* [IA64-SGI] Make number of TIO nodes configurableJack Steiner2006-02-27
| | | | | | | | | Make the limit for the number of TIO nodes a function of the number of C/M nodes in the system instead of a hardcoded constant. The number of TIO nodes should be the same as the number of C/M nodes. Signed-off-by: Jack Steiner <steiner@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

| | * [IA64] Count disabled cpus as potential hot-pluggable CPUsAshok Raj2006-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Have a facility to account for potentially hot-pluggable CPUs. ACPI doesnt give a determinstic method to find hot-pluggable CPUs. Hence we use 2 methods to assist. - BIOS can mark potentially hot-pluggable CPUs as disabled in the MADT tables. - User can specify the number of hot-pluggable CPUs via parameter additional_cpus=X The option is enabled only if ACPI_CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y which enables the physical hotplug option. Without which user can still use logical onlining and offlining of CPUs by enabling CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y Adds more bits to cpu_possible_map for potentially hot-pluggable cpus.

| * | [IA64] ia64: simplify and fix udelay()hawkes@sgi.com2006-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original ia64 udelay() was simple, but flawed for platforms without synchronized ITCs: a preemption and migration to another CPU during the while-loop likely resulted in too-early termination or very, very lengthy looping. The first fix (now in 2.6.15) broke the delay loop into smaller, non-preemptible chunks, reenabling preemption between the chunks. This fix is flawed in that the total udelay is computed to be the sum of just the non-premptible while-loop pieces, i.e., not counting the time spent in the interim preemptible periods. If an interrupt or a migration occurs during one of these interim periods, then that time is invisible and only serves to lengthen the effective udelay(). This new fix backs out the current flawed fix and returns to a simple udelay(), fully preemptible and interruptible. It implements two simple alternative udelay() routines: one a default generic version that uses ia64_get_itc(), and the other an sn-specific version that uses that platform's RTC.

* / [PATCH] madvise MADV_DONTFORK/MADV_DOFORKMichael S. Tsirkin2006-02-14
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, copy-on-write may change the physical address of a page even if the user requested that the page is pinned in memory (either by mlock or by get_user_pages). This happens if the process forks meanwhile, and the parent writes to that page. As a result, the page is orphaned: in case of get_user_pages, the application will never see any data hardware DMA's into this page after the COW. In case of mlock'd memory, the parent is not getting the realtime/security benefits of mlock. In particular, this affects the Infiniband modules which do DMA from and into user pages all the time. This patch adds madvise options to control whether memory range is inherited across fork. Useful e.g. for when hardware is doing DMA from/into these pages. Could also be useful to an application wanting to speed up its forks by cutting large areas out of consideration. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

* | [PATCH] Export cpu topology in sysfsZhang, Yanmin2006-02-03
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch implements cpu topology exportation by sysfs. Items (attributes) are similar to /proc/cpuinfo. 1) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/physical_package_id: represent the physical package id of cpu X; 2) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/core_id: represent the cpu core id to cpu X; 3) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/thread_siblings: represent the thread siblings to cpu X in the same core; 4) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/core_siblings: represent the thread siblings to cpu X in the same physical package; To implement it in an architecture-neutral way, a new source file, driver/base/topology.c, is to export the 5 attributes. If one architecture wants to support this feature, it just needs to implement 4 defines, typically in file include/asm-XXX/topology.h. The 4 defines are: #define topology_physical_package_id(cpu) #define topology_core_id(cpu) #define topology_thread_siblings(cpu) #define topology_core_siblings(cpu) The type of **_id is int. The type of siblings is cpumask_t. To be consistent on all architectures, the 4 attributes should have deafult values if their values are unavailable. Below is the rule. 1) physical_package_id: If cpu has no physical package id, -1 is the default value. 2) core_id: If cpu doesn't support multi-core, its core id is 0. 3) thread_siblings: Just include itself, if the cpu doesn't support HT/multi-thread. 4) core_siblings: Just include itself, if the cpu doesn't support multi-core and HT/Multi-thread. So be careful when declaring the 4 defines in include/asm-XXX/topology.h. If an attribute isn't defined on an architecture, it won't be exported. Thank Nathan, Greg, Andi, Paul and Venki. The patch provides defines for i386/x86_64/ia64.

* [IA64-SGI] Fix sn_flush_device_kernel & spinlock initializationPrarit Bhargava2006-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch separates the sn_flush_device_list struct into kernel and common (both kernel and PROM accessible) structures. As it was, if the size of a spinlock_t changed (due to additional CONFIG options, etc.) the sal call which populated the sn_flush_device_list structs would erroneously write data (and cause memory corruption and/or a panic). This patch does the following: 1. Removes sn_flush_device_list and adds sn_flush_device_common and sn_flush_device_kernel. 2. Adds a new SAL call to populate a sn_flush_device_common struct per device, not per widget as previously done. 3. Correctly initializes each device's sn_flush_device_kernel spinlock_t struct (before it was only doing each widget's first device).

