2006-04-17[PATCH] m32r: Fix cpu_possible_map and cpu_present_map initialization for ↵Hirokazu Takata
SMP kernel This patch fixes a boot problem of the m32r SMP kernel 2.6.16-rc1-mm3 or later. In this patch, cpu_possible_map is statically initialized, and cpu_present_map is also copied from cpu_possible_map in smp_prepare_cpus(), because the m32r architecture has not supported CPU hotplug yet.

2006-04-17[PATCH] m32r: security fix of {get, put}_user macrosHirokazu Takata
Update {get,put}_user macros for m32r kernel. - Modify get_user to use __get_user_asm macro, instead of __get_user_x macro. - Remove arch/m32r/lib/{get,put}user.S. - Some cosmetic updates. I would like to thank NIIBE Yutaka for his reporting about the m32r kernel's security problem in {get,put}_user macros. There were no address checking for user space access in {get,put}_user macros. ;-) Signed-off-by: Hirokazu Takata <takata@linux-m32r.org> Cc: NIIBE Yutaka <gniibe@fsij.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-02-24[PATCH] m32r: fix and update for gcc-4.0Hirokazu Takata
Fix and update for gcc-4.0. - arch/m32r/kernel/signal.c: Change type of the 8th parameter of sys_rt_sigsuspend() from 'struct pt_regs' to 'struct pt_regs *'. This functions make use of the 'regs' parameter to return status value, but gcc-4.0 optimizes and removes it as a dead code. Functions, sys_sigaltstack() and sys_rt_sigreturn(), have also modified. - arch/m32r/lib/usercopy.c, include/asm-m32r/uaccess.h: Add early-clobber constraints('&') to output values of asm statements; these constraints seems to be required for gcc-4.0 register assignment.

Add -O2 option to AFLAGS to enable asm code optimization for m32r. On m32r gas, "-m32r2 -O" option enables assembler's parallel code generation optimization for M32R2 ISA as a default. So, "-no-parallel" option is required explicitly for a cpu core with single instuction issuing, for example, VDEC2.

2006-02-20[PATCH] m32r: update sys_tas() routineHirokazu Takata
This patch updates and fixes sys_tas() routine for m32r. In the previous implementation, a lockup rarely caused at sys_tas() routine in SMP environment. > > The problem is that touching *addr will generate an oops if that page isn't > > paged in. If we convert it to use get_user() then that's an improvement, > > but we must not run get_user() under spinlock or local_irq_disable(). I rewrote sys_tas() routine by using "lock -> unlock" instructions, and utilizing the m32r's interrupt handling characteristics; the m32r processor can accept interrupts only at the 32-bit instruction boundary. So, the "unlock" instruction can be executed continuously after the "lock" instruction execution without any interruptions. In addition, to solve such a page_fault problem, I use a fixup code like get_user(). And, as for the kernel lockup problem, we found that a calling do_page_fault() routine with disabling interrupts might cause a lockup at flush_tlb_others(), because we checked a completion of IPI handler's operations in a spin-locked critical section. Therefore, by using "lock -> unlock" code, we can implement the sys_tas() rouitine without disabling interrupts explicitly, then no lockups would happen at flush_tlb_others(), I hope. Compile check and some working test in SMP environment have done.

This patch fixes the following bugs: - ARCH_S390X does no longer exist, nowadays this has to be expressed through (S390 && 64BIT) - in five architecture specific Kconfig files the UID16 options weren't removed Additionally, it changes the fragile negative dependencies of UID16 to positive dependencies (new architectures are more likely to not require UID16 support).

