      powerpc/irq: Fix another case of lazy IRQ state getting out of sync · 7c0482e3
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      So we have another case of paca->irq_happened getting out of
      sync with the HW irq state. This can happen when a perfmon
      interrupt occurs while soft disabled, as it will return to a
      soft disabled but hard enabled context while leaving a stale
      PACA_IRQ_HARD_DIS flag set.
      
      This patch fixes it, and also adds a test for the condition
      of those flags being out of sync in arch_local_irq_restore()
      when CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS is enabled.
      
      This helps catching those gremlins faster (and so far I
      can't seem see any anymore, so that's good news).

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix refcounting of hugepages · de6c0b02
      David Gibson 提交于
      The H_REGISTER_VPA hcall implementation in HV Power KVM needs to pin some
      guest memory pages into host memory so that they can be safely accessed
      from usermode.  It does this used get_user_pages_fast().  When the VPA is
      unregistered, or the VCPUs are cleaned up, these pages are released using
      put_page().
      
      However, the get_user_pages() is invoked on the specific memory are of the
      VPA which could lie within hugepages.  In case the pinned page is huge,
      we explicitly find the head page of the compound page before calling
      put_page() on it.
      
      At least with the latest kernel, this is not correct.  put_page() already
      handles finding the correct head page of a compound, and also deals with
      various counts on the individual tail page which are important for
      transparent huge pages.  We don't support transparent hugepages on Power,
      but even so, bypassing this count maintenance can lead (when the VM ends)
      to a hugepage being released back to the pool with a non-zero mapcount on
      one of the tail pages.  This can then lead to a bad_page() when the page
      is released from the hugepage pool.
      
      This removes the explicit compound_head() call to correct this bug.
