* add-vmcore: add a prefix "VMCOREINFO_" to the vmcoreinfo macrosKen'ichi Ohmichi2007-10-171-10/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | Add a prefix "VMCOREINFO_" to the vmcoreinfo macros. Old vmcoreinfo macros were defined as generic names SYMBOL/SIZE/OFFSET /LENGTH/CONFIG, and it is impossible to grep for them. So these names should be changed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch set frees the restriction that makedumpfile users should install a vmlinux file (including the debugging information) into each system. makedumpfile command is the dump filtering feature for kdump. It creates a small dumpfile by filtering unnecessary pages for the analysis. To distinguish unnecessary pages, it needs a vmlinux file including the debugging information. These days, the debugging package becomes a huge file, and it is hard to install it into each system. To solve the problem, kdump developers discussed it at lkml and kexec-ml. As the result, we reached the conclusion that necessary information for dump filtering (called "vmcoreinfo") should be embedded into the first kernel file and it should be accessed through /proc/vmcore during the second kernel. (http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0707.0/1806.html) Dan Aloni created the patch set for the above implementation. (http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0707.1/1053.html) And I updated it for multi architectures and memory models.

* x86: replace NT_PRXFPREG with ELF_CORE_XFPREG_TYPE #defineMark Nelson2007-10-171-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace NT_PRXFPREG with ELF_CORE_XFPREG_TYPE in the coredump code which allows for more flexibility in the note type for the state of 'extended floating point' implementations in coredumps. New note types can now be added with an appropriate #define. This does #define ELF_CORE_XFPREG_TYPE to be NT_PRXFPREG in all current users so there's are no change in behaviour. This will let us use different note types on powerpc for the Altivec/VMX state that some PowerPC cpus have (G4, PPC970, POWER6) and for the SPE (signal processing extension) state that some embedded PowerPC cpus from Freescale have.

* | | Do not depend on MAX_ORDER when grouping pages by mobilityMel Gorman2007-10-162-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently mobility grouping works at the MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES level. This makes sense for the majority of users where this is also the huge page size. However, on platforms like ia64 where the huge page size is runtime configurable it is desirable to group at a lower order. On x86_64 and occasionally on x86, the hugepage size may not always be MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES. This patch groups pages together based on the value of HUGETLB_PAGE_ORDER. It uses a compile-time constant if possible and a variable where the huge page size is runtime configurable. It is assumed that grouping should be done at the lowest sensible order and that the user would not want to override this. If this is not true, page_block order could be forced to a variable initialised via a boot-time kernel parameter. One potential issue with this patch is that IA64 now parses hugepagesz with early_param() instead of __setup(). __setup() is called after the memory allocator has been initialised and the pageblock bitmaps already setup. In tests on one IA64 there did not seem to be any problem with using early_param() and in fact may be more correct as it guarantees the parameter is handled before the parsing of hugepages=.

* | | flush icache before set_pte() on ia64: flush icache at set_pteKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2007-10-161-4/+1

This is too late. This patch removes lazy_mmu_prot_update and add modfied set_pte() for flushing if necessary. This patch flush icache of a page when new pte has exec bit. && new pte has present bit && new pte is user's page. && (old *ptep is not present || new pte's pfn is not same to old *ptep's ptn) && new pte's page has no Pg_arch_1 bit. Pg_arch_1 is set when a page is cache consistent. I think this condition checks are much easier to understand than considering "Where sync_icache_dcache() should be inserted ?". pte_user() for ia64 was removed by http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/6/12/67 as clean-up. So, I added it again.

| * | [IA64] Fix race when multiple cpus go through MCARuss Anderson2007-10-121-22/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Additional testing uncovered a situation where the MCA recovery code could hang due to a race condition. According to the SAL spec, SAL sends a rendezvous interrupt to all but the first CPU that goes into MCA. This includes other CPUs that go into MCA at the same time. Those other CPUs will go into the linux MCA handler (rather than the slave loop) with the rendezvous interrupt pending. When all the CPUs have completed MCA processing and the last monarch completes, freeing all the CPUs, the CPUs with the pended rendezvous interrupt then go into the ia64_mca_rendez_int_handler(). In ia64_mca_rendez_int_handler() the CPUs get marked as rendezvoused, but then leave the handler (due to no MCA). That leaves the CPUs marked as rendezvoused _before_ the next MCA event. When the next MCA hits, the monarch will mistakenly believe that all the CPUs are rendezvoused when they are not, opening up a window where a CPU can get stuck in the slave loop. This patch avoids leaving CPUs marked as rendezvoused when they are not. Signed-off-by: Russ Anderson <rja@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

What was happening is that ia64_wait_for_slaves() would check to see if all the slave CPUs had rendezvoused. If any had not, it would wait 1 millisecond then check again. If any CPUs had still not rendezvoused, it would wait 5 seconds before checking again. On some configs the rendezvous takes more than 1 millisecond, causing the code to wait the full 5 seconds, even though the last CPU rendezvoused after only a few milliseconds. The fix is to check every 1 millisecond to see if all the cpus have rendezvoused. After 5 seconds the code concludes the CPUs will never rendezvous (same as before). The MCA code is, by definition, not performance critical, but a needless delay of 5 seconds is senseless. The 5 seconds also adds up quickly when running the error injection code in a loop. This patch both simplifies the code and removes the needless delay. Signed-off-by: Russ Anderson <rja@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This driver for HPQ5001 devices installs a global ACPI OpRegion handler. AML methods can use this OpRegion to call native firmware entry points. ACPI does not define a mechanism for AML methods to call native firmware interfaces such as PAL or SAL. This OpRegion handler adds such a mechanism. After the handler is installed, an AML method can call native firmware by storing the arguments and firmware entry point to specific offsets in the OpRegion. When AML reads the "return value" offset from the OpRegion, this handler loads up the arguments, makes the firmware call, and returns the result.

Also cleanup reference to hotplug notifier callback function from this function and replace with cache_add_dev(), which could also enable us to use other tricks to replace __cpuinit{data} annotations, as recently discussed on this list. cache_shared_cpu_map_setup() is only ever called from __cpuinit-marked functions hence both its definitions (SMP or !SMP) are candidates for __cpuinit itself.

| |/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Every user of the network device notifiers is either a protocol stack or a pseudo device. If a protocol stack that does not have support for multiple network namespaces receives an event for a device that is not in the initial network namespace it quite possibly can get confused and do the wrong thing. To avoid problems until all of the protocol stacks are converted this patch modifies all netdev event handlers to ignore events on devices that are not in the initial network namespace.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When PTRACE_SYSCALL was used and then PTRACE_DETACH is used, the TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE flag is left set on the formerly-traced task. This means that when a new tracer comes along and does PTRACE_ATTACH, it's possible he gets a syscall tracing stop even though he's never used PTRACE_SYSCALL. This happens if the task was in the middle of a system call when the second PTRACE_ATTACH was done. The symptom is an unexpected SIGTRAP when the tracer thinks that only SIGSTOP should have been provoked by his ptrace calls so far. A few machines already fixed this in ptrace_disable (i386, ia64, m68k). But all other machines do not, and still have this bug. On x86_64, this constitutes a regression in IA32 compatibility support. Since all machines now use TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE for this, I put the clearing of TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE in the generic ptrace_detach code rather than adding it to every other machine's ptrace_disable.
