| 27097ef | David S. Miller | 04 October 2007, 04:37:57 UTC | [SPARC64]: Temporary workaround for PCI-E slot on T1000. The PCI-E slot on T1000 connects directly to the Fire PCI chip with no intervening bridges visible in the OBP tree. Unfortunately the bus numbering of the device in that slot is different (2) from the PCI host controller (0), and thus the pci_bus_{read,write}_config_*() calls don't work out. Complicating things further the Fire PCI controller has no config space it responds to either. For now treat this case specially so that devices in the slot work. Longer term we need to perhaps cons up a dummy bridge between the Fire and the PCI-E slot so that the bus hierarchy is complete inside of the kernel and thus the bus numbering all works out right.

| cf8dc57 | Andi Kleen | 01 October 2007, 08:20:08 UTC | x86_64: increase VDSO_TEXT_OFFSET for ancient binutils For some reason old binutils genertate larger headers so increase the text offset of the vdso to avoid linker errors. Roland McGrath explains: "There are extra symbols in the '.dynsym' section that are responsible for the size difference (They also cause corresponding inflation in '.gnu.version') Older ld's wrongly generated these unneeded symbols in .dynsym. This was fixed not all that long ago (2006); binutils-2.17.50.0.6 might be the first fixed version, but I have not verified for sure where the cutoff was. The unneeded symbols et al from old ld add almost 700 bytes excess. This limits fairly tightly the amount by which the actual text and data in the vDSO can grow in the future without pushing the whole file over 4kb. If it does grow later on, we should consider changing the layout with a config option or something to pack it better without that padding, when building the kernel with newer binutils."

This reverts commit b394e43e995d08821588a22561c6a71a63b4ff27. Lachlan McIlroy says: It tried to fix an issue where log replay is replaying an inode cluster initialisation transaction that should not be replayed because the inode cluster on disk is more up to date. Since we don't log file sizes (we rely on inode flushing to get them to disk) then we can't just replay all the transations in the log and expect the inode to be completely restored. We lose file size updates. Unfortunately this fix is causing more (serious) problems than it is fixing.

| 4827bbb | Nick Piggin | 29 September 2007, 13:28:48 UTC | i386: remove bogus comment about memory barrier The comment being removed by this patch is incorrect and misleading. In the following situation: 1. load ... 2. store 1 -> X 3. wmb 4. rmb 5. load a <- Y 6. store ... 4 will only ensure ordering of 1 with 5. 3 will only ensure ordering of 2 with 6. Further, a CPU with strictly in-order stores will still only provide that 2 and 6 are ordered (effectively, it is the same as a weakly ordered CPU with wmb after every store). In all cases, 5 may still be executed before 2 is visible to other CPUs! The additional piece of the puzzle that mb() provides is the store/load ordering, which fundamentally cannot be achieved with any combination of rmb()s and wmb()s. This can be an unexpected result if one expected any sort of global ordering guarantee to barriers (eg. that the barriers themselves are sequentially consistent with other types of barriers). However sfence or lfence barriers need only provide an ordering partial ordering of memory operations -- Consider that wmb may be implemented as nothing more than inserting a special barrier entry in the store queue, or, in the case of x86, it can be a noop as the store queue is in order. And an rmb may be implemented as a directive to prevent subsequent loads only so long as their are no previous outstanding loads (while there could be stores still in store queues). I can actually see the occasional load/store being reordered around lfence on my core2. That doesn't prove my above assertions, but it does show the comment is wrong (unless my program is -- can send it out by request). So: mb() and smp_mb() always have and always will require a full mfence or lock prefixed instruction on x86. And we should remove this comment.

