* | [PATCH] Notifier chain update: API changesAlan Stern2006-03-27
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel's implementation of notifier chains is unsafe. There is no protection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the chain is in use. The issues were discussed in this thread: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113018709002036&w=2 We noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage classes: "Blocking" chains are always called from a process context and the callout routines are allowed to sleep; "Atomic" chains can be called from an atomic context and the callout routines are not allowed to sleep. We decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API. Therefore this set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking notifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for "raw" notifiers (which is really just the old API under a new name). New kinds of data structures are used for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for registration, unregistration, and calling a chain. The three APIs are explained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in kernel/sys.c. With atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain links will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by entries being added or removed. For raw chains the implementation provides no guarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections. (The idea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and blocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to handle these things in their own way.) There are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with. For atomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in a process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem. Also, a callout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister entries on its own chain. (This did happen in a couple of places and the code had to be changed to avoid it.) Since atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use spinlocks for synchronization. Instead we use RCU. The overhead falls almost entirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much less frequent that calling a chain. Here is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications. None of them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder. ATOMIC CHAINS ------------- arch/i386/kernel/traps.c: i386die_chain arch/ia64/kernel/traps.c: ia64die_chain arch/powerpc/kernel/traps.c: powerpc_die_chain arch/sparc64/kernel/traps.c: sparc64die_chain arch/x86_64/kernel/traps.c: die_chain drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c: xaction_notifier_list kernel/panic.c: panic_notifier_list kernel/profile.c: task_free_notifier net/bluetooth/hci_core.c: hci_notifier net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c: ip_conntrack_chain net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c: ip_conntrack_expect_chain net/ipv6/addrconf.c: inet6addr_chain net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c: nf_conntrack_chain net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c: nf_conntrack_expect_chain net/netlink/af_netlink.c: netlink_chain BLOCKING CHAINS --------------- arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/reconfig.c: pSeries_reconfig_chain arch/s390/kernel/process.c: idle_chain arch/x86_64/kernel/process.c idle_notifier drivers/base/memory.c: memory_chain drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c cpufreq_policy_notifier_list drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c cpufreq_transition_notifier_list drivers/macintosh/adb.c: adb_client_list drivers/macintosh/via-pmu.c sleep_notifier_list drivers/macintosh/via-pmu68k.c sleep_notifier_list drivers/macintosh/windfarm_core.c wf_client_list drivers/usb/core/notify.c usb_notifier_list drivers/video/fbmem.c fb_notifier_list kernel/cpu.c cpu_chain kernel/module.c module_notify_list kernel/profile.c munmap_notifier kernel/profile.c task_exit_notifier kernel/sys.c reboot_notifier_list net/core/dev.c netdev_chain net/decnet/dn_dev.c: dnaddr_chain net/ipv4/devinet.c: inetaddr_chain It's possible that some of these classifications are wrong. If they are, please let us know or submit a patch to fix them. Note that any chain that gets called very frequently should be atomic, because the rwsem read-locking used for blocking chains is very likely to incur cache misses on SMP systems. (However, if the chain's callout routines may sleep then the chain cannot be atomic.)

* [PATCH] kprobes: fix broken fault handling for sparc64Prasanna S Panchamukhi2006-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Provide proper kprobes fault handling, if a user-specified pre/post handlers tries to access user address space, through copy_from_user(), get_user() etc. The user-specified fault handler gets called only if the fault occurs while executing user-specified handlers. In such a case user-specified handler is allowed to fix it first, later if the user-specifed fault handler does not fix it, we try to fix it by calling fix_exception(). The user-specified handler will not be called if the fault happens when single stepping the original instruction, instead we reset the current probe and allow the system page fault handler to fix it up. I could not test this patch for sparc64. Signed-off-by: Prasanna S Panchamukhi <prasanna@in.ibm.com> Cc: "David S.

* [PATCH] more for_each_cpu() conversionsAndrew Morton2006-03-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we stop allocating percpu memory for not-possible CPUs we must not touch the percpu data for not-possible CPUs at all. The correct way of doing this is to test cpu_possible() or to use for_each_cpu(). This patch is a kernel-wide sweep of all instances of NR_CPUS. I found very few instances of this bug, if any. But the patch converts lots of open-coded test to use the preferred helper macros.

Most archs (everything except ia64 and powerpc) used the same implementation of is_aligned_hugepage_range(). On powerpc, which implements its own prepare_hugepage_range(), the custom version was never used. In addition, "is_aligned_hugepage_range()" was a bad name, because it suggests it returns true iff the given range is a good hugepage range, whereas in fact it returns 0-or-error (so the sense is reversed). This patch cleans up by abolishing is_aligned_hugepage_range(). Instead prepare_hugepage_range() is defined directly. Most archs use the default version, which simply checks the given region is aligned to the size of a hugepage. ia64 and powerpc define custom versions. The ia64 one simply checks that the range is in the correct address space region in addition to being suitably aligned. The powerpc version (just as previously) checks for suitable addresses, and if necessary performs low-level MMU frobbing to set up new areas for use by hugepages.

