2008-08-15x86: silence mmconfig printkDave Jones
There's so much broken mmconfig hardware/bios'es out there, that classing this as an error seems a little extreme. Lower its priority to KERN_INFO so that it isn't so noisy when booting with 'quiet' Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-08-15x86, msr: fix NULL pointer deref due to msr_open on nonexistent CPUsDarrick J. Wong
msr_open tests for someone trying to open a device for a nonexistent CPU. However, the function always returns 0, not ret like it should, hence userspace can BUG the kernel trivially. This bug was introduced by the cdev lock_kernel pushdown patch last May. The BUG can be reproduced with these commands: # mknod fubar c 202 8 <-- pick a number less than NR_CPUS that is not the number of an online CPU # cat fubar Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

2008-08-14x86: hpet: workaround SB700 BIOSThomas Gleixner
AMD SB700 based systems with spread spectrum enabled use a SMM based HPET emulation to provide proper frequency setting. The SMM code is initialized with the first HPET register access and takes some time to complete. During this time the config register reads 0xffffffff. We check for max. 1000 loops whether the config register reads a non 0xffffffff value to make sure that HPET is up and running before we go further. A counting loop is safe, as the HPET access takes thousands of CPU cycles. On non SB700 based machines this check is only done once and has no side effects.

2008-08-14x86: resurrect proper handling of maxcpus= kernel option (v2)Max Krasnyansky
For some reason we had two parsers registered for maxcpus=. One in init/main.c and another in arch/x86/smpboot.c. So I nuked the one in arch/x86. Also 64-bit kernels used to handle maxcpus= as documented in Documentation/cpu-hotplug.txt. CPUs with 'id > maxcpus' are initialized but not booted. 32-bit version for some reason ignored them even though all the infrastructure for booting them later is there. In the current mainline both 64 and 32 bit versions are broken. This patch restores the correct behaviour. I've tested x86_64 version on 4- and 8- way Core2 and 2-way Opteron based machines. Various config combinations SMP, !SMP, CPU_HOTPLUG, !CPU_HOTPLUG. Booted with maxcpus=1 and maxcpus=4, etc. Everything is working as expected. So far we've received two reports from different people confirming that 32-bit version also works fine, both on dual core laptops and 16way server machines.

2008-08-13x86: fix setup code crashes on my old 486 boxJoerg Roedel
yesterday I tried to reactivate my old 486 box and wanted to install a current Linux with latest kernel on it. But it turned out that the latest kernel does not boot because the machine crashes early in the setup code. After some debugging it turned out that the problem is the query_ist() function. If this interrupt with that function is called the machine simply locks up. It looks like a BIOS bug. Looking for a workaround for this problem I wrote the attached patch. It checks for the CPUID instruction and if it is not implemented it does not call the speedstep BIOS function. As far as I know speedstep should be available since some Pentium earliest. Alan Cox observed that it's available since the Pentium II, so cpuid levels 4 and 5 can be excluded altogether. H. Peter Anvin cleaned up the code some more: > Right in concept, but I dislike the implementation (duplication of the > CPU detect code we already have). Could you try this patch and see if > it works for you? which, with a small modification to fix a build error with it the resulting kernel boots on my machine.

2008-08-12Make ioctl.h compatible with userlandMichael Abbott
The attached patch seems to already exist in a number of branches -- it keeps popping up on Google for me, and is certainly already in Debian -- but is strangely absent from mainstream. The problem appears to be that the patched file ends up as part of the target toolchain, but unfortunately the gcc constant folding doesn't appear to eliminate the __invalid_size_argument_for_IOC value early enough. Certainly compiling C++ programs which use _IO... macros as constants fails without this patch.

2008-08-12docsrc: build Documentation/ sourcesRandy Dunlap
Currently source files in the Documentation/ sub-dir can easily bit-rot since they are not generally buildable, either because they are hidden in text files or because there are no Makefile rules for them. This needs to be fixed so that the source files remain usable and good examples of code instead of bad examples. Add the ability to build source files that are in the Documentation/ dir. Add to Kconfig as "BUILD_DOCSRC" config symbol. Use "CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=1 make ..." to build objects from the Documentation/ sources. Or enable BUILD_DOCSRC in the *config system. However, this symbol depends on HEADERS_CHECK since the header files need to be installed (for userspace builds).

2008-08-12radeonfb: fix accel engine hangsDavid Miller
Some chips appear to have the 2D engine hang during screen redraw, typically in a sequence of copyarea operations. This appear to be solved by adding a flush of the engine destination pixel cache and waiting for the engine to be idle before issuing the accel operation. The performance impact seems to be fairly small. Here is a trace on an RV370 (PCI device ID 0x5b64), it records the RBBM_STATUS register, then the source x/y, destination x/y, and width/height used for the copy: ---------------------------------------- radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[00000140] src[210:70] dst[210:60] wh[a0:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[00000140] src[2b8:70] dst[2b8:60] wh[88:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[00000140] src[348:70] dst[348:60] wh[40:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[80020140] src[390:70] dst[390:60] wh[88:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[8002613f] src[40:80] dst[40:70] wh[28:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[80026139] src[a8:80] dst[a8:70] wh[38:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[80026133] src[e8:80] dst[e8:70] wh[80:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[8002612d] src[170:80] dst[170:70] wh[30:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[80026127] src[1a8:80] dst[1a8:70] wh[8:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[80026121] src[1b8:80] dst[1b8:70] wh[88:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[8002611b] src[248:80] dst[248:70] wh[68:10] ---------------------------------------- When things are going fine the copies complete before the next ROP is even issued, but all of a sudden the 2D unit becomes active (bit 17 in RBBM_STATUS) and the FIFO retry (bit 13) and FIFO pipeline busy (bit 14) are set as well. The FIFO begins to backup until it becomes full. What happens next is the radeon_fifo_wait() times out, and we access the chip illegally leading to a bus error which usually wedges the box. None of this makes it to the console screen, of course :-) radeon_fifo_wait() should be modified to reset the accelerator when this timeout happens instead of programming the chip anyways. ---------------------------------------- radeonfb: FIFO Timeout !

This will only happen if you 1) VC switch or 2) run "consolechars" or 3) unblank the screen. This seems to happen because until a redraw_screen() the screen scrolling method used by fbcon is not finalized yet. I've seen this with other fb drivers too. So if all you do is boot straight into X you will never see this bug on the relevant chips. Signed-off-by: David S.

spinlocks v2 [Andrew this should replace the previous version which did not check the returns from the region prepare for errors. This has been tested by us and Gerald and it looks good. Bah, while reviewing the locking based on your previous email I spotted that we need to check the return from the vma_needs_reservation call for allocation errors. Here is an updated patch to correct this.

2008-08-12hugetlbfs: allocate structures for reservation tracking outside of spinlocksAndy Whitcroft
In the normal case, hugetlbfs reserves hugepages at map time so that the pages exist for future faults. A struct file_region is used to track when reservations have been consumed and where. These file_regions are allocated as necessary with kmalloc() which can sleep with the mm->page_table_lock held. This is wrong and triggers may-sleep warning when PREEMPT is enabled. Updates to the underlying file_region are done in two phases. The first phase prepares the region for the change, allocating any necessary memory, without actually making the change. The second phase actually commits the change. This patch makes use of this by checking the reservations before the page_table_lock is taken; triggering any necessary allocations. This may then be safely repeated within the locks without any allocations being required. Credit to Mel Gorman for diagnosing this failure and initial versions of the patch.
