      provide rtc_cmos platform device · 1da2e3d6
      Stas Sergeev 提交于
      Recently (around 2.6.25) I've noticed that RTC no longer works for me.  It
      turned out this is because I use pnpacpi=off kernel option to work around
      the parport_pc bugs.  I always did so, but RTC used to work fine in the
      past, and now it have regressed.
      
      The patch fixes the problem by creating the platform device for the RTC
      when PNP is disabled.  This may also help running the PNP-enabled kernel
      on an older PCs.

      Yeah, this is extremely likely to be the source of the warning.
      
      The warning should be harmless, however.

      It would be interesting to see where the int3 comes from.  Too bad,
      lockdep doesn't provide the register dump. The stacktrace also doesn't
      go further than the int3(), I wonder if this int3 came from userspace?
      The ltrace readme says "software breakpoints, like gdb", so I guess
      this is the case. Yep, seems like it.
      
      This looks relevant:

      I'm attaching a similarly-looking patch for this case (DO_VM86_ERROR),
      though I suspect it might be missing for the other cases
      (DO_ERROR/DO_ERROR_INFO) as well.

      Joy - I so love entry.S

      syscall_exit_work
        resume_userspace
          DISABLE_INTERRUPTS
          (no TRACE_IRQS_OFF)

                        refrigerator()
                          task_lock() -> check_flags() -> BANG
      
      The normal path is:
      
      syscall_exit_work
        resume_userspace
          DISABLE_INTERRUPTS
          restore_all
            TRACE_IRQS_IRET

      x86: fix endless page faults in mount_block_root for Linux 2.6 · b29c701d
      Henry Nestler 提交于
      Page faults in kernel address space between PAGE_OFFSET up to
      VMALLOC_START should not try to map as vmalloc.
      
      Fix rarely endless page faults inside mount_block_root for root
      filesystem at boot time.
      
      All 32bit kernels up to 2.6.25 can fail into this hole.
      I can not present this under native linux kernel. I see, that the 64bit
      has fixed the problem. I copied the same lines into 32bit part.
      
      Recorded debugs are from coLinux kernel 2.6.22.18 (virtualisation):
      http://www.henrynestler.com/colinux/testing/pfn-check-0.7.3/20080410-antinx/bug16-recursive-page-fault-endless.txt
      The physicaly memory was trimmed down to 192MB to better catch the bug.
      More memory gets the bug more rarely.
      
      Details, how every x86 32bit system can fail:
      
      Start from "mount_block_root",
      http://lxr.linux.no/linux/init/do_mounts.c#L297
      There the variable "fs_names" got one memory page with 4096 bytes.
      Variable "p" walks through the existing file system types. The first
      string is no problem.
      But, with the second loop in mount_block_root the offset of "p" is not
      at beginning of page, the offset is for example +9, if "reiserfs" is the
      first in list.
      Than calls do_mount_root, and lands in sys_mount.
      Remember: Variable "type_page" contains now "fs_type+9" and not contains
      a full page.
      The sys_mount copies 4096 bytes with function "exact_copy_from_user()":
      http://lxr.linux.no/linux/fs/namespace.c#L1540
      
      Mostly exist pages after the buffer "fs_names+4096+9" and the page fault
      handler was not called. No problem.
      
      In the case, if the page after "fs_names+4096" is not mapped, the page
      fault handler was called from http://lxr.linux.no/linux/fs/namespace.c#L1320
      
      The do_page_fault gots an address 0xc03b4000.
      It's kernel address, address >= TASK_SIZE, but not from vmalloc! It's
      from "__getname()" alias "kmem_cache_alloc".
      The "error_code" is 0. "vmalloc_fault" will be call:
      http://lxr.linux.no/linux/arch/i386/mm/fault.c#L332
      
      "vmalloc_fault" tryed to find the physical page for a non existing
      virtual memory area. The macro "pte_present" in vmalloc_fault()
      got a next page fault for 0xc0000ed0 at:
      http://lxr.linux.no/linux/arch/i386/mm/fault.c#L282
      
      No PTE exist for such virtual address. The page fault handler was trying
      to sync the physical page for the PTE lockup.
      
      This called vmalloc_fault() again for address 0xc000000, and that also
      was not existing. The endless began...
      
      In normal case the cpu would still loop with disabled interrrupts. Under
      coLinux this was catched by a stack overflow inside printk debugs.

      x86, pci-dma.c: don't always add __GFP_NORETRY to gfp · b7f09ae5
      Miquel van Smoorenburg 提交于
      Currently arch/x86/kernel/pci-dma.c always adds __GFP_NORETRY
      to the allocation flags, because it wants to be reasonably
      sure not to deadlock when calling alloc_pages().
      
      But really that should only be done in two cases:
      - when allocating memory in the lower 16 MB DMA zone.
        If there's no free memory there, waiting or OOM killing is of no use
      - when optimistically trying an allocation in the DMA32 zone
        when dma_mask < DMA_32BIT_MASK hoping that the allocation
        happens to fall within the limits of the dma_mask
      
      Also blindly adding __GFP_NORETRY to the the gfp variable might
      not be a good idea since we then also use it when calling
      dma_ops->alloc_coherent(). Clearing it might also not be a
      good idea, dma_alloc_coherent()'s caller might have set it
      on purpose. The gfp variable should not be clobbered.

