| * msi: Make MSI useable more architecturesEric W. Biederman2007-02-072-13/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The arch hooks arch_setup_msi_irq and arch_teardown_msi_irq are now responsible for allocating and freeing the linux irq in addition to setting up the the linux irq to work with the interrupt. arch_setup_msi_irq now takes a pci_device and a msi_desc and returns an irq. With this change in place this code should be useable by all platforms except those that won't let the OS touch the hardware like ppc RTAS. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

| * msi: Kill the msi_desc array.Eric W. Biederman2007-02-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We need to be able to get from an irq number to a struct msi_desc. The msi_desc array in msi.c had several short comings the big one was that it could not be used outside of msi.c. Using irq_data in struct irq_desc almost worked except on some architectures irq_data needs to be used for something else. So this patch adds a msi_desc pointer to irq_desc, adds the appropriate wrappers and changes all of the msi code to use them. The dynamic_irq_init/cleanup code was tweaked to ensure the new field is left in a well defined state. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

There is a SSDT table for every occupied slot on a root bus, containing info for every PPB and/or device on the bus. The SSDTs will be dynamically loaded/unloaded at hotplug enable/disable. Platform specific information that is currently passed via a SAL call, will now be passed via the Vendor resource in the ACPI Device object(s) defined in each SSDT.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ACPI 3.0 incorporated the SRAT spec, upping the table version to 2, and extending the size of the proximity domain from 1-byte to 4-bytes. This extension was into a reserved field that firmware should set to 0, but the HP simulator had non-zero values there resulting in unexpected huge numbers. So mask the domain down to 8-bits for now. A more general fix will be to check the table version supplied by firmware and get paranoid about reserved fields.

* | | [IA64] register memory ranges in a consistent mannerBob Picco2007-02-052-3/+20

There doesn't appear any reason to me why FLATMEM versus DISCONTIG_MEM should register memory to add_active_range with different code. So I've changed the code into a common implementation. The other subtle issue fixed by this patch was calling add_active_range in count_node_pages before granule aligning is performed. We were lucky with 16MB granules but not so with 64MB granules. count_node_pages has reserved regions filtered out and as a consequence linked kernel text and data aren't covered by calls to count_node_pages. So linked kernel regions wasn't reported to add_active_regions. This resulted in free_initmem causing numerous bad_page reports. This won't occur with this patch because now all known memory regions are reported by register_active_ranges.

* | | [IA64] Clear IRQ affinity when unregisteredAlex Williamson2007-02-051-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we offline a CPU, migrate_irqs() tries to determine whether the affinity bits of the IRQ descriptor match any of the remaining online CPUs. If not, it fixes up the interrupt to point somewhere else. Unfortunately, if an IRQ is unregistered the IRQ descriptor may still have affinity to the CPU being offlined, but the no_irq_chip handler doesn't provide a set_affinity function. This causes us to hit the WARN_ON in migrate_irqs(). The easiest solution seems to be setting all the bits in the affinity mask when the last interrupt is removed from the vector. I hit this on an older kernel with Xen/ia64 using driver domains (so it probably needs more testing on upstream). Xen essentially uses the bind/unbind interface in sysfs to unregister a device from a driver and thus unregister the interrupt.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a NULL-pointer dereference in ia64_machine_kexec(). The variable ia64_kimage is set in machine_kexec_prepare() which is called from sys_kexec_load(). If kdump wasn't configured before, ia64_kimage is NULL. machine_kdump_on_init() passes ia64_kimage() to machine_kexec() which assumes a valid value.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I encountered one problem when running ptrace test case the situation is this: traced process's syscall parameter needs to be accessed, but for sys_clone system call with clone_flag (CLONE_VFORK | CLONE_VM | SIGCHLD) parameter. This syscall's parameter accessing result is wrong. The reason is that vforked child process mm point is the same, but tgid is different. Without this patch find_thread_for_addr will return vforked process if vforked process is also stopped, but not the thread which calls vfork syscall. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

