由 Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
Our MMU hash management code would not set the "C" bit (changed bit) in the hardware PTE when updating a RO PTE into a RW PTE. That would cause the hardware to possibly to a write back to the hash table to set it on the first store access, which in addition to being a performance issue, might also hit a bug when running with native hash management (non-HV) as our code is specifically optimized for the case where no write back happens. Thus there is a very small therocial window were a hash PTE can become corrupted if that HPTE has just been upgraded to read write, a store access happens on it, and that races with another processor evicting that same slot. Since eviction (caused by an almost full hash) is extremely rare, the bug is very unlikely to happen fortunately. This fixes by allowing the updating of the protection bits in the native hash handling to also set (but not clear) the "C" bit, and, in order to also improve performances in the general case, by always setting that bit on newly inserted hash PTE so that writeback really never happens.

This patch cleans up some locking & error handling in the ppc vdso and moves the vdso base pointer from the thread struct to the mm context where it more logically belongs. It brings the powerpc implementation closer to Ingo's new x86 one and also adds an arch_vma_name() function allowing to print [vsdo] in /proc/<pid>/maps if Ingo's x86 vdso patch is also applied.

I have tested PPC_PTRACE_GETREGS and PPC_PTRACE_SETREGS on umview. I do not understand why historically these tags has been defined as PPC_PTRACE_GETREGS and PPC_PTRACE_SETREGS instead of simply PTRACE_[GS]ETREGS. The other "originality" is that the address must be put into the "addr" field instead of the "data" field as stated in the manual.

A proper fix would involve introducing the notion of shared caches but at this stage of 2.6.17 that's going to be too intrusive and not needed for current hardware; aside I think some discussion will be needed. So for now on the affected SMP configurations which happen to suffer from cache aliases we make use of the fact that a single cache will be shared by all processors. This solves the deadlock issue and will improve performance by getting rid of the smp_call_function overhead. Signed-off-by: NRalf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

When debugging a kernel compiled by gcc 4.1 with gdb 6.4, gdb could not show filename, linenumber, etc. It seems fixed if I used generic DWARF_DEBUG macro.

由 Sergei Shtylyov 提交于
In case of CONFIG_64BIT_PHYS_ADDR, set_pte() and pte_clear() functions only set _PAGE_GLOBAL bit in the pte_low field of the buddy PTEs, forgetting to propagate ito to pte_high. Thus, the both pages might not really be made global for the CPU (since it AND's the G-bit of the odd / even PTEs together to decide whether they're global or not). Thus, if only a single page is allocated via vmalloc() or ioremap(), it's not really global for CPU (and it must be, since this is kernel mapping), and thus its ASID is compared against the current process' one -- so, we'll get into trouble sooner or later... Also, pte_none() will fail on global pages because _PAGE_GLOBAL bit is set in both pte_low and pte_high, and pte_val() will return u64 value consisting of those fields concateneted.

由 NeilBrown 提交于
From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> If an error is reported by a drive in a RAID array (which is done via bi_end_io - in interrupt context), we call md_error and md_new_event which calls sysfs_notify. However sysfs_notify grabs a mutex and so cannot be called in interrupt context. This patch just creates a variant of md_new_event which avoids the sysfs call, and uses that. A better fix for later is to arrange for the event to be called from user-context. Note: avoiding the sysfs call isn't a problem as an error will not, by itself, modify the sync_action attribute. (We do still need to wake_up(&md_event_waiters) as an error by itself will modify /proc/mdstat).

This is a temporary fix until we get proper ACPI handling in IPMI. Fixed releasing already-allocated regions when a later request fails, and forward-ported it to HEAD. Some BIOSes reserve disjoint I/O regions in their ACPI tables for the IPMI controller. This causes problems when trying to register the entire I/O region.

From: Seiji Munetoh <seiji.munetoh@gmail.com> Change the binary output format to actual ACPI TCPA log structure since the current format does not contain all event-data information that need to verify the PCRs in TPM. tpm_binary_bios_measurements_show() uses get_event_name() to convert the binary event-data to ascii format, and puts them as binary. However, to verify the PCRs, the event-data must be a actual binary event-data used by SHA1 calc. in BIOS. So, I think actual ACPI TCPA log is good for this binary output format.
