      [PATCH] arch/i386/pci/mmconfig.c tlb flush fix · 8d1c4819
      OGAWA Hirofumi authored
      We use the fixmap for accessing pci config space in pci_mmcfg_read/write().
      The problem is in pci_exp_set_dev_base(). It is caching a last
      accessed address to avoid calling set_fixmap_nocache() whenever
      pci_mmcfg_read/write() is used.
      
        static inline void pci_exp_set_dev_base(int bus, int devfn)
        {
      	u32 dev_base = base | (bus << 20) | (devfn << 12);
      	if (dev_base != mmcfg_last_accessed_device) {
      		mmcfg_last_accessed_device = dev_base;
      		set_fixmap_nocache(FIX_PCIE_MCFG, dev_base);
      	}
        }
      
                  cpu0                                        cpu1
        ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
          pci_mmcfg_read("device-A")
              pci_exp_set_dev_base()
                  set_fixmap_nocache()
                                                    pci_mmcfg_read("device-B")
                                                        pci_exp_set_dev_base()
                                                            set_fixmap_nocache()
          pci_mmcfg_read("device-B")
              pci_exp_set_dev_base()
                  /* doesn't flush tlb */
      
      But if cpus accessed the above order, the second pci_mmcfg_read() on
      cpu0 doesn't flush the TLB, because "mmcfg_last_accessed_device" is
      device-B.  So, second pci_mmcfg_read() on cpu0 accesses a device-A via
      a previous TLB cache. This problem became the cause of several strange
      behavior.
      
      This patches fixes this situation by adds "mmcfg_last_accessed_cpu" check.
      
      [ Alternatively, we could make a per-cpu mapping area or something. Not
        that it's probably worth it, but if we wanted to avoid all locking and
        instead just disable preemption, that would be the way to go. --Linus ]

          [PATCH] suspend: don't change cpus_allowed for task initiating the suspend
      
      because with this change 'error' is not initialized to 0 anymore, if
      there are no other online CPUs. (i.e. if the system is single-CPU).
      
      the fix is the initialize it to 0. The really weird thing is that my
      version of gcc does not warn about this non-initialized variable
      situation ...
      
      (also fix the kernel printk in the error branch, it was missing a
       newline)

      [UDP]: Fix reversed logic in udp_get_port(). · 5c668704
      David S. Miller authored
      When this code was converted to use sk_for_each() the
      logic for the "best hash chain length" code was reversed,
      breaking everything.
      
      The original code was of the form:
      
      			size = 0;
      			do {
      				if (++size >= best_size_so_far)
      					goto next;
      			} while ((sk = sk->next) != NULL);
      			best_size_so_far = size;
      			best = result;
      		next:;
      
      and this got converted into:
      
      			sk_for_each(sk2, node, head)
      				if (++size < best_size_so_far) {
      					best_size_so_far = size;
      					best = result;
      				}
      
      Which does something very very different from the original.

      [TCP]: Fix ambiguity in the `before' relation. · 9a036b9c
      Gerrit Renker authored
      While looking at DCCP sequence numbers, I stumbled over a problem with
      the following definition of before in tcp.h:
      
      static inline int before(__u32 seq1, __u32 seq2)
      {
              return (__s32)(seq1-seq2) < 0;
      }
      
      Problem: This definition suffers from an an ambiguity, i.e. always
      
                 before(a, (a + 2^31) % 2^32)) = 1
                 before((a + 2^31) % 2^32), a) = 1
      
               In text: when the difference between a and b amounts to 2^31,
               a is always considered `before' b, the function can not decide.
               The reason is that implicitly 0 is `before' 1 ... 2^31-1 ... 2^31
      
      Solution: There is a simple fix, by defining before in such a way that
                0 is no longer `before' 2^31, i.e. 0 `before' 1 ... 2^31-1
                By not using the middle between 0 and 2^32, before can be made
                unambiguous.
                This is achieved by testing whether seq2-seq1 > 0 (using signed
                32-bit arithmetic).
      
