PNP: disable PNP motherboard resources that overlap PCI BARs

Some BIOSes have PNP motherboard devices with resources that
partially overlap PCI BARs.  The PNP system driver claims these
motherboard resources, which prevents the normal PCI driver from
requesting them later.

This patch disables the PNP resources that conflict with PCI BARs
so they won't be claimed by the PNP system driver.

Of course, this only works if PCI devices have already been enumerated.
Currently this is the case because PCI devices are discovered before
any PNP init via this path:

    acpi_pci_root_init() -> acpi_pci_root_add() -> pci_acpi_scan_root() ->
pci_scan_bus_parented() -> pci_scan_child_bus() -> ...

Avuton Olrich tested this and confirmed that it fixes his ALSA sound
card (see http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/1/27/168).

nommu: Provide is_vmalloc_addr() stub.

Introduced in commit-id 9e2779fa281cfda13ac060753d674bbcaa23367e and
ifdef'ed out for nommu in 8ca3ed87db062201e1fa15b64a9214e193fc3a8a, both
approaches end up breaking the nommu build in different ways. An
impressive feat for a 2-liner.

Current is_vmalloc_addr() users fall in to two camps:

- Determining whether to use vfree()/kfree()
- Whether to do vmlist traversal (only /proc/kcore).

Since we don't support /proc/kcore on nommu, that leaves the
vfree()/kfree() determination use cases. nommu vfree() happens to be a
wrapper to kfree() anyways, so is_vmalloc_addr() can always return 0

x86: remove quicklists

quicklists cause a serious memory leak on 32-bit x86,
as documented at:

  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9991

the reason is that the quicklist pool is a special-purpose
cache that grows out of proportion. It is not accounted for
anywhere and users have no way to even realize that it's
the quicklists that are causing RAM usage spikes. It was
supposed to be a relatively small pool, but as demonstrated
by KOSAKI Motohiro, they can grow as large as:

  Quicklists:    1194304 kB

given how much trouble this code has caused historically,
and given that Andrew objected to its introduction on x86
(years ago), the best option at this point is to remove them.

[ any performance benefits of caching constructed pgds should
  be implemented in a more generic way (possibly within the page

16 years agox86: ia32 syscall restart fix
Roland McGrath [Fri, 29 Feb 2008 03:57:07 +0000 (19:57 -0800)]
x86: ia32 syscall restart fix

The code to restart syscalls after signals depends on checking for a
negative orig_ax, and for particular negative -ERESTART* values in ax.
These fields are 64 bits and for a 32-bit task they get zero-extended.
The syscall restart behavior is lost, a regression from a native 32-bit
kernel and from 64-bit tasks' behavior.

This patch fixes the problem by doing sign-extension where it matters.

For orig_ax, the only time the value should be -1 but winds up as
0x0ffffffff is via a 32-bit ptrace call. So the patch changes ptrace to
sign-extend the 32-bit orig_eax value when it's stored; it doesn't
change the checks on orig_ax, though it uses the new current_syscall()
inline to better document the subtle importance of the used of
signedness there.

The ax value is stored a lot of ways and it seems hard to get them all
sign-extended at their origins. So for that, we use the
current_syscall_ret() to sign-extend it only for 32-bit tasks at the
time of the -ERESTART* comparisons.

keep rd->online and cpu_online_map in sync

It is possible to allow the root-domain cache of online cpus to
become out of sync with the global cpu_online_map.  This is because we
currently trigger removal of cpus too early in the notifier chain.
Other DOWN_PREPARE handlers may in fact run and reconfigure the
root-domain topology, thereby stomping on our own offline handling.

The end result is that rd->online may become out of sync with
cpu_online_map, which results in potential task misrouting.

