      hrtimer: Reset hrtimer cpu base proper on CPU hotplug · d5421ea4
      Thomas Gleixner 提交于
      The hrtimer interrupt code contains a hang detection and mitigation
      mechanism, which prevents that a long delayed hrtimer interrupt causes a
      continous retriggering of interrupts which prevent the system from making
      progress. If a hang is detected then the timer hardware is programmed with
      a certain delay into the future and a flag is set in the hrtimer cpu base
      which prevents newly enqueued timers from reprogramming the timer hardware
      prior to the chosen delay. The subsequent hrtimer interrupt after the delay
      clears the flag and resumes normal operation.
      
      If such a hang happens in the last hrtimer interrupt before a CPU is
      unplugged then the hang_detected flag is set and stays that way when the
      CPU is plugged in again. At that point the timer hardware is not armed and
      it cannot be armed because the hang_detected flag is still active, so
      nothing clears that flag. As a consequence the CPU does not receive hrtimer
      interrupts and no timers expire on that CPU which results in RCU stalls and
      other malfunctions.
      
      Clear the flag along with some other less critical members of the hrtimer
      cpu base to ensure starting from a clean state when a CPU is plugged in.
      
      Thanks to Paul, Sebastian and Anna-Maria for their help to get down to the
      root cause of that hard to reproduce heisenbug. Once understood it's
      trivial and certainly justifies a brown paperbag.

      x86: Mark hpa as a "Designated Reviewer" for the time being · 8a95b74d
      H. Peter Anvin 提交于
      Due to some unfortunate events, I have not been directly involved in
      the x86 kernel patch flow for a while now.  I have also not been able
      to ramp back up by now like I had hoped to, and after reviewing what I
      will need to work on both internally at Intel and elsewhere in the near
      term, it is clear that I am not going to be able to ramp back up until
      late 2018 at the very earliest.
      
      It is not acceptable to not recognize that this load is currently
      taken by Ingo and Thomas without my direct participation, so I mark
      myself as R: (designated reviewer) rather than M: (maintainer) until
      further notice.  This is in fact recognizing the de facto situation
      for the past few years.
      
      I have obviously no intention of going away, and I will do everything
      within my power to improve Linux on x86 and x86 for Linux.  This,
      however, puts credit where it is due and reflects a change of focus.
      
      This patch also removes stale entries for portions of the x86
      architecture which have not been maintained separately from arch/x86
      for a long time.  If there is a reason to re-introduce them then that
      can happen later.

       "RISC-V: We have a new mailing list and git repo!
      
        Sorry to send something essentially as late as possible (Friday after
        an rc9), but we managed to get a mailing list for the RISC-V Linux
        port. We've been using patches@groups.riscv.org for a while, but that
        list has some problems (it's Google Groups and it's shared over all
        RISC-V software projects). The new infaread.org list is much better.
        We just got it on Wednesday but I used it a bit on Thursday to shake
        out all the configuration problems and it appears to be in working
        order.
      
        When I updated the mailing list I noticed that the MAINTAINERS file
        was pointing to our github repo, but now that we have a kernel.org
        repo I'd like to point to that instead so I changed that as well.
        We'll be centralizing all RISC-V Linux related development here as
        that seems to be the saner way to go about it.
      
        I can understand if it's too late to get this into 4.15, but given
        that it's not a code change I was hoping it'd still be OK. It would be
        nice to have the new mailing list and git repo in the release tarballs
        so when people start to find bugs they'll get to the right place"

      Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
      
       1) The per-network-namespace loopback device, and thus its namespace,
          can have its teardown deferred for a long time if a kernel created
          TCP socket closes and the namespace is exiting meanwhile. The kernel
          keeps trying to finish the close sequence until it times out (which
          takes quite some time).
      
          Fix this by forcing the socket closed in this situation, from Dan
          Streetman.
      
       2) Fix regression where we're trying to invoke the update_pmtu method
          on route types (in this case metadata tunnel routes) that don't
          implement the dst_ops method. Fix from Nicolas Dichtel.
      
       3) Fix long standing memory corruption issues in r8169 driver by
          performing the chip statistics DMA programming more correctly. From
          Francois Romieu.
      
       4) Handle local broadcast sends over VRF routes properly, from David
          Ahern.
      
       5) Don't refire the DCCP CCID2 timer endlessly, otherwise the socket
          can never be released. From Alexey Kodanev.
      
       6) Set poll flags properly in VSOCK protocol layer, from Stefan
          Hajnoczi.
