* x86: Fix sched_clock_cpu for systems with unsynchronized TSCDimitri Sivanich2010-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 14be1f7454ea96ee614467a49cf018a1a383b189 upstream. On UV systems, the TSC is not synchronized across blades. The sched_clock_cpu() function is returning values that can go backwards (I've seen as much as 8 seconds) when switching between cpus. As each cpu comes up, early_init_intel() will currently set the sched_clock_stable flag true. When mark_tsc_unstable() runs, it clears the flag, but this only occurs once (the first time a cpu comes up whose TSC is not synchronized with cpu 0). After this, early_init_intel() will set the flag again as the next cpu comes up. Only set sched_clock_stable if tsc has not been marked unstable.

* sparc64: Properly truncate pt_regs framepointer in perf callback.David S. Miller2010-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit 9e8307ecaf9f8c8b5b3b22145021204c4e73114a ] For 32-bit processes, we save the full 64-bits of the regs in pt_regs. But unlike when the userspace actually does load and store instructions, the top 32-bits don't get automatically truncated by the cpu in kernel mode (because the kernel doesn't execute with PSTATE_AM address masking enabled). So we have to do it by hand. Reported-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* x86, amd: Restrict usage of c1e_idle()Andreas Herrmann2010-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 035a02c1e1de31888e8b6adac0ff667971ac04db upstream. Currently c1e_idle returns true for all CPUs greater than or equal to family 0xf model 0x40. This covers too many CPUs. Meanwhile a respective erratum for the underlying problem was filed (#400). This patch adds the logic to check whether erratum #400 applies to a given CPU. Especially for CPUs where SMI/HW triggered C1e is not supported, c1e_idle() doesn't need to be used. We can check this by looking at the respective OSVW bit for erratum #400.

* x86: Fix placement of FIX_OHCI1394_BASEJan Beulich2010-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit ff30a0543e9a6cd732582063e7cae951cdb7acf2 upstream. Ever for 32-bit with sufficiently high NR_CPUS, and starting with commit 789d03f584484af85dbdc64935270c8e45f36ef7 also for 64-bit, the statically allocated early fixmap page tables were not covering FIX_OHCI1394_BASE, leading to a boot time crash when "ohci1394_dma=early" was used. Despite this entry not being a permanently used one, it needs to be moved into the permanent range since it has to be close to FIX_DBGP_BASE and FIX_EARLYCON_MEM_BASE.

* hw-breakpoints: Remove stub unthrottle callbackFrederic Weisbecker2010-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 1e259e0a9982078896f3404240096cbea01daca4 upstream. We support event unthrottling in breakpoint events. It means that if we have more than sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate/HZ, perf will throttle, ignoring subsequent events until the next tick. So if ptrace exceeds this max rate, it will omit events, which breaks the ptrace determinism that is supposed to report every triggered breakpoints. This is likely to happen if we set sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate to 1. This patch removes support for unthrottling in breakpoint events to break throttling and restore ptrace determinism.

* x86/stacktrace: Don't dereference bad frame pointersFrederic Weisbecker2010-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 29044ad1509ecc229f1d5a31aeed7a8dc61a71c4 upstream. Callers of a stacktrace might pass bad frame pointers. Those are usually checked for safety in stack walking helpers before any dereferencing, but this is not the case when we need to go through one more frame pointer that backlinks the irq stack to the previous one, as we don't have any reliable address boudaries to compare this frame pointer against. This raises crashes when we record callchains for ftrace events with perf because we don't use the right helpers to capture registers there. We get wrong frame pointers as we call task_pt_regs() even on kernel threads, which is a wrong thing as it gives us the initial state of any kernel threads freshly created. This is even not what we want for user tasks. What we want is a hot snapshot of registers when the ftrace event triggers, not the state before a task entered the kernel. This requires more thoughts to do it correctly though. So first put a guardian to ensure the given frame pointer can be dereferenced to avoid crashes. We'll think about how to fix the callers in a subsequent patch. Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: H.

* x86_64, cpa: Don't work hard in preserving kernel 2M mappings when using 4K ↵Suresh Siddha2010-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | already commit 281ff33b7c1b1ba2a5f9b03425e5f692a94913fa upstream. We currently enforce the !RW mapping for the kernel mapping that maps holes between different text, rodata and data sections. However, kernel identity mappings will have different RWX permissions to the pages mapping to text and to the pages padding (which are freed) the text, rodata sections. Hence kernel identity mappings will be broken to smaller pages. For 64-bit, kernel text and kernel identity mappings are different, so we can enable protection checks that come with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA, as well as retain 2MB large page mappings for kernel text. Konrad reported a boot failure with the Linux Xen paravirt guest because of this. In this paravirt guest case, the kernel text mapping and the kernel identity mapping share the same page-table pages. Thus forcing the !RW mapping for some of the kernel mappings also cause the kernel identity mappings to be read-only resulting in the boot failure. Linux Xen paravirt guest also uses 4k mappings and don't use 2M mapping. Fix this issue and retain large page performance advantage for native kernels by not working hard and not enforcing !RW for the kernel text mapping, if the current mapping is already using small page mapping.

* ARM: Fix decompressor's kernel size estimation for ROM=yRussell King2010-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 98e12b5a6e05413420a7e3b3eca7fbfc2ff41b6d upstream. Commit 2552fc2 changed the way the decompressor decides if it is safe to decompress the kernel directly to its final location. Unfortunately, it took the top of the compressed data as being the stack pointer, which it is for ROM=n cases. However, for ROM=y, the stack pointer is not relevant, and results in the wrong answer. Fix this by explicitly storing the end of the biggybacked data in the decompressor, and use that to calculate the compressed image size.

