2008-01-25sched: high-res preemption tickPeter Zijlstra
Use HR-timers (when available) to deliver an accurate preemption tick. The regular scheduler tick that runs at 1/HZ can be too coarse when nice level are used. The fairness system will still keep the cpu utilisation 'fair' by then delaying the task that got an excessive amount of CPU time but try to minimize this by delivering preemption points spot-on. The average frequency of this extra interrupt is sched_latency / nr_latency. Which need not be higher than 1/HZ, its just that the distribution within the sched_latency period is important.

2008-01-25cpu-hotplug: replace lock_cpu_hotplug() with get_online_cpus()Gautham R Shenoy
Replace all lock_cpu_hotplug/unlock_cpu_hotplug from the kernel and use get_online_cpus and put_online_cpus instead as it highlights the refcount semantics in these operations. The new API guarantees protection against the cpu-hotplug operation, but it doesn't guarantee serialized access to any of the local data structures. Hence the changes needs to be reviewed. In case of pseries_add_processor/pseries_remove_processor, use cpu_maps_update_begin()/cpu_maps_update_done() as we're modifying the cpu_present_map there.

2008-01-24PM: Acquire device locks on suspendRafael J. Wysocki
This patch reorganizes the way suspend and resume notifications are sent to drivers. The major changes are that now the PM core acquires every device semaphore before calling the methods, and calls to device_add() during suspends will fail, while calls to device_del() during suspends will block. It also provides a way to safely remove a suspended device with the help of the PM core, by using the device_pm_schedule_removal() callback introduced specifically for this purpose, and updates two drivers (msr and cpuid) that need to use it.

2008-01-22x86: GEODE fix a race condition in the MFGPT timer tickJordan Crouse
When we set the MFGPT timer tick, there is a chance that we'll immediately assert an event. If for some reason the IRQ routing for this clock has been setup for some other purpose, then we could end up firing an interrupt into the SMM handler or worse. This rearranges the timer tick init function to initalize the handler before we set up the MFGPT clock to make sure that even if we get an event, it will go to the handler. Furthermore, in the handler we need to make sure that we clear the event, even if the timer isn't running.

2008-01-15x86: fix RTC_AIE with CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTCBernhard Walle
In the current code, RTC_AIE doesn't work if the RTC relies on CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC because the code sets the RTC_AIE flag in hpet_set_rtc_irq_bit(). The interrupt handles does accidentally check for RTC_PIE and not RTC_AIE when comparing the time which was set in hpet_set_alarm_time(). I now verified on a test system here that without the patch applied, the attached test program fails on a system that has HPET with 2.6.24-rc7-default. That's not critical since I guess the problem has been there for several kernel releases, but as the fix is quite obvious. Configuration is CONFIG_RTC=y and CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC=y.

2008-01-15x86: fix boot crash on HIGHMEM4G && SPARSEMEMIngo Molnar
Denys Fedoryshchenko reported a bootup crash when he upgraded his system from 3GB to 4GB RAM: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/1/7/9 the bug is due to HIGHMEM4G && SPARSEMEM kernels making pfn_to_page() to return an invalid pointer when the pfn is in a memory hole. The 256 MB PCI aperture at the end of RAM was not mapped by sparsemem, and hence the pfn was not valid. But set_highmem_pages_init() iterated this range without checking the pfn's validity first. this bug was probably present in the sparsemem code ever since sparsemem has been introduced in v2.6.13. It was masked due to HIGHMEM64G using larger memory regions in sparsemem_32.h: #ifdef CONFIG_X86_PAE #define SECTION_SIZE_BITS 30 #define MAX_PHYSADDR_BITS 36 #define MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS 36 #else #define SECTION_SIZE_BITS 26 #define MAX_PHYSADDR_BITS 32 #define MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS 32 #endif which creates 1GB sparsemem regions instead of 64MB sparsemem regions. So in practice we only ever created true sparsemem holes on x86 with HIGHMEM4G - but that was rarely used by distros. ( btw., we could probably save 2MB of mem_map[]s on X86_PAE if we reduced the sparsemem region size to 256 MB. ) Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Acked-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-14Kick CPUS that might be sleeping in cpus_idle_waitSteven Rostedt
Sometimes cpu_idle_wait gets stuck because it might miss CPUS that are already in idle, have no tasks waiting to run and have no interrupts going to them. This is common on bootup when switching cpu idle governors. This patch gives those CPUS that don't check in an IPI kick. Background: ----------- I notice this while developing the mcount patches, that every once in a while the system would hang. Looking deeper, the hang was always at boot up when registering init_menu of the cpu_idle menu governor. Talking with Thomas Gliexner, we discovered that one of the CPUS had no timer events scheduled for it and it was in idle (running with NO_HZ). So the CPU would not set the cpu_idle_state bit. Hitting sysrq-t a few times would eventually route the interrupt to the stuck CPU and the system would continue. Note, I would have used the PDA isidle but that is set after the cpu_idle_state bit is cleared, and would leave a window open where we may miss being kicked. hmm, looking closer at this, we still have a small race window between clearing the cpu_idle_state and disabling interrupts (hence the RFC). CPU0: CPU 1: --------- --------- cpu_idle_wait(): cpu_idle(): | __cpu_cpu_var(is_idle) = 1; | if (__get_cpu_var(cpu_idle_state)) /* == 0 */ per_cpu(cpu_idle_state, 1) = 1; | if (per_cpu(is_idle, 1)) /* == 1 */ | smp_call_function(1) | | receives ipi and runs do_nothing. wait on map == empty idle(); /* waits forever */ So really we need interrupts off for most of this then. One might think that we could simply clear the cpu_idle_state from do_nothing, but I'm assuming that cpu_idle governors can be removed, and this might cause a race that a governor might be used after the module was removed. Venki said: I think your RFC patch is the right solution here. As I see it, there is no race with your RFC patch. As long as you call a dummy smp_call_function on all CPUs, we should be OK. We can get rid of cpu_idle_state and the current wait forever logic altogether with dummy smp_call_function. And so there wont be any wait forever scenario. The whole point of cpu_idle_wait() is to make all CPUs come out of idle loop atleast once. The caller will use cpu_idle_wait something like this. // Want to change idle handler - Switch global idle handler to always present default_idle - call cpu_idle_wait so that all cpus come out of idle for an instant and stop using old idle pointer and start using default idle - Change the idle handler to a new handler - optional cpu_idle_wait if you want all cpus to start using the new handler immediately. Maybe the below 1s patch is safe bet for .24. But for .25, I would say we just replace all complicated logic by simple dummy smp_call_function and remove cpu_idle_state altogether.

