Benjamin Herrenschmidt [Fri, 20 Oct 2006 01:47:18 +0000 (11:47 +1000)]
[POWERPC] Support feature fixups in vdso's

This patch reworks the feature fixup mecanism so vdso's can be fixed up.
The main issue was that the construct:

        .long   label  (or .llong on 64 bits)

will not work in the case of a shared library like the vdso. It will
generate an empty placeholder in the fixup table along with a reloc,
which is not something we can deal with in the vdso.

The idea here (thanks Alan Modra !) is to instead use something like:

1:
        .long   label - 1b

That is, the feature fixup tables no longer contain addresses of bits of
code to patch, but offsets of such code from the fixup table entry
itself. That is properly resolved by ld when building the .so's. I've
modified the fixup mecanism generically to use that method for the rest
of the kernel as well.

Another trick is that the 32 bits vDSO included in the 64 bits kernel
need to have a table in the 64 bits format. However, gas does not
support 32 bits code with a statement of the form:

        .llong  label - 1b  (Or even just .llong label)

That is, it cannot emit the right fixup/relocation for the linker to use
to assign a 32 bits address to an .llong field. Thus, in the specific
case of the 32 bits vdso built as part of the 64 bits kernel, we are
using a modified macro that generates:

        .long   0xffffffff
        .llong  label - 1b

Note that is assumes that the value is negative which is enforced by
the .lds (those offsets are always negative as the .text is always
before the fixup table and gas doesn't support emiting the reloc the
other way around).

[POWERPC] Simplify stolen time calculation

In calculating stolen time, we were trying to actually account for time
spent in the hypervisor.  We don't really have enough information to do
that accurately, so don't try.  Instead, we now calculate stolen time as
time that the current cpu thread is not actually dispatching instructions.
On chips without a PURR, we cannot do this, so stolen time will always
be zero.  On chips with a PURR, this is merely the difference between
the elapsed PURR values and the elapsed TB values.

This gives us much more sane vaules from tools such as mpstat, even if
they are still a bit strange e.g. 2 busy threads on one cpu will both
appear to have 50% user time and 50% stolen time while 1 busy thread on
a cpu will look like 100% user on one of them and 100% idle on the other.

CCISS was producing warnings about shifts being greater than the size of

because it's calling do_div on a 32-bit quantity.  Upon further

18 years ago[PATCH] sky2: 88E803X transmit lockup

[PATCH] sky2: 88E803X transmit lockup

The reason sky2 driver was locking up on transmit on the Yukon-FE chipset
is that it was misconfiguring the internal RAM buffer so the transmitter
and receiver were sharing the same space.

The code assumed there was 16K of RAM on Yukon-FE (taken from vendor driver
sk98lin which is even more f*cked up on this). Then it assigned based on that.
The giveaway was that the registers would only hold 9bits so both RX/TX
had 0..1ff for space. It is a wonder it worked at all!

This patch addresses this, and fixes an easily reproducible hang on Transmit.
Only the Yukon-FE chip is Marvell 88E803X (10/100 only) are affected.

[PATCH] x86-64: Revert timer routing behaviour back to 2.6.16 state

By default route the 8254 over the 8259 and only disable
it on ATI boards where this causes double timer interrupts.

This should unbreak some Nvidia boards where the timer doesn't

VIA board also seemed to have a little trouble with the disabled

For 2.6.20 we'll try both dynamically without black listing, but I think
for .19 this is the safer approach because it has been already well tested

as i386.

[PATCH] x86-64: Put more than one cpu in TARGET_CPUS

TARGET_CPUS is the default irq routing poicy.  It specifies which cpus the
kernel should aim an irq at.  In physflat delivery mode we can route an irq to
a single cpu.  But that doesn't mean our default policy should only be a
single cpu is allowed.

By allowing the irq routing code to select from multiple cpus this enables
systems with more irqs then we can service on a single processor to actually
work.

I just audited and tested the code and irqbalance doesn't care, and the
io_apic.c doesn't care if we have extra cpus in the mask.  Everything will use
or assume we are using the lowest numbered cpu in the mask if we can't use
them all.

So this should result in no behavior changes except on systems that need it.

Revert "[mv643xx] Add pci device table for auto module loading."

This reverts commit 4596c75c23dde2623cbeec69357d5eb13d28387e as
requested by Olaf Hering. It causes compile errors, and says Olaf:

  "This change is also wrong, the autoloading works perfect with 2.6.18,
   no need to add random PCI ids.

   See commit a0245f7ad5214cb00131d7cd176446e067c913dc, platform devices

[PATCH] knfsd: fix race that can disable NFS server

This patch is suitable for just about any 2.6 kernel.  It should go in
2.6.19 and 2.6.18.2 and possible even the .17 and .16 stable series.

This is a long standing bug that seems to have only recently become
apparent, presumably due to increasing use of NFS over TCP - many
distros seem to be making it the default.

The SK_CONN bit gets set when a listening socket may be ready
for an accept, just as SK_DATA is set when data may be available.

It is entirely possible for svc_tcp_accept to be called with neither
of these set.  It doesn't happen often but there is a small race in
svc_sock_enqueue as SK_CONN and SK_DATA are tested outside the
spin_lock.  They could be cleared immediately after the test and
before the lock is gained.

This normally shouldn't be a problem.  The sockets are non-blocking so
trying to read() or accept() when ther is nothing to do is not a problem.

However: svc_tcp_recvfrom makes the decision "Should I accept() or
should I read()" based on whether SK_CONN is set or not.  This usually
works but is not safe.  The decision should be based on whether it is
a TCP_LISTEN socket or a TCP_CONNECTED socket.

It seems to happened on ext3_truncate() path from stack trace. Then,
maybe the following case may trigger J_ASSERT(transaction->t_updates > 0).

ext3_truncate()

                transaction->t_updates--;

    returns -EROFS without transaction->t_updates++;

    -> ext3_journal_stop()
        -> journal_stop()

If journal was aborted in middle of journal_restart(), ext3_truncate()
may trigger J_ASSERT().
