| * Allow one litmus_lock to control multiple fdsos.Bryan Ward2013-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | Each fdso in a resource group now points to a single litmus_lock object which will arbitrate access to each of the fdsos.

| * Move SEND_RESCHED tracing to preempt.cBjoern Brandenburg2012-10-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SEND_RESCHED is really only interesting if the IPI was generated by LITMUS^RT. Therefore, we don't need to trace in Linux's architecture-specific code. Instead, we hook into the preemption state machine, which is informed about incoming IPIs anyway.
| * Trace IPI-related IRQs with ft_irq_fired()Bjoern Brandenburg2012-10-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | IPIs have some special cases where irq_enter() is not called. This caused ft_irq_fired() to "miss" some rescheduling-related interrupts, which in turn may cause outliers. This patch makes sure ft_irq_fired() is called on scheduling-related IPIs.
| * Update to improved x86 Feather-Trace triggersBjoern Brandenburg2012-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch imports recent upstream changes in Feather-Trace that reduce register pressure around Feather-Trace triggers.

| * Update PULL_TIMERS_VECTOR numberAndrea Bastoni2011-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | From 2.6.39 the "0xee" vector number that we used for pull_timers low-level management is is use by invalidate_tlb_X interrupts. Move the pull_timers vector below the max size of invalidate_tlb.
| * Fix prototype mismatching and synch syscall numbersAndrea Bastoni2011-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | * Update prototypes for switched_to(), prio_changed(), select_task_rq(). * Fix missing pid field in printk output. * Synchronize syscall numbers for arm and x86.

This used to be a standard path before the removal of BKL.

| * | | Make platform-specific Feather-Trace depend on !CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATABjoern B. Brandenburg2010-06-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Feather-Trace rewrites instructions in the kernel's .text segment. This segment may be write-protected if CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is selected. In this case, fall back to the default flag-based Feather-Trace implementation. In the future, we could either adopt the ftrace method of rewriting .text addresses using non-.text mappings or we could consider replacing Feather-Trace with ftrace altogether. For now, this patch avoids unexpected runtime errors.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | C-EDF depends on intel_cacheinfo.c (for get_shared_cpu_map()) which is only available on x86 architectures. Furthermore, get_shared_cpu_map() is only available if SYSFS filesystem is present.

| * | | Make __ARCH_HAS_FEATHER_TRACE a proper CONFIG_ variable.Bjoern B. Brandenburg2010-05-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The idea of the Feather-Trace default implementation is that LITMUS^RT should work without a specialized Feather-Trace implementation present. This was actually broken. Changes litmus/feather_trace.h to only include asm/feather_trace.h if actually promised by the architecture.

Async page fault is different from other exceptions that it may be triggered from idle process, so we still need rcu_irq_enter() and rcu_irq_exit() to exit cpu idle eqs when needed, to protect the code that needs use rcu. As Frederic pointed out it would be safest and simplest to protect the whole kvm_async_pf_task_wait(). Otherwise, "we need to check all the code there deeply for potential RCU uses and ensure it will never be extended later to use RCU.". However, We'd better re-enter the cpu idle eqs if we get the exception in cpu idle eqs, by calling rcu_irq_exit() before native_safe_halt(). So the patch does what Frederic suggested for rcu_irq_*() API usage here, except that I moved the rcu_irq_*() pair originally in do_async_page_fault() into kvm_async_pf_task_wait(). That's because, I think it's better to have rcu_irq_*() pairs to be in one function ( rcu_irq_exit() after rcu_irq_enter() ), especially here, kvm_async_pf_task_wait() has other callers, which might cause rcu_irq_exit() be called without a matching rcu_irq_enter() before it, which is illegal if the cpu happens to be in rcu idle state.

This requires minor changes to some architectures which make use of dma-debug. Most of these changes have the respective Acks by the Arch-Maintainers. Besides that there are updates to the AMD IOMMU driver for refactor the IOMMU-Groups support and to make sure it does not trigger a hardware erratum. The OMAP changes (for which I pulled in a branch from Tony Lindgren's tree) have a conflict in linux-next with the arm-soc tree. The conflict is in the file arch/arm/mach-omap2/clock44xx_data.c which is deleted in the arm-soc tree. It is safe to delete the file too so solve the conflict. Similar changes are done in the arm-soc tree in the common clock framework migration.

This interface clears a flag set by debug_dma_map_page() to indicate that dma_mapping_error() has been called by the driver. When driver does unmap, debug_dma_unmap() checks the flag and if this flag is still set, prints warning message that includes call trace that leads up to the unmap. This interface can be called from dma_mapping_error() routines to enable dma mapping error check debugging. Tested: Intel iommu and swiotlb (iommu=soft) on x86-64 with CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG enabled and disabled.

Since the init_module syscall hands the kernel a module as a memory blob, no reasoning about the origin of the blob can be made. Earlier proposals for appending signatures to kernel modules would not be useful in Chrome OS, since it would involve adding an additional set of keys to our kernel and builds for no good reason: we already trust the contents of our root filesystem. We don't need to verify those kernel modules a second time. Having to do signature checking on module loading would slow us down and be redundant. All we need to know is where a module is coming from so we can say yes/no to loading it. If a file descriptor is used as the source of a kernel module, many more things can be reasoned about. In Chrome OS's case, we could enforce that the module lives on the filesystem we expect it to live on. In the case of IMA (or other LSMs), it would be possible, for example, to examine extended attributes that may contain signatures over the contents of the module. This introduces a new syscall (on x86), similar to init_module, that has only two arguments. The first argument is used as a file descriptor to the module and the second argument is a pointer to the NULL terminated string of module arguments.
