From: Dave Johnson <djohnson+linux-kernel@sw.starentnetworks.com> sendmsg()/recvmsg() syscalls from o32/n32 apps to a 64bit kernel will cause a kernel memory leak if iov_len > UIO_FASTIOV for each syscall! This is because both sys_sendmsg() and verify_compat_iovec() kmalloc a new iovec structure. Only the one from sys_sendmsg() is free'ed. I wrote a simple test program to confirm this after identifying the problem: http://davej.org/programs/testsendmsg.c Note that the below fix will break solaris_sendmsg()/solaris_recvmsg() as it also calls verify_compat_iovec() but expects it to malloc internally.

Some PCI devices (e.g. 3c905B, 3c556B) lose all configuration (including BARs) when transitioning from D3hot->D0. This leaves such a device in an inaccessible state. The patch below causes the BARs to be restored when enabling such a device, so that its driver will be able to access it. The patch also adds pci_restore_bars as a new global symbol, and adds a correpsonding EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL for that. Some firmware (e.g. Thinkpad T21) leaves devices in D3hot after a (re)boot. Most drivers call pci_enable_device very early, so devices left in D3hot that lose configuration during the D3hot->D0 transition will be inaccessible to their drivers. Drivers could be modified to account for this, but it would be difficult to know which drivers need modification. This is especially true since often many devices are covered by the same driver. It likely would be necessary to replicate code across dozens of drivers. The patch below should trigger only when transitioning from D3hot->D0 (or at boot), and only for devices that have the "no soft reset" bit cleared in the PM control register. I believe it is safe to include this patch as part of the PCI infrastructure. The cleanest implementation of pci_restore_bars was to call pci_update_resource. Unfortunately, that does not currently exist for the sparc64 architecture. The patch below includes a null implemenation of pci_update_resource for sparc64. Some have expressed interest in making general use of the the pci_restore_bars function, so that has been exported to GPL licensed modules. Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

Fix that to use a fixed (256 - 1) mask as that is the limit imposed by thread_info->cpu which is a "u8". Finally, add a compile time check that NR_CPUS is not greater than 256.

This was the main impetus behind adding the PCI IRQ shim. In order to properly order DMA writes wrt. interrupts, you have to write to a PCI controller register, then poll for that bit clearing. There is one bit for each interrupt source, and setting this register bit tells Tomatillo to drain all pending DMA from that device. Furthermore, Tomatillo's with revision less than 4 require us to do a block store due to some memory transaction ordering issues it has on JBUS. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This allows a PCI controller to shim into IRQ delivery so that DMA queues can be drained, if necessary. If some bus specific code needs to run before an IRQ handler is invoked, the bus driver simply needs to setup the function pointer in bucket->irq_info->pre_handler and the two args bucket->irq_info->pre_handler_arg[12]. The Schizo PCI driver is converted over to use a pre-handler for the DMA write-sync processing it needs when a device is behind a PCI->PCI bus deeper than the top-level APB bridges. While we're here, clean up all of the action allocation and handling. Now, we allocate the irqaction as part of the bucket->irq_info area. There is an array of 4 irqaction (for PCI irq sharing) and a bitmask saying which entries are active. The bucket->irq_info is allocated at build_irq() time, not at request_irq() time. This simplifies request_irq() and free_irq() tremendously. The SMP dynamic IRQ retargetting code got removed in this change too. It was disabled for a few months now, and we can resurrect it in the future if we want. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The following patch adds some ioctls to include/linux/compat_ioctl.h to allow using ppdev from the 32 bit user space on sparc64. This patch also adds the PPDEV option in the sparc64 menu, near Parallel printer support in the 'General machine setup' submenu. All those ioctls seem to be compatible, since (correct me if I'm wrong) they dont use the 'long' type. See include/linux/ppdev.h. The application I used to test the new ioctls only used the following: PPEXCL PPCLAIM PPNEGOT PPGETMODES PPRCONTROL PPWCONTROL PPDATADIR PPWDATA PPRDATA But I beleive that the other ioctls will work fine.

