      sched: x86, track TSC-unstable events · bb29ab26
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      track TSC-unstable events and propagate it to the scheduler code.
      Also allow sched_clock() to be used when the TSC is unstable,
      the rq_clock() wrapper creates a reliable clock out of it.

      sched: zap the migration init / cache-hot balancing code · 0437e109
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      the SMP load-balancer uses the boot-time migration-cost estimation
      code to attempt to improve the quality of balancing. The reason for
      this code is that the discrete priority queues do not preserve
      the order of scheduling accurately, so the load-balancer skips
      tasks that were running on a CPU 'recently'.
      
      this code is fundamental fragile: the boot-time migration cost detector
      doesnt really work on systems that had large L3 caches, it caused boot
      delays on large systems and the whole cache-hot concept made the
      balancing code pretty undeterministic as well.
      
      (and hey, i wrote most of it, so i can say it out loud that it sucks ;-)
      
      under CFS the same purpose of cache affinity can be achieved without
      any special cache-hot special-case: tasks are sorted in the 'timeline'
      tree and the SMP balancer picks tasks from the left side of the
      tree, thus the most cache-cold task is balanced automatically.

      MTRR: Fix race causing set_mtrr to go into infinite loop · d25c1ba2
      Loic Prylli 提交于
      Processors synchronization in set_mtrr requires the .gate field to be set
      after .count field is properly initialized.  Without an explicit barrier,
      the compiler was reordering those memory stores.  That was sometimes
      causing a processor (in ipi_handler) to see the .gate change and decrement
      .count before the latter is set by set_mtrr() (which then hangs in a
      infinite loop with irqs disabled).

      i386: fix regression, endless loop in ptrace singlestep over an int80 · 1e2e99f0
      Jason Wessel 提交于
      The commit 635cf99a introduced a
      regression.  Executing a ptrace single step after certain int80
      accesses will infinitely loop and never advance the PC.
      
      The TIF_SINGLESTEP check should be done on the return from the syscall
      and not before it.
      
      I loops on each single step on the pop right after the int80 which writes out
      to the console.  At that point you can issue as many single steps as you want
      and it will not advance any further.
      
      The test case is below:
      
      /* Test whether singlestep through an int80 syscall works.
       */
      #define _GNU_SOURCE
      #include <stdio.h>
      #include <unistd.h>
      #include <fcntl.h>

      	ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0, 0, 0);
      	kill(getpid(), SIGUSR1);
      	write(fileno(stdout),str,strlen(str));
      	asm ("int $0x80" : : "a" (20)); /* getpid */
      }
      
      static void do_parent()
      {
      	unsigned long eip, expected = 0;
      again:
      	waitpid(child, &status, 0);

      		return;
      
      	if (WIFSTOPPED(status)) {

      [ARM] Fix non-page aligned boot time mappings · 7b9c7b4d
      Russell King 提交于
      AT91SAM9260 stopped booting with the recent changes to MM
      initialisation - it was asking for a non-aligned virtual address
      which caused loops to be non-terminal.  Fix this by rounding
      virtual addresses down, but remember to include the offset in
      the length, and round the length up to the following page.
      
      This means that asking for a mapping of 4K starting at 2K into
      a page maps two pages as one would expect.
