2010-08-26x86, iommu: Make all IOMMU's detection routines return a value.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
We return 1 if the IOMMU has been detected. Zero or an error number if we failed to find it. This is in preperation of using the IOMMU_INIT so that we can detect whether an IOMMU is present. I have not tested this for regression on Calgary, nor on AMD Vi chipsets as I don't have that hardware. CC: Muli Ben-Yehuda <muli@il.ibm.com> CC: "Jon D. Mason" <jdmason@kudzu.us> CC: "Darrick J.

2010-08-26x86, iommu: Add IOMMU_INIT macros, .iommu_table section, and ↵Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
iommu_table_entry structure This patch set adds a mechanism to "modularize" the IOMMUs we have on X86. Currently the count of IOMMUs is up to six and they have a complex relationship that requires careful execution order. 'pci_iommu_alloc' does that today, but most folks are unhappy with how it does it. This patch set addresses this and also paves a mechanism to jettison unused IOMMUs during run-time. For details that sparked this, please refer to: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/8/2/282 The first solution that comes to mind is to convert wholesale the IOMMU detection routines to be called during initcall time frame. Unfortunately that misses the dependency relationship that some of the IOMMUs have (for example: for AMD-Vi IOMMU to work, GART detection MUST run first, and before all of that SWIOTLB MUST run). The second solution would be to introduce a registration call wherein the IOMMU would provide its detection/init routines and as well on what MUST run before it. That would work, except that the 'pci_iommu_alloc' which would run through this list, is called during mem_init. This means we don't have any memory allocator, and it is so early that we haven't yet started running through the initcall_t list. This solution borrows concepts from the 2nd idea and from how MODULE_INIT works. A macro is provided that each IOMMU uses to define it's detect function and early_init (before the memory allocate is active), and as well what other IOMMU MUST run before us. Since most IOMMUs depend on having SWIOTLB run first ("pci_swiotlb_detect") a convenience macro to depends on that is also provided. This macro is similar in design to MODULE_PARAM macro wherein we setup a .iommu_table section in which we populate it with the values that match a struct iommu_table_entry. During bootup we will sort through the array so that the IOMMUs that MUST run before us are first elements in the array. And then we just iterate through them calling the detection routine and if appropiate, the init routines.

2010-08-19x86, hotplug: Serialize CPU hotplug to avoid bringup concurrency issuesBorislav Petkov
When testing cpu hotplug code on 32-bit we kept hitting the "CPU%d: Stuck ??" message due to multiple cores concurrently accessing the cpu_callin_mask, among others. Since these codepaths are not protected from concurrent access due to the fact that there's no sane reason for making an already complex code unnecessarily more complex - we hit the issue only when insanely switching cores off- and online - serialize hotplugging cores on the sysfs level and be done with it.

2010-08-18x86-32: Separate 1:1 pagetables from swapper_pg_dirJoerg Roedel
This patch fixes machine crashes which occur when heavily exercising the CPU hotplug codepaths on a 32-bit kernel. These crashes are caused by AMD Erratum 383 and result in a fatal machine check exception. Here's the scenario: 1. On 32-bit, the swapper_pg_dir page table is used as the initial page table for booting a secondary CPU. 2. To make this work, swapper_pg_dir needs a direct mapping of physical memory in it (the low mappings). By adding those low, large page (2M) mappings (PAE kernel), we create the necessary conditions for Erratum 383 to occur. 3. Other CPUs which do not participate in the off- and onlining game may use swapper_pg_dir while the low mappings are present (when leave_mm is called). For all steps below, the CPU referred to is a CPU that is using swapper_pg_dir, and not the CPU which is being onlined. 4. The presence of the low mappings in swapper_pg_dir can result in TLB entries for addresses below __PAGE_OFFSET to be established speculatively. These TLB entries are marked global and large. 5. When the CPU with such TLB entry switches to another page table, this TLB entry remains because it is global. 6. The process then generates an access to an address covered by the above TLB entry but there is a permission mismatch - the TLB entry covers a large global page not accessible to userspace. 7. Due to this permission mismatch a new 4kb, user TLB entry gets established. Further, Erratum 383 provides for a small window of time where both TLB entries are present. This results in an uncorrectable machine check exception signalling a TLB multimatch which panics the machine. There are two ways to fix this issue: 1. Always do a global TLB flush when a new cr3 is loaded and the old page table was swapper_pg_dir. I consider this a hack hard to understand and with performance implications 2. Do not use swapper_pg_dir to boot secondary CPUs like 64-bit does. This patch implements solution 2. It introduces a trampoline_pg_dir which has the same layout as swapper_pg_dir with low_mappings. This page table is used as the initial page table of the booting CPU. Later in the bringup process, it switches to swapper_pg_dir and does a global TLB flush. This fixes the crashes in our test cases. -v2: switch to swapper_pg_dir right after entering start_secondary() so that we are able to access percpu data which might not be mapped in the trampoline page table.

2010-08-17Make do_execve() take a const filename pointerDavid Howells
Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles correctly on ARM: arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to. This is because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to copy_strings_kernel(). A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel(). do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as const should be fine. Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match. This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.
