| | | | | | | | | | | | In order for the network device ops get_stats call to be immutable, the handling of the default internal network device stats block has to be changed. Add a new helper function which replaces the old use of internal_get_stats. Note: change return code to make it clear that the caller should not go changing the returned statistics.

* netdev: network device operations infrastructureStephen Hemminger2008-11-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes the network device internal API to move adminstrative operations out of the network device structure and into a separate structure. This patch involves some hackery to maintain compatablity between the new and old model, so all 300+ drivers don't have to be changed at once. For drivers that aren't converted yet, the netdevice_ops virt function list still resides in the net_device structure. For old protocols, the new net_device_ops are copied out to the old net_device pointers. After the transistion is completed the nag message can be changed to an WARN_ON, and the compatiablity code can be made configurable. Some function pointers aren't moved: * destructor can't be in net_device_ops because it may need to be referenced after the module is unloaded. * neighbor setup is manipulated in a couple of places that need special consideration * hard_start_xmit is in the fast path for transmit.

We found it on a couple of machines, including T61 notebook, nehalem machine, and another HPC NX6325 notebook. All the machines use FedoraCore 8 or FedoraCore 9. With kernel prior to 2.6.28-rc, system boot doesn't fail. I debug it and locate the root cause. Pls. see http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11899 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471517 As a matter of fact, there are 2 bugs. 1)root=/dev/sda1, system boot randomly fails. Mostly, boot for 5 times and fails once. nash has a bug. Some of its functions misuse return value 0. Sometimes, 0 means timeout and no uevent available. Sometimes, 0 means nash gets an uevent, but the uevent isn't block-related (for exmaple, usb). If by coincidence, kernel tells nash that uevents are available, but kernel also set timeout, nash might stops collecting other uevents in queue if current uevent isn't block-related. I work out a patch for nash to fix it. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18858 2) root=LABEL=/, system always can't boot. initrd init reports switchroot fails. Here is an executation branch of nash when booting: (1) nash read /sys/block/sda/dev; Assume major is 8 (on my desktop) (2) nash query /proc/devices with the major number; It found line "8 sd"; (3) nash use 'sd' to search its own probe table to find device (DISK) type for the device and add it to its own list; (4) Later on, it probes all devices in its list to get filesystem labels; scsi register "8 sd" always. When major is 259, nash fails to find the device(DISK) type. I enables CONFIG_DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT=y when compiling kernel, so 259 is picked up for device /dev/sda1, which causes nash to fail to find device (DISK) type. To fixing issue 2), I create a patch for nash and another patch for kernel. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18859 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18837 Below is the patch for kernel 2.6.28-rc4. It registers blkext, a new block device in proc/devices. With 2 patches on nash and 1 patch on kernel, I boot my machines for dozens of times without failure.

Which generetes a section mismatch warning. Previously, create_hash_tables(void) was a init function. So, removing __init from create_hash_tables(void) requires profile_nop to be non-init. This patch makes profile_nop function inline and fixes the following warning: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x6ebb6): Section mismatch in reference from the function create_hash_tables() to the function .init.text:profile_nop() The function create_hash_tables() references the function __init profile_nop(). This is often because create_hash_tables lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of profile_nop is wrong.

So we can't see this function printing. So, every time the last function to fill the read buffer, if overflowed, will be dropped. This also applies to set_ftrace_filter if set_ftrace_filter has more bytes than read buffer. fix: Through checking return value of seq_printf, if less than 0, we know this function doesn't be printed. Then we decrease position to force this function to be printed next time, in next read buffer. Another little fix is to show correct allocating pages count.

This patch addes a new kernel API to the ring buffers called: tracing_on() tracing_off() When tracing_off() is called, all ring buffers will not be able to record into their buffers. tracing_on() will enable the ring buffers again. These two act like an on/off switch. That is, there is no counting of the number of times tracing_off or tracing_on has been called. A new file is added to the debugfs/tracing directory called tracing_on This allows for userspace applications to also flip the switch. echo 0 > debugfs/tracing/tracing_on disables the tracing. echo 1 > /debugfs/tracing/tracing_on enables it. Note, this does not disable or enable any tracers. It only sets or clears a flag that needs to be set in order for the ring buffers to write to their buffers. It is a global flag, and affects all ring buffers. The buffers start out with tracing_on enabled. There are now three flags that control recording into the buffers: tracing_on: which affects all ring buffer tracers. buffer->record_disabled: which affects an allocated buffer, which may be set if an anomaly is detected, and tracing is disabled. cpu_buffer->record_disabled: which is set by tracing_stop() or if an anomaly is detected. tracing_start can not reenable this if an anomaly occurred. The userspace debugfs/tracing/tracing_enabled is implemented with tracing_stop() but the user space code can not enable it if the kernel called tracing_stop(). Userspace can enable the tracing_on even if the kernel disabled it. It is just a switch used to stop tracing if a condition was hit. tracing_on is not for protecting critical areas in the kernel nor is it for stopping tracing if an anomaly occurred. This is because userspace can reenable it at any time. Side effect: With this patch, I discovered a dead variable in ftrace.c called tracing_on. This patch removes it.

But currently, swiotlb uses dev->dma_mask in alloc_coherent() implicitly via address_needs_mapping(), but alloc_coherent is really supposed to use coherent_dma_mask. This bug could break drivers that uses smaller coherent_dma_mask than dma_mask (though the current code works for the majority that use the same mask for coherent_dma_mask and dma_mask).
