update_vsyscall() did not provide the wall_to_monotoinc offset, so arch specific implementations tend to reference wall_to_monotonic directly. This limits future cleanups in the timekeeping core, so this patch fixes the update_vsyscall interface to provide wall_to_monotonic, allowing wall_to_monotonic to be made static as planned in Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt Signed-off-by: NJohn Stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> LKML-Reference: <1279068988-21864-7-git-send-email-johnstul@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

Due to vtime calling vgettimeofday(), its possible that an application could call time();create("stuff",O_RDRW); only to see the file's creation timestamp to be before the value returned by time. A similar way to reproduce the issue is to compare the vsyscall time() with the syscall time(), and observe ordering issues. The modified test case from Oleg Nesterov below can illustrate this: int main(void) { time_t sec1,sec2; do { sec1 = time(&sec2); sec2 = syscall(__NR_time, NULL); } while (sec1 <= sec2); printf("vtime: %d.000000\n", sec1); printf("time: %d.000000\n", sec2); return 0; } The proper fix is to make vtime use the same time value as current_kernel_time() (which is exported via update_vsyscall) instead of vgettime(). Thanks to Jiri Olsa for bringing up the issue and catching bugs in earlier verisons of this fix.

The PCC cpufreq driver unmaps the mailbox address range if any CPUs fail to initialise, but doesn't do anything to remove the registered CPUs from the cpufreq core resulting in failures further down the line. We're better off simply returning a failure - the cpufreq core will unregister us cleanly if we end up with no successfully registered CPUs. Tidy up the failure path and also add a sanity check to ensure that the firmware gives us a realistic frequency - the core deals badly with that being set to 0.

The pcc specification documents an _OSC method that's incompatible with the one defined as part of the ACPI spec. This shouldn't be a problem as both are supposed to be guarded with a UUID. Unfortunately approximately nobody (including HP, who wrote this spec) properly check the UUID on entry to the _OSC call. Right now this could result in surprising behaviour if the pcc driver performs an _OSC call on a machine that doesn't implement the pcc specification. Check whether the PCCH method exists first in order to reduce this probability.

Commit 2a6b6976 (ACPI: Store NVS state even when entering suspend to RAM) caused the ACPI suspend code save the NVS area during suspend and restore it during resume unconditionally, although it is known that some systems need to use acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs for hibernation to work. To allow the affected systems to avoid saving and restoring the NVS area during suspend to RAM and resume, introduce kernel command line option acpi_sleep=nonvs and make acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs work as its alias temporarily (add acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs to the feature removal file).

In the CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL fast-path for x86 64-bit system calls, we can pass a bad return value and/or error indication for the system call to audit_syscall_exit(). This happens when TIF_NEED_RESCHED was set as the system call returned, so we went out to schedule() and came back to the exit-audit fast-path. The fix is to reload the user return value register from the pt_regs before using it for audit_syscall_exit(). Both the 32-bit kernel's fast path and the 64-bit kernel's 32-bit system call fast paths work slightly differently, so that they always leave the fast path entirely to reschedule and don't return there, so they don't have the analogous bugs.

Commit e534c7c5 ("numa: x86_64: use generic percpu var numa_node_id() implementation") broke numa systems that don't have ram on node0 when MEMORY_HOTPLUG is enabled, because cpu_up() will call cpu_to_node() before per_cpu(numa_node) is setup for APs. When Node0 doesn't have RAM, on x86, cpus already round it to nearest node with RAM in x86_cpu_to_node_map. and per_cpu(numa_node) is not set up until in c_init for APs. When later cpu_up() calling cpu_to_node() will get 0 again, and make it online even there is no RAM on node0. so later all APs can not booted up, and later will have panic.

Found one x2apic system kexec loop test failed when CONFIG_NMI_WATCHDOG=y (old) or CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR=y (current tip) first kernel can kexec second kernel, but second kernel can not kexec third one. it can be duplicated on another system with BIOS preenabled x2apic. First kernel can not kexec second kernel. It turns out, when kernel boot with pre-enabled x2apic, it will not execute disable_local_APIC on shutdown path. when init_apic_mappings() is called in setup_arch, it will skip setting of apic_phys when x2apic_mode is set. ( x2apic_mode is much early check_x2apic()) Then later, disable_local_APIC() will bail out early because !apic_phys. So check !x2apic_mode in x2apic_mode in disable_local_APIC with !apic_phys. another solution could be updating init_apic_mappings() to set apic_phys even for preenabled x2apic system. Actually even for x2apic system, that lapic address is mapped already in early stage. BTW: is there any x2apic preenabled system with apicid of boot cpu > 255?

Before we had a generic breakpoint layer, x86 used to send a sigtrap for any debug event that happened in userspace, except if it was caused by lazy dr7 switches. Currently we only send such signal for single step or breakpoint events. However, there are three other kind of debug exceptions: - debug register access detected: trigger an exception if the next instruction touches the debug registers. We don't use it. - task switch, but we don't use tss. - icebp/int01 trap. This instruction (0xf1) is undocumented and generates an int 1 exception. Unlike single step through TF flag, it doesn't set the single step origin of the exception in dr6. icebp then used to be reported in userspace using trap signals but this have been incidentally broken with the new breakpoint code. Reenable this. Since this is the only debug event that doesn't set anything in dr6, this is all we have to check. This fixes a regression in Wine where World Of Warcraft got broken as it uses this for software protection checks purposes. And probably other apps do.

