This matters to any sort of device that is wired to one of the CPU interrupt pins on an SMP system. Typically the scenario is most easily triggered with the count/compare timer interrupt where the same interrupt number and thus irq_desc is used on each processor. CPU A CPU B do_IRQ() generic_handle_irq() handle_level_irq() spin_lock(desc_lock) set IRQ_INPROGRESS spin_unlock(desc_lock) do_IRQ() generic_handle_irq() handle_level_irq() spin_lock(desc_lock) IRQ_INPROGRESS set => bail out spin_lock(desc_lock) clear IRQ_INPROGRESS spin_unlock(desc_lock) In case of the cp0 compare interrupt this means the interrupt will be acked and not handled or re-armed on CPU b, so there won't be any timer interrupt until the count register wraps around. With kernels 2.6.20 ... 2.6.23 we usually were lucky that things were just working right on VSMP because the count registers are synchronized on bootup so it takes something that disables interrupts for a long time on one processor to trigger this one. For scenarios where an interrupt is multicasted or broadcasted over several CPUs the existing code was safe and the fix will break it. There is no way to know in the interrupt controller code because it is abstracted from the platform code. I think we do not have such a setup currently, so this should be ok.

We have no guarantee by the generic time code that the timer is stopped when the ->next_event method is called. Modifying the Timer Initial Count register while the timer is enabled has UNPREDICTABLE effect according to the BCM1250/BCM1125/BCM1125H User Manual. So stop the timer before reprogramming. This is a paranoia fix; no ill effects have been observed previously. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

For the old minimum of a single tick a value of zero would be programmed into the init value register which in the BCM1250/BCM1125/BCM1125H User Manual in the Timer Special Cases section is documented to have UNPREDICTABLE effect. Observable sympthoms of this bug were hangs of several seconds on the console during bootup and later if both dyntick and highres timer options were activated. In theory contiguous mode of the timers is also affected but in an act of hopeless lack of realism I'll assume nobody will ever configure a KERNEL for HZ > 500kHz but if so I leave that to evolution to sort out.

Shadow register support would not possibly have worked on multicore systems. The support code for it was also depending not on MIPS R2 but VSMP or SMTC kernels even though it makes perfect sense with UP kernels. SR sets are a scarce resource and the expected usage pattern is that users actually hardcode the register set numbers in their code. So fix the allocator by ditching it. Move the remaining CPU probe bits into the generic CPU probe. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

This avoids us executing an mfc0 c0_count instruction on processors which don't have but also on certain R4000 and R4400 versions where reading from the count register just in the very moment when its value equals c0_compare will result in the timer interrupt getting lost. There is still a number of users of get_cycles remaining outside the arch code: crypto/tcrypt.c: start = get_cycles(); crypto/tcrypt.c: end = get_cycles(); crypto/tcrypt.c: start = get_cycles(); crypto/tcrypt.c: end = get_cycles(); crypto/tcrypt.c: start = get_cycles(); crypto/tcrypt.c: end = get_cycles(); drivers/char/hangcheck-timer.c: return get_cycles(); drivers/char/hangcheck-timer.c: printk("Hangcheck: Using get_cycles().\n"); drivers/char/random.c: sample.cycles = get_cycles(); drivers/input/joystick/analog.c:#define GET_TIME(x) do { x = get_cycles(); } include/linux/arcdevice.h: _x = get_cycles(); \ include/linux/arcdevice.h: _y = get_cycles(); \ mm/slub.c: if (!s->defrag_ratio || get_cycles() % 1024 > s->defrag_ratio) mm/slub.c: p += 64 + (get_cycles() & 0xff) * sizeof(void *); Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

cpu_down() code is ok wrt sched_idle_next() placing the 'idle' task not at the beginning of the queue. So get rid of activate_idle_task() and make use of activate_task() instead. It is the same as activate_task(), except for the update_rq_clock(rq) call that is redundant.

