* [PATCH] kprobes: fix broken fault handling for x86_64Prasanna 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.

* [PATCH] kprobe handler: discard user space trapbibo,mao2006-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently kprobe handler traps only happen in kernel space, so function kprobe_exceptions_notify should skip traps which happen in user space.

* [PATCH] kretprobe instance recycled by parent processbibo mao2006-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When kretprobe probes the schedule() function, if the probed process exits then schedule() will never return, so some kretprobe instances will never be recycled. In this patch the parent process will recycle retprobe instances of the probed function and there will be no memory leak of kretprobe instances.

* [PATCH] x86_64: timer interrupt lockup due to pending interruptVivek Goyal2006-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o check_timer() routine fails while second kernel is booting after a crash on an opetron box. Problem happens because timer vector (0x31) seems to be locked. o After a system crash, it is not safe to service interrupts any more, hence interrupts are disabled. This leads to pending interrupts at LAPIC. LAPIC sends these interrupts to the CPU during early boot of second kernel. Other pending interrupts are discarded saying unexpected trap but timer interrupt is serviced and CPU does not issue an LAPIC EOI because it think this interrupt came from i8259 and sends ack to 8259. This leads to vector 0x31 locking as LAPIC does not clear respective ISR and keeps on waiting for EOI. o This patch issues extra EOI for the pending interrupts who have ISR set. o Though today only timer seems to be the special case because in early boot it thinks interrupts are coming from i8259 and uses mask_and_ack_8259A() as ack handler and does not issue LAPIC EOI. But probably doing it in generic manner for all vectors makes sense.

* [PATCH] x86_64: Basic reorder infrastructureArjan van de Ven2006-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch puts the infrastructure in place to allow for a reordering of functions based inside the vmlinux. The general idea is that it is possible to put all "common" functions into the first 2Mb of the code, so that they are covered by one TLB entry. This as opposed to the current situation where a typical vmlinux covers about 3.5Mb (on x86-64) and thus 2 TLB entries. This is done by enabling the -ffunction-sections flag in gcc, which puts each function in its own ELF section, so that the linker can then order them in a way defined by the linker script. As per previous discussions, Linus said he wanted a "static" list for this, eg a list provided by the kernel tarbal, so that most people have the same ordering at least. A script is provided to create this list based on readprofile(1) output. The included list is provisional, and entirely biased on my own testbox and me running a few kernel compiles and some other things. I think that to get to a better list we need to invite people to submit their own profiles, and somehow add those all up and base the final list on that. I'm willing to do that effort if this is ends up being the prefered approach. Such an effort probably needs to be repeated like once a year or so to adopt to the changing nature of the kernel. Made it a CONFIG with default n because it increases link times dramatically. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* [PATCH] x86_64: Patch to make the head.S-must-be-first-in-vmlinux order explicitArjan van de Ven2006-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch puts the code from head.S in a special .bootstrap.text section. I'm working on a patch to reorder the functions in the kernel (I'll post that later), but for x86-64 at least the kernel bootstrap requires that the head.S functions are on the very first page/pages of the kernel text. This is understandable since the bootstrap is complex enough already and not a problem at all, it just means they aren't allowed to be reordered. This patch puts these special functions into a separate section to document this, and to guarantee this in the light of possibly reordering the rest later. (So this patch doesn't fix a bug per se, but makes things more robust by making the order of these functions explicit) Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* [PATCH] x86_64: to use lapic ids instead of initial apic idsRavikiran G Thirumalai2006-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | phys_proc_id[] on AMD boxes is right now populated with the initial apic id, obtained by the cpuid instruction. But, the initial apic id need not be the local apic id on clustered APIC systems (see comment at x86_64/kernel/genapic_cluster.c, line 110). On vSMPowered with AMD CPUs the cpu_to_node will turn out to be incorrect (as apicid_to_node[] is indexed by the initial apic id rather than the local apic id). On vSMPowered boxes with Intel CPUs this is working correctly as phys_proc_id[] is initialized correctly in detect_ht(). This fixes AMD boot path according to specification, to use the correct routines for local apic id and socket ids. We use hard_smp_processor_id() to read the local apic id, and phys_pkg_id() to determine socket id for phys_proc_id[] Patch tested on Tyan multicore boxes as well as vSMPowered boxes.

* [PATCH] x86_64: actively synchronize vmalloc area when registering certain ↵Jan Beulich2006-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | callbacks While the modular aspect of the respective i386 patch doesn't apply to x86-64 (as the top level page directory entry is shared between modules and the base kernel), handlers registered with register_die_notifier() are still under similar constraints for touching ioremap()ed or vmalloc()ed memory. The likelihood of this problem becoming visible is of course significantly lower, as the assigned virtual addresses would have to cross a 2**39 byte boundary. This is because the callback gets invoked (a) in the page fault path before the top level page table propagation gets carried out (hence a fault to propagate the top level page table entry/entries mapping to module's code/data would nest infinitly) and (b) in the NMI path, where nested faults must absolutely not happen, since otherwise the IRET from the nested fault re-enables NMIs, potentially resulting in nested NMI occurences.
