9723198 | Carsten Otte | 17 January 2008, 23:21:17 UTC | #ifdef very expensive debug check in page fault path This patch puts #ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_VM around a check in vm_normal_page that verifies that a pfn is valid. This patch increases performance of the page fault microbenchmark in lmbench by 13% and overall dbench performance by 7% on s390x. pfn_valid() is an expensive operation on s390 that needs a high double digit amount of CPU cycles. Nick Piggin suggested that pfn_valid() involves an array lookup on systems with sparsemem, and therefore is an expensive operation there too. The check looks like a clear debug thing to me, it should never trigger on regular kernels. And if a pte is created for an invalid pfn, we'll find out once the memory gets accessed later on anyway.

This hurts when the governor's worker function relies on memory that is not yet set up by its init function. This migrates all governors from module_init() to fs_initcall() when being the default, as was already done in cpufreq_performance when it was the only possible choice. The performance governor is always initialized early because it might be used as fallback even when not being the default. Fixes at least one actual oops where ondemand is the default governor and cpufreq_governor_dbs() uses the uninitialised kondemand_wq work-queue during boot-time.

This is not permitted in lockdep. Unfortunately, I was unaware of that restriction when I wrote the code to debug workqueue problems with lockdep and used the workqueue name as the lockdep class name. This can obviously lead to the problem if the workqueue name is dynamic.

1a49915 | Luck, Tony | 14 January 2008, 17:59:24 UTC | [IA64] Fix unaligned handler for floating point instructions with base update The compiler team did the hard work for this distilling a problem in large fortran application which showed up when applied to a 290MB input data set down to this instruction: ldfd f34=[r17],-8 Which they noticed incremented r17 by 0x10 rather than decrementing it by 8 when the value in r17 caused an unaligned data fault. I tracked it down to some bad instruction decoding in unaligned.c. The code assumes that the 'x' bit can determine whether the instruction is an "ldf" or "ldfp" ... which it is for opcode=6 (see table 4-29 on page 3:302 of the SDM). But for opcode=7 the 'x' bit is irrelevent, all variants are "ldf" instructions (see table 4-36 on page 3:306). Note also that interpreting the instruction as "ldfp" means that the "paired" floating point register (f35 in the example here) will also be corrupted.

7d2284b | Mathieu Desnoyers | 15 January 2008, 17:42:02 UTC | Fix Blackfin HARDWARE_PM support This patch restores the blackfin Hardware Performance Monitor Profiling support that was killed by the combining of instrumentation menus in commit 09cadedbdc01f1a4bea1f427d4fb4642eaa19da9. Since there seems to be no good reason to behave differently from other architectures, it now automatically selects the hardware performance counters whenever the profiling is activated. mach-common/irqpanic.c: pm_overflow calls pm_overflow_handler which is in oprofile/op_model_bf533.c. I doubt that setting HARDWARE_PM as "m" will work at all, since the pm_overflow_handler should be in the core kernel image because it is called by irqpanic.c. Therefore, I change HARDWARE_PM from a tristate to a bool. The whole arch/$(ARCH)/oprofile/ is built depending on CONFIG_OPROFILE. Since part of the HARDWARE_PM support files sits in this directory, it makes sense to also depend on OPROFILE, not only PROFILING. Since OPROFILE already depends on PROFILING, it is correct to only depend on OPROFILE only. Thanks to Adrian Bunk for finding this bug and providing an initial patch.

Rather than just revert the thing outright, or add ARM-specific knowledge to the generic Kconfig.instrumentation file (where the only and whole point was to be generic, not too architecture-specific), this just makes ARM not use the generic version, since it doesn't suit it. So create an arm-specific version of Kconfig.instrumentation instead, and use that.

The interrupt handles does accidentally check for RTC_PIE and not RTC_AIE when comparing the time which was set in hpet_set_alarm_time(). I now verified on a test system here that without the patch applied, the attached test program fails on a system that has HPET with 2.6.24-rc7-default.

