* x86: printk kernel version in WARN_ON and other dump_stack usersArjan van de Ven2007-11-262-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | today, all oopses contain a version number of the kernel, which is nice because the people who actually do bother to read the oops get this vital bit of information always without having to ask the reporter in another round trip. However, WARN_ON() and many other dump_stack() users right now lack this information; the patch below adds this. This information is essential for getting people to use their time effectively when looking at these things; in addition, it's essential for tools that try to collect statistics about defects. Please consider, since its so simple and important for long term kernel quality processes. The code is identical between 32/64 bit; a lot of this code should be unified over time, the patch keeps the identical-ness intact.

* x86: simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig all.configSam Ravnborg2007-11-171-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig so we again can set 64BIT in all.config. For a fix the diffstat is nice: 6 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 36 deletions(-) The patch reverts these commits: 0f855aa64b3f63d35a891510cf7db932a435c116 -> kconfig: add helper to set config symbol from environment variable 2a113281f5cd2febbab21a93c8943f8d3eece4d3 -> kconfig: use $K64BIT to set 64BIT with all*config targets Roman Zippel pointed out that kconfig supported string compares so the additional complexity introduced by the above two patches were not needed. With this patch we have following behaviour: # make {allno,allyes,allmod,rand}config [ARCH=...] option \ host arch | 32bit | 64bit ===================================================== ./. | 32bit | 64bit ARCH=x86 | 32bit | 32bit ARCH=i386 | 32bit | 32bit ARCH=x86_64 | 64bit | 64bit The general rule are that ARCH= and native architecture takes precedence over the configuration. So make ARCH=i386 [whatever] will always build a 32-bit kernel no matter what the configuration says. The configuration will be updated to 32-bit if it was configured to 64-bit and the other way around. This behaviour is consistent with previous behaviour so no suprises here. make ARCH=x86 will per default result in a 32-bit kernel but as the only ARCH= value x86 allow the user to select between 32-bit and 64-bit using menuconfig.

* x86: on x86_64, correct reading of PC RTC when update in progress in time_64.cDavid P. Reed2007-11-171-12/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Correct potentially unstable PC RTC time register reading in time_64.c Stop the use of an incorrect technique for reading the standard PC RTC timer, which is documented to "disconnect" time registers from the bus while updates are in progress. The use of UIP flag while interrupts are disabled to protect a 244 microsecond window is one of the Motorola spec sheet's documented ways to read the RTC time registers reliably. tglx: removed locking changes from original patch, as they gain nothing (read_persistent_clock is only called during boot, suspend, resume - so no hot path affected) and conflict with the paravirt locking scheme (see 32bit code), which we do not want to complicate for no benefit.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix hard freeze on x86_64 when the ntpd service calls update_persistent_clock() A repeatable but randomly timed freeze has been happening in Fedora 6 and 7 for the last year, whenever I run the ntpd service on my AMD64x2 HP Pavilion dv9000z laptop. This freeze is due to the use of spin_lock(&rtc_lock) under the assumption (per a bad comment) that set_rtc_mmss is called only with interrupts disabled. The call from ntp.c to update_persistent_clock is made with interrupts enabled. Signed-off-by: David P. Reed <dpreed@reed.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

* x86: fix cpu-hotplug regressionAndreas Herrmann2007-11-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit d435d862baca3e25e5eec236762a43251b1e7ffc ("cpu hotplug: mce: fix cpu hotplug error handling") changed the error handling in mce_cpu_callback. In cases where not all CPUs are brought up during boot (e.g. using maxcpus and additional_cpus parameters) mce_cpu_callback now returns NOTFIY_BAD because for such CPUs cpu_data is not completely filled when the notifier is called. Thus mce_create_device fails right at its beginning: if (!mce_available(&cpu_data[cpu])) return -EIO; As a quick fix I suggest to check boot_cpu_data for MCE. To reproduce this regression: (1) boot with maxcpus=2 addtional_cpus=2 on a 4 CPU x86-64 system (2) # echo 1 >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument dmesg shows: _cpu_up: attempt to bring up CPU 2 failed Signed-off-by: Andreas Herrmann <andreas.herrmann3@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | restore sigcontext is taking a DNA exception while restoring FP context from the user stack, during the sigreturn. Appended patch fixes it by doing clts() if the app doesn't touch FP during the signal handler execution. This will stop generating a DNA, during the fxrstor in the sigreturn. This improves 64-bit lat_sig numbers by ~30% on my core2 platform. Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* | x86 - 32-bit ptrace emulation mishandles 6th argChuck Ebbert2007-11-101-13/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ jdike - Pushing Chuck's patch - see http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/9/16/261 for some history and a test program. UML is also broken without this patch - its processes get SIGBUS from the corrupt 6th argument to mmap being interpretted as a file offset ] When the 32-bit vDSO is used to make a system call, the %ebp register for the 6th syscall arg has to be loaded from the user stack (where it's pushed by the vDSO user code). The native i386 kernel always does this before stopping for syscall tracing, so %ebp can be seen and modified via ptrace to access the 6th syscall argument. The x86-64 kernel fails to do this, presenting the stack address to ptrace instead. This makes the %rbp value seen by 64-bit ptrace of a 32-bit process, and the %ebp value seen by a 32-bit caller of ptrace, both differ from the native i386 behavior. This patch fixes the problem by putting the word loaded from the user stack into %rbp before calling syscall_trace_enter, and reloading the 6th syscall argument from there afterwards (so ptrace can change it). This makes the behavior match that of i386 kernels.

* | x86_64: ia32 ptrace THREAD_AREA fixRoland McGrath2007-11-101-8/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The addr argument to PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA and PTRACE_SET_THREAD_AREA is not a magic constant. It's derived from the segment register values being used, which are computed originally from the index used with set_thread_area. The value does not need to match what a native i386 kernel would accept. It needs to match the segment selectors that can actually be in use in this 32-bit process. The 64-bit ptrace support for PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA (normally used only on 32-bit processes) is correct, but the 32-bit emulation of ptrace is broken.
