Exception stacks are allocated each time a CPU is set online. But the allocated space is never freed. Thus with one CPU hotplug offline/online cycle there is a memory leak of 24K (6 pages) for a CPU. Fix is to allocate exception stacks only once -- when the CPU is set online for the first time.

commit 11a62a05 turns some formerly nopped debugging printks in arch/x86/kernel/mppparse.c into regular ones. The one at the top of smp_scan_config() in particular also prints on !CONFIG_SMP/CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC kernels and UP machines without anything resembling MP tables which makes their lowly UP owners wonder... Turn the former Dprintk()s into apic_printk()s instead meaning that their printing is dependent on passing the apic=verbose (or =debug) command line param. On 32-bit, "apic" is a __setup() param which isn't early enough for this code and therefore needs a followup changing it into an early_param(). On 64-bit, it already is.

The lowmem mapping table created by VMI need not depend on max_low_pfn at all. Instead we now create an extra large mapping which covers all possible lowmem instead of the physical ram that is actually available. This allows the vmi initialization to be done before max_low_pfn could be computed. We also move the vmi_init code very early in the boot process so that nobody accidentally breaks the fixmap dependancy.

由 Linus Torvalds 提交于
Clean up and optimize cpumask_of_cpu(), by sharing all the zero words. Instead of stupidly generating all possible i=0...NR_CPUS 2^i patterns creating a huge array of constant bitmasks, realize that the zero words can be shared. In other words, on a 64-bit architecture, we only ever need 64 of these arrays - with a different bit set in one single world (with enough zero words around it so that we can create any bitmask by just offsetting in that big array). And then we just put enough zeroes around it that we can point every single cpumask to be one of those things. So when we have 4k CPU's, instead of having 4k arrays (of 4k bits each, with one bit set in each array - 2MB memory total), we have exactly 64 arrays instead, each 8k bits in size (64kB total). And then we just point cpumask(n) to the right position (which we can calculate dynamically). Once we have the right arrays, getting "cpumask(n)" ends up being: static inline const cpumask_t *get_cpu_mask(unsigned int cpu) { const unsigned long *p = cpu_bit_bitmap[1 + cpu % BITS_PER_LONG]; p -= cpu / BITS_PER_LONG; return (const cpumask_t *)p; } This brings other advantages and simplifications as well: - we are not wasting memory that is just filled with a single bit in various different places - we don't need all those games to re-create the arrays in some dense format, because they're already going to be dense enough. if we compile a kernel for up to 4k CPU's, "wasting" that 64kB of memory is a non-issue (especially since by doing this "overlapping" trick we probably get better cache behaviour anyway).

This patch implements devices state save/restore before after kexec. This patch together with features in kexec_jump patch can be used for following: - A simple hibernation implementation without ACPI support. You can kexec a hibernating kernel, save the memory image of original system and shutdown the system. When resuming, you restore the memory image of original system via ordinary kexec load then jump back. - Kernel/system debug through making system snapshot. You can make system snapshot, jump back, do some thing and make another system snapshot. - Cooperative multi-kernel/system. With kexec jump, you can switch between several kernels/systems quickly without boot process except the first time. This appears like swap a whole kernel/system out/in. - A general method to call program in physical mode (paging turning off). This can be used to invoke BIOS code under Linux. The following user-space tools can be used with kexec jump: - kexec-tools needs to be patched to support kexec jump. The patches and the precompiled kexec can be download from the following URL: source: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec-tools-src_git_kh10.tar.bz2 patches: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec-tools-patches_git_kh10.tar.bz2 binary: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec_git_kh10 - makedumpfile with patches are used as memory image saving tool, it can exclude free pages from original kernel memory image file. The patches and the precompiled makedumpfile can be download from the following URL: source: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/makedumpfile/makedumpfile-src_cvs_kh10.tar.bz2 patches: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/makedumpfile/makedumpfile-patches_cvs_kh10.tar.bz2 binary: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/makedumpfile/makedumpfile_cvs_kh10 - An initramfs image can be used as the root file system of kexeced kernel. An initramfs image built with "BuildRoot" can be downloaded from the following URL: initramfs image: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/initramfs/rootfs_cvs_kh10.gz All user space tools above are included in the initramfs image. Usage example of simple hibernation: 1. Compile and install patched kernel with following options selected: CONFIG_X86_32=y CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y CONFIG_KEXEC=y CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y CONFIG_PM=y CONFIG_HIBERNATION=y CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP=y 2. Build an initramfs image contains kexec-tool and makedumpfile, or download the pre-built initramfs image, called rootfs.gz in following text. 3. Prepare a partition to save memory image of original kernel, called hibernating partition in following text. 4. Boot kernel compiled in step 1 (kernel A). 5. In the kernel A, load kernel compiled in step 1 (kernel B) with /sbin/kexec. The shell command line can be as follow: /sbin/kexec --load-preserve-context /boot/bzImage --mem-min=0x100000 --mem-max=0xffffff --initrd=rootfs.gz 6. Boot the kernel B with following shell command line: /sbin/kexec -e 7. The kernel B will boot as normal kexec. In kernel B the memory image of kernel A can be saved into hibernating partition as follow: jump_back_entry=`cat /proc/cmdline | tr ' ' '\n' | grep kexec_jump_back_entry | cut -d '='` echo $jump_back_entry > kexec_jump_back_entry cp /proc/vmcore dump.elf Then you can shutdown the machine as normal. 8. Boot kernel compiled in step 1 (kernel C). Use the rootfs.gz as root file system. 9. In kernel C, load the memory image of kernel A as follow: /sbin/kexec -l --args-none --entry=`cat kexec_jump_back_entry` dump.elf 10. Jump back to the kernel A as follow: /sbin/kexec -e Then, kernel A is resumed. Implementation point: To support jumping between two kernels, before jumping to (executing) the new kernel and jumping back to the original kernel, the devices are put into quiescent state, and the state of devices and CPU is saved. After jumping back from kexeced kernel and jumping to the new kernel, the state of devices and CPU are restored accordingly. The devices/CPU state save/restore code of software suspend is called to implement corresponding function. Known issues: - Because the segment number supported by sys_kexec_load is limited, hibernation image with many segments may not be load. This is planned to be eliminated by adding a new flag to sys_kexec_load to make a image can be loaded with multiple sys_kexec_load invoking. Now, only the i386 architecture is supported.

