commit 3c75296562f43e6fbc6cddd3de948a7b3e4e9bcf upstream.
This fixes a problem which can causes kernel oopses while loading
a kernel module.
According to the PowerPC EABI specification, GPR r11 is assigned
the dedicated function to point to the previous stack frame.
In the powerpc-specific kernel module loader, do_plt_call()
(in arch/powerpc/kernel/module_32.c), GPR r11 is also used
to generate trampoline code.
This combination crashes the kernel, in the case where the compiler
chooses to use a helper function for saving GPRs on entry, and the
module loader has placed the .init.text section far away from the
.text section, meaning that it has to generate a trampoline for
functions in the .init.text section to call the GPR save helper.
Because the trampoline trashes r11, references to the stack frame
using r11 can cause an oops.
The fix just uses GPR r12 instead of GPR r11 for generating the
trampoline code. According to the statements from Freescale, this is
safe from an EABI perspective.
I've tested the fix for kernel 2.6.33 on MPC8541.

commit 9a45a9407c69d068500923480884661e2b9cc421 upstream.
perf on POWER stopped working after commit e050e3f0a71b (perf: Fix
broken interrupt rate throttling). That patch exposed a bug in
the POWER perf_events code.
Since the PMCs count upwards and take an exception when the top bit
is set, we want to write 0x80000000 - left in power_pmu_start. We were
instead programming in left which effectively disables the counter
until we eventually hit 0x80000000. This could take seconds or longer.
With the patch applied I get the expected number of samples:

commit e4f387d8db3ba3c2dae4d8bdfe7bb5f4fe1bcb0d upstream.
Unpaired calling of probe_hcall_entry and probe_hcall_exit might happen
as following, which could cause incorrect preempt count.
__trace_hcall_entry => trace_hcall_entry -> probe_hcall_entry =>
get_cpu_var => preempt_disable
__trace_hcall_exit => trace_hcall_exit -> probe_hcall_exit =>
put_cpu_var => preempt_enable
where:
A => B and A -> B means A calls B, but
=> means A will call B through function name, and B will definitely be
called.
-> means A will call B through function pointer, so B might not be
called if the function pointer is not set.
So error happens when only one of probe_hcall_entry and probe_hcall_exit
get called during a hcall.
This patch tries to move the preempt count operations from
probe_hcall_entry and probe_hcall_exit to its callers.

commit 37fb9a0231ee43d42d069863bdfd567fca2b61af upstream.
When re-enabling interrupts we have code to handle edge sensitive
decrementers by resetting the decrementer to 1 whenever it is negative.
If interrupts were disabled long enough that the decrementer wrapped to
positive we do nothing. This means interrupts can be delayed for a long
time until it finally goes negative again.
While we hope interrupts are never be disabled long enough for the
decrementer to go positive, we have a very good test team that can
drive any kernel into the ground. The softlockup data we get back
from these fails could be seconds in the future, completely missing
the cause of the lockup.
We already keep track of the timebase of the next event so use that
to work out if we should trigger a decrementer exception.

commit d715e433b7ad19c02fc4becf0d5e9a59f97925de upstream.
kdump fails because we try to execute an HV only instruction. Feature
fixups are being applied after we copy the exception vectors down to 0
so they miss out on any updates.
We have always had this issue but it only became critical in v3.0
when we added CFAR support (breaks POWER5) and v3.1 when we added
POWERNV (breaks everyone).

commit 72f3bea075287785ed32b777b6dd2636aa7002e8 upstream.
Fixes the PS3 bootup hang introduced in 3.0-rc1 by:
commit 317f394160e9beb97d19a84c39b7e5eb3d7815a
sched: Move the second half of ttwu() to the remote cpu
Move the PS3's LV1 EOI call lv1_end_of_interrupt_ext() from ps3_chip_eoi()
to ps3_get_irq() for IPI messages.
If lv1_send_event_locally() is called between a previous call to
lv1_send_event_locally() and the coresponding call to
lv1_end_of_interrupt_ext() the second event will not be delivered to the
target cpu.
The PS3's SMP IPIs are implemented using lv1_send_event_locally(), so if two
IPI messages of the same type are sent to the same target in a relatively
short period of time the second IPI event can become lost when
lv1_end_of_interrupt_ext() is called from ps3_chip_eoi().

