespace into the nsproxy. The vserver and openvz functionality, then, would be implemented in large part by virtualizing/isolating more and more resources into namespaces, each contained in the nsproxy.

2006-10-01[PATCH] kill wall_jiffiesAtsushi Nemoto
With 2.6.18-rc4-mm2, now wall_jiffies will always be the same as jiffies. So we can kill wall_jiffies completely. This is just a cleanup and logically should not change any real behavior except for one thing: RTC updating code in (old) ppc and xtensa use a condition "jiffies - wall_jiffies == 1". This condition is never met so I suppose it is just a bug. I just remove that condition only instead of kill the whole "if" block.

2006-09-29[PATCH] simplify update_times (avoid jiffies/jiffies_64 aliasing problem)Atsushi Nemoto
Pass ticks to do_timer() and update_times(), and adjust x86_64 and s390 timer interrupt handler with this change. Currently update_times() calculates ticks by "jiffies - wall_jiffies", but callers of do_timer() should know how many ticks to update. Passing ticks get rid of this redundant calculation. Also there are another redundancy pointed out by Martin Schwidefsky. This cleanup make a barrier added by 5aee405c662ca644980c184774277fc6d0769a84 needless. So this patch removes it. As a bonus, this cleanup make wall_jiffies can be removed easily, since now wall_jiffies is always synced with jiffies. (This patch does not really remove wall_jiffies.

2006-06-29[PATCH] genirq: rename desc->handler to desc->chipIngo Molnar
This patch-queue improves the generic IRQ layer to be truly generic, by adding various abstractions and features to it, without impacting existing functionality. While the queue can be best described as "fix and improve everything in the generic IRQ layer that we could think of", and thus it consists of many smaller features and lots of cleanups, the one feature that stands out most is the new 'irq chip' abstraction. The irq-chip abstraction is about describing and coding and IRQ controller driver by mapping its raw hardware capabilities [and quirks, if needed] in a straightforward way, without having to think about "IRQ flow" (level/edge/etc.) type of details. This stands in contrast with the current 'irq-type' model of genirq architectures, which 'mixes' raw hardware capabilities with 'flow' details. The patchset supports both types of irq controller designs at once, and converts i386 and x86_64 to the new irq-chip design. As a bonus side-effect of the irq-chip approach, chained interrupt controllers (master/slave PIC constructs, etc.) are now supported by design as well. The end result of this patchset intends to be simpler architecture-level code and more consolidation between architectures. We reused many bits of code and many concepts from Russell King's ARM IRQ layer, the merging of which was one of the motivations for this patchset. This patch: rename desc->handler to desc->chip. Originally i did not want to do this, because it's a big patch. But having both "desc->handler", "desc->handle_irq" and "action->handler" caused a large degree of confusion and made the code appear alot less clean than it truly is. I have also attempted a dual approach as well by introducing a desc->chip alias - but that just wasnt robust enough and broke frequently. So lets get over with this quickly. The conversion was done automatically via scripts and converts all the code in the kernel. This renaming patch is the first one amongst the patches, so that the remaining patches can stay flexible and can be merged and split up without having some big monolithic patch act as a merge barrier.

2006-06-27[PATCH] node hotplug: register cpu: remove node structKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
With Goto-san's patch, we can add new pgdat/node at runtime. I'm now considering node-hot-add with cpu + memory on ACPI. I found acpi container, which describes node, could evaluate cpu before memory. This means cpu-hot-add occurs before memory hot add. In most part, cpu-hot-add doesn't depend on node hot add. But register_cpu(), which creates symbolic link from node to cpu, requires that node should be onlined before register_cpu(). When a node is onlined, its pgdat should be there. This patch-set holds off creating symbolic link from node to cpu until node is onlined. This removes node arguments from register_cpu(). Now, register_cpu() requires 'struct node' as its argument. But the array of struct node is now unified in driver/base/node.c now (By Goto's node hotplug patch). We can get struct node in generic way. So, this argument is not necessary now. This patch also guarantees add cpu under node only when node is onlined. It is necessary for node-hot-add vs. cpu-hot-add patch following this. Moreover, register_cpu calculates cpu->node_id by cpu_to_node() without regard to its 'struct node *root' argument. This patch removes it. Also modify callers of register_cpu()/unregister_cpu, whose args are changed by register-cpu-remove-node-struct patch.

