Aside from using fewer output sections and moving some data around, the main side effect of this change is changing the alignment of some sections. In particular: * cachline-aligned and read_mostly data are now aligned to SMP_CACHE_BYTES. (Previously, they were laid out consecutively after a PAGE_SIZE alignment) * .init.ramfs is now page-aligned, per the INIT_RAM_FS macro. (Previously it had no explicit alignment).

Setting monarch_cpu = -1 to let slaves frozen might not work, because there might be slaves being late, not entered the rendezvous yet. Such slaves might be caught in while (monarch_cpu == -1) loop. Use kdump_in_progress instead of monarch_cpus to break INIT rendezvous and let all slaves enter DIE_INIT_SLAVE_LEAVE smoothly. And monarch no longer need to manage rendezvous if once kdump_in_progress is set, catch the monarch in DIE_INIT_MONARCH_ENTER then.

Summary: Asserting INIT might block kdump if the system is already going to start kdump via panic. Description: INIT can interrupt anywhere in panic path, so it can interrupt in middle of kdump kicked by panic. Therefore there is a race if kdump is kicked concurrently, via Panic and via INIT. INIT could fail to invoke kdump if the system is already going to start kdump via panic. It could not restart kdump from INIT handler if some of cpus are already playing dead with INIT masked. It also means that INIT could block kdump's progress if no monarch is entered in the INIT rendezvous. Panic+INIT is a rare, but possible situation since it can be assumed that the kernel or an internal agent decides to panic the unstable system while another external agent decides to send an INIT to the system at same time. How to reproduce: Assert INIT just after panic, before all other cpus have frozen Expected results: continue kdump invoked by panic, or restart kdump from INIT Actual results: might be hang, crashdump not retrieved Proposed Fix: This patch masks INIT first in panic path to take the initiative on kdump, and reuse atomic value kdump_in_progress to make sure there is only one initiator of kdump. All INITs asserted later should be used only for freezing all other cpus. This mask will be removed soon by rfi in relocate_kernel.S, before jump into kdump kernel, after all cpus are frozen and no-op INIT handler is registered. So if INIT was in the interval while it is masked, it will pend on the system and will received just after the rfi, and handled by the no-op handler. If there was a MCA event while psr.mc is 1, in theory the event will pend on the system and will received just after the rfi same as above. MCA handler is unregistered here at the time, so received MCA will not reach to OS_MCA and will result in warmboot by SAL. Note that codes in this masked interval are relatively simpler than that in MCA/INIT handler which also executed with the mask. So it can be said that probability of error in this interval is supposed not so higher than that in MCA/INIT handler.

Summary: Asserting INIT on cpu going to be offline will result in unexpected behavior. It will be a real problem in kdump cases where INIT might be asserted to unstable APs going to be offline by returning to SAL. Description: Since psr.mc is cleared when bits in psr are set to SAL_PSR_BITS_TO_SET in ia64_jump_to_sal(), there is a small window (~few msecs) that the cpu can receive INIT even if the cpu enter there via INIT handler. In this window we do restore of registers for SAL, so INIT asserted here will not work properly. It is hard to remove this window by masking INIT (i.e. setting psr.mc) because we have to unmask it later in OS, because we have to use branch instruction (br.ret, not rfi) to return SAL, due to OS_BOOT_RENDEZ to SAL return convention. I suppose this window will not be a real problem on cpu offline if we can educate people not to push INIT button during hotplug operation. However, only exception is a race in kdump and INIT. Now kdump returns APs to SAL before processing dump, but the kernel might receive INIT at that point in time. Such INIT might be asserted by kdump itself if an AP doesn't react IPI soon and kdump decided to use INIT to stop the AP. Or it might be asserted by operator or an external agent to start dump on the unstable system. Such panic+INIT or INIT+INIT cases should be rare, but it will be happy if we can retrieve crashdump even in such cases. How to reproduce: panic+INIT or INIT+INIT, with kdump configured Expected results: crashdump is retrieved anyway Actual results: panic, hang etc. (unexpected) Proposed fix To avoid the window on the way to SAL, this patch stops returning APs to SAL in case of kdump. In other words, this patch makes APs spin in OS instead of spinning in SAL. (* Note: What impact would be there? If a cpu is spinning in SAL, the cpu is in BOOT_RENDEZ loop, as same as offlined cpu. In theory if an INIT is asserted there, cpus in the BOOT_RENDEZ loop should not invoke OS_INIT on it. So in either way, no matter where the cpu is spinning actually in, once cpu starts spin and act as "frozen," INIT on the cpu have no effects. From another point of view, all debug information on the cpu should have stored to memory before the cpu start to be frozen. So no more action on the cpu is required.) I confirmed that the kdump sometime hangs by concurrent INITs (another INIT after an INIT), and it doesn't hang after applying this patch.

