2005-06-23[PATCH] Do not enforce unique IO_APIC_ID check for xAPIC systems (i386)Natalie Protasevich
This patch is per Andi's request to remove NO_IOAPIC_CHECK from genapic and use heuristics to prevent unique I/O APIC ID check for systems that don't need it. The patch disables unique I/O APIC ID check for Xeon-based and other platforms that don't use serial APIC bus for interrupt delivery. Andi stated that AMD systems don't need unique IO_APIC_IDs either.

2005-06-23[PATCH] i386: never block forced SIGSEGVRoland McGrath
This problem was first noticed on PPC and has already been fixed there. But the exact same issue applies to other platforms in the same way. The signal blocking for sa_mask and the handled signal takes place after the handler setup. When the stack is bogus, the handler setup forces a SIGSEGV. But then this will be blocked, and returning to user mode will fault again and iterate. This patch fixes the problem by checking whether signal handler setup failed, and not doing the signal-blocking if so. This copies what was done in the ppc code. I think all architectures' signal handler setup code follows this pattern and needs the change.

2005-06-23[PATCH] x86/x86_64: pcibus_to_nodeChristoph Lameter
Define pcibus_to_node to be able to figure out which NUMA node contains a given PCI device. This defines pcibus_to_node(bus) in include/linux/topology.h and adjusts the macros for i386 and x86_64 that already provided a way to determine the cpumask of a pci device. x86_64 was changed to not build an array of cpumasks anymore. Instead an array of nodes is build which can be used to generate the cpumask via node_to_cpumask.

2005-06-23[PATCH] Platform SMIs and their interferance with tsc based delay calibrationVenkatesh Pallipadi
Issue: Current tsc based delay_calibration can result in significant errors in loops_per_jiffy count when the platform events like SMIs (System Management Interrupts that are non-maskable) are present. This could lead to potential kernel panic(). This issue is becoming more visible with 2.6 kernel (as default HZ is 1000) and on platforms with higher SMI handling latencies. During the boot time, SMIs are mostly used by BIOS (for things like legacy keyboard emulation). Description: The psuedocode for current delay calibration with tsc based delay looks like (0) Estimate a value for loops_per_jiffy (1) While (loops_per_jiffy estimate is accurate enough) (2) wait for jiffy transition (jiffy1) (3) Note down current tsc (tsc1) (4) loop until tsc becomes tsc1 + loops_per_jiffy (5) check whether jiffy changed since jiffy1 or not and refine loops_per_jiffy estimate Consider the following cases Case 1: If SMIs happen between (2) and (3) above, we can end up with a loops_per_jiffy value that is too low. This results in shorted delays and kernel can panic () during boot (Mostly at IOAPIC timer initialization timer_irq_works() as we don't have enough timer interrupts in a specified interval). Case 2: If SMIs happen between (3) and (4) above, then we can end up with a loops_per_jiffy value that is too high. And with current i386 code, too high lpj value (greater than 17M) can result in a overflow in delay.c:__const_udelay() again resulting in shorter delay and panic(). Solution: The patch below makes the calibration routine aware of asynchronous events like SMIs. We increase the delay calibration time and also identify any significant errors (greater than 12.5%) in the calibration and notify it to user. Patch below changes both i386 and x86-64 architectures to use this new and improved calibrate_delay_direct() routine.

2005-06-23[PATCH] use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.shIan Campbell
The attached patch causes the various arch specific install.sh scripts to look for ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel rather than just installkernel (in both /sbin/ and ~/bin/ where the script already did this). This allows you to have e.g. arm-linux-installkernel as a handy way to install on your cross target. It also prevents the script picking up on the host /sbin/installkernel which causes the script to fall through and do the install itself (which is what I actually use myself, with $INSTALL_PATH set). I don't believe it causes back-compatibility problems since calling the host installkernel was never likely to work or be what you wanted when cross compiling anyway. If $CROSS_COMPILE isn't set then nothing changes. I only use ARM and i386 myself but I figured it couldn't hurt to do the whole lot. I've cc'd those who I hope are the arch maintainers for files that I've touched.