So change the offline handling to be more tightly coupled with the
global offline process by triggering on CPU_DYING intead of
CPU_DOWN_PREPARE.

fix BIOS PCI config cycle buglet causing ACPI boot regression

I figured out another ACPI related regression today.

randconfig testing triggered an early boot-time hang on a laptop of mine
(32-bit x86, config attached) - the screen was scrolling ACPI AML
exceptions [with no serial port and no early debugging available].

v2.6.24 works fine on that laptop with the same .config, so after a few
hours of bisection (had to restart it 3 times - other regressions
interacted), it honed in on this commit:

|     acpi: fix acpi_os_read_pci_configuration() misuse of raw_pci_read()

reverting this commit ontop of -rc5 gave a correctly booting kernel.

But this commit fixes a real bug so the real question is, why did it
break the bootup?

After quite some head-scratching, the following change stood out:

-                               pci_id->bus = tu8;
+                               pci_id->bus = val;

pci_id->bus is defined as u16:

   struct acpi_pci_id {
           u16 segment;
           u16 bus;
   ...

and 'tu8' changed from u8 to u32. So previously we'd unconditionally
mask the return value of acpi_os_read_pci_configuration()
(raw_pci_read()) to 8 bits, but now we just trust whatever comes back
from the PCI access routines and only crop it to 16 bits.

But if the high 8 bits of that result contains any noise then we'll
write that into ACPI's PCI ID descriptor and confuse the heck out of the
rest of ACPI.

So lets check the PCI-BIOS code on that theory. We have this codepath
for 8-bit accesses (arch/x86/pci/pcbios.c:pci_bios_read()):

        switch (len) {
        case 1:
                __asm__("lcall *(%%esi); cld\n\t"
                        "jc 1f\n\t"
                        "xor %%ah, %%ah\n"
                        "1:"
                        : "=c" (*value),
                          "=a" (result)
                        : "1" (PCIBIOS_READ_CONFIG_BYTE),
                          "b" (bx),
                          "D" ((long)reg),
                          "S" (&pci_indirect));

Aha! The "=a" output constraint puts the full 32 bits of EAX into
*value. But if the BIOS's routines set any of the high bits to nonzero,
we'll return a value with more set in it than intended.

The other, more common PCI access methods (v1 and v2 PCI reads) clear
out the high bits already, for example pci_conf1_read() does:

        switch (len) {
        case 1:
                *value = inb(0xCFC + (reg & 3));

which explicitly converts the return byte up to 32 bits and zero-extends
it.

So zero-extending the result in the PCI-BIOS read routine fixes the
regression on my laptop. ( It might fix some other long-standing issues
we had with PCI-BIOS during the past decade ... ) Both 8-bit and 16-bit
accesses were buggy.

16 years agorcu: move PREEMPT_RCU config option back under PREEMPT
Paul E. McKenney [Mon, 10 Mar 2008 18:43:57 +0000 (11:43 -0700)]
rcu: move PREEMPT_RCU config option back under PREEMPT

The original preemptible-RCU patch put the choice between classic and
preemptible RCU into kernel/Kconfig.preempt, which resulted in build failures
on machines not supporting CONFIG_PREEMPT.  This choice was therefore moved to
init/Kconfig, which worked, but placed the choice between classic and
preemptible RCU at the top level, a very obtuse choice indeed.

This patch changes from the Kconfig "choice" mechanism to a pair of booleans,
only one of which (CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU) is user-visible, and is located in
kernel/Kconfig.preempt, where one would expect it to be.  The other
(CONFIG_CLASSIC_RCU) is in init/Kconfig so that it is available to all
architectures, hopefully avoiding build breakage.  Thanks to Roman Zippel for
suggesting this approach.

hugetlb: correct page count for surplus huge pages

zero.  Regular allocations into the pool from the buddy are "freed" into the
pool which results in their page_count dropping to zero.  However, surplus
pages can be directly utilized by the caller without first being freed to the
pool.  Therefore, a call to put_page_testzero() is in order so that such a
page will be handed to the caller with a correct count.

