96cd5b0 Mike Kravetz 02 August 2005, 04:11:48 UTC [PATCH] ppc64: POWER 4 fails to boot with NUMA If CONFIG_NUMA is set, some POWER 4 systems will fail to boot. This is because of special processing needed to handle invalid node IDs (0xffff) on POWER 4. My previous patch to handle memory 'holes' within nodes forgot to add this special case for POWER 4 in one place. In reality, I'm not sure that configuring the kernel for NUMA on POWER 4 makes much sense. Are there POWER 4 based systems with NUMA characteristics that are presented by the firmware? But, distros want one kernel for all systems so NUMA is on by default in their kernels. The patch handles those cases.

842bbaa Rusty Russell 02 August 2005, 04:11:47 UTC [PATCH] Module per-cpu alignment cannot always be met The module code assumes noone will ever ask for a per-cpu area more than SMP_CACHE_BYTES aligned. However, as these cases show, gcc asks sometimes asks for 32-byte alignment for the per-cpu section on a module, and if CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT is 4, we hit that BUG_ON(). This is obviously an unusual combination, as there have been few reports, but better to warn than die.

2757a71 Hirokazu Takata 02 August 2005, 04:11:35 UTC [PATCH] m32r: Fix local-timer event handling There was a scheduling problem of the m32r SMP kernel; A process rarely stopped and gave no responding but the other process have been handled by the other CPU still lives, then if we did something in the other terminal or something like that, the stopped process came back to life and continued its operation... (ex. LMbench: lat_sig) In the m32r SMP kernel, a local-timer event is delivered by using an IPI(inter processor interrupts); LOCAL_TIMER_IPI. And a function smp_send_timer() is prepared to send the LOCAL_TIMER_IPI from the current CPU to the other CPUs. The funtion smp_send_timer() was placed and used in do_IRQ() in former times (before 2.6.10-rc3-mm1 kernel), however, it was unintentionally removed when arch/m32r/kernel/irq.c was modified to employ the generic hardirq framework (CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQ) in my previous patch.

4ceb5db Linus Torvalds 01 August 2005, 18:14:49 UTC Fix get_user_pages() race for write access There's no real guarantee that handle_mm_fault() will always be able to break a COW situation - if an update from another thread ends up modifying the page table some way, handle_mm_fault() may end up requiring us to re-try the operation. That's normally fine, but get_user_pages() ended up re-trying it as a read, and thus a write access could in theory end up losing the dirty bit or be done on a page that had not been properly COW'ed. This makes get_user_pages() always retry write accesses as write accesses by making "follow_page()" require that a writable follow has the dirty bit set. That simplifies the code and solves the race: if the COW break fails for some reason, we'll just loop around and try again.

6cb5481 Ingo Molnar 01 August 2005, 11:39:13 UTC [PATCH] remove sys_set_zone_reclaim() This removes sys_set_zone_reclaim() for now. While i'm sure Martin is trying to solve a real problem, we must not hard-code an incomplete and insufficient approach into a syscall, because syscalls are pretty much for eternity. I am quite strongly convinced that this syscall must not hit v2.6.13 in its current form. Firstly, the syscall lacks basic syscall design: e.g. it allows the global setting of VM policy for unprivileged users. (!) [ Imagine an Oracle installation and a SAP installation on the same NUMA box fighting over the 'optimal' setting for this flag. What will they do? Will they try to set the flag to their own preferred value every second or so? ] Secondly, it was added based on a single datapoint from Martin: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-mm&m=111763597218177&w=2 where Martin characterizes the numbers the following way: ' Run-to-run variability for "make -j" is huge, so these numbers aren't terribly useful except to see that with reclaim the benchmark still finishes in a reasonable amount of time. ' in other words: the fundamental problem has likely not been solved, only a tendential move into the right direction has been observed, and a handful of numbers were picked out of a set of hugely variable results, without showing the variability data. How much variance is there run-to-run? I'd really suggest to first walk the walk and see what's needed to get stable & predictable kernel compilation numbers on that NUMA box, before adding random syscalls to tune a particular aspect of the VM ... which approach might not even matter once the whole picture has been analyzed and understood! The third, most important point is that the syscall exposes VM tuning internals in a completely unstructured way. What sense does it make to have a _GLOBAL_ per-node setting for 'should we go to another node for reclaim'? If then it might make sense to do this per-app, via numalib or so. The change is minimalistic in that it doesnt remove the syscall and the underlying infrastructure changes, only the user-visible changes. We could perhaps add a CAP_SYS_ADMIN-only sysctl for this hack, a'ka /proc/sys/vm/swappiness, but even that looks quite counterproductive when the generic approach is that we are trying to reduce the number of external factors in the VM balance picture.