When I introduced the global variable gsi_end I thought gsi_end on io_apics was one past the end of the gsi range for the io_apic. After it was pointed out the the range on io_apics was inclusive I changed my global variable to match. That was a big mistake. Inclusive semantics without a range start cannot describe the case when no gsi's are allocated. Describing the case where no gsi's are allocated is important in sfi.c and mpparse.c so that we can assign gsi numbers instead of blindly copying the gsi assignments the BIOS has done as we do in the acpi case. To keep from getting the global variable confused with the gsi range end rename it gsi_top.

由 Stephane Eranian 提交于
The transactional API patch between the generic and model-specific code introduced several important bugs with event scheduling, at least on X86. If you had pinned events, e.g., watchdog, and were over-committing the PMU, you would get bogus counts. The bug was showing up on Intel CPU because events would move around more often that on AMD. But the problem also existed on AMD, though harder to expose. The issues were: - group_sched_in() was missing a cancel_txn() in the error path - cpuc->n_added was not properly maintained, leading to missing actions in hw_perf_enable(), i.e., n_running being 0. You cannot update n_added until you know the transaction has succeeded. In case of failed transaction n_added was not adjusted back. - in case of failed transactions, event_sched_out() was called and eventually invoked x86_disable_event() to touch the HW reg. But with transactions, on X86, event_sched_in() does not touch HW registers, it simply collects events into a list. Thus, you could end up calling x86_disable_event() on a counter which did not correspond to the current event when idx != -1. The patch modifies the generic and X86 code to avoid all those problems. First, we keep track of the number of events added last. In case the transaction fails, we substract them from n_added. This approach is necessary (as opposed to delaying updates to n_added) because not all event updates use the transaction API, e.g., single events. Second, we encapsulate the event_sched_in() and event_sched_out() in group_sched_in() inside the transaction. That makes the operations symmetrical and you can also detect that you are inside a transaction and skip the HW reg access by checking cpuc->group_flag. With this patch, you can now overcommit the PMU even with pinned system-wide events present and still get valid counts.

By the previous modification, the cpu notifier can return encapsulate errno value. This converts the cpu notifiers for msr, cpuid, and therm_throt.

Add a spin_unlock missing on the error path. The locks and unlocks are balanced in other functions, so it seems that the same should be the case here. The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression E1; @@ * spin_lock(E1,...); <+... when != E1 if (...) { ... when != E1 * return ...; } ...+> * spin_unlock(E1,...); // </smpl> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NJulia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: NJoerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com>

Fix the following warning: "WARNING: arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o(.exit.text+0x72): Section mismatch in reference from the function powernowk8_exit() to the variable .cpuinit.data:cpb_nb The function __exit powernowk8_exit() references a variable __cpuinitdata cpb_nb. This is often seen when error handling in the exit function uses functionality in the init path. The fix is often to remove the __cpuinitdata annotation of cpb_nb so it may be used outside an init section." Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Reported-by: NH.

This adds: alias: devname:<name> to some common kernel modules, which will allow the on-demand loading of the kernel module when the device node is accessed. Ideally all these modules would be compiled-in, but distros seems too much in love with their modularization that we need to cover the common cases with this new facility. It will allow us to remove a bunch of pretty useless init scripts and modprobes from init scripts. The static device node aliases will be carried in the module itself. The program depmod will extract this information to a file in the module directory: $ cat /lib/modules/2.6.34-00650-g537b60d1-dirty/modules.devname # Device nodes to trigger on-demand module loading. microcode cpu/microcode c10:184 fuse fuse c10:229 ppp_generic ppp c108:0 tun net/tun c10:200 dm_mod mapper/control c10:235 Udev will pick up the depmod created file on startup and create all the static device nodes which the kernel modules specify, so that these modules get automatically loaded when the device node is accessed: $ /sbin/udevd --debug ... static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/cpu/microcode' c10:184 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/fuse' c10:229 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/ppp' c108:0 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/net/tun' c10:200 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/mapper/control' c10:235 udev_rules_apply_static_dev_perms: chmod '/dev/net/tun' 0666 udev_rules_apply_static_dev_perms: chmod '/dev/fuse' 0666 A few device nodes are switched to statically allocated numbers, to allow the static nodes to work. This might also useful for systems which still run a plain static /dev, which is completely unsafe to use with any dynamic minor numbers. Note: The devname aliases must be limited to the *common* and *single*instance* device nodes, like the misc devices, and never be used for conceptually limited systems like the loop devices, which should rather get fixed properly and get a control node for losetup to talk to, instead of creating a random number of device nodes in advance, regardless if they are ever used. This facility is to hide the mess distros are creating with too modualized kernels, and just to hide that these modules are not compiled-in, and not to paper-over broken concepts.

Patch b7e2ecef (perf, trace: Optimize tracepoints by removing IRQ-disable from perf/tracepoint interaction) made the unfortunate mistake of assuming the world is x86 only, correct this. The problem was that perf_fetch_caller_regs() did local_save_flags() into regs->flags, and I re-used that to remove another local_save_flags(), forgetting !x86 doesn't have regs->flags. Do the reverse, remove the local_save_flags() from perf_fetch_caller_regs() and let the ftrace site do the local_save_flags() instead.

The low-memory corruption checker triggers during suspend/resume, so we need to reserve the low 64k. Don't be fooled that the BIOS identifies itself as "Dell Inc.", it's still Phoenix BIOS. [ hpa: I think we blacklist almost every BIOS in existence. We should either change this to a whitelist or just make it unconditional. ] Signed-off-by: NGabor Gombas <gombasg@digikabel.hu> LKML-Reference: <201005241913.o4OJDIMM010877@imap1.linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NH.
