Kexec/kdump currently fails on the IBM QS2x blades when the kexec happens on a CPU other than the initial boot CPU. It turns out that this is the result of mpic_init trying to set affinity of each interrupt vector to the current boot CPU. As far as I can tell, the same problem is likely to exist on any secondary MPIC, because they have to deliver interrupts to the first output all the time. There are two potential solutions for this: either not set up affinity at all for secondary MPICs, or assume that a single CPU output is connected to the upstream interrupt controller and hardcode affinity to that per architecture. This patch implements the second approach, defaulting to the first output. Currently, all known secondary MPICs are routed to their upstream port using the first destination, so we hardcode that.

The MSI capture logic for the axon bridge can sometimes lose interrupts in case of high DMA and interrupt load, when it signals an MSI interrupt to the MPIC interrupt controller while we are already handling another MSI. Each MSI vector gets written into a FIFO buffer in main memory using DMA, and that DMA access is normally flushed by the actual interrupt packet on the IOIF. An MMIO register in the MSIC holds the position of the last entry in the FIFO buffer that was written. However, reading that position does not flush the DMA, so that we can observe stale data in the buffer. In a stress test, we have observed the DMA to arrive up to 14 microseconds after reading the register. This patch works around this problem by retrying the access to the FIFO buffer. We can reliably detect the conditioning by writing an invalid MSI vector into the FIFO buffer after reading from it, assuming that all MSIs we get are valid. After detecting an invalid MSI vector, we udelay(1) in the interrupt cascade for up to 100 times before giving up.

I got a bug report about a distro kernel not booting on a particular machine. It would freeze during boot: > ... > Could not find start_pfn for node 1 > [boot]0015 Setup Done > Built 2 zonelists in Node order, mobility grouping on. Total pages: 123783 > Policy zone: DMA > Kernel command line: > [boot]0020 XICS Init > [boot]0021 XICS Done > PID hash table entries: 4096 (order: 12, 32768 bytes) > clocksource: timebase mult[7d0000] shift[22] registered > Console: colour dummy device 80x25 > console handover: boot [udbg0] -> real [hvc0] > Dentry cache hash table entries: 1048576 (order: 7, 8388608 bytes) > Inode-cache hash table entries: 524288 (order: 6, 4194304 bytes) > freeing bootmem node 0 I've reproduced this on 2.6.27.7. It is caused by commit 8f64e1f2 ("powerpc: Reserve in bootmem lmb reserved regions that cross NUMA nodes"). The problem is that Jon took a loop which was (in pseudocode): for_each_node(nid) NODE_DATA(nid) = careful_alloc(nid); setup_bootmem(nid); reserve_node_bootmem(nid); and broke it up into: for_each_node(nid) NODE_DATA(nid) = careful_alloc(nid); setup_bootmem(nid); for_each_node(nid) reserve_node_bootmem(nid); The issue comes in when the 'careful_alloc()' is called on a node with no memory. It falls back to using bootmem from a previously-initialized node. But, bootmem has not yet been reserved when Jon's patch is applied. It gives back bogus memory (0xc000000000000000) and pukes later in boot. The following patch collapses the loop back together. It also breaks the mark_reserved_regions_for_nid() code out into a function and adds some comments. I think a huge part of introducing this bug is because for loop was too long and hard to read. The actual bug fix here is the: + if (end_pfn <= node->node_start_pfn || + start_pfn >= node_end_pfn) + continue; Signed-off-by: NDave Hansen <dave@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Currently, some PCIe devices on POWER6 machines do not get interrupts assigned correctly. The problem is that OF doesn't create an "interrupt" property for them. The fix is for of_irq_map_pci to fall back to using the value in the PCI interrupt-pin register in config space, as we do when there is no OF device-tree node for the device. I have verified that this works fine with a pair of Squib-E SAS adapter on a P6-570. Acked-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Currently, we can end up in an infinite loop if we get a signal while the kernel has faulted in spufs_ps_fault. Eg: alarm(1); write(fd, some_spu_psmap_register_address, 4); - the write's copy_from_user will fault on the ps mapping, and signal_pending will be non-zero. Because returning from the fault handler will never clear TIF_SIGPENDING, so we'll just keep faulting, resulting in an unkillable process using 100% of CPU. This change returns VM_FAULT_SIGBUS if there's a fatal signal pending, letting us escape the loop. Signed-off-by: NJeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org>

We run into system boot failure with kernel 2.6.28-rc. We found it on a couple of machines, including T61 notebook, nehalem machine, and another HPC NX6325 notebook. All the machines use FedoraCore 8 or FedoraCore 9. With kernel prior to 2.6.28-rc, system boot doesn't fail. I debug it and locate the root cause. Pls. see http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11899 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471517 As a matter of fact, there are 2 bugs. 1)root=/dev/sda1, system boot randomly fails. Mostly, boot for 5 times and fails once. nash has a bug. Some of its functions misuse return value 0. Sometimes, 0 means timeout and no uevent available. Sometimes, 0 means nash gets an uevent, but the uevent isn't block-related (for exmaple, usb). If by coincidence, kernel tells nash that uevents are available, but kernel also set timeout, nash might stops collecting other uevents in queue if current uevent isn't block-related. I work out a patch for nash to fix it. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18858 2) root=LABEL=/, system always can't boot. initrd init reports switchroot fails. Here is an executation branch of nash when booting: (1) nash read /sys/block/sda/dev; Assume major is 8 (on my desktop) (2) nash query /proc/devices with the major number; It found line "8 sd"; (3) nash use 'sd' to search its own probe table to find device (DISK) type for the device and add it to its own list; (4) Later on, it probes all devices in its list to get filesystem labels; scsi register "8 sd" always. When major is 259, nash fails to find the device(DISK) type. I enables CONFIG_DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT=y when compiling kernel, so 259 is picked up for device /dev/sda1, which causes nash to fail to find device (DISK) type. To fixing issue 2), I create a patch for nash and another patch for kernel. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18859 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18837 Below is the patch for kernel 2.6.28-rc4. It registers blkext, a new block device in proc/devices. With 2 patches on nash and 1 patch on kernel, I boot my machines for dozens of times without failure.

Impact: fix section mismatch warning in kernel/profile.c Here, profile_nop function has been called from a non-init function create_hash_tables(void). Which generetes a section mismatch warning. Previously, create_hash_tables(void) was a init function. So, removing __init from create_hash_tables(void) requires profile_nop to be non-init. This patch makes profile_nop function inline and fixes the following warning: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x6ebb6): Section mismatch in reference from the function create_hash_tables() to the function .init.text:profile_nop() The function create_hash_tables() references the function __init profile_nop().

Fixes a data corruption under heavy stress in which pages could be left dirty after all open instances of a inode have been closed. In order to write contiguous pages whenever possible, cifs_writepages() asks pagevec_lookup_tag() for more pages than it may write at one time. Normally, it then resets index just past the last page written before calling pagevec_lookup_tag() again. If cifs_writepages() can't write the first page returned, it wasn't resetting index, and the next call to pagevec_lookup_tag() resulted in skipping all of the pages it previously returned, even though cifs_writepages() did nothing with them. This can result in data loss when the file descriptor is about to be closed. This patch ensures that index gets set back to the next returned page so that none get skipped.
