* | esp_scsi: fix reset cleanup spinlock recursionMaciej W. Rozycki2007-12-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The esp_reset_cleanup() function is called with the host lock held and invokes starget_for_each_device() which wants to take it too. Here is a fix along the lines of shost_for_each_device()/__shost_for_each_device() adding a __starget_for_each_device() counterpart which assumes the lock has already been taken. Eventually, I think the driver should get modified so that more work is done as a softirq rather than in the interrupt context, but for now it fixes a bug that causes the spinlock debugger to fire. While at it, it fixes a small number of cosmetic problems with starget_for_each_device() too. Signed-off-by: Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@linux-mips.org> Acked-by: David S.

* bonding: Add new layer2+3 hash for xor/802.3ad modesJay Vosburgh2007-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add new hash for balance-xor and 802.3ad modes. Originally submitted by "Glenn Griffin" <ggriffin.kernel@gmail.com>; modified by Jay Vosburgh to move setting of hash policy out of line, tweak the documentation update and add version update to 3.2.2. Glenn's original comment follows: Included is a patch for a new xmit_hash_policy for the bonding driver that selects slaves based on MAC and IP information. This is a middle ground between what currently exists in the layer2 only policy and the layer3+4 policy. This policy strives to be fully 802.3ad compliant by transmitting every packet of any particular flow over the same link. As documented the layer3+4 policy is not fully compliant for extreme cases such as ip fragmentation, so this policy is a nice compromise for environments that require full compliance but desire more than the layer2 only policy.

| * [AVR32] Fix copy_to_user_page() breakageHaavard Skinnemoen2007-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current implementation of copy_to_user_page() gives "vaddr" to the cache instruction when trying to sync the icache with the dcache. If vaddr does not exist in the TLB, the CPU will silently abort the operation, which may result in the caches staying out of sync. To fix this, pass the "dst" parameter to flush_icache_range() instead -- we know this is valid because we just wrote to it. Signed-off-by: Haavard Skinnemoen <hskinnemoen@atmel.com>
| * [AVR32] Follow the rules when dealing with the OCD systemHaavard Skinnemoen2007-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current debug trap handling code does a number of things that are illegal according to the AVR32 Architecture manual. Most importantly, it may try to schedule from Debug Mode, thus clearing the D bit, which can lead to "undefined behaviour". It seems like this works in most cases, but several people have observed somewhat unstable behaviour when debugging programs, including soft lockups. So there's definitely something which is not right with the existing code. The new code will never schedule from Debug mode, it will always exit Debug mode with a "retd" instruction, and if something not running in Debug mode needs to do something debug-related (like doing a single step), it will enter debug mode through a "breakpoint" instruction. The monitor code will then return directly to user space, bypassing its own saved registers if necessary (since we don't actually care about the trapped context, only the one that came before.) This adds three instructions to the common exception handling code, including one branch. It does not touch super-hot paths like the TLB miss handler.

| * [AVR32] Clean up OCD register usageHaavard Skinnemoen2007-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Generate a new set of OCD register definitions in asm/ocd.h and rename __mfdr() and __mtdr() to ocd_read() and ocd_write() respectively. The bitfield definitions are a lot more complete now, and they are entirely based on bit numbers, not masks. This is because OCD registers are frequently accessed from assembly code, where bit numbers are a lot more useful (can be fed directly to sbr, bfins, etc.) Bitfields that consist of more than one bit have two definitions: _START, which indicates the number of the first bit, and _SIZE, which indicates the number of bits. These directly correspond to the parameters taken by the bfextu, bfexts and bfins instructions. Signed-off-by: Haavard Skinnemoen <hskinnemoen@atmel.com>

In the deterministic accounting case this is the correct thing to do. However, in the non-deterministic accounting case we need to not do this, since doing this results in the time accounted as hardware irq time being artificially elevated. Also this collapses 2 consecutive '#ifdef CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING' checks in time.h into one for neatness.