While reviewing those patches I noticed that the features string building could be cleaned up. This patch uses snprintf() instead of strcpy() and direct character pointer manipulation. It makes the features string building safe and gets rid of the special case for features output in show_cpuinfo() Additionally I removed the (int) cast of ARRAY_SIZE, which seems to serve no purpose.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As is pointed out in http://www.gelato.org/community/view_linear.php?id=1_1036&from=authors&value=Ian%20Wienand#1_1039, if single step on break instruction, the break fault has higher priority than the single-step trap. When the break fault handler is entered, it advances the IP by 1 instruction so break instruction single-stepping is skipped, actually it is next instruction which is single stepped. This patch modifies this, it adds TIF_SINGLESTEP bit for thread flags, and generate a fake sigtrap when single stepping break instruction. Test case in attachment can verify this.

* | [PATCH] kexec: Avoid migration of already disabled irqs (ia64)Magnus Damm2007-02-031-0/+3
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes up ia64 kexec support for HP rx2620 hardware. It does this by skipping migration of already disabled irqs. This is most likely a problem on other ia64 platforms as well, but I've only been able to reproduce it on one machine so far. The full story is that handle_bad_irq() gets invoked before starting the new kernel without this patch. This seems to happen when fixup_irqs() calls generic_handle_irq() on already migrated (and disabled) irqs. So by avoiding migration of disabled irqs we stay away of handle_bad_irq(). The code has been tested on three different ia64 machines, all with good results. It is possible to trigger the same bug by offlining a processor using echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online.

The latencies were serious and unjustified by system load, often in the milliseconds range. After a patient and heroic multi-month effort of Fernando, where he tested dozens of kernels, tried various configs, boot options, test-patches of mine and provided latency traces of those incidents, the following 'smoking gun' trace was captured by him: _------=> CPU# / _-----=> irqs-off | / _----=> need-resched || / _---=> hardirq/softirq ||| / _--=> preempt-depth |||| / ||||| delay cmd pid ||||| time | caller \ / ||||| \ | / IRQ_19-1479 1D..1 0us : __trace_start_sched_wakeup (try_to_wake_up) IRQ_19-1479 1D..1 0us : __trace_start_sched_wakeup <<...>-5856> (37 0) IRQ_19-1479 1D..1 0us : __trace_start_sched_wakeup (c01262ba 0 0) IRQ_19-1479 1D..1 0us : resched_task (try_to_wake_up) IRQ_19-1479 1D..1 0us : __spin_unlock_irqrestore (try_to_wake_up) ... <idle>-0 1...1 11us!: default_idle (cpu_idle) ... <idle>-0 0Dn.1 602us : smp_apic_timer_interrupt (c0103baf 1 0) ... <...>-5856 0D..2 618us : __switch_to (__schedule) <...>-5856 0D..2 618us : __schedule <<idle>-0> (20 162) <...>-5856 0D..2 619us : __spin_unlock_irq (__schedule) <...>-5856 0...1 619us : trace_stop_sched_switched (__schedule) <...>-5856 0D..1 619us : trace_stop_sched_switched <<...>-5856> (37 0) what is visible in this trace is that CPU#1 ran try_to_wake_up() for PID:5856, it placed PID:5856 on CPU#0's runqueue and ran resched_task() for CPU#0. But it decided to not send an IPI that no CPU - due to TS_POLLING. But CPU#0 never woke up after its NEED_RESCHED bit was set, and only rescheduled to PID:5856 upon the next lapic timer IRQ. The result was a 600+ usecs latency and a missed wakeup! the bug turned out to be an idle-wakeup bug introduced into the mainline kernel this summer via an optimization in the x86_64 tree: commit 495ab9c045e1b0e5c82951b762257fe1c9d81564 Author: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Date: Mon Jun 26 13:59:11 2006 +0200 [PATCH] i386/x86-64/ia64: Move polling flag into thread_info_status During some profiling I noticed that default_idle causes a lot of memory traffic. I think that is caused by the atomic operations to clear/set the polling flag in thread_info. There is actually no reason to make this atomic - only the idle thread does it to itself, other CPUs only read it. So I moved it into ti->status. the problem is this type of change: if (!hlt_counter && boot_cpu_data.hlt_works_ok) { - clear_thread_flag(TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG); + current_thread_info()->status &= ~TS_POLLING; smp_mb__after_clear_bit(); while (!need_resched()) { local_irq_disable(); this changes clear_thread_flag() to an explicit clearing of TS_POLLING. clear_thread_flag() is defined as: clear_bit(flag, &ti->flags); and clear_bit() is a LOCK-ed atomic instruction on all x86 platforms: static inline void clear_bit(int nr, volatile unsigned long * addr) { __asm__ __volatile__( LOCK_PREFIX "btrl %1,%0" hence smp_mb__after_clear_bit() is defined as a simple compile barrier: #define smp_mb__after_clear_bit() barrier() but the explicit TS_POLLING clearing introduced by the patch: + current_thread_info()->status &= ~TS_POLLING; is not an atomic op! So the clearing of the TS_POLLING bit is freely reorderable with the reading of the NEED_RESCHED bit - and both now reside in different memory addresses. CPU idle wakeup very much depends on ordered memory ops, the clearing of the TS_POLLING flag must always be done before we test need_resched() and hit the idle instruction(s). [Symmetrically, the wakeup code needs to set NEED_RESCHED before it tests the TS_POLLING flag, so memory ordering is paramount.] Fernando's dual-core Athlon64 system has a sufficiently advanced memory ordering model so that it triggered this scenario very often. ( And it also turned out that the reason why these latencies never triggered on my testsystems is that i routinely use idle=poll, which was the only idle variant not affected by this bug. ) The fix is to change the smp_mb__after_clear_bit() to an smp_mb(), to act as an absolute barrier between the TS_POLLING write and the NEED_RESCHED read. This affects almost all idling methods (default, ACPI, APM), on all 3 x86 architectures: i386, x86_64, ia64.