Summary: MCA on the beginning of kdump/kexec kernel will result in unexpected behavior because MCA handler for previous kernel is invoked on the kdump kernel. Description: Once a cpu is passed to new kernel, all resources in previous kernel should not be used from the cpu. Even the resources for MCA handler are no exception. So we cannot handle MCAs and its machine check errors during kernel transition, until new handler for new kernel is registered with new resources ready for handling the MCA. How to reproduce: Assert MCA while kdump kernel is booting, before new MCA handler for kdump kernel is registered. Expected(Desirable) results: No recovery, cancel kdump and reboot the system. Actual results: MCA handler for previous kernel is invoked on the kdump kernel. => panic, hang etc. (unexpected) Proposed fix: To avoid entering MCA handler from early stage of new kernel, unregister the entry point from SAL before leave from current kernel. Then SAL will make all MCAs to warmboot safely, without invoking OS_MCA.

kdump/kexec kernel Summary: Asserting INIT on the beginning of kdump/kexec kernel will result in unexpected behavior because INIT handler for previous kernel is invoked on new kernel. Description: In panic situation, we can receive INIT while kernel transition, i.e. from beginning of panic to bootstrap of kdump kernel. Since we initialize registers on leave from current kernel, no longer monarch/slave handlers of current kernel in virtual mode are called safely. (In fact system goes hang as far as I confirmed) How to Reproduce: Start kdump # echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger Then assert INIT while kdump kernel is booting, before new INIT handler for kdump kernel is registered. Expected(Desirable) result: kdump kernel boots without any problem, crashdump retrieved Actual result: INIT handler for previous kernel is invoked on kdump kernel => panic, hang etc. (unexpected) Proposed fix: We can unregister these init handlers from SAL before jumping into new kernel, however then the INIT will fallback to default behavior, result in warmboot by SAL (according to the SAL specification) and we cannot retrieve the crashdump. Therefore this patch introduces a NOP init handler and register it to SAL before leave from current kernel, to start kdump safely by preventing INITs from entering virtual mode and resulting in warmboot. On the other hand, in case of kexec that not for kdump, it also has same problem with INIT while kernel transition. This patch handles this case differently, because for kexec unregistering handlers will be preferred than registering NOP handler, since the situation "no handlers registered" is usual state for kernel's entry.

Summary: INIT asserted on kdump kernel invokes INIT handler not only on a cpu that running on the kdump kernel, but also BSP of the panicked kernel, because the (badly) frozen BSP can be thawed by INIT. Description: The kdump_cpu_freeze() is called on cpus except one that initiates panic and/or kdump, to stop/offline the cpu (on ia64, it means we pass control of cpus to SAL, or put them in spinloop). Note that CPU0(BSP) always go to spinloop, so if panic was happened on an AP, there are at least 2cpus (= the AP and BSP) which not back to SAL. On the spinning cpus, interrupts are disabled (rsm psr.i), but INIT is still interruptible because psr.mc for mask them is not set unless kdump_cpu_freeze() is not called from MCA/INIT context. Therefore, assume that a panic was happened on an AP, kdump was invoked, new INIT handlers for kdump kernel was registered and then an INIT is asserted. From the viewpoint of SAL, there are 2 online cpus, so INIT will be delivered to both of them. It likely means that not only the AP (= a cpu executing kdump) enters INIT handler which is newly registered, but also BSP (= another cpu spinning in panicked kernel) enters the same INIT handler. Of course setting of registers in BSP are still old (for panicked kernel), so what happen with running handler with wrong setting will be extremely unexpected. I believe this is not desirable behavior. How to Reproduce: Start kdump on one of APs (e.g. cpu1) # taskset 0x2 echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger Then assert INIT after kdump kernel is booted, after new INIT handler for kdump kernel is registered. Expected results: An INIT handler is invoked only on the AP. Actual results: An INIT handler is invoked on the AP and BSP. Sample of results: I got following console log by asserting INIT after prompt "root:/>". It seems that two monarchs appeared by one INIT, and one panicked at last. And it also seems that the panicked one supposed there were 4 online cpus and no one did rendezvous: : [ 0 %]dropping to initramfs shell exiting this shell will reboot your system root:/> Entered OS INIT handler. PSP=fff301a0 cpu=0 monarch=0 ia64_init_handler: Promoting cpu 0 to monarch. Delaying for 5 seconds... All OS INIT slaves have reached rendezvous Processes interrupted by INIT - 0 (cpu 0 task 0xa000000100af0000) : <<snip>> : Entered OS INIT handler. PSP=fff301a0 cpu=0 monarch=1 Delaying for 5 seconds... mlogbuf_finish: printing switched to urgent mode, MCA/INIT might be dodgy or fail. OS INIT slave did not rendezvous on cpu 1 2 3 INIT swapper 0[0]: bugcheck! 0 [1] : <<snip>> : Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task! Proposed fix: To avoid this problem, this patch inserts ia64_set_psr_mc() to mask INIT on cpus going to be frozen. This masking have no effect if the kdump_cpu_freeze() is called from INIT handler when kdump_on_init == 1, because psr.mc is already turned on to 1 before entering OS_INIT. I confirmed that weird log like above are disappeared after applying this patch.

