      Linux Kernel Markers: support multiple probes · fb40bd78
      由 Mathieu Desnoyers 提交于 
      RCU style multiple probes support for the Linux Kernel Markers.  Common case
(one probe) is still fast and does not require dynamic allocation or a
supplementary pointer dereference on the fast path.

- Move preempt disable from the marker site to the callback.

Since we now have an internal callback, move the preempt disable/enable to the
callback instead of the marker site.

Since the callback change is done asynchronously (passing from a handler that
supports arguments to a handler that does not setup the arguments is no
arguments are passed), we can safely update it even if it is outside the
preempt disable section.

- Move probe arm to probe connection. Now, a connected probe is automatically
  armed.

Remove MARK_MAX_FORMAT_LEN, unused.

This patch modifies the Linux Kernel Markers API : it removes the probe
"arm/disarm" and changes the probe function prototype : it now expects a
va_list * instead of a "...".

If we want to have more than one probe connected to a marker at a given
time (LTTng, or blktrace, ssytemtap) then we need this patch. Without it,
connecting a second probe handler to a marker will fail.

It allow us, for instance, to do interesting combinations :

Do standard tracing with LTTng and, eventually, to compute statistics
with SystemTAP, or to have a special trigger on an event that would call
a systemtap script which would stop flight recorder tracing.

      [PATCH] Generic BUG implementation · 7664c5a1
      由 Jeremy Fitzhardinge 提交于 
      This patch adds common handling for kernel BUGs, for use by architectures as
they wish.  The code is derived from arch/powerpc.

The advantages of having common BUG handling are:
 - consistent BUG reporting across architectures
 - shared implementation of out-of-line file/line data
 - implement CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE consistently

This means that in inline impact of BUG is just the illegal instruction
itself, which is an improvement for i386 and x86-64.

A BUG is represented in the instruction stream as an illegal instruction,
which has file/line information associated with it.  This extra information is
stored in the __bug_table section in the ELF file.

When the kernel gets an illegal instruction, it first confirms it might
possibly be from a BUG (ie, in kernel mode, the right illegal instruction).
It then calls report_bug().  This searches __bug_table for a matching
instruction pointer, and if found, prints the corresponding file/line
information.  If report_bug() determines that it wasn't a BUG which caused the
trap, it returns BUG_TRAP_TYPE_NONE.

Some architectures (powerpc) implement WARN using the same mechanism; if the
illegal instruction was the result of a WARN, then report_bug(Q) returns
CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE; otherwise it returns BUG_TRAP_TYPE_BUG.

lib/bug.c keeps a list of loaded modules which can be searched for __bug_table
entries.  The architecture must call
module_bug_finalize()/module_bug_cleanup() from its corresponding
module_finalize/cleanup functions.

Unsetting CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE will reduce the kernel size by some amount.
At the very least, filename and line information will not be recorded for each
but, but architectures may decide to store no extra information per BUG at
all.

Unfortunately, gcc doesn't have a general way to mark an asm() as noreturn, so
architectures will generally have to include an infinite loop (or similar) in
the BUG code, so that gcc knows execution won't continue beyond that point.
gcc does have a __builtin_trap() operator which may be useful to achieve the
same effect, unfortunately it cannot be used to actually implement the BUG
itself, because there's no way to get the instruction's address for use in
generating the __bug_table entry.

      [PATCH] fix Module taint flags listing in Oops/panic · fa3ba2e8
      由 Florin Malita 提交于 
      Module taint flags listing in Oops/panic has a couple of issues:

* taint_flags() doesn't null-terminate the buffer after printing the flags

* per-module taints are only set if the kernel is not already tainted
  (with that particular flag) => only the first offending module gets its
  taint info correctly updated

Some additional changes:

* 'license_gplok' is no longer needed - equivalent to !(taints &
  TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE) - so we can drop it from struct module *
  exporting module taint info via /proc/module:

pwc 88576 0 - Live 0xf8c32000
evilmod 6784 1 pwc, Live 0xf8bbf000 (PF)

      [PATCH] list module taint flags in Oops/panic · 2bc2d61a
      由 Randy Dunlap 提交于 
      When listing loaded modules during an oops or panic, also list each
module's Tainted flags if non-zero (P: Proprietary or F: Forced load only).

If a module is did not taint the kernel, it is just listed like
	usbcore
but if it did taint the kernel, it is listed like
	wizmodem(PF)

Example:
[ 3260.121718] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000 RIP:
[ 3260.121729]  [<ffffffff8804c099>] :dump_test:proc_dump_test+0x99/0xc8
[ 3260.121742] PGD fe8d067 PUD 264a6067 PMD 0
[ 3260.121748] Oops: 0002 [1] SMP
[ 3260.121753] CPU 1
[ 3260.121756] Modules linked in: dump_test(P) snd_pcm_oss snd_mixer_oss snd_seq snd_seq_device ide_cd generic ohci1394 snd_hda_intel snd_hda_codec snd_pcm snd_timer snd ieee1394 snd_page_alloc piix ide_core arcmsr aic79xx scsi_transport_spi usblp
[ 3260.121785] Pid: 5556, comm: bash Tainted: P      2.6.18-git10 #1

[Alternatively, I can look into listing tainted flags with 'lsmod',
but that won't help in oopsen/panics so much.]

      [SCSI] MODULE_FIRMWARE for binary firmware(s) · 187afbed
      由 Jon Masters 提交于 
      Right now, various kernel modules are being migrated over to use
request_firmware in order to pull in binary firmware blobs from userland
when the module is loaded. This makes sense.

However, there is right now little mechanism in place to automatically
determine which binary firmware blobs must be included with a kernel in
order to satisfy the prerequisites of these drivers. This affects
vendors, but also regular users to a certain extent too.

The attached patch introduces MODULE_FIRMWARE as a mechanism for
advertising that a particular firmware file is to be loaded - it will
then show up via modinfo and could be used e.g. when packaging a kernel.
