This is the second half of the changes to make the irq_desc_ptrs be variable sized based on nr_cpu_ids. This is done by adding a new "max_nr_irqs" macro to irq_vectors.h (and a dummy in irqnr.h) to return a max NR_IRQS value based on NR_CPUS or nr_cpu_ids. This necessitated moving the define of MAX_IO_APICS to a separate file (asm/apicnum.h) so it could be included without the baggage of the other asm/apicdef.h declarations.

As Yinghai pointed out, init_copy_one_irq_desc() copies the old desc to the new desc overwriting the cpumask pointers. Since the old_desc and the cpumask pointers are freed, then memory corruption will occur if these old pointers are used. Move the allocation of these pointers to after the copy.

Replace the affinity and pending_masks with cpumask_var_t's. This adds to the significant size reduction done with the SPARSE_IRQS changes. The added functions (init_alloc_desc_masks & init_copy_desc_masks) are in the include file so they can be inlined (and optimized out for the !CONFIG_CPUMASKS_OFFSTACK case.) [Naming chosen to be consistent with the other init*irq functions, as well as the backwards arg declaration of "from, to" instead of the more common "to, from" standard.] Includes a slight change to the declaration of struct irq_desc to embed the pending_mask within ifdef(CONFIG_SMP) to be consistent with other references, and some small changes to Xen.

This is a very simple implementation with a couple of drawbacks: 1) a thread may legitimately use exactly up to the last word on the stack -- but the chances of doing this and then oopsing later seem slim 2) it's possible that the stack usage isn't dense enough that the canary location could get skipped over -- but the worst that happens is that we don't flag the overrun -- though this happens fairly often in my testing :( With the code in place, an intentionally-bloated stack oops might do: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff8103f84cc680 IP: [<ffffffff810253df>] update_curr+0x9a/0xa8 PGD 8063 PUD 0 Thread overran stack or stack corrupted Oops: 0000 [1] SMP CPU 0 ... ... unless the stack overrun is so bad that it corrupts some other thread.

| * | | | | | | | stackprotector: turn not having the right gcc into a #warningArjan van de Ven2008-05-26

This patch adds a warning message for this scenario. This warning accomplishes two goals 1) the user is informed that the security option he selective isn't available 2) the user is suggested to turn of the CONFIG option that won't work for him, and would make the runtime test fail anyway.

In the DMA_MEMORY_EXCLUSIVE case falling back on generic memory is not an option, as it tends not to be addressable by the DMA hardware in question. This issue showed up with the 8139too breakage on the Dreamcast, where non-addressable buffers were silently allocated due to the size mismatch calculation -- while it should have simply errored out upon being unable to satisfy the allocation with the given device constraints. This restores fall back behaviour to what it was before the oversized request change caused multiple regressions. Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>

Unfortunately when this was implemented, the fact the coherent area is tracked in pages rather than bytes was overlooked, which subsequently broke every single dma_alloc_from_coherent() user, forcing the allocation silently through generic memory instead.

Add a debug check to test this theory. If it triggers then it triggers because the resume code calls it with irqs enabled, which is a no-no not just for timekeeping_resume(), but also bad for a number of other resume handlers.