23be8c7 | Ingo Molnar | 15 January 2008, 15:44:37 UTC | x86: fix boot crash on HIGHMEM4G && SPARSEMEM Denys Fedoryshchenko reported a bootup crash when he upgraded his system from 3GB to 4GB RAM: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/1/7/9 the bug is due to HIGHMEM4G && SPARSEMEM kernels making pfn_to_page() to return an invalid pointer when the pfn is in a memory hole. The 256 MB PCI aperture at the end of RAM was not mapped by sparsemem, and hence the pfn was not valid. But set_highmem_pages_init() iterated this range without checking the pfn's validity first. this bug was probably present in the sparsemem code ever since sparsemem has been introduced in v2.6.13. It was masked due to HIGHMEM64G using larger memory regions in sparsemem_32.h: #ifdef CONFIG_X86_PAE #define SECTION_SIZE_BITS 30 #define MAX_PHYSADDR_BITS 36 #define MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS 36 #else #define SECTION_SIZE_BITS 26 #define MAX_PHYSADDR_BITS 32 #define MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS 32 #endif which creates 1GB sparsemem regions instead of 64MB sparsemem regions. So in practice we only ever created true sparsemem holes on x86 with HIGHMEM4G - but that was rarely used by distros. ( btw., we could probably save 2MB of mem_map[]s on X86_PAE if we reduced the sparsemem region size to 256 MB. ) Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Acked-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> | 15 January 2008, 15:44:37 UTC |
dfbe0d3 | Paul Mackerras | 15 January 2008, 06:29:33 UTC | [POWERPC] Fix boot failure on POWER6 Commit 473980a99316c0e788bca50996375a2815124ce1 added a call to clear the SLB shadow buffer before registering it. Unfortunately this means that we clear out the entries that slb_initialize has previously set in there. On POWER6, the hypervisor uses the SLB shadow buffer when doing partition switches, and that means that after the next partition switch, each non-boot CPU has no SLB entries to map the kernel text and data, which causes it to crash. This fixes it by reverting most of 473980a9 and instead clearing the 3rd entry explicitly in slb_initialize. This fixes the problem that 473980a9 was trying to solve, but without breaking POWER6.

That means with our current code, drivers may do a dma_map_sg() of a 64kB page and obtain a dma_addr_t that is only 4k aligned. This works fine in most cases except for some infiniband HW it seems, where they tell the HW about the page size and it ignores the low bits of the DMA address. This works around it by making our IOMMU code enforce a PAGE_SIZE alignment for mappings of objects that are page aligned in the first place and whose size is larger or equal to a page.

c2e14f1 | Tejun Heo | 13 January 2008, 05:04:16 UTC | sata_sil24: freeze on non-dev errors reported via CERR CERR reports errors detected during executing a command. This doesn't mean the error is tied to the command and can be recovered by just issuing it again. Many of the errors are fatal port-wide connditions including HSM violation, host bus error and ATA bus error and require freezing and port reset. The freezing part wasn't implemented previously. This used to be okay because port resets were scheduled anyway and EH eventually resets and recovers the port. With PMP support added, this is no longer true. The error condition and recover actions are attributed to the fan-out port and the host port condition isn't properly recovered leading to EH failures. This patch makes CERR errors which require resets to freeze the port. This will force host port reset and proper recovery.

40d6a14 | Steven Rostedt | 14 January 2008, 08:55:10 UTC | Kick CPUS that might be sleeping in cpus_idle_wait Sometimes cpu_idle_wait gets stuck because it might miss CPUS that are already in idle, have no tasks waiting to run and have no interrupts going to them. This is common on bootup when switching cpu idle governors. This patch gives those CPUS that don't check in an IPI kick. Background: ----------- I notice this while developing the mcount patches, that every once in a while the system would hang. Looking deeper, the hang was always at boot up when registering init_menu of the cpu_idle menu governor. Talking with Thomas Gliexner, we discovered that one of the CPUS had no timer events scheduled for it and it was in idle (running with NO_HZ). So the CPU would not set the cpu_idle_state bit. Hitting sysrq-t a few times would eventually route the interrupt to the stuck CPU and the system would continue. Note, I would have used the PDA isidle but that is set after the cpu_idle_state bit is cleared, and would leave a window open where we may miss being kicked. hmm, looking closer at this, we still have a small race window between clearing the cpu_idle_state and disabling interrupts (hence the RFC). CPU0: CPU 1: --------- --------- cpu_idle_wait(): cpu_idle(): | __cpu_cpu_var(is_idle) = 1; | if (__get_cpu_var(cpu_idle_state)) /* == 0 */ per_cpu(cpu_idle_state, 1) = 1; | if (per_cpu(is_idle, 1)) /* == 1 */ | smp_call_function(1) | | receives ipi and runs do_nothing. wait on map == empty idle(); /* waits forever */ So really we need interrupts off for most of this then. One might think that we could simply clear the cpu_idle_state from do_nothing, but I'm assuming that cpu_idle governors can be removed, and this might cause a race that a governor might be used after the module was removed. Venki said: I think your RFC patch is the right solution here. As I see it, there is no race with your RFC patch. As long as you call a dummy smp_call_function on all CPUs, we should be OK. We can get rid of cpu_idle_state and the current wait forever logic altogether with dummy smp_call_function. And so there wont be any wait forever scenario. The whole point of cpu_idle_wait() is to make all CPUs come out of idle loop atleast once. The caller will use cpu_idle_wait something like this. // Want to change idle handler - Switch global idle handler to always present default_idle - call cpu_idle_wait so that all cpus come out of idle for an instant and stop using old idle pointer and start using default idle - Change the idle handler to a new handler - optional cpu_idle_wait if you want all cpus to start using the new handler immediately. Maybe the below 1s patch is safe bet for .24. But for .25, I would say we just replace all complicated logic by simple dummy smp_call_function and remove cpu_idle_state altogether.
