CONFIG_PARAVIRT broke old glibc bootup: it silently turned off the selectability of CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO and thus rendered distro kernels unbootable on old-style VDSO glibc setups. the proper solution is to keep COMPAT_VDSO available - if a hypervisor needs any modification of that concept then we'll judge those changes in full context, once those changes are submitted.

there's a new NMI watchdog related problem: KVM crashes on certain bzImages because ... we enable the NMI watchdog by default (even if the user does not ask for it) , and no other OS on this planet does that so KVM doesnt have emulation for that yet. So KVM injects a #GP, which crashes the Linux guest: general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP Modules linked in: CPU: 0 EIP: 0060:[<c011a8ae>] Not tainted VLI EFLAGS: 00000246 (2.6.20-rc5-rt0 #3) EIP is at setup_apic_nmi_watchdog+0x26d/0x3d3 and no, i did /not/ request an nmi_watchdog on the boot command line! Solution: turn off that darn thing! It's a debug tool, not a 'make life harder' tool!! with this patch the KVM guest boots up just fine. And with this my laptop (Lenovo T60) also stopped its sporadic hard hanging (sometimes in acpi_init(), sometimes later during bootup, sometimes much later during actual use) as well. It hung with both nmi_watchdog=1 and nmi_watchdog=2, so it's generally the fact of NMI injection that is causing problems, not the NMI watchdog variant, nor any particular bootup code.

Clarify the description of the CONFIG_VMI option: describe the reality that VMI is a VMWare-only interface for now. Once that changes and another hypervisor adopts the VMI ABI we can change the text.

CT based mach64 cards were reported to hang on sparc64 boxes when compiled with gcc-4.1.x and later. Looking at this piece of code, it's no surprise. A critical delay was implemented as an empty for() loop, and gcc 4.0.x and previous did not optimize it away, so we did get a delay. But gcc-4.1.x and later can optimize it away, and we get crashes.

This happens because we have the following code in kernel/hrtimer.c: migrate_hrtimers(int cpu) [...] old_base = &per_cpu(hrtimer_bases, cpu); new_base = &get_cpu_var(hrtimer_bases); [...] spin_lock(&new_base->lock); spin_lock(&old_base->lock); Which means the spinlocks are taken in an order which depends on which cpu gets shut down from which other cpu. Therefore lockdep complains that there might be an ABBA deadlock. Since migrate_hrtimers() gets only called on cpu hotplug it's safe to assume that it isn't executed concurrently on a The same problem exists in kernel/timer.c: migrate_timers(). As pointed out by Christian Borntraeger one possible solution to avoid the locking order complaints would be to make sure that the locks are always taken in the same order. E.g. by taking the lock of the cpu with the lower number first. To achieve this we introduce two new spinlock functions double_spin_lock and double_spin_unlock which lock or unlock two locks in a given order.

由 john stultz 提交于
This patch resolves the issue found here: http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7426 The basic summary is: Currently we register most of i386/x86_64 clocksources at module_init time. Then we enable clocksource selection at late_initcall time. This causes some problems for drivers that use gettimeofday for init calibration routines (specifically the es1968 driver in this case), where durring module_init, the only clocksource available is the low-res jiffies clocksource. This may cause slight calibration errors, due to the small sampling time used. It should be noted that drivers that require fine grained time may not function on architectures that do not have better then jiffies resolution timekeeping (there are a few). However, this does not discount the reasonable need for such fine-grained timekeeping at init time. Thus the solution here is to register clocksources earlier (ideally when the hardware is being initialized), and then we enable clocksource selection at fs_initcall (before device_initcall). This patch should probably get some testing time in -mm, since clocksource selection is one of the most important issues for correct timekeeping, and I've only been able to test this on a few of my own boxes.

With raid6 that had to be changed to "conf->raid_disk - conf->max_degraded" or similar. One place was missed. This bug means that if a raid6 reshape were aborted in the middle the recorded position would be wrong.

Use para_fill instead of directly setting the APIC ops to the result of the vmi_get_function call - this allows one to implement a VMI ROM without implementing APIC functions, just using the native APIC functions. While doing this, I realized that there is a lot more cleanup that should have been done. Basically, we should never assume that the ROM implements a specific set of functions, and always allow fallback to the native implementation. This is critical for future compatibility.

And with the clocksource code now firmly in place, we can get rid of code that fixes up the wallclock, since this is done in the common infrastructure.

The time_init_hook in paravirt-ops no longer functions in the correct manner after the integration of the hrtimers code. The problem is that now the call path for time initialization is: time_init : late_time_init = hpet_time_init; late_time_init -> hpet_time_init: setup_pit_timer (BAD) do_time_init --> (via paravirt.h) time_init_hook --> (via arch_hooks.h) time_init_hook (in SUBARCH/setup.c) If this isn't confusing enough, the paravirt case goes through an indirect function pointer in the paravirt-ops table. The problem is, by the time the paravirt hook is called, the pit timer is already enabled. But paravirt guests have their own timer, and don't want to use the PIT. Rather than intensify the struggle for power going on here, just make it all nice and simple and just unconditionally do all timer setup in the late_time_init hook. This also has the advantage of enabling timers in the same place in all code paths, so everyone has the same bugs and we don't have outliers who break other code because they turn on timer too early or too late. So the paravirt-ops time init function is now by default hpet_time_init, which is the time init function used for native hardware. Paravirt guests have the chance to override this when they setup the paravirt-ops table, and should need no change.

