      rcu: Make non-RCU_PROVE_LOCKING rcu_read_lock_sched_held() understand boot · 0b1c8727
      Paul E. McKenney 提交于
      Before the scheduler starts, all tasks are non-preemptible by
      definition. So, during that time, rcu_read_lock_sched_held()
      needs to always return "true".  This patch makes that be so
      for RCU_PROVE_LOCKING=n.

      [S390] Define new s390 ELF note sections in elf.h · 73bfa5f2
      Michael Holzheu 提交于
      S390 ELF core dump currently only contains the PSW, the general purpose
      registers, the floating point registers and the access registers stored
      in PRSTATUS/PRFPREG note sections.
      For analyzing s390 kernel problems additional registers are important.
      In order to be able to include these registers to a kernel ELF core dump,
      this patch adds the following five new note sections to elf.h:
      
      * NT_S390_TIMER:   S390 timer register
      * NT_S390_TODCMP:  S390 TOD comparator register
      * NT_S390_TODPREG: S390 TOD programmable register
      * NT_S390_CTRS:    S390 control registers
      * NT_S390_PREFIX:  S390 prefix register
      
      The new note sections have been already defined and accepted in the upstream
      binutils package.

      USB: implement non-tree resume ordering constraints for PCI host controllers · 6d19c009
      Alan Stern 提交于
      This patch (as1331) adds non-tree ordering constraints needed for
      proper resume of PCI USB host controllers from hibernation.  The main
      issue is that non-high-speed devices must not be resumed before the
      high-speed root hub, because it is the ehci_bus_resume() routine which
      takes care of handing the device connection over to the companion
      controller.  If the device resume is attempted before the handover
      then the device won't be found and it will be treated as though it had
      disconnected.
      
      The patch adds a new field to the usb_bus structure; for each
      full/low-speed bus this field will contain a pointer to the companion
      high-speed bus (if one exists).  It is used during normal device
      resume; if the hs_companion pointer isn't NULL then we wait for the
      root-hub device on the hs_companion bus.
      
      A secondary issue is that an EHCI controlller shouldn't be resumed
      before any of its companions.  On some machines I have observed
      handovers failing if the companion controller is reinitialized after
      the handover.  Thus, the EHCI resume routine must wait for the
      companion controllers to be resumed.
      
      The patch also fixes a small bug in usb_hcd_pci_probe(); an error path
      jumps to the wrong label, causing a memory leak.

      PM: Allow device drivers to use dpm_wait() · f8824cee
      Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于
      There are some dependencies between devices (in particular, between
      EHCI USB controllers and their OHCI/UHCI siblings) which are not
      reflected by the structure of the device tree.  With synchronous
      suspend and resume these dependencies are taken into accout
      automatically, because the devices in question are always registered
      in the right order, but to meet these constraints with asynchronous
      suspend and resume the drivers of these devices will need to use
      dpm_wait() in their suspend/resume routines, so introduce a helper
      function allowing them to do that.

      PM: Asynchronous suspend and resume of devices · 5af84b82
      Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于
      Theoretically, the total time of system sleep transitions (suspend
      to RAM, hibernation) can be reduced by running suspend and resume
      callbacks of device drivers in parallel with each other.  However,
      there are dependencies between devices such that we're not allowed
      to suspend the parent of a device before suspending the device
      itself.  Analogously, we're not allowed to resume a device before
      resuming its parent.
      
      The most straightforward way to take these dependencies into accout
      is to start the async threads used for suspending and resuming
      devices at the core level, so that async_schedule() is called for
      each suspend and resume callback supposed to be executed
      asynchronously.
      
      For this purpose, introduce a new device flag, power.async_suspend,
      used to mark the devices whose suspend and resume callbacks are to be
      executed asynchronously (ie. in parallel with the main suspend/resume
      thread and possibly in parallel with each other) and helper function
      device_enable_async_suspend() allowing one to set power.async_suspend
      for given device (power.async_suspend is unset by default for all
      devices).  For each device with the power.async_suspend flag set the
      PM core will use async_schedule() to execute its suspend and resume
      callbacks.
      
