| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The recent changes in the genirq core unearthed a bug in arch/um which called enable_irq() before the interrupt was set up.

But this reordering moved the jump label mutex into a preempt disable location. This patch does a little fiddling to move the grabbing of the jump label mutex from inside the preempt disable section and still keep the order correct between the mutex and the kprobes lock.

However, the jump label code takes those mutexes in the reverse order. Fix by requiring the caller of jump_label_text_reserved() to do the jump label locking via the newly added: jump_label_lock(), jump_label_unlock(). Currently, kprobes is the only user of jump_label_text_reserved().

| * | | | jump label: Fix module __init section raceJason Baron2010-10-28

However, between the check for a valid module __init section and the subsequent jump label update, the module's __init section could be freed out from under us. We fix this potential race by adding a notifier callback to the MODULE_STATE_LIVE state. This notifier is called *after* the __init section has been run but before it is going to be freed. In the callback, the jump label code zeros the key value for any __init jump code within the module, and we add a check for a non-zero key value when we update jump labels. In this way we require no additional data structures. Thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers for pointing out this race condition.

Solve this by acquiring a reference to the task struct under rcu_read_lock and call tty_audit_push_task outside of the preempt disabled region. Move all code which needs to be protected by sighand lock into tty_audit_push_task() and use lock/unlock_sighand as we do not hold tasklist_lock.

When we allocate space from a resource, we look for gaps between children of the resource. Previously, we always looked at gaps from the bottom up. For example, given this: [mem 0xbff00000-0xf7ffffff] PCI Bus 0000:00 [mem 0xbff00000-0xbfffffff] gap -- available [mem 0xc0000000-0xdfffffff] PCI Bus 0000:02 [mem 0xe0000000-0xf7ffffff] gap -- available we attempted to allocate from the [mem 0xbff00000-0xbfffffff] gap first, then the [mem 0xe0000000-0xf7ffffff] gap. With this patch an architecture can choose to allocate from the top gap [mem 0xe0000000-0xf7ffffff] first. We can't do this across the board because iomem_resource.end is initialized to 0xffffffff_ffffffff on 64-bit architectures, and most machines can't address the entire 64-bit physical address space. Therefore, we only allocate top-down if the arch requests it by clearing "resource_alloc_from_bottom".

But this condition is racey (in the sense that we can add a unnecessary time extend, but nothing that can break anything). We later check if the time or event time delta should be zero or have real data in it (not racey), making this first check redundant. This check may help save space once in a while, but really is not worth the hassle to try to save some space that happens at most 134 ms at a time. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

This is due to events only having a 27 bit field to store time. Currently this time extend is a separate event. We add it just before the event data that is being written to the buffer. But before the event data is committed, the event data can also be discarded (as with the case of filters). But because the time extend has already been committed, it will stay in the buffer. If lots of events are being filtered and no event is being written, then every 134ms a time extend can be added to the buffer without any data attached. To keep from filling the entire buffer with time extends, a time extend will never be the first event in a page because the page timestamp can be used. Time extends can only fill the rest of a page with some data at the beginning. This patch binds the time extend with the data. The difference here is that the time extend is not committed before the data is added. Instead, when a time extend is needed, the space reserved on the ring buffer is the time extend + the data event size. The time extend is added to the first part of the reserved block and the data is added to the second. The time extend event is passed back to the reserver, but since the reserver also uses a function to find the data portion of the reserved block, no changes to the ring buffer interface need to be made. When a commit is discarded, we now remove both the time extend and the event. With this approach no more than one time extend can be in the buffer in a row. Data must always follow a time extend. Thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers for suggesting this idea.

Why the tracepoints take two pointers to assign an integer is beyond my comprehension. But adding an extra case which treats the first pointer as an unsigned long when the second pointer is NULL including the back and forth type casting is just horrible. Convert the softirq tracepoints to take a single unsigned int argument for the softirq vector number and fix the call sites.

But the failed event and the remaining events in the group have their timings adjusted as if they had also gone through event_sched_in() and event_sched_out(). This ensures timing uniformity across all events in a group. This also takes care of the tstamp_stopped problem in case the group could never be scheduled. The tstamp_stopped is updated as if the event had actually run. With this patch, the following now reports correct time_enabled, in case the NMI watchdog is active: $ task -e unhalted_core_cycles,instructions_retired,baclears,baclears noploop 1 noploop for 1 seconds 0 unhalted_core_cycles (100.00% scaling, ena=997,552,872, run=0) 0 instructions_retired (100.00% scaling, ena=997,552,872, run=0) 0 baclears (100.00% scaling, ena=997,552,872, run=0) 0 baclears (100.00% scaling, ena=997,552,872, run=0) And the older test case also works: $ task -einstructions_retired,baclears,baclears -e unhalted_core_cycles,baclears,baclears sleep 5 1680885 instructions_retired (69.39% scaling, ena=950756, run=291006) 10735 baclears (69.39% scaling, ena=950756, run=291006) 10735 baclears (69.39% scaling, ena=950756, run=291006) 0 unhalted_core_cycles (100.00% scaling, ena=817932, run=0) 0 baclears (100.00% scaling, ena=817932, run=0) 0 baclears (100.00% scaling, ena=817932, run=0) Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <4cbeeebc.8ee7d80a.5a28.0d5f@mx.google.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
