The new problem, which has been affecting many more modules was that our new ioremap really takes chunks out of our vmalloc space. The net result being that any two kernel vmalloc's now have to slot into the chunked up space. So the vmallocs for a modules init and core sectons are no longer necessarily contiguous. Unfortunately, the module loader thinks that any internal symbol references should be satisfiable using the jump instruction, which isn't true if the symbol is referenced from init to core and vmalloc placed them a long way apart. Fix this by introducing a new stub type for intra module inter sectional jumps and using it. Signed-off-by:

Check PDC_CACHE to see if spaceid hashing is turned on, and fail to boot if that is the case. However, some old machines do not implement the PDC_CACHE_RET_SPID firmware call, so continue to boot if the call fails because of PDC_BAD_OPTION (but fail in all other error returns). Signed-off-by: -

pdc_stable v0.30: This patch introduces 3 more files to the /sys/firmware/stable tree: - diagnostic, which contains a cryptic hex string - osdep1, a 16 bytes os-dependent storage area always available - osdep2, another os-dependent storage area which existence/size depends on hversion. This patch also adds code to setup the "Linux" signature in stable storage. That is to say that starting with this patch, the kernel will now sign its OSID (0x0006, thx LaMont) in Stable Storage upon boot, whether pdc_stable is enabled or not. Signed-off-by:

pdc_chassis v0.05: Some machines seems not to implement Chassis warn support. Work around these. Also cleanup a bit of the code. Signed-off-by:

Thibaut Varene authored
This patch removes a limitation of the original code, so that CHASSIS codes can be sent to all machines. On machines with a LCD panel, this code displays "INI" during bootup, "RUN" when the system is booted and running, "FLT" when a panic occurs, etc. This part of the code can be enabled/disabled through CONFIG_PDC_CHASSIS This patch also adds minimalistic support for Chassis warnings, through a proc entry '/proc/chassis', which will reflect the warnings status (PSU or fans failure when they happen, NVRAM battery level and temperature thresholds overflows). This part of the code can be enabled/disabled through CONFIG_PDC_CHASSIS_WARN Signed-off-by:

Joel Soete noticed correctly that the fixup's clobbers must be listed as the ASM clobbers. FIXUP_BRANCH in unaligned.c has a new macro which lists all the clobbers in the fixup, we use this throughout the file to simplify the process of listing clobbers in the future. A missing "r1" clobber is added to our uaccess.h for the 64-bit __put_kernel_asm. Interestingly this is a pretty serious bug since gcc generates pretty good use of r1 as a temporary and the uses of __put_kernel_asm are varied and dangerous if r1 is scratched during an invalid write.

This patch will fix a boot memory reservation bug that trashes memory on the ES7000 when loading the kdump crash kernel. The code in arch/x86_64/kernel/setup.c to reserve boot memory for the crash kernel uses the non-numa aware "reserve_bootmem" function instead of the NUMA aware "reserve_bootmem_generic". I checked to make sure that no other function was using "reserve_bootmem" and found none, except the ones that had NUMA ifdef'ed out. I have tested this patch only on an ES7000 with NUMA on and off (numa=off) in a single (non-NUMA) and multi-cell (NUMA) configurations. Signed-off-by:

In current 2.6.17 implementation, signal_struct refered from task_struct is used for per-process data structure. The pacct facility also uses it as a per-process data structure to store stime, utime, minflt, majflt. But those members are saved in __exit_signal(). It's too late. For example, if some threads exits at same time, pacct facility has a possibility to drop accountings for a part of those threads. (see, the following 'The results of original 2.6.17 kernel') I think accounting information should be completely collected into the per-process data structure before writing out an accounting record. This patch fixes this matter. Accumulation of stime, utime, minflt and majflt are done before generating accounting record.

When pacct facility generate an 'ac_flag' field in accounting record, it refers a task_struct of the thread which died last in the process. But any other task_structs are ignored. Therefore, pacct facility drops ASU flag even if root-privilege operations are used by any other threads except the last one. In addition, AFORK flag is always set when the thread of group-leader didn't die last, although this process has called execve() after fork(). We have a same matter in ac_exitcode. The recorded ac_exitcode is an exit code of the last thread in the process. There is a possibility this exitcode is not the group leader's one.

The pacct facility need an i/o operation when an accounting record is generated. There is a possibility to wake OOM killer up. If OOM killer is activated, it kills some processes to make them release process memory regions. But acct_process() is called in the killed processes context before calling exit_mm(), so those processes cannot release own memory. In the results, any processes stop in this point and it finally cause a system stall.
