      [POWERPC] spufs: fix scheduler starvation by idle contexts · 4ef11014
      由 Jeremy Kerr 提交于 
      2.6.25 has a regression where we can starve the scheduler by creating
(N_SPES+1) contexts, then running them one at a time.

The final context will never be run, as the other contexts are loaded on
the SPEs, none of which are repoted as free (ie, spu->alloc_state !=
SPU_FREE), so spu_get_idle() doesn't give us a spu to run on. Because
all of the contexts are stopped, none are descheduled by the scheduler
tick, as spusched_tick returns if spu_stopped(ctx).

This change replaces the spu_stopped() check with checking for SCHED_IDLE
in ctx->policy. We set a context's policy to SCHED_IDLE when we're not
in spu_run(). We also favour SCHED_IDLE contexts when looking for contexts
to unbind, but leave their timeslice intact for later resumption.

This patch fixes the following test in the spufs-testsuite:

      Linux Kernel Markers: support multiple probes · fb40bd78
      由 Mathieu Desnoyers 提交于 
      RCU style multiple probes support for the Linux Kernel Markers.  Common case
(one probe) is still fast and does not require dynamic allocation or a
supplementary pointer dereference on the fast path.

- Move preempt disable from the marker site to the callback.

Since we now have an internal callback, move the preempt disable/enable to the
callback instead of the marker site.

Since the callback change is done asynchronously (passing from a handler that
supports arguments to a handler that does not setup the arguments is no
arguments are passed), we can safely update it even if it is outside the
preempt disable section.

- Move probe arm to probe connection. Now, a connected probe is automatically
  armed.

Remove MARK_MAX_FORMAT_LEN, unused.

This patch modifies the Linux Kernel Markers API : it removes the probe
"arm/disarm" and changes the probe function prototype : it now expects a
va_list * instead of a "...".

If we want to have more than one probe connected to a marker at a given
time (LTTng, or blktrace, ssytemtap) then we need this patch. Without it,
connecting a second probe handler to a marker will fail.

It allow us, for instance, to do interesting combinations :

Do standard tracing with LTTng and, eventually, to compute statistics
with SystemTAP, or to have a special trigger on an event that would call
a systemtap script which would stop flight recorder tracing.

      [POWERPC] spufs: Fix context destroy vs /spu readdir race · c443acab
      由 Jeremy Kerr 提交于 
      We can currently cause an oops by repeatedly creating and destroying
contexts, while doing getdents() calls on the "/spu" directory.

This is due to the context's top-level dentry remaining hashed while
the context is being destroyed.

Fix this by unhashing the context's dentry with the
dentry->d_inode->i_mutex held. This way, we'll hit the check for
d_unhashed in dentry_readdir, and won't be included in the
list of subdirs for /spu.

      [POWERPC] Use 1TB segments · 1189be65
      由 Paul Mackerras 提交于 
      This makes the kernel use 1TB segments for all kernel mappings and for
user addresses of 1TB and above, on machines which support them
(currently POWER5+, POWER6 and PA6T).

We detect that the machine supports 1TB segments by looking at the
ibm,processor-segment-sizes property in the device tree.

We don't currently use 1TB segments for user addresses < 1T, since
that would effectively prevent 32-bit processes from using huge pages
unless we also had a way to revert to using 256MB segments.  That
would be possible but would involve extra complications (such as
keeping track of which segment size was used when HPTEs were inserted)
and is not addressed here.

Parts of this patch were originally written by Ben Herrenschmidt.
