      Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer · d7627467
      由 David Howells 提交于 
      Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles
correctly on ARM:

arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type

This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for
the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to.  This is
because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to
copy_strings_kernel().  A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename
pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel().

do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv
or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as
const should be fine.

Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match.

This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.

      debug lockups: Improve lockup detection, fix generic arch fallback · 47cab6a7
      由 Ingo Molnar 提交于 
      As Andrew noted, my previous patch ("debug lockups: Improve lockup
detection") broke/removed SysRq-L support from architecture that do
not provide a __trigger_all_cpu_backtrace implementation.

Restore a fallback path and clean up the SysRq-L machinery a bit:

 - Rename the arch method to arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace()

 - Simplify the define

 - Document the method a bit - in the hope of more architectures
   adding support for it.

[ The patch touches Sparc code for the rename. ]

      sparc64: On non-Niagara, need to touch NMI watchdog in NOHZ mode. · 802c64b3
      由 David S. Miller 提交于 
      When we're idling in NOHZ mode, timer interrupts are not running.

Evidence of processing timer interrupts is what the NMI watchdog
uses to determine if the CPU is stuck.

On Niagara, we'll yield the cpu.  This will make the cpu, at
worst, hang out in the hypervisor until an interrupt arrives.
This will prevent the NMI watchdog timer from firing.

However on non-Niagara we just loop executing instructions
which will cause the NMI watchdog to keep firing.  It won't
see timer interrupts happening so it will think the cpu is
stuck.

Fix this by touching the NMI watchdog in the cpu idle loop
on non-Niagara machines.

o Update sparc/Makefile to the changes
o Update sparc/kernel/Makefile to include the sparc64 files

NOTE: This commit changes link order on sparc64!

Link order had to change for either of sparc32 and sparc64.
And assuming sparc64 see more testing than sparc32 change link
order on sparc64 where issues will be caught faster.

      sparc64: Kill __show_regs(). · dbf3e950
      由 David S. Miller 提交于 
      The story is that what we used to do when we actually used
smp_report_regs() is that if you specifically only wanted to have the
current cpu's registers dumped you would call "__show_regs()"
otherwise you would call show_regs() which also invoked
smp_report_regs().

Now that we killed off smp_report_regs() there is no longer any
reason to have these two routines, just show_regs() is sufficient.

Also kill off a stray declaration of show_regs() in sparc64_ksym.c

      nohz: prevent tick stop outside of the idle loop · b8f8c3cf
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      Jack Ren and Eric Miao tracked down the following long standing
problem in the NOHZ code:

	scheduler switch to idle task
	enable interrupts

Window starts here

	----> interrupt happens (does not set NEED_RESCHED)
	      	irq_exit() stops the tick

	----> interrupt happens (does set NEED_RESCHED)

	return from schedule()
	
	cpu_idle(): preempt_disable();

Window ends here

The interrupts can happen at any point inside the race window. The
first interrupt stops the tick, the second one causes the scheduler to
rerun and switch away from idle again and we end up with the tick
disabled.

The fact that it needs two interrupts where the first one does not set
NEED_RESCHED and the second one does made the bug obscure and extremly
hard to reproduce and analyse. Kudos to Jack and Eric.

Solution: Limit the NOHZ functionality to the idle loop to make sure
that we can not run into such a situation ever again.

cpu_idle()
{
	preempt_disable();

	while(1) {
		 tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(1); <- tell NOHZ code that we
		 			          are in the idle loop

		 while (!need_resched())
		       halt();

		 tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(); <- disables NOHZ mode
		 preempt_enable_no_resched();
		 schedule();
		 preempt_disable();
	}
}

In hindsight we should have done this forever, but ... 

/me grabs a large brown paperbag.

      sparc64: Add global register dumping facility. · 93dae5b7
      由 David S. Miller 提交于 
      When a cpu really is stuck in the kernel, it can be often
impossible to figure out which cpu is stuck where.  The
worst case is when the stuck cpu has interrupts disabled.

Therefore, implement a global cpu state capture that uses
SMP message interrupts which are not disabled by the
normal IRQ enable/disable APIs of the kernel.

As long as we can get a sysrq 'y' to the kernel, we can
get a dump.  Even if the console interrupt cpu is wedged,
we can trigger it from userspace using /proc/sysrq-trigger

The output is made compact so that this facility is more
useful on high cpu count systems, which is where this
facility will likely find itself the most useful :)

      sparc64: Fix syscall restart, for real... · 2678fefe
      由 David S. Miller 提交于 
      The change I put into copy_thread() just papered over the real
problem.

When we are looking to see if we should do a syscall restart, when
deliverying a signal, we should only interpret the syscall return
value as an error if the carry condition code(s) are set.

Otherwise it's a success return.

Also, sigreturn paths should do a pt_regs_clear_trap_type().

It turns out that doing a syscall restart when returning from a fork()
does and should happen, from time to time.  Even if copy_thread()
returns success, copy_process() can still unwind and signal
-ERESTARTNOINTR in the parent.

      sparc: Remove old style signal frame support. · 5526b7e4
      由 David S. Miller 提交于 
      Back around the same time we were bootstrapping the first 32-bit sparc
Linux kernel with a SunOS userland, we made the signal frame match
that of SunOS.

By the time we even started putting together a native Linux userland
for 32-bit Sparc we realized this layout wasn't sufficient for Linux's
needs.

Therefore we changed the layout, yet kept support for the old style
signal frame layout in there.  The detection mechanism is that we had
sys_sigaction() start passing in a negative signal number to indicate
"new style signal frames please".

Anyways, no binaries exist in the world that use the old stuff.  In
fact, I bet Jakub Jelinek and myself are the only two people who ever
had such binaries to be honest.

So let's get rid of this stuff.

I added an assertion using WARN_ON_ONCE() that makes sure 32-bit
applications are passing in that negative signal number still.