      I attach a patch to codify this. Also the `after' relation is basically
      a redefinition of `before', it is now defined as a macro after before.

      Back when the original NetLabel patches were being changed to use Netlink
      attributes correctly some code was accidentially dropped which set all of the

      is the mappings data in the kernel contains bogus mappings which always map to
      zero.  This patch restores the old/correct behavior by initializing the mapping

      [PATCH] build compile.h earlier · ef129412

      compile.h is created super-late in the build.  But proc_misc.c want to include
      it, and it's generally not sane to have a header file in include/linux be
      created at the end of the build: it's either not present or, worse, wrong for
      most of the build.
      
      So the patch arranges for compile.h to be built at the start of the build
      process.  It also consolidates the compile.h rules with those for version.h
      and utsname.h, so they all get built together.
      
      I hope.  My chances of having got this right are about 2%.

      [PATCH] sched: fix bad missed wakeups in the i386, x86_64, ia64, ACPI and APM idle code · 0888f06a
      Ingo Molnar authored
      Fernando Lopez-Lezcano reported frequent scheduling latencies and audio
      xruns starting at the 2.6.18-rt kernel, and those problems persisted all
      until current -rt kernels. The latencies were serious and unjustified by
      system load, often in the milliseconds range.
      
      After a patient and heroic multi-month effort of Fernando, where he
      tested dozens of kernels, tried various configs, boot options,
      test-patches of mine and provided latency traces of those incidents, the

      what is visible in this trace is that CPU#1 ran try_to_wake_up() for
      PID:5856, it placed PID:5856 on CPU#0's runqueue and ran resched_task()
      for CPU#0. But it decided to not send an IPI that no CPU - due to
      TS_POLLING. But CPU#0 never woke up after its NEED_RESCHED bit was set,
      and only rescheduled to PID:5856 upon the next lapic timer IRQ. The
      result was a 600+ usecs latency and a missed wakeup!
      
      the bug turned out to be an idle-wakeup bug introduced into the mainline
      kernel this summer via an optimization in the x86_64 tree:
      
          commit 495ab9c0
          Author: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
          Date:   Mon Jun 26 13:59:11 2006 +0200
      
          [PATCH] i386/x86-64/ia64: Move polling flag into thread_info_status
      
          During some profiling I noticed that default_idle causes a lot of
          memory traffic. I think that is caused by the atomic operations
          to clear/set the polling flag in thread_info. There is actually
          no reason to make this atomic - only the idle thread does it
          to itself, other CPUs only read it. So I moved it into ti->status.
      
      the problem is this type of change:
      
              if (!hlt_counter && boot_cpu_data.hlt_works_ok) {
      -               clear_thread_flag(TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG);
      +               current_thread_info()->status &= ~TS_POLLING;
                      smp_mb__after_clear_bit();
                      while (!need_resched()) {
                              local_irq_disable();
      
      this changes clear_thread_flag() to an explicit clearing of TS_POLLING.
      clear_thread_flag() is defined as:
      
              clear_bit(flag, &ti->flags);
      
      and clear_bit() is a LOCK-ed atomic instruction on all x86 platforms:
      
        static inline void clear_bit(int nr, volatile unsigned long * addr)
        {
                __asm__ __volatile__( LOCK_PREFIX
                        "btrl %1,%0"
      
      hence smp_mb__after_clear_bit() is defined as a simple compile barrier:
      
        #define smp_mb__after_clear_bit()       barrier()
      
      but the explicit TS_POLLING clearing introduced by the patch:
      
      +               current_thread_info()->status &= ~TS_POLLING;
      
      is not an atomic op! So the clearing of the TS_POLLING bit is freely
      reorderable with the reading of the NEED_RESCHED bit - and both now
      reside in different memory addresses.
      
