2008-06-20alpha: resurrect Cypress IDE quirkIvan Kokshaysky
Which was removed in the hope that generic legacy IDE quirk in drivers/pci/probe.c is sufficient for Cypress IDE. It isn't, as this controller has non-standard BAR layout: secondary channel registers are in the BAR0-1 of the second PCI function - not in the BAR2-3 of the same function, as the generic quirk routine assumes.

2008-06-20alpha: fix compile failures with gcc-4.3 (bug #10438)Ivan Kokshaysky
Vast majority of these build failures are gcc-4.3 warnings about static functions and objects being referenced from non-static (read: "extern inline") functions, in conjunction with our -Werror. We cannot just convert "extern inline" to "static inline", as people keep suggesting all the time, because "extern inline" logic is crucial for generic kernel build. So - just make sure that all callees of critical "extern inline" functions are also "extern inline"; - use "static inline", wherever it's possible. traps.c: work around gcc-4.3 being too smart about array bounds-checking. TODO: add "gnu_inline" attribute to all our "extern inline" functions to ensure desired behaviour with future compilers.

2008-06-20alpha: link failure fixIvan Kokshaysky
With built-in scsi disk driver, the final link fails with a following error: `.exit.text' referenced in section `.rodata' of drivers/built-in.o: defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of drivers/built-in.o This happens with -Os (CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y) with all gcc-4 versions, and also with -O2 and gcc-4.3. The problem is in sd.c:sd_major() being inlined into __exit function exit_sd(), and the compiler generating a jump table in .rodata section for the 'switch' statement in sd_major(). So we have references to discarded section. Fixed with a big hammer in the form of -fno-jump-tables. Note that jump tables vs. discarded sections is a generic problem, other architectures are just lucky not to suffer from it. But with a slightly more complex switch/case statement it can be reproduced on x86 as well. So maybe at some point we should consider -fno-jump-tables as a generic compile option...

2008-06-20Reinstate ZERO_PAGE optimization in 'get_user_pages()' and fix XIPLinus Torvalds
KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki and Oleg Nesterov point out that since the commit 557ed1fa2620dc119adb86b34c614e152a629a80 ("remove ZERO_PAGE") removed the ZERO_PAGE from the VM mappings, any users of get_user_pages() will generally now populate the VM with real empty pages needlessly. We used to get the ZERO_PAGE when we did the "handle_mm_fault()", but since fault handling no longer uses ZERO_PAGE for new anonymous pages, we now need to handle that special case in follow_page() instead. In particular, the removal of ZERO_PAGE effectively removed the core file writing optimization where we would skip writing pages that had not been populated at all, and increased memory pressure a lot by allocating all those useless newly zeroed pages. This reinstates the optimization by making the unmapped PTE case the same as for a non-existent page table, which already did this correctly. While at it, this also fixes the XIP case for follow_page(), where the caller could not differentiate between the case of a page that simply could not be used (because it had no "struct page" associated with it) and a page that just wasn't mapped. We do that by simply returning an error pointer for pages that could not be turned into a "struct page *". The error is arbitrarily picked to be EFAULT, since that was what get_user_pages() already used for the equivalent IO-mapped page case. [ Also removed an impossible test for pte_offset_map_lock() failing: that's not how that function works ] Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Acked-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-06-19x86, 32-bit: fix boot failure on TSC-less processorsMikael Pettersson
Booting 2.6.26-rc6 on my 486 DX/4 fails with a "BUG: Int 6" (invalid opcode) and a kernel halt immediately after the kernel has been uncompressed. The BUG shows EIP pointing to an rdtsc instruction in native_read_tsc(), invoked from native_sched_clock(). (This error occurs so early that not even the serial console can capture it.) A bisection showed that this bug first occurs in 2.6.26-rc3-git7, via commit 9ccc906c97e34fd91dc6aaf5b69b52d824386910: >x86: distangle user disabled TSC from unstable > >tsc_enabled is set to 0 from the command line switch "notsc" and from >the mark_tsc_unstable code. Seperate those functionalities and replace >tsc_enable with tsc_disable. This makes also the native_sched_clock() >decision when to use TSC understandable. > >Preparatory patch to solve the sched_clock() issue on 32 bit. > >Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> The core reason for this bug is that native_sched_clock() gets called before tsc_init(). Before the commit above, tsc_32.c used a "tsc_enabled" variable which defaulted to 0 == disabled, and which only got enabled late in tsc_init(). Thus early calls to native_sched_clock() would skip the TSC and use jiffies instead. After the commit above, tsc_32.c uses a "tsc_disabled" variable which defaults to 0, meaning that the TSC is Ok to use. Early calls to native_sched_clock() now erroneously try to use the TSC on !cpu_has_tsc processors, leading to invalid opcode exceptions. My proposed fix is to initialise tsc_disabled to a "soft disabled" state distinct from the hard disabled state set up by the "notsc" kernel option. This fixes the native_sched_clock() problem. It also allows tsc_init() to be simplified: instead of setting tsc_disabled = 1 on every error return, we just set tsc_disabled = 0 once when all checks have succeeded. I've verified that this lets my 486 boot again. I've also verified that a Core2 machine still uses the TSC as clocksource after the patch.

