2005-09-05[PATCH] Uml support: add PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP option to i386Bodo Stroesser
This patch implements the new ptrace option PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP, which can be used by UML to singlestep a process: it will receive SINGLESTEP interceptions for normal instructions and syscalls, but syscall execution will be skipped just like with PTRACE_SYSEMU.

2005-09-05[PATCH] UML Support - Ptrace: adds the host SYSEMU support, for UML and ↵Laurent Vivier
general usage Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com>, Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade_spam@yahoo.it>, Bodo Stroesser <bstroesser@fujitsu-siemens.com> Adds a new ptrace(2) mode, called PTRACE_SYSEMU, resembling PTRACE_SYSCALL except that the kernel does not execute the requested syscall; this is useful to improve performance for virtual environments, like UML, which want to run the syscall on their own. In fact, using PTRACE_SYSCALL means stopping child execution twice, on entry and on exit, and each time you also have two context switches; with SYSEMU you avoid the 2nd stop and so save two context switches per syscall. Also, some architectures don't have support in the host for changing the syscall number via ptrace(), which is currently needed to skip syscall execution (UML turns any syscall into getpid() to avoid it being executed on the host). Fixing that is hard, while SYSEMU is easier to implement. * This version of the patch includes some suggestions of Jeff Dike to avoid adding any instructions to the syscall fast path, plus some other little changes, by myself, to make it work even when the syscall is executed with SYSENTER (but I'm unsure about them). It has been widely tested for quite a lot of time. * Various fixed were included to handle the various switches between various states, i.e. when for instance a syscall entry is traced with one of PT_SYSCALL / _SYSEMU / _SINGLESTEP and another one is used on exit. Basically, this is done by remembering which one of them was used even after the call to ptrace_notify(). * We're combining TIF_SYSCALL_EMU with TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE or TIF_SINGLESTEP to make do_syscall_trace() notice that the current syscall was started with SYSEMU on entry, so that no notification ought to be done in the exit path; this is a bit of a hack, so this problem is solved in another way in next patches. * Also, the effects of the patch: "Ptrace - i386: fix Syscall Audit interaction with singlestep" are cancelled; they are restored back in the last patch of this series. Detailed descriptions of the patches doing this kind of processing follow (but I've already summed everything up). * Fix behaviour when changing interception kind #1. In do_syscall_trace(), we check the status of the TIF_SYSCALL_EMU flag only after doing the debugger notification; but the debugger might have changed the status of this flag because he continued execution with PTRACE_SYSCALL, so this is wrong. This patch fixes it by saving the flag status before calling ptrace_notify(). * Fix behaviour when changing interception kind #2: avoid intercepting syscall on return when using SYSCALL again. A guest process switching from using PTRACE_SYSEMU to PTRACE_SYSCALL crashes. The problem is in arch/i386/kernel/entry.S. The current SYSEMU patch inhibits the syscall-handler to be called, but does not prevent do_syscall_trace() to be called after this for syscall completion interception. The appended patch fixes this. It reuses the flag TIF_SYSCALL_EMU to remember "we come from PTRACE_SYSEMU and now are in PTRACE_SYSCALL", since the flag is unused in the depicted situation. * Fix behaviour when changing interception kind #3: avoid intercepting syscall on return when using SINGLESTEP. When testing 2.6.9 and the skas3.v6 patch, with my latest patch and had problems with singlestepping on UML in SKAS with SYSEMU. It looped receiving SIGTRAPs without moving forward. EIP of the traced process was the same for all SIGTRAPs. What's missing is to handle switching from PTRACE_SYSCALL_EMU to PTRACE_SINGLESTEP in a way very similar to what is done for the change from PTRACE_SYSCALL_EMU to PTRACE_SYSCALL_TRACE. I.e., after calling ptrace(PTRACE_SYSEMU), on the return path, the debugger is notified and then wake ups the process; the syscall is executed (or skipped, when do_syscall_trace() returns 0, i.e. when using PTRACE_SYSEMU), and do_syscall_trace() is called again. Since we are on the return path of a SYSEMU'd syscall, if the wake up is performed through ptrace(PTRACE_SYSCALL), we must still avoid notifying the parent of the syscall exit. Now, this behaviour is extended even to resuming with PTRACE_SINGLESTEP.

2005-09-05[PATCH] x86: fix EFI memory map parsingMatt Tolentino
The memory descriptors that comprise the EFI memory map are not fixed in stone such that the size could change in the future. This uses the memory descriptor size obtained from EFI to iterate over the memory map entries during boot. This enables the removal of an x86 specific pad (and ifdef) in the EFI header. I also couldn't stomach the broken up nature of the function to put EFI runtime calls into virtual mode any longer so I fixed that up a bit as well. For reference, this patch only impacts x86.