Not respecting udelay causes problems with any virtual hardware that is passed through to real hardware. This can be noticed by any device that interacts with the real world in real time - like AP startup, which takes real time. Or keyboard LEDs, which should blink in real-time. Or floppy drives, but only when passed through to a real floppy controller on OSes which can't sufficiently buffer the floppy commands to emulate a zero latency floppy. Or IDE drives, when connecting to a physical CDROM. This was mostly a hack to get the kernel to boot faster, but it introduced a number of misvirtualization bugs, and Alan and Pavel argued pretty strongly against it.

Provide a PT map hook for HIGHPTE kernels to designate where they are mapping page tables. This information is required so the physical address of PTE updates can be determined; otherwise, the mm layer would have to carry the physical address all the way to each PTE modification callsite, which is even more hideous that the macros required to provide the proper hooks. So lets not mess up arch neutral code to achieve this, but keep the horror in an #ifdef HIGHPTE in include/asm-i386/pgtable.h. I had to use macros here because some types are not yet defined in all the include paths for this header. This patch is absolutely required for HIGHPTE kernels to operate properly with VMI.

The custom_sched_clock hook is broken. The result from sched_clock needs to be in nanoseconds, not in CPU cycles. The TSC is insufficient for this purpose, because TSC is poorly defined in a virtual environment, and mostly represents real world time instead of scheduled process time (which can be interrupted without notice when a virtual machine is descheduled). To make the scheduler consistent, we must expose a different nature of time, that is scheduled time. So deprecate this custom_sched_clock hack and turn it into a paravirt-op, as it should have been all along. This allows the tsc.c code which converts cycles to nanoseconds to be shared by all paravirt-ops backends. It is unfortunate to add a new paravirt-op, but this is a very distinct abstraction which is clearly different for all virtual machine implementations, and it gets rid of an ugly indirect function which I ashamedly admit I hacked in to try to get this to work earlier, and then even got in the wrong units.

Critical bugfixes for the VMI-Timer code. 1) Do not setup a one shot alarm if we are keeping the periodic alarm armed. Additionally, since the periodic alarm can be run at a lower rate than HZ, let's fixup the guard to the no-idle-hz mode appropriately. This fixes the bug where the no-idle-hz mode might have a higher interrupt rate than the non-idle case. 2) The interrupt handler can no longer adjust xtime due to nested lock acquisition. Drop this. We don't need to check for wallclock time at every tick, it can be done in userspace instead. 3) Add a bypass to disable noidle operation. This is useful as a last minute workaround, or testing measure. 4) The code to skip the IO_APIC timer testing (no_timer_check) should be conditional on IO_APIC, not SMP, since UP kernels can have this configured in as well.

Currently sm501fb_crtsrc_store() won't allow the routing to be changed via echos from userspace in to the sysfs file. The reason for this is that the strnicmp() for both heads uses a sizeof() for the string length, which ends up being strlen() + 1 (\0 in the normal case, but the echo gives a newline, which is where the issue occurs), this then causes a mismatch and subsequently bails with the -EINVAL. In addition to this, the hardcoded lengths were then used for the store length that was returned, which ended up being erroneous and resulting in a write error. There's also no point in returning anything but the full length since it will -EINVAL out on a mismatch well before then anyways. sizeof("string") is great for making sure you have space in your buffer, but rather less so for string comparisons :-) Signed-off-by: NPaul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org> Acked-by: NBen Dooks <ben-linux@fluff.org> Cc: "Antonino A.

Remove the associated per_cpu_gain variable in sched_domains used only by this code. Also: The reason is that with dynticks enabled, this code breaks without yet further tweaks so dynticks brought on the rapid demise of this code. So either we tweak this code or kill it off entirely.

Most drivers using GPIOs already know they are running on a system that supports the generic GPIO calls, because of other platform dependencies. But the generic GPIO-based LED and input button drivers can't know that. So this patch adds a Kconfig hook, GENERIC_GPIO, to mark the platforms where <asm/gpio.h> will do the right thing. Currently that's a bunch of ARMs, and AVR32; more are on the way. It also fixes a dependency bug for the gpio button input driver; it was wrong to start with, now it covers all platforms with GENERIC_GPIO.

Fix soft lockup with iSeries viocd driver, caused by eventually calling end_that_request_first() with nr_bytes 0. Some versions of hald do an SG_IO ioctl on the viocd device which becomes a request with hard_nr_sectors and hard_cur_sectors set to zero. Passing zero as the number of sectors to end_request() (which calls end_that_request_first()) causes an infinite loop when the bio is being freed. This patch makes sure that the zero is never passed. It only requires some number larger the the request size the terminate the loop. The lockup is triggered by hald, interrogating the device.

The writing on the wall seem to be that the parport stack is orphaned, rather than maintained by four folk ... and having a webpage that says the latest patches are based on a 2.5 kernel.