commit 8feaa43494cee5e938fd5a57b9e9bf1c827e6ccd upstream.
Since commit 188917e183cf9ad0374b571006d0fc6d48a7f447, /proc/ppc64 is a
symlink to /proc/powerpc/. That means that creating /proc/ppc64/eeh will
end up with a unaccessible file, that is not listed under /proc/powerpc/
and, then, not listed under /proc/ppc64/.
Creating /proc/powerpc/eeh fixes that problem and maintain the
compatibility intended with the ppc64 symlink.

commit 6083184269fd723affca4f6340e491950267622a upstream.

commit 405e44f2e312dd5dd63e5a9f459bffcbcd4368ef upstream.
"page" may have changed to point to the next hugepage after the loop
completed, The references have been taken on the head page, so the
put_page must happen there too.
This is a longstanding issue pre-thp inclusion.
It's totally unclear how these page_cache_add_speculative and
pte_val(pte) != pte_val(*ptep) checks are necessary across all the
powerpc gup_fast code, when x86 doesn't need any of that: there's no way
the page can be freed with irq disabled so we're guaranteed the
atomic_inc will happen on a page with page_count > 0 (so not needing the
speculative check).
The pte check is also meaningless on x86: no need to rollback on x86 if
the pte changed, because the pte can still change a CPU tick after the
check succeeded and it won't be rolled back in that case. The important
thing is we got a reference on a valid page that was mapped there a CPU
tick ago. So not knowing the soft tlb refill code of ppc64 in great
detail I'm not removing the "speculative" page_count increase and the
pte checks across all the code, but unless there's a strong reason for
it they should be later cleaned up too.
If a pte can change from huge to non-huge (like it could happen with
THP) passing a pte_t *ptep to gup_hugepte() would also require to repeat
the is_hugepd in gup_hugepte(), but that shouldn't happen with hugetlbfs
only so I'm not altering that.

commit 2839bdc1bfc0af76a2f0f11eca011590520a04fa upstream.
This part of gup_fast doesn't seem capable of handling hugetlbfs ptes,
those should be handled by gup_hugepd only, so these checks are
superfluous.
Plus if this wasn't a noop, it would have oopsed because, the insistence
of using the speculative refcounting would trigger a VM_BUG_ON if a tail
page was encountered in the page_cache_get_speculative().

commit 70b50f94f1644e2aa7cb374819cfd93f3c28d725 upstream.
Michel while working on the working set estimation code, noticed that
calling get_page_unless_zero() on a random pfn_to_page(random_pfn)
wasn't safe, if the pfn ended up being a tail page of a transparent
hugepage under splitting by __split_huge_page_refcount().
He then found the problem could also theoretically materialize with
page_cache_get_speculative() during the speculative radix tree lookups
that uses get_page_unless_zero() in SMP if the radix tree page is freed
and reallocated and get_user_pages is called on it before
page_cache_get_speculative has a chance to call get_page_unless_zero().
So the best way to fix the problem is to keep page_tail->_count zero at
all times. This will guarantee that get_page_unless_zero() can never
succeed on any tail page. page_tail->_mapcount is guaranteed zero and
is unused for all tail pages of a compound page, so we can simply
account the tail page references there and transfer them to
tail_page->_count in __split_huge_page_refcount() (in addition to the
head_page->_mapcount).
While debugging this s/_count/_mapcount/ change I also noticed get_page is
called by direct-io.c on pages returned by get_user_pages. That wasn't
entirely safe because the two atomic_inc in get_page weren't atomic. As
opposed to other get_user_page users like secondary-MMU page fault to
establish the shadow pagetables would never call any superflous get_page
after get_user_page returns. It's safer to make get_page universally safe
for tail pages and to use get_page_foll() within follow_page (inside
get_user_pages()). get_page_foll() is safe to do the refcounting for tail
pages without taking any locks because it is run within PT lock protected
critical sections (PT lock for pte and page_table_lock for
pmd_trans_huge).
The standard get_page() as invoked by direct-io instead will now take
the compound_lock but still only for tail pages. The direct-io paths
are usually I/O bound and the compound_lock is per THP so very
finegrined, so there's no risk of scalability issues with it. A simple
direct-io benchmarks with all lockdep prove locking and spinlock
debugging infrastructure enabled shows identical performance and no
overhead. So it's worth it. Ideally direct-io should stop calling
get_page() on pages returned by get_user_pages(). The spinlock in
get_page() is already optimized away for no-THP builds but doing
get_page() on tail pages returned by GUP is generally a rare operation
and usually only run in I/O paths.
This new refcounting on page_tail->_mapcount in addition to avoiding new
RCU critical sections will also allow the working set estimation code to
work without any further complexity associated to the tail page
refcounting with THP.