2005-09-05[PATCH] remove hugetlb_clean_stale_pgtable() and fix huge_pte_alloc()Chen, Kenneth W
I don't think we need to call hugetlb_clean_stale_pgtable() anymore in 2.6.13 because of the rework with free_pgtables(). It now collect all the pte page at the time of munmap. It used to only collect page table pages when entire one pgd can be freed and left with staled pte pages. Not anymore with 2.6.13. This function will never be called and We should turn it into a BUG_ON. I also spotted two problems here, not Adam's fault :-) (1) in huge_pte_alloc(), it looks like a bug to me that pud is not checked before calling pmd_alloc() (2) in hugetlb_clean_stale_pgtable(), it also missed a call to pmd_free_tlb. I think a tlb flush is required to flush the mapping for the page table itself when we clear out the pmd pointing to a pte page. However, since hugetlb_clean_stale_pgtable() is never called, so it won't trigger the bug.

2005-09-05[PATCH] arm: allow for arch-specific IOREMAP_MAX_ORDERDeepak Saxena
Version 6 of the ARM architecture introduces the concept of 16MB pages (supersections) and 36-bit (40-bit actually, but nobody uses this) physical addresses. 36-bit addressed memory and I/O and ARMv6 can only be mapped using supersections and the requirement on these is that both virtual and physical addresses be 16MB aligned. In trying to add support for ioremap() of 36-bit I/O, we run into the issue that get_vm_area() allows for a maximum of 512K alignment via the IOREMAP_MAX_ORDER constant. To work around this, we can: - Allocate a larger VM area than needed (size + (1ul << IOREMAP_MAX_ORDER)) and then align the pointer ourselves, but this ends up with 512K of wasted VM per ioremap(). - Provide a new __get_vm_area_aligned() API and make __get_vm_area() sit on top of this. I did this and it works but I don't like the idea adding another VM API just for this one case. - My preferred solution which is to allow the architecture to override the IOREMAP_MAX_ORDER constant with it's own version.

2005-09-05[PATCH] /proc/<pid>/numa_maps to show on which nodes pages resideChristoph Lameter
This patch was recently discussed on linux-mm: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=112085728500002&r=1&w=2 I inherited a large code base from Ray for page migration. There was a small patch in there that I find to be very useful since it allows the display of the locality of the pages in use by a process. I reworked that patch and came up with a /proc/<pid>/numa_maps that gives more information about the vma's of a process. numa_maps is indexes by the start address found in /proc/<pid>/maps. F.e. with this patch you can see the page use of the "getty" process: margin:/proc/12008 # cat maps 00000000-00004000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 2000000000000000-200000000002c000 r-xp 00000000 08:04 516 /lib/ld-2.3.3.so 2000000000038000-2000000000040000 rw-p 00028000 08:04 516 /lib/ld-2.3.3.so 2000000000040000-2000000000044000 rw-p 2000000000040000 00:00 0 2000000000058000-2000000000260000 r-xp 00000000 08:04 54707842 /lib/tls/libc.so.6.1 2000000000260000-2000000000268000 ---p 00208000 08:04 54707842 /lib/tls/libc.so.6.1 2000000000268000-2000000000274000 rw-p 00200000 08:04 54707842 /lib/tls/libc.so.6.1 2000000000274000-2000000000280000 rw-p 2000000000274000 00:00 0 2000000000280000-20000000002b4000 r--p 00000000 08:04 9126923 /usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_CTYPE 2000000000300000-2000000000308000 r--s 00000000 08:04 60071467 /usr/lib/gconv/gconv-modules.cache 2000000000318000-2000000000328000 rw-p 2000000000318000 00:00 0 4000000000000000-4000000000008000 r-xp 00000000 08:04 29576399 /sbin/mingetty 6000000000004000-6000000000008000 rw-p 00004000 08:04 29576399 /sbin/mingetty 6000000000008000-600000000002c000 rw-p 6000000000008000 00:00 0 [heap] 60000fff7fffc000-60000fff80000000 rw-p 60000fff7fffc000 00:00 0 60000ffffff44000-60000ffffff98000 rw-p 60000ffffff44000 00:00 0 [stack] a000000000000000-a000000000020000 ---p 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] cat numa_maps 2000000000000000 default MaxRef=43 Pages=11 Mapped=11 N0=4 N1=3 N2=2 N3=2 2000000000038000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=2 Mapped=2 Anon=2 N0=2 2000000000040000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N0=1 2000000000058000 default MaxRef=43 Pages=61 Mapped=61 N0=14 N1=15 N2=16 N3=16 2000000000268000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=2 Mapped=2 Anon=2 N0=2 2000000000274000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=3 Mapped=3 Anon=3 N0=3 2000000000280000 default MaxRef=8 Pages=3 Mapped=3 N0=3 2000000000300000 default MaxRef=8 Pages=2 Mapped=2 N0=2 2000000000318000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N2=1 4000000000000000 default MaxRef=6 Pages=2 Mapped=2 N1=2 6000000000004000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N0=1 6000000000008000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N0=1 60000fff7fffc000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N0=1 60000ffffff44000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N0=1 getty uses ld.so.

