| | | | * | | x86, mm: fault.c, give another attempt at prefetch handing before SIGBUSIngo Molnar2009-02-211-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: extend prefetch handling on 64-bit Currently there's an extra is_prefetch() check done in do_sigbus(), which we only do on 32 bits. This is a last-ditch check before we terminate a task, so it's worth giving prefetch instructions another chance - should none of our existing quirks have caught a prefetch instruction related spurious fault. The only risk is if a prefetch causes a real sigbus, in that case we'll not OOM but try another fault. But this code has been on 32-bit for a long time, so it should be fine in practice. So do this on 64-bit too - and thus remove one more #ifdef. Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

It is slightly more careful in that it does a recursion check in oops_begin(), and is thus more likely to show the relevant oops. It also means that 32-bit will print one more line at the end of pagefault triggered oopses: printk(KERN_EMERG "CR2: %016lx\n", address); Which is generally good information to be seen in partial-dump digital-camera jpegs ;-) The downside is the somewhat more complex critical path. Both variants have been tested well meanwhile by kernel developers crashing their boxes so i dont think this is a practical worry. This removes 3 ugly #ifdefs from no_context() and makes the function a lot nicer read. Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

The compiler optimizes it all away in the !CONFIG_MMIOTRACE case.

| | | | * | | x86, mm: fault.c, enable PF_RSVD checks on 32-bit tooIngo Molnar2009-02-211-4/+0

This flag gets set when the CPU detects nonzero values in any reserved bits of the page directory entries. Extend the existing 64-bit check for PF_RSVD in do_page_fault() to 32-bit too. If we detect such a fault then we print a more informative oops and the pagetables. This unifies the code some more, removes an ugly #ifdef and improves the 32-bit page fault code robustness a bit. It slightly increases the 32-bit kernel text size. Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

This will result in an infinite loop of: fault -> spurious_fault check (pass) -> return to code -> fault This patch adds a check and a warn on if the PTE passes the permissions but the PMD does not.

Currently it is not a problem because we never set _PAGE_BIT_PAT_LARGE on any of the large-page mappings - but should this happen in the future the split_large_page() would silently lift bit 12 into the lowlevel 4K pte and would start corrupting the physical page frame offset. Not fun. So add a debug warning, to make sure if something ever sets the PAT bit then this function gets updated too.

However, at least one instruction remained that only operated on the low 16 bits of %esp. This is not a bug per se because the kernel stack is always an aligned 4K or 8K block. Therefore it cannot cross 64K boundaries; this code, in fact, relies strictly on that fact. However, it's a lot cleaner (and, for that matter, smaller) to operate on the entire 32-bit register.

Since the ISA address space is only 24 bits (32 for VLB or LPC) it will always fit in an unsigned int, and at least in the aha1542 driver using a wider type would cause an undesirable promotion. Hence explicitly cast the ISA bus addresses to unsigned int. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@linux.intel.com> Cc: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@hansenpartnership.com>

Unixbench's fstime test gives the following results for 256 byte writes with MAX_BLOCK of 2000: 2.6.29-rc6 ( 5 samples, each in KB/sec ): 283750, 295200, 294500, 293000, 293300 2.6.29-rc6 + this patch (5 samples, each in KB/sec): 313050, 3106750, 293350, 306300, 307900 2.6.18 395700, 342000, 399100, 366050, 359850 See w_test() in src/fstime.c in unixbench version 4.1.0. Basically, the above test consists of counting how much we can write in this manner: alarm(10); while (!sigalarm) { for (f_blocks = 0; f_blocks < 2000; ++f_blocks) { write(f, buf, 256); } lseek(f, 0L, 0); } Note, there are other components to the write syscall regression that are not addressed here.