2006-01-08[PATCH] Don't attempt to power off if power off is not implementedEric W. Biederman
The problem. It is expected that /sbin/halt -p works exactly like /sbin/halt, when the kernel does not implement power off functionality. The kernel can do a lot of work in the reboot notifiers and in device_shutdown before we even get to machine_power_off. Some of that shutdown is not safe if you are leaving the power on, and it definitely gets in the way of using sysrq or pressing ctrl-alt-del. Since the shutdown happens in generic code there is no way to fix this in architecture specific code :( Some machines are kernel oopsing today because of this. The simple solution is to turn LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_POWER_OFF into LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_HALT if power_off functionality is not implemented. This has the unfortunate side effect of disabling the power off functionality on architectures that leave pm_power_off to null and still implement something in machine_power_off. And it will break the build on some architectures that don't have a pm_power_off variable at all. On both counts I say tough. For architectures like alpha that don't implement the pm_power_off variable pm_power_off is declared in linux/pm.h and it is a generic part of our power management code, and all architectures should implement it. For architectures like parisc that have a default power off method in machine_power_off if pm_power_off is not implemented or fails. It is easy enough to set the pm_power_off variable. And nothing bad happens there, the machines just stop powering off. The current semantics are impossible without a flag at the top level so we can avoid the problem code if a power off is not implemented. pm_power_off is as good a flag as any with the bonus that it works without modification on at least x86, x86_64, powerpc, and ppc today. Andrew can you pick this up and put this in the mm tree. Kernels that don't compile or don't power off seem saner than kernels that oops or panic. Until we get the arch specific patches for the problem architectures this probably isn't smart to push into the stable kernel. Unfortunately I don't have the time at the moment to walk through every architecture and make them work. And even if I did I couldn't test it :( From: Hirokazu Takata <takata@linux-m32r.org> Add pm_power_off() for build fix of arch/m32r/kernel/process.c.

The ptrace_get_task_struct() helper that I added as part of the ptrace consolidation is useful in variety of places that currently opencode it. Switch them to the common helpers. Add a ptrace_traceme() helper that needs to be explicitly called, and simplify the ptrace_get_task_struct() interface. We don't need the request argument now, and we return the task_struct directly, using ERR_PTR() for error returns.

2005-11-28[PATCH] m32r: Fix sys_tas() syscallHirokazu Takata
This patch fixes a deadlock problem of the m32r SMP kernel. In the m32r kernel, sys_tas() system call is provided as a test-and-set function for userspace, for backward compatibility. In some multi-threading application program, deadlocks were rarely caused at sys_tas() funcion. Such a deadlock was caused due to a collision of __pthread_lock() and __pthread_unlock() operations. The "tas" syscall is repeatedly called by pthread_mutex_lock() to get a lock, while a lock variable's value is not 0. On the other hand, pthead_mutex_unlock() sets the lock variable to 0 for unlocking. In the previous implementation of sys_tas() routine, there was a possibility that a unlock operation was ignored in the following case: - Assume a lock variable (*addr) was equal to 1 before sys_tas() execution. - __pthread_unlock() operation is executed by the other processor and the lock variable (*addr) is set to 0, between a read operation ("oldval = *addr;") and the following write operation ("*addr = 1;") during a execution of sys_tas(). In this case, the following write operation ("*addr = 1;") overwrites the __pthread_unlock() result, and sys_tas() fails to get a lock in the next turn and after that. According to the attatched patch, sys_tas() returns 0 value in the next turn and deadlocks never happen.

2005-11-09[PATCH] sched: disable preempt in idle tasksNick Piggin
Run idle threads with preempt disabled. Also corrected a bugs in arm26's cpu_idle (make it actually call schedule()). How did it ever work before? Might fix the CPU hotplugging hang which Nigel Cunningham noted. We think the bug hits if the idle thread is preempted after checking need_resched() and before going to sleep, then the CPU offlined. After calling stop_machine_run, the CPU eventually returns from preemption and into the idle thread and goes to sleep. The CPU will continue executing previous idle and have no chance to call play_dead. By disabling preemption until we are ready to explicitly schedule, this bug is fixed and the idle threads generally become more robust.

Manual #include fixups for clashes - there may be some unnecessary
2005-10-30[PATCH] fix missing includesTim Schmielau
I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after this disentangling (patch to follow later). However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this. In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts will pick it up again in the next round.