2008-01-11PM: ACPI and APM must not be enabled at the same timeLen Brown
ACPI and APM used "pm_active" to guarantee that they would not be simultaneously active. But pm_active was recently moved under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY, so that without CONFIG_PM_LEGACY, pm_active became a NOP -- allowing ACPI and APM to both be simultaneously enabled. This caused unpredictable results, including boot hangs. Further, the code under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY is scheduled for removal. So replace pm_active with pm_flags. pm_flags depends only on CONFIG_PM, which is present for both CONFIG_APM and CONFIG_ACPI. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9194 Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2007-12-18x86: fix "Kernel panic - not syncing: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work!"Ingo Molnar
this is the tale of a full day spent debugging an ancient but elusive bug. after booting up thousands of random .config kernels, i finally happened to generate a .config that produced the following rare bootup failure on 32-bit x86: | ..TIMER: vector=0x31 apic1=0 pin1=2 apic2=-1 pin2=-1 | ..MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC | ...trying to set up timer (IRQ0) through the 8259A ... failed. | ...trying to set up timer as Virtual Wire IRQ... failed. | ...trying to set up timer as ExtINT IRQ... failed :(. | Kernel panic - not syncing: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work! Boot with apic=debug | and send a report. Then try booting with the 'noapic' option this bug has been reported many times during the years, but it was never reproduced nor fixed. the bug that i hit was extremely sensitive to .config details. First i did a .config-bisection - suspecting some .config detail. That led to CONFIG_X86_MCE: enabling X86_MCE magically made the bug disappear and the system would boot up just fine. Debugging my way through the MCE code ended up identifying two unlikely candidates: the thing that made a real difference to the hang was that X86_MCE did two printks: Intel machine check architecture supported. Intel machine check reporting enabled on CPU#1. Adding the same printks to a !CONFIG_X86_MCE kernel made the bug go away! this left timing as the main suspect: i experimented with adding various udelay()s to the arch/x86/kernel/io_apic_32.c:check_timer() function, and the race window turned out to be narrower than 30 microseconds (!). That made debugging especially funny, debugging without having printk ability before the bug hits is ... interesting ;-) eventually i started suspecting IRQ activities - those are pretty much the only thing that happen this early during bootup and have the timescale of a few dozen microseconds. Also, check_timer() changes the IRQ hardware in various creative ways, so the main candidate became IRQ0 interaction. i've added a counter to track timer irqs (on which core they arrived, at what exact time, etc.) and found that no timer IRQ would arrive after the bug condition hits - even if we re-enable IRQ0 and re-initialize the i8259A, but that we'd get a small number of timer irqs right around the time when we call the check_timer() function. Eventually i got the following backtrace triggered from debug code in the timer interrupt: ...trying to set up timer as Virtual Wire IRQ... failed. ...trying to set up timer as ExtINT IRQ...

Wait ... we have an IRQ0 entry while we are in the middle of setting up the local APIC, the i8259A and the PIT?? That is certainly not how it's supposed to work! check_timer() was supposed to be called with irqs turned off - but this eroded away sometime in the past. This code would still work most of the time because this code runs very quickly, but just the right timing conditions are present and IRQ0 hits in this small, ~30 usecs window, timer irqs stop and the system does not boot up. Also, given how early this is during bootup, the hang is very deterministic - but it would only occur on certain machines (and certain configs). The fix was quite simple: disable/restore interrupts properly in this function. With that in place the test-system now boots up just fine. (64-bit x86 io_apic_64.c had the same bug.) Phew!

2007-12-18x86: kprobes bugfixMasami Hiramatsu
Kprobes for x86-64 may cause a kernel crash if it inserted on "iret" instruction. "call absolute" is invalid on x86-64, so we don't need treat it. - Change the processing order as same as x86-32. - Add "iret"(0xcf) case. - Remove next_rip local variable.

jprobe for x86-64 may cause kernel page fault when the jprobe_return() is called from incorrect function. - Use jprobe_saved_regs instead getting it from stack. (Especially on x86-64, it may get incorrect data, because pt_regs can not be get by using container_of(rsp)) - Change the type of stack pointer to unsigned long *.

2007-12-04x86: add the word 'WARNING' in check_nmi_watchdog() outputDon Zickus
Our automated test suite looks for keywords like error, fail, warning in the boot log. In the case when the nmi watchdog is determined to be stuck in check_nmi_watchdog(), none of those keywords are displayed. This patch adds a keyword, "WARNING:", so it makes it easier to notice when the nmi watchdog isn't working correctly. Also add a proper KERN_WARNING mark to this printout.
