This patch adds a jited flag into sk_filter struct in order to indicate whether a filter is currently jited or not. The size of sk_filter is not being expanded as the 32 bit 'len' member allows upper bits to be reused since a filter can currently only grow as large as BPF_MAXINSNS. Therefore, there's enough room also for other in future needed flags to reuse 'len' field if necessary. The jited flag also allows for having alternative interpreter functions running as currently, we can only detect jit compiled filters by testing fp->bpf_func to not equal the address of sk_run_filter().

In arch_cpu_idle() we must enable %pil based interrupts before potentially invoking the hypervisor cpu yield call. As per the Hypervisor API documentation for cpu_yield: Interrupts which are blocked by some mechanism other that pstate.ie (for example %pil) are not guaranteed to cause a return from this service. It seems that only first generation Niagara chips are hit by this bug. My best guess is that later chips implement this in hardware and wake up anyways from %pil events, whereas in first generation chips the yield is implemented completely in hypervisor code and requires %pil to be enabled in order to wake properly from this call.

Subsystems that want to register CPU hotplug callbacks, as well as perform initialization for the CPUs that are already online, often do it as shown below: get_online_cpus(); for_each_online_cpu(cpu) init_cpu(cpu); register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier); put_online_cpus(); This is wrong, since it is prone to ABBA deadlocks involving the cpu_add_remove_lock and the cpu_hotplug.lock (when running concurrently with CPU hotplug operations). Instead, the correct and race-free way of performing the callback registration is: cpu_notifier_register_begin(); for_each_online_cpu(cpu) init_cpu(cpu); /* Note the use of the double underscored version of the API */ __register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier); cpu_notifier_register_done(); Fix the sysfs code in sparc by using this latter form of callback registration.

No architecture uses the "data" parameter in ftrace_dyn_arch_init() in any way, it just sets the value to 0. And this is used as a return value in the caller -- ftrace_init, which just checks the retval against zero. Note there is also "return 0" in every ftrace_dyn_arch_init. So it is enough to check the retval and remove all the indirect sets of data on all archs.

The pci.o is built for SPARC64_PCI -- which is bool, and hence this code is either present or absent. It will never be modular, so using module_init as an alias for __initcall can be somewhat misleading. Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into module.h in the future. If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that would be a worse thing. Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one of the priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets mapped onto device_initcall, our use of device_initcall directly in this change means that the runtime impact is zero -- it will remain at level 6 in initcall ordering.

For user space packet capturing libraries such as libpcap, there's currently only one way to check which BPF extensions are supported by the kernel, that is, commit aa1113d9 ("net: filter: return -EINVAL if BPF_S_ANC* operation is not supported"). For querying all extensions at once this might be rather inconvenient. Therefore, this patch introduces a new option which can be used as an argument for getsockopt(), and allows one to obtain information about which BPF extensions are supported by the current kernel. As David Miller suggests, we do not need to define any bits right now and status quo can just return 0 in order to state that this versions supports SKF_AD_PROTOCOL up to SKF_AD_PAY_OFFSET. Later additions to BPF extensions need to add their bits to the bpf_tell_extensions() function, as documented in the comment.

A number of situations currently require the heavyweight smp_mb(), even though there is no need to order prior stores against later loads. Many architectures have much cheaper ways to handle these situations, but the Linux kernel currently has no portable way to make use of them. This commit therefore supplies smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release() to remedy this situation. The new smp_load_acquire() primitive orders the specified load against any subsequent reads or writes, while the new smp_store_release() primitive orders the specifed store against any prior reads or writes. These primitives allow array-based circular FIFOs to be implemented without an smp_mb(), and also allow a theoretical hole in rcu_assign_pointer() to be closed at no additional expense on most architectures. In addition, the RCU experience transitioning from explicit smp_read_barrier_depends() and smp_wmb() to rcu_dereference() and rcu_assign_pointer(), respectively resulted in substantial improvements in readability. It therefore seems likely that replacing other explicit barriers with smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release() will provide similar benefits. It appears that roughly half of the explicit barriers in core kernel code might be so replaced. [Changelog by PaulMck] Reviewed-by: N"Paul E.

We're going to be adding a few new barrier primitives, and in order to avoid endless duplication make more agressive use of asm-generic/barrier.h. Change the asm-generic/barrier.h such that it allows partial barrier definitions and fills out the rest with defaults. There are a few architectures (m32r, m68k) that could probably do away with their barrier.h file entirely but are kept for now due to their unconventional nop() implementation.

This reverts commit 145e1c00. This commit broke the behavior of __copy_from_user_inatomic when it is only partially successful. Instead of returning the number of bytes not copied, it now returns 1. This translates to the wrong value being returned by iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic. xfstests generic/246 and LTP writev01 both fail on btrfs and nfs because of this.

These interfaces: pcibios_resource_to_bus(struct pci_dev *dev, *bus_region, *resource) pcibios_bus_to_resource(struct pci_dev *dev, *resource, *bus_region) took a pci_dev, but they really depend only on the pci_bus. And we want to use them in resource allocation paths where we have the bus but not a device, so this patch converts them to take the pci_bus instead of the pci_dev: pcibios_resource_to_bus(struct pci_bus *bus, *bus_region, *resource) pcibios_bus_to_resource(struct pci_bus *bus, *resource, *bus_region) In fact, with standard PCI-PCI bridges, they only depend on the host bridge, because that's the only place address translation occurs, but we aren't going that far yet.

There are a few subtle races, between change_protection_range (used by mprotect and change_prot_numa) on one side, and NUMA page migration and compaction on the other side. The basic race is that there is a time window between when the PTE gets made non-present (PROT_NONE or NUMA), and the TLB is flushed. During that time, a CPU may continue writing to the page. This is fine most of the time, however compaction or the NUMA migration code may come in, and migrate the page away. When that happens, the CPU may continue writing, through the cached translation, to what is no longer the current memory location of the process. This only affects x86, which has a somewhat optimistic pte_accessible. All other architectures appear to be safe, and will either always flush, or flush whenever there is a valid mapping, even with no permissions (SPARC). The basic race looks like this: CPU A CPU B CPU C load TLB entry make entry PTE/PMD_NUMA fault on entry read/write old page start migrating page change PTE/PMD to new page read/write old page [*] flush TLB reload TLB from new entry read/write new page lose data [*] the old page may belong to a new user at this point! The obvious fix is to flush remote TLB entries, by making sure that pte_accessible aware of the fact that PROT_NONE and PROT_NUMA memory may still be accessible if there is a TLB flush pending for the mm. This should fix both NUMA migration and compaction.
