* [ARM] 5218/1: arm: improved futex supportMikael Pettersson2008-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Linux/ARM currently doesn't support robust or PI futexes. The problem is that the kernel wants to perform certain ops (cmpxchg, set, add, or, andn, xor) atomically on user-space addresses, and ARM's futex.h doesn't support that. This patch adds that support, but only for uniprocessor machines. For UP it's enough to disable preemption to ensure mutual exclusion with other software agents (futexes don't need to care about other hardware agents, fortunately). This patch is based on one posted by Khem Raj on 2007-08-01 <http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=118599407413016&w=2>. (That patch is included in the -RT kernel patches.) My changes since that version include: * corrected implementation of FUTEX_OP_ANDN (must complement oparg) * added missing memory clobber to futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() * removed spinlock because it's unnecessary for UP and insufficient for SMP, instead the code is restricted to UP and relies on the fact that pagefault_disable() also disables preemption * coding style cleanups Tested on ARMv5 XScales with the glibc-2.6 nptl test suite.

Since the check only validated that both driver and FW are pointing to the same place, it concluded that there is still work to be done.

* | [x86] Clean up MAXSMP Kconfig, and limit NR_CPUS to 512Linus Torvalds2008-08-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a regression that was indirectly caused by commit 1184dc2ffe2c8fb9afb766d870850f2c3165ef25 ("x86: modify Kconfig to allow up to 4096 cpus"). Allowing 4k CPU's is not practical at this time, because we still have a number of places that have several 'cpumask_t's on the stack, and a 4k-bit cpumask is 512 bytes of stack-space for each such variable. This literally caused functions like 'smp_call_function_mask' to have a 2.5kB stack frame, and several functions to have 2kB stackframes. With an 8kB stack total, smashing the stack was simply much too likely. At least bugzilla entry http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11342 was due to this. The earlier commit to not inline load_module() into sys_init_module() fixed the particular symptoms of this that Alan Brunelle saw in that bugzilla entry, but the huge stack waste by cpumask_t's was the more direct cause. Some day we'll have allocation helpers that allocate large CPU masks dynamically, but in the meantime we simply cannot allow cpumasks this large. Cc: Alan D.

If e820 reserved entries happen to be registered first in the resource tree [which v2.6.26 started doing], then the PCI code will reallocate that device's BAR to some other address - breaking timer IRQs and hanging the system. ( Normally hpet devices are hidden by the BIOS from the OS's PCI discovery via chipset magic. Sometimes the hpet is not a PCI device at all. ) Solve this fundamental fragility by making non-PCI platform drivers insert resources into the resource tree even if it overlaps the e820 reserved entry, to keep the resource manager from updating the BAR. Also do these checks for the ioapic and mmconfig addresses, and emit a warning if this happens.

Moreover, when the CPU in question is hotplugged again, obviously the latter has to be created before the former. At present, the right ordering is not enforced, because all of these operations are carried out by CPU hotplug notifiers which are not appropriately ordered with respect to each other. This leads to serious problems on systems with two or more multicore AMD CPUs, among other things during suspend and hibernation. Fix the problem by placing threshold bank CPU hotplug callbacks in mce_cpu_callback(), so that they are invoked at the right places, if defined. Additionally, use kobject_del() to remove the sysfs directory associated with the kobject created by kobject_create_and_add() in threshold_create_bank(), to prevent the kernel from crashing during CPU hotplug operations on systems with two or more multicore AMD CPUs.

Therefore relying on it to calculate a window to clip whacky TSC values doesn't work as it can drift around. So instead use [GTOD, GTOD+TICK_NSEC) as the window. b) __update_sched_clock() did (roughly speaking): delta = sched_clock() - scd->tick_raw; clock += delta; Which gives exponential growth, instead of linear. c) allows the sched_clock_cpu() value to warp the u64 without breaking. the results are more reliable sched_clock() deltas: before after sched_clock cpu_clock: 15750 51312 51488 cpu_clock: 59719 51052 50947 cpu_clock: 15879 51249 51061 cpu_clock: 1 50933 51198 cpu_clock: 1 50931 51039 cpu_clock: 1 51093 50981 cpu_clock: 1 51043 51040 cpu_clock: 1 50959 50938 cpu_clock: 1 50981 51011 cpu_clock: 1 51364 51212 cpu_clock: 1 51219 51273 cpu_clock: 1 51389 51048 cpu_clock: 1 51285 51611 cpu_clock: 1 50964 51137 cpu_clock: 1 50973 50968 cpu_clock: 1 50967 50972 cpu_clock: 1 58910 58485 cpu_clock: 1 51082 51025 cpu_clock: 1 50957 50958 cpu_clock: 1 50958 50957 cpu_clock: 1006128 51128 50971 cpu_clock: 1 51107 51155 cpu_clock: 1 51371 51081 cpu_clock: 1 51104 51365 cpu_clock: 1 51363 51309 cpu_clock: 1 51107 51160 cpu_clock: 1 51139 51100 cpu_clock: 1 51216 51136 cpu_clock: 1 51207 51215 cpu_clock: 1 51087 51263 cpu_clock: 1 51249 51177 cpu_clock: 1 51519 51412 cpu_clock: 1 51416 51255 cpu_clock: 1 51591 51594 cpu_clock: 1 50966 51374 cpu_clock: 1 50966 50966 cpu_clock: 1 51291 50948 cpu_clock: 1 50973 50867 cpu_clock: 1 50970 50970 cpu_clock: 998306 50970 50971 cpu_clock: 1 50971 50970 cpu_clock: 1 50970 50970 cpu_clock: 1 50971 50971 cpu_clock: 1 50970 50970 cpu_clock: 1 51351 50970 cpu_clock: 1 50970 51352 cpu_clock: 1 50971 50970 cpu_clock: 1 50970 50970 cpu_clock: 1 51321 50971 cpu_clock: 1 50974 51324 Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