f0098f7 Denis Lunev 31 July 2005, 00:47:25 UTC [NET] Fix too aggressive backoff in dst garbage collection The bug is evident when it is seen once. dst gc timer was backed off, when gc queue is not empty. But this means that timer quickly backs off, if at least one destination remains in use. Normally, the bug is invisible, because adding new dst entry to queue cancels the backoff. But it shots deadly with destination cache overflow when new destinations are not released for long time f.e. after an interface goes down. The fix is to cancel backoff when something was released.

Same as the update for i386, the patch addresses a problem with ACPI SCI IRQ. The patch corrects the code such that SCI IRQ is skipped and duplicate entry is avoided. The VIA chipset uses 4-bit IRQ register for internal interrupt routing, and therefore cannot handle IRQ numbers assigned to its devices. The patch corrects this problem by allowing PCI IRQs below 16.

We cannot use default OpenBIOS virtual mapping, because it interferes with pinned TLB entry. While we are at it, move early UART mapping to TLB slot 0, so it can survive longer during boot process (slot 1 is used by the first ioremap call, effectively killing UART mapping if it occupies this slot). Also, change UART TLB entry size to 4K (256M is too much for a bunch of registers :). Squash some warnings on the way. Tested on Ebony and Ocotea with 1G of RAM.

This should be fixed by pci_restore_state - however, the APBASE register cannot be set to conflict with the APSIZE register. If APSIZE is larger than it was before suspend, pci_restore_state will not restore APBASE correctly. The attached patch adds an extra item to the agp_bridge_data structure and uses it to store the value of APBASE. On resume, this is then written after APSIZE has been set. This patch only touches the path used for Intel chipsets without integrated graphics, and may need to be extended to work with the others. Without this patch, I get the symptoms described in bug 4921 - APBASE ends up overlapping various PCI devices, and as a result they fail to work after resume.

e1afc3f Natalie.Protasevich@unisys.com 29 July 2005, 21:03:32 UTC [PATCH] x86: avoid wasting IRQs patch update The patch addresses a problem with ACPI SCI interrupt entry, which gets re-used, and the IRQ is assigned to another unrelated device. The patch corrects the code such that SCI IRQ is skipped and duplicate entry is avoided. Second issue came up with VIA chipset, the problem was caused by original patch assigning IRQs starting 16 and up. The VIA chipset uses 4-bit IRQ register for internal interrupt routing, and therefore cannot handle IRQ numbers assigned to its devices. The patch corrects this problem by allowing PCI IRQs below 16.

To eliminate the warning messages, you can add the option mtrr:2 to add a write-back mtrr for vesafb. Or just use nomtrr option. 1. Fix algorithm for finding the best power of 2 size with mtrr_add(). 2. Add option to choose the mtrr type by extending the mtrr boot option: mtrr:n where n 0 = no mtrr (equivalent to using the nomtrr option) 1 = uncachable 2 = write back 3 = write combining (default) 4 = write through Signed-off-by: Antonino Daplas <adaplas@pol.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> 29 July 2005, 22:01:13 UTC

3d483f4 Eric W. Biederman 29 July 2005, 21:03:29 UTC [PATCH] Fix sync_tsc hang sync_tsc was using smp_call_function to ask the boot processor to report it's tsc value. smp_call_function performs an IPI_send_allbutself which is a broadcast ipi. There is a window during processor startup during which the target cpu has started and before it has initialized it's interrupt vectors so it can properly process an interrupt. Receveing an interrupt during that window will triple fault the cpu and do other nasty things. Why cli does not protect us from that is beyond me. The simple fix is to match ia64 and provide a smp_call_function_single. Which avoids the broadcast and is more efficient. This certainly fixes the problem of getting stuck on boot which was very easy to trigger on my SMP Hyperthreaded Xeon, and I think it fixes it for the right reasons.

Additionally, it fixes the return value - the usb_calc_bus_time function returns the time in nanoseconds (I didn't notice that before) while the HS_USECS and HS_USECS_ISO are microseconds. This fixes the function to return nanoseconds always, and adjusts ehci-q.c (the only high-speed caller of the function) to wrap the call in NS_TO_US().
