* [PATCH] sched: cleanup context switch lockingNick Piggin2005-06-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of requiring architecture code to interact with the scheduler's locking implementation, provide a couple of defines that can be used by the architecture to request runqueue unlocked context switches, and ask for interrupts to be enabled over the context switch. Also replaces the "switch_lock" used by these architectures with an oncpu flag (note, not a potentially slow bitflag). This eliminates one bus locked memory operation when context switching, and simplifies the task_running function.

* [PATCH] Don't force O_LARGEFILE for 32 bit processes on ia64Yoav Zach2005-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In ia64 kernel, the O_LARGEFILE flag is forced when opening a file. This is problematic for execution of 32 bit processes, which are not largefile aware, either by SW emulation or by HW execution. For such processes, the problem is two-fold: 1) When trying to open a file that is larger than 4G the operation should fail, but it's not 2) Writing to offset larger than 4G should fail, but it's not The proposed patch takes advantage of the way 32 bit processes are identified in ia64 systems. Such processes have PER_LINUX32 for their personality. With the patch, the ia64 kernel will not enforce the O_LARGEFILE flag if the current process has PER_LINUX32 set. The behavior for all other architectures remains unchanged.

* [PATCH] Kprobes IA64: cmp ctype unc supportAnil S Keshavamurthy2005-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current Kprobes when patching the original instruction with the break instruction tries to retain the original qualifying predicate(qp), however for cmp.crel.ctype where ctype == unc, which is a special instruction always needs to be executed irrespective of qp. Hence, if the instruction we are patching is of this type, then we should not copy the original qp to the break instruction, this is because we always want the break fault to happen so that we can emulate the instruction.

* [PATCH] Kprobes ia64 cleanupRusty Lynch2005-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A cleanup of the ia64 kprobes implementation such that all of the bundle manipulation logic is concentrated in arch_prepare_kprobe(). With the current design for kprobes, the arch specific code only has a chance to return failure inside the arch_prepare_kprobe() function. This patch moves all of the work that was happening in arch_copy_kprobe() and most of the work that was happening in arch_arm_kprobe() into arch_prepare_kprobe(). By doing this we can add further robustness checks in arch_arm_kprobe() and refuse to insert kprobes that will cause problems.

* [PATCH] Kprobes/IA64: kdebug die notification mechanismAnil S Keshavamurthy2005-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As many of you know that kprobes exist in the main line kernel for various architecture including i386, x86_64, ppc64 and sparc64. Attached patches following this mail are a port of Kprobes and Jprobes for IA64. I have tesed this patches for kprobes and Jprobes and this seems to work fine. I have tested this patch by inserting kprobes on various slots and various templates including various types of branch instructions. I have also tested this patch using the tool http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=111657358022586&w=2 and the kprobes for IA64 works great. Here is list of TODO things and pathes for the same will appear soon. 1) Support kprobes on "mov r1=ip" type of instruction 2) Support Kprobes and Jprobes to exist on the same address 3) Support Return probes 3) Architecture independent cleanup of kprobes This patch adds the kdebug die notification mechanism needed by Kprobes. For break instruction on Branch type slot, imm21 is ignored and value zero is placed in IIM register, hence we need to handle kprobes for switch case zero.

* [PATCH] streamline preempt_count type across archsJesper Juhl2005-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The preempt_count member of struct thread_info is currently either defined as int, unsigned int or __s32 depending on arch. This patch makes the type of preempt_count an int on all archs. Having preempt_count be an unsigned type prevents the catching of preempt_count < 0 bugs, and using int on some archs and __s32 on others is not exactely "neat" - much nicer when it's just int all over. A previous version of this patch was already ACK'ed by Robert Love, and the only change in this version of the patch compared to the one he ACK'ed is that this one also makes sure the preempt_count member is consistently commented.