2005-06-23[PATCH] add x86-64 specific support for sparsememMatt Tolentino
This patch adds in the necessary support for sparsemem such that x86-64 kernels may use sparsemem as an alternative to discontigmem for NUMA kernels. Note that this does no preclude one from continuing to build NUMA kernels using discontigmem, but merely allows the option to build NUMA kernels with sparsemem.

2005-06-23[PATCH] sparsemem swiss cheese numa layoutsAndy Whitcroft
The part of the sparsemem patch which modifies memmap_init_zone() has recently become a problem. It changes behavior so that there is a call to pfn_to_page() for each individual page inside of a node's range: node_start_pfn through node_end_pfn. It used to simply do this once, at the beginning of the node, but having sparsemem's non-contiguous mem_map[]s inside of a node made it necessary to change. Mike Kravetz recently wrote a patch which made the NUMA code accept some new kinds of layouts. The system's memory was laid out like this, with node 0's memory in two pieces: one before and one after node 1's memory: Node 0: +++++ +++++ Node 1: +++++ Previous behavior before Mike's patch was to assign nodes like this: Node 0: 00000 XXXXX Node 1: 11111 Where the 'X' areas were simply thrown away. The new behavior was to make the pg_data_t span node 0 across all of its areas, including areas that are really node 1's: Node 0: 000000000000000 Node 1: 11111 This wastes a little bit of mem_map space, but ends up being OK, and more fully utilizes the system's memory. memmap_init_zone() initializes all of the "struct page"s for node 0, even for the "hole", but those never get used, because there is no pfn_to_page() that resolves to those pages. However, only calling pfn_to_page() once, memmap_init_zone() always uses the pages that were allocated for node0->node_mem_map because: struct page *start = pfn_to_page(start_pfn); // effectively start = &node->node_mem_map[0] for (page = start; page < (start + size); page++) { init_page_here();... page++; } Slow, and wasteful, but generally harmless. But, modify that to call pfn_to_page() for each loop iteration (like sparsemem does): for (pfn = start_pfn; pfn < < (start_pfn + size); pfn++++) { page = pfn_to_page(pfn); } And you end up trying to initialize node 1's pages too early, along with bogus data from node 0. This patch checks for those weird layouts and declines to touch the pages, making the more frequent pfn_to_page() calls OK to do.

2005-06-23[PATCH] sparsemem memory modelAndy Whitcroft
Sparsemem abstracts the use of discontiguous mem_maps[]. This kind of mem_map[] is needed by discontiguous memory machines (like in the old CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM case) as well as memory hotplug systems. Sparsemem replaces DISCONTIGMEM when enabled, and it is hoped that it can eventually become a complete replacement. A significant advantage over DISCONTIGMEM is that it's completely separated from CONFIG_NUMA. When producing this patch, it became apparent in that NUMA and DISCONTIG are often confused. Another advantage is that sparse doesn't require each NUMA node's ranges to be contiguous. It can handle overlapping ranges between nodes with no problems, where DISCONTIGMEM currently throws away that memory. Sparsemem uses an array to provide different pfn_to_page() translations for each SECTION_SIZE area of physical memory. This is what allows the mem_map[] to be chopped up. In order to do quick pfn_to_page() operations, the section number of the page is encoded in page->flags. Part of the sparsemem infrastructure enables sharing of these bits more dynamically (at compile-time) between the page_zone() and sparsemem operations. However, on 32-bit architectures, the number of bits is quite limited, and may require growing the size of the page->flags type in certain conditions. Several things might force this to occur: a decrease in the SECTION_SIZE (if you want to hotplug smaller areas of memory), an increase in the physical address space, or an increase in the number of used page->flags. One thing to note is that, once sparsemem is present, the NUMA node information no longer needs to be stored in the page->flags. It might provide speed increases on certain platforms and will be stored there if there is room. But, if out of room, an alternate (theoretically slower) mechanism is used. This patch introduces CONFIG_FLATMEM. It is used in almost all cases where there used to be an #ifndef DISCONTIG, because SPARSEMEM and DISCONTIGMEM often have to compile out the same areas of code.