      PCI/x86: fix up PCI stuff so that PCI_GOANY supports OLPC · 2bdd1b03
      Andres Salomon 提交于
      Previously, one would have to specifically choose CONFIG_OLPC and
      CONFIG_PCI_GOOLPC in order to enable PCI_OLPC.  That doesn't really work
      for distro kernels, so this patch allows one to choose CONFIG_OLPC and
      CONFIG_PCI_GOANY in order to build in OLPC support in a generic kernel (as
      requested by Robert Millan).
      
      This also moves GOOLPC before GOANY in the menuconfig list.
      
      Finally, make pci_access_init return early if we detect OLPC hardware.
      There's no need to continue probing stuff, and pci_pcbios_init
      specifically trashes our settings (we didn't run into that before because
      PCI_GOANY wasn't supported).

      x86, fpu: fix CONFIG_PREEMPT=y corruption of application's FPU stack · 870568b3
      Suresh Siddha 提交于
      Jürgen Mell reported an FPU state corruption bug under CONFIG_PREEMPT,
      and bisected it to commit v2.6.19-1363-gacc20761, "i386: add sleazy FPU
      optimization".
      
      Add tsk_used_math() checks to prevent calling math_state_restore()
      which can sleep in the case of !tsk_used_math(). This prevents
      making a blocking call in __switch_to().
      
      Apparently "fpu_counter > 5" check is not enough, as in some signal handling
      and fork/exec scenarios, fpu_counter > 5 and !tsk_used_math() is possible.
      
      It's a side effect though. This is the failing scenario:
      
      process 'A' in save_i387_ia32() just after clear_used_math()
      
      Got an interrupt and pre-empted out.
      
      At the next context switch to process 'A' again, kernel tries to restore
      the math state proactively and sees a fpu_counter > 0 and !tsk_used_math()
      
      This results in init_fpu() during the __switch_to()'s math_state_restore()
      
      And resulting in fpu corruption which will be saved/restored
      (save_i387_fxsave and restore_i387_fxsave) during the remaining
      part of the signal handling after the context switch.

      x86: fix Xorg crash with xf86MapVidMem error · 282c454c
      Venki Pallipadi 提交于
      Clarify the usage of mtrr_lookup() in PAT code, and to make PAT code
      resilient to mtrr lookup problems.
      
      Specifically, pat_x_mtrr_type() is restructured to highlight, under what
      conditions we look for mtrr hint. pat_x_mtrr_type() uses a default type
      when there are any errors in mtrr lookup (still maintaining the pat
      consistency). And, reserve_memtype() highlights its usage ot mtrr_lookup
      for request type of '-1' and also defaults in a sane way on any mtrr
      lookup failure.
      
      pat.c looks at mtrr type of a range to get a hint on what mapping type
      to request when user/API: (1) hasn't specified any type (/dev/mem
      mapping) and we do not want to take performance hit by always mapping
      UC_MINUS. This will be the case for /dev/mem mappings used to map BIOS
      area or ACPI region which are WB'able. In this case, as long as MTRR is
      not WB, PAT will request UC_MINUS for such mappings.
      
      (2) user/API requests WB mapping while in reality MTRR may have UC or
      WC. In this case, PAT can map as WB (without checking MTRR) and still
      effective type will be UC or WC. But, a subsequent request to map same
      region as UC or WC may fail, as the region will get trackked as WB in
      PAT list. Looking at MTRR hint helps us to track based on effective type
      rather than what user requested. Again, here mtrr_lookup is only used as
      hint and we fallback to WB mapping (as requested by user) as default.
      
      In both cases, after using the mtrr hint, we still go through the
      memtype list to make sure there are no inconsistencies among multiple
      users.

      x86: enable preemption in delay · 5c1ea082
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      The RT team has been searching for a nasty latency. This latency shows
      up out of the blue and has been seen to be as big as 5ms!
      
      Using ftrace I found the cause of the latency.
      
         pcscd-2995  3dNh1 52360300us : irq_exit (smp_apic_timer_interrupt)
         pcscd-2995  3dN.2 52360301us : idle_cpu (irq_exit)
         pcscd-2995  3dN.2 52360301us : rcu_irq_exit (irq_exit)
         pcscd-2995  3dN.1 52360771us : smp_apic_timer_interrupt (apic_timer_interrupt
      )
         pcscd-2995  3dN.1 52360771us : exit_idle (smp_apic_timer_interrupt)
      
      Here's an example of a 400 us latency. pcscd took a timer interrupt and
      returned with "need resched" enabled, but did not reschedule until after
      the next interrupt came in at 52360771us 400us later!
      
      At first I thought we somehow missed a preemption check in entry.S. But
      I also noticed that this always seemed to happen during a __delay call.
      
         pcscd-2995  3dN.2 52360836us : rcu_irq_exit (irq_exit)
         pcscd-2995  3.N.. 52361265us : preempt_schedule (__delay)
      
      Looking at the x86 delay, I found my problem.
      
      In git commit 35d5d08a, Andrew Morton
      placed preempt_disable around the entire delay due to TSC's not working
      nicely on SMP.  Unfortunately for those that care about latencies this
      is devastating! Especially when we have callers to mdelay(8).
      
      Here I enable preemption during the loop and account for anytime the task
      migrates to a new CPU. The delay asked for may be extended a bit by
      the migration, but delay only guarantees that it will delay for that minimum
      time. Delaying longer should not be an issue.
      
      [
        Thanks to Thomas Gleixner for spotting that cpu wasn't updated,
          and to place the rep_nop between preempt_enabled/disable.
