In particular, avoid membar instructions in the delay slot of a jmpl instruction. UltraSPARC-I, II, IIi, and IIe have a bug, documented in the UltraSPARC-IIi User's Manual, Appendix K, Erratum 51 The long and short of it is that if the IMU unit misses on a branch or jmpl, and there is a store buffer synchronizing membar in the delay slot, the chip can stop fetching instructions. If interrupts are enabled or some other trap is enabled, the chip will unwedge itself, but performance will suffer. We already had a workaround for this bug in a few spots, but it's better to have the entire tree sanitized for this rule. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Without the ability to atomically write 16 bytes, we can not update the middle slot of a bundle, slot 1, unless we stop the machine first.

The following is a patch provided by Ananth Mavinakayanahalli that implements the new PPC64 specific parts of the new function return probe design. NOTE: Since getting Ananth's patch, I changed trampoline_probe_handler() to consume each of the outstanding return probem instances (feedback on my original RFC after Ananth cut a patch), and also added the arch_init() function (adding arch specific initialization.) I have cross compiled but have not testing this on a PPC64 machine. Changes include: * Addition of kretprobe_trampoline to act as a dummy function for instrumented functions to return to, and for the return probe infrastructure to place a kprobe on on, gaining control so that the return probe handler can be called, and so that the instruction pointer can be moved back to the original return address. * Addition of arch_init(), allowing a kprobe to be registered on kretprobe_trampoline * Addition of trampoline_probe_handler() which is used as the pre_handler for the kprobe inserted on kretprobe_implementation. This is the function that handles the details for calling the return probe handler function and returning control back at the original return address * Addition of arch_prepare_kretprobe() which is setup as the pre_handler for a kprobe registered at the beginning of the target function by kernel/kprobes.c so that a return probe instance can be setup when a caller enters the target function. (A return probe instance contains all the needed information for trampoline_probe_handler to do it's job.) * Hooks added to the exit path of a task so that we can cleanup any left-over return probe instances (i.e. if a task dies while inside a targeted function then the return probe instance was reserved at the beginning of the function but the function never returns so we need to mark the instance as unused.)

The following patch implements function return probes for ia64 using the revised design. With this new design we no longer need to do some of the odd hacks previous required on the last ia64 return probe port that I sent out for comments. Note that this new implementation still does not resolve the problem noted by Keith Owens where backtrace data is lost after a return probe is hit. Changes include: * Addition of kretprobe_trampoline to act as a dummy function for instrumented functions to return to, and for the return probe infrastructure to place a kprobe on on, gaining control so that the return probe handler can be called, and so that the instruction pointer can be moved back to the original return address. * Addition of arch_init(), allowing a kprobe to be registered on kretprobe_trampoline * Addition of trampoline_probe_handler() which is used as the pre_handler for the kprobe inserted on kretprobe_implementation.

Changes include: * Removing the architecture specific functions for querying a return probe instance off a stack address * Complete rework onf arch_prepare_kretprobe() and trampoline_probe_handler() * Removing trampoline_post_handler() * Adding arch_init() so that now we handle registering the return probe trampoline instead of kernel/kprobes.c doing it NOTE: Note that with this new design, the dependency on calculating a pointer to the task off the stack pointer no longer exist (resolving the problem of interruption stacks as pointed out in the original feedback to this port.)

Now that PPC64 has no-execute support, here is a second try to fix the single step out of line during kprobe execution.

I believe at least for seccomp it's worth to turn off the tsc, not just for HT but for the L2 cache too. So it's up to you, either you turn it off completely (which isn't very nice IMHO) or I recommend to apply this below patch. This has been tested successfully on x86-64 against current cogito repository (i686 compiles so I didn't bother testing ;). People selling the cpu through cpushare may appreciate this bit for a peace of mind. There's no way to get any timing info anymore with this applied (gettimeofday is forbidden of course). The seccomp environment is completely deterministic so it can't be allowed to get timing info, it has to be deterministic so in the future I can enable a computing mode that does a parallel computing for each task with server side transparent checkpointing and verification that the output is the same from all the 2/3 seller computers for each task, without the buyer even noticing (for now the verification is left to the buyer client side and there's no checkpointing, since that would require more kernel changes to track the dirty bits but it'll be easy to extend once the basic mode is finished). Eliminating a cold-cache read of the cr4 global variable will save one cacheline during the tlb flush while making the code per-cpu-safe at the same time. Thanks to Mikael Pettersson for noticing the tlb flush wasn't per-cpu-safe. The global tlb flush can run from irq (IPI calling do_flush_tlb_all) but it'll be transparent to the switch_to code since the IPI won't make any change to the cr4 contents from the point of view of the interrupted code and since it's now all per-cpu stuff, it will not race. So no need to disable irqs in switch_to slow path.

The Power Management Unit on PowerMacs is very sensitive to timeouts during async message exchanges. It uses rather crude protocol based on a shift register with an interrupt and is almost continuously exchanging messages with the host CPU on laptops. This patch adds a routine to the open_pic driver to be able to select a PMU driver so that it bumps it's interrupt priority to above the normal level. This will allow PMU interrupts to occur while another interrupt is pending, and thus reduce the risk of machine beeing abruptly shutdown by the PMU due to a timeout in PMU communication caused by excessive interrupt latency. The problem is very rare, and usually just doesn't happen, but it is still useful to make things even more robust.

The proposed _tlbie call at update_mmu_cache() is safe because: Addresses for which update_mmu_cache() gets invocated are never inside the static kernel virtual mapping, meaning that there is no risk for the _tlbie() here to be thrashing the pinned entry, as Dan suspected. The intermediate TLB state in which this bug can be triggered is not visible by userspace or any other contexts, except the page fault handling path. So there is no need to worry about userspace dcbxxx users. The other solution to this is to avoid dcbst misbehaviour in the first place, which involves changing in-kernel "dcbst" callers to use 8xx specific SPR's. Summary: On 8xx, cache control instructions (particularly "dcbst" from flush_dcache_icache) fault as write operation if there is an unpopulated TLB entry for the address in question. To workaround that, we invalidate the TLB here, thus avoiding dcbst misbehaviour.

Various USB patches, mostly for portability: - Fifo mode 1 didn't work previously (oopsed), so now it's fixed and (why not) defines even more endpoints for composite devices. - OMAP 1710 doesn't have an internal transceiver. - Small PM update: if the USB link is suspended, don't disconnect on entry to deep sleep. - Be more correct about handling zero length control reads. OMAP seems to mis-handle that protocol peculiarity though; best avoided. - Platform device resources (for UDC and OTG controllers) now use physical addresses, so /proc/iomem is more consistent. - Minor cleanups, notably (by volume) for "sparse" NULL warnings.

This updates the CFQ io scheduler to the new time sliced design (cfq v3). It provides full process fairness, while giving excellent aggregate system throughput even for many competing processes. It supports io priorities, either inherited from the cpu nice value or set directly with the ioprio_get/set syscalls. The latter closely mimic set/getpriority.

Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls. 5. Some whitespace cleanup 6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check PF_FROZEN).
