Original patch from Bertro Simul This is probably still not quite correct, but seems to be the best solution so far. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

This is the same patch that went into i386 just before 2.6.13 came out. I still can't build 64-bit user apps, so I tested with program (see below) in 32-bit mode on 64-bit kernel: Before: $ fpsig handler: nr = 8, si = 0x0804bc90, vuc = 0x0804bd10 handler: altstack is at 0x0804b000, ebp = 0x0804bc7c handler: si_signo = 8, si_errno = 0, si_code = 0 [unknown] handler: fpu cwd = 0xb40, fpu swd = 0xbaa0 handler: i387 unmasked precision exception, rounded up After: $ fpsig handler: nr = 8, si = 0x0804bc90, vuc = 0x0804bd10 handler: altstack is at 0x0804b000, ebp = 0x0804bc7c handler: si_signo = 8, si_errno = 0, si_code = 6 [inexact result] handler: fpu cwd = 0xb40, fpu swd = 0xbaa0 handler: i387 unmasked precision exception, rounded up Signed-off-by: Chuck Ebbert <76306.1226@compuserve.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Being the foundation for reliable stack unwinding, this fixes CFI unwind annotations in many low-level x86_64 routines, plus a config option (available to all architectures, and also present in the previously sent patch adding such annotations to i386 code) to enable them separatly rather than only along with adding full debug information.

Nick points out it never worked because PageReserved was set and it might cause problems later on. Also HOTPLUG_CPU is much more common now so let's care not too much about the !hotplug case.

As noted by matz@suse.de The problem is, that on i386 the syscallN macro is defined like so: long __res; \ __asm__ volatile ("int $0x80" \ : "=a" (__res) \ : "0" (__NR_##name),"b" ((long)(arg1)),"c" ((long)(arg2)), \ "d" ((long)(arg3)),"S" ((long)(arg4)),"D" ((long)(arg5))); \ If one of the arguments (in the _llseek syscall it's the arg4) is a pointer which the syscall is expected to write to (to the memory pointed to by this ptr), then this side-effect is not captured in the asm. If anyone uses this macro to define it's own version of the syscall (sometimes necessary when not using glibc) and it's inlined, then GCC doesn't know that this asm write to "*dest", when called like so for instance: out = 1; llseek (fd, bla, blubb, &out, trara) use (out); Here nobody tells GCC that "out" actually is written to (just a pointer to it is passed to the asm). Hence GCC might (and in the above bug did) copy-propagate "1" into the second use of "out". The easiest solution would be to add a "memory" clobber to the definition of this syscall macro. As this is a syscall, it shouldn't inhibit too many optimizations. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

The generic TLB flush functions kept upto 506 pages per CPU to avoid too frequent IPIs. This value was done for the L1 cache of older x86 CPUs, but with modern CPUs it does not make much sense anymore. TLB flushing is slow enough that using the L2 cache is fine. This patch increases the flush array on x86-64 to cache 5350 pages. That is roughly 20MB with 4K pages. It speeds up large munmaps in multithreaded processes on SMP considerably. The cost is roughly 42k of memory per CPU, which is reasonable. I only increased it on x86-64 for now, but it would probably make sense to increase it everywhere. Embedded architectures with SMP may keep it smaller to save some memory per CPU. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Instead of using a global spinlock to protect the state of the remote TLB flush use a lock and state for each sending CPU. To tell the receiver where to look for the state use 8 different call vectors. Each CPU uses a specific vector to trigger flushes on other CPUs. Depending on the received vector the target CPUs look into the right per cpu variable for the flush data. When the system has more than 8 CPUs they are hashed to the 8 available vectors. The limited global vector space forces us to this right now. In future when interrupts are split into per CPU domains this could be fixed, at the cost of needing more IPIs in flat mode. Also some minor cleanup in the smp flush code and remove some outdated debug code. Requires patch to move cpu_possible_map setup earlier.

If we use 64bit kernel on ia64/x86_64/s390 architecture, and we run 32bit binary on 32bit compatibility mode, sendfile system call seems be not set offset argument. This is because sendfile's return value is not zero but the code regards the result by return value is zero or not. This problem will be affect to ia64/x86_64/s390 and not affect to other architecture does not affect other architecture (mips/parisc/ppc64/sparc64).