The features of this patch can be used as a general method to call program in physical mode (paging turning off). This can be used to call BIOS code under Linux. kexec-tools needs to be patched to support kexec jump.

Compile and install patched kernel with following options selected: CONFIG_X86_32=y CONFIG_KEXEC=y CONFIG_PM=y CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP=y 2. Build patched kexec-tool or download the pre-built one. 3. Build some physical mode executable named such as "phy_mode" 4. Boot kernel compiled in step 1. 5. Load physical mode executable with /sbin/kexec. The shell command line can be as follow: /sbin/kexec --load-preserve-context --args-none phy_mode 6. Call physical mode executable with following shell command line: /sbin/kexec -e Implementation point: To support jumping without reserving memory. One shadow backup page (source page) is allocated for each page used by kexeced code image (destination page). When do kexec_load, the image of kexeced code is loaded into source pages, and before executing, the destination pages and the source pages are swapped, so the contents of destination pages are backupped. Before jumping to the kexeced code image and after jumping back to the original kernel, the destination pages and the source pages are swapped too. C ABI (calling convention) is used as communication protocol between kernel and called code. A flag named KEXEC_PRESERVE_CONTEXT for sys_kexec_load is added to indicate that the loaded kernel image is used for jumping back. Now, only the i386 architecture is supported.

The calgary code can give drivers addresses above 4GB which is very bad for hardware that is only 32bit DMA addressable. With this patch, the calgary code sets the global dma_ops to swiotlb or nommu properly, and the dma_ops of devices behind the Calgary/CalIOC2 to calgary_dma_ops. So the calgary code can handle devices safely that aren't behind the Calgary/CalIOC2.

Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER architecture does: This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423). I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread). So I CC'ed this to KVM camp. Comments are appreciated. A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added. If the pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it. If it's NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before. If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works with hot plugging). It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate dma_mapping_ops per device. The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different dma_mapping_error functions. The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error. The patch is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in all the architecture. This patch: dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function. x86 IOMMUs use device argument.

What do you think? restore_fpu_checking() calls init_fpu() in error conditions. While this is wrong(as our main intention is to clear the fpu state of the thread), this was benign before commit 92d140e2 ("x86: fix taking DNA during 64bit sigreturn"). Post commit 92d140e2, live FPU registers may not belong to this process at this error scenario. In the error condition for restore_fpu_checking() (especially during the 64bit signal return), we are doing init_fpu(), which saves the live FPU register state (possibly belonging to some other process context) into the thread struct (through unlazy_fpu() in init_fpu()). This is wrong and can leak the FPU data. For the signal handler restore error condition in restore_i387(), clear the fpu state present in the thread struct(before ultimately sending a SIGSEGV for badframe). For the paranoid error condition check in math_state_restore(), send a SIGSEGV, if we fail to restore the state.

kdump kernel fails to boot with calgary iommu and aacraid driver on a x366 box. The ongoing dma's of aacraid from the first kernel continue to exist until the driver is loaded in the kdump kernel. Calgary is initialized prior to aacraid and creation of new tce tables causes wrong dma's to occur. Here we try to get the tce tables of the first kernel in kdump kernel and use them. While in the kdump kernel we do not allocate new tce tables but instead read the base address register contents of calgary iommu and use the tables that the registers point to. With these changes the kdump kernel and hence aacraid now boots normally.

Currently list of kretprobe instances are stored in kretprobe object (as used_instances,free_instances) and in kretprobe hash table. We have one global kretprobe lock to serialise the access to these lists. This causes only one kretprobe handler to execute at a time. Hence affects system performance, particularly on SMP systems and when return probe is set on lot of functions (like on all systemcalls). Solution proposed here gives fine-grain locks that performs better on SMP system compared to present kretprobe implementation. Solution: 1) Instead of having one global lock to protect kretprobe instances present in kretprobe object and kretprobe hash table. We will have two locks, one lock for protecting kretprobe hash table and another lock for kretporbe object. 2) We hold lock present in kretprobe object while we modify kretprobe instance in kretprobe object and we hold per-hash-list lock while modifying kretprobe instances present in that hash list. To prevent deadlock, we never grab a per-hash-list lock while holding a kretprobe lock. 3) We can remove used_instances from struct kretprobe, as we can track used instances of kretprobe instances using kretprobe hash table. Time duration for kernel compilation ("make -j 8") on a 8-way ppc64 system with return probes set on all systemcalls looks like this. cacheline non-cacheline Un-patched kernel aligned patch aligned patch =============================================================================== real 9m46.784s 9m54.412s 10m2.450s user 40m5.715s 40m7.142s 40m4.273s sys 2m57.754s 2m58.583s 3m17.430s =========================================================== Time duration for kernel compilation ("make -j 8) on the same system, when kernel is not probed. ========================= real 9m26.389s user 40m8.775s sys 2m7.283s ========================= Signed-off-by: NSrinivasa DS <srinivasa@in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NJim Keniston <jkenisto@us.ibm.com> Acked-by: NAnanth N Mavinakayanahalli <ananth@in.ibm.com> Cc: Anil S Keshavamurthy <anil.s.keshavamurthy@intel.com> Cc: David S.