This has not affected end users because the bad page count is reset before the
page is handed off.  However, under CONFIG_DEBUG_VM this triggers a BUG when

Lee Schermerhorn [Mon, 10 Mar 2008 18:43:45 +0000 (11:43 -0700)]
mempolicy: fix reference counting bugs

Address 3 known bugs in the current memory policy reference counting method.
I have a series of patches to rework the reference counting to reduce overhead
in the allocation path.  However, that series will require testing in -mm once
I repost it.

1) alloc_page_vma() does not release the extra reference taken for
   vma/shared mempolicy when the mode == MPOL_INTERLEAVE.  This can result in
   leaking mempolicy structures.  This is probably occurring, but not being
   noticed.

   Fix:  add the conditional release of the reference.

2) hugezonelist unconditionally releases a reference on the mempolicy when
   mode == MPOL_INTERLEAVE.  This can result in decrementing the reference
   count for system default policy [should have no ill effect] or premature
   freeing of task policy.  If this occurred, the next allocation using task
   mempolicy would use the freed structure and probably BUG out.

   Fix:  add the necessary check to the release.

3) The current reference counting method assumes that vma 'get_policy()'
   methods automatically add an extra reference a non-NULL returned mempolicy.
    This is true for shmem_get_policy() used by tmpfs mappings, including
   regular page shm segments.  However, SHM_HUGETLB shm's, backed by
   hugetlbfs, just use the vma policy without the extra reference.  This
   results in freeing of the vma policy on the first allocation, with reuse of
   the freed mempolicy structure on subsequent allocations.

   Fix: Rather than add another condition to the conditional reference
   release, which occur in the allocation path, just add a reference when
   returning the vma policy in shm_get_policy() to match the assumptions.

libata: allow LLDs w/o any reset method

Some old SFF controllers don't have any way to reset the channel.
Currently, this isn't supported and libata EH causes an oops.  Allow
LLDs w/o any reset method and just assume ATA class in such cases.

[NETFILTER]: nf_queue: don't return error when unregistering a non-existant handler

Commit ce7663d84:

[NETFILTER]: nfnetlink_queue: don't unregister handler of other subsystem

changed nf_unregister_queue_handler to return an error when attempting to
unregister a queue handler that is not identical to the one passed in.
This is correct in case we really do have a different queue handler already
registered, but some existing userspace code always does an unbind before
bind and aborts if that fails, so try to be nice and return success in
that case.

Similar to the nfnetlink_log problem, nfnetlink_queue incorrectly
returns -EPERM when binding or unbinding to an address family and
queueing instance 0 exists and is owned by a different process. Unlike
nfnetlink_log it previously completes the operation, but it is still
incorrect.

[NETFILTER]: nfnetlink_log: fix EPERM when binding/unbinding and instance 0 exists

When binding or unbinding to an address family, the res_id is usually set
to zero. When logging instance 0 already exists and is owned by a different
process, this makes nfunl_recv_config return -EPERM without performing
the bind operation.

Since no operation on the foreign logging instance itself was requested,
this is incorrect. Move bind/unbind commands before the queue instance
permissions checks.

Also remove an incorrect comment.

[NETFILTER]: xt_time: fix failure to match on Sundays

From: Andrew Schulman <andrex@alumni.utexas.net>

xt_time_match() in net/netfilter/xt_time.c in kernel 2.6.24 never
matches on Sundays. On my host I have a rule like

    iptables -A OUTPUT -m time --weekdays Sun -j REJECT

and it never matches. The problem is in localtime_2(), which uses

    r->weekday = (4 + r->dse) % 7;

to map the epoch day onto a weekday in {0,...,6}. In particular this
gives 0 for Sundays. But 0 has to be wrong; a weekday of 0 can never
match. xt_time_match() has

    if (!(info->weekdays_match & (1 << current_time.weekday)))
        return false;

and when current_time.weekday = 0, the result of the & is always
zero, even when info->weekdays_match = XT_TIME_ALL_WEEKDAYS = 0xFE.
