      uml: i386: Avoid redefinition of NR_syscalls · ce60d4d5
      Jan Kiszka 提交于
      The i386 subarch happens to pull in original NR_syscalls. Maybe we can
      make that work for all host arch, but for now just avoid the clash by
      using an all-upper-case name.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      um: use generic ptrace_resume code · 1bd09508
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Use the generic ptrace_resume code for PTRACE_SYSCALL, PTRACE_CONT,
      PTRACE_KILL and PTRACE_SINGLESTEP.  This implies defining
      arch_has_single_step in <asm/ptrace.h> and implementing the
      user_enable_single_step and user_disable_single_step functions, which also
      causes the breakpoint information to be cleared on fork, which could be
      considered a bug fix.
      
      Also the TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE thread flag is now cleared on PTRACE_KILL which
      it previously wasn't which is consistent with all architectures using the
      modern ptrace code.
      
      XXX: I'm not sure arch_has_single_step() is placed in the exactly correct
      location, please verify in which of the ptrace headers it should really
      be.

      arm, cris, mips, sparc, powerpc, um, xtensa: fix build with bash 4.0 · 51b563fc
      Sam Ravnborg 提交于
      Albin Tonnerre <albin.tonnerre@free-electrons.com> reported:
      
          Bash 4 filters out variables which contain a dot in them.
          This happends to be the case of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds.
          This is rather unfortunate, as it now causes
          build failures when using SHELL=/bin/bash to compile,
          or when bash happens to be used by make (eg when it's /bin/sh)
      
      Remove the common definition of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds by
      pushing relevant stuff to either Makefile.build or the
      arch specific kernel/Makefile where we build the linker script.
      
      This is also nice cleanup as we move the information out where
      it is used.
      
      Notes for the different architectures touched:
      
      arm - we use an already exported symbol
      cris - we use a config symbol aleady available
             [Not build tested]
      mips - the jiffies complexity has moved to vmlinux.lds.S where we need it.
             Added a few variables to CPPFLAGS - they are only used by
             the linker script.
             [Not build tested]
      powerpc - removed assignment that is not needed
                [not build tested]
      sparc - simplified it using $(BITS)
      um - introduced a few new exported variables to deal with this
      xtensa - added options to CPP invocation

      linker script: unify usage of discard definition · 023bf6f1
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      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.  Michal Simek tested microblaze.

      UML on UML fixed: it did not start · 86d6f2bf
      Renzo Davoli 提交于
      It is currently impossible to run a user-mode linux machine inside another
      user-mode linux (UML on UML).  It breaks after a few instructions.  When
      it tries to check whether SYSEMU is installed (the inner) UML receives an
      inconsistent result (from the outer UML).
      
      This is the output of a broken attempt:
      $ ./linux mem=256m ubd0=cow
      Locating the bottom of the address space ... 0x0
      Locating the top of the address space ... 0xc0000000
      Core dump limits :
              soft - 0
              hard - NONE
      Checking that ptrace can change system call numbers...OK
      Checking ptrace new tags for syscall emulation...unsupported
      Checking syscall emulation patch for ptrace...check_sysemu : expected SIGTRAP, got status = 256
      $
      
      The problem is the following:
      
      PTRACE_SYSCALL/SINGLESTEP is currently managed inside arch_ptrace for ARCH=um.
      
      PTRACE_SYSEMU/SUSEMU_SINGLESTEP is not captured in arch_ptrace's switch,
      therefore it is erroneously passed back to ptrace_request (in
      kernel/ptrace).
      
      This simple patch simply forces ptrace to return an error on
      PTRACE_SYSEMU/SUSEMU_SINGLESTEP as it is unsupported on ARCH=um, and fixes
      the problem.

      mm: invoke oom-killer from page fault · 1c0fe6e3
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Rather than have the pagefault handler kill a process directly if it gets
      a VM_FAULT_OOM, have it call into the OOM killer.
      
      With increasingly sophisticated oom behaviour (cpusets, memory cgroups,
      oom killing throttling, oom priority adjustment or selective disabling,
      panic on oom, etc), it's silly to unconditionally kill the faulting
      process at page fault time.  Create a hook for pagefault oom path to call
      into instead.
      
      Only converted x86 and uml so far.

      1) Some archs (m32, parisc, s390) set possible_map to all 1, so we add a
         CONFIG_INIT_ALL_POSSIBLE for this rather than break them.
      
      2) mips and sparc32 '#define cpu_possible_map phys_cpu_present_map'.
         Those archs simply have phys_cpu_present_map replaced everywhere.
      
      3) Alpha defined cpu_possible_map to cpu_present_map; this is tricky
         so I just manipulate them both in sync.
      
      4) IA64, cris and m32r have gratuitous 'extern cpumask_t cpu_possible_map'
         declarations.

      kernel/cpu.c: create a CPU_STARTING cpu_chain notifier · e545a614
      Manfred Spraul 提交于
      Right now, there is no notifier that is called on a new cpu, before the new
      cpu begins processing interrupts/softirqs.
      Various kernel function would need that notification, e.g. kvm works around
      by calling smp_call_function_single(), rcu polls cpu_online_map.
      
      The patch adds a CPU_STARTING notification. It also adds a helper function
      that sends the message to all cpu_chain handlers.
      
      Tested on x86-64.
      All other archs are untested. Especially on sparc, I'm not sure if I got
      it right.