commit 966728dd88b4026ec58fee169ccceaeaf56ef120 upstream.
I have a box that fails in OF during boot with:
DEFAULT CATCH!, exception-handler=fff00400
at %SRR0: 49424d2c4c6f6768 %SRR1: 800000004000b002
ie "IBM,Logh". OF got corrupted with a device tree string.
Looking at make_room and alloc_up, we claim the first chunk (1 MB)
but we never claim any more. mem_end is always set to alloc_top
which is the top of our available address space, guaranteeing we will
never call alloc_up and claim more memory.
Also alloc_up wasn't setting alloc_bottom to the bottom of the
available address space.
This doesn't help the box to boot, but we at least fail with
an obvious error. We could relocate the device tree in a future
patch.

commit 4f8b50bbbe63ae4ec6bea28a90a9a603c745ea71 upstream.
Commit e360adbe29 ("irq_work: Add generic hardirq context
callbacks") fouled up the ppc bit, not properly naming the
arch specific function that raises the 'self-IPI'.

Just compiling pseries in the kernel causes it to override
memory_block_size_bytes() regardless of what is the runtime
platform.
This cleans up the implementation of that function, fixing
a bug or two while at it, so that it's harmless (and potentially
useful) for other platforms. Without this, bugs in that code
would trigger a WARN_ON() in drivers/base/memory.c when
booting some different platforms.
If/when we have another platform supporting memory hotplug we
might want to either move that out to a generic place or
make it a ppc_md. callback.

Don't use printk_ratelimit() as an additional condition for returning
on an error. Because when the ratelimit is reached, printk_ratelimit
will return 0 and e.g. in rtas_get_boot_time won't check for an error
condition.

commit 21a3c96 uses node_start/end_pfn(nid) for detection start/end
of nodes. But, it's not defined in linux/mmzone.h but defined in
/arch/???/include/mmzone.h which is included only under
CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES=y.
Then, we see
mm/page_cgroup.c: In function 'page_cgroup_init':
mm/page_cgroup.c:308: error: implicit declaration of function 'node_start_pfn'
mm/page_cgroup.c:309: error: implicit declaration of function 'node_end_pfn'
So, fixiing page_cgroup.c is an idea...
But node_start_pfn()/node_end_pfn() is a very generic macro and
should be implemented in the same manner for all archs.
(m32r has different implementation...)
This patch removes definitions of node_start/end_pfn() in each archs
and defines a unified one in linux/mmzone.h. It's not under
CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES, now.
A result of macro expansion is here (mm/page_cgroup.c)
for !NUMA
start_pfn = ((&contig_page_data)->node_start_pfn);
end_pfn = ({ pg_data_t *__pgdat = (&contig_page_data); __pgdat->node_start_pfn + __pgdat->node_spanned_pages;});
for NUMA (x86-64)
start_pfn = ((node_data[nid])->node_start_pfn);
end_pfn = ({ pg_data_t *__pgdat = (node_data[nid]); __pgdat->node_start_pfn + __pgdat->node_spanned_pages;});
Changelog:
- fixed to avoid using "nid" twice in node_end_pfn() macro.