* x86, mm: Allow highmem user page tables to be disabled at boot timeIan Campbell2010-03-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 14315592009c17035cac81f4954d5a1f4d71e489 upstream. Distros generally (I looked at Debian, RHEL5 and SLES11) seem to enable CONFIG_HIGHPTE for any x86 configuration which has highmem enabled. This means that the overhead applies even to machines which have a fairly modest amount of high memory and which therefore do not really benefit from allocating PTEs in high memory but still pay the price of the additional mapping operations. Running kernbench on a 4G box I found that with CONFIG_HIGHPTE=y but no actual highptes being allocated there was a reduction in system time used from 59.737s to 55.9s. With CONFIG_HIGHPTE=y and highmem PTEs being allocated: Average Optimal load -j 4 Run (std deviation): Elapsed Time 175.396 (0.238914) User Time 515.983 (5.85019) System Time 59.737 (1.26727) Percent CPU 263.8 (71.6796) Context Switches 39989.7 (4672.64) Sleeps 42617.7 (246.307) With CONFIG_HIGHPTE=y but with no highmem PTEs being allocated: Average Optimal load -j 4 Run (std deviation): Elapsed Time 174.278 (0.831968) User Time 515.659 (6.07012) System Time 55.9 (1.07799) Percent CPU 263.8 (71.266) Context Switches 39929.6 (4485.13) Sleeps 42583.7 (373.039) This patch allows the user to control the allocation of PTEs in highmem from the command line ("userpte=nohigh") but retains the status-quo as the default. It is possible that some simple heuristic could be developed which allows auto-tuning of this option however I don't have a sufficiently large machine available to me to perform any particularly meaningful experiments. We could probably handwave up an argument for a threshold at 16G of total RAM. Assuming 768M of lowmem we have 196608 potential lowmem PTE pages. Each page can map 2M of RAM in a PAE-enabled configuration, meaning a maximum of 384G of RAM could potentially be mapped using lowmem PTEs. Even allowing generous factor of 10 to account for other required lowmem allocations, generous slop to account for page sharing (which reduces the total amount of RAM mappable by a given number of PT pages) and other innacuracies in the estimations it would seem that even a 32G machine would not have a particularly pressing need for highmem PTEs. I think 32G could be considered to be at the upper bound of what might be sensible on a 32 bit machine (although I think in practice 64G is still supported). It's seems questionable if HIGHPTE is even a win for any amount of RAM you would sensibly run a 32 bit kernel on rather than going 64 bit.

* x86, xen: Disable highmem PTE allocation even when CONFIG_HIGHPTE=yIan Campbell2010-03-15

There's a path in the pagefault code where the kernel deliberately breaks its own locking rules by kmapping a high pte page without holding the pagetable lock (in at least page_check_address). This breaks Xen's ability to track the pinned/unpinned state of the page. There does not appear to be a viable workaround for this behaviour so simply disable HIGHPTE for all Xen guests.

| | | | | | | | | | | | commit cfc9c0b450176a077205ef39092f0dc1a04e020a upstream. During switching virtual counters there is access to perfctr msrs. If the counter is not available this fails due to an invalid address. This patch fixes this. Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 89baaaa98a10cad5cc8516c7208b02d9fc711890 upstream. Standard AMD systems have the same number of nodes as there are northbridge devices. However, there may kernel configurations (especially for 32 bit) or system setups exist, where the node number is different or it can not be detected properly. Thus the check is not reliable and may fail though IBS setup was fine. For this reason it is better to remove the check.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 68dc819ce829f7e7977a56524e710473bdb55115 upstream. Multiple virtual counters share one physical counter. The reservation of virtual counters fails due to duplicate allocation of the same counter. The counters are already reserved. Thus, virtual counter reservation may removed at all.

* x86/PCI: Prevent mmconfig memory corruptionThomas Gleixner2010-03-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit bb8d41330ce27edb91adb6922d3f8e1a8923f727 upstream. commit ff097ddd4 (x86/PCI: MMCONFIG: manage pci_mmcfg_region as a list, not a table) introduced a nasty memory corruption when pci_mmcfg_list is empty. pci_mmcfg_check_end_bus_number() dereferences pci_mmcfg_list.prev even when the list is empty. The following write hits some variable near to pci_mmcfg_list. Further down a similar problem exists, where cfg->list.next is dereferenced unconditionally and a comparison with some variable near to pci_mmcfg_list happens. Add a check for the last element into the for_each_entry() loop and remove all the other crappy logic which is just a leftover of the old array based code which was replaced by the list conversion.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the user enables breakpoints through dr7, he can choose between "local" or "global" enable bits but given how linux is implemented, both have the same effect. That said we don't keep track how the user enabled the breakpoints so when the user requests the dr7 value, we only translate the "enabled" status using the global enabled bits. It means that if the user enabled a breakpoint using the local enabled bit, reading back dr7 will set the global bit and clear the local one. Apps like Wine expect a full dr7 POKEUSER/PEEKUSER match for emulated softwares that implement old reverse engineering protection schemes. We fix that by keeping track of the whole dr7 value given by the user in the thread structure to drop this bug. We'll think about something more proper later. This fixes a 2.6.32 - 2.6.33-x ptrace regression.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before we had a generic breakpoint API, ptrace was accepting breakpoints on NULL address in x86. The new API refuse them, without given strong reasons. We need to follow the previous behaviour as some userspace apps like Wine need such NULL breakpoints to ensure old emulated software protections are still working.

This can prevent systems booting properly. There is no clear hard-configurable default for this; the desired default depends on the nature of the userspace which is going to be booted. So, provide a way for the alignment fault handler to be configured via the kernel command line. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