* [IA64] kprobe clears qp bits for special instructionsbibo,mao2006-12-121-53/+122
| | | | | | | | | | | | On IA64 there exists some special instructions which always need to be executed regradless of qp bits, such as com.crel.unc, tbit.trel.unc etc. This patch clears qp bits when inserting kprobe trap code and disables probepoint on slot 1 for these special instructions.

* [IA64] enable trap code on slot 1Tony Luck2006-12-122-15/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because slot 1 of one instr bundle crosses border of two consecutive 8-bytes, kprobe on slot 1 is disabled. This patch enables kprobe on slot1, it only replaces higher 8-bytes of the instruction bundle and changes the exception code to ignore the low 12 bits of the break number (which is across the border in the lower 8-bytes of the bundle). For those instructions which must execute regardless qp bits, kprobe on slot 1 is still disabled. Signed-off-by: bibo,mao <bibo.mao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

* [IA64] fix possible XPC deadlock when disconnectingDean Nelson2006-12-122-26/+53
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch eliminates a potential deadlock that is possible when XPC disconnects a channel to a partition that has gone down. This deadlock will occur if at least one of the kthreads created by XPC for the purpose of making callouts to the channel's registerer is detained in the registerer and will not be returning back to XPC until some registerer request occurs on the now downed partition. The potential for a deadlock is removed by ensuring that there always is a kthread available to make the channel disconnecting callout to the registerer.

* [IA64] - Reduce overhead of FP exception logging messagesJack Steiner2006-12-121-10/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Improve the scalability of the fpswa code that rate-limits logging of messages. There are 2 distinctly different problems in this code. 1) If prctl is used to disable logging, last_time is never updated. The result is that fpu_swa_count is zeroed out on EVERY fp fault. This causes a very very hot cache line. The fix reduces the wallclock time of a 1024p FP exception test from 28734 sec to 19 sec!!! 2) On VERY large systems, excessive messages are logged because multiple cpus can each reset or increment fpu_swa_count at about the same time. The result is that hundreds of messages are logged each second. The fixes reduces the logging rate to ~1 per second.
