We had a case where we could turn on hard interrupts while leaving the PACA_IRQ_HARD_DIS bit set in the PACA. This can in turn cause a BUG_ON() to hit in __check_irq_replay() due to interrupt state getting out of sync. The assembly code was also way too convoluted. Instead, we now leave it to the C code to do the right thing which ends up being smaller and more readable. Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

With the embed percpu first chunk allocator, x86 uses either PAGE_SIZE or PMD_SIZE for atom_size. PMD_SIZE is used when CPU supports PSE so that percpu areas are aligned to PMD mappings and possibly allow using PMD mappings in vmalloc areas in the future. Using larger atom_size doesn't waste actual memory; however, it does require larger vmalloc space allocation later on for !first chunks. With reasonably sized vmalloc area, PMD_SIZE shouldn't be a problem but x86_32 at this point is anything but reasonable in terms of address space and using larger atom_size reportedly leads to frequent percpu allocation failures on certain setups. As there is no reason to not use PMD_SIZE on x86_64 as vmalloc space is aplenty and most x86_64 configurations support PSE, fix the issue by always using PMD_SIZE on x86_64 and PAGE_SIZE on x86_32. v2: drop cpu_has_pse test and make x86_64 always use PMD_SIZE and x86_32 PAGE_SIZE as suggested by hpa.

The H_REGISTER_VPA hcall implementation in HV Power KVM needs to pin some guest memory pages into host memory so that they can be safely accessed from usermode. It does this used get_user_pages_fast(). When the VPA is unregistered, or the VCPUs are cleaned up, these pages are released using put_page(). However, the get_user_pages() is invoked on the specific memory are of the VPA which could lie within hugepages. In case the pinned page is huge, we explicitly find the head page of the compound page before calling put_page() on it. At least with the latest kernel, this is not correct. put_page() already handles finding the correct head page of a compound, and also deals with various counts on the individual tail page which are important for transparent huge pages. We don't support transparent hugepages on Power, but even so, bypassing this count maintenance can lead (when the VM ends) to a hugepage being released back to the pool with a non-zero mapcount on one of the tail pages. This can then lead to a bad_page() when the page is released from the hugepage pool. This removes the explicit compound_head() call to correct this bug.

The reason (at least in this case) was that PGD[256] is set to __HYPERVISOR_VIRT_START which was setup (by the hypervisor) to point to a read-only linear map of the MFN->PFN array. During our parsing we would get the MFN (a valid one), try to look it up in the MFN->PFN tree and find it invalid and return ~0 as PFN. Then pte_mfn_to_pfn would happilly feed that in, attach the flags and return it back to the caller. 'ptdump_show' bitshifts it and gets and invalid value that it tries to dereference. Instead of doing all of that, we detect the ~0 case and just return !_PAGE_PRESENT. This bug has been in existence .. at least until 2.6.37 (yikes!)

Commit 4e8ee7de (ARM: SMP: use idmap_pgd for mapping MMU enable during secondary booting) switched secondary boot to use idmap_pgd, which is initialized during early_initcall, instead of a page table initialized during __cpu_up. This causes idmap_pgd to contain the static mappings but be missing all dynamic mappings. If a console is registered that creates a dynamic mapping, the printk in secondary_start_kernel will trigger a data abort on the missing mapping before the exception handlers have been initialized, leading to a hang. Initial boot is not affected because no consoles have been registered, and resume is usually not affected because the offending console is suspended. Onlining a cpu with hotplug triggers the problem. A workaround is to the printk in secondary_start_kernel until after the page tables have been switched back to init_mm.

The test in pdc_console_tty_close '!tty->count' was always wrong because tty->count is decremented after tty->ops->close is called and thus can never be zero. Hence the 'then' branch was never executed and the timer never deleted. This did not matter until commit 5dd5bc40 ("TTY: pdc_cons, use tty_port"). There we needed to set TTY in tty_port to NULL, but this never happened due to the bug above. So change the test to really trigger at the last close by changing the condition to 'tty->count == 1'. Well, the driver should not touch tty->count at all. It should use tty_port->count and count open count there itself.

The inline assembly in kernel_execve() uses r8 and r9. Since this code sequence does not return, it usually doesn't matter if the register clobber list is accurate. However, I saw a case where a particular version of gcc used r8 as an intermediate for the value eventually passed to r9. Because r8 is used in the inline assembly, and not mentioned in the clobber list, r9 was set to an incorrect value. This resulted in a kernel panic on execution of the first user-space program in the system. r9 is used in ret_to_user as the thread_info pointer, and if it's wrong, bad things happen.