* [PATCH] ia64 uncached allocJes Sorensen2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch contains the ia64 uncached page allocator and the generic allocator (genalloc). The uncached allocator was formerly part of the SN2 mspec driver but there are several other users of it so it has been split off from the driver. The generic allocator can be used by device driver to manage special memory etc. The generic allocator is based on the allocator from the sym53c8xx_2 driver. Various users on ia64 needs uncached memory. The SGI SN architecture requires it for inter-partition communication between partitions within a large NUMA cluster. The specific user for this is the XPC code. Another application is large MPI style applications which use it for synchronization, on SN this can be done using special 'fetchop' operations but it also benefits non SN hardware which may use regular uncached memory for this purpose. Performance of doing this through uncached vs cached memory is pretty substantial. This is handled by the mspec driver which I will push out in a seperate patch. Rather than creating a specific allocator for just uncached memory I came up with genalloc which is a generic purpose allocator that can be used by device drivers and other subsystems as they please. For instance to handle onboard device memory. It was derived from the sym53c7xx_2 driver's allocator which is also an example of a potential user (I am refraining from modifying sym2 right now as it seems to have been under fairly heavy development recently). On ia64 memory has various properties within a granule, ie. it isn't safe to access memory as uncached within the same granule as currently has memory accessed in cached mode. The regular system therefore doesn't utilize memory in the lower granules which is mixed in with device PAL code etc. The uncached driver walks the EFI memmap and pulls out the spill uncached pages and sticks them into the uncached pool. Only after these chunks have been utilized, will it start converting regular cached memory into uncached memory. Hence the reason for the EFI related code additions.

* [PATCH] Hugepage consolidationDavid Gibson2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A lot of the code in arch/*/mm/hugetlbpage.c is quite similar. This patch attempts to consolidate a lot of the code across the arch's, putting the combined version in mm/hugetlb.c. There are a couple of uglyish hacks in order to covert all the hugepage archs, but the result is a very large reduction in the total amount of code. It also means things like hugepage lazy allocation could be implemented in one place, instead of six. Tested, at least a little, on ppc64, i386 and x86_64. Notes: - this patch changes the meaning of set_huge_pte() to be more analagous to set_pte() - does SH4 need s special huge_ptep_get_and_clear()??

* [PATCH] VM: early zone reclaimMartin Hicks2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the core of the (much simplified) early reclaim. The goal of this patch is to reclaim some easily-freed pages from a zone before falling back onto another zone. One of the major uses of this is NUMA machines. With the default allocator behavior the allocator would look for memory in another zone, which might be off-node, before trying to reclaim from the current zone. This adds a zone tuneable to enable early zone reclaim. It is selected on a per-zone basis and is turned on/off via syscall. Adding some extra throttling on the reclaim was also required (patch 4/4). Without the machine would grind to a crawl when doing a "make -j" kernel build. Even with this patch the System Time is higher on average, but it seems tolerable. Here are some numbers for kernbench runs on a 2-node, 4cpu, 8Gig RAM Altix in the "make -j" run: wall user sys %cpu ctx sw. sleeps ---- ---- --- ---- ------ ------ No patch 1009 1384 847 258 298170 504402 w/patch, no reclaim 880 1376 667 288 254064 396745 w/patch & reclaim 1079 1385 926 252 291625 548873 These numbers are the average of 2 runs of 3 "make -j" runs done right after system boot. Run-to-run variability for "make -j" is huge, so these numbers aren't terribly useful except to seee that with reclaim the benchmark still finishes in a reasonable amount of time. I also looked at the NUMA hit/miss stats for the "make -j" runs and the reclaim doesn't make any difference when the machine is thrashing away. Doing a "make -j8" on a single node that is filled with page cache pages takes 700 seconds with reclaim turned on and 735 seconds without reclaim (due to remote memory accesses).

