linux-toradex.git/arch/arm/kernel, branch v3.3.5 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules ARM: 7406/1: hotplug: copy the affinity mask when forcefully migrating IRQs 2012-05-07T15:53:24+00:00 Will Deacon will.deacon@arm.com 2012-04-27T11:56:24+00:00 d2375bc5f69b8a76b3b706c92d90b5d772dc4c97 commit 5e7371ded05adfcfcee44a8bc070bfc37979b8f2 upstream. When a CPU is hotplugged off, we migrate any IRQs currently affine to it away and onto another online CPU by calling the irq_set_affinity function of the relevant interrupt controller chip. This function returns either IRQ_SET_MASK_OK or IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY, to indicate whether irq_data.affinity was updated. If we are forcefully migrating an interrupt (because the affinity mask no longer identifies any online CPUs) then we should update the IRQ affinity mask to reflect the new CPU set. Failure to do so can potentially leave /proc/irq/n/smp_affinity identifying only offline CPUs, which may confuse userspace IRQ balancing daemons. This patch updates migrate_one_irq to copy the affinity mask when the interrupt chip returns IRQ_SET_MASK_OK after forcefully changing the affinity of an interrupt.

commit 5e7371ded05adfcfcee44a8bc070bfc37979b8f2 upstream.

When a CPU is hotplugged off, we migrate any IRQs currently affine to it
away and onto another online CPU by calling the irq_set_affinity
function of the relevant interrupt controller chip. This function
returns either IRQ_SET_MASK_OK or IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY, to indicate
whether irq_data.affinity was updated.

If we are forcefully migrating an interrupt (because the affinity mask
no longer identifies any online CPUs) then we should update the IRQ
affinity mask to reflect the new CPU set. Failure to do so can
potentially leave /proc/irq/n/smp_affinity identifying only offline
CPUs, which may confuse userspace IRQ balancing daemons.

This patch updates migrate_one_irq to copy the affinity mask when
the interrupt chip returns IRQ_SET_MASK_OK after forcefully changing the
affinity of an interrupt.

ARM: 7354/1: perf: limit sample_period to half max_period in non-sampling mode 2012-03-07T09:40:48+00:00 Will Deacon will.deacon@arm.com 2012-03-06T16:33:17+00:00 5727347180ebc6b4a866fcbe00dcb39cc03acb37 On ARM, the PMU does not stop counting after an overflow and therefore IRQ latency affects the new counter value read by the kernel. This is significant for non-sampling runs where it is possible for the new value to overtake the previous one, causing the delta to be out by up to max_period events. Commit a737823d ("ARM: 6835/1: perf: ensure overflows aren't missed due to IRQ latency") attempted to fix this problem by allowing interrupt handlers to pass an overflow flag to the event update function, causing the overflow calculation to assume that the counter passed through zero when going from prev to new. Unfortunately, this doesn't work when overflow occurs on the perf_task_tick path because we have the flag cleared and end up computing a large negative delta. This patch removes the overflow flag from armpmu_event_update and instead limits the sample_period to half of the max_period for non-sampling profiling runs.

Current ARM local timer code registers CPUFREQ notifiers even in case
the twd_timer_setup() isn't called. That seems to be wrong and
would eventually lead to kernel crash on the CPU frequency transitions
on the SOCs where the local timer doesn't exist or broken because of
hardware BUG. Fix it by testing twd_evt and *__this_cpu_ptr(twd_evt).

The issue was observed with v3.3-rc3 and building an OMAP2+ kernel
on OMAP3 SOC which doesn't have TWD.

ARM: 7322/1: Print BUG instead of undefined instruction on BUG_ON() 2012-02-09T16:25:37+00:00 Stephen Boyd sboyd@codeaurora.org 2012-02-07T18:42:33+00:00 bdf800c4fceb6d8dbe65471d214eb44a61f5bfc9 The ARM kernel uses undefined instructions to implement BUG/BUG_ON(). This leads to problems where people don't read one line above the Oops message and see the "kernel BUG at ..." message and so they wrongly assume the kernel has hit an undefined instruction. Instead of printing: Internal error: Oops - undefined instruction: 0 [#1] PREEMPT SMP print Internal error: Oops - BUG: 0 [#1] PREEMPT SMP This should prevent people from thinking the BUG_ON was an undefined instruction when it was actually intentional.

The ARM kernel uses undefined instructions to implement
BUG/BUG_ON(). This leads to problems where people don't read one
line above the Oops message and see the "kernel BUG at ..."
message and so they wrongly assume the kernel has hit an
undefined instruction.

Instead of printing:

 Internal error: Oops - undefined instruction: 0 [#1] PREEMPT SMP

print

 Internal error: Oops - BUG: 0 [#1] PREEMPT SMP

This should prevent people from thinking the BUG_ON was an
undefined instruction when it was actually intentional.
