| 6c9bacb | john stultz | 02 December 2008, 02:34:41 UTC | time: catch xtime_nsec underflows and fix them Impact: fix time warp bug Alex Shi, along with Yanmin Zhang have been noticing occasional time inconsistencies recently. Through their great diagnosis, they found that the xtime_nsec value used in update_wall_time was occasionally going negative. After looking through the code for awhile, I realized we have the possibility for an underflow when three conditions are met in update_wall_time(): 1) We have accumulated a second's worth of nanoseconds, so we incremented xtime.tv_sec and appropriately decrement xtime_nsec. (This doesn't cause xtime_nsec to go negative, but it can cause it to be small). 2) The remaining offset value is large, but just slightly less then cycle_interval. 3) clocksource_adjust() is speeding up the clock, causing a corrective amount (compensating for the increase in the multiplier being multiplied against the unaccumulated offset value) to be subtracted from xtime_nsec. This can cause xtime_nsec to underflow. Unfortunately, since we notify the NTP subsystem via second_overflow() whenever we accumulate a full second, and this effects the error accumulation that has already occured, we cannot simply revert the accumulated second from xtime nor move the second accumulation to after the clocksource_adjust call without a change in behavior. This leaves us with (at least) two options: 1) Simply return from clocksource_adjust() without making a change if we notice the adjustment would cause xtime_nsec to go negative. This would work, but I'm concerned that if a large adjustment was needed (due to the error being large), it may be possible to get stuck with an ever increasing error that becomes too large to correct (since it may always force xtime_nsec negative). This may just be paranoia on my part. 2) Catch xtime_nsec if it is negative, then add back the amount its negative to both xtime_nsec and the error. This second method is consistent with how we've handled earlier rounding issues, and also has the benefit that the error being added is always in the oposite direction also always equal or smaller then the correction being applied. So the risk of a corner case where things get out of control is lessened.

| 726c12f | Joseph Myers | 04 December 2008, 03:36:05 UTC | sparc64: Fix VIS emulation bugs This patch fixes some bugs in VIS emulation that cause the GCC test failure FAIL: gcc.target/sparc/pdist-3.c execution test for both 32-bit and 64-bit testing on hardware lacking these instructions. The emulation code for the pdist instruction uses RS1(insn) for both source registers rs1 and rs2, which is obviously wrong and leads to the instruction doing nothing (the observed problem), and further inspection of the code shows that RS1 uses a shift of 24 and RD a shift of 25, which clearly cannot both be right; examining SPARC documentation indicates the correct shift for RS1 is 14. This patch fixes the bug if single-stepping over the affected instruction in the debugger, but not if the testcase is run standalone. For that, Wind River has another patch I hope they will send as a followup to this patch submission. Signed-off-by: Joseph Myers <joseph@codesourcery.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

However, looking at the user-space oprofile code there isn't the matching entry in libop/op_cpu_type.c or the events/unit_mask files in events/i386 directory. The Intel AP-485 says this is a "Intel Pentium M processor model D". Seems like the oprofile kernel driver should be identifying the processor as "i386/p6_mobile" The driver identification code doesn't look quite right in nmi_init.c http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git;a=blob;f=arch/x86/oprofile/nmi_int.c;h=022cd41ea9b4106e5884277096e80e9088a7c7a9;hb=HEAD has: 409 case 10 ... 13: 410 *cpu_type = "i386/p6"; 411 break; Referring to the Intel AP-485: case 10 and 11 should produce "i386/piii" case 13 should produce "i386/p6_mobile" I didn't see anything for case 12. Something like the attached patch. I don't have a celeron machine to verify that changes in this area of the kernel fix thing. -Will Signed-off-by: William Cohen <wcohen@redhat.com> Tested-by: Alan Jenkins <alan-jenkins@tuffmail.co.uk> Acked-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com> | 03 December 2008, 16:17:17 UTC |

| 0e435ac | Milan Broz | 03 December 2008, 11:55:08 UTC | block: fix setting of max_segment_size and seg_boundary mask Fix setting of max_segment_size and seg_boundary mask for stacked md/dm devices. When stacking devices (LVM over MD over SCSI) some of the request queue parameters are not set up correctly in some cases by default, namely max_segment_size and and seg_boundary mask. If you create MD device over SCSI, these attributes are zeroed. Problem become when there is over this mapping next device-mapper mapping - queue attributes are set in DM this way: request_queue max_segment_size seg_boundary_mask SCSI 65536 0xffffffff MD RAID1 0 0 LVM 65536 -1 (64bit) Unfortunately bio_add_page (resp. bio_phys_segments) calculates number of physical segments according to these parameters. During the generic_make_request() is segment cout recalculated and can increase bio->bi_phys_segments count over the allowed limit. (After bio_clone() in stack operation.) Thi is specially problem in CCISS driver, where it produce OOPS here BUG_ON(creq->nr_phys_segments > MAXSGENTRIES); (MAXSEGENTRIES is 31 by default.) Sometimes even this command is enough to cause oops: dd iflag=direct if=/dev/<vg>/<lv> of=/dev/null bs=128000 count=10 This command generates bios with 250 sectors, allocated in 32 4k-pages (last page uses only 1024 bytes). For LVM layer, it allocates bio with 31 segments (still OK for CCISS), unfortunatelly on lower layer it is recalculated to 32 segments and this violates CCISS restriction and triggers BUG_ON(). The patch tries to fix it by: * initializing attributes above in queue request constructor blk_queue_make_request() * make sure that blk_queue_stack_limits() inherits setting (DM uses its own function to set the limits because it blk_queue_stack_limits() was introduced later. It should probably switch to use generic stack limit function too.) * sets the default seg_boundary value in one place (blkdev.h) * use this mask as default in DM (instead of -1, which differs in 64bit) Bugs related to this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471639 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8672 Signed-off-by: Milan Broz <mbroz@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com> Cc: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Cc: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp> Cc: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Cc: Mike Miller <mike.miller@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com> | 03 December 2008, 11:55:55 UTC |

