2014-01-15x86, apic, kexec: Add disable_cpu_apicid kernel parameterHATAYAMA Daisuke
Add disable_cpu_apicid kernel parameter. To use this kernel parameter, specify an initial APIC ID of the corresponding CPU you want to disable. This is mostly used for the kdump 2nd kernel to disable BSP to wake up multiple CPUs without causing system reset or hang due to sending INIT from AP to BSP. Kdump users first figure out initial APIC ID of the BSP, CPU0 in the 1st kernel, for example from /proc/cpuinfo and then set up this kernel parameter for the 2nd kernel using the obtained APIC ID. However, doing this procedure at each boot time manually is awkward, which should be automatically done by user-land service scripts, for example, kexec-tools on fedora/RHEL distributions. This design is more flexible than disabling BSP in kernel boot time automatically in that in kernel boot time we have no choice but referring to ACPI/MP table to obtain initial APIC ID for BSP, meaning that the method is not applicable to the systems without such BIOS tables. One assumption behind this design is that users get initial APIC ID of the BSP in still healthy state and so BSP is uniquely kept in CPU0. Thus, through the kernel parameter, only one initial APIC ID can be specified. In a comparison with disabled_cpu_apicid, we use read_apic_id(), not boot_cpu_physical_apicid, because on some platforms, the variable is modified to the apicid reported as BSP through MP table and this function is executed with the temporarily modified boot_cpu_physical_apicid. As a result, disabled_cpu_apicid kernel parameter doesn't work well for apicids of APs. Fixing the wrong handling of boot_cpu_physical_apicid requires some reviews and tests beyond some platforms and it could take some time. The fix here is a kind of workaround to focus on the main topic of this patch.

2013-12-29x86: Export x86 boot_params to sysfsDave Young
kexec-tools use boot_params for getting the 1st kernel hardware_subarch, the kexec kernel EFI runtime support also needs to read the old efi_info from boot_params. Currently it exists in debugfs which is not a good place for such infomation. Per HPA, we should avoid "sploit debugfs". In this patch /sys/kernel/boot_params are exported, also the setup_data is exported as a subdirectory. kexec-tools is using debugfs for hardware_subarch for a long time now so we're not removing it yet. Structure is like below: /sys/kernel/boot_params |__ data /* boot_params in binary*/ |__ setup_data | |__ 0 /* the first setup_data node */ | | |__ data /* setup_data node 0 in binary*/ | | |__ type /* setup_data type of setup_data node 0, hex string */ [snip] |__ version /* boot protocal version (in hex, "0x" prefixed)*/ Signed-off-by: Dave Young <dyoung@redhat.com> Acked-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Tested-by: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>

Old kexec-tools can not load new kernels. The reason is kexec-tools does not fill efi_info in x86 setup header previously, thus EFI failed to initialize. In new kexec-tools it will by default to fill efi_info and pass other EFI required infomation to 2nd kernel so kexec kernel EFI initialization can succeed finally. To prevent from breaking userspace, add a new xloadflags bit so kexec-tools can check the flag and switch to old logic.

It's an ugly hack working around a deadlock condition between driver core resume and block layer device removal paths through freezer which was made more reproducible by writeback being converted to workqueue some releases ago. The bug has nothing to do with libata but it's just an workaround which is easy to backport. After discussion, Rafael and I seem to agree that we don't really need kernel freezables - both kthread and workqueue. There are few specific workqueues which constitute PM operations and require freezing, which will be converted to use workqueue_set_max_active() instead. All other kernel freezer uses are planned to be removed, followed by the removal of kthread and workqueue freezer support, hopefully. Others are device-specific fixes.

Export fw_vendor, runtime and config table physical addresses to /sys/firmware/efi/{fw_vendor,runtime,config_table} because kexec kernels need them.

2013-12-17ACPI, APEI, EINJ: Changes to the ACPI/APEI/EINJ debugfs interfaceLuck, Tony
When I added support for ACPI5 I made the assumption that injected processor errors would just need to know the APICID, memory errors just the address and mask, and PCIe errors just the segment/bus/device/function. So I had the code check the type of injection and multiplex the "param1" value appropriately. This was not a good assumption :-( There are injection scenarios where we need to specify more than one of these items. E.g. injecting a cache error we need to specify an APICID of the cpu that owns the cache, and also an address (so that we can trip the error by accessing the address). Add a "flags" file to give the user direct access to specify which items are valid in the ACPI SET_ERROR_TYPE_WITH_ADDRESS structure. Also add new files param3 and param4 to hold all these values. For backwards compatability with old injection scripts we maintain the old behaviour if flags remains set at zero (or is reset to 0). Acked-by: Naveen N.

2013-12-16Documentation/memory-barriers.txt: Downgrade UNLOCK+BLOCKPaul E. McKenney
Historically, an UNLOCK+LOCK pair executed by one CPU, by one task, or on a given lock variable has implied a full memory barrier. In a recent LKML thread, the wisdom of this historical approach was called into question: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg65653.html, in part due to the memory-order complexities of low-handoff-overhead queued locks on x86 systems.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs Pull misc keyrings fixes from David Howells: "These break down into five sets: - A patch to error handling in the big_key type for huge payloads. If the payload is larger than the "low limit" and the backing store allocation fails, then big_key_instantiate() doesn't clear the payload pointers in the key, assuming them to have been previously cleared - but only one of them is. Unfortunately, the garbage collector still calls big_key_destroy() when sees one of the pointers with a weird value in it (and not NULL) which it then tries to clean up. - Three patches to fix the keyring type: * A patch to fix the hash function to correctly divide keyrings off from keys in the topology of the tree inside the associative array. This is only a problem if searching through nested keyrings - and only if the hash function incorrectly puts the a keyring outside of the 0 branch of the root node. * A patch to fix keyrings' use of the associative array. The __key_link_begin() function initially passes a NULL key pointer to assoc_array_insert() on the basis that it's holding a place in the tree whilst it does more allocation and stuff. This is only a problem when a node contains 16 keys that match at that level and we want to add an also matching 17th. This should easily be manufactured with a keyring full of keyrings (without chucking any other sort of key into the mix) - except for (a) above which makes it on average adding the 65th keyring. * A patch to fix searching down through nested keyrings, where any keyring in the set has more than 16 keyrings and none of the first keyrings we look through has a match (before the tree iteration needs to step to a more distal node). Test in keyutils test suite: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/keyutils.git/commit/?id=8b4ae963ed92523aea18dfbb8cab3f4979e13bd1 - A patch to fix the big_key type's use of a shmem file as its backing store causing audit messages and LSM check failures. This is done by setting S_PRIVATE on the file to avoid LSM checks on the file (access to the shmem file goes through the keyctl() interface and so is gated by the LSM that way). This isn't normally a problem if a key is used by the context that generated it - and it's currently only used by libkrb5.

Commit 89ce376c6bdc (drivers/net: Use of_match_ptr() macro in smc91x.c) added minimal device tree support to smc91x, but it's not working on many platforms because of the lack of some key configuration bits. Fix the issue by parsing the necessary configuration like the smc911x driver is doing. As most smc91x users seem to use 16-bit access, let's default to that if no reg-io-width is specified.
