2d58cc9 Jeff Dike 07 May 2005, 04:30:55 UTC [PATCH] uml: x86_64 fixes This fixes some x86_64 bugs - - maybe_map returns -1 on error instead of 0, which is interpreted as physical address 0 - removed an include of ipc.h, which isn't needed - fixed the calculation of signal frame location - the signal delivery code is now immune to the stack expansion check - added a missing include Signed-off-by: Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com> Cc: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> 07 May 2005, 05:09:31 UTC
0f7e663 Bodo Stroesser 07 May 2005, 04:30:54 UTC [PATCH] uml: Fix process exit race tt-mode closes switch_pipes in exit_thread_tt and kills processes in switch_to_tt, if the exit_state is EXIT_DEAD or EXIT_ZOMBIE. In very rare cases the exiting process can be scheduled out after having set exit_state and closed switch_pipes (from release_task it calls proc_pid_flush, which might sleep). If this process is to be restarted, UML failes in switch_to_tt with: write of switch_pipe failed, err = 9 We fix this by closing switch_pipes not in exit_thread_tt, but later in release_thread_tt. Additionally, we set switch_pipe[0] = 0 after closing. switch_to_tt must not kill "from" process depending on its exit_state, but must kill it after release_thread was processed only, so it examines switch_pipe[0] for its decision.

82c1c11 Bodo Stroesser 07 May 2005, 04:30:46 UTC [PATCH] uml: S390 preparation, peekusr/pokeusr defined by subarch s390 needs to change some parts of arch/um/kernel/ptrace.c. Thus, the code regarding PEEKUSER and POKEUSER are shifted to arch/um/sys-<subarch>/ptrace.c. Also s390 debug registers need to be updated, when singlestepping is switched on / off. Thus, setting/resetting of singlestepping is centralized in the new function set_singlestep(), which also inserts the macro SUBARCH_SET_SINGLESTEP(mode), if defined. Finally, s390 has the "ieee_instruction_pointer" in its registers, which also is allowed to be read via ptrace( PTRACE_PEEKUSER, getpid(), PT_IEEE_IP, 0); To implement this feature, sys_ptrace inserts the macro SUBARCH_PTRACE_SPECIAL, if defined.

Changes: (bttv-i2c.diff) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ o Changed the custom wait queue to wait_event_interruptible_timeout() - Suggestion by Johannes Stezenbach. o Fixed the wait queue timeout problem - This fixes the timeout problem on various cards. - This problem was visible as many * Cannot tune to channels, when signal levels are very low. * app_info does not work in some conditions for CI based cards - Smaller values worked good for newer cards, but the older cards suffered, settled down to the worst case values that could happen in any eventuality.

It's based on the GPLed idac320 driver from IBM for Linux 2.4.18. That driver is a fork of the 2.4.18 version of DAC960 that adds support for this new type of controllers (internally called "GEM Series"), that differ from other DAC960 V2 firmware controllers only in the register offsets and removes support for all others. This patch instead integrates support for these controllers into the DAC960 driver. Thanks to Anders Norrbring for pointing me to the idac320 driver and testing this patch. No Signed-Off: line because all code is either copy & pasted from IBM's idac320 driver or support for other controllers in the 2.6 DAC960 driver. Note: the really odd formating matches the rest of the DAC960 driver.

b7e4e85 Paulo Marques 05 May 2005, 23:15:49 UTC [PATCH] setitimer timer expires too early It seems that the code responsible for this is in kernel/itimer.c:126: p->signal->real_timer.expires = jiffies + interval; add_timer(&p->signal->real_timer); If you request an interval of, lets say 900 usecs, the interval given by timeval_to_jiffies will be 1. If you request this when we are half-way between two timer ticks, the interval will only give 400 usecs. If we want to guarantee that we never ever give intervals less than requested, the simple solution would be to change that to: p->signal->real_timer.expires = jiffies + interval + 1; This however will produce pathological cases, like having a idle system being requested 1 ms timeouts will give systematically 2 ms timeouts, whereas currently it simply gives a few usecs less than 1 ms. The complex (and more computationally expensive) solution would be to check the gettimeofday time, and compute the correct number of jiffies. This way, if we request a 300 usecs timer 200 usecs inside the timer tick, we can wait just one tick, but not if we are 800 usecs inside the tick. This would also mean that we would have to lock preemption during these computations to avoid races, etc. I've searched the archives but couldn't find this particular issue being discussed before. Attached is a patch to do the simple solution, in case anybody thinks that it should be used.