The check is doubly-wrong because all that a write() can be is a sendmsg() call with a NULL msg_control and a single entry iovec. No special semantics should be assigned to it, therefore the zero length check should be removed entirely. This matches the behavior of BSD and several other systems. Alan Cox notes that SuSv3 says the behavior of a zero length write on non-files is "unspecified", but that's kind of useless since BSD has defined this behavior for a quarter century and BSD is essentially what application folks code to.

| f7f847b | Linus Torvalds | 26 September 2007, 22:21:33 UTC | Revert "x86-64: Disable local APIC timer use on AMD systems with C1E" This reverts commit e66485d747505e9d960b864fc6c37f8b2afafaf0, since Rafael Wysocki noticed that the change only works for his in -mm, not in mainline (and that both "noapictimer" _and_ "apicmaintimer" are broken on his hardware, but that's apparently not a regression, just a symptom of the same issue that causes the automatic apic timer disable to not work). It turns out that it really doesn't work correctly on x86-64, since x86-64 doesn't use the generic clock events for timers yet. Thanks to Rafal for testing, and here's the ugly details on x86-64 as per Thomas: "I just looked into the code and the logic vs. noapictimer on SMP is completely broken. On i386 the noapictimer option not only disables the local APIC timer, it also registers the CPUs for broadcasting via IPI on SMP systems. The x86-64 code uses the broadcast only when the local apic timer is active, i.e. "noapictimer" is not on the command line. This defeats the whole purpose of "noapictimer". It should be there to make boxen work, where the local APIC timer actually has a hardware problem, e.g. the nx6325. The current implementation of x86_64 only fixes the ACPI c-states related problem where the APIC timer stops in C3(2), nothing else. On nx6325 and other AMD X2 equipped systems which have the C1E enabled we run into the following: PIT keeps jiffies (and the system) running, but the local APIC timer interrupts can get out of sync due to this C1E effect. I don't think this is a critical problem, but it is wrong nevertheless. I think it's safe to revert the C1E patch and postpone the fix to the clock events conversion." On further reflection, Thomas noted: "It's even worse than I thought on the first check: "noapictimer" on the command line of an SMP box prevents _ONLY_ the boot CPU apic timer from being used. But the secondary CPU is still unconditionally setting up the APIC timer and uses the non calibrated variable calibration_result, which is of course 0, to setup the APIC timer. Wreckage guaranteed." so we'll just have to wait for the x86 merge to hopefully fix this up for x86-64. Tested-and-requested-by: Rafael J.

This stops the local apic timer. This was debugged right after the dyntick merge on i386 and despite the patch title it fixes only the 32 bit path. x86_64 is still missing this fix. It seems that mainline is not really affected by this issue, as the PIT is running and keeps jiffies incrementing, but that's just waiting for trouble. -mm suffers from this problem due to the x86_64 high resolution timer patches. This is a quick and dirty port of the i386 code to x86_64. I spent quite a time with Rafael to debug the -mm / hrt wreckage until someone pointed us to this. I really had forgotten that we debugged this half a year ago already. Sigh, is it just me or is there something yelling arch/x86 into my ear?

| 255129d | Trond Myklebust | 25 September 2007, 19:55:03 UTC | NLM: Fix a circular lock dependency in lockd The problem is that the garbage collector for the 'host' structures nlm_gc_hosts(), holds nlm_host_mutex while calling down to nlmsvc_mark_resources, which, eventually takes the file->f_mutex. We cannot therefore call nlmsvc_lookup_host() from within nlmsvc_create_block, since the caller will already hold file->f_mutex, so the attempt to grab nlm_host_mutex may deadlock. Fix the problem by calling nlmsvc_lookup_host() outside the file->f_mutex.

| 5309809 | Linus Torvalds | 26 September 2007, 16:16:21 UTC | Add explicit zeroing to "envp" array in device 'show' method As Stephen Hemminger says, this is a "belt and suspenders" patch that zeroes the envp array at allocation time, even though all the users should NULL-terminate it anyway (and we've hopefully fixed everybody that doesn't do that). And we'll apparently clean the whole envp thing up for 2.6.24 anyway. But let's just be robust, and do both this *and* make sure that all users are doing the right thing.
