The inline assembly in drivers/watchdog/hpwdt.c was incredibly broken, and included all the function prologue and epilogue stuff, even though it was itself then inside a C function where the compiler would add its own prologue and epilogue on top of it all. This then just _happened_ to work if you had exactly the right compiler version and exactly the right compiler flags, so that gcc just happened to not create any prologue at all (the gcc-generated epilogue wouldn't matter, since it would never be reached). But the more proper way to fix it is to simply not do this. Move the inline asm to the top level, with no surrounding function at all (the better alternative would be to remove the prologue and make it actually use proper description of the arguments to the inline asm, but that's a bigger change than the one I'm willing to make right now).

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki and Oleg Nesterov point out that since the commit 557ed1fa ("remove ZERO_PAGE") removed the ZERO_PAGE from the VM mappings, any users of get_user_pages() will generally now populate the VM with real empty pages needlessly. We used to get the ZERO_PAGE when we did the "handle_mm_fault()", but since fault handling no longer uses ZERO_PAGE for new anonymous pages, we now need to handle that special case in follow_page() instead. In particular, the removal of ZERO_PAGE effectively removed the core file writing optimization where we would skip writing pages that had not been populated at all, and increased memory pressure a lot by allocating all those useless newly zeroed pages. This reinstates the optimization by making the unmapped PTE case the same as for a non-existent page table, which already did this correctly. While at it, this also fixes the XIP case for follow_page(), where the caller could not differentiate between the case of a page that simply could not be used (because it had no "struct page" associated with it) and a page that just wasn't mapped. We do that by simply returning an error pointer for pages that could not be turned into a "struct page *". The error is arbitrarily picked to be EFAULT, since that was what get_user_pages() already used for the equivalent IO-mapped page case. [ Also removed an impossible test for pte_offset_map_lock() failing: that's not how that function works ] Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Acked-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This patch corrects the incorrect value of per process run-queue wait time reported by delay statistics. The anomaly was due to the following reason. When a process leaves the CPU and immediately starts waiting for CPU on the runqueue (which means it remains in the TASK_RUNNABLE state), the time of re-entry into the run-queue is never recorded. Due to this, the waiting time on the runqueue from this point of re-entry upto the next time it hits the CPU is not accounted for. This is solved by recording the time of re-entry of a process leaving the CPU in the sched_info_depart() function IF the process will go back to waiting on the run-queue. This IF condition is verified by checking whether the process is still in the TASK_RUNNABLE state. The patch was tested on 2.6.26-rc6 using two simple CPU hog programs. The values noted prior to the fix did not account for the time spent on the runqueue waiting. After the fix, the correct values were reported back to user space.

Booting 2.6.26-rc6 on my 486 DX/4 fails with a "BUG: Int 6" (invalid opcode) and a kernel halt immediately after the kernel has been uncompressed. The BUG shows EIP pointing to an rdtsc instruction in native_read_tsc(), invoked from native_sched_clock(). (This error occurs so early that not even the serial console can capture it.) A bisection showed that this bug first occurs in 2.6.26-rc3-git7, via commit 9ccc906c: >x86: distangle user disabled TSC from unstable > >tsc_enabled is set to 0 from the command line switch "notsc" and from >the mark_tsc_unstable code. Seperate those functionalities and replace >tsc_enable with tsc_disable. This makes also the native_sched_clock() >decision when to use TSC understandable. > >Preparatory patch to solve the sched_clock() issue on 32 bit. > >Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> The core reason for this bug is that native_sched_clock() gets called before tsc_init(). Before the commit above, tsc_32.c used a "tsc_enabled" variable which defaulted to 0 == disabled, and which only got enabled late in tsc_init(). Thus early calls to native_sched_clock() would skip the TSC and use jiffies instead. After the commit above, tsc_32.c uses a "tsc_disabled" variable which defaults to 0, meaning that the TSC is Ok to use. Early calls to native_sched_clock() now erroneously try to use the TSC on !cpu_has_tsc processors, leading to invalid opcode exceptions. My proposed fix is to initialise tsc_disabled to a "soft disabled" state distinct from the hard disabled state set up by the "notsc" kernel option. This fixes the native_sched_clock() problem. It also allows tsc_init() to be simplified: instead of setting tsc_disabled = 1 on every error return, we just set tsc_disabled = 0 once when all checks have succeeded. I've verified that this lets my 486 boot again. I've also verified that a Core2 machine still uses the TSC as clocksource after the patch.

