When we enable DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC but do not enable PROVE_LOCKING and or LOCK_STAT, lock_alloc() and lock_release() turn into nops, even though we should be doing hlock checking (check=1). This causes a false warning and a lockdep self-disable. Rectify this. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

On 32-bit, "apic" is a __setup() param meaning it is parsed rather late in the game. Make it an early_param() for apic_printk() use by arch/x86/kernel/mpparse.c. On 64-bit, it already is an early_param(). Signed-off-by: Rene Herman <rene.herman@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

commit 11a62a05 turns some formerly nopped debugging printks in arch/x86/kernel/mppparse.c into regular ones. The one at the top of smp_scan_config() in particular also prints on !CONFIG_SMP/CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC kernels and UP machines without anything resembling MP tables which makes their lowly UP owners wonder... Turn the former Dprintk()s into apic_printk()s instead meaning that their printing is dependent on passing the apic=verbose (or =debug) command line param. On 32-bit, "apic" is a __setup() param which isn't early enough for this code and therefore needs a followup changing it into an early_param(). On 64-bit, it already is.

Nice debugging work. I'd suggest something like the attached (boot tested) patch as the simple fix for now. I expect the benefits from the less synchronized, multiple-in-flight-data global queue will still outweigh the costs of dynamic allocations. But if worst comes to worst then we just go back to a globally synchronous one-at-a-time implementation, but that would be pretty sad! Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

As pointed out and tracked by Yinghai Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com>: Dhaval Giani got: kernel BUG at arch/x86/kernel/io_apic_64.c:357! invalid opcode: 0000 [1] SMP CPU 24 ... his system (x3950) has 8 ioapic, irq > 256 This was caused by: commit 9b7dc567 Author: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Date: Fri May 2 20:10:09 2008 +0200 x86: unify interrupt vector defines The interrupt vector defines are copied 4 times around with minimal differences. Move them all into asm-x86/irq_vectors.h It appears that Thomas did not notice that x86_64 does something completely different when he merge irq_vectors.h We can solve this for 2.6.27 by simply reintroducing the old heuristic for setting NR_IRQS on x86_64 to a usable value, which trivially removes the regression. Long term it would be nice to harmonize the handling of ioapic interrupts of x86_32 and x86_64 so we don't have this kind of confusion. Dhaval Giani <dhaval@linux.vnet.ibm.com> tested an earlier version of this patch by YH which confirms simply increasing NR_IRQS fixes the problem. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

Having cpu_online_map change during assign_irq_vector can result in some really nasty and weird things happening. The one that bit me last time was accessing non existent per cpu memory for non existent cpus. This locking was removed in a sloppy x86_64 and x86_32 merge patch. Guys can we please try and avoid subtly breaking x86 when we are merging files together? Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

Expose the new lock protection lock. This can be used to annotate places where we take multiple locks of the same class and avoid deadlocks by always taking another (top-level) lock first.

Note that we still have the MAX_LOCK_DEPTH (48) limit to consider, so anything that spills that it still up shit creek.

Instead of using a per-rq lock class, use the regular nesting operations. However, take extra care with double_lock_balance() as it can release the already held rq->lock (and therefore change its nesting class). So what can happen is: spin_lock(rq->lock); // this rq subclass 0 double_lock_balance(rq, other_rq); // release rq // acquire other_rq->lock subclass 0 // acquire rq->lock subclass 1 spin_unlock(other_rq->lock); leaving you with rq->lock in subclass 1 So a subsequent double_lock_balance() call can try to nest a subclass 1 lock while already holding a subclass 1 lock. Fix this by introducing double_unlock_balance() which releases the other rq's lock, but also re-sets the subclass for this rq's lock to 0.

Back when .gitignore file was added to arch/powerpc/ in 06f2138e ([POWERPC] Add files build to .gitignore, 2006-11-26), there indeed was nothing tracked in the ignored hierarchy and ignoring everything made sense. But we have very many tracked files there these days, and having a higher level .gitignore that ignores everything is asking for future troubles.. This should have been part of b8b572e1 (powerpc: Move include files to arch/powerpc/include/asm, 2008-08-01).

The function htab_bolt_mapping() is used to create permanent mappings in the MMU hash table, for example, in order to create the linear mapping of vmemmap. It's also used by early boot ioremap (before mem_init_done). However, the way ioremap uses it is incorrect as it passes it the protection flags in the "linux PTE" form while htab_bolt_mapping() expects them in the hash table format. This is made more confusing by the fact that some of those flags are actually in the same position in both cases. This fixes it all by making htab_bolt_mapping() take normal linux protection flags instead, and use a little helper to convert them to htab flags. Callers can now use the usual PAGE_* definitions safely.

When we have an ISA memory hole (ie, a PCI window that allows us to generate PCI memory cycles at low PCI address) mixed with other resources using a different CPU <=> PCI mapping, we must not keep the ISA hole in the bridge resource list. If we do, things might start trying to allocate device resources in there and will get the PCI addresses wrong. This fixes it by arranging to remove the ISA memory hole resource in this case. This fixes various cases of PCMCIA breakage on PowerBooks using the MPC106 "grackle" bridge.
