This patch fixes the debug code which runs during the inventory scan on machines with PAT firmware. Additionally print out the relationship between the detected logical CPU number and it's physical location and physical cpu number. This leads to information which can be used to feed numa-structures in the kernel in later patches. An example output is from my single-CPU (2 cores) C8000 machine is: Logical CPU #0 is physical cpu #0 at 0xffff0000ffff15, hpa 0xfffffffffe780000 Logical CPU #1 is physical cpu #1 at 0xffff0000ffff15, hpa 0xfffffffffe781000 Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

Since kernel 3.9 we re-enable interrupts quite late due to commit c207a76b ("parisc: only re-enable interrupts if we need to schedule or deliver signals when returning to userspace"). At that time the parisc kernel had no dedicated IRQ stack, and this commit prevented kernel stack overflows. But since commit 200c8804 ("parisc: implement irq stacks") we now have an IRQ stack, so we may be safe now. And when CONFIG_DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW=y is enabled, we can even check at runtime for overflows. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

The sync_cmos_clock function in kernel/time/ntp.c first tries to update the internal clock of the cpu by calling the "update_persistent_clock64" architecture specific function. If this returns -ENODEV, it then tries to update an external RTC using "rtc_set_ntp_time". On the mips architecture, the weak implementation of the underlying function would return 0 if it wasn't overridden. This meant that the sync_cmos_clock function would never try to update an external RTC (if both CONFIG_GENERIC_CMOS_UPDATE and CONFIG_RTC_SYSTOHC are configured) Returning -ENODEV instead, means that an external RTC will be tried.

Thomas Falcon authored
This patch is based on an earlier one submitted by Jon Maxwell with the following commit message: "We recently encountered a bug where a few customers using ibmveth on the same LPAR hit an issue where a TCP session hung when large receive was enabled. Closer analysis revealed that the session was stuck because the one side was advertising a zero window repeatedly. We narrowed this down to the fact the ibmveth driver did not set gso_size which is translated by TCP into the MSS later up the stack. The MSS is used to calculate the TCP window size and as that was abnormally large, it was calculating a zero window, even although the sockets receive buffer was completely empty." We rely on the Virtual I/O Server partition in a pseries environment to provide the MSS through the TCP header checksum field. The stipulation is that users should not disable checksum offloading if rx packet aggregation is enabled through VIOS. Some firmware offerings provide the MSS in the RX buffer. This is signalled by a bit in the RX queue descriptor.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimmLinus Torvalds authored
Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams: "Several fixes to the DSM (ACPI device specific method) marshaling implementation. I consider these urgent enough to send for 4.9 consideration since they fix the kernel's handling of ARS (Address Range Scrub) commands. Especially for platforms without machine-check-recovery capabilities, successful execution of ARS commands enables the platform to potentially break out of an infinite reboot problem if a media error is present in the boot path. There is also a one line fix for a device-dax read-only mapping regression. Commits 9a901f54 ("acpi, nfit: fix extended status translations for ACPI DSMs") and 325896ff ("device-dax: fix private mapping restriction, permit read-only") are true regression fixes for changes introduced this cycle. Commit efda1b5d ("acpi, nfit, libnvdimm: fix / harden ars_status output length handling") fixes the kernel's handling of zero-length results, this never would have worked in the past, but we only just recently discovered a BIOS implementation that emits this arguably spec non-compliant result. The remaining two commits are additional fall out from thinking through the implications of a zero / truncated length result of the ARS Status command. In order to mitigate the risk that these changes introduce yet more regressions they are backstopped by a new unit test in commit a7de92da ("tools/testing/nvdimm: unit test acpi_nfit_ctl()") that mocks up inputs to acpi_nfit_ctl()" * 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: device-dax: fix private mapping restriction, permit read-only tools/testing/nvdimm: unit test acpi_nfit_ctl() acpi, nfit: fix bus vs dimm confusion in xlat_status acpi, nfit: validate ars_status output buffer size acpi, nfit, libnvdimm: fix / harden ars_status output length handling acpi, nfit: fix extended status translations for ACPI DSMs

At bootup we run measurements to calculate the best threshold for when we should be using full TLB flushes instead of just flushing a specific amount of TLB entries. This performance test is run over the kernel text segment. But running this TLB performance test on the kernel text segment turned out to crash some SMP machines when the kernel text pages were mapped as huge pages. To avoid those crashes this patch simply skips this test on some SMP machines and calculates an optimal threshold based on the maximum number of available TLB entries and number of online CPUs. On a technical side, this seems to happen: The TLB measurement code uses flush_tlb_kernel_range() to flush specific TLB entries with a page size of 4k (pdtlb 0(sr1,addr)). On UP systems this purge instruction seems to work without problems even if the pages were mapped as huge pages. But on SMP systems the TLB purge instruction is broadcasted to other CPUs. Those CPUs then crash the machine because the page size is not as expected. C8000 machines with PA8800/PA8900 CPUs were not affected by this problem, because the required cache coherency prohibits to use huge pages at all. Sadly I didn't found any documentation about this behaviour, so this finding is purely based on testing with phyiscal SMP machines (A500-44 and J5000, both were 2-way boxes).

This function sets req->r_locked_dir which is supposed to indicate to ceph_fill_trace that the parent's i_rwsem is locked for write. Unfortunately, there is no guarantee that the dir will be locked when d_revalidate is called, so we really don't want ceph_fill_trace to do any dcache manipulation from this context. Clear req->r_locked_dir since it's clearly not safe to do that. What we really want to know with d_revalidate is whether the dentry still points to the same inode. ceph_fill_trace installs a pointer to the inode in req->r_target_inode, so we can just compare that to d_inode(dentry) to see if it's the same one after the lookup. Also, since we aren't generally interested in the parent here, we can switch to using a GETATTR to hint that to the MDS, which also means that we only need to reserve one cap. Finally, just remove the d_unhashed check. That's really outside the purview of a filesystem's d_revalidate. If the thing became unhashed while we're checking it, then that's up to the VFS to handle anyway.