2005-10-29[PATCH] memory hotplug locking: node_size_lockDave Hansen
pgdat->node_size_lock is basically only neeeded in one place in the normal code: show_mem(), which is the arch-specific sysrq-m printing function. Strictly speaking, the architectures not doing memory hotplug do no need this locking in show_mem(). However, they are all included for completeness. This should also make any future consolidation of all of the implementations a little more straightforward. This lock is also held in the sparsemem code during a memory removal, as sections are invalidated. This is the place there pfn_valid() is made false for a memory area that's being removed. The lock is only required when doing pfn_valid() operations on memory which the user does not already have a reference on the page, such as in show_mem().

2005-10-29[PATCH] mm: init_mm without ptlockHugh Dickins
First step in pushing down the page_table_lock. init_mm.page_table_lock has been used throughout the architectures (usually for ioremap): not to serialize kernel address space allocation (that's usually vmlist_lock), but because pud_alloc,pmd_alloc,pte_alloc_kernel expect caller holds it. Reverse that: don't lock or unlock init_mm.page_table_lock in any of the architectures; instead rely on pud_alloc,pmd_alloc,pte_alloc_kernel to take and drop it when allocating a new one, to check lest a racing task already did. Similarly no page_table_lock in vmalloc's map_vm_area. Some temporary ugliness in __pud_alloc and __pmd_alloc: since they also handle user mms, which are converted only by a later patch, for now they have to lock differently according to whether or not it's init_mm. If sources get muddled, there's a danger that an arch source taking init_mm.page_table_lock will be mixed with common source also taking it (or neither take it). So break the rules and make another change, which should break the build for such a mismatch: remove the redundant mm arg from pte_alloc_kernel (ppc64 scrapped its distinct ioremap_mm in 2.6.13). Exceptions: arm26 used pte_alloc_kernel on user mm, now pte_alloc_map; ia64 used pte_alloc_map on init_mm, now pte_alloc_kernel; parisc had bad args to pmd_alloc and pte_alloc_kernel in unused USE_HPPA_IOREMAP code; ppc64 map_io_page forgot to unlock on failure; ppc mmu_mapin_ram and ppc64 im_free took page_table_lock for no good reason.

2005-09-10[PATCH] spinlock consolidationIngo Molnar
This patch (written by me and also containing many suggestions of Arjan van de Ven) does a major cleanup of the spinlock code. It does the following things: - consolidates and enhances the spinlock/rwlock debugging code - simplifies the asm/spinlock.h files - encapsulates the raw spinlock type and moves generic spinlock features (such as ->break_lock) into the generic code. - cleans up the spinlock code hierarchy to get rid of the spaghetti. Most notably there's now only a single variant of the debugging code, located in lib/spinlock_debug.c. (previously we had one SMP debugging variant per architecture, plus a separate generic one for UP builds) Also, i've enhanced the rwlock debugging facility, it will now track write-owners. There is new spinlock-owner/CPU-tracking on SMP builds too. All locks have lockup detection now, which will work for both soft and hard spin/rwlock lockups. The arch-level include files now only contain the minimally necessary subset of the spinlock code - all the rest that can be generalized now lives in the generic headers: include/asm-i386/spinlock_types.h | 16 include/asm-x86_64/spinlock_types.h | 16 I have also split up the various spinlock variants into separate files, making it easier to see which does what. The new layout is: SMP | UP ----------------------------|----------------------------------- asm/spinlock_types_smp.h | linux/spinlock_types_up.h linux/spinlock_types.h | linux/spinlock_types.h asm/spinlock_smp.h | linux/spinlock_up.h linux/spinlock_api_smp.h | linux/spinlock_api_up.h linux/spinlock.h | linux/spinlock.h /* * here's the role of the various spinlock/rwlock related include files: * * on SMP builds: * * asm/spinlock_types.h: contains the raw_spinlock_t/raw_rwlock_t and the * initializers * * linux/spinlock_types.h: * defines the generic type and initializers * * asm/spinlock.h: contains the __raw_spin_*()/etc. lowlevel * implementations, mostly inline assembly code * * (also included on UP-debug builds:) * * linux/spinlock_api_smp.h: * contains the prototypes for the _spin_*() APIs. * * linux/spinlock.h: builds the final spin_*() APIs. * * on UP builds: * * linux/spinlock_type_up.h: * contains the generic, simplified UP spinlock type. * (which is an empty structure on non-debug builds) * * linux/spinlock_types.h: * defines the generic type and initializers * * linux/spinlock_up.h: * contains the __raw_spin_*()/etc. version of UP * builds.

