My recent hack to allocate the hash table under 1GB on cell was poorly tested, *cough*. It turns out on blades with large amounts of memory we fail to allocate the hash table at all. This is because RTAS has been instantiated just below 768MB, and 0-x MB are used by the kernel, leaving no areas that are both large enough and also naturally-aligned. For the cell IOMMU hack the page tables must be under 2GB, so use that as the limit instead. This has been tested on real hardware and boots happily.

A bogus test for unassigned resources that came from our 32-bit PCI code ended up being "merged" by my previous patch series, breaking some 64-bit setups where devices have legal resources ending at 0xffffffff. This fixes it by completely changing the test. We now test for res->start == 0, as the generic code expects, and we also only do so on platforms that don't have the PPC_PCI_PROBE_ONLY flag set, as there are cases of pSeries and iSeries where it could be a valid value and those can't reassign devices.

The pattern substitution rules were failing when used with zImage-dtb targets. If zImage-dtb.initrd was selected, the pattern substitution would generate "zImage.initrd-dtb" instead of "zImage-dtb.initrd" which caused the build to fail. This renames zImage-dtb to dtbImage to avoid the problem entirely. By not using the zImage prefix then is no potential for namespace collisions.

Some drivers (such as V4L2) have code that causes gcc to generate calls to __ucmpdi2 when compiling for 32-bit powerpc, which results in either a link-time error or a module that can't be loaded, as we don't currently have a __ucmpdi2.

quicklists cause a serious memory leak on 32-bit x86, as documented at: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9991 the reason is that the quicklist pool is a special-purpose cache that grows out of proportion. It is not accounted for anywhere and users have no way to even realize that it's the quicklists that are causing RAM usage spikes. It was supposed to be a relatively small pool, but as demonstrated by KOSAKI Motohiro, they can grow as large as: Quicklists: 1194304 kB given how much trouble this code has caused historically, and given that Andrew objected to its introduction on x86 (years ago), the best option at this point is to remove them.

The code to restart syscalls after signals depends on checking for a negative orig_ax, and for particular negative -ERESTART* values in ax. These fields are 64 bits and for a 32-bit task they get zero-extended. The syscall restart behavior is lost, a regression from a native 32-bit kernel and from 64-bit tasks' behavior. This patch fixes the problem by doing sign-extension where it matters. For orig_ax, the only time the value should be -1 but winds up as 0x0ffffffff is via a 32-bit ptrace call. So the patch changes ptrace to sign-extend the 32-bit orig_eax value when it's stored; it doesn't change the checks on orig_ax, though it uses the new current_syscall() inline to better document the subtle importance of the used of signedness there. The ax value is stored a lot of ways and it seems hard to get them all sign-extended at their origins. So for that, we use the current_syscall_ret() to sign-extend it only for 32-bit tasks at the time of the -ERESTART* comparisons.

At present, we can hit the BUG_ON in __spu_update_sched_info by reading the regs file of a context between two calls to spu_run. The spu_release_saved called by spufs_regs_read() is resulting in the (now non-runnable) context being placed back on the run queue, so the next call to spu_run ends up in the bug condition. This change uses the SPU_SCHED_SPU_RUN flag to only reschedule a context if it's still in spu_run(). Signed-off-by: NJeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org>

I figured out another ACPI related regression today. randconfig testing triggered an early boot-time hang on a laptop of mine (32-bit x86, config attached) - the screen was scrolling ACPI AML exceptions [with no serial port and no early debugging available]. v2.6.24 works fine on that laptop with the same .config, so after a few hours of bisection (had to restart it 3 times - other regressions interacted), it honed in on this commit: | 10270d48 is first bad commit | | Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@woody.linux-foundation.org> | Date: Wed Feb 13 09:56:14 2008 -0800 | | acpi: fix acpi_os_read_pci_configuration() misuse of raw_pci_read() reverting this commit ontop of -rc5 gave a correctly booting kernel. But this commit fixes a real bug so the real question is, why did it break the bootup? After quite some head-scratching, the following change stood out: - pci_id->bus = tu8; + pci_id->bus = val; pci_id->bus is defined as u16: struct acpi_pci_id { u16 segment; u16 bus; ... and 'tu8' changed from u8 to u32. So previously we'd unconditionally mask the return value of acpi_os_read_pci_configuration() (raw_pci_read()) to 8 bits, but now we just trust whatever comes back from the PCI access routines and only crop it to 16 bits. But if the high 8 bits of that result contains any noise then we'll write that into ACPI's PCI ID descriptor and confuse the heck out of the rest of ACPI. So lets check the PCI-BIOS code on that theory. We have this codepath for 8-bit accesses (arch/x86/pci/pcbios.c:pci_bios_read()): switch (len) { case 1: __asm__("lcall *(%%esi); cld\n\t" "jc 1f\n\t" "xor %%ah, %%ah\n" "1:" : "=c" (*value), "=a" (result) : "1" (PCIBIOS_READ_CONFIG_BYTE), "b" (bx), "D" ((long)reg), "S" (&pci_indirect)); Aha! The "=a" output constraint puts the full 32 bits of EAX into *value. But if the BIOS's routines set any of the high bits to nonzero, we'll return a value with more set in it than intended. The other, more common PCI access methods (v1 and v2 PCI reads) clear out the high bits already, for example pci_conf1_read() does: switch (len) { case 1: *value = inb(0xCFC + (reg & 3)); which explicitly converts the return byte up to 32 bits and zero-extends it. So zero-extending the result in the PCI-BIOS read routine fixes the regression on my laptop. ( It might fix some other long-standing issues we had with PCI-BIOS during the past decade ... ) Both 8-bit and 16-bit accesses were buggy.

Ahmed managed to crash the Host in release_pgd(), which cannot be a Guest bug, and indeed it wasn't. The bug was that handing a 0 as the address of the toplevel page table being manipulated can cause the lookup code in find_pgdir() to return an uninitialized cache entry (we shadow up to 4 top level page tables for each Guest). Commit 37cc8d7f introduced this behaviour in the Guest, uncovering the bug. The patch which he submitted (which removed the /4 from the index calculation) simply ensured that these high-indexed entries hit the early exit path of guest_set_pmd(). But you get lots of segfaults in guest userspace as the PMDs aren't being updated. Signed-off-by: NRusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

This makes 64-bit ptrace calls setting the 64-bit orig_ax field for a 32-bit task sign-extend the low 32 bits up to 64. This matches what a 64-bit debugger expects when tracing a 32-bit task. This follows on my "x86_64 ia32 syscall restart fix". This didn't matter until that was fixed. The debugger ignores or zeros the high half of every register slot it sets (including the orig_rax pseudo-register) uniformly. It expects that the setting of the low 32 bits always has the same meaning as a 32-bit debugger setting those same 32 bits with native 32-bit facilities. This never arose before because the syscall restart check never matched any -ERESTART* values due to lack of sign extension. Before that fix, even 32-bit ptrace setting orig_eax to -1 failed to trigger the restart check anyway. So this was never noticed as a regression of 64-bit debuggers vs 32-bit debuggers on the same 64-bit kernel.

The new x86 setup code (4fd06960) broke booting on an old P3/500MHz with an onboard Voodoo3 of mine. After debugging it, it turned out to be caused by the fact that the vesa probing now asks for VBE2 data. Disassembing the video BIOS shows that it overflows the vesa_general_info structure when VBE2 data is requested because the source addresses for the information strings which get strcpy'ed to the buffer lie outside the 32K BIOS code (and hence contain long sequences of 0xff's).