2006-04-19[PATCH] m32r: Fix pt_regs for !COFNIG_ISA_DSP_LEVEL2 targetHirokazu Takata
This modification is required to fix debugging function for m32r targets with !CONFIG_ISA_DSP_LEVEL2, by unifying 'struct pt_regs' and 'struct sigcontext' size for all M32R ISA. Some m32r processor core with !CONFIG_ISA_DSP_LEVEL2 configuration has only single accumulator a0 (ex. VDEC2 core, M32102 core, etc.), the others with CONFIG_ISA_DSP_LEVEL2 has two accumulators, a0 and a1. This means there are two variations of thread context. So far, we reduced and changed stackframe size at a syscall for their context size. However, this causes a problem that a GDB for processors with CONFIG_ISA_DSP_LEVEL2 cannot be used for processors with !CONFIG_ISA_DSP_LEVEL2. From the viewpoint of GDB support, we should reduce such variation of stackframe size for simplicity. In this patch, dummy members are added to 'struct pt_regs' and 'struct sigcontext' to adjust their size for !CONFIG_ISA_DSP_LEVEL2. This modification is also a one step for a GDB update in future. Currently, on the m32r, GDB can access process's context by using ptrace functions in a simple way of register by register access. By unifying stackframe size, we have a possibility to make use of ptrace functions of not only a single register access but also block register access, PTRACE_{GETREGS,PUTREGS}. However, for this purpose, we might have to modify stackframe structure some more; for example, PSW (processor status word) register should be pre-processed before pushing to stack at a syscall, and so on. In this case, we must update carefully both kernel and GDB at a time...

2006-04-11[PATCH] No arch-specific strpbrk implementationsKyle McMartin
While cleaning up parisc_ksyms.c earlier, I noticed that strpbrk wasn't being exported from lib/string.c. Investigating further, I noticed a changeset that removed its export and added it to _ksyms.c on a few more architectures. The justification was that "other arches do it." I think this is wrong, since no architecture currently defines __HAVE_ARCH_STRPBRK, there's no reason for any of them to be exporting it themselves. Therefore, consolidate the export to lib/string.c.

Of all of the implementations, sh64 is the only one that varied by a bit. It used some masks to ensure that any sign-extension got ripped away before the arithmetic is done.

2006-02-20[PATCH] m32r: update sys_tas() routineHirokazu Takata
This patch updates and fixes sys_tas() routine for m32r. In the previous implementation, a lockup rarely caused at sys_tas() routine in SMP environment. > > The problem is that touching *addr will generate an oops if that page isn't > > paged in. If we convert it to use get_user() then that's an improvement, > > but we must not run get_user() under spinlock or local_irq_disable(). I rewrote sys_tas() routine by using "lock -> unlock" instructions, and utilizing the m32r's interrupt handling characteristics; the m32r processor can accept interrupts only at the 32-bit instruction boundary. So, the "unlock" instruction can be executed continuously after the "lock" instruction execution without any interruptions. In addition, to solve such a page_fault problem, I use a fixup code like get_user(). And, as for the kernel lockup problem, we found that a calling do_page_fault() routine with disabling interrupts might cause a lockup at flush_tlb_others(), because we checked a completion of IPI handler's operations in a spin-locked critical section. Therefore, by using "lock -> unlock" code, we can implement the sys_tas() rouitine without disabling interrupts explicitly, then no lockups would happen at flush_tlb_others(), I hope.

