* [PATCH] kprobes: fix race in recovery of reentrant probeKeshavamurthy Anil S2006-01-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a window where a probe gets removed right after the probe is hit on some different cpu. In this case probe handlers can't find a matching probe instance related to break address. In this case we need to read the original instruction at break address to see if that is not a break/int3 instruction and recover safely. Previous code had a bug where we were not checking for the above race in case of reentrant probes and the below patch fixes this race. Tested on IA64, Powerpc, x86_64.

* [PATCH] uml: fix missing KBUILD_BASENAMEJeff Dike2006-01-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 2.6.15-mm1 caused kernel-offsets.c to stop compiling with a syntax error in a header. The problem was with KBUILD_BASENAME, which didn't get a definition with the by-hand compilation in the main UML Makefile. This was OK before since the expansion was syntactically the same as the KBUILD_BASENAME token. With -mm1, the expansion is now a quote-delimited string, so there needs to be a definition of it. Since kernel-offsets.c is basically the same as other arches' asm-offsets.c, and those seem to build OK, this patch turns kernel-offsets.c into asm-offsets.c. kernel-offsets.c is in arch/um/sys-$(SUBARCH), i.e. sys-i386 and sys-x86_64, while kbuild expects it to be in arch/um/kernel. kernel-offsets.c is moved to arch/um/include/sysdep-$(SUBARCH)/kernel-offsets.h, which is included by arch/um/kernel/asm-offsets.c. With that, include/asm-um/asm-offsets.h is generated automatically. kernel-offsets.h continues to exist because it needs to be accessible to userspace UML code, and include/asm-um isn't. So, a symlink is made from arch/um/include/kernel-offsets.h to include/asm-um/asm-offsets.h.

| * [PATCH] powerpc/64: per cpu data optimisationsAnton Blanchard2006-01-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current ppc64 per cpu data implementation is quite slow. eg: lhz 11,18(13) /* smp_processor_id() */ ld 9,.LC63-.LCTOC1(30) /* per_cpu__variable_name */ ld 8,.LC61-.LCTOC1(30) /* __per_cpu_offset */ sldi 11,11,3 /* form index into __per_cpu_offset */ mr 10,9 ldx 9,11,8 /* __per_cpu_offset[smp_processor_id()] */ ldx 0,10,9 /* load per cpu data */ 5 loads for something that is supposed to be fast, pretty awful. One reason for the large number of loads is that we have to synthesize 2 64bit constants (per_cpu__variable_name and __per_cpu_offset). By putting __per_cpu_offset into the paca we can avoid the 2 loads associated with it: ld 11,56(13) /* paca->data_offset */ ld 9,.LC59-.LCTOC1(30) /* per_cpu__variable_name */ ldx 0,9,11 /* load per cpu data Longer term we can should be able to do even better than 3 loads. If per_cpu__variable_name wasnt a 64bit constant and paca->data_offset was in a register we could cut it down to one load. A suggestion from Rusty is to use gcc's __thread extension here. In order to do this we would need to free up r13 (the __thread register and where the paca currently is). So far Ive had a few unsuccessful attempts at doing that :) The patch also allocates per cpu memory node local on NUMA machines. This patch from Rusty has been sitting in my queue _forever_ but stalled when I hit the compiler bug. Sorry about that. Finally I also only allocate per cpu data for possible cpus, which comes straight out of the x86-64 port. On a pseries kernel (with NR_CPUS == 128) and 4 possible cpus we see some nice gains: total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 4012228 212860 3799368 0 0 162424 total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 4016200 212984 3803216 0 0 162424 A saving of 3.75MB. Quite nice for smaller machines. Note: we now have to be careful of per cpu users that touch data for !possible cpus. At this stage it might be worth making the NUMA and possible cpu optimisations generic, but per cpu init is done so early we have to be careful that all architectures have their possible map setup correctly.

| * [PATCH] powerpc: Make early debugging configurable via KconfigMichael Ellerman2006-01-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds Kconfig entries to control the early debugging options, currently in setup_64.c. Doing this via Kconfig rather than #defines means you can have one source tree, which is buildable for multiple platforms - and you can enable the correct early debug option for each platform via .config. I made udbg_early_init() a static inline because otherwise GCC is to daft to optimise it away when debugging is off. Now that we have udbg_init_rtas() we can make call_rtas_display_status* static.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a patch adapted from a posting by Andrea Tarani which was pointed out to me by Bernardo Innocenti. Thanks to both of them for their help and patience. The original posting is here: http://mailman.uclinux.org/pipermail/uclinux-dev/2005-July/033543.html The problem first manifest itself as busybox ping terminating with an "Illegal instruction". I reduced this to a test case and found that variable size arrays allocated on the stack could lead to stacks not aligned on 32 bit boundaries. For the Coldfire this proved fatal. Having been pointed out this patch by Bernardo, I applied it and it fixed the first test case. I then went back to busybox's ping. This still failed with "Illegal instruction", but in a different way. Before it depended on the size allocated for the ping buffer, now it happened every time. I also found it depended on optimisation level (gcc-3.4.0) -Os was okay but not -O2. After a lot of looking, it turned out that register a5 was being corrupted by the signal handler (after applying the patch). I re-worked the patch a bit to save/restore a5 and now all seems well.