Somehow (as described below) TS_USEDFPU is set but the fpu is not allocated or freed. Another possible FPU pre-emption issue with the sleazy FPU optimization which was benign before but not so anymore, with the dynamic FPU allocation patch. New task is getting exec'd and it is prempted at the below point. flush_thread() { ... /* * Forget coprocessor state.. */ clear_fpu(tsk); <----- Preemption point clear_used_math(); ... } Now when it context switches in again, as the used_math() is still set and fpu_counter can be > 5, we will do a math_state_restore() which sets the task's TS_USEDFPU. After it continues from the above preemption point it does clear_used_math() and much later free_thread_xstate(). Now, at the next context switch, it is quite possible that xstate is null, used_math() is not set and TS_USEDFPU is still set. This will trigger unlazy_fpu() causing kernel oops. Fix this by clearing tsk's fpu_counter before clearing task's fpu.

When a 64-bit x86 processor runs in 32-bit PAE mode, a pte can potentially have the same number of physical address bits as the 64-bit host ("Enhanced Legacy PAE Paging"). This means, in theory, we could have up to 52 bits of physical address in a pte. The 32-bit kernel uses a 32-bit unsigned long to represent a pfn. This means that it can only represent physical addresses up to 32+12=44 bits wide. Rather than widening pfns everywhere, just set 2^44 as the Linux x86_32-PAE architectural limit for physical address size. This is a bugfix for two cases: 1. running a 32-bit PAE kernel on a machine with more than 64GB RAM. 2. running a 32-bit PAE Xen guest on a host machine with more than 64GB RAM In both cases, a pte could need to have more than 36 bits of physical, and masking it to 36-bits will cause fairly severe havoc.

Jason Wessel authored
The touch_nmi_watchdog() routine on x86 ultimately calls touch_softlockup_watchdog(). The problem is that to touch the softlockup watchdog, the cpu_clock code has to be called which could involve multiple cpu locks and can lead to a hard hang if one of the locks is held by a processor that is not going to return anytime soon (such as could be the case with kgdb or perhaps even with some other kind of exception). This patch causes the public version of the touch_softlockup_watchdog() to defer the cpu clock access to a later point. The test case for this problem is to use the following kernel config options: CONFIG_KGDB_TESTS=y CONFIG_KGDB_TESTS_ON_BOOT=y CONFIG_KGDB_TESTS_BOOT_STRING="V1F100I100000" It should be noted that kgdb test suite and these options were not available until 2.6.26-rc2, so it was necessary to patch the kgdb test suite during the bisection. I would consider this patch a regression fix because the problem first appeared in commit 27ec4407 when some logic was added to try to periodically sync the clocks. It was possible to work around this particular problem by simply not performing the sync anytime the system was in a critical context. This was ok until commit 3e51f33f, which added config option CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK and some multi-cpu locks to sync the clocks. It became clear that accessing this code from an nmi was the source of the lockups. Avoiding the access to the low level clock code from an code inside the NMI processing also fixed the problem with the 27ec44... commit.

First issue is not related to the cpusets. We're simply leaking doms_cur. It's allocated in arch_init_sched_domains() which is called for every hotplug event. So we just keep reallocation doms_cur without freeing it. I introduced free_sched_domains() function that cleans things up. Second issue is that sched domains created by the cpusets are completely destroyed by the CPU hotplug events. For all CPU hotplug events scheduler attaches all CPUs to the NULL domain and then puts them all into the single domain thereby destroying domains created by the cpusets (partition_sched_domains). The solution is simple, when cpusets are enabled scheduler should not create default domain and instead let cpusets do that. Which is exactly what the patch does.

The bandwidth throttle code dequeues a group when it runs out of quota, and re-queues it once the period rolls over and the quota gets refreshed. Sadly it failed to take the hierarchy into consideration. Share more of the enqueue/dequeue code with regular task opterations. Also, some operations like sched_setscheduler() can dequeue/enqueue tasks that are in throttled runqueues, we should not inadvertly re-enqueue empty runqueues so check for that.

Chip errata sometimes prevents reliable use of PIO commands which involve more than a single DRQ (data request). In normal operation, libata should not generate such PIO commands (uses DMA instead), but they could be sent in via SG_IO from userspace. A full workaround might be to break up such commands into sequences of single DRQ ones, but that's just way too complex for something that doesn't normally happen in real life. So, allow the attempt (it often works, despite the errata), but log the event for reference when somebody screams.

besides it apparently being useful only in 2.6.24 (the changes in 2.6.25 really mean that it could be converted back to a single-stage mechanism), I'm seeing an issue in Xen Dom0 kernels, which is caused by the calling of gart_to_virt() in the second stage invocations of the destroy function. I think that besides this being a real issue with Xen (where unmap_page_from_agp() is not just a page table attribute change), this also is invalid from a theoretical perspective: One should not assume that gart_to_virt() is still valid after unmapping a page. So minimally (keeping the 2-stage mechanism) a patch like the one below would be needed. Jan Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>
