      tracing: Do not enable function event with enable · 9b63776f
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      With the adding of function tracing event to perf, it caused a
side effect that produces the following warning when enabling all
events in ftrace:

 # echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/enable

[console]
event trace: Could not enable event function

This is because when enabling all events via the debugfs system
it ignores events that do not have a ->reg() function assigned.
This was to skip over the ftrace internal events (as they are
not TRACE_EVENTs). But as the ftrace function event now has
a ->reg() function attached to it for use with perf, it is no
longer ignored.

Worse yet, this ->reg() function is being called when it should
not be. It returns an error and causes the above warning to
be printed.

By adding a new event_call flag (TRACE_EVENT_FL_IGNORE_ENABLE)
and have all ftrace internel event structures have it set,
setting the events/enable will no longe try to incorrectly enable
the function event and does not warn.

      perf stat: handle ENXIO error for perf_event_open · 20d23aaa

  Error: open_counter returned with 6 (No such device or address). /bin/dmesg may provide additional information.

  Fatal: Not all events could be opened.

The problem is that until 2.6.37 (behavior changed with commit b0a873eb)
perf on PPC returns ENXIO when hw_perf_event_init() fails. With this
patch we get the expected behavior:

      powerpc/irqdomain: Fix broken NR_IRQ references · 4013369f
      由 Grant Likely 提交于 
      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().

      powerpc/8xx: Fix NR_IRQ bugs and refactor 8xx interrupt controller · 8751ed14
      由 Grant Likely 提交于 
      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.

      autofs: make the autofsv5 packet file descriptor use a packetized pipe · 64f371bc
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      The autofs packet size has had a very unfortunate size problem on x86:
because the alignment of 'u64' differs in 32-bit and 64-bit modes, and
because the packet data was not 8-byte aligned, the size of the autofsv5
packet structure differed between 32-bit and 64-bit modes despite
looking otherwise identical (300 vs 304 bytes respectively).

We first fixed that up by making the 64-bit compat mode know about this
problem in commit a32744d4 ("autofs: work around unhappy compat
problem on x86-64"), and that made a 32-bit 'systemd' work happily on a
64-bit kernel because everything then worked the same way as on a 32-bit
kernel.

But it turned out that 'automount' had actually known and worked around
this problem in user space, so fixing the kernel to do the proper 32-bit
compatibility handling actually *broke* 32-bit automount on a 64-bit
kernel, because it knew that the packet sizes were wrong and expected
those incorrect sizes.

As a result, we ended up reverting that compatibility mode fix, and
thus breaking systemd again, in commit fcbf94b9.

With both automount and systemd doing a single read() system call, and
verifying that they get *exactly* the size they expect but using
different sizes, it seemed that fixing one of them inevitably seemed to
break the other.  At one point, a patch I seriously considered applying
from Michael Tokarev did a "strcmp()" to see if it was automount that
was doing the operation.  Ugly, ugly.

However, a prettier solution exists now thanks to the packetized pipe
mode.  By marking the communication pipe as being packetized (by simply
setting the O_DIRECT flag), we can always just write the bigger packet
size, and if user-space does a smaller read, it will just get that
partial end result and the extra alignment padding will simply be thrown
away.

This makes both automount and systemd happy, since they now get the size
they asked for, and the kernel side of autofs simply no longer needs to
care - it could pad out the packet arbitrarily.

Of course, if there is some *other* user of autofs (please, please,
please tell me it ain't so - and we haven't heard of any) that tries to
read the packets with multiple writes, that other user will now be
broken - the whole point of the packetized mode is that one system call
gets exactly one packet, and you cannot read a packet in pieces.

      pipes: add a "packetized pipe" mode for writing · 9883035a
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      The actual internal pipe implementation is already really about
individual packets (called "pipe buffers"), and this simply exposes that
as a special packetized mode.

When we are in the packetized mode (marked by O_DIRECT as suggested by
Alan Cox), a write() on a pipe will not merge the new data with previous
writes, so each write will get a pipe buffer of its own.  The pipe
buffer is then marked with the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_PACKET flag, which in turn
will tell the reader side to break the read at that boundary (and throw
away any partial packet contents that do not fit in the read buffer).

End result: as long as you do writes less than PIPE_BUF in size (so that
the pipe doesn't have to split them up), you can now treat the pipe as a
packet interface, where each read() system call will read one packet at
a time.  You can just use a sufficiently big read buffer (PIPE_BUF is
sufficient, since bigger than that doesn't guarantee atomicity anyway),
and the return value of the read() will naturally give you the size of
the packet.

NOTE! We do not support zero-sized packets, and zero-sized reads and
writes to a pipe continue to be no-ops.  Also note that big packets will
currently be split at write time, but that the size at which that
happens is not really specified (except that it's bigger than PIPE_BUF).
Currently that limit is the system page size, but we might want to
explicitly support bigger packets some day.

The main user for this is going to be the autofs packet interface,
allowing us to stop having to care so deeply about exact packet sizes
(which have had bugs with 32/64-bit compatibility modes).  But user
space can create packetized pipes with "pipe2(fd, O_DIRECT)", which will
fail with an EINVAL on kernels that do not support this interface.

      Revert "autofs: work around unhappy compat problem on x86-64" · fcbf94b9
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      This reverts commit a32744d4.

While that commit was technically the right thing to do, and made the
x86-64 compat mode work identically to native 32-bit mode (and thus
fixing the problem with a 32-bit systemd install on a 64-bit kernel), it
turns out that the automount binaries had workarounds for this compat
problem.

Now, the workarounds are disgusting: doing an "uname()" to find out the
architecture of the kernel, and then comparing it for the 64-bit cases
and fixing up the size of the read() in automount for those.  And they
were confused: it's not actually a generic 64-bit issue at all, it's
very much tied to just x86-64, which has different alignment for an
'u64' in 64-bit mode than in 32-bit mode.

But the end result is that fixing the compat layer actually breaks the
case of a 32-bit automount on a x86-64 kernel.

There are various approaches to fix this (including just doing a
"strcmp()" on current->comm and comparing it to "automount"), but I
think that I will do the one that teaches pipes about a special "packet
mode", which will allow user space to not have to care too deeply about
the padding at the end of the autofs packet.

That change will make the compat workaround unnecessary, so let's revert
it first, and get automount working again in compat mode.  The
packetized pipes will then fix autofs for systemd.

      ARM: 7406/1: hotplug: copy the affinity mask when forcefully migrating IRQs · 5e7371de
      由 Will Deacon 提交于 
      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.

      ARM: 7405/1: kexec: call platform_cpu_kill on the killer rather than the victim · 6fa99b7f
      由 Will Deacon 提交于 
      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.

      ARM: 7403/1: tls: remove covert channel via TPIDRURW · 6a1c5312
      由 Will Deacon 提交于 
      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.
