| * kernel/cpu.c: create a CPU_STARTING cpu_chain notifierManfred Spraul2008-09-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Initial fix for making sure that we can access percpu variables in all C code (commit: 10617bbe84628eb18ab5f723d3ba35005adde143) inadvertantly allocated the memory in the "percpu" section of the vmlinux ELF executable.

* | [IA64] kexec fails on systems with blocks of uncached memoryJay Lan2008-09-221-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently a memory segment in memory map with attribute of EFI_MEMORY_UC is denoted as "System RAM" in /proc/iomem, while memory of attribute (EFI_MEMORY_WB|EFI_MEMORY_UC) is also labeled the same. The kexec utility then includes uncached memory as part of vmcore. The kdump kernel MCA'ed when it tries to save the vmcore to a disk. A normal "cached" access may cause MCAs. This patch would label memory with attribute of EFI_MEMORY_UC only as "Uncached RAM" so that kexec would know not to include it in the vmcore. I will submit a separate kexec-tools patch to the kexec list. Signed-off-by: Jay Lan <jlan@sgi.com> Acked-by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

* | lib: Correct printk %pF to work on all architecturesJames Bottomley2008-09-091-0/+12
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It was introduced by "vsprintf: add support for '%pS' and '%pF' pointer formats" in commit 0fe1ef24f7bd0020f29ffe287dfdb9ead33ca0b2. However, the current way its coded doesn't work on parisc64. For two reasons: 1) parisc isn't in the #ifdef and 2) parisc has a different format for function descriptors Make dereference_function_descriptor() more accommodating by allowing architecture overrides. I put the three overrides (for parisc64, ppc64 and ia64) in arch/kernel/module.c because that's where the kernel internal linker which knows how to deal with function descriptors sits.

* [IA64] Fix ia64 build failure when CONFIG_SFC=mRobin Holt2008-08-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CONFIG_SFC=m uses topology_core_siblings() which, for ia64, expects cpu_core_map to be exported. It is not. This patch exports the needed symbol. Maintainers note: This really looks like the wrong thing to do ... it would be much better for the kernel to export an API to provide drivers like this with data they need (which in the case of this driver seems to be an estimate of the effective parallelism available on the platform). But x86 has exported this forever ... so go with the flow until such an API is defined.

* [IA64] Ensure cpu0 can access per-cpu variables in early boot codeTony Luck2008-08-124-9/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ia64 handles per-cpu variables a litle differently from other architectures in that it maps the physical memory allocated for each cpu at a constant virtual address (0xffffffffffff0000). This mapping is not enabled until the architecture specific cpu_init() function is run, which causes problems since some generic code is run before this point. In particular when CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME is enabled, the boot cpu will trap on the access to per-cpu memory at the first printk() call so the boot will fail without the kernel printing anything to the console. Fix this by allocating percpu memory for cpu0 in the kernel data section and doing all initialization to enable percpu access in head.S before calling any generic code. Other cpus must take care not to access per-cpu variables too early, but their code path from start_secondary() to cpu_init() is all in arch/ia64 Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

* | kprobes: improve kretprobe scalability with hashed lockingSrinivasa D S2008-07-251-4/+2
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* flag parameters: pipeUlrich Drepper2008-07-241-1/+1

This patch implements the handling of O_CLOEXEC for the flag. I did not add support for the new syscall for the architectures which have a special sys_pipe implementation. I think the maintainers of those archs have the chance to go with the unified implementation but that's up to them. The implementation introduces do_pipe_flags. I did that instead of changing all callers of do_pipe because some of the callers are written in assembler. I would probably screw up changing the assembly code. To avoid breaking code do_pipe is now a small wrapper around do_pipe_flags. Once all callers are changed over to do_pipe_flags the old do_pipe function can be removed.

| * [IA64] pvops: preparation: move the constants, LOAD_OFFSET, to a header file.Isaku Yamahata2008-05-271-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move the LOAD_OFFSET definition from vmlinux.lds.S into system.h. On paravirtualized environments, it is necessary to detect the execution environment. One of the solutions is the multi entry point. The multi entry point allows a boot loader to start the kernel execution from the entry point which is different from the ELF entry point. The non standard entry point will defined as the specialized elf note which contains the LMA of the entry point symbol. The constant, LOAD_OFFSET, is necessary to calculate the symbol's LMA. Move the definition into the public header file to make it available to the multi entry point support.

* | ACPI : Create "idle=nomwait" bootparamZhao Yakui2008-07-161-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "idle=nomwait" disables the use of the MWAIT instruction from both C1 (C1_FFH) and deeper (C2C3_FFH) C-states. When MWAIT is unavailable, the BIOS and OS generally negotiate to use the HALT instruction for C1, and use IO accesses for deeper C-states. This option is useful for power and performance comparisons, and also to work around BIOS bugs where broken MWAIT support is advertised. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10807 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10914 Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Li Shaohua <shaohua.li@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "idle=halt" limits the idle loop to using the halt instruction. No MWAIT, no IO accesses, no C-states deeper than C1. If something is broken in the idle code, "idle=halt" is a less severe workaround than "idle=poll" which disables all power savings.

* | | [IA64] Bugfix for system with 32 cpusTony Luck2008-06-301-1/+2
|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On a system where there are no hot pluggable cpus "additional_cpus" is still set to -1 at the point where we call per_cpu_scan_finalize(). If we didn't find an SRAT table and so pick the default "32" for the number of cpus, when we get to: high_cpu = min(high_cpu + reserve_cpus, NR_CPUS); we will end up initializing for just 31 cpus ... and so we will die horribly when bringing up cpu#32.
