* [S390] Add missing compat system call wrappers.Michael Holzheu2009-01-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add wrapper functions for the following compat system calls: * readahead * sendfile64 * tkill * tgkill * keyctl This ensures that the high order bits of the parameter registers are correctly sign extended.

* [S390] etr/stp: fix possible deadlockHeiko Carstens2009-01-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | Precreate stop_machine threads in case the machine supports ETR/STP. Otherwise we might deadlock if a time sync operation gets scheduled and the creation of stop_machine threads would cause disk I/O. This is just the minimal fix. The real fix would be to only precreate stop_machine threads if ETR/STP is actually used. But that would be a rather large and complicated patch.

* [S390] cputime: fix lowcore initialization on cpu hotplugHeiko Carstens2009-01-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On (initial) cpu hotplug the lowcore values for user_timer and system_timer don't get initialized like they would get on each process schedule. On initial start of secondary cpus this leads to the situation where per thread user/system_timer values are larger than the corresponding contents of the lowcore. When later calculating time spent in user/system context the result can be negative. So for cpu hotplug we should manually initialize lowcore values.

* [S390] fix compat sigaltstack syscall table entryMichael Holzheu2009-01-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When 31 bit user space programs call sigaltstack on a 64 bit Linux OS, the system call returns -1 with errno=EFAULT. The 31 bit pointer passed to the system call is extended to 64 bit, but the high order bits are not set to zero. The kernel detects the invalid user space pointer and returns -EFAULT. To solve the problem, sys32_sigaltstack_wrapper() instead of sys32_sigaltstack() has to be called. The wrapper function sets the high order bits to zero.

* | mm: show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfsGary Hade2009-01-06
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfs Add /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/memoryY symlinks for all the memory sections located on nodeX. For example: /sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory135 -> ../../memory/memory135 indicates that memory section 135 resides on node1. Also revises documentation to cover this change as well as updating Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-memory to include descriptions of memory hotremove files 'phys_device', 'phys_index', and 'state' that were previously not described there. In addition to it always being a good policy to provide users with the maximum possible amount of physical location information for resources that can be hot-added and/or hot-removed, the following are some (but likely not all) of the user benefits provided by this change. Immediate: - Provides information needed to determine the specific node on which a defective DIMM is located. This will reduce system downtime when the node or defective DIMM is swapped out. - Prevents unintended onlining of a memory section that was previously offlined due to a defective DIMM. This could happen during node hot-add when the user or node hot-add assist script onlines _all_ offlined sections due to user or script inability to identify the specific memory sections located on the hot-added node. The consequences of reintroducing the defective memory could be ugly. - Provides information needed to vary the amount and distribution of memory on specific nodes for testing or debugging purposes. Future: - Will provide information needed to identify the memory sections that need to be offlined prior to physical removal of a specific node. Symlink creation during boot was tested on 2-node x86_64, 2-node ppc64, and 2-node ia64 systems. Symlink creation during physical memory hot-add tested on a 2-node x86_64 system.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The unit of the cputime accouting values that are stored per process is currently a microsecond. The CPU timer has a maximum granularity of 2**-12 microseconds. There is no benefit in storing the per process values in the lesser precision and there is the disadvantage that the backend has to do the rounding to microseconds. The better solution is to use the maximum granularity of the CPU timer as cputime unit. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
| * | | | [PATCH] idle cputime accountingMartin Schwidefsky2008-12-31

This is plain wrong, the architectures that support VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=y can do better: distinguish between the time spent doing nothing and the time spent by idle doing work. The first is accounted with account_idle_time and the second with account_system_time. The architectures that use the account_xxx_time interface directly and not the account_xxx_ticks interface now need to do the check for the idle process in their arch code. In particular to improve the system vs true idle time accounting the arch code needs to measure the true idle time instead of just testing for the idle process. To improve the tick based accounting as well we would need an architecture primitive that can tell us if the pt_regs of the interrupted context points to the magic instruction that halts the cpu. In addition idle time is no more added to the stime of the idle process. This field now contains the system time of the idle process as it should be. On systems without VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING this will always be zero as every tick that occurs while idle is running will be accounted as idle time. This patch contains the necessary common code changes to be able to distinguish idle system time and true idle time. The architectures with support for VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING need some changes to exploit this. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

On s390 the calls to account_user_time_scaled and account_system_time_scaled never have been added. In addition system time that is accounted as guest time to the user time of a process is accounted to the scaled system time instead of the scaled user time. To fix the bugs and to prevent future forgetfulness this patch merges account_system_time_scaled into account_system_time and account_user_time_scaled into account_user_time.

Move them to a central location. Twists: 1) Some archs (m32, parisc, s390) set possible_map to all 1, so we add a CONFIG_INIT_ALL_POSSIBLE for this rather than break them. 2) mips and sparc32 '#define cpu_possible_map phys_cpu_present_map'. Those archs simply have phys_cpu_present_map replaced everywhere. 3) Alpha defined cpu_possible_map to cpu_present_map; this is tricky so I just manipulate them both in sync. 4) IA64, cris and m32r have gratuitous 'extern cpumask_t cpu_possible_map' declarations.
