2009-06-21Move FAULT_FLAG_xyz into handle_mm_fault() callersLinus Torvalds
This allows the callers to now pass down the full set of FAULT_FLAG_xyz flags to handle_mm_fault(). All callers have been (mechanically) converted to the new calling convention, there's almost certainly room for architectures to clean up their code and then add FAULT_FLAG_RETRY when that support is added.

2009-06-20x86, 64-bit: Clean up user address maskingLinus Torvalds
The discussion about using "access_ok()" in get_user_pages_fast() (see commit 7f8189068726492950bf1a2dcfd9b51314560abf: "x86: don't use 'access_ok()' as a range check in get_user_pages_fast()" for details and end result), made us notice that x86-64 was really being very sloppy about virtual address checking. So be way more careful and straightforward about masking x86-64 virtual addresses: - All the VIRTUAL_MASK* variants now cover half of the address space, it's not like we can use the full mask on a signed integer, and the larger mask just invites mistakes when applying it to either half of the 48-bit address space. - /proc/kcore's kc_offset_to_vaddr() becomes a lot more obvious when it transforms a file offset into a (kernel-half) virtual address. - Unify/simplify the 32-bit and 64-bit USER_DS definition to be based on TASK_SIZE_MAX. This cleanup and more careful/obvious user virtual address checking also uncovered a buglet in the x86-64 implementation of strnlen_user(): it would do an "access_ok()" check on the whole potential area, even if the string itself was much shorter, and thus return an error even for valid strings. Our sloppy checking had hidden this. So this fixes 'strnlen_user()' to do this properly, the same way we already handled user strings in 'strncpy_from_user()'. Namely by just checking the first byte, and then relying on fault handling for the rest. That always works, since we impose a guard page that cannot be mapped at the end of the user space address space (and even if we didn't, we'd have the address space hole).

2009-06-20x86: don't use 'access_ok()' as a range check in get_user_pages_fast()Linus Torvalds
It's really not right to use 'access_ok()', since that is meant for the normal "get_user()" and "copy_from/to_user()" accesses, which are done through the TLB, rather than through the page tables. Why? access_ok() does both too few, and too many checks. Too many, because it is meant for regular kernel accesses that will not honor the 'user' bit in the page tables, and because it honors the USER_DS vs KERNEL_DS distinction that we shouldn't care about in GUP. And too few, because it doesn't do the 'canonical' check on the address on x86-64, since the TLB will do that for us. So instead of using a function that isn't meant for this, and does something else and much more complicated, just do the real rules: we don't want the range to overflow, and on x86-64, we want it to be a canonical low address (on 32-bit, all addresses are canonical).

2009-06-19perf_counter, x86: Improve interactions with fast-gupIngo Molnar
Improve a few details in perfcounter call-chain recording that makes use of fast-GUP: - Use ACCESS_ONCE() to observe the pte value. ptes are fundamentally racy and can be changed on another CPU, so we have to be careful about how we access them. The PAE branch is already careful with read-barriers - but the non-PAE and 64-bit side needs an ACCESS_ONCE() to make sure the pte value is observed only once. - make the checks a bit stricter so that we can feed it any kind of cra^H^H^H user-space input ;-) Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2009-06-18function-graph: add stack frame testSteven Rostedt
In case gcc does something funny with the stack frames, or the return from function code, we would like to detect that. An arch may implement passing of a variable that is unique to the function and can be saved on entering a function and can be tested when exiting the function. Usually the frame pointer can be used for this purpose. This patch also implements this for x86. Where it passes in the stack frame of the parent function, and will test that frame on exit. There was a case in x86_32 with optimize for size (-Os) where, for a few functions, gcc would align the stack frame and place a copy of the return address into it. The function graph tracer modified the copy and not the actual return address. On return from the funtion, it did not go to the tracer hook, but returned to the parent. This broke the function graph tracer, because the return of the parent (where gcc did not do this funky manipulation) returned to the location that the child function was suppose to. This caused strange kernel crashes. This test detected the problem and pointed out where the issue was. This modifies the parameters of one of the functions that the arch specific code calls, so it includes changes to arch code to accommodate the new prototype. Note, I notice that the parsic arch implements its own push_return_trace. This is now a generic function and the ftrace_push_return_trace should be used instead. This patch does not touch that code.

2009-06-18gcov: add gcov profiling infrastructurePeter Oberparleiter
Enable the use of GCC's coverage testing tool gcov [1] with the Linux kernel. gcov may be useful for: * debugging (has this code been reached at all?) * test improvement (how do I change my test to cover these lines?) * minimizing kernel configurations (do I need this option if the associated code is never run?) The profiling patch incorporates the following changes: * change kbuild to include profiling flags * provide functions needed by profiling code * present profiling data as files in debugfs Note that on some architectures, enabling gcc's profiling option "-fprofile-arcs" for the entire kernel may trigger compile/link/ run-time problems, some of which are caused by toolchain bugs and others which require adjustment of architecture code. For this reason profiling the entire kernel is initially restricted to those architectures for which it is known to work without changes. This restriction can be lifted once an architecture has been tested and found compatible with gcc's profiling. Profiling of single files or directories is still available on all platforms (see config help text).

GCC 4.5.0 complains about the declaration of variables __kernel_sigreturn and __kernel_rt_sigreturn because they have type void.

2009-06-18perf_counter: powerpc: Add processor back-end for MPC7450 familyPaul Mackerras
This adds support for the performance monitor hardware on the MPC7450 family of processors (7450, 7451, 7455, 7447/7457, 7447A, 7448), used in the later Apple G4 powermacs/powerbooks and other machines. These machines have 6 hardware counters with a unique set of events which can be counted on each counter, with some events being available on multiple counters. Raw event codes for these processors are (PMC << 8) + PMCSEL. If PMC is non-zero then the event is that selected by the given PMCSEL value for that PMC (hardware counter). If PMC is zero then the event selected is one of the low-numbered ones that are common to several PMCs. In this case PMCSEL must be <= 22 and the event is what that PMCSEL value would select on PMC1 (but it may be placed any other PMC that has the same event for that PMCSEL value). For events that count cycles or occurrences that exceed a threshold, the threshold requested can be specified in the 0x3f000 bits of the raw event codes. If the event uses the threshold multiplier bit and that bit should be set, that is indicated with the 0x40000 bit of the raw event code. This fills in some of the generic cache events. Unfortunately there are quite a few blank spaces in the table, partly because these processors tend to count cache hits rather than cache accesses.

2009-06-18perf_counter: powerpc: Make powerpc perf_counter code safe for 32-bit kernelsPaul Mackerras
This abstracts a few things in arch/powerpc/kernel/perf_counter.c that are specific to 64-bit kernels, and provides definitions for 32-bit kernels. In particular, * Only 64-bit has MMCRA and the bits in it that give information about a PMU interrupt (sampled PR, HV, slot number etc.) * Only 64-bit has the lppaca and the lppaca->pmcregs_in_use field * Use of SDAR is confined to 64-bit for now * Only 64-bit has soft/lazy interrupt disable and therefore pseudo-NMIs (interrupts that occur while interrupts are soft-disabled) * Only 64-bit has PMC7 and PMC8 * Only 64-bit has the MSR_HV bit. This also fixes the types used in a couple of places, where we were using long types for things that need to be 64-bit.
