      MIPS: Function tracer: Fix broken function tracing · 58b69401
      由 Al Cooper 提交于 
      Function tracing is currently broken for all 32 bit MIPS platforms.
When tracing is enabled, the kernel immediately hangs on boot.
This is a result of commit b732d439
that changes the kernel/trace/Kconfig file so that is no longer
forces FRAME_POINTER when FUNCTION_TRACING is enabled.

MIPS frame pointers are generally considered to be useless because
they cannot be used to unwind the stack. Unfortunately the MIPS
function tracing code has bugs that are masked by the use of frame
pointers. This commit fixes the bugs so that MIPS frame pointers
don't need to be enabled.

The bugs are a result of the odd calling sequence used to call the trace
routine. This calling sequence is inserted into every traceable function
when the tracing CONFIG option is enabled. This sequence is generated
for 32bit MIPS platforms by the compiler via the "-pg" flag.

Part of the sequence is "addiu sp,sp,-8" in the delay slot after every
call to the trace routine "_mcount" (some legacy thing where 2 arguments
used to be pushed on the stack). The _mcount routine is expected to
adjust the sp by +8 before returning.  So when not disabled, the original
jalr and addiu will be there, so _mcount has to adjust sp.

The problem is that when tracing is disabled for a function, the
"jalr _mcount" instruction is replaced with a nop, but the
"addiu sp,sp,-8" is still executed and the stack pointer is left
trashed. When frame pointers are enabled the problem is masked
because any access to the stack is done through the frame
pointer and the stack pointer is restored from the frame pointer when
the function returns.

This patch writes two nops starting at the address of the "jalr _mcount"
instruction whenever tracing is disabled. This means that the
"addiu sp,sp.-8" will be converted to a nop along with the "jalr".  When
disabled, there will be two nops.

This is SMP safe because the first time this happens is during
ftrace_init() which is before any other processor has been started.
Subsequent calls to enable/disable tracing when other CPUs ARE running
will still be safe because the enable will only change the first nop
to a "jalr" and the disable, while writing 2 nops, will only be changing
the "jalr". This patch also stops using stop_machine() to call the
tracer enable/disable routines and calls them directly because the
routines are SMP safe.

When the kernel first boots we have to be able to handle the gcc
generated jalr, addui sequence until ftrace_init gets a chance to run
and change the sequence. At this point mcount just adjusts the stack
and returns. When ftrace_init runs, we convert the jalr/addui to nops.
Then whenever tracing is enabled we convert the first nop to a "jalr
mcount+8". The mcount+8 entry point skips the stack adjust.

      dm: fix write same requests counting · fe7af2d3
      由 Alasdair G Kergon 提交于 
      When processing write same requests, fix dm to send the configured
number of WRITE SAME requests to the target rather than the number of
discards, which is not always the same.

Device-mapper WRITE SAME support was introduced by commit
23508a96 ("dm: add WRITE SAME support").

      mips: Move __virt_addr_valid() to a place for MIPS 64 · 196897a2
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      Commit d3ce8843 "MIPS: Fix modpost error in modules attepting to use
virt_addr_valid()" moved __virt_addr_valid() from a macro in a header
file to a function in ioremap.c. But ioremap.c is only compiled for MIPS
32, and not for MIPS 64.

When compiling for my yeeloong2, which supposedly supports hibernation,
which compiles kernel/power/snapshot.c which calls virt_addr_valid(), I
got this error:

  LD      init/built-in.o
kernel/built-in.o: In function `memory_bm_free':
snapshot.c:(.text+0x4c9c4): undefined reference to `__virt_addr_valid'
snapshot.c:(.text+0x4ca58): undefined reference to `__virt_addr_valid'
kernel/built-in.o: In function `snapshot_write_next':
(.text+0x4e44c): undefined reference to `__virt_addr_valid'
kernel/built-in.o: In function `snapshot_write_next':
(.text+0x4e890): undefined reference to `__virt_addr_valid'
make[1]: *** [vmlinux] Error 1
make: *** [sub-make] Error 2

I suspect that __virt_addr_valid() is fine for mips 64. I moved it to
mmap.c such that it gets compiled for mips 64 and 32.

      dm thin: fix queue limits stacking · 0f640dca
      由 Mike Snitzer 提交于 
      thin_io_hints() is blindly copying the queue limits from the thin-pool
which can lead to incorrect limits being set.  The fix here simply
deletes the thin_io_hints() hook which leaves the existing stacking
infrastructure to set the limits correctly.

When a thin-pool uses an MD device for the data device a thin device
from the thin-pool must respect MD's constraints about disallowing a bio
from spanning multiple chunks.  Otherwise we can see problems.  If the raid0
chunksize is 1152K and thin-pool chunksize is 256K I see the following
md/raid0 error (with extra debug tracing added to thin_endio) when
mkfs.xfs is executed against the thin device:

md/raid0:md99: make_request bug: can't convert block across chunks or bigger than 1152k 6688 127
device-mapper: thin: bio sector=2080 err=-5 bi_size=130560 bi_rw=17 bi_vcnt=32 bi_idx=0

This extra DM debugging shows that the failing bio is spanning across
the first and second logical 1152K chunk (sector 2080 + 255 takes the
bio beyond the first chunk's boundary of sector 2304).  So the bio
splitting that DM is doing clearly isn't respecting the MD limits.

max_hw_sectors_kb is 127 for both the thin-pool and thin device
(queue_max_hw_sectors returns 255 so we'll excuse sysfs's lack of
precision).  So this explains why bi_size is 130560.

But the thin device's max_hw_sectors_kb should be 4 (PAGE_SIZE) given
that it doesn't have a .merge function (for bio_add_page to consult
indirectly via dm_merge_bvec) yet the thin-pool does sit above an MD
device that has a compulsory merge_bvec_fn.  This scenario is exactly
why DM must resort to sending single PAGE_SIZE bios to the underlying
layer. Some additional context for this is available in the header for
commit 8cbeb67a ("dm: avoid unsupported spanning of md stripe boundaries").

Long story short, the reason a thin device doesn't properly get
configured to have a max_hw_sectors_kb of 4 (PAGE_SIZE) is that
thin_io_hints() is blindly copying the queue limits from the thin-pool
device directly to the thin device's queue limits.

Fix this by eliminating thin_io_hints.  Doing so is safe because the
block layer's queue limits stacking already enables the upper level thin
device to inherit the thin-pool device's discard and minimum_io_size and
optimal_io_size limits that get set in pool_io_hints.  But avoiding the
queue limits copy allows the thin and thin-pool limits to be different
where it is important, namely max_hw_sectors_kb.