2006-01-08[PATCH] Don't attempt to power off if power off is not implementedEric W. Biederman
The problem. It is expected that /sbin/halt -p works exactly like /sbin/halt, when the kernel does not implement power off functionality. The kernel can do a lot of work in the reboot notifiers and in device_shutdown before we even get to machine_power_off. Some of that shutdown is not safe if you are leaving the power on, and it definitely gets in the way of using sysrq or pressing ctrl-alt-del. Since the shutdown happens in generic code there is no way to fix this in architecture specific code :( Some machines are kernel oopsing today because of this. The simple solution is to turn LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_POWER_OFF into LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_HALT if power_off functionality is not implemented. This has the unfortunate side effect of disabling the power off functionality on architectures that leave pm_power_off to null and still implement something in machine_power_off. And it will break the build on some architectures that don't have a pm_power_off variable at all. On both counts I say tough. For architectures like alpha that don't implement the pm_power_off variable pm_power_off is declared in linux/pm.h and it is a generic part of our power management code, and all architectures should implement it. For architectures like parisc that have a default power off method in machine_power_off if pm_power_off is not implemented or fails. It is easy enough to set the pm_power_off variable. And nothing bad happens there, the machines just stop powering off. The current semantics are impossible without a flag at the top level so we can avoid the problem code if a power off is not implemented. pm_power_off is as good a flag as any with the bonus that it works without modification on at least x86, x86_64, powerpc, and ppc today. Andrew can you pick this up and put this in the mm tree. Kernels that don't compile or don't power off seem saner than kernels that oops or panic. Until we get the arch specific patches for the problem architectures this probably isn't smart to push into the stable kernel. Unfortunately I don't have the time at the moment to walk through every architecture and make them work. And even if I did I couldn't test it :( From: Hirokazu Takata <takata@linux-m32r.org> Add pm_power_off() for build fix of arch/m32r/kernel/process.c.

2006-01-08[PATCH] use ptrace_get_task_struct in various placesChristoph Hellwig
The ptrace_get_task_struct() helper that I added as part of the ptrace consolidation is useful in variety of places that currently opencode it. Switch them to the common helpers. Add a ptrace_traceme() helper that needs to be explicitly called, and simplify the ptrace_get_task_struct() interface. We don't need the request argument now, and we return the task_struct directly, using ERR_PTR() for error returns. It's a bit more code in the callers, but we have two sane routines that do one thing well now.

2005-11-28[PATCH] m32r: Fix sys_tas() syscallHirokazu Takata
This patch fixes a deadlock problem of the m32r SMP kernel. In the m32r kernel, sys_tas() system call is provided as a test-and-set function for userspace, for backward compatibility. In some multi-threading application program, deadlocks were rarely caused at sys_tas() funcion. Such a deadlock was caused due to a collision of __pthread_lock() and __pthread_unlock() operations. The "tas" syscall is repeatedly called by pthread_mutex_lock() to get a lock, while a lock variable's value is not 0. On the other hand, pthead_mutex_unlock() sets the lock variable to 0 for unlocking. In the previous implementation of sys_tas() routine, there was a possibility that a unlock operation was ignored in the following case: - Assume a lock variable (*addr) was equal to 1 before sys_tas() execution. - __pthread_unlock() operation is executed by the other processor and the lock variable (*addr) is set to 0, between a read operation ("oldval = *addr;") and the following write operation ("*addr = 1;") during a execution of sys_tas(). In this case, the following write operation ("*addr = 1;") overwrites the __pthread_unlock() result, and sys_tas() fails to get a lock in the next turn and after that. According to the attatched patch, sys_tas() returns 0 value in the next turn and deadlocks never happen.

2005-11-09[PATCH] sched: disable preempt in idle tasksNick Piggin
Run idle threads with preempt disabled. Also corrected a bugs in arm26's cpu_idle (make it actually call schedule()). How did it ever work before? Might fix the CPU hotplugging hang which Nigel Cunningham noted. We think the bug hits if the idle thread is preempted after checking need_resched() and before going to sleep, then the CPU offlined. After calling stop_machine_run, the CPU eventually returns from preemption and into the idle thread and goes to sleep. The CPU will continue executing previous idle and have no chance to call play_dead. By disabling preemption until we are ready to explicitly schedule, this bug is fixed and the idle threads generally become more robust.