      CPU idle wakeup very much depends on ordered memory ops, the clearing of
      the TS_POLLING flag must always be done before we test need_resched()
      and hit the idle instruction(s). [Symmetrically, the wakeup code needs
      to set NEED_RESCHED before it tests the TS_POLLING flag, so memory
      ordering is paramount.]
      
      Fernando's dual-core Athlon64 system has a sufficiently advanced memory
      ordering model so that it triggered this scenario very often.
      
      ( And it also turned out that the reason why these latencies never
        triggered on my testsystems is that i routinely use idle=poll, which
        was the only idle variant not affected by this bug. )
      
      The fix is to change the smp_mb__after_clear_bit() to an smp_mb(), to
      act as an absolute barrier between the TS_POLLING write and the
      NEED_RESCHED read. This affects almost all idling methods (default,
      ACPI, APM), on all 3 x86 architectures: i386, x86_64, ia64.

      [PATCH] jbd: wait for already submitted t_sync_datalist buffer to complete · 6f5a9da1
      Hisashi Hifumi authored
      In the current jbd code, if a buffer on BJ_SyncData list is dirty and not
      locked, the buffer is refiled to BJ_Locked list, submitted to the IO and
      waited for IO completion.
      
      But the fsstress test showed the case that when a buffer was already
      submitted to the IO just before the buffer_dirty(bh) check, the buffer was
      not waited for IO completion.
      
      Following patch solves this problem.  If it is assumed that a buffer is
      submitted to the IO before the buffer_dirty(bh) check and still being
      written to disk, this buffer is refiled to BJ_Locked list.

      [PATCH] increase CARDBUS_MEM_SIZE · fe0e5c4d
      Andrew Morton authored
      Linus sayeth:
      
      Google knows everything, and finds, on MS own site no less:
      
        "Windows 2000 default resources:
      
         One 4K memory window
      
         One 2 MB memory window
      
         Two 256-byte I/O windows"
      
      which is clearly utterly bogus and insufficient. But Microsoft apparently
      realized this, and:
      
        "Windows XP default resources:
      
         Because one memory window of 4K and one window of 2 MB are not
         sufficient for CardBus controllers in many configurations, Windows XP
         allocates larger memory windows to CardBus controllers where possible.
         However, resource windows are static (that is, the operating system
         does not dynamically allocate larger memory windows if new devices
         appear.) Under Windows XP, CardBus controllers will be assigned the
         following resources:
      
         One 4K memory window, as in Windows 2000
      
         64 MB memory, if that amount of memory is available. If 64 MB is not
         available the controller will receive 32 MB; if 32 MB is not available,
         the controller will receive 16 MB; if 16 MB is not available, the
         bridge will receive 8 MB; and so on down to a minimum assignment of 1
         MB in configurations where memory is too constrained for the operating
         system to provide a larger window.
      
         Two 256-byte I/O windows"
      
      So I think we have our answer. Windows uses one 4k window, and one 64MB
      window. And they are no more dynamic than we are (we _could_ try to do it
      dynamically, but let's face it, it's fairly painful to dynamically expand
      PCI bus resources - you may need to reprogram everything up to the root,
      so it would be absolutely crazy to do that unless you have some serious
      masochistic tendencies).
      
      So let's just increase our default value to 64M too.

      [PATCH] ptrace: Fix EFL_OFFSET value according to i386 pda changes · 8701ea95
      Jeremy Fitzhardinge authored
      The PDA patches introduced a bug in ptrace: it reads eflags from the wrong
      place on the target's stack, but writes it back to the correct place.  The
      result is a corrupted eflags, which is most visible when it turns interrupts
      off unexpectedly.
      
      This patch fixes this by making the ptrace code a little less fragile.  It
      changes [gs]et_stack_long to take a straightforward byte offset into struct
      pt_regs, rather than requiring all callers to do a sizeof(struct pt_regs)
      offset adjustment.  This means that the eflag's offset (EFL_OFFSET) on the
      target stack can be simply computed with offsetof().