* [PATCH] smp_processor_id() cleanupIngo Molnar2005-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements a number of smp_processor_id() cleanup ideas that Arjan van de Ven and I came up with. The previous __smp_processor_id/_smp_processor_id/smp_processor_id API spaghetti was hard to follow both on the implementational and on the usage side. Some of the complexity arose from picking wrong names, some of the complexity comes from the fact that not all architectures defined __smp_processor_id. In the new code, there are two externally visible symbols: - smp_processor_id(): debug variant. - raw_smp_processor_id(): nondebug variant. Replaces all existing uses of _smp_processor_id() and __smp_processor_id(). Defined by every SMP architecture in include/asm-*/smp.h. There is one new internal symbol, dependent on DEBUG_PREEMPT: - debug_smp_processor_id(): internal debug variant, mapped to smp_processor_id(). Also, i moved debug_smp_processor_id() from lib/kernel_lock.c into a new lib/smp_processor_id.c file. All related comments got updated and/or clarified. I have build/boot tested the following 8 .config combinations on x86: {SMP,UP} x {PREEMPT,!PREEMPT} x {DEBUG_PREEMPT,!DEBUG_PREEMPT} I have also build/boot tested x64 on UP/PREEMPT/DEBUG_PREEMPT.

* [PATCH] ia64: fix floating-point preemption problemPeter Chubb2005-06-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There've been reports of problems with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y and the high floating point partition. This is caused by the possibility of preemption and rescheduling on a different processor while saving or restioirng the high partition. The only places where the FPU state is touched are in ptrace, in switch_to(), and where handling a floating-point exception. In switch_to() preemption is off. So it's only in trap.c and ptrace.c that we need to prevent preemption. Here is a patch that adds commentary to make the conditions clear, and adds appropriate preempt_{en,dis}able() calls to make it so. In trap.c I use preempt_enable_no_resched(), as we're about to return to user space where the preemption flag will be checked anyway.

* [PATCH] move SA_xxx defines to linux/signal.hStas Sergeev2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The attached patch moves the IRQ-related SA_xxx flags (namely, SA_PROBE, SA_SAMPLE_RANDOM and SA_SHIRQ) from all the arch-specific headers to linux/signal.h. This looks like a left-over after the irq-handling code was consolidated. The code was moved to kernel/irq/*, but the flags are still left per-arch. Right now, adding a new IRQ flag to the arch-specific header, like this patch does: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/*checkout*/alsa/alsa-driver/utils/patches/pcsp-kernel-2.6.10-03.diff?rev=1.1 no longer works, it breaks the compilation for all other arches, unless you add that flag to all the other arch-specific headers too. So I think such a clean-up makes sense. Signed-off-by: Stas Sergeev <stsp@aknet.ru> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* [IA64] re-enable preempt before page allocation for pgtable quicklistMartin Hicks2005-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | This is a fix to the pgtable_quicklist code. There is a GFP_KERNEL allocation in pgtable_quicklist_alloc(), which spews the usual warnings if the kernel is under heavy VM pressure and the reclaim code is invoked. re-enable preempt before we allocate the new page.

* [IA64] Altix system controller event handlingGreg Howard2005-04-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The following is an update of the patch I sent yesterday (3/9/05) incorporating suggestions from Christoph Hellwig and Andreas Schwab. It allows Altix and Altix-like systems to handle environmental events generated by the system controllers, and should apply on top of Jack Steiner's patch of 3/1/05 ("New chipset support for SN platform") and Mark Goodwin's patch of 3/8/05 ("Altix SN topology support for new chipsets and pci topology").

* [IA64] vector sharing (Large I/O system support)Kenji Kaneshige2005-04-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current ia64 linux cannot handle greater than 184 interrupt sources because of the lack of vectors. The following patch enables ia64 linux to handle greater than 184 interrupt sources by allowing the same vector number to be shared by multiple IOSAPIC's RTEs. The design of this patch is besed on "Intel(R) Itanium(R) Processor Family Interrupt Architecture Guide". Even if you don't have a large I/O system, you can see the behavior of vector sharing by changing IOSAPIC_LAST_DEVICE_VECTOR to fewer value.

* [IA64-SGI] Altix SN add support for slots in geoid_t locatorMark Goodwin2005-04-25
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch against ia64-test-2.6.12 is needed for forthcoming Altix chipsets. It renames geoid_any_t to geoid_common_t and splits the 8bit 'slab' field into two 4bit fields for 'slab' and 'slot'. Similar changes in the Altix SAL will retain backward compatibility for old kernels. Signed-off-by: Mark Goodwin <markgw@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
