| * [IA64] Fix race in the accessed/dirty bit handlersChristoph Lameter2006-03-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A pte may be zapped by the swapper, exiting process, unmapping or page migration while the accessed or dirty bit handers are about to run. In that case the accessed bit or dirty is set on an zeroed pte which leads the VM to conclude that this is a swap pte. This may lead to - Messages from the vm like swap_free: Bad swap file entry 4000000000000000 - Processes being aborted swap_dup: Bad swap file entry 4000000000000000 VM: killing process .... Page migration is particular suitable for the creation of this race since it needs to remove and restore page table entries. The fix here is to check for the present bit and simply not update the pte if the page is not present anymore. If the page is not present then the fault handler should run next which will take care of the problem by bringing the page back and then mark the page dirty or move it onto the active list.

* | [PATCH] s390: Increase spinlock retry code performanceChristian Ehrhardt2006-03-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the code tries up to spin_retry times to grab a lock using the cs instruction. The cs instruction has exclusive access to a memory region and therefore invalidates the appropiate cache line of all other cpus. If there is contention on a lock this leads to cache line trashing. This can be avoided if we first check wether a cs instruction is likely to succeed before the instruction gets actually executed.

In other words, the noerror behaviour would apply to the next system call where we had to reschedule or deliver a signal, which is not necessarily the current system call. * 32-bit wasn't doing the call to ptrace_notify in the syscall exit path when the _TIF_SINGLESTEP bit was set. * _TIF_RESTOREALL was in both _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK and _TIF_PERSYSCALL_MASK, which is odd since _TIF_RESTOREALL is only set by system calls. I took it out of _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK. * On 64-bit, _TIF_RESTOREALL wasn't causing the non-volatile registers to be restored (unless perhaps a signal was delivered or the syscall was traced or single-stepped). Thus the non-volatile registers weren't restored on exit from a signal handler. We probably got away with it mostly because signal handlers written in C wouldn't alter the non-volatile registers. * On 32-bit I simplified the code and made it more like 64-bit by making the syscall exit path jump to ret_from_except to handle preemption and signal delivery. * 32-bit was calling do_signal unnecessarily when _TIF_RESTOREALL was set - but I think because of that 32-bit was actually restoring the non-volatile registers on exit from a signal handler. * I changed the order of enabling interrupts and saving the non-volatile registers before calling do_syscall_trace_leave; now we enable interrupts first.

On logically-partitioned machines the first element of the reg property in the memory node is defined to be the "RMO" region, i.e. the memory that the processor can access in real mode. On other machines the first element has no special meaning, so only take it to be the RMO region on LPAR machines.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The variable `timebase' used to transfer the current timebase value from one cpu to the other in smp_core99_give/take_timebase was only an unsigned long, i.e. 32 bits on 32-bit machines. It needs to be 64 bits. This makes it a u64, and fixes the issue reported by Kyle Moffett, that the two cpus see wildly different values for the time of day.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On 32-bit, the exception prolog for the program check exception doesn't enable interrupts early on. If it is an illegal instruction exception, we read the instruction in order to emulate certain instructions, and the get_user of the instruction triggers a WARN_ON since interrupts are still disabled. This adds a local_irq_enable() to enable interrupts before reading the instruction. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* | | [PATCH] i386: port ATI timer fix from x86_64 to i386 IIAndi Kleen2006-03-08
| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ATI chipsets tend to generate double timer interrupts for the local APIC timer when both the 8254 and the IO-APIC timer pins are enabled. This is because they route it to both and the result is anded together and the CPU ends up processing it twice. This patch changes check_timer to disable the 8254 routing for interrupt 0. I think it would be safe on all chipsets actually (i tested it on a couple and it worked everywhere) and Windows seems to do it in a similar way, but to be conservative this patch only enables this mode on ATI (and adds options to enable/disable too) Ported over from a similar x86-64 change. I reused the ACPI earlyquirk infrastructure for the ATI bridge check, but tweaked it a bit to work even without ACPI. Inspired by a patch from Chuck Ebbert, but redone.

| * [IA64] Delete a redundant instruction in unaligned_accessZhang, Yanmin2006-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | unaligned_access does fetch cr.ipsr, then calls dispatch_unaligned_handler, but dispatch_unaligned_handler fetches cr.ipsr again, so delete the first one. Signed-off-by: Zhang Yanmin <yanmin.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
* | [PATCH] Add mm->task_size and fix powerpc vdsoBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-02-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds mm->task_size to keep track of the task size of a given mm and uses that to fix the powerpc vdso so that it uses the mm task size to decide what pages to fault in instead of the current thread flags (which broke when ptracing). (akpm: I expect that mm_struct.task_size will become the way in which we finally sort out the confusion between 32-bit processes and 32-bit mm's. It may need tweaks, but at this stage this patch is powerpc-only.)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This driver loops over 'num_online_cpus', but it doesn't account for holes in the online map created by offlined cpus, and assumes that the cpu numbers stay linear.
