948ac6d Thomas Gleixner 25 March 2007, 12:42:51 UTC [PATCH] clocksource: Fix thinko in watchdog selection The watchdog implementation excludes low res / non continuous clocksources from being selected as a watchdog reference unintentionally. Allow using jiffies/PIT as a watchdog reference as long as no better clocksource is available. This is necessary to detect TSC breakage on systems, which have no pmtimer/hpet. The main goal of the initial patch (preventing to switch to highres/nohz when no reliable fallback clocksource is available) is still guaranteed by the checks in clocksource_watchdog().

9501b6c Thomas Gleixner 25 March 2007, 12:31:17 UTC [PATCH] dynticks: fix hrtimer rounding error in next_timer_interrupt The rework of next_timer_interrupt() fixed the timer wheel bugs, but invented a rounding error versus the next hrtimer event. This is caused by the conversion of the hrtimer internal representation to relative jiffies. This causes bug #8100: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8100 next_timer_interrupt() returns "now" in such a case and causes the code in tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to trigger the timer softirq, which is bogus as no timer is due for expiry. This results in an endless context switching between idle and ksoftirqd until a timer is due for expiry. Modify the hrtimer evaluation so that, it returns now + 1, when the conversion results in a delta < 1 jiffie. It's confirmed to resolve bug #8100 Reported-by: Emil Karlson <jkarlson@cc.hut.fi> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 25 March 2007, 21:57:34 UTC

53698d2 Guennadi Liakhovetski 22 March 2007, 12:06:55 UTC [ARM] 4278/1: configure pxa27x I2C SCL as "input" It has been reported by Julian Deng that configuring the pxa27x i2c SCL line as output generates a short negative pulse on it during the call to pxa_gpio_mode(GPIO117_I2CSCL_MD); as it first switches it to output and then configures it for the alternate function. The SCL line is in fact bidirectional and can also be configured as 117 | GPIO_ALT_FN_1_IN, in which case the pulse is not generated. This is exactly what this patch does.

d9a5c0a Thomas Gleixner 24 March 2007, 22:02:49 UTC [PATCH] i386: Prevent early access to TSC to avoid crash on TSCless systems commit f9690982b8c2f9a2c65acdc113e758ec356676a3 removed the check for cpu_khz from sched_clock(), which prevented early access to the TSC by non obvious magic. This is harmless as long as the CPU has a TSC. On TSCless systems this results in an illegal instruction trap. Replace tsc_disabled and tsc_unstable by tsc_enabled, which is only set when the tsc is available and not unstable.

f33bc55 Thomas Gleixner 24 March 2007, 00:14:37 UTC [PATCH] x86_64: avoid sending LOCAL_TIMER_VECTOR IPI to itself Ray Lee reported, that on an UP kernel with "noapic" command line option set, the box locks hard during boot. Adding some debug printks revealed, that the last action on the box before stalling was "Send IPI" - a debug printk which was put into smp_send_timer_broadcast_ipi(). It seems that send_IPI_mask(mask, LOCAL_TIMER_VECTOR) fails when "noapic" is set on the command line on an UP kernel. Aside of that it does not make much sense to trigger an interrupt instead of calling the function directly on the CPU which gets the PIT/HPET interrupt in case of broadcasting.

6ea65ff Roland McGrath 23 March 2007, 21:26:33 UTC [PATCH] i386: clear segment register padding in core dumps The segment register slots in struct pt_regs are padded to 32 bits. Some of these are stored with instructions like "pushl %es", which leaves the high 16 bits as they were. So the high bits of these fields in struct pt_regs contain kernel stack garbage. These bits are ignored by everything and never leak to user space, except in core dumps. The user struct pt_regs is always at the base of the thread's kernel stack and so it seems unlikely the information that leaks from here is ever worthwhile so as to be a security concern, but I'm not sure about that. It has been this way for ages; userland consumers of core dumps all mask off these high bits themselves. So it is not urgent. This change masks off the padding bits of the segment register slots in core dumps. ptrace already masks off these high bits, so this makes the values in core dumps consistent with what ptrace would report just before the process died. As I read the processor manuals, the cs and ss values will always be padded with zero bits rather than stack garbage. But unlike "pushl %es", this is not simple to test with a userland program. So I added the two instructions rather than wonder if they are really never necessary. I think that x86_64 does not have this problem (for either 32-bit or 64-bit processes). It only uses "mov" instructions from segment registers, which zero-extend.

