2007-07-19define new percpu interface for shared dataFenghua Yu1-4/+3
per cpu data section contains two types of data. One set which is exclusively accessed by the local cpu and the other set which is per cpu, but also shared by remote cpus. In the current kernel, these two sets are not clearely separated out. This can potentially cause the same data cacheline shared between the two sets of data, which will result in unnecessary bouncing of the cacheline between cpus. One way to fix the problem is to cacheline align the remotely accessed per cpu data, both at the beginning and at the end. Because of the padding at both ends, this will likely cause some memory wastage and also the interface to achieve this is not clean. This patch: Moves the remotely accessed per cpu data (which is currently marked as ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp) into a different section, where all the data elements are cacheline aligned. And as such, this differentiates the local only data and remotely accessed data cleanly.

2007-07-19mm: fault feedback #2Nick Piggin1-11/+12
This patch completes Linus's wish that the fault return codes be made into bit flags, which I agree makes everything nicer. This requires requires all handle_mm_fault callers to be modified (possibly the modifications should go further and do things like fault accounting in handle_mm_fault -- however that would be for another patch).

2007-07-17kallsyms: make KSYM_NAME_LEN include space for trailing '\0'Tejun Heo1-1/+1
KSYM_NAME_LEN is peculiar in that it does not include the space for the trailing '\0', forcing all users to use KSYM_NAME_LEN + 1 when allocating buffer. This is nonsense and error-prone. Moreover, when the caller forgets that it's very likely to subtly bite back by corrupting the stack because the last position of the buffer is always cleared to zero. This patch increments KSYM_NAME_LEN by one and updates code accordingly. * off-by-one bug in asm-powerpc/kprobes.h::kprobe_lookup_name() macro is fixed. * Where MODULE_NAME_LEN and KSYM_NAME_LEN were used together, MODULE_NAME_LEN was treated as if it didn't include space for the trailing '\0'.

2007-07-16generic bug: use show_regs() instead of dump_stack()Heiko Carstens1-1/+1
The current generic bug implementation has a call to dump_stack() in case a WARN_ON(whatever) gets hit. Since report_bug(), which calls dump_stack(), gets called from an exception handler we can do better: just pass the pt_regs structure to report_bug() and pass it to show_regs() in case of a warning. This will give more debug informations like register contents, etc... In addition this avoids some pointless lines that dump_stack() emits, since it includes a stack backtrace of the exception handler which is of no interest in case of a warning. E.g. on s390 the following lines are currently always present in a stack backtrace if dump_stack() gets called from report_bug(): [<000000000001517a>] show_trace+0x92/0xe8) [<0000000000015270>] show_stack+0xa0/0xd0 [<00000000000152ce>] dump_stack+0x2e/0x3c [<0000000000195450>] report_bug+0x98/0xf8 [<0000000000016cc8>] illegal_op+0x1fc/0x21c [<00000000000227d6>] sysc_return+0x0/0x10 Acked-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> Acked-by: Haavard Skinnemoen <hskinnemoen@atmel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@parisc-linux.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2007-06-12[PARISC] remove global_ack_eiemGrant Grundler1-18/+8
Kudos to Thibaut Varene for spotting the (mis)use of appropriately named global_ack_eiem. This took a long time to figure out and both insight from myself, Kyle McMartin, and James Bottomley were required to narrow down which bit of code could have this race condition. The symptom was interrupts stopped getting delivered while some workload was generating IO interrupts on two different CPUs. One of the interrupt sources would get masked off and stay unmasked. Problem was global_ack_eiem was accessed with read/modified/write sequence and not protected by a spinlock. PA-RISC doesn't need a global ack flag though. External Interrupts are _always_ delivered to a single CPU (except for "global broadcast interrupt" which AFAIK currently is not used.) So we don't have to worry about any given IRQ vector getting delivered to more than one CPU. Tested on a500 and rp34xx boxen. rsync to/from gsyprf11 (a500) would lock up the box since NIC (tg3) interrupt and SCSI (sym2) were on "opposite" CPUs (2 CPU system). Put them on the same CPU or apply this patch and 10GB of data would rsync completely. Please apply the following critical patch. thanks, grant Signed-off-by: Grant Grundler <grundler@parisc-linux.org> Acked-by: Thibaut VARENE <T-Bone@parisc-linux.org> Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@parisc-linux.org>

2007-05-21Detach sched.h from mm.hAlexey Dobriyan2-2/+2
First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock() mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why. This patch a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly. e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were getting them indirectly Net result is: a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if they don't need sched.h b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files: on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files, after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

2007-04-28libata/IDE: remove combined mode quirkJeff Garzik1-1/+0
Both old-IDE and libata should be able handle all controllers and devices found using normal resource reservation methods. This eliminates the awful, low-performing split-driver configuration where old-IDE drove the PATA portion of a PCI device, in PIO-only mode, and libata drove the SATA portion of the /same/ PCI device, in DMA mode. Typically vendors would ship SATA hard drive / PATA optical configuration, which would lend itself to slow (PIO-only) CD-ROM performance. For Intel users running in combined mode, it is now wholly dependent on your driver choice (potentially link order, if you compile both drivers in) whether old-IDE or libata will drive your hardware. In either case, you will get full performance from both SATA and PATA ports now, without having to pass a kernel command line parameter. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

2007-02-17[PARISC] Compat signal fixes for 64-bit pariscCarlos O'Donell Jr1-10/+11
In copy_siginfo_from_user32: Use compat_uptr_t. Use compat_ptr(). In copy_siginfo_to_user32: Use compat_int_t. Use ptr_to_compat(). The sigevent_t structure has a 64-bit si_ptr field that when copied to a 32-bit si_ptr will copy the wrong word. For the compat copy use the si_int field instead.