Add a keyctl to install a process's session keyring onto its parent. This replaces the parent's session keyring. Because the COW credential code does not permit one process to change another process's credentials directly, the change is deferred until userspace next starts executing again. Normally this will be after a wait*() syscall. To support this, three new security hooks have been provided: cred_alloc_blank() to allocate unset security creds, cred_transfer() to fill in the blank security creds and key_session_to_parent() - which asks the LSM if the process may replace its parent's session keyring. The replacement may only happen if the process has the same ownership details as its parent, and the process has LINK permission on the session keyring, and the session keyring is owned by the process, and the LSM permits it. Note that this requires alteration to each architecture's notify_resume path. This has been done for all arches barring blackfin, m68k* and xtensa, all of which need assembly alteration to support TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME. This allows the replacement to be performed at the point the parent process resumes userspace execution. This allows the userspace AFS pioctl emulation to fully emulate newpag() and the VIOCSETTOK and VIOCSETTOK2 pioctls, all of which require the ability to alter the parent process's PAG membership. However, since kAFS doesn't use PAGs per se, but rather dumps the keys into the session keyring, the session keyring of the parent must be replaced if, for example, VIOCSETTOK is passed the newpag flag. This can be tested with the following program: #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <keyutils.h> #define KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT 18 #define OSERROR(X, S) do { if ((long)(X) == -1) { perror(S); exit(1); } } while(0) int main(int argc, char **argv) { key_serial_t keyring, key; long ret; keyring = keyctl_join_session_keyring(argv[1]); OSERROR(keyring, "keyctl_join_session_keyring"); key = add_key("user", "a", "b", 1, keyring); OSERROR(key, "add_key"); ret = keyctl(KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT); OSERROR(ret, "KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT"); return 0; } Compiled and linked with -lkeyutils, you should see something like: [dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show Session Keyring -3 --alswrv 4043 4043 keyring: _ses 355907932 --alswrv 4043 -1 \_ keyring: _uid.4043 [dhowells@andromeda ~]$ /tmp/newpag [dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show Session Keyring -3 --alswrv 4043 4043 keyring: _ses 1055658746 --alswrv 4043 4043 \_ user: a [dhowells@andromeda ~]$ /tmp/newpag hello [dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show Session Keyring -3 --alswrv 4043 4043 keyring: hello 340417692 --alswrv 4043 4043 \_ user: a Where the test program creates a new session keyring, sticks a user key named 'a' into it and then installs it on its parent.

Discarded sections in different archs share some commonality but have considerable differences. This led to linker script for each arch implementing its own /DISCARD/ definition, which makes maintaining tedious and adding new entries error-prone. This patch makes all linker scripts to move discard definitions to the end of the linker script and use the common DISCARDS macro. As ld uses the first matching section definition, archs can include default discarded sections by including them earlier in the linker script. ia64 is notable because it first throws away some ia64 specific subsections and then include the rest of the sections into the final image, so those sections must be discarded before the inclusion. defconfig compile tested for x86, x86-64, powerpc, powerpc64, ia64, alpha, sparc, sparc64 and s390.

Migrating piecemeal is too painful; this giant patch fixes all compilation warnings and errors that come as a result of switching to use int-ll64.h. Note that userspace will still see __u64 defined as unsigned long. This is important as it affects C++ name mangling.

put_cpu_no_resched() is an optimization of put_cpu() which unfortunately can cause high latencies. The nfs iostats code uses put_cpu_no_resched() in a code sequence where a reschedule request caused by an interrupt between the get_cpu() and the put_cpu_no_resched() can delay the reschedule for at least HZ. The other users of put_cpu_no_resched() optimize correctly in interrupt code, but there is no real harm in using the put_cpu() function which is an alias for preempt_enable(). The extra check of the preemmpt count is not as critical as the potential source of missing a reschedule. Debugged in the preempt-rt tree and verified in mainline.

Callers of alloc_pages_node() can optionally specify -1 as a node to mean "allocate from the current node". However, a number of the callers in fast paths know for a fact their node is valid. To avoid a comparison and branch, this patch adds alloc_pages_exact_node() that only checks the nid with VM_BUG_ON(). Callers that know their node is valid are then converted.

* create mm/init-mm.c, move init_mm there * remove INIT_MM, initialize init_mm with C99 initializer * unexport init_mm on all arches: init_mm is already unexported on x86. One strange place is some OMAP driver (drivers/video/omap/) which won't build modular, but it's already wants get_vm_area() export. Somebody should look there.

The defines and typedefs (hw_interrupt_type, no_irq_type, irq_desc_t) have been kept around for migration reasons. After more than two years it's time to remove them finally. This patch cleans up one of the remaining users. When all such patches hit mainline we can remove the defines and typedefs finally. Impact: cleanup Convert the last remaining users to struct irq_chip and remove the define.

KVM uses a function call IPI to cause the exit of a guest running on a physical cpu. For virtual interrupt notification there is no need to wait on IPI receival, or to execute any function. This is exactly what the reschedule IPI does, without the overhead of function IPI. So use it instead of smp_call_function_single in kvm_vcpu_kick. Also change the "guest_mode" variable to a bit in vcpu->requests, and use that to collapse multiple IPI's that would be issued between the first one and zeroing of guest mode. This allows kvm_vcpu_kick to called with interrupts disabled. Signed-off-by: NMarcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
