The truncate syscall has a signed long parameter, so when using a 32- bit userspace with a 64-bit kernel the argument is zero-extended instead of sign-extended. Adding the compat_sys_truncate function fixes the issue. This was noticed during an LSB truncate test failure. The test was checking for the correct error number set when truncate is called with a length of -1. The test can be found at: http://bzr.linuxfoundation.org/lsb/devel/runtime-test?cmd=inventory;rev=stewb%40linux-foundation.org-20090626205411-sfb23cc0tjj7jzgm;path=modules/vsx-pcts/tset/POSIX.os/files/truncate/ BenH: Added compat_sys_ftruncate() as well, same issue.

The current definitions set ranges and defaults for 32 and 64-bit only using "PPC_STD_MMU" which means hash based MMU. This uselessly restrict the usefulness for the upcoming 64-bit BookE port, but more than that, it's broken on 32-bit since the only 32-bit platform supporting multiple page sizes currently is 44x which does -not- have PPC_STD_MMU_32 set. This fixes it by using PPC64 and PPC32 instead. Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

The STAB code used on Power3 and RS/64 uses a second scratch SPRG to save a GPR in order to decide whether to go to do_stab_bolted_* or to handle a normal data access exception. This prevents our scheme of freeing SPRG3 which is user visible for user uses since we cannot use SPRG0 which, on RS/64, seems to be read-only for supervisor mode (like POWER4). This reworks the STAB exception entry to use the PACA as temporary storage instead. Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

The kernel uses SPRG registers for various purposes, typically in low level assembly code as scratch registers or to hold per-cpu global infos such as the PACA or the current thread_info pointer. We want to be able to easily shuffle the usage of those registers as some implementations have specific constraints realted to some of them, for example, some have userspace readable aliases, etc.. and the current choice isn't always the best. This patch should not change any code generation, and replaces the usage of SPRN_SPRGn everywhere in the kernel with a named replacement and adds documentation next to the definition of the names as to what those are used for on each processor family. The only parts that still use the original numbers are bits of KVM or suspend/resume code that just blindly needs to save/restore all the SPRGs.

TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE is not used with the new top down mmap layout. We can reuse this preload slot by loading in the segment at 0x10000000, where almost all PowerPC binaries are linked at. On a microbenchmark that bounces a token between two 64bit processes over pipes and calls gettimeofday each iteration (to access the VDSO), both the 32bit and 64bit context switch rate improves (tested on a 4GHz POWER6): 32bit: 273k/sec -> 283k/sec 64bit: 277k/sec -> 284k/sec Signed-off-by: NAnton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

With the new top down layout it is likely that the pc and stack will be in the same segment, because the pc is most likely in a library allocated via a top down mmap. Right now we bail out early if these segments match. Rearrange the SLB preload code to sanity check all SLB preload addresses are not in the kernel, then check all addresses for conflicts.

On 64bit applications the VDSO is the only thing in segment 0. Since the VDSO is position independent we can remove the hint and let get_unmapped_area pick an area.

The bitops.h functions that operate on a single bit in a bitfield are implemented by operating on the corresponding word location. In all cases the inner logic is valid if the mask being applied has more than one bit set, so this patch exposes those inner operations. Indeed, set_bits() was already available, but it duplicated code from set_bit() (rather than making the latter a wrapper) - it was also missing the PPC405_ERR77() workaround and the "volatile" address qualifier present in other APIs. This corrects that, and exposes the other multi-bit equivalents. One advantage of these multi-bit forms is that they allow word-sized variables to essentially be their own spinlocks, eg. very useful for state machines where an atomic "flags" variable can obviate the need for any additional locking.

The workaround enabled by CONFIG_MPIC_BROKEN_REGREAD does not work on non-broken MPICs. The symptom is no interrupts being received. The fix is twofold. Firstly the code was broken for multiple isus, we need to index into the shadow array with the src_no, not the idx. Secondly, we always do the read, but only use the VECPRI_MASK and VECPRI_ACTIVITY bits from the hardware, the rest of "val" comes from the shadow.

If node_load[] is cleared everytime build_zonelists() is called,node_load[] will have no help to find the next node that should appear in the given node's fallback list. Because of the bug, zonelist's node_order is not calculated as expected. This bug affects on big machine, which has asynmetric node distance. [synmetric NUMA's node distance] 0 1 2 0 10 12 12 1 12 10 12 2 12 12 10 [asynmetric NUMA's node distance] 0 1 2 0 10 12 20 1 12 10 14 2 20 14 10 This (my bug) is very old but no one has reported this for a long time. Maybe because the number of asynmetric NUMA is very small and they use cpuset for customizing node memory allocation fallback.

The commit 2ff05b2b (oom: move oom_adj value) moveed the oom_adj value to the mm_struct. It was a very good first step for sanitize OOM. However Paul Menage reported the commit makes regression to his job scheduler. Current OOM logic can kill OOM_DISABLED process. Why? His program has the code of similar to the following. ... set_oom_adj(OOM_DISABLE); /* The job scheduler never killed by oom */ ... if (vfork() == 0) { set_oom_adj(0); /* Invoked child can be killed */ execve("foo-bar-cmd"); } .... vfork() parent and child are shared the same mm_struct. then above set_oom_adj(0) doesn't only change oom_adj for vfork() child, it's also change oom_adj for vfork() parent. Then, vfork() parent (job scheduler) lost OOM immune and it was killed. Actually, fork-setting-exec idiom is very frequently used in userland program. We must not break this assumption. Then, this patch revert commit 2ff05b2b and related commit.