2005-09-10[PATCH] spinlock consolidationIngo Molnar
This patch (written by me and also containing many suggestions of Arjan van de Ven) does a major cleanup of the spinlock code. It does the following things: - consolidates and enhances the spinlock/rwlock debugging code - simplifies the asm/spinlock.h files - encapsulates the raw spinlock type and moves generic spinlock features (such as ->break_lock) into the generic code. - cleans up the spinlock code hierarchy to get rid of the spaghetti. Most notably there's now only a single variant of the debugging code, located in lib/spinlock_debug.c. (previously we had one SMP debugging variant per architecture, plus a separate generic one for UP builds) Also, i've enhanced the rwlock debugging facility, it will now track write-owners. There is new spinlock-owner/CPU-tracking on SMP builds too. All locks have lockup detection now, which will work for both soft and hard spin/rwlock lockups. The arch-level include files now only contain the minimally necessary subset of the spinlock code - all the rest that can be generalized now lives in the generic headers: include/asm-i386/spinlock_types.h | 16 include/asm-x86_64/spinlock_types.h | 16 I have also split up the various spinlock variants into separate files, making it easier to see which does what. The new layout is: SMP | UP ----------------------------|----------------------------------- asm/spinlock_types_smp.h | linux/spinlock_types_up.h linux/spinlock_types.h | linux/spinlock_types.h asm/spinlock_smp.h | linux/spinlock_up.h linux/spinlock_api_smp.h | linux/spinlock_api_up.h linux/spinlock.h | linux/spinlock.h /* * here's the role of the various spinlock/rwlock related include files: * * on SMP builds: * * asm/spinlock_types.h: contains the raw_spinlock_t/raw_rwlock_t and the * initializers * * linux/spinlock_types.h: * defines the generic type and initializers * * asm/spinlock.h: contains the __raw_spin_*()/etc. lowlevel * implementations, mostly inline assembly code * * (also included on UP-debug builds:) * * linux/spinlock_api_smp.h: * contains the prototypes for the _spin_*() APIs. * * linux/spinlock.h: builds the final spin_*() APIs. * * on UP builds: * * linux/spinlock_type_up.h: * contains the generic, simplified UP spinlock type. * (which is an empty structure on non-debug builds) * * linux/spinlock_types.h: * defines the generic type and initializers * * linux/spinlock_up.h: * contains the __raw_spin_*()/etc. version of UP * builds.

Doing so avoids some ugly nesting of linux/*.h and asm/*.h files. Those particular locks are well tested and contained entirely inside arch specific code. I do NOT expect any new issues to arise with them. If someone does ever need to use debug/metrics with them, then they will need to unravel this hairball between spinlocks, atomic ops, and bit ops that exist only because parisc has exactly one atomic instruction: LDCW (load and clear word).

2005-08-29[PATCH] convert signal handling of NODEFER to act like other Unix boxes.Steven Rostedt
It has been reported that the way Linux handles NODEFER for signals is not consistent with the way other Unix boxes handle it. I've written a program to test the behavior of how this flag affects signals and had several reports from people who ran this on various Unix boxes, confirming that Linux seems to be unique on the way this is handled. The way NODEFER affects signals on other Unix boxes is as follows: 1) If NODEFER is set, other signals in sa_mask are still blocked. 2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal is still blocked. (Note: this is the behavior of all tested but Linux _and_ NetBSD 2.0 *). The way NODEFER affects signals on Linux: 1) If NODEFER is set, other signals are _not_ blocked regardless of sa_mask (Even NetBSD doesn't do this). 2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal being handled is not blocked. The patch converts signal handling in all current Linux architectures to the way most Unix boxes work. Unix boxes that were tested: DU4, AIX 5.2, Irix 6.5, NetBSD 2.0, SFU 3.5 on WinXP, AIX 5.3, Mac OSX, and of course Linux 2.6.13-rcX. * NetBSD was the only other Unix to behave like Linux on point #2. The main concern was brought up by point #1 which even NetBSD isn't like Linux. So with this patch, we leave NetBSD as the lonely one that behaves differently here with #2.

2005-08-01[PATCH] m32r: Fix local-timer event handlingHirokazu Takata
There was a scheduling problem of the m32r SMP kernel; A process rarely stopped and gave no responding but the other process have been handled by the other CPU still lives, then if we did something in the other terminal or something like that, the stopped process came back to life and continued its operation... (ex. LMbench: lat_sig) In the m32r SMP kernel, a local-timer event is delivered by using an IPI(inter processor interrupts); LOCAL_TIMER_IPI. And a function smp_send_timer() is prepared to send the LOCAL_TIMER_IPI from the current CPU to the other CPUs. The funtion smp_send_timer() was placed and used in do_IRQ() in former times (before 2.6.10-rc3-mm1 kernel), however, it was unintentionally removed when arch/m32r/kernel/irq.c was modified to employ the generic hardirq framework (CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQ) in my previous patch.