The wrong MCSR bit was being used on e500mc. MCSR_BUS_RBERR only exists
on e500v1/v2. Use MCSR_LD on e500mc, and remove all MCSR checking
in fsl_rio_mcheck_exception as we now no longer call that function
if the appropriate bit in MCSR is not set.
If RIO support was enabled at compile-time, but was never probed, just
return from fsl_rio_mcheck_exception rather than dereference a NULL
pointer.
TODO: There is still a remaining, though comparitively minor, issue in
that this recovery mechanism will falsely engage if there's an unrelated
MCSR_LD event at the same time as a RIO error.

On the Freescale P1022DS reference board, the SSI audio controller is
connected in "asynchronous" mode to the codec's clocks, so the device tree
needs an "fsl,ssi-asynchronous" property.
Also remove the clock-frequency property from the wm8776 node, because
the clock is enabled only if U-Boot enables it, and U-Boot will set the
property if the clock is enabled. A future version of the P1022DS audio
driver will configure the clock itself, but for now, the driver should
not be told that the clock is running when it isn't.
Also fix the FIFO depth to 15, instead of 16.

When using 64K pages with a separate cpio rootfs, U-Boot will align
the rootfs on a 4K page boundary. When the memory is reserved, and
subsequent early memblock_alloc is called, it will allocate memory
between the 64K page alignment and reserved memory. When the reserved
memory is subsequently freed, it is done so by pages, causing the
early memblock_alloc requests to be re-used, which in my case, caused
the device-tree to be clobbered.
This patch forces the reserved memory for initrd to be kernel page
aligned, and will move the device tree if it overlaps with the range
extension of initrd. This patch will also consolidate the identical
function free_initrd_mem() from mm/init_32.c, init_64.c to mm/mem.c,
and adds the same range extension when freeing initrd. free_initrd_mem()
is also moved to the __init section.
Many thanks to Milton Miller for his input on this patch.

* setns:
ns: Wire up the setns system call
Done as a merge to make it easier to fix up conflicts in arm due to
addition of sendmmsg system call
|
|
32bit and 64bit on x86 are tested and working. The rest I have looked
at closely and I can't find any problems.
setns is an easy system call to wire up. It just takes two ints so I
don't expect any weird architecture porting problems.
While doing this I have noticed that we have some architectures that are
very slow to get new system calls. cris seems to be the slowest where
the last system calls wired up were preadv and pwritev. avr32 is weird
in that recvmmsg was wired up but never declared in unistd.h. frv is
behind with perf_event_open being the last syscall wired up. On h8300
the last system call wired up was epoll_wait. On m32r the last system
call wired up was fallocate. mn10300 has recvmmsg as the last system
call wired up. The rest seem to at least have syncfs wired up which was
new in the 2.6.39.
v2: Most of the architecture support added by Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com>
v3: ported to v2.6.36-rc4 by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
v4: Moved wiring up of the system call to another patch
v5: ported to v2.6.39-rc6
v6: rebased onto parisc-next and net-next to avoid syscall conflicts.
v7: ported to Linus's latest post 2.6.39 tree.

The ns_cgroup is an annoying cgroup at the namespace / cgroup frontier and
leads to some problems:
* cgroup creation is out-of-control
* cgroup name can conflict when pids are looping
* it is not possible to have a single process handling a lot of
namespaces without falling in a exponential creation time
* we may want to create a namespace without creating a cgroup
The ns_cgroup was replaced by a compatibility flag 'clone_children',
where a newly created cgroup will copy the parent cgroup values.
The userspace has to manually create a cgroup and add a task to
the 'tasks' file.
This patch removes the ns_cgroup as suggested in the following thread:
https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/containers/2009-June/018616.html
The 'cgroup_clone' function is removed because it is no longer used.
This is a userspace-visible change. Commit 45531757b45c ("cgroup: notify
ns_cgroup deprecated") (merged into 2.6.27) caused the kernel to emit a
printk warning users that the feature is planned for removal. Since that
time we have heard from XXX users who were affected by this.