2005-09-05[PATCH] swap: swap_lock replace list+deviceHugh Dickins
The idea of a swap_device_lock per device, and a swap_list_lock over them all, is appealing; but in practice almost every holder of swap_device_lock must already hold swap_list_lock, which defeats the purpose of the split. The only exceptions have been swap_duplicate, valid_swaphandles and an untrodden path in try_to_unuse (plus a few places added in this series). valid_swaphandles doesn't show up high in profiles, but swap_duplicate does demand attention. However, with the hold time in get_swap_pages so much reduced, I've not yet found a load and set of swap device priorities to show even swap_duplicate benefitting from the split. Certainly the split is mere overhead in the common case of a single swap device. So, replace swap_list_lock and swap_device_lock by spinlock_t swap_lock (generally we seem to prefer an _ in the name, and not hide in a macro). If someone can show a regression in swap_duplicate, then probably we should add a hashlock for the swap_map entries alone (shorts being anatomic), so as to help the case of the single swap device too.

2005-09-05[PATCH] swap: scan_swap_map drop swap_device_lockHugh Dickins
get_swap_page has often shown up on latency traces, doing lengthy scans while holding two spinlocks. swap_list_lock is already dropped, now scan_swap_map drop swap_device_lock before scanning the swap_map. While scanning for an empty cluster, don't worry that racing tasks may allocate what was free and free what was allocated; but when allocating an entry, check it's still free after retaking the lock. Avoid dropping the lock in the expected common path. No barriers beyond the locks, just let the cookie crumble; highest_bit limit is volatile, but benign. Guard against swapoff: must check SWP_WRITEOK before allocating, must raise SWP_SCANNING reference count while in scan_swap_map, swapoff wait for that to fall - just use schedule_timeout, we don't want to burden scan_swap_map itself, and it's very unlikely that anyone can really still be in scan_swap_map once swapoff gets this far.

And a couple of loops in add_swap_extent which go all the way through the list, when they should just add to the other end. Fix those up, and let map_swap_page search the list forwards: profiles shows it to be twice as quick that way - because prefetch works better on how the structs are typically kmalloc'ed? or because usually more is written to than read from swap, and swap is allocated ascendingly?

2005-09-05[PATCH] SPARSEMEM EXTREMEBob Picco
A new option for SPARSEMEM is ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME. Architecture platforms with a very sparse physical address space would likely want to select this option. For those architecture platforms that don't select the option, the code generated is equivalent to SPARSEMEM currently in -mm. I'll be posting a patch on ia64 ml which uses this new SPARSEMEM feature. ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME makes mem_section a one dimensional array of pointers to mem_sections. This two level layout scheme is able to achieve smaller memory requirements for SPARSEMEM with the tradeoff of an additional shift and load when fetching the memory section. The current SPARSEMEM -mm implementation is a one dimensional array of mem_sections which is the default SPARSEMEM configuration. The patch attempts isolates the implementation details of the physical layout of the sparsemem section array. ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME depends on 64BIT and is by default boolean false. I've boot tested under aim load ia64 configured for ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME. I've also boot tested a 4 way Opteron machine with !ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME and tested with aim.

2005-09-01[CRYPTO]: Added CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP flagHerbert Xu
The crypto layer currently uses in_atomic() to determine whether it is allowed to sleep. This is incorrect since spin locks don't always cause in_atomic() to return true. Instead of that, this patch returns to an earlier idea of a per-tfm flag which determines whether sleeping is allowed. Unlike the earlier version, the default is to not allow sleeping. This ensures that no existing code can break. As usual, this flag may either be set through crypto_alloc_tfm(), or just before a specific crypto operation.

2005-08-31[SERIAL] Clean up and fix tty transmission start/stopingRussell King
The start_tx and stop_tx methods were passed a flag to indicate whether the start/stop was from the tty start/stop callbacks, and some drivers used this flag to decide whether to ask the UART to immediately stop transmission (where the UART supports such a feature.) There are other cases when we wish this to occur - when CTS is lowered, or if we change from soft to hard flow control and CTS is inactive. In these cases, this flag was false, and we would allow the transmitter to drain before stopping. There is really only one case where we want to let the transmitter drain before disabling, and that's when we run out of characters to send. Hence, re-jig the start_tx and stop_tx methods to eliminate this flag, and introduce new functions for the special "disable and allow transmitter to drain" case.

2005-08-30[libata] allow ATAPI to be enabled with new atapi_enabled module optionJeff Garzik
ATAPI is getting close to being ready. To increase exposure, we enable the code in the upstream kernel, but default it to off (present behavior). Users must pass atapi_enabled=1 as a module option (if module) or on the kernel command line (if built in) to turn on discovery of their ATAPI devices.
