      PHYLIB: fix an interrupt loop potential when halting · 6daf6531
      Maciej W. Rozycki 提交于
      Ensure the PHY_HALTED state is not entered with the IRQ asserted as it
      could lead to an interrupt loop.
      
      There is a small window in phy_stop(), where the state of the PHY machine
      indicates it has been halted, but its interrupt output might still be
      unmasked.  If an interrupt goes active right at this moment it will loop as
      the phy_interrupt() handler exits immediately with IRQ_NONE if the halted
      state is seen.  It is unsafe to extend the phydev spinlock to cover
      phy_interrupt().  It is safe to swap the order of the actions though as all
      the competing places to unmask the interrupt output of the PHY, which are
      phy_change() and phy_timer() are already covered with the lock as is the
      sequence in question.

      PHYLIB: IRQ event workqueue handling fixes · 0ac49527
      Maciej W. Rozycki 提交于
      Keep track of disable_irq_nosync() invocations and call enable_irq() the
      right number of times if work has been cancelled that would include them.
      
      Now that the call to flush_work_keventd() (problematic because of
      rtnl_mutex being held) has been replaced by cancel_work_sync() another
      issue has arisen and been left unresolved.  As the MDIO bus cannot be
      accessed from the interrupt context the PHY interrupt handler uses
      disable_irq_nosync() to prevent from looping and schedules some work to be
      done as a softirq, which, apart from handling the state change of the
      originating PHY, is responsible for reenabling the interrupt.  Now if the
      interrupt line is shared by another device and a call to the softirq
      handler has been cancelled, that call to enable_irq() never happens and the
      other device cannot use its interrupt anymore as its stuck disabled.
      
      I decided to use a counter rather than a flag because there may be more
      than one call to phy_change() cancelled in the queue -- a real one and a
      fake one triggered by free_irq() if DEBUG_SHIRQ is used, if nothing else.
      Therefore because of its nesting property enable_irq() has to be called the
      right number of times to match the number disable_irq_nosync() was called
      and restore the original state.  This DEBUG_SHIRQ feature is also the
      reason why free_irq() has to be called before cancel_work_sync().
      
      While at it I updated the comment about phy_stop_interrupts() being called
      from `keventd' -- this is no longer relevant as the use of
      cancel_work_sync() makes such an approach unnecessary.  OTOH a similar
      comment referring to flush_scheduled_work() in phy_stop() still applies as
      using cancel_work_sync() there would be dangerous.
      
      Checked with checkpatch.pl and at the run time (with and without
      DEBUG_SHIRQ).

      PHYLIB: Spinlock fixes for softirqs · 9ff8c68b
      Maciej W. Rozycki 提交于
      Use spin_lock_bh()/spin_unlock_bh() for the phydev lock throughout as it
      is used in phy_timer() that is called as a softirq and all the other
      operations may happen in the user context.
      
      There has been a change recently that did such a conversion for some of the
      operations on the lock, but some have been left intact.  Many of them,
      perhaps all, may be called in the user context and I was able to trigger
      recursive spinlock acquisition indeed, so I think for the sake of long-term
      maintenance it is best to convert them all, even if unnecessarily for one
      or two -- better safe than sorry.
      
      Perhaps one in phy_timer() could actually be skipped as only called as a
      softirq -- I can send an update if that sounds like a good idea.
      
      Checked with checkpatch.pl and at the runtime.

      [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h · cd354f1a
      Tim Schmielau 提交于
      After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
      recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
      There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
      anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
      macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
      course of cleaning it up.
      
      To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
      removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.
      
      Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
      arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
      allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
      configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
      introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
      by unnecessarily included header files).

      Add "run_scheduled_work()" workqueue function · 68380b58
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This allows workqueue users to run just their own pending work, rather
      than wait for the whole workqueue to finish running.  This solves the
      deadlock with networking libphy that was due to other workqueue entries
      possibly needing a lock that was held by the routine that wanted to
      flush its own work.
      
      It's not wonderful: if you absolutely need to synchronize with the work
      function having been executed, any user strictly speaking should have
      its own completion tracking logic, since when we run things explicitly
      by hand, the generic workqueue layer can no longer help us synchronize.
      
      Also, this is strictly only usable for work that has been scheduled
      without any delayed timers.  You can not mix the new interface with
      schedule_delayed_work().
      
      But it's better than what we had currently.

      [PATCH] Fixed a number of bugs in the PHY Layer · 6b655529
      Andy Fleming 提交于
      * genphy_update_link is now exported
      * Added a fix from ncase@xes-inc.com which changes forcing so it
        only updates the link.  Otherwise, it never tries the lower
        values, since it is always overwriting the speed/duplex values
        with the current ones, rather than the intended ones.
      * Fixed a bug where bringing up a PHY with no link caused it to
        timeout, and enter forcing mode.  Once in forcing mode,
        plugging in the link didn't autonegotiate.  Now the AN state
        detects the lack of link, and enters the NO_LINK state.  AN
        only times out if the link is up and AN fails
      * Cleaned up the PHY_AN case, reducing one level of indentation
        for the timeout code.

      [PATCH] 2.6.18: sb1250-mac: Phylib IRQ handling fixes · 3c3070d7
      Maciej W. Rozycki 提交于
       This patch fixes a couple of problems discovered with interrupt handling
      in the phylib core, namely:
      
      1. The driver uses timer and workqueue calls, but does not include
         <linux/timer.h> nor <linux/workqueue.h>.
      
      2. The driver uses schedule_work() for handling interrupts, but does not
         make sure any pending work scheduled thus has been completed before
         driver's structures get freed from memory.  This is especially
         important as interrupts may keep arriving if the line is shared with
         another PHY.
      
         The solution is to ignore phy_interrupt() calls if the reported device
         has already been halted and calling flush_scheduled_work() from
         phy_stop_interrupts() (but guarded with current_is_keventd() in case
         the function has been called through keventd from the MAC device's
         close call to avoid a deadlock on the netlink lock).

      IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers · 7d12e780
      David Howells 提交于
      Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
      of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
      Linux kernel.
      
      The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
      space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
      from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
      (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
      
      Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
      something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
      maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
      handling.
      
      Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
      through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
      device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
      interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
      device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
      layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
      
      I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
      main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
      I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
      with minimal configurations.
      
      This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
      Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
      
      	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
      
      And put the old one back at the end:
      
      	set_irq_regs(old_regs);
      
      Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
      
      In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
      
      	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
      	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
      	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
      	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
      
      I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
      except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
      
      Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
      
       (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
           the input_dev struct.
      
       (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
           something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
           pointer or not.
      
       (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
           irq_handler_t.