In particular, avoid membar instructions in the delay slot of a jmpl instruction. UltraSPARC-I, II, IIi, and IIe have a bug, documented in the UltraSPARC-IIi User's Manual, Appendix K, Erratum 51 The long and short of it is that if the IMU unit misses on a branch or jmpl, and there is a store buffer synchronizing membar in the delay slot, the chip can stop fetching instructions. If interrupts are enabled or some other trap is enabled, the chip will unwedge itself, but performance will suffer. We already had a workaround for this bug in a few spots, but it's better to have the entire tree sanitized for this rule. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The architecture independent code of the current kprobes implementation is arming and disarming kprobes at registration time. The problem is that the code is assuming that arming and disarming is a just done by a simple write of some magic value to an address. This is problematic for ia64 where our instructions look more like structures, and we can not insert break points by just doing something like: *p->addr = BREAKPOINT_INSTRUCTION; The following patch to 2.6.12-rc4-mm2 adds two new architecture dependent functions: * void arch_arm_kprobe(struct kprobe *p) * void arch_disarm_kprobe(struct kprobe *p) and then adds the new functions for each of the architectures that already implement kprobes (spar64/ppc64/i386/x86_64). I thought arch_[dis]arm_kprobe was the most descriptive of what was really happening, but each of the architectures already had a disarm_kprobe() function that was really a "disarm and do some other clean-up items as needed when you stumble across a recursive kprobe." So... I took the liberty of changing the code that was calling disarm_kprobe() to call arch_disarm_kprobe(), and then do the cleanup in the block of code dealing with the recursive kprobe case. So far this patch as been tested on i386, x86_64, and ppc64, but still needs to be tested in sparc64.

Ingo recently introduced a great speedup for allocating new mmaps using the free_area_cache pointer which boosts the specweb SSL benchmark by 4-5% and causes huge performance increases in thread creation. The downside of this patch is that it does lead to fragmentation in the mmap-ed areas (visible via /proc/self/maps), such that some applications that work fine under 2.4 kernels quickly run out of memory on any 2.6 kernel. The problem is twofold: 1) the free_area_cache is used to continue a search for memory where the last search ended. Before the change new areas were always searched from the base address on. So now new small areas are cluttering holes of all sizes throughout the whole mmap-able region whereas before small holes tended to close holes near the base leaving holes far from the base large and available for larger requests. 2) the free_area_cache also is set to the location of the last munmap-ed area so in scenarios where we allocate e.g. five regions of 1K each, then free regions 4 2 3 in this order the next request for 1K will be placed in the position of the old region 3, whereas before we appended it to the still active region 1, placing it at the location of the old region 2. Before we had 1 free region of 2K, now we only get two free regions of 1K -> fragmentation. The patch addresses thes issues by introducing yet another cache descriptor cached_hole_size that contains the largest known hole size below the current free_area_cache. If a new request comes in the size is compared against the cached_hole_size and if the request can be filled with a hole below free_area_cache the search is started from the base instead. The results look promising: Whereas 2.6.12-rc4 fragments quickly and my (earlier posted) leakme.c test program terminates after 50000+ iterations with 96 distinct and fragmented maps in /proc/self/maps it performs nicely (as expected) with thread creation, Ingo's test_str02 with 20000 threads requires 0.7s system time. Taking out Ingo's patch (un-patch available per request) by basically deleting all mentions of free_area_cache from the kernel and starting the search for new memory always at the respective bases we observe: leakme terminates successfully with 11 distinctive hardly fragmented areas in /proc/self/maps but thread creating is gringdingly slow: 30+s(!) system time for Ingo's test_str02 with 20000 threads. Now - drumroll ;-) the appended patch works fine with leakme: it ends with only 7 distinct areas in /proc/self/maps and also thread creation seems sufficiently fast with 0.71s for 20000 threads.

A lot of the code in arch/*/mm/hugetlbpage.c is quite similar. This patch attempts to consolidate a lot of the code across the arch's, putting the combined version in mm/hugetlb.c. There are a couple of uglyish hacks in order to covert all the hugepage archs, but the result is a very large reduction in the total amount of code. It also means things like hugepage lazy allocation could be implemented in one place, instead of six. Tested, at least a little, on ppc64, i386 and x86_64. Notes: - this patch changes the meaning of set_huge_pte() to be more analagous to set_pte() - does SH4 need s special huge_ptep_get_and_clear()??

This patch implements a number of smp_processor_id() cleanup ideas that Arjan van de Ven and I came up with. The previous __smp_processor_id/_smp_processor_id/smp_processor_id API spaghetti was hard to follow both on the implementational and on the usage side. Some of the complexity arose from picking wrong names, some of the complexity comes from the fact that not all architectures defined __smp_processor_id. In the new code, there are two externally visible symbols: - smp_processor_id(): debug variant. - raw_smp_processor_id(): nondebug variant. Replaces all existing uses of _smp_processor_id() and __smp_processor_id(). Defined by every SMP architecture in include/asm-*/smp.h. There is one new internal symbol, dependent on DEBUG_PREEMPT: - debug_smp_processor_id(): internal debug variant, mapped to smp_processor_id(). Also, i moved debug_smp_processor_id() from lib/kernel_lock.c into a new lib/smp_processor_id.c file. All related comments got updated and/or clarified. I have build/boot tested the following 8 .config combinations on x86: {SMP,UP} x {PREEMPT,!PREEMPT} x {DEBUG_PREEMPT,!DEBUG_PREEMPT} I have also build/boot tested x64 on UP/PREEMPT/DEBUG_PREEMPT.
