* [PATCH] Change synchronize_kernel to _rcu and _schedPaul E. McKenney2005-05-012-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | This patch changes calls to synchronize_kernel(), deprecated in the earlier "Deprecate synchronize_kernel, GPL replacement" patch to instead call the new synchronize_rcu() and synchronize_sched() APIs.

* [PATCH] s390: fix memory holes and cleanup setup_archHeiko Carstens2005-05-012-176/+224
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The memory setup didn't take care of memory holes and this makes the memory management think there would be more memory available than there is in reality. That causes the OOM killer to kill processes even if there is enough memory left that can be written to the swap space. The patch fixes this by using free_area_init_node with an array of memory holes instead of free_area_init. Further the patch cleans up the code in setup.c by splitting setup_arch into smaller pieces.

* [PATCH] uml ubd: handle readonly statusPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2005-05-011-4/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use the set_disk_ro() API when the backing file is read-only, to mark the disk read-only, during the ->open(). The current hack does not work when doing a mount -o remount. Also, mark explicitly the code paths which should no more be triggerable (I've removed the WARN_ON(1) things). They should actually become BUG()s probably but I'll avoid that since I'm not so sure the change works so well. I gave it only some limited testing.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Split the i386 entry.S files into entry.S and syscall_table.S which is included in the previous one (so actually there is no difference between them) and use the syscall_table.S in the UML build, instead of tracking by hand the syscall table changes (which is inherently error-prone). We must only insert the right #defines to inject the changes we need from the i386 syscall table (for instance some different function names); also, we don't implement some i386 syscalls, as ioperm(), nor some TLS-related ones (yet to provide).

* [PATCH] Linux 2.6.x VM86 interrupt emulation fixesPavel Pisa2005-05-011-6/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch solves VM86 interrupt emulation deadlock on SMP systems. The VM86 interrupt emulation has been heavily tested and works well on UP systems after last update, but it seems to deadlock when we have used it on SMP/HT boxes now. It seems, that disable_irq() cannot be called from interrupts, because it waits until disabled interrupt handler finishes (/kernel/irq/manage.c:synchronize_irq():while(IRQ_INPROGRESS);). This blocks one CPU after another. Solved by use disable_irq_nosync. There is the second problem. If IRQ source is fast, it is possible, that interrupt is sometimes processed and re-enabled by the second CPU, before it is disabled by the first one, but negative IRQ disable depths are not allowed. The spinlocking and disabling IRQs over call to disable_irq_nosync/enable_irq is the only solution found reliable till now.

* [PATCH] Increase number of e820 entries hard limit from 32 to 128Venkatesh Pallipadi2005-05-014-10/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The specifications that talk about E820 map doesn't have an upper limit on the number of e820 entries. But, today's kernel has a hard limit of 32. With increase in memory size, we are seeing the number of E820 entries reaching close to 32. Patch below bumps the number upto 128. The patch changes the location of EDDBUF in zero-page (as it comes after E820). As, EDDBUF is not used by boot loaders, this patch should not have any effect on bootloader-setup code interface. Patch covers both i386 and x86-64. Tested on: * grub booting bzImage * lilo booting bzImage with EDID info enabled * pxeboot of bzImage Side-effect: bss increases by ~ 2K and init.data increases by ~7.5K on all systems, due to increase in size of static arrays.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the i386 HPET code assumes the entire HPET implementation from the spec is present. This breaks on boxes that do not implement the optional legacy timer replacement functionality portion of the spec.

* [PATCH] check nmi watchdog is brokenJack F Vogel2005-05-016-15/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A bug against an xSeries system showed up recently noting that the check_nmi_watchdog() test was failing. I have been investigating it and discovered in both i386 and x86_64 the recent change to the routine to use the cpu_callin_map has uncovered a problem. Prior to that change, on an SMP box, the test was trivally passing because all cpu's were found to not yet be online, but now with the callin_map they are discovered, it goes on to test the counter and they have not yet begun to increment, so it announces a CPU is stuck and bails out. On all the systems I have access to test, the announcement of failure is also bougs... by the time you can login and check /proc/interrupts, the NMI count is happily incrementing on all CPUs. Its just that the test is being done too early. I have tried moving the call to the test around a bit, and it was always too early. I finally hit on this proposed solution, it delays the routine via a late_initcall(), seems like the right solution to me.

* [PATCH] PPC64: Remove hot busy-wait loop in __hash_pageOlof Johansson2005-05-011-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It turns out that our current __hash_page code will do a very hot busy-wait loop waiting on _PAGE_BUSY to be cleared. It even does ldarx/stdcx in the loop, which will bounce reservations around like crazy if there's more than one CPU spinning on the same PTE (or even another PTE in the same reservation granule). The end result is that each fault takes longer when there's contention, which in turn increases the chance of another thread hitting the same fault and also piling up. Not pretty. There's two options here: 1. Do an out-of-line busy loop a'la spinlocks with just loads (no reserves) 2. Just bail and refault if needed. (2) makes sense here: If the PTE is busy, chances are it's in flux anyway and the other code path making a change might just be ready to hash it. This fixes a stampede seen on a large-ish system where a multithreaded HPC app faults in the same text pages on several cpus at the same time.

* [PATCH] ppc64: Fix irq parsing on powermacPaul Mackerras2005-05-011-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When I tried Ben's patches to the powermac sound driver on my G5, I found that it was taking enormous numbers of sound DMA transmit interrupts. This turned out to be because it was incorrectly configured as level-sensitive instead of edge-sensitive, which in turn was because the code that parses the interrupt tree that Open Firmware gives us was incorrectly assigning another device the same irq number as the sound DMA transmit interrupt (i.e. 1). This patch fixes the problem, in a somewhat quick and dirty way for now, but one which will work for all the machines we currently run on. Ultimately Ben and I want to do something more general and robust, but this should go in for 2.6.12.

* [PATCH] ppc64: add PT_NOTE section to vDSOBenjamin Herrenschmidt2005-05-016-3/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch from Roland adds a PT_NOTE section to both 32 and 64 bits vDSOs to expose the kernel version to glibc, thus avoiding a uname syscall on every launch. This is equivalent to the patches Roland posted already for x86 and x86-64. Note: the 64 bits .note is actually using the 32 bits format. This is normal. The ELF spec specifies a different format for 64 bits .note, but for some reason, this was never properly implemented, the core dumps for example are all using 32 bits format .note, and binutils cannot even read a 64 bits format .note. Talking to our toolchain folks, they think we'd rather stick to 32 bits format .note everywhere and get the spec fixed some day ...

* [PATCH] ppc32: workaround for spurious IRQs on PQ2Dan Malek2005-05-011-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a problem with large amounts of spurious IRQs on PowerPC 82xx systems. The problem is corrected by adding sync at the end of cpm2_mask_and_ack. This may be needed on 8xx as well but has not yet been confirmed.

| | | | | | | | | | | Some earlier models of aluminium powerbooks and ibook G4s have a clock chip that requires some tweaking before and after sleep. It seems that without that magic incantation to disable and re-enable clock spreading, RAM isn't properly refreshed during sleep. This fixes it.
