2006-06-26Revert "[PATCH] kthread: update loop.c to use kthread"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit c7b2eff059fcc2d1b7085ee3d84b79fd657a537b. Hugh Dickins explains: "It seems too little tested: "losetup -d /dev/loop0" fails with EINVAL because nothing sets lo_thread; but even when you patch loop_thread() to set lo->lo_thread = current, it can't survive more than a few dozen iterations of the loop below (with a tmpfs mounted on /tst): j=0 cp /dev/zero /tst while : do let j=j+1 echo "Doing pass $j" losetup /dev/loop0 /tst/zero mkfs -t ext2 -b 1024 /dev/loop0 >/dev/null 2>&1 mount -t ext2 /dev/loop0 /mnt umount /mnt losetup -d /dev/loop0 done it collapses with failed ioctl then BUG_ON(!bio). I think the original lo_done completion was more subtle and safe than the kthread conversion has allowed for." Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Take two, now without spurious whitespace :( Applies to git & 2.6.17-rc6 CONFIG_DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW existed for x86_64 in 2.4, but seems to have gone AWOL in 2.6. I've pretty much just copied this over from the 2.4 code, with appropriate tweaks for the 2.6 kernel, plus a bugfix. I'd personally rather see it printed out the way other arches do it, i.e. bytes-remaining-until-overflow, rather than having to do the subtraction yourself. Also, only 128 bytes remaining seems awfully late to issue a warning. But I'll start here :) Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-06-26[PATCH] x86_64: i386/x86-64 Add nmi watchdog support for new Intel CPUsVenkatesh Pallipadi
Intel now has support for Architectural Performance Monitoring Counters ( Refer to IA-32 Intel Architecture Software Developer's Manual http://www.intel.com/design/pentium4/manuals/253669.htm ). This feature is present starting from Intel Core Duo and Intel Core Solo processors. What this means is, the performance monitoring counters and some performance monitoring events are now defined in an architectural way (using cpuid). And there will be no need to check for family/model etc for these architectural events. Below is the patch to use this performance counters in nmi watchdog driver.

2006-06-26[PATCH] x86_64: Avoid broadcasting NMI IPIsKeith Owens
On some i386/x86_64 systems, sending an NMI IPI as a broadcast will reset the system. This seems to be a BIOS bug which affects machines where one or more cpus are not under OS control. It occurs on HT systems with a version of the OS that is not compiled without HT support. It also occurs when a system is booted with max_cpus=n where 2 <= n < cpus known to the BIOS. The fix is to always send NMI IPI as a mask instead of as a broadcast.

2006-06-26[PATCH] x86_64: Standardize i386/x86_64 handling of NMI_VECTORKeith Owens
x86_64 and i386 behave inconsistently when sending an IPI on vector 2 (NMI_VECTOR). Make both behave the same, so IPI 2 is sent as NMI. The crash code was abusing send_IPI_allbutself() by passing a code instead of a vector, it only worked because crash knew about the internal code of send_IPI_allbutself(). Change crash to use NMI_VECTOR instead, and remove the comment about how crash was abusing the function. This patch is a pre-requisite for fixing the problem where sending an IPI as NMI would reboot some Dell Xeon systems. I cannot fix that problem while crash continus to abuse send_IPI_allbutself(). It also removes the inconsistency between i386 and x86_64 for NMI_VECTOR. That will simplify all the RAS code that needs to bring all the cpus to a clean stop, even when one or more cpus are spinning disabled.

2006-06-26[PATCH] x86_64: Do not use -ffunction-sections for modulesSergey Vlasov
Currently CONFIG_REORDER uses -ffunction-sections for all code; however, creating a separate section for each function is not useful for modules and just adds bloat. Moving this option from CFLAGS to CFLAGS_KERNEL shrinks module object files (e.g., the module tree for a kernel built with most drivers as modules shrinked from 54M to 46M), and decreases the number of sysfs files in /sys/module/*/sections/ directories.

2006-06-26[PATCH] i386/x86-64/ia64: Move polling flag into thread_info_statusAndi Kleen
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. Converted i386/x86-64/ia64 for now because that was the easiest way to fix ACPI which also manipulates these flags in its idle function.