This reverts commit 46f8c3c7. The commit above swapped the DSI1_PPID and DSI2_PPID register fields in CONTROL_DSIPHY to be in sync with the newer public OMAP TRMs(after version V). With this commit, contention errors were reported on DSI lanes some OMAP4 SDPs. After probing the DSI lanes on OMAP4 SDP, it was seen that setting bits in the DSI2_PPID field was pulling up voltage on DSI1 lanes, and DSI1_PPID field was pulling up voltage on DSI2 lanes. This proves that the current version of OMAP4 TRM is incorrect, swap the position of register fields according to the older TRM versions as they were correct.

It turns out that there are more cases than CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC that can have holes in the kernel address space: it seems to happen easily with Xen, and it looks like the AMD gart64 code will also punch holes dynamically. Actually hitting that case is still very unlikely, so just do the access, and take an exception and fix it up for the very unlikely case of it being a page-crosser with no next page. And hey, this abstraction might even help other architectures that have other issues with unaligned word accesses than the possible missing next page. IOW, this could do the byte order magic too.

The switch from using irq_map to irq_alloc_desc*() for managing irq number allocations introduced new bugs in some of the powerpc interrupt code. Several functions rely on the value of NR_IRQS to determine the maximum irq number that could get allocated. However, with sparse_irq and using irq_alloc_desc*() the maximum possible irq number is now specified with 'nr_irqs' which may be a number larger than NR_IRQS. This has caused breakage on powermac when CONFIG_NR_IRQS is set to 32. This patch removes most of the direct references to NR_IRQS in the powerpc code and replaces them with either a nr_irqs reference or by using the common for_each_irq_desc() macro. The powerpc-specific for_each_irq() macro is removed at the same time. Also, the Cell axon_msi driver is refactored to remove the global build assumption on the size of NR_IRQS and instead add a limit to the maximum irq number when calling irq_domain_add_nomap().

The mpc8xx driver uses a reference to NR_IRQS that is buggy. It uses NR_IRQs for the array size of the ppc_cached_irq_mask bitmap, but NR_IRQs could be smaller than the number of hardware irqs that ppc_cached_irq_mask tracks. Also, while fixing that problem, it became apparent that the interrupt controller only supports 32 interrupt numbers, but it is written as if it supports multiple register banks which is more complicated. This patch pulls out the buggy reference to NR_IRQs and fixes the size of the ppc_cached_irq_mask to match the number of HW irqs. It also drops the now-unnecessary code since ppc_cached_irq_mask is no longer an array.

When a CPU is hotplugged off, we migrate any IRQs currently affine to it away and onto another online CPU by calling the irq_set_affinity function of the relevant interrupt controller chip. This function returns either IRQ_SET_MASK_OK or IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY, to indicate whether irq_data.affinity was updated. If we are forcefully migrating an interrupt (because the affinity mask no longer identifies any online CPUs) then we should update the IRQ affinity mask to reflect the new CPU set. Failure to do so can potentially leave /proc/irq/n/smp_affinity identifying only offline CPUs, which may confuse userspace IRQ balancing daemons. This patch updates migrate_one_irq to copy the affinity mask when the interrupt chip returns IRQ_SET_MASK_OK after forcefully changing the affinity of an interrupt.

When performing a kexec on an SMP system, the secondary cores are stopped by calling machine_shutdown(), which in turn issues IPIs to offline the other CPUs. Unfortunately, this isn't enough to reboot the cores into a new kernel (since they are just executing a cpu_relax loop somewhere in memory) so we make use of platform_cpu_kill, part of the CPU hotplug implementation, to place the cores somewhere safe. This function expects to be called on the killing CPU for each core that it takes out. This patch moves the platform_cpu_kill callback out of the IPI handler and into smp_send_stop, therefore ensuring that it executes on the killing CPU rather than on the victim, matching what the hotplug code requires.

TPIDRURW is a user read/write register forming part of the group of thread registers in more recent versions of the ARM architecture (~v6+). Currently, the kernel does not touch this register, which allows tasks to communicate covertly by reading and writing to the register without context-switching affecting its contents. This patch clears TPIDRURW when TPIDRURO is updated via the set_tls macro, which is called directly from __switch_to. Since the current behaviour makes the register useless to userspace as far as thread pointers are concerned, simply clearing the register (rather than saving and restoring it) will not cause any problems to userspace.

This resulted in (depending on workload) about a 100 times as many xen_version hypercalls as necessary. Fix this by correcting the sense of the conditional jump. This seems to give a significant performance benefit for some workloads. There is some subtle tricksy "..since the check here is trying to check both pending and masked in a single cmpw, but I think this is correct. It will call check_events now only when the combined mask+pending word is 0x0001 (aka unmasked, pending)."
