i386: fix regression, endless loop in ptrace singlestep over an int80

The commit 635cf99a80f4ebee59d70eb64bb85ce829e4591f introduced a
regression.  Executing a ptrace single step after certain int80
accesses will infinitely loop and never advance the PC.

The TIF_SINGLESTEP check should be done on the return from the syscall
and not before it.

I loops on each single step on the pop right after the int80 which writes out
to the console.  At that point you can issue as many single steps as you want
and it will not advance any further.

The test case is below:

/* Test whether singlestep through an int80 syscall works.
 */
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>

17 years agoFix elf_core_dump() when writing arch specific notes (spu coredumps)
Michael Ellerman [Fri, 6 Jul 2007 09:39:49 +0000 (02:39 -0700)]
Fix elf_core_dump() when writing arch specific notes (spu coredumps)

elf_core_dump() supports dumping arch specific ELF notes, via the #define
ELF_CORE_WRITE_EXTRA_NOTES.  Currently the only user of this is the powerpc
spu coredump code.

There is a bug in the handling of foffset WRT the arch notes, which causes
us to erroneously increment foffset by the size of the arch notes, leaving
a block of zeroes in the file, and causing all subsequent data in the file
to be at <supposed position> + <arch note size>.  eg:

  LOAD  0x050000 0x00100000 0x00000000 0x20000 0x20000 R E 0x10000

Tells us we should have a chunk of data at 0x50000.  The truth is the data
is at 0x90dbc = 0x50000 + 0x40dbc (the size of the arch notes).

This bug prevents gdb from reading the core file correctly.

The simplest fix is to simply remember the size of the arch notes, and add
it to foffset after we've written the arch notes.  The only drawback is
that if the arch code doesn't write as many bytes as it said it would, we
end up with a broken core dump again.  For now I think that's a reasonable
requirement.

Tested on a Cell blade, gdb no longer complains about the core file being
bogus.

While I'm here I should point out that the spu coredump code does not work
if we're dumping to a pipe - we'll have to wait for 23 to fix that.

[MIPS] Fix scheduling latency issue on 24K, 34K and 74K cores

need_resched has returned 0 an interrupt might set TIF_NEED_RESCHED but
we've just completed the test so go to sleep anyway.  This would be
trivial to fix by just disabling interrupts during that sequence as in:

        local_irq_disable();
        if (!need_resched())
                __asm__("wait");
        local_irq_enable();

but the processor architecture leaves it undefined if a processor calling
WAIT with interrupts disabled will ever restart its pipeline and indeed
some processors have made use of the freedom provided by the architecture
definition.  This has been resolved and the Config7.WII bit indicates that
the use of WAIT is safe on 24K, 24KE and 34K cores.  It also is safe on
74K starting revision 2.1.0 so enable the use of WAIT with interrupts
disabled for 74K based on a c0_prid of at least that.

Fix slab redzone alignment

Commit b46b8f19c9cd435ecac4d9d12b39d78c137ecd66 fixed a couple of bugs
by switching the redzone to 64 bits. Unfortunately, it neglected to
ensure that the _second_ redzone, after the slab object, is aligned
correctly. This caused illegal instruction faults on sparc32, which for
some reason not entirely clear to me are not trapped and fixed up.

Two things need to be done to fix this:
  - increase the object size, rounding up to alignof(long long) so
    that the second redzone can be aligned correctly.
  - If SLAB_STORE_USER is set but alignof(long long)==8, allow a
    full 64 bits of space for the user word at the end of the buffer,
    even though we may not _use_ the whole 64 bits.

This patch should be a no-op on any 64-bit architecture or any 32-bit
architecture where alignof(long long) == 4. Of the others, it's tested
on ppc32 by myself and a very similar patch was tested on sparc32 by
Mark Fortescue, who reported the new problem.

Also, fix the conditions for FORCED_DEBUG, which hadn't been adjusted to
the new sizes. Again noticed by Mark.

dio: remove bogus refcounting BUG_ON

Badari Pulavarty reported a case of this BUG_ON is triggering during
testing.  It's completely bogus and should be removed.

It's trying to notice if we left references to the dio hanging around in
the sync case.  They should have been dropped as IO completed while this
path was in dio_await_completion().  This condition will also be
checked, via some twisty logic, by the BUG_ON(ret != -EIOCBQUEUED) a few
lines lower.  So to start this BUG_ON() is redundant.

More fatally, it's dereferencing dio-> after having dropped its
reference.  It's only safe to dereference the dio after releasing the
lock if the final reference was just dropped.  Another CPU might free
the dio in bio completion and reuse the memory after this path drops the
dio lock but before the BUG_ON() is evaluated.

This patch passed aio+dio regression unit tests and aio-stress on ext3.

The reason? The ACPI layer registered the PCI MMIO range as being busy
too early, before PCI enumeration had happened, causing the PCI layer to

cinergyT2.c does cancel_delayed_work() + flush_scheduled_work() while
holding cinergyt2->sem. This leads to deadlock because work->func()
needs the same mutex to complete. Another bug is that this code in fact
can't reliably stop the re-arming delayed_work.

Convert this code to use cancel_rearming_delayed_work() and move it
out of ->sem. Another mutex, ->wq_sem, was added to protect against the
concurrent open/resume.

This patch is a horrible hack to fix the lockup which happens in practice.

it will work.

It turns out the problem is with norm changing and the crop support that was
added in 2.6.21.  The driver defaults to PAL, and keeps the last norm it was

This patch removes the direct setting of btv->tvnorm in the V4L1 ioctl

libata: PATA-mode fixes for sis_sata

Changed PATA handler for PATA-ports used by sata_sis.
This patch was originally submitted by Jeff Garzik.

Added PCI-ID 1180 for SiS966 Controller in pata_sis.
The 1180 mode is fully compatible to other SiS PATA-controller.

The PCI-ID 1183 is SATA in PATA-emulation, but not fully compatible
to SiS5513/5518. sata_sis.c is forwarding this ID to pata_sis.
1183 is not working if simply added to pata_sis.
This handling fixes issues with SiS968.

SATA or PATA driver configurations.