ad62ca2 Thomas Gleixner 22 March 2007, 08:11:21 UTC [PATCH] i386: disable local apic timer via command line or dmi quirk The local APIC timer stops to work in deeper C-States. This is handled by the ACPI code and a broadcast mechanism in the clockevents / tick managment code. Some systems do not expose the deeper C-States to the kernel, but switch into deeper C-States behind the kernels back. This delays the local apic timer interrupts for ever and makes the systems unusable. Add a command line option to disable the local apic timer and a dmi quirk for known broken systems.

6b3964c Thomas Gleixner 22 March 2007, 21:46:18 UTC [PATCH] i386: clockevents fix breakage on Geode/Cyrix PIT implementations The PIT has no dedicated mode for shut down. The only way to disable PIT is to put it into one shot mode. AMD implementations of PIT on Geode (also observed on Cyrix) are confused by an "empty" transition from CLOCK_EVT_MODE_UNUSED to CLOCK_EVT_MODE_SHUTDOWN, which puts the PIT into one shot mode momentarily. I realized after staring helpless at the bug report http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8027 for quite a while, that the only change, which might influence the bogomips calibration, is the above transition during the PIT initialization. Avoiding the unnecessary switch to oneshot and later to periodic mode fixes the weird bogomips value and also the resulting slowness. The fix is confirmed on OLPC and another Geode based box.

77d8e1e Michael S. Tsirkin 21 March 2007, 13:45:05 UTC IB/ipoib: Fix thinko in packet length checks The packet length checks in ipoib are broken: we add 4 bytes (IPoIB encapsulation header) when sending a packet, not 20 bytes (hardware address length) to each packet. Therefore, if connected mode is enabled so that the interface MTU is larger than the multicast MTU, IPoIB may end up trying to send too-long multicast packets. For example, multicast is broken if a message of size 2048 bytes is sent on an interface with UD MTU 2048, because 2048 is bigger than the real limit of 2044 but the code tests against the wrong limit of 2060.

It appears that other callers of scatterwalk_{page}done first advance walk->offset, so I believe that's the correct thing to do here.

a3f5c33 Zou Nan hai 20 March 2007, 20:41:57 UTC [IA64] min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation fix We have seen bad_pte_print when testing crashdump on an SN machine in recent 2.6.20 kernel. There are tons of bad pte print (pfn < max_low_pfn) reports when the crash kernel boots up, all those reported bad pages are inside initmem range; That is because if the crash kernel code and data happens to be at the beginning of the 1st node. build_node_maps in discontig.c will bypass reserved regions with filter_rsvd_memory. Since min_low_pfn is calculated in build_node_map, so in this case, min_low_pfn will be greater than kernel code and data. Because pages inside initmem are freed and reused later, we saw pfn_valid check fail on those pages. I think this theoretically happen on a normal kernel. When I check min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation in contig.c and discontig.c. I found more issues than this. 1. min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation is inconsistent between contig.c and discontig.c, min_low_pfn is calculated as the first page number of boot memmap in contig.c (Why? Though this may work at the most of the time, I don't think it is the right logic). It is calculated as the lowest physical memory page number bypass reserved regions in discontig.c. max_low_pfn is calculated include reserved regions in contig.c. It is calculated exclude reserved regions in discontig.c. 2. If kernel code and data region is happen to be at the begin or the end of physical memory, when min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation is bypassed kernel code and data, pages in initmem will report bad. 3. initrd is also in reserved regions, if it is at the begin or at the end of physical memory, kernel will refuse to reuse the memory. Because the virt_addr_valid check in free_initrd_mem. So it is better to fix and clean up those issues. Calculate min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn in a consistent way.
