* Add commentary about the new "asmlinkage_protect()" macroLinus Torvalds2008-04-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's really a pretty ugly thing to need, and some day it will hopefully be obviated by teaching gcc about the magic calling conventions for the low-level system call code, but in the meantime we can at least add big honking comments about why we need these insane and strange macros. I took my comments from my version of the macro, but I ended up deciding to just pick Roland's version of the actual code instead (with his prettier syntax that uses vararg macros). Thus the previous two commits that actually implement it. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* asmlinkage_protect replaces prevent_tail_callRoland McGrath2008-04-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The prevent_tail_call() macro works around the problem of the compiler clobbering argument words on the stack, which for asmlinkage functions is the caller's (user's) struct pt_regs. The tail/sibling-call optimization is not the only way that the compiler can decide to use stack argument words as scratch space, which we have to prevent. Other optimizations can do it too. Until we have new compiler support to make "asmlinkage" binding on the compiler's own use of the stack argument frame, we have work around all the manifestations of this issue that crop up. More cases seem to be prevented by also keeping the incoming argument variables live at the end of the function. This makes their original stack slots attractive places to leave those variables, so the compiler tends not clobber them for something else. It's still no guarantee, but it handles some observed cases that prevent_tail_call() did not.

* x86: fix 64-bit asm NOPS for CONFIG_GENERIC_CPUSuresh Siddha2008-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ASM_NOP's for 64-bit kernel with CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU is broken with the recent x86 nops merge. They were using GENERIC_NOPS which will truncate the upper 32bits of %rsi, because of the missing 64bit rex prefix. For now, fall back ASM NOPS for generic cpu to K8 NOPS, similar to the code before the wrong x86 nop merge. This should resolve the crash seen by Ingo on a test-system: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 00000000d80d8ee8 IP: [<ffffffff802121af>] save_i387_ia32+0x61/0xd8 PGD b8e0067 PUD 51490067 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [1] SMP CPU 2 Modules linked in: Pid: 3871, comm: distcc Not tainted 2.6.25-rc7-sched-devel.git-x86-latest.git #359 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff802121af>] [<ffffffff802121af>] save_i387_ia32+0x61/0xd8 RSP: 0000:ffff81003abd3cb8 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: ffff810082e93400 RBX: 00000000ffc37f84 RCX: ffff8100d80d8ee0 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 00000000d80d8ee0 RDI: ffff810082e93400 RBP: 00000000ffc37fdc R08: 00000000ffc37f88 R09: 0000000000000008 R10: ffff81003abd2000 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: ffff810082e93400 R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff81011fb12dc0(0063) knlGS:00000000f7f1a6c0 CS: 0010 DS: 002b ES: 002b CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00000000d80d8ee8 CR3: 0000000076922000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process distcc (pid: 3871, threadinfo ffff81003abd2000, task ffff8100d80d8ee0) Stack: ffff8100bb670380 ffffffff8026de50 0000000000000118 0000000000000002 0000000000000002 ffff81003abd3e68 ffff81003abd3ed8 ffff81003abd3de8 ffff81003abd3d18 ffffffff80229785 ffff8100d80d8ee0 ffff810001041280 Call Trace: [<ffffffff8026de50>] ? __generic_file_aio_write_nolock+0x343/0x377 [<ffffffff80229785>] ? update_curr+0x54/0x64 [<ffffffff80227cd3>] ? ia32_setup_sigcontext+0x125/0x1d2 [<ffffffff8022839f>] ? ia32_setup_frame+0x73/0x1a5 [<ffffffff8020b2a5>] ? do_notify_resume+0x1aa/0x7db [<ffffffff8024ae8c>] ? getnstimeofday+0x31/0x85 [<ffffffff80249858>] ? ktime_get_ts+0x17/0x48 [<ffffffff80249933>] ? ktime_get+0xc/0x41 [<ffffffff8024973e>] ? hrtimer_nanosleep+0x75/0xd5 [<ffffffff80249261>] ? hrtimer_wakeup+0x0/0x21 [<ffffffff8020bfbc>] ? int_signal+0x12/0x17 [<ffffffff8030e6b3>] ? dummy_file_free_security+0x0/0x1 Code: a6 08 05 00 00 f6 40 14 01 74 34 4c 89 e7 48 0f ae 07 48 8b 86 08 05 00 00 80 78 02 00 79 02 db e2 90 8d b4 26 00 00 00 00 89 f6 <48> 8b 46 08 83 60 14 fe 0f 20 c0 48 83 c8 08 0f 22 c0 eb 07 c6 Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