After trying his test program on the latest git from mainline, I found the bug was there too. The bug he was seeing that his test program showed, was that if one were to do a "Ctrl-Z" on a process that was in the pthread_cond_timedwait, and then did a "bg" on that process, it would return with a "-ETIMEDOUT" but early. That is, the timer would go off early. Looking into this, I found the source of the problem. And it is a rather nasty bug at that. Here's the relevant code from kernel/futex.c: (not in order in the file) [...] smlinkage long sys_futex(u32 __user *uaddr, int op, u32 val, struct timespec __user *utime, u32 __user *uaddr2, u32 val3) { struct timespec ts; ktime_t t, *tp = NULL; u32 val2 = 0; int cmd = op & FUTEX_CMD_MASK; if (utime && (cmd == FUTEX_WAIT || cmd == FUTEX_LOCK_PI)) { if (copy_from_user(&ts, utime, sizeof(ts)) != 0) return -EFAULT; if (!timespec_valid(&ts)) return -EINVAL; t = timespec_to_ktime(ts); if (cmd == FUTEX_WAIT) t = ktime_add(ktime_get(), t); tp = &t; } [...] return do_futex(uaddr, op, val, tp, uaddr2, val2, val3); } [...] long do_futex(u32 __user *uaddr, int op, u32 val, ktime_t *timeout, u32 __user *uaddr2, u32 val2, u32 val3) { int ret; int cmd = op & FUTEX_CMD_MASK; struct rw_semaphore *fshared = NULL; if (!(op & FUTEX_PRIVATE_FLAG)) fshared = &current->mm->mmap_sem; switch (cmd) { case FUTEX_WAIT: ret = futex_wait(uaddr, fshared, val, timeout); [...] static int futex_wait(u32 __user *uaddr, struct rw_semaphore *fshared, u32 val, ktime_t *abs_time) { [...] struct restart_block *restart; restart = &current_thread_info()->restart_block; restart->fn = futex_wait_restart; restart->arg0 = (unsigned long)uaddr; restart->arg1 = (unsigned long)val; restart->arg2 = (unsigned long)abs_time; restart->arg3 = 0; if (fshared) restart->arg3 |= ARG3_SHARED; return -ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK; [...] static long futex_wait_restart(struct restart_block *restart) { u32 __user *uaddr = (u32 __user *)restart->arg0; u32 val = (u32)restart->arg1; ktime_t *abs_time = (ktime_t *)restart->arg2; struct rw_semaphore *fshared = NULL; restart->fn = do_no_restart_syscall; if (restart->arg3 & ARG3_SHARED) fshared = &current->mm->mmap_sem; return (long)futex_wait(uaddr, fshared, val, abs_time); } So when the futex_wait is interrupt by a signal we break out of the hrtimer code and set up or return from signal. This code does not return back to userspace, so we set up a RESTARTBLOCK. The bug here is that we save the "abs_time" which is a pointer to the stack variable "ktime_t t" from sys_futex. This returns and unwinds the stack before we get to call our signal. On return from the signal we go to futex_wait_restart, where we update all the parameters for futex_wait and call it. But here we have a problem where abs_time is no longer valid. I verified this with print statements, and sure enough, what abs_time was set to ends up being garbage when we get to futex_wait_restart. The solution I did to solve this (with input from Linus Torvalds) was to add unions to the restart_block to allow system calls to use the restart with specific parameters. This way the futex code now saves the time in a 64bit value in the restart block instead of storing it on the stack. Note: I'm a bit nervious to add "linux/types.h" and use u32 and u64 in thread_info.h, when there's a #ifdef __KERNEL__ just below that. Not sure what that is there for. If this turns out to be a problem, I've tested this with using "unsigned int" for u32 and "unsigned long long" for u64 and it worked just the same. I'm using u32 and u64 just to be consistent with what the futex code uses.

Since this is just a hint address this patch will round such a hint address above mmap_min_addr. gcj was found to try to be very frugal with vm usage and give hint addresses in the 8k-32k range. Without this patch all such programs failed and with the patch they happily get a higher address. This patch is wrappad in CONFIG_SECURITY since mmap_min_addr doesn't exist without it and there would be no security check possible no matter what.

If this call happens to remove all of them (and there were already some buffers), __journal_remove_checkpoint() will decide to free the transaction because it isn't (yet) a committing transaction and soon we fail some assertion - the transaction really isn't ready to be freed :). We change the check in __journal_remove_checkpoint() to free only a transaction in T_FINISHED state. The locking there is subtle though (as everywhere in JBD ;(). We use j_list_lock to protect the check and a subsequent call to __journal_drop_transaction() and do the same in the end of journal_commit_transaction() which is the only place where a transaction can get to T_FINISHED state. Probably I'm too paranoid here and such locking is not really necessary - checkpoint lists are processed only from log_do_checkpoint() where a transaction must be already committed to be processed or from __journal_clean_checkpoint_list() where kjournald itself calls it and thus transaction cannot change state either. Better be safe if something changes in future...

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If HPET was enabled by pci quirks, we use i8253 as initial clockevent because pci quirks doesn't run until pci is initialized. The above means the kernel (or something) is assuming HPET legacy replacement is disabled and can use i8253 at boot. If we used kexec, it isn't true. So, this patch disables HPET legacy replacement for kexec in machine_shutdown().

This feature would be useful if someone wants to group tasks only for accounting purpose and doesnt really want to exercise any control over their cpu consumption. The patch below reintroduces the feature. It is based on Paul Menage's original patch (Commit 62d0df64065e7c135d0002f069444fbdfc64768f), with these differences: - Removed load average information. I felt it needs more thought (esp to deal with SMP and virtualized platforms) and can be added for 2.6.25 after more discussions. - Convert group cpu usage to be nanosecond accurate (as rest of the cfs stats are) and invoke cpuacct_charge() from the respective scheduler classes - Make accounting scalable on SMP systems by splitting the usage counter to be per-cpu - Move the code from kernel/cpu_acct.c to kernel/sched.c (since the code is not big enough to warrant a new file and also this rightly needs to live inside the scheduler. Also things like accessing rq->lock while reading cpu usage becomes easier if the code lived in kernel/sched.c) The patch also modifies the cpu controller not to provide the same accounting information. Tested-by: Balbir Singh <balbir@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Tested the patches on top of 2.6.24-rc3. The patches work fine. Ran some simple tests like cpuspin (spin on the cpu), ran several tasks in the same group and timed them. Compared their time stamps with cpuacct.usage.

Currently things work but there are odd details visible to user space, even when we have a single network namespace. Since we do not cache proc_dir_entry dentries at the moment we can just modify ->lookup to return a different directory inode depending on the network namespace of the process looking at /proc/net, replacing the current technique of using a magic and fragile follow_link method. To accomplish that this patch: - introduces a shadow_proc method to allow different dentries to be returned from proc_lookup. - Removes the old /proc/net follow_link magic - Fixes a weakness in our not caching of proc generic dentries. As shadow_proc uses a task struct to decided which dentry to return we can go back later and fix the proc generic caching without modifying any code that uses the shadow_proc method.