Somehow (as described below) TS_USEDFPU is set but the fpu is not allocated or freed. Another possible FPU pre-emption issue with the sleazy FPU optimization which was benign before but not so anymore, with the dynamic FPU allocation patch. New task is getting exec'd and it is prempted at the below point. flush_thread() { ... /* * Forget coprocessor state.. */ clear_fpu(tsk); <----- Preemption point clear_used_math(); ... } Now when it context switches in again, as the used_math() is still set and fpu_counter can be > 5, we will do a math_state_restore() which sets the task's TS_USEDFPU. After it continues from the above preemption point it does clear_used_math() and much later free_thread_xstate(). Now, at the next context switch, it is quite possible that xstate is null, used_math() is not set and TS_USEDFPU is still set. This will trigger unlazy_fpu() causing kernel oops. Fix this by clearing tsk's fpu_counter before clearing task's fpu.

2008-06-18[POWERPC] Clear sub-page HPTE present bits when demoting page sizePaul Mackerras
When we demote a slice from 64k to 4k, and we are about to insert an HPTE for a 4k subpage and we notice that there is an existing 64k HPTE, we first invalidate that HPTE before inserting the new 4k subpage HPTE. Since the bits that encode which hash bucket the old HPTE was in overlap with the bits that encode which of the 16 subpages have HPTEs, we need to clear out the subpage HPTE-present bits before starting to insert HPTEs for the 4k subpages. If we don't do that, we can erroneously think that a subpage already has an HPTE when it doesn't. That in itself wouldn't be such a problem except that when we go to update the HPTE that we think is present on machines with a hypervisor, the hypervisor can tell us that the HPTE we think is there is actually there even though it isn't, which can lead to a process getting stuck in a loop, continually faulting. The reason for the confusion is that the AVPN (abbreviated virtual page number) we are looking for in the HPTE for a 4k subpage can actually match the AVPN in a stale HPTE for another 64k page. For example, the HPTE for the 4k subpage at 0x84000f000 will be in the same hash bucket and have the same AVPN as the HPTE for the 64k page at 0x8400f0000. This fixes the code to clear out the subpage HPTE-present bits. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2008-06-17x86-64: Fix "bytes left to copy" return value for copy_from_user()Linus Torvalds
Most users by far do not care about the exact return value (they only really care about whether the copy succeeded in its entirety or not), but a few special core routines actually care deeply about exactly how many bytes were copied from user space. And the unrolled versions of the x86-64 user copy routines would sometimes report that it had copied more bytes than it actually had. Very few uses actually have partial copies to begin with, but to make this bug even harder to trigger, most x86 CPU's use the "rep string" instructions for normal user copies, and that version didn't have this issue. To make it even harder to hit, the one user of this that really cared about the return value (and used the uncached version of the copy that doesn't use the "rep string" instructions) was the generic write routine, which pre-populated its source, once more hiding the problem by avoiding the exception case that triggers the bug. In other words, very special thanks to Bron Gondwana who not only triggered this, but created a test-program to show it, and bisected the behavior down to commit 08291429cfa6258c4cd95d8833beb40f828b194e ("mm: fix pagecache write deadlocks") which changed the access pattern just enough that you can now trigger it with 'writev()' with multiple iovec's. That commit itself was not the cause of the bug, it just allowed all the stars to align just right that you could trigger the problem. [ Side note: this is just the minimal fix to make the copy routines (with __copy_from_user_inatomic_nocache as the particular version that was involved in showing this) have the right return values. We really should improve on the exceptional case further - to make the copy do a byte-accurate copy up to the exact page limit that causes it to fail. As it is, the callers have to do extra work to handle the limit case gracefully. ] Reported-by: Bron Gondwana <brong@fastmail.fm> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> (which didn't have this problem), and since most users that do the carethis was very hard to trigger, but