* x86: fix performance drop for glxSuresh Siddha2008-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fix the 3D performance drop reported at: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10328 fb drivers are using ioremap()/ioremap_nocache(), followed by mtrr_add with WC attribute. Recent changes in page attribute code made both ioremap()/ioremap_nocache() mappings as UC (instead of previous UC-). This breaks the graphics performance, as the effective memory type is UC instead of expected WC. The correct way to fix this is to add ioremap_wc() (which uses UC- in the absence of PAT kernel support and WC with PAT) and change all the fb drivers to use this new ioremap_wc() API. We can take this correct and longer route for post 2.6.25. For now, revert back to the UC- behavior for ioremap/ioremap_nocache.

* x86-32: Pass the full resource data to ioremap()Linus Torvalds2008-03-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It appears that 64-bit PCI resources cannot possibly ever have worked on x86-32 even when the RESOURCES_64BIT config option was set, because any driver that tried to [pci_]ioremap() the resource would have been unable to do so because the high 32 bits would have been silently dropped on the floor by the ioremap() routines that only used "unsigned long". Change them to use "resource_size_t" instead, which properly encodes the whole 64-bit resource data if RESOURCES_64BIT is enabled. Acked-by: H.

It was supposed to be a relatively small pool, but as demonstrated by KOSAKI Motohiro, they can grow as large as: Quicklists: 1194304 kB given how much trouble this code has caused historically, and given that Andrew objected to its introduction on x86 (years ago), the best option at this point is to remove them.

* x86: fix pmd_bad and pud_bad to support huge pagesHans Rosenfeld2008-02-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I recently stumbled upon a problem in the support for huge pages. If a program using huge pages does not explicitly unmap them, they remain mapped (and therefore, are lost) after the program exits. I observed that the free huge page count in /proc/meminfo decreased when running my program, and it did not increase after the program exited. After running the program a few times, no more huge pages could be allocated. The reason for this seems to be that the x86 pmd_bad and pud_bad consider pmd/pud entries having the PSE bit set invalid. I think there is nothing wrong with this bit being set, it just indicates that the lowest level of translation has been reached. This bit has to be (and is) checked after the basic validity of the entry has been checked, like in this fragment from follow_page() in mm/memory.c: if (pmd_none(*pmd) || unlikely(pmd_bad(*pmd))) goto no_page_table; if (pmd_huge(*pmd)) { BUG_ON(flags & FOLL_GET); page = follow_huge_pmd(mm, address, pmd, flags & FOLL_WRITE); goto out; } Note that this code currently doesn't work as intended if the pmd refers to a huge page, the pmd_huge() check can not be reached if the page is huge. Extending pmd_bad() (and, for future 1GB page support, pud_bad()) to allow for the PSE bit being set fixes this. For similar reasons, allowing the NX bit being set is necessary, too. I have seen huge pages having the NX bit set in their pmd entry, which would cause the same problem. Signed-Off-By: Hans Rosenfeld <hans.rosenfeld@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | recently the 64-bit allyesconfig bzImage kernel started spontaneously rebooting during early bootup. after a few fun hours spent with early init debugging, it turns out that we've got this rather annoying limit on the size of the kernel image: #define KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE (40*1024*1024) which limit my vmlinux just happened to pass: text data bss dec hex filename 29703744 4222751 8646224 42572719 2899baf vmlinux 40 MB is 42572719 bytes, so my vmlinux was just 1.5% above this limit :-/ So it happily crashed right in head_64.S, which - as we all know - is the most debuggable code in the whole architecture ;-) So increase the limit to allow an up to 128MB kernel image to be mapped. (should anyone be that crazy or lazy) We have a full 4K of pagetable (level2_kernel_pgt) allocated for these mappings already, so there's no RAM overhead and the limit was rather pointless and arbitrary.

* Remove empty file remnants that were left in the tree by mistakeLinus Torvalds2008-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Noted by various people (Sam, Jeff, Roland..) Commit 58b7983d15a422d9616bdc4e245d5c31dfaefbe2 intended to remove the xfs "Makefile-linux-2.6" file, but it was mistakenly still left in the tree as a empty file, and would cause git to correctly complain about a tracked file being removed after a "make distclean" (which removes empty files as garbage). And the asm-x86/desc_64.h file was supposed to be removed by commit c81c6ca45a69478c7877b729af1942d2b80ef582, but instead stayed around containing just a single newline.

