efba018 | Michael Chan | 03 December 2008, 08:36:15 UTC | bnx2: Add workaround to handle missed MSI. The bnx2 chips do not support per MSI vector masking. On 5706/5708, new MSI address/data are stored only when the MSI enable bit is toggled. As a result, SMP affinity no longer works in the latest kernel. A more serious problem is that the driver will no longer receive interrupts when the MSI receiving CPU goes offline. The workaround in this patch only addresses the problem of CPU going offline. When that happens, the driver's timer function will detect that it is making no forward progress on pending interrupt events and will recover from it. Eric Dumazet reported the problem. We also found that if an interrupt is internally asserted while MSI and INTA are disabled, the chip will end up in the same state after MSI is re-enabled. The same workaround is needed for this problem. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Tested-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.

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.

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.

7ef9964 | Davide Libenzi | 01 December 2008, 21:13:55 UTC | epoll: introduce resource usage limits It has been thought that the per-user file descriptors limit would also limit the resources that a normal user can request via the epoll interface. Vegard Nossum reported a very simple program (a modified version attached) that can make a normal user to request a pretty large amount of kernel memory, well within the its maximum number of fds. To solve such problem, default limits are now imposed, and /proc based configuration has been introduced. A new directory has been created, named /proc/sys/fs/epoll/ and inside there, there are two configuration points: max_user_instances = Maximum number of devices - per user max_user_watches = Maximum number of "watched" fds - per user The current default for "max_user_watches" limits the memory used by epoll to store "watches", to 1/32 of the amount of the low RAM. As example, a 256MB 32bit machine, will have "max_user_watches" set to roughly 90000. That should be enough to not break existing heavy epoll users. The default value for "max_user_instances" is set to 128, that should be enough too. This also changes the userspace, because a new error code can now come out from EPOLL_CTL_ADD (-ENOSPC). The EMFILE from epoll_create() was already listed, so that should be ok.

dc19f9d | KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki | 01 December 2008, 21:13:48 UTC | memcg: memory hotplug fix for notifier callback Fixes for memcg/memory hotplug. While memory hotplug allocate/free memmap, page_cgroup doesn't free page_cgroup at OFFLINE when page_cgroup is allocated via bootomem. (Because freeing bootmem requires special care.) Then, if page_cgroup is allocated by bootmem and memmap is freed/allocated by memory hotplug, page_cgroup->page == page is no longer true. But current MEM_ONLINE handler doesn't check it and update page_cgroup->page if it's not necessary to allocate page_cgroup. (This was not found because memmap is not freed if SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is y.) And I noticed that MEM_ONLINE can be called against "part of section". So, freeing page_cgroup at CANCEL_ONLINE will cause trouble. (freeing used page_cgroup) Don't rollback at CANCEL. One more, current memory hotplug notifier is stopped by slub because it sets NOTIFY_STOP_MASK to return vaule. So, page_cgroup's callback never be called. (low priority than slub now.) I think this slub's behavior is not intentional(BUG). and fixes it. Another way to be considered about page_cgroup allocation: - free page_cgroup at OFFLINE even if it's from bootmem and remove specieal handler. But it requires more changes.

b29acbd | Nick Piggin | 01 December 2008, 21:13:47 UTC | mm: vmalloc fix lazy unmapping cache aliasing Jim Radford has reported that the vmap subsystem rewrite was sometimes causing his VIVT ARM system to behave strangely (seemed like going into infinite loops trying to fault in pages to userspace). We determined that the problem was most likely due to a cache aliasing issue. flush_cache_vunmap was only being called at the moment the page tables were to be taken down, however with lazy unmapping, this can happen after the page has subsequently been freed and allocated for something else. The dangling alias may still have dirty data attached to it. The fix for this problem is to do the cache flushing when the caller has called vunmap -- it would be a bug for them to write anything else to the mapping at that point. That appeared to solve Jim's problems.

This patch updates piix_broken_suspend() such that it can match such case. As the borked DMI data is a bit generic, matching many entries to make the match more specific is necessary. As the usual DMI matching is limited to four entries, this patch uses hard coded manual matching. This is reported by Alexandru Romanescu.

42ab01c | Jack Morgenstein | 01 December 2008, 18:09:37 UTC | IB/mlx4: Fix MTT leakage in resize CQ When resizing a CQ, MTTs associated with the old CQE buffer were not freed. As a result, if any app used resize CQ repeatedly, all MTTs were eventually exhausted, which led to all memory registration operations failing until the driver is reloaded. Once the RESIZE_CQ command returns successfully from FW, FW no longer accesses the old CQ buffer, so it is safe to deallocate the MTT entries used by the old CQ buffer. Finally, if the RESIZE_CQ command fails, the MTTs allocated for the new CQEs buffer also need to be de-allocated. This fixes <https://bugs.openfabrics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1416>.

The panic kernel either does not start at all or crash in various places. The problem is that hpwdt_pretimeout is registered with register_die_notifier() with the highest possible priority. Because it returns NOTIFY_STOP, the crash_nmi_callback which is also registered with register_die_notifier() is never executed. This causes the shutdown of other CPUs to fail. Reverting the order is no option: The crash_nmi_callback executes HLT and so never returns normally. Because of that, it must be executed as last notifier, which currently is done. So, that patch returns NOTIFY_OK to keep the crash_nmi_callback executed.
