      Fast TSC calibration: calculate proper frequency error bounds · 9e8912e0
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      In order for ntpd to correctly synchronize the clocks, the frequency of
      the system clock must not be off by more than 500 ppm (or, put another
      way, 1:2000), or ntpd will end up giving up on trying to synchronize
      properly, and ends up reseting the clock in jumps instead.
      
      The fast TSC PIT calibration sometimes failed this test - it was
      assuming that the PIT reads always took about one microsecond each (2us
      for the two reads to get a 16-bit timer), and that calibrating TSC to
      the PIT over 15ms should thus be sufficient to get much closer than
      500ppm (max 2us error on both sides giving 4us over 15ms: a 270 ppm
      error value).
      
      However, that assumption does not always hold: apparently some hardware
      is either very much slower at reading the PIT registers, or there was
      other noise causing at least one machine to get 700+ ppm errors.
      
      So instead of using a fixed 15ms timing loop, this changes the fast PIT
      calibration to read the TSC delta over the individual PIT timer reads,
      and use the result to calculate the error bars on the PIT read timing
      properly.  We then successfully calibrate the TSC only if the maximum
      error bars fall below 500ppm.
      
      In the process, we also relax the timing to allow up to 25ms for the
      calibration, although it can happen much faster depending on hardware.

      Fix potential fast PIT TSC calibration startup glitch · a6a80e1d
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      During bootup, when we reprogram the PIT (programmable interval timer)
      to start counting down from 0xffff in order to use it for the fast TSC
      calibration, we should also make sure to delay a bit afterwards to allow
      the PIT hardware to actually start counting with the new value.
      
      That will happens at the next CLK pulse (1.193182 MHz), so the easiest
      way to do that is to just wait at least one microsecond after
      programming the new PIT counter value.  We do that by just reading the
      counter value back once - which will take about 2us on PC hardware.

      tracing: stop comm recording on tracing off · 6adaad14
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      Impact: fix for losing comms in trace
      
      The command lines of tasks are cached at sched switch to not need
      to record them at every trace point.  Disabling the tracing on stops
      the recording of traces, but does not stop the caching of command lines.
      When the tracing is off the cache may overflow and cause the tracing
      to show incorrect tasks matching the PIDs.
      
      This patch disables prevents updates to the comm cache when the ring buffer
      is off.

      tracing: protect reader of cmdline output · 4ca53085
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      Impact: fix to one cause of incorrect comm outputs in trace
      
      The spinlock only protected the creation of a comm <=> pid pair.
      But it was possible that a reader could look up a pid, and get the
      wrong comm because it had no locking.
      
      This also required changing trace_find_cmdline to copy the comm cache
      and not just send back a pointer to it.

      The patch is right except a mistake on the check for the FTRACE_FL_CONVERTED
      flag. The code patching is aborted in case of successfully nopped sites.
      What we want is the opposite: ignore the callsites that haven't been nopped.

      When a table is being replaced, it waits for I/O to complete
      before destroying the mempool, but the endio function doesn't
      call mempool_free() until after completing the bio.
      
      Fix it by swapping the order of those two operations.
      
      The same problem occurs in dm.c with md referenced after dec_pending.

      dm crypt: fix kcryptd_async_done parameter · b2174eeb
      Huang Ying 提交于
      In the async encryption-complete function (kcryptd_async_done), the
      crypto_async_request passed in may be different from the one passed to
      crypto_ablkcipher_encrypt/decrypt.  Only crypto_async_request->data is
      guaranteed to be same as the one passed in.  The current
      kcryptd_async_done uses the passed-in crypto_async_request directly
      which may cause the AES-NI-based AES algorithm implementation to panic.
      
      This patch fixes this bug by only using crypto_async_request->data,
      which points to dm_crypt_request, the crypto_async_request passed in.
      The original data (convert_context) is gotten from dm_crypt_request.

      When renaming a mapped device validate the length of the new name.
      
      The rename ioctl accepted any correctly-terminated string enclosed
      within the data passed from userspace.  The other ioctls enforce a
      size limit of DM_NAME_LEN.  If the name is changed and becomes longer
      than that, the device can no longer be addressed by name.

      terminating zero).
