I'll leave them for now, since proper fix would be not that trivial as few one-liners below.

da9eac8 lib: taint kernel in common report_bug() WARN path. Commit 95b570c9cef3b12356454c7112571b7e406b4b51 ("Taint kernel after WARN_ON(condition)") introduced a TAINT_WARN that was implemented for all architectures using the generic warn_on_slowpath(), which excluded any architecture that set HAVE_ARCH_WARN_ON. As all of the architectures that implement their own WARN_ON() all go through the report_bug() path (specifically handling BUG_TRAP_TYPE_WARN), taint the kernel there as well for consistency. Tested on avr32 and sh. Also relevant for s390, parisc, and powerpc.

471d47e rtc-x1205: Fix alarm set I have discovered that the current version of rtc-x1205.c does not work correctly when asked to set the alarm time by the RTC_WKALM_SET ioctl() call. This happens because the alarm registers do not behave like the current-time registers. They are non-volatile. Two things go wrong: - the X1205 requires a 10 msec delay after any attempt to write to the non-volatile registers. The x1205_set_datetime() routine does the write as 8 single-byte writes without any delay. Only the first write succeeds. The second is NAKed because the chip is busy. - the X1205 resets the RWEL bit after any write to the non-volatile registers. This would lock out any further writes after the first even with a 10msec delay. I fix this by doing a single 8-byte write and then waiting 10msec for the chip to be ready. A side effect of this change is that it will speed up x1205_rtc_set_time() which uses the same code. I have also implemented the 'enable' bit in the rtc_wkalm structure, which the existing driver does not attempt to do. I have modified both x1205_rtc_set_alarm() to set the AL0E bit, and x1205_rtc_read_alarm() to return it. I have tested this patch on a LinkSys NSLU2 under OpenWRT, but on no other hardware. On the NSLU2 the X1205 correctly asserts its IRQ pin when the alarm time matches the current time.

a01cc65 rtc: rtc_read_alarm() handles wraparound While 0e36a9a4a788e4e92407774df76c545910810d35 ("rtc: fix readback from /sys/class/rtc/rtc?/wakealarm") made sure that active alarms were never returned with invalid "wildcard" fields (negative), it can still report (wrongly) that the alarm triggers in the past. Example, if it's now 10am, an alarm firing at 5am will be triggered TOMORROW not today. (Which may also be next month or next year...) This updates that alarm handling in three ways: * Handle alarm rollover in the common cases of RTCs that don't support matching on all date fields. * Skip the invalid-field logic when it's not needed. * Minor bugfix ... tm_isdst should be ignored, it's one of the fields Linux doesn't maintain. A warning is emitted for some of the unhandled rollover cases, but the possible combinations are a bit too numerous to handle every bit of potential hardware and firmware braindamage.

251b97f mm: dirty page accounting vs VM_MIXEDMAP Dirty page accounting accurately measures the amound of dirty pages in writable shared mappings by mapping the pages RO (as indicated by vma_wants_writenotify). We then trap on first write and call set_page_dirty() on the page, after which we map the page RW and continue execution. When we launder dirty pages, we call clear_page_dirty_for_io() which clears both the dirty flag, and maps the page RO again before we start writeout so that the story can repeat itself. vma_wants_writenotify() excludes VM_PFNMAP on the basis that we cannot do the regular dirty page stuff on raw PFNs and the memory isn't going anywhere anyway. The recently introduced VM_MIXEDMAP mixes both !pfn_valid() and pfn_valid() pages in a single mapping. We can't do dirty page accounting on !pfn_valid() pages as stated above, and mapping them RO causes them to be COW'ed on write, which breaks VM_SHARED semantics. Excluding VM_MIXEDMAP in vma_wants_writenotify() would mean we don't do the regular dirty page accounting for the pfn_valid() pages, which would bring back all the head-aches from inaccurate dirty page accounting. So instead, we let the !pfn_valid() pages get mapped RO, but fix them up unconditionally in the fault path.