      The async threads started for different devices as a result of
      calling async_schedule() are synchronized with each other and with
      the main suspend/resume thread with the help of completions, in the
      following way:
      (1) There is a completion, power.completion, for each device object.
      (2) Each device's completion is reset before calling async_schedule()
          for the device or, in the case of devices with the
          power.async_suspend flags unset, before executing the device's
          suspend and resume callbacks.
      (3) During suspend, right before running the bus type, device type
          and device class suspend callbacks for the device, the PM core
          waits for the completions of all the device's children to be
          completed.
      (4) During resume, right before running the bus type, device type and
          device class resume callbacks for the device, the PM core waits
          for the completion of the device's parent to be completed.
      (5) The PM core completes power.completion for each device right
          after the bus type, device type and device class suspend (or
          resume) callbacks executed for the device have returned.

      tracing: Fix ftrace_event_call alignment for use with gcc 4.5 · 86c38a31
      Jeff Mahoney 提交于
      GCC 4.5 introduces behavior that forces the alignment of structures to
       use the largest possible value. The default value is 32 bytes, so if
       some structures are defined with a 4-byte alignment and others aren't
       declared with an alignment constraint at all - it will align at 32-bytes.
      
       For things like the ftrace events, this results in a non-standard array.
       When initializing the ftrace subsystem, we traverse the _ftrace_events
       section and call the initialization callback for each event. When the
       structures are misaligned, we could be treating another part of the
       structure (or the zeroed out space between them) as a function pointer.
      
       This patch forces the alignment for all the ftrace_event_call structures
       to 4 bytes.
      
       Without this patch, the kernel fails to boot very early when built with
       gcc 4.5.
      
       It's trivial to check the alignment of the members of the array, so it
       might be worthwhile to add something to the build system to do that
       automatically. Unfortunately, that only covers this case. I've asked one
       of the gcc developers about adding a warning when this condition is seen.

      rcu: Accelerate grace period if last non-dynticked CPU · 8bd93a2c
      Paul E. McKenney 提交于
      Currently, rcu_needs_cpu() simply checks whether the current CPU
      has an outstanding RCU callback, which means that the last CPU
      to go into dyntick-idle mode might wait a few ticks for the
      relevant grace periods to complete.  However, if all the other
      CPUs are in dyntick-idle mode, and if this CPU is in a quiescent
      state (which it is for RCU-bh and RCU-sched any time that we are
      considering going into dyntick-idle mode), then the grace period
      is instantly complete.
      
      This patch therefore repeatedly invokes the RCU grace-period
      machinery in order to force any needed grace periods to complete
      quickly.  It does so a limited number of times in order to
      prevent starvation by an RCU callback function that might pass
      itself to call_rcu().
      
      However, if any CPU other than the current one is not in
      dyntick-idle mode, fall back to simply checking (with fix to bug
      noted by Lai Jiangshan).  Also, take advantage of last
      grace-period forcing, the opportunity to do so noted by Steve
      Rostedt.  And apply simplified #ifdef condition suggested by
      Frederic Weisbecker.

      rcu: Introduce lockdep-based checking to RCU read-side primitives · 632ee200
      Paul E. McKenney 提交于
      Inspection is proving insufficient to catch all RCU misuses,
      which is understandable given that rcu_dereference() might be
      protected by any of four different flavors of RCU (RCU, RCU-bh,
      RCU-sched, and SRCU), and might also/instead be protected by any
      of a number of locking primitives. It is therefore time to
      enlist the aid of lockdep.
      
      This set of patches is inspired by earlier work by Peter
      Zijlstra and Thomas Gleixner, and takes the following approach:
      
      o	Set up separate lockdep classes for RCU, RCU-bh, and RCU-sched.
      
      o	Set up separate lockdep classes for each instance of SRCU.
      
      o	Create primitives that check for being in an RCU read-side
      	critical section.  These return exact answers if lockdep is
      	fully enabled, but if unsure, report being in an RCU read-side
      	critical section.  (We want to avoid false positives!)
      	The primitives are:
      
      	For RCU: rcu_read_lock_held(void)
      
      	For RCU-bh: rcu_read_lock_bh_held(void)
      
      	For RCU-sched: rcu_read_lock_sched_held(void)
      
      	For SRCU: srcu_read_lock_held(struct srcu_struct *sp)
      
      o	Add rcu_dereference_check(), which takes a second argument
      	in which one places a boolean expression based on the above
      	primitives and/or lockdep_is_held().
      
      o	A new kernel configuration parameter, CONFIG_PROVE_RCU, enables
      	rcu_dereference_check().  This depends on CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING,
      	and should be quite helpful during the transition period while
      	CONFIG_PROVE_RCU-unaware patches are in flight.
      
      The existing rcu_dereference() primitive does no checking, but
      upcoming patches will change that.
