2008-02-23percpu: fix DEBUG_PREEMPT per_cpu checkingHugh Dickins
2.6.25-rc1 percpu changes broke CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT's per_cpu checking on several architectures. On s390, sparc64 and x86 it's been weakened to not checking at all; whereas on powerpc64 it's become too strict, issuing warnings from __raw_get_cpu_var in io_schedule and init_timer for example. Fix this by weakening powerpc's __my_cpu_offset to use the non-checking local_paca instead of get_paca (which itself contains such a check); and strengthening the generic my_cpu_offset to go the old slow way via smp_processor_id when CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT (debug_smp_processor_id is where all the knowledge of what's correct when lives).

2008-02-20[POWERPC] cell: fix spurious false return from spu_trap_data_{map,seg}Andre Detsch
At present, the __spufs_trap_data_map and __spu_trap_data_seq functions exit if spu->flags has the SPU_CONTEXT_SWITCH_ACTIVE set. This was resulting in suprious returns from these functions, as they may be legitimately called when we have this bit set. We only use it in these two sanity checks, so this change removes the flag completely. This fixes hangs in the page-fault path of SPE apps.

2008-02-08CONFIG_HIGHPTE vs. sub-page page tables.Martin Schwidefsky
Background: I've implemented 1K/2K page tables for s390. These sub-page page tables are required to properly support the s390 virtualization instruction with KVM. The SIE instruction requires that the page tables have 256 page table entries (pte) followed by 256 page status table entries (pgste). The pgstes are only required if the process is using the SIE instruction. The pgstes are updated by the hardware and by the hypervisor for a number of reasons, one of them is dirty and reference bit tracking. To avoid wasting memory the standard pte table allocation should return 1K/2K (31/64 bit) and 2K/4K if the process is using SIE. Problem: Page size on s390 is 4K, page table size is 1K or 2K. That means the s390 version for pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a struct page. Trouble is that with the CONFIG_HIGHPTE feature on x86 pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a pte either, since that would require more than 32 bit for the return value of pte_alloc_one (and the pte * would not be accessible since its not kmapped). Solution: The only solution I found to this dilemma is a new typedef: a pgtable_t. For s390 pgtable_t will be a (pte *) - to be introduced with a later patch. For everybody else it will be a (struct page *). The additional problem with the initialization of the ptl lock and the NR_PAGETABLE accounting is solved with a constructor pgtable_page_ctor and a destructor pgtable_page_dtor. The page table allocation and free functions need to call these two whenever a page table page is allocated or freed. pmd_populate will get a pgtable_t instead of a struct page pointer. To get the pgtable_t back from a pmd entry that has been installed with pmd_populate a new function pmd_pgtable is added. It replaces the pmd_page call in free_pte_range and apply_to_pte_range.

2008-02-08[POWERPC] Disable G5 NAP mode during SMU commands on U3Benjamin Herrenschmidt
It appears that with the U3 northbridge, if the processor is in NAP mode the whole time while waiting for an SMU command to complete, then the SMU will fail. It could be related to the weird backward mechanism the SMU uses to get to system memory via i2c to the northbridge that doesn't operate properly when the said bridge is in napping along with the CPU. That is on U3 at least, U4 doesn't seem to be affected. This didn't show before NO_HZ as the timer wakeup was enough to make it work it seems, but that is no longer the case. This fixes it by disabling NAP mode on those machines while an SMU command is in flight.

2008-02-07Sanitize the type of struct user.u_ar0H. Peter Anvin
struct user.u_ar0 is defined to contain a pointer offset on all architectures in which it is defined (all architectures which define an a.out format except SPARC.) However, it has a pointer type in the headers, which is pointless -- <asm/user.h> is not exported to userspace, and it just makes the code messy. Redefine the field as "unsigned long" (which is the same size as a pointer on all Linux architectures) and change the setting code to user offsetof() instead of hand-coded arithmetic.

Since we have mfdcri() and mtdcri() as macros, we can't use constructions, such as "mtdcri(base, reg, mfdcri(base, reg) | val)". In this case the mfdcri() stuff is not evaluated first. It's evaluated inside the mtdcri() macro and we have the dcr_ind_lock spinlock acquired twice.

This moves the ability to scale cputime into generic code. This allows us to fix the issue in kernel/timer.c (noticed by Balbir) where we could only add an unscaled value to the scaled utime/stime. This adds a cputime_to_scaled function. As before, the POWERPC version does the scaling based on the last SPURR/PURR ratio calculated. The generic and s390 (only other arch to implement asm/cputime.h) versions are both NOPs. Also moves the SPURR and PURR snapshots closer.

2008-02-05maps4: rework TASK_SIZE macrosDave Hansen
The following replaces the earlier patches sent. It should address David Rientjes's comments, and has been compile tested on all the architectures that it touches, save for parisc. For the /proc/<pid>/pagemap code[1], we need to able to query how much virtual address space a particular task has. The trick is that we do it through /proc and can't use TASK_SIZE since it references "current" on some arches. The process opening the /proc file might be a 32-bit process opening a 64-bit process's pagemap file. x86_64 already has a TASK_SIZE_OF() macro: #define TASK_SIZE_OF(child) ((test_tsk_thread_flag(child, TIF_IA32)) ? IA32_PAGE_OFFSET : TASK_SIZE64) I'd like to have that for other architectures. So, add it for all the architectures that actually use "current" in their TASK_SIZE. For the others, just add a quick #define in sched.h to use plain old TASK_SIZE. 1. http://www.linuxworld.com/news/2007/042407-kernel.html - MIPS portion from Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix mips build] Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Acked-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-02-05timerfd: new timerfd APIDavide Libenzi
This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch: int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags); int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags, const struct itimerspec *utmr, struct itimerspec *otmr); int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr); The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd. The "clockid" parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME. The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not NULL). The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit is set in the "flags" parameter. Otherwise it's a relative time. The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or {0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet. Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are supported (with the same interface). Here's a simple test program I used to exercise the new timerfd APIs: http://www.xmailserver.org/timerfd-test2.c [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style cleanups] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix ia64 build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix m68k build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix mips build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix alpha, arm, blackfin, cris, m68k, s390, sparc and sparc64 builds] [heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com: fix s390] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix powerpc build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix sparc64 more] Signed-off-by: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk-manpages@gmx.net> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk-manpages@gmx.net> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-01-30POWERPC: use generic per cputravis@sgi.com
Powerpc has a way to determine the address of the per cpu area of the currently executing processor via the paca and the array of per cpu offsets is avoided by looking up the per cpu area from the remote paca's (copying x86_64).

2008-01-30modules: fold percpu_modcopy into module.ctravis@sgi.com
percpu_modcopy() is defined multiple times in arch files. However, the only user is module.c. Put a static definition into module.c and remove the definitions from the arch files. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-01-30percpu: move arch XX_PER_CPU_XX definitions into linux/percpu.htravis@sgi.com
- Special consideration for IA64: Add the ability to specify arch specific per cpu flags - remove .data.percpu attribute from DEFINE_PER_CPU for non-smp case. The arch definitions are all the same. So move them into linux/percpu.h. We cannot move DECLARE_PER_CPU since some include files just include asm/percpu.h to avoid include recursion problems.

This defines the new standard arch_has_single_step macro. It makes the existing set_single_step and clear_single_step entry points global, and renames them to the new standard names user_enable_single_step and user_disable_single_step, respectively.