* [SPARC64]: Top-down address space allocation for 32-bit tasks.David S. Miller2006-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently allocations are very constrained for 32-bit processes. It grows down-up from 0x70000000 to 0xf0000000 which gives about 2GB of stack + dynamic mmap() space. So support the top-down method, and we need to override the generic helper function in order to deal with D-cache coloring. With these changes I was able to squeeze out a mmap() just over 3.6GB in size in a 32-bit process. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [SPARC64]: Fix and re-enable dynamic TSB sizing.David S. Miller2006-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is good for up to %50 performance improvement of some test cases. The problem has been the race conditions, and hopefully I've plugged them all up here. 1) There was a serious race in switch_mm() wrt. lazy TLB switching to and from kernel threads. We could erroneously skip a tsb_context_switch() and thus use a stale TSB across a TSB grow event. There is a big comment now in that function describing exactly how it can happen. 2) All code paths that do something with the TSB need to be guarded with the mm->context.lock spinlock. This makes page table flushing paths properly synchronize with both TSB growing and TLB context changes. 3) TSB growing events are moved to the end of successful fault processing. Previously it was in update_mmu_cache() but that is deadlock prone. At the end of do_sparc64_fault() we hold no spinlocks that could deadlock the TSB grow sequence. We also have dropped the address space semaphore. While we're here, add prefetching to the copy_tsb() routine and put it in assembler into the tsb.S file. This piece of code is quite time critical. There are some small negative side effects to this code which can be improved upon. In particular we grab the mm->context.lock even for the tsb insert done by update_mmu_cache() now and that's a bit excessive. We can get rid of that locking, and the same lock taking in flush_tsb_user(), by disabling PSTATE_IE around the whole operation including the capturing of the tsb pointer and tsb_nentries value. That would work because anyone growing the TSB won't free up the old TSB until all cpus respond to the TSB change cross call. I'm not quite so confident in that optimization to put it in right now, but eventually we might be able to and the description is here for reference. This code seems very solid now. It passes several parallel GCC bootstrap builds, and our favorite "nut cruncher" stress test which is a full "make -j8192" build of a "make allmodconfig" kernel. That puts about 256 processes on each cpu's run queue, makes lots of process cpu migrations occur, causes lots of page table and TLB flushing activity, incurs many context version number changes, and it swaps the machine real far out to disk even though there is 16GB of ram on this test system. :-) Signed-off-by: David S.

* [SPARC64]: Fix 32-bit truncation which broke sparsemem.David S. Miller2006-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The page->flags manipulations done by the D-cache dirty state tracking was broken because the constants were not marked with "UL" to make them 64-bit, which means we were clobbering the upper 32-bits of page->flags all the time. This doesn't jive well with sparsemem which stores the section and indexing information in the top 32-bits of page->flags. This is yet another sparc64 bug which has been with us forever. While we're here, tidy up some things in bootmem_init() and paginig_init(): 1) Pass min_low_pfn to init_bootmem_node(), it's identical to (phys_base >> PAGE_SHIFT) but we should use consistent with the variable names we print in CONFIG_BOOTMEM_DEBUG 2) max_mapnr, although no longer used, was being set inaccurately, we shouldn't subtract pfn_base any more. 3) All the games with phys_base in the zones_*[] arrays we pass to free_area_init_node() are no longer necessary.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Don't try to avoid putting non-base page sized entries into the user TSB. It actually costs us more to check this than it helps. Eventually we'll have a multiple TSB scheme for user processes. Once a process starts using larger pages, we'll allocate and use such a TSB. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [SPARC64]: More SUN4V cpu mondo bug fixing.David S. Miller2006-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This cpu mondo sending interface isn't all that easy to use correctly... We were clearing out the wrong bits from the "mask" after getting something other than EOK from the hypervisor. It turns out the hypervisor can just be resent the same cpu_list[] array, with the 0xffff "done" entries still in there, and it will do the right thing. So don't update or try to rebuild the cpu_list[] array to condense it. This requires the "forward_progress" check to be done slightly differently, but this new scheme is less bug prone than what we were doing before. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [SPARC64]: Do not allow mapping pages within 4GB of 64-bit VA hole.David S. Miller2006-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | The UltraSPARC T1 manual recommends this because the chip could instruction prefetch into the VA hole, and this would also make decoding certain kinds of memory access traps more difficult (because the chip sign extends certain pieces of trap state).

* [SPARC64]: Fix bugs in SUN4V cpu mondo dispatch.David S. Miller2006-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There were several bugs in the SUN4V cpu mondo dispatch code. In fact, if we ever got a EWOULDBLOCK or other error from the hypervisor call, we'd potentially send a cpu mondo multiple times to the same cpu and even worse we could loop until the timeout resending the same mondo over and over to such cpus. So let's bulletproof this thing as follows: 1) Implement cpu_mondo_send() and cpu_state() hypervisor calls in arch/sparc64/kernel/entry.S, add prototypes to asm/hypervisor.h 2) Don't build and update the cpulist using inline functions, this was causing the cpu mask to not get updated in the caller. 3) Disable interrupts during the entire mondo send, otherwise our cpu list and/or mondo block could get overwritten if we take an interrupt and do a cpu mondo send on the current cpu. 4) Check for all possible error return types from the cpu_mondo_send() hypervisor call. In particular: HV_EOK) Our work is done, all cpus have received the mondo. HV_CPUERROR) One or more of the cpus in the cpu list we passed to the hypervisor are in error state. Use cpu_state() calls over the entries in the cpu list to see which ones. Record them in "error_mask" and report this after we are done sending the mondo to cpus which are not in error state. HV_EWOULDBLOCK) We need to keep trying. Any other error we consider fatal, we report the event and exit immediately. 5) We only timeout if forward progress is not made. Forward progress is defined as having at least one cpu get the mondo successfully in a given cpu_mondo_send() call. Otherwise we bump a counter and delay a little. If the counter hits a limit, we signal an error and report the event. Also, smp_call_function_mask() error handling reports the number of cpus incorrectly. Signed-off-by: David S.