Issues: o alloc_remap takes a node_id where we might expect a pgdat which was intended to allow us to allocate the pgdat's using this mechanism; which we do not yet do.

There are analogous patches to the i386 ones for ppc64, ia64, and x86_64, but those will be submitted by the normal arch maintainers. The combination of the four patches has been test-booted on a variety of i386 hardware, and compiled for ppc64, i386, and x86-64 with about 17 different .configs. It's also been runtime-tested on ia64 configs (with more patches on top). This patch: We _know_ which node pages in general belong to, at least at a very gross level in node_{start,end}_pfn[].

2005-06-23[PATCH] remove non-DISCONTIG use of pgdat->node_mem_mapDave Hansen
This patch effectively eliminates direct use of pgdat->node_mem_map outside of the DISCONTIG code. On a flat memory system, these fields aren't currently used, neither are they on a sparsemem system. There was also a node_mem_map(nid) macro on many architectures. Its use along with the use of ->node_mem_map itself was not consistent. It has been removed in favor of two new, more explicit, arch-independent macros: pgdat_page_nr(pgdat, pagenr) nid_page_nr(nid, pagenr) I called them "pgdat" and "nid" because we overload the term "node" to mean "NUMA node", "DISCONTIG node" or "pg_data_t" in very confusing ways. I believe the newer names are much clearer. These macros can be overridden in the sparsemem case with a theoretically slower operation using node_start_pfn and pfn_to_page(), instead. We could make this the only behavior if people want, but I don't want to change too much at once. One thing at a time. This patch removes more code than it adds. Compile tested on alpha, alpha discontig, arm, arm-discontig, i386, i386 generic, NUMAQ, Summit, ppc64, ppc64 discontig, and x86_64.

The kernel takes a very long time to boot if the memory size is bigger then 32767 MB. The memory size is contained in a structure created by an sclp call. The kernel accesses the field with a LH instrution which performs a sign extension of a 16 bit word. In the case of a memory size with bit 2^15 set this results in a very large value and the memory detection just loops for a long time. In addition if more then 64 GB are used on a 64 bit system the memory size is read from an incorrect storage location.

2005-06-21[PATCH] uml: fix linkage of tt mode against NPTLPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
With Al Viro <viro@parcelfarce.linux.theplanet.co.uk> To make sure switcheroo() can execute when we remap all the executable image, we used a trick to make it use a local copy of errno... this trick does not work with NPTL glibc, only with LinuxThreads, so use another (simpler) one to make it work anyway. Hopefully, a lot improved thanks to merging with the version of Al Viro (which had his part of problems, though, i.e. removing a fix to another bug and not fixing the problem on i386).

2005-06-21[PATCH] uml: make hw_controller_type->release exist only for archs needing itPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
With Chris Wedgwood <cw@f00f.org> As suggested by Chris, we can make the "just added" method ->release conditional to UML only (better: to archs requesting it, i.e. only UML currently), so that other archs don't get this unneeded crud, and if UML won't need it any more we can kill this.

2005-06-21[PATCH] uml: add and use generic hw_controller_type->releasePaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
With Chris Wedgwood <cw@f00f.org> Currently UML must explicitly call the UML-specific free_irq_by_irq_and_dev() for each free_irq call it's done. This is needed because ->shutdown and/or ->disable are only called when the last "action" for that irq is removed. Instead, for UML shared IRQs (UML IRQs are very often, if not always, shared), for each dev_id some setup is done, which must be cleared on the release of that fd. For instance, for each open console a new instance (i.e. new dev_id) of the same IRQ is requested(). Exactly, a fd is stored in an array (pollfds), which is after read by a host thread and passed to poll(). Each event registered by poll() triggers an interrupt. So, for each free_irq() we must remove the corresponding host fd from the table, which we do via this -release() method. In this patch we add an appropriate hook for this, and remove all uses of it by pointing the hook to the said procedure; this is safe to do since the said procedure. Also some cosmetic improvements are included. This is heavily based on some work by Chris Wedgwood, which however didn't get the patch merged for something I'd call a "misunderstanding" (the need for this patch wasn't cleanly explained, thus adding the generic hook was felt as undesirable).
