* x86: consolidate the cpu/ related code usageThomas Gleixner2007-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The x86_64 arch/x86/kernel/Makefile uses references into arch/x86/kernel/cpu/... to use code from there. Unifiy it with the nicely structured i386 way and reuse the existing subdirectory make rules. Also move the machine check related source into ...kernel/cpu/mcheck, where the other machine check related code is. No code change.

* x86: fix more TSC clock source calibration errorsDave Johnson2007-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous patch wasn't correctly handling the 'count' variable. If a CPU gave bad results on the 1st or 2nd run but good results on the 3rd, it wouldn't do the correct thing. No idea if any such CPU exists, but the patch below handles that case by discarding the bad runs. If a bad result (too quick, or too slow) occurs on any of the 3 runs it will be discarded. Also updated some comments to explain what's going on.

* x86: fix TSC clock source calibration errorDave Johnson2007-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I ran into this problem on a system that was unable to obtain NTP sync because the clock was running very slow (over 10000ppm slow). ntpd had declared all of its peers 'reject' with 'peer_dist' reason. On investigation, the tsc_khz variable was significantly incorrect causing xtime to run slow. After a reboot tsc_khz was correct so I did a reboot test to see how often the problem occurred: Test was done on a 2000 Mhz Xeon system. Of 689 reboots, 8 of them had unacceptable tsc_khz values (>500ppm): range of tsc_khz # of boots % of boots ---------------- ---------- ---------- < 1999750 0 0.000% 1999750 - 1999800 21 3.048% 1999800 - 1999850 166 24.128% 1999850 - 1999900 241 35.029% 1999900 - 1999950 211 30.669% 1999950 - 2000000 42 6.105% 2000000 - 2000000 0 0.000% 2000050 - 2000100 0 0.000% [...] 2000100 - 2015000 1 0.145% << BAD 2015000 - 2030000 6 0.872% << BAD 2030000 - 2045000 1 0.145% << BAD 2045000 < 0 0.000% The worst boot was 2032.577 Mhz, over 1.5% off! It appears that on rare occasions, mach_countup() is taking longer to complete than necessary. I suspect that this is caused by the CPU taking a periodic SMI interrupt right at the end of the 30ms calibration loop. This would cause the loop to delay while the SMI BIOS hander runs. The resulting TSC value is beyond what it actually should be resulting in a higher tsc_khz. The below patch makes native_calculate_cpu_khz() take the best (shortest duration, lowest khz) run of it's 3 calibration loops. If a SMI goes off causing a bad result (long duration, higher khz) it will be discarded. With the patch applied, 300 boots of the same system produce good results: range of tsc_khz # of boots % of boots ---------------- ---------- ---------- < 1999750 0 0.000% 1999750 - 1999800 30 10.000% 1999800 - 1999850 166 55.333% 1999850 - 1999900 89 29.667% 1999900 - 1999950 15 5.000% 1999950 < 0 0.000% Problem was found and tested against 2.6.18.

* x86: lock bitopsNick Piggin2007-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I missed an obvious one! x86 CPUs are defined not to reorder stores past earlier loads, so there is no hardware memory barrier required to implement a release-consistent store (all stores are, by definition). So ditch the generic lock bitops, and implement optimised versions for x86, which removes the mfence from __clear_bit_unlock (which is already a useful primitive for SLUB).

This happened to work for ia64, powerpc, sparc64 and x86 because they happened to drag in that file via their <asm/dma-mapping.h>. On most of the others this probably broke.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current INIT_HCA firmware command timeout is sufficient for the default number of resources (QPs, CQs, etc) being allocated, but if the HCA profile is modified to increase the amount of resources, then a spurious timeout is detected and HCA initialization fails.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 9ead190b ("IB/uverbs: Don't serialize with ib_uverbs_idr_mutex") rewrote how userspace objects are looked up in the uverbs module's idrs, and introduced a severe bug in the process: there is no checking that an operation is being performed by the right process any more. Fix this by adding the missing check of uobj->context in __idr_get_uobj(). Apparently everyone is being very careful to only touch their own objects, because this bug was introduced in June 2006 in 2.6.18, and has gone undetected until now.

The minimum sq stride value below is taken from the MT25408 PRM (section 11.10, Table 306, log_sq_stride definition).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Deadlock condition reported by Kanoj Sarcar <kanoj@netxen.com>. The deadlock occurs when a connection request arrives at the same time that a wildcard listen is being destroyed. A wildcard listen maintains per device listen requests for each RDMA device in the system. The per device listens are automatically added and removed when RDMA devices are inserted or removed from the system. When a wildcard listen is destroyed, rdma_destroy_id() acquires the rdma_cm's device mutex ('lock') to protect against hot-plug events adding or removing per device listens. It then tries to destroy the per device listens by calling ib_destroy_cm_id() or iw_destroy_cm_id(). It does this while holding the device mutex. However, if the underlying iw/ib CM reports a connection request while this is occurring, the rdma_cm callback function will try to acquire the same device mutex. Since we're in a callback, the ib_destroy_cm_id() or iw_destroy_cm_id() calls will block until their callback thread returns, but the callback is blocked waiting for the device mutex. Fix this by re-working how per device listens are destroyed. Use rdma_destroy_id(), which avoids the deadlock, in place of cma_destroy_listen(). Additional synchronization is added to handle device hot-plug events and ensure that the id is not destroyed twice.

| * RDMA/cma: Add locking around QP accessesSean Hefty2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a user allocates a QP on an rdma_cm_id, the rdma_cm will automatically transition the QP through its states (RTR, RTS, error, etc.) While the QP state transitions are occurring, the QP itself must remain valid. Provide locking around the QP pointer to prevent its destruction while accessing the pointer. This fixes an issue reported by Olaf Kirch from Oracle that resulted in a system crash: "An incoming connection arrives and we decide to tear down the nascent connection. The remote ends decides to do the same. We start to shut down the connection, and call rdma_destroy_qp on our cm_id. ... Now apparently a 'connect reject' message comes in from the other host, and cma_ib_handler() is called with an event of IB_CM_REJ_RECEIVED. It calls cma_modify_qp_err, which for some odd reason tries to modify the exact same QP we just destroyed."

| * | generalize lgread_u32/lgwrite_u32.Rusty Russell2007-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Jes complains that page table code still uses lgread_u32 even though it now uses general kernel pte types. The best thing to do is to generalize lgread_u32 and lgwrite_u32. This means we lose the efficiency of getuser(). We could potentially regain it if we used __copy_from_user instead of copy_from_user, but I'm not certain that our range check is equivalent to access_ok() on all platforms.

| * | Example launcher handle guests not being ready for inputRusty Russell2007-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently discard console and network input when the guest has no input buffers. This patch changes that, so that we simply stop listening to that fd until the guest refills its input buffers. This is particularly important because hvc_console without interrupts does backoff polling and so often lose characters if we discard. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
| * | Update example launcher for virtioRusty Russell2007-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implements virtio-based console, network and block servers. The block server uses a thread so it's async, which is an improvement over the old synchronous implementation (but a little more complex). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