The first problem was that detection time scaled with O(N^2), which is unacceptable on larger SMP and NUMA systems. To solve this: - I've added a 'domain distance' function, which is used to cache measurement results. Each distance is only measured once. This means that e.g. on NUMA distances of 0, 1 and 2 might be measured, on HT distances 0 and 1, and on SMP distance 0 is measured. The code walks the domain tree to determine the distance, so it automatically follows whatever hierarchy an architecture sets up. This cuts down on the boot time significantly and removes the O(N^2) limit. The only assumption is that migration costs can be expressed as a function of domain distance - this covers the overwhelming majority of existing systems, and is a good guess even for more assymetric systems. [ People hacking systems that have assymetries that break this assumption (e.g. different CPU speeds) should experiment a bit with the cpu_distance() function. Adding a ->migration_distance factor to the domain structure would be one possible solution - but lets first see the problem systems, if they exist at all. Lets not overdesign. ] Another problem was that only a single cache-size was used for measuring the cost of migration, and most architectures didnt set that variable up. Furthermore, a single cache-size does not fit NUMA hierarchies with L3 caches and does not fit HT setups, where different CPUs will often have different 'effective cache sizes'. To solve this problem: - Instead of relying on a single cache-size provided by the platform and sticking to it, the code now auto-detects the 'effective migration cost' between two measured CPUs, via iterating through a wide range of cachesizes. The code searches for the maximum migration cost, which occurs when the working set of the test-workload falls just below the 'effective cache size'. I.e. real-life optimized search is done for the maximum migration cost, between two real CPUs. This, amongst other things, has the positive effect hat if e.g. two CPUs share a L2/L3 cache, a different (and accurate) migration cost will be found than between two CPUs on the same system that dont share any caches. (The reliable measurement of migration costs is tricky - see the source for details.) Furthermore i've added various boot-time options to override/tune migration behavior. Firstly, there's a blanket override for autodetection: migration_cost=1000,2000,3000 will override the depth 0/1/2 values with 1msec/2msec/3msec values. Secondly, there's a global factor that can be used to increase (or decrease) the autodetected values: migration_factor=120 will increase the autodetected values by 20%. This option is useful to tune things in a workload-dependent way - e.g. if a workload is cache-insensitive then CPU utilization can be maximized by specifying migration_factor=0. I've tested the autodetection code quite extensively on x86, on 3 P3/Xeon/2MB, and the autodetected values look pretty good: Dual Celeron (128K L2 cache): --------------------- migration cost matrix (max_cache_size: 131072, cpu: 467 MHz): --------------------- [00] [01] [00]: - 1.7(1) [01]: 1.7(1) - --------------------- cacheflush times [2]: 0.0 (0) 1.7 (1784008) --------------------- Here the slow memory subsystem dominates system performance, and even though caches are small, the migration cost is 1.7 msecs. Dual HT P4 (512K L2 cache): --------------------- migration cost matrix (max_cache_size: 524288, cpu: 2379 MHz): --------------------- [00] [01] [02] [03] [00]: - 0.4(1) 0.0(0) 0.4(1) [01]: 0.4(1) - 0.4(1) 0.0(0) [02]: 0.0(0) 0.4(1) - 0.4(1) [03]: 0.4(1) 0.0(0) 0.4(1) - --------------------- cacheflush times [2]: 0.0 (33900) 0.4 (448514) --------------------- Here it can be seen that there is no migration cost between two HT siblings (CPU#0/2 and CPU#1/3 are separate physical CPUs). A fast memory system makes inter-physical-CPU migration pretty cheap: 0.4 msecs. 8-way P3/Xeon [2MB L2 cache]: --------------------- migration cost matrix (max_cache_size: 2097152, cpu: 700 MHz): --------------------- [00] [01] [02] [03] [04] [05] [06] [07] [00]: - 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) [01]: 19.2(1) - 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) [02]: 19.2(1) 19.2(1) - 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) [03]: 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) - 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) [04]: 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) - 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) [05]: 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) - 19.2(1) 19.2(1) [06]: 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) - 19.2(1) [07]: 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) - --------------------- cacheflush times [2]: 0.0 (0) 19.2 (19281756) --------------------- This one has huge caches and a relatively slow memory subsystem - so the migration cost is 19 msecs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently arch_remove_kprobes() is only implemented/required for x86_64 and powerpc. All other architecture like IA64, i386 and sparc64 implementes a dummy function which is being called from arch independent kprobes.c file.

* [PATCH] kprobes: changed from using spinlock to mutexAnil S Keshavamurthy2006-01-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since Kprobes runtime exception handlers is now lock free as this code path is now using RCU to walk through the list, there is no need for the register/unregister{_kprobe} to use spin_{lock/unlock}_isr{save/restore}. The serialization during registration/unregistration is now possible using just a mutex. In the above process, this patch also fixes a minor memory leak for x86_64 and powerpc.

* [PATCH] /dev/mem: validate mmap requestsBjorn Helgaas2006-01-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a hook so architectures can validate /dev/mem mmap requests. This is analogous to validation we already perform in the read/write paths. The identity mapping scheme used on ia64 requires that each 16MB or 64MB granule be accessed with exactly one attribute (write-back or uncacheable). This avoids "attribute aliasing", which can cause a machine check. Sample problem scenario: - Machine supports VGA, so it has uncacheable (UC) MMIO at 640K-768K - efi_memmap_init() discards any write-back (WB) memory in the first granule - Application (e.g., "hwinfo") mmaps /dev/mem, offset 0 - hwinfo receives UC mapping (the default, since memmap says "no WB here") - Machine check abort (on chipsets that don't support UC access to WB memory, e.g., sx1000) In the scenario above, the only choices are - Use WB for hwinfo mmap. Can't do this because it causes attribute aliasing with the UC mapping for the VGA MMIO space. - Use UC for hwinfo mmap. Can't do this because the chipset may not support UC for that region. - Disallow the hwinfo mmap with -EINVAL. That's what this patch does.
