      printk/of_serial: fix serial console cessation part way through boot. · 7fa21dd8
      由 Stephen Chivers 提交于 
      Commit 5f5c9ae5
"serial_core: Unregister console in uart_remove_one_port()"
fixed a crash where a serial port was removed but
not deregistered as a console.

There is a side effect of that commit for platforms having serial consoles
and of_serial configured (CONFIG_SERIAL_OF_PLATFORM). The serial console
is disabled midway through the boot process.

This cessation of the serial console affects PowerPC computers
such as the MVME5100 and SAM440EP.

The sequence is:

	bootconsole [udbg0] enabled
	....
	serial8250/16550 driver initialises and registers its UARTS,
	one of these is the serial console.
	console [ttyS0] enabled
	....
	of_serial probes "platform" devices, registering them as it goes.
	One of these is the serial console.
	console [ttyS0] disabled.

The disabling of the serial console is due to:

	a.  unregister_console in printk not clearing the
	    CONS_ENABLED bit in the console flags,
	    even though it has announced that the console is disabled; and

	b.  of_platform_serial_probe in of_serial not setting the port type
	    before it registers with serial8250_register_8250_port.

This patch ensures that the serial console is re-enabled when of_serial
registers a serial port that corresponds to the designated console.

===
The above failure was identified in Linux-3.15-rc2.

Tested using MVME5100 and SAM440EP PowerPC computers with
kernels built from Linux-3.15-rc5 and tty-next.

The continued operation of the serial console is vital for computers
such as the MVME5100 as that Single Board Computer does not
have any grapical/display hardware.

      rtmutex: Fix deadlock detector for real · 397335f0
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      The current deadlock detection logic does not work reliably due to the
following early exit path:

	/*
	 * Drop out, when the task has no waiters. Note,
	 * top_waiter can be NULL, when we are in the deboosting
	 * mode!
	 */
	if (top_waiter && (!task_has_pi_waiters(task) ||
			   top_waiter != task_top_pi_waiter(task)))
		goto out_unlock_pi;

So this not only exits when the task has no waiters, it also exits
unconditionally when the current waiter is not the top priority waiter
of the task.

So in a nested locking scenario, it might abort the lock chain walk
and therefor miss a potential deadlock.

Simple fix: Continue the chain walk, when deadlock detection is
enabled.

We also avoid the whole enqueue, if we detect the deadlock right away
(A-A). It's an optimization, but also prevents that another waiter who
comes in after the detection and before the task has undone the damage
observes the situation and detects the deadlock and returns
-EDEADLOCK, which is wrong as the other task is not in a deadlock
situation.

      powerpc, kexec: Fix "Processor X is stuck" issue during kexec from ST mode · 011e4b02
      由 Srivatsa S. Bhat 提交于 
      If we try to perform a kexec when the machine is in ST (Single-Threaded) mode
(ppc64_cpu --smt=off), the kexec operation doesn't succeed properly, and we
get the following messages during boot:

[    0.089866] POWER8 performance monitor hardware support registered

[   70.128495] Processor 15 is stuck.
[   75.131316] Processor 17 is stuck.

Note that only the sibling threads are stuck, while the primary threads (0, 8,
16 etc) boot just fine. Looking closer at the previous step of kexec, we observe
that kexec tries to wakeup (bring online) the sibling threads of all the cores,
before performing kexec:

[ 9464.131231] Starting new kernel
[ 9464.148507] kexec: Waking offline cpu 1.

[ 9464.148994] kexec: Waking offline cpu 15.
[ 9464.149030] kexec: Waking offline cpu 17.

Instrumenting this piece of code revealed that the cpu_up() operation actually
fails with -EBUSY. Thus, only the primary threads of all the cores are online
during kexec, and hence this is a sure-shot receipe for disaster, as explained
in commit e8e5c215 (powerpc/kexec: Fix orphaned offline CPUs across kexec),
as well as in the comment above wake_offline_cpus().

It turns out that cpu_up() was returning -EBUSY because the variable
'cpu_hotplug_disabled' was set to 1; and this disabling of CPU hotplug was done
by migrate_to_reboot_cpu() inside kernel_kexec().

Now, migrate_to_reboot_cpu() was originally written with the assumption that
any further code will not need to perform CPU hotplug, since we are anyway in
the reboot path. However, kexec is clearly not such a case, since we depend on
onlining CPUs, atleast on powerpc.

So re-enable cpu-hotplug after returning from migrate_to_reboot_cpu() in the
kexec path, to fix this regression in kexec on powerpc.

Also, wrap the cpu_up() in powerpc kexec code within a WARN_ON(), so that we
can catch such issues more easily in the future.