| 53a0880 | Tejun Heo | 03 December 2008, 11:41:26 UTC | block: internal dequeue shouldn't start timer blkdev_dequeue_request() and elv_dequeue_request() are equivalent and both start the timeout timer. Barrier code dequeues the original barrier request but doesn't passes the request itself to lower level driver, only broken down proxy requests; however, as the original barrier code goes through the same dequeue path and timeout timer is started on it. If barrier sequence takes long enough, this timer expires but the low level driver has no idea about this request and oops follows. Timeout timer shouldn't have been started on the original barrier request as it never goes through actual IO. This patch unexports elv_dequeue_request(), which has no external user anyway, and makes it operate on elevator proper w/o adding the timer and make blkdev_dequeue_request() call elv_dequeue_request() and add timer. Internal users which don't pass the request to driver - barrier code and end_that_request_last() - are converted to use elv_dequeue_request().

| 6636487 | Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz | 02 December 2008, 19:40:03 UTC | amd74xx: workaround unreliable AltStatus register for nVidia controllers It seems that on some nVidia controllers using AltStatus register can be unreliable so default to Status register if the PCI device is in Compatibility Mode. In order to achieve this: * Add ide_pci_is_in_compatibility_mode() inline helper to <linux/ide.h>. * Add IDE_HFLAG_BROKEN_ALTSTATUS host flag and set it in amd74xx host driver for nVidia controllers in Compatibility Mode. * Teach actual_try_to_identify() and drive_is_ready() about the new flag. This fixes the regression caused by removal of CONFIG_IDEPCI_SHARE_IRQ config option in 2.6.25 and using AltStatus register unconditionally when available (kernel.org bugs #11659 and #10216). [ Moreover for CONFIG_IDEPCI_SHARE_IRQ=y (which is what most people and distributions use) it never worked correctly. ] Thanks to Remy LABENE and Lars Winterfeld for help with debugging the problem.

| 09a8126 | Jarkko Lavinen | 01 December 2008, 21:14:08 UTC | i82875p_edac: fix module remove Fix module removal bugs of i82875p_edac. Also i82975x_edac code seems to have the same module removal bugs as in i82875p_edac. The problems were: 1. In module removal i82875p_remove_one() is never called. Variable i82875p_registered is newer changed from 1, which guarantees i82875p_remove_one() is not called (and even if it were called, it would be called in wrong order). As a result, the edac_mc workque is not stopped and keeps probing. If kernel debugging options are not enabled, user may not notice anything going wrong. if debugging options are enabled and I do "rmmod i82875p_edac", I get: edac debug: edac_pci_workq_function() checking BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at f882d16f ... call trace: [<f8834df3>] ? edac_mc_workq_function+0x55/0x7e [edac_core] [<c0233974>] ? run_workqueue+0xd7/0x1a5 [<c023392f>] ? run_workqueue+0x92/0x1a5 [<f8834d9e>] ? edac_mc_workq_function+0x0/0x7e [edac_core] [<c0233af9>] ? worker_thread+0xb7/0xc3 [<c0236a7b>] ? autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x33 [<c0233a42>] ? worker_thread+0x0/0xc3 [<c0236809>] ? kthread+0x3b/0x61 [<c02367ce>] ? kthread+0x0/0x61 [<c0204587>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10 Fix for this is to get rid of needles variable i82875p_registered altogether and run i82875p_remove_one() *before* pci_unregister_driver(). 2. edac_mc_del_mc() uses mci after freeing mci edac_mc_del_mc() calls calls edac_remove_sysfs_mci_device(). The kobject refcount of mci drops to 0 and mci is freed. After this mci is accessed via debug print and i82875p_remove_one() still uses mci->pvt and tries to free mci again with edac_mc_free(). The fix for this is add kobject_get(&mci->edac_mci_kobj) after edac_mc_alloc(). Then the mci is still available after returning from edac_mc_del_mc() with refcount 1, and mci->pvt is still available. When i82875p_remove_one() finally calls edac_mc_free(), this will cause kobject_put() and mci is released properly.

On 2.6.25 the module loads just fine. The overflow device on the MB seems to be hidden and its resources are not allocated at normal PCI bus init. Log shows the missing resource problem: EDAC DEBUG: i82875p_probe1() PCI: 0000:00:06.0 reg 10 32bit mmio: [fecf0000, fecf0fff] pci 0000:00:06.0: device not available because of BAR 0 [0xfecf0000-0xfecf0fff] collisions EDAC i82875p: i82875p_setup_overfl_dev(): Failed to enable overflow device The patch below fixes this by calling pci_bus_assign_resources() after the overflow device is revealed and added to the bus.

| bca404a | Dmitry Baryshkov | 01 December 2008, 21:14:05 UTC | fbdev: fix FB console blanking The commit aef7db4bd5a3b6068dfa05919a3d685199eed116 fixed the problem with recursive locking in fb blanking code if blank is caused by user setting the /sys/class/graphics/fb*/blank. However this broke the fbcon timeout blanking. If you use a driver that defines ->fb_blank operation and at the same time that driver relies on other driver (e.g. backlight or lcd class) to blank the screen, when the fbcon times out and tries to blank the fb, it will call only fb driver blanker and won't notify the other driver. Thus FB output is disabled, but the screen isn't blanked. Restore fbcon blanking and at the same time apply the proper fix for the above problem: if fbcon_blank is called with FBINFO_FLAG_USEREVENT, we are already called through notification from fb_blank, thus we don't have to blank the fb again.
