* [PATCH] s390: next_timer_interrupt overflow in stop_hz_timerMartin Schwidefsky2006-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 32 bit unsigned substraction (next - jiffies) in stop_hz_timer can overflow if jiffies gets advanced between next_timer_interrupt and the read under the xtime lock. The cast to a u64 then results in a large value which causes the cpu to wait too long. Fix this by casting next and jiffies independently to u64 before subtracting them.

* [PATCH] kprobes: bad manipulation of 2 byte opcode on x86_64Satoshi Oshima2006-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: If we put a probe onto a callq instruction and the probe is executed, kernel panic of Bad RIP value occurs. Root cause: If resume_execution() found 0xff at first byte of p->ainsn.insn, it must check the _second_ byte. But current resume_execution check _first_ byte again. I changed it checks second byte of p->ainsn.insn. Kprobes on i386 don't have this problem, because the implementation is a little bit different from x86_64.

* [PATCH] i386 kdump boot cpu physical apicid fixVivek Goyal2006-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o Kdump second kernel boot fails after a system crash if second kernel is UP and acpi=off and if crash occurred on a non-boot cpu. o Issue here is that MP tables report boot cpu lapic id as 0 but second kernel is booting on a different processor and MP table data is stale in this context. Hence apic_id_registered() check fails in setup_local_APIC() when called from APIC_init_uniprocessor(). o Problem is not seen if ACPI is enabled as in that case boot_cpu_physical_apicid is read from the LAPIC. o Problem is not seen with SMP kernels as well because in this case also boot_cpu_physical_apicid is read from LAPIC. (smp_boot_cpus()). o The problem is fixed by reading boot_cpu_physical_apicid from LAPIC if it is a UP kernel and CRASH_DUMP is enabled.

However, an undefined instruction is used when attempting to restore a non-existent "auxiliary control register". This leads to a crash on S3C2412, which has an ARM926 core instead of an ARM920. At suspend time, the following fragment runs: mrc p15, 0, r7, c2, c0, 0 @ translation table base address mrc p15, 0, r8, c2, c0, 0 @ auxiliary control register mrc p15, 0, r9, c1, c0, 0 @ control register and at resume time, the following fragment runs: mcr p15, 0, r7, c2, c0, 0 @ translation table base mcr p15, 0, r8, c1, c1, 0 @ auxilliary control ... mcr p15, 0, r9, c1, c0, 0 @ turn on MMU, etc There are several problems with these fragments: 1. The ARM920 and ARM926 cores don't have any "auxiliary control register", at least not according to the ARM920 and ARM926 TRM's. 2. The 2nd line of suspend erroneously saves the c2 register again. 3. This saved c2 value is restored using an undefined instruction. For some reason this does not crash on ARM920, but does crash on ARM926. The following patch fixes all these problems.

| * | [PATCH] Fix pSeries identification in prom_init.cBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-05-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The OF trampoline code prom_init.c still needs to identify IBM pSeries (PAPR) machines in order to run some platform specific code on them like instanciating the TCE tables. The code doing that detection was changed recently in 2.6.17 early stages but was done slightly incorrectly. It should be testing for an exact match of "chrp" and it currently tests for anything that begins with "chrp". That means it will incorrectly match with platforms using Maple-like device-trees and have open firmware. This fixes it by using strcmp instead of strncmp to match what the actual platform detection code does.

The bootmap overlaps the EBDA region. EBDA region is not historically reserved in the e820 mapping. When the bootmap is freed it marks the EBDA region as usable. If you notice in setup.c there is already code to work around the EBDA in reserve_ebda_region(), this check however occurs after the bootmap is allocated and doesn't prevent the bootmap from using this range.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Playing with NMI watchdog on x86_64, I discovered that it didn't do what I expected. It always panic-ed, even when it didn't happen from interrupt context. This patch solves that problem for me. Also, in this case, do_exit() will be called with interrupts disabled, I believe. Would it be wise to also call local_irq_enable() after nmi_exit()? [Yes I added it -AK] Currently, on x86_64, any NMI watchdog timeout will cause a panic because the irq count will always be set to be in an interrupt when do_exit() is called from die_nmi(). If we add nmi_exit() to the die_nmi() call (since the nmi will never exit "normally") it seems to solve this problem. The following small program can be used to trigger the NMI watchdog to reproduce this: main () { iopl(3); for (;;) asm("cli"); } Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* | [PATCH] x86_64: avoid IRQ0 ioapic pin collisionKimball Murray2006-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch addresses a problem with ACPI SCI interrupt entry, which gets re-used, and the IRQ is assigned to another unrelated device. The patch corrects the code such that SCI IRQ is skipped and duplicate entry is avoided. Second issue came up with VIA chipset, the problem was caused by original patch assigning IRQs starting 16 and up. The VIA chipset uses 4-bit IRQ register for internal interrupt routing, and therefore cannot handle IRQ numbers assigned to its devices. The patch corrects this problem by allowing PCI IRQs below 16.

| * [IA64] strcpy returns NULL pointer and not destination pointerChen, Kenneth W2006-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bob Picco noted that 6edfba1b33c701108717f4e036320fc39abe1912 dropped the -ffreestanding compiler flag from the top level Makefile, which allows the compiler to substitute memcpy() in places where strcpy() is used with a known size source string. But the ia64 memcpy() returns 0 for success, and "bytes copied" for failure. Fix to return the address of the destination string (like stdlibc version, and other architectures). There are no places where ia64 specific code makes use of the non-standard return value. Signed-off-by: Ken Chen <kenneth.w.chen@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