de85422 USB: fix interrupt disabling for HCDs with shared interrupt handlers USB: fix interrupt disabling for HCDs with shared interrupt handlers As has been discussed several times on LKML, IRQF_SHARED | IRQF_DISABLED doesn't work reliably, i.e. a shared interrupt handler CAN'T be certain to be called with interrupts disabled. Most USB HCD handlers use IRQF_DISABLED and therefore havoc can break out if they share their interrupt with a handler that doesn't use it. On my test machine the yenta_socket interrupt handler (no IRQF_DISABLED) was registered before ehci_hcd and one uhci_hcd instance. Therefore all usb_hcd_irq() invocations for ehci_hcd and for one uhci_hcd instance happened with interrupts enabled. That led to random lockups as USB core HCD functions that acquire the same spinlock could be called twice from interrupt handlers. This patch updates usb_hcd_irq() to always disable/restore interrupts. usb_add_hcd() will silently remove any IRQF_DISABLED requested from HCD code.

29c8f6a USB: ohci - record data toggle after unlink This patch fixes a problem with OHCI where canceling bulk or interrupt URBs may lose track of the right data toggle. This seems to be a longstanding bug, possibly dating back to the Linux 2.4 kernel, which stayed hidden because (a) about half the time the data toggle bit was correct; (b) canceling such URBs is unusual; and (c) the few drivers which cancel these URBs either [1] do it only as part of shutting down, or [2] have fault recovery logic, which recovers. For those transfer types, the toggle is normally written back into the ED when each TD is retired. But canceling bypasses the mechanism used to retire TDs ... so on average, half the time the toggle bit will be invalid after cancelation. The fix is simple: the toggle state of any canceled TDs are propagated back to the ED in the finish_unlinks function. (Issue found by leonidv11@gmail.com ...)

056761e USB: ehci - fix timer regression This patch fixes a regression in the EHCI driver's TIMER_IO_WATCHDOG behavior. The patch "USB: EHCI: add separate IAA watchdog timer" changed how that timer is handled, so that short timeouts on the remaining timer (unfortunately, overloaded) would never be used. This takes a more direct approach, reorganizing the code slightly to be explicit about only the I/O watchdog role now being overridable. It also replaces a now-obsolete comment describing older timer behavior.

ee3ece8 hrtimer: prevent migration for raising softirq Due to a possible deadlock, the waking of the softirq was pushed outside of the hrtimer base locks. See commit 0c96c5979a522c3323c30a078a70120e29b5bdbc Unfortunately this allows the task to migrate after setting up the softirq and raising it. Since softirqs run a queue that is per-cpu we may raise the softirq on the wrong CPU and this will keep the queued softirq task from running. To solve this issue, this patch disables preemption around the releasing of the hrtimer lock and raising of the softirq.

494de90 Do not overwrite nr_zones on !NUMA when initialising zlcache_ptr The non-NUMA case of build_zonelist_cache() would initialize the zlcache_ptr for both node_zonelists[] to NULL. Which is problematic, since non-NUMA only has a single node_zonelists[] entry, and trying to zero the non-existent second one just overwrote the nr_zones field instead. As kswapd uses this value to determine what reclaim work is necessary, the result is that kswapd never reclaims. This causes processes to stall frequently in low-memory situations as they always direct reclaim. This patch initialises zlcache_ptr correctly.

a13307c PCI: acpiphp: cleanup notify handler on all root bridges During the development of the physical PCI slot patch series, Gary Hade kept on reporting strange oopses due to interactions between pci_slot and acpiphp. http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/11/28/319 find_root_bridges() unconditionally installs handle_hotplug_event_bridge() as an ACPI_SYSTEM_NOTIFY handler for all root bridges. However, during module cleanup, remove_bridge() will only remove the notify handler iff the root bridge had a hot-pluggable slot directly underneath. That is: root bridge -> hotplug slot But, if the topology looks like either of the following: root bridge -> non-hotplug slot root bridge -> p2p bridge -> hotplug slot Then we currently do not remove the notify handler from that root bridge. This can cause a kernel oops if we modprobe acpiphp later and it gets loaded somewhere else in memory. If the root bridge then receives a hotplug event, it will then attempt to call a stale, non-existent notify handler and we blow up. Much thanks goes to Gary Hade for his persistent debugging efforts.