What would happen is the following: 2 threads doing __mpage_writepages on the same page. Thread 1 - lock the page first, and enter __block_write_full_page. Thread 1 - (eg.) mark_buffer_async_write on the first 2 buffers. Thread 1 - set page writeback, unlock page. Thread 2 - lock page, wait on page writeback Thread 1 - submit_bh on the first 2 buffers. => both requests complete, none of the page buffers are async_write, end_page_writeback is called. Thread 2 - wakes up. enters __block_write_full_page. Thread 2 - mark_buffer_async_write on (eg.) the last buffer Thread 1 - finds the last buffer has async_write set, submit_bh on that. Thread 2 - submit_bh on the last buffer. => oops. So change __block_write_full_page to explicitly keep track of the last bh we need to issue, so we don't touch anything after issuing the last request.

cd2ee4a Jeff Dike 05 May 2005, 23:15:32 UTC [PATCH] uml: Fix SIGWINCH relaying This makes SIGWINCH work again, and fixes a couple of SIGWINCH-associated crashes. First, the sigio thread disables SIGWINCH because all hell breaks loose if it ever gets one and tries to call the signal handling code. Second, there was a problem with deferencing tty structs after they were freed. The SIGWINCH support for a tty wasn't being turned off or freed after the tty went away.

c578455 Bodo Stroesser 05 May 2005, 23:15:31 UTC [PATCH] uml: S390 preparation, abstract host page fault data This patch removes the arch-specific fault/trap-infos from thread and skas-regs. It adds a new struct faultinfo, that is arch-specific defined in sysdep/faultinfo.h. The structure is inserted in thread.arch and thread.regs.skas and thread.regs.tt Now, segv and other trap-handlers can copy the contents from regs.X.faultinfo to thread.arch.faultinfo with one simple assignment. Also, the number of macros necessary is reduced to FAULT_ADDRESS(struct faultinfo) extracts the faulting address from faultinfo FAULT_WRITE(struct faultinfo) extracts the "is_write" flag SEGV_IS_FIXABLE(struct faultinfo) is true for the fixable segvs, i.e. (TRAP == 14) on i386 UPT_FAULTINFO(regs) result is (struct faultinfo *) to the faultinfo in regs->skas.faultinfo GET_FAULTINFO_FROM_SC(struct faultinfo, struct sigcontext *) copies the relevant parts of the sigcontext to struct faultinfo. On SIGSEGV, call user_signal() instead of handle_segv(), if the architecture provides the information needed in PTRACE_FAULTINFO, or if PTRACE_FAULTINFO is missing, because segv-stub will provide the info. The benefit of the change is, that in case of a non-fixable SIGSEGV, we can give user processes a SIGSEGV, instead of possibly looping on pagefault handling. Since handle_segv() sikked arch_fixup() implicitly by passing ip==0 to segv(), I changed segv() to call arch_fixup() only, if !is_user.

Instead of expecting that mk_user_constants (compiled and executed on the build box) will see the sizeof, etc. for target box, we do what every architecture already does for asm-offsets. Namely, have user-offsets.c compiled *for* *target* into user-offsets.s and sed it into the header with relevant constants. We don't need to reinvent any wheels - all tools are already there. This patch deals with mk_user_constants. It doesn't assume any relationship between target and build environment anymore - we pick all defines we need from user-offsets.h. Later patches will deal with the rest of mk_... helpers in the same way.