* x86: zap invalid and unused pmds in early bootThomas Gleixner2008-02-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The early boot code maps KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE (currently 40MB) starting from __START_KERNEL_map. The kernel itself only needs _text to _end mapped in the high alias. On relocatible kernels the ASM setup code adjusts the compile time created high mappings to the relocation. This creates invalid pmd entries for negative offsets: 0xffffffff80000000 -> pmd entry: ffffffffff2001e3 It points outside of the physical address space and is marked present. This starts at the virtual address __START_KERNEL_map and goes up to the point where the first valid physical address (0x0) is mapped. Zap the mappings before _text and after _end right away in early boot. This removes also the invalid entries. Furthermore it simplifies the range check for high aliases.

* x86: introduce page pool in cpaThomas Gleixner2008-02-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | DEBUG_PAGEALLOC was not possible on 64-bit due to its early-bootup hardcoded reliance on PSE pages, and the unrobustness of the runtime splitup of large pages. The splitup ended in recursive calls to alloc_pages() when a page for a pte split was requested. Avoid the recursion with a preallocated page pool, which is used to split up large mappings and gets refilled in the return path of kernel_map_pages after the split has been done. The size of the page pool is adjusted to the available memory. This part just implements the page pool and the initialization w/o using it yet.

* CONFIG_HIGHPTE vs. sub-page page tables.Martin Schwidefsky2008-02-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Background: I've implemented 1K/2K page tables for s390. These sub-page page tables are required to properly support the s390 virtualization instruction with KVM. The SIE instruction requires that the page tables have 256 page table entries (pte) followed by 256 page status table entries (pgste). The pgstes are only required if the process is using the SIE instruction. The pgstes are updated by the hardware and by the hypervisor for a number of reasons, one of them is dirty and reference bit tracking. To avoid wasting memory the standard pte table allocation should return 1K/2K (31/64 bit) and 2K/4K if the process is using SIE. Problem: Page size on s390 is 4K, page table size is 1K or 2K. That means the s390 version for pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a struct page. Trouble is that with the CONFIG_HIGHPTE feature on x86 pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a pte either, since that would require more than 32 bit for the return value of pte_alloc_one (and the pte * would not be accessible since its not kmapped). Solution: The only solution I found to this dilemma is a new typedef: a pgtable_t. For s390 pgtable_t will be a (pte *) - to be introduced with a later patch. For everybody else it will be a (struct page *). The additional problem with the initialization of the ptl lock and the NR_PAGETABLE accounting is solved with a constructor pgtable_page_ctor and a destructor pgtable_page_dtor. The page table allocation and free functions need to call these two whenever a page table page is allocated or freed. pmd_populate will get a pgtable_t instead of a struct page pointer. To get the pgtable_t back from a pmd entry that has been installed with pmd_populate a new function pmd_pgtable is added. It replaces the pmd_page call in free_pte_range and apply_to_pte_range.

* aout: suppress A.OUT library support if !CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUTDavid Howells2008-02-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Suppress A.OUT library support if CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT is not set. Not all architectures support the A.OUT binfmt, so the ELF binfmt should not be permitted to go looking for A.OUT libraries to load in such a case. Not only that, but under such conditions A.OUT core dumps are not produced either. To make this work, this patch also does the following: (1) Makes the existence of the contents of linux/a.out.h contingent on CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT. (2) Renames dump_thread() to aout_dump_thread() as it's only called by A.OUT core dumping code. (3) Moves aout_dump_thread() into asm/a.out-core.h and makes it inline. This is then included only where needed. This means that this bit of arch code will be stored in the appropriate A.OUT binfmt module rather than the core kernel. (4) Drops A.OUT support for Blackfin (according to Mike Frysinger it's not needed) and FRV. This patch depends on the previous patch to move STACK_TOP[_MAX] out of asm/a.out.h and into asm/processor.h as they're required whether or not A.OUT format is available.

However, it has a pointer type in the headers, which is pointless -- <asm/user.h> is not exported to userspace, and it just makes the code messy. Redefine the field as "unsigned long" (which is the same size as a pointer on all Linux architectures) and change the setting code to user offsetof() instead of hand-coded arithmetic.