99cb233 PCI: Limit VPD read/write lengths for Broadcom 5706, 5708, 5709 rev. For Broadcom 5706, 5708, 5709 rev. A nics, any read beyond the VPD end tag will hang the device. This problem was initially observed when a vpd entry was created in sysfs ('/sys/bus/pci/devices/<id>/vpd'). A read to this sysfs entry will dump 32k of data. Reading a full 32k will cause an access beyond the VPD end tag causing the device to hang. Once the device is hung, the bnx2 driver will not be able to reset the device. We believe that it is legal to read beyond the end tag and therefore the solution is to limit the read/write length. A majority of this patch is from Matthew Wilcox who gave code for reworking the PCI vpd size information. A PCI quirk added for the Broadcom NIC's to limit the read/write's.

8558f8f rcu: fix hotplug vs rcu race Dhaval Giani reported this warning during cpu hotplug stress-tests: | On running kernel compiles in parallel with cpu hotplug: | | WARNING: at arch/x86/kernel/smp.c:118 | native_smp_send_reschedule+0x21/0x36() | Modules linked in: | Pid: 27483, comm: cc1 Not tainted 2.6.26-rc7 #1 | [...] | [<c0110355>] native_smp_send_reschedule+0x21/0x36 | [<c014fe8f>] force_quiescent_state+0x47/0x57 | [<c014fef0>] call_rcu+0x51/0x6d | [<c01713b3>] __fput+0x130/0x158 | [<c0171231>] fput+0x17/0x19 | [<c016fd99>] filp_close+0x4d/0x57 | [<c016fdff>] sys_close+0x5c/0x97 IMHO the warning is a spurious one. cpu_online_map is updated by the _cpu_down() using stop_machine_run(). Since force_quiescent_state is invoked from irqs disabled section, stop_machine_run() won't be executing while a cpu is executing force_quiescent_state(). Hence the cpu_online_map is stable while we're in the irq disabled section. However, a cpu might have been offlined _just_ before we disabled irqs while entering force_quiescent_state(). And rcu subsystem might not yet have handled the CPU_DEAD notification, leading to the offlined cpu's bit being set in the rcp->cpumask. Hence cpumask = (rcp->cpumask & cpu_online_map) to prevent sending smp_reschedule() to an offlined CPU. Here's the timeline: CPU_A CPU_B -------------------------------------------------------------- cpu_down(): . . . . . stop_machine(): /* disables preemption, . * and irqs */ . . . . . take_cpu_down(); . . . . . . . cpu_disable(); /*this removes cpu . *from cpu_online_map . */ . . . . . restart_machine(); /* enables irqs */ . ------WINDOW DURING WHICH rcp->cpumask is stale --------------- . call_rcu(); . /* disables irqs here */ . .force_quiescent_state(); .CPU_DEAD: .for_each_cpu(rcp->cpumask) . . smp_send_reschedule(); . . . . WARN_ON() for offlined CPU! . . . rcu_cpu_notify: . -------- WINDOW ENDS ------------------------------------------ rcu_offline_cpu() /* Which calls cpu_quiet() * which removes * cpu from rcp->cpumask. */ If a new batch was started just before calling stop_machine_run(), the "tobe-offlined" cpu is still present in rcp-cpumask. During a cpu-offline, from take_cpu_down(), we queue an rt-prio idle task as the next task to be picked by the scheduler. We also call cpu_disable() which will disable any further interrupts and remove the cpu's bit from the cpu_online_map. Once the stop_machine_run() successfully calls take_cpu_down(), it calls schedule(). That's the last time a schedule is called on the offlined cpu, and hence the last time when rdp->passed_quiesc will be set to 1 through rcu_qsctr_inc(). But the cpu_quiet() will be on this cpu will be called only when the next RCU_SOFTIRQ occurs on this CPU. So at this time, the offlined CPU is still set in rcp->cpumask. Now coming back to the idle_task which truely offlines the CPU, it does check for a pending RCU and raises the softirq, since it will find rdp->passed_quiesc to be 0 in this case. However, since the cpu is offline I am not sure if the softirq will trigger on the CPU. Even if it doesn't the rcu_offline_cpu() will find that rcp->completed is not the same as rcp->cur, which means that our cpu could be holding up the grace period progression. Hence we call cpu_quiet() and move ahead. But because of the window explained in the timeline, we could still have a call_rcu() before the RCU subsystem executes it's CPU_DEAD notification, and we send smp_send_reschedule() to offlined cpu while trying to force the quiescent states. The appended patch adds comments and prevents checking for offlined cpu everytime. cpu_online_map is updated by the _cpu_down() using stop_machine_run(). Since force_quiescent_state is invoked from irqs disabled section, stop_machine_run() won't be executing while a cpu is executing force_quiescent_state(). Hence the cpu_online_map is stable while we're in the irq disabled section.