Here is the list of notable corresponding updates to the configuration: 1. CPU_SB1_PASS_2_2 is now selected rather than CPU_SB1_PASS_1. The latter requires a non-standard -msb1-pass1-workarounds option to be supported by GCC and I am told is quite rare anyway. [Ralf: Afaik -msb1-pass1-workarounds is available only in Monta Vista's special Sibyte gcc 3.0 variant and gcc 3.0 is too old to build a modern kernel anyway.] 2. PHYLIB and BROADCOM_PHY are both built in and NETDEV_1000 enabled as required by SB1250_MAC. 3. USB and USB_OHCI_HCD are enabled as there is an OHCI chip onboard. 4.

GCC 4.4.x looks to be adding support for generating out-of-line register saves/restores based on: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-04/msg01678.html This breaks the kernel if we enable CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE. To fix this we add the use the save/restore code from gcc and simplified it down for our needs (integer only). Additionally, we have to link this code into each module. The other solution was to add EXPORT_SYMBOL() which meant going through the trampoline which seemed nonsensical for these out-of-line routines. Finally, we add some checks to prom_init_check.sh to ignore the out-of-line save/restore functions.

2008-06-16[POWERPC] Fix bootwrapper builds with newer gcc versionsKumar Gala
GCC 4.4.x looks to be adding support for generating out-of-line register saves/restores based on: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-04/msg01678.html This breaks the bootwrapper as we'd need to link with libgcc to get the implementation of the register save/restores. To workaround this issue, we just stole the save/restore code from gcc and simplified it down for our needs (integer only).

2008-06-16[POWERPC] Add missing of_node_put in pseries/nvram.cJulia Lawall
of_node_put is needed before discarding a value received from of_find_node_by_type, eg in error handling code. The semantic patch that makes the change is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @@ struct device_node *n; struct device_node *n1; struct device_node *n2; statement S; identifier f1,f2; expression E1,E2; constant C; @@ n = of_find_node_by_type(...) ... if (!n) S ... when != of_node_put(n) when != n1 = f1(n,...) when != E1 = n when any when strict ( + of_node_put(n); return -C; | of_node_put(n); | n2 = f2(n,...) | E2 = n | return ...; ) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Acked-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2008-06-16powerpc/spufs: fix missed stop-and-signal eventLuke Browning
There is a delay in the transition to the stopped state for class 2 interrupts. In some cases, the controlling thread detects the state of the spu as running, and goes back to sleep resulting in a hung application as the event is missed. This change detects the stop condition and re-generates the wakeup event after a context save. Signed-off-by: Luke Browning <lukebrowning@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org>

This change uses the the spu's register_lock to enforce synchronization between bind/unbind and spu exception handling so that they are mutually exclusive.