From: Grant Grundler <grundler@parisc-linux.org> Booted and lightly tested on a500-44 (64-bit, SMP kernel, dual CPU). Builds 32-bit SMP kernel (not booted or tested). I did not try to build non-SMP kernels. That should be trivial to fix up later if necessary. I converted bit ops atomic_hash lock to raw_spinlock_t. Doing so avoids some ugly nesting of linux/*.h and asm/*.h files. Those particular locks are well tested and contained entirely inside arch specific code. I do NOT expect any new issues to arise with them. If someone does ever need to use debug/metrics with them, then they will need to unravel this hairball between spinlocks, atomic ops, and bit ops that exist only because parisc has exactly one atomic instruction: LDCW (load and clear word).

2005-08-29[PATCH] convert signal handling of NODEFER to act like other Unix boxes.Steven Rostedt
It has been reported that the way Linux handles NODEFER for signals is not consistent with the way other Unix boxes handle it. I've written a program to test the behavior of how this flag affects signals and had several reports from people who ran this on various Unix boxes, confirming that Linux seems to be unique on the way this is handled. The way NODEFER affects signals on other Unix boxes is as follows: 1) If NODEFER is set, other signals in sa_mask are still blocked. 2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal is still blocked. (Note: this is the behavior of all tested but Linux _and_ NetBSD 2.0 *). The way NODEFER affects signals on Linux: 1) If NODEFER is set, other signals are _not_ blocked regardless of sa_mask (Even NetBSD doesn't do this). 2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal being handled is not blocked. The patch converts signal handling in all current Linux architectures to the way most Unix boxes work. Unix boxes that were tested: DU4, AIX 5.2, Irix 6.5, NetBSD 2.0, SFU 3.5 on WinXP, AIX 5.3, Mac OSX, and of course Linux 2.6.13-rcX. * NetBSD was the only other Unix to behave like Linux on point #2. The main concern was brought up by point #1 which even NetBSD isn't like Linux. So with this patch, we leave NetBSD as the lonely one that behaves differently here with #2.

2005-08-01[PATCH] m32r: Fix local-timer event handlingHirokazu Takata
There was a scheduling problem of the m32r SMP kernel; A process rarely stopped and gave no responding but the other process have been handled by the other CPU still lives, then if we did something in the other terminal or something like that, the stopped process came back to life and continued its operation... (ex. LMbench: lat_sig) In the m32r SMP kernel, a local-timer event is delivered by using an IPI(inter processor interrupts); LOCAL_TIMER_IPI. And a function smp_send_timer() is prepared to send the LOCAL_TIMER_IPI from the current CPU to the other CPUs. The funtion smp_send_timer() was placed and used in do_IRQ() in former times (before 2.6.10-rc3-mm1 kernel), however, it was unintentionally removed when arch/m32r/kernel/irq.c was modified to employ the generic hardirq framework (CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQ) in my previous patch.

Usually code should be calling kernel_restart, kernel_halt, kernel_power_off, or emergency_restart. So don't export machine_restart, machine_halt, and machine_power_off so we can catch buggy users.

2005-07-11[NET]: add a top-level Networking menu to *configSam Ravnborg
Create a new top-level menu named "Networking" thus moving net related options and protocol selection way from the drivers menu and up on the top-level where they belong. To implement this all architectures has to source "net/Kconfig" before drivers/*/Kconfig in their Kconfig file. This change has been implemented for all architectures. Device drivers for ordinary NIC's are still to be found in the Device Drivers section, but Bluetooth, IrDA and ax25 are located with their corresponding menu entries under the new networking menu item.