Grant Wilson has reported rare SCHED_FAIR_USER crashes on his quad-core system, which crashes can only be explained via runqueue corruption. there is a narrow SMP race in __set_task_cpu(): after ->cpu is set up to a new value, task_rq_lock(p, ...) can be successfuly executed on another CPU. We must ensure that updates of per-task data have been completed by this moment. this bug has been hiding in the Linux scheduler for an eternity (we never had any explicit barrier for task->cpu in set_task_cpu() - so the bug was introduced in 2.5.1), but only became visible via set_task_cfs_rq() being accidentally put after the task->cpu update. It also probably needs a sufficiently out-of-order CPU to trigger.

Suppose that the SCHED_FIFO task does switch_uid(new_user); Now, p->se.cfs_rq and p->se.parent both point into the old user_struct->tg because sched_move_task() doesn't call set_task_cfs_rq() for !fair_sched_class case. Suppose that old user_struct/task_group is freed/reused, and the task does sched_setscheduler(SCHED_NORMAL); __setscheduler() sets fair_sched_class, but doesn't update ->se.cfs_rq/parent which point to the freed memory. This means that check_preempt_wakeup() doing while (!is_same_group(se, pse)) { se = parent_entity(se); pse = parent_entity(pse); } may OOPS in a similar way if rq->curr or p did something like above. Perhaps we need something like the patch below, note that __setscheduler() can't do set_task_cfs_rq(). Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Currently the scheduler checks for PF_VCPU to decide if this timeslice has to be accounted as guest time. On s390 host interrupts are not disabled during guest execution. This causes theses interrupts to be accounted as guest time if CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is set. Solution is to check if an interrupt triggered account_system_time. As the tick is timer interrupt based, we have to subtract hardirq_offset. I tested the patch on s390 with CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING and on x86_64. Seems to work.

The sysfs interface to DMI data takes care to not make the system serial number and UUID world-readable, presumably due to privacy concerns. For consistency, we should not let the eeprom driver export these same strings to the world on Sony Vaio laptops. Instead, only make them readable by root, as we already do for BIOS passwords.

Let i2c-dev deal properly with new-style i2c clients. Instead of considering them always busy, it needs to check wether a driver is bound to them or not. This is still not completely correct, as the client could become busy later, but the same problem already existed before new-style clients were introduced. We'll want to fix it someday.

This adds some "how does this work" comments to the i2c-dev driver, plus separators between the three main components: - The parallel list of i2c_adapters ("i2c_dev_list"), each of which gets a "struct i2c_dev" and a /dev/i2c-X character special file. - An i2cdev_driver gets adapter add/remove notifications, which are used to maintain that list of adapters. - Special file operations, which let userspace talk either directly to the adapter (for i2c_msg operations) or through cached addressing info using an anonymous i2c_client (never registered anywhere). Plus there's the usual module load/unload record keeping. After making sense of this code, I think that the anonymous i2c_client is pretty shady. But since it's never registered, using this code with a system set up for "new style" I2C drivers is no more complicated than always using the I2C_SLAVE_FORCE ioctl (instead of I2C_SLAVE).

This reverts commit 7fb7ac24. Heikki Orsila reports that it causes a regression: "Doing nc host port < /dev/zero on a sending machine (not skge) to an skge machine that is receiving: nc -l -p port >/dev/null with ~60 MiB/s speed, causes the interface go malfunct. A slow transfer doesn't cause a problem." See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9321 for some more information. There is a workaround (also reported by Heikki): "After some fiddling, I noticed that not changing the register write order on patch: + skge_write32(hw, RB_ADDR(q, RB_END), end); skge_write32(hw, RB_ADDR(q, RB_WP), start); skge_write32(hw, RB_ADDR(q, RB_RP), start); - skge_write32(hw, RB_ADDR(q, RB_END), end); fixes the visible effect.. Possibly not the root cause of the problem, but changing the order back fixes networking here." but that has yet to be ack'ed or tested more widely, so the whole problem-causing commit gets reverted until this is resolved properly.

The original meaning of the old test (p->state > TASK_STOPPED) was "not dead", since it was before TASK_TRACED existed and before the state/exit_state split. It was a wrong correction in commit 14bf01bb to make this test for TASK_TRACED instead. It should have been changed when TASK_TRACED was introducted and again when exit_state was introduced.