18ce375 Properly notify block layer of sync writes fsync_buffers_list() and sync_dirty_buffer() both issue async writes and then immediately wait on them. Conceptually, that makes them sync writes and we should treat them as such so that the IO schedulers can handle them appropriately. This patch fixes a write starvation issue that Lin Ming reported, where xx is stuck for more than 2 minutes because of a large number of synchronous IO in the system: INFO: task kjournald:20558 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

d585d0b block: Fix the starving writes bug in the anticipatory IO scheduler AS scheduler alternates between issuing read and write batches. It does the batch switch only after all requests from the previous batch are completed. When switching to a write batch, if there is an on-going read request, it waits for its completion and indicates its intention of switching by setting ad->changed_batch and the new direction but does not update the batch_expire_time for the new write batch which it does in the case of no previous pending requests. On completion of the read request, it sees that we were waiting for the switch and schedules work for kblockd right away and resets the ad->changed_data flag. Now when kblockd enters dispatch_request where it is expected to pick up a write request, it in turn ends the write batch because the batch_expire_timer was not updated and shows the expire timestamp for the previous batch. This results in the write starvation for all the cases where there is the intention for switching to a write batch, but there is a previous in-flight read request and the batch gets reverted to a read_batch right away. This also holds true in the reverse case (switching from a write batch to a read batch with an in-flight write request). I've checked that this bug exists on 2.6.11, 2.6.18, 2.6.24 and linux-2.6-block git HEAD. I've tested the fix on x86 platforms with SCSI drives where the driver asks for the next request while a current request is in-flight. This patch is based off linux-2.6-block git HEAD. Bug reproduction: A simple scenario which reproduces this bug is: - dd if=/dev/hda3 of=/dev/null & - lilo The lilo takes forever to complete. This can also be reproduced fairly easily with the earlier dd and another test program doing msync(). The example test program below should print out a message after every iteration but it simply hangs forever. With this bugfix it makes forward progress. ==== Example test program using msync() (thanks to suleiman AT google DOT com) inline uint64_t rdtsc(void) { int64_t tsc; __asm __volatile("rdtsc" : "=A" (tsc)); return (tsc); } int main(int argc, char **argv) { struct stat st; uint64_t e, s, t; char *p, q; long i; int fd; if (argc < 2) { printf("Usage: %s <file>\n", argv[0]); return (1); } if ((fd = open(argv[1], O_RDWR | O_NOATIME)) < 0) err(1, "open"); if (fstat(fd, &st) < 0) err(1, "fstat"); p = mmap(NULL, st.st_size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); t = 0; for (i = 0; i < 1000; i++) { *p = 0; msync(p, 4096, MS_SYNC); s = rdtsc(); *p = 0; __asm __volatile(""::: "memory"); e = rdtsc(); if (argc > 2) printf("%d: %lld cycles %jd %jd\n", i, e - s, (intmax_t)s, (intmax_t)e); t += e - s; } printf("average time: %lld cycles\n", t / 1000); return (0); } Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Acked-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com> 01 July 2008, 07:06:42 UTC
