2008-02-11[IA64] Fix build for sim_defconfigTony Luck
Commit bdc807871d58285737d50dc6163d0feb72cb0dc2 broke the build for this config because the sim_defconfig selects CONFIG_HZ=250 but include/asm-ia64/param.h has an ifdef for the simulator to force HZ to 32. So we ended up with a kernel/timeconst.h set for HZ=250 ... which then failed the check for the right HZ value and died with: Drop the #ifdef magic from param.h and make force CONFIG_HZ=32 directly for the simulator.

2008-02-08[IA64] Synchronize kernel RSE to user-space and backPetr Tesarik
This is base kernel patch for ptrace RSE bug. It's basically a backport from the utrace RSE patch I sent out several weeks ago. please review. when a thread is stopped (ptraced), debugger might change thread's user stack (change memory directly), and we must avoid the RSE stored in kernel to override user stack (user space's RSE is newer than kernel's in the case). To workaround the issue, we copy kernel RSE to user RSE before the task is stopped, so user RSE has updated data. we then copy user RSE to kernel after the task is resummed from traced stop and kernel will use the newer RSE to return to user.

2008-02-08CONFIG_HIGHPTE vs. sub-page page tables.Martin Schwidefsky
Background: I've implemented 1K/2K page tables for s390. These sub-page page tables are required to properly support the s390 virtualization instruction with KVM. The SIE instruction requires that the page tables have 256 page table entries (pte) followed by 256 page status table entries (pgste). The pgstes are only required if the process is using the SIE instruction. The pgstes are updated by the hardware and by the hypervisor for a number of reasons, one of them is dirty and reference bit tracking. To avoid wasting memory the standard pte table allocation should return 1K/2K (31/64 bit) and 2K/4K if the process is using SIE. Problem: Page size on s390 is 4K, page table size is 1K or 2K. That means the s390 version for pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a struct page. Trouble is that with the CONFIG_HIGHPTE feature on x86 pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a pte either, since that would require more than 32 bit for the return value of pte_alloc_one (and the pte * would not be accessible since its not kmapped). Solution: The only solution I found to this dilemma is a new typedef: a pgtable_t. For s390 pgtable_t will be a (pte *) - to be introduced with a later patch. For everybody else it will be a (struct page *). The additional problem with the initialization of the ptl lock and the NR_PAGETABLE accounting is solved with a constructor pgtable_page_ctor and a destructor pgtable_page_dtor. The page table allocation and free functions need to call these two whenever a page table page is allocated or freed. pmd_populate will get a pgtable_t instead of a struct page pointer. To get the pgtable_t back from a pmd entry that has been installed with pmd_populate a new function pmd_pgtable is added. It replaces the pmd_page call in free_pte_range and apply_to_pte_range.

2008-02-07Sanitize the type of struct user.u_ar0H. Peter Anvin
struct user.u_ar0 is defined to contain a pointer offset on all architectures in which it is defined (all architectures which define an a.out format except SPARC.) However, it has a pointer type in the headers, which is pointless -- <asm/user.h> is not exported to userspace, and it just makes the code messy. Redefine the field as "unsigned long" (which is the same size as a pointer on all Linux architectures) and change the setting code to user offsetof() instead of hand-coded arithmetic.

2008-02-05maps4: rework TASK_SIZE macrosDave Hansen
The following replaces the earlier patches sent. It should address David Rientjes's comments, and has been compile tested on all the architectures that it touches, save for parisc. For the /proc/<pid>/pagemap code[1], we need to able to query how much virtual address space a particular task has. The trick is that we do it through /proc and can't use TASK_SIZE since it references "current" on some arches. The process opening the /proc file might be a 32-bit process opening a 64-bit process's pagemap file. x86_64 already has a TASK_SIZE_OF() macro: #define TASK_SIZE_OF(child) ((test_tsk_thread_flag(child, TIF_IA32)) ? IA32_PAGE_OFFSET : TASK_SIZE64) I'd like to have that for other architectures. So, add it for all the architectures that actually use "current" in their TASK_SIZE. For the others, just add a quick #define in sched.h to use plain old TASK_SIZE. 1. http://www.linuxworld.com/news/2007/042407-kernel.html - MIPS portion from Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix mips build] Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Acked-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-01-30ia64: on UP percpu variables are not small memory modelIngo Molnar
Tony says: | The CONFIG_SMP=n path in ia64 makes quite radical changes ... rather | than putting all the per-cpu stuff into the top 64K of address space | and providing a per-cpu TLB mapping for that range to a different | physical address ... it just makes all the per-cpu stuff link as ordinary | variables in .data. the new generic percpu code got confused about this as PER_CPU_ATTRIBUTES was defined even on UP, so it picked up that small memory model - which was not possible to get linked. The right fix is to only define that on SMP. This resolved the build failures in my cross-compiling environment. also link these variables into the .percpu section even on UP - some assembly code has offset dependencies.

Aviod TLB flush IPIs during C3 states by voluntary leave_mm() before entering C3. The performance impact of TLB flush on C3 should not be significant with respect to C3 wakeup latency. Also, CPUs tend to flush TLB in hardware while in C3 anyways. On a 8 logical CPU system, running make -j2, the number of tlbflush IPIs goes down from 40 per second to ~ 0. Total number of interrupts during the run of this workload was ~1200 per second, which makes it ~3% savings in wakeups. There was no measurable performance or power impact however.

2007-10-19remove unused flush_tlb_pgtablesBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Nobody uses flush_tlb_pgtables anymore, this patch removes all remaining traces of it from all archs.

2007-10-17increase AT_VECTOR_SIZE to terminate saved_auxv properlyOlaf Hering
include/asm-powerpc/elf.h has 6 entries in ARCH_DLINFO. fs/binfmt_elf.c has 14 unconditional NEW_AUX_ENT entries and 2 conditional NEW_AUX_ENT entries. So in the worst case, saved_auxv does not get an AT_NULL entry at the end. The saved_auxv array must be terminated with an AT_NULL entry. Make the size of mm_struct->saved_auxv arch dependend, based on the number of ARCH_DLINFO entries.

2007-10-17Remove dma_cache_(wback|inv|wback_inv) functionsRalf Baechle
dma_cache_(wback|inv|wback_inv) were the earliest attempt on a generalized cache managment API for I/O purposes. Originally it was basically the raw MIPS low level cache API exported to the entire world. The API has suffered from a lack of documentation, was not very widely used unlike it's more modern brothers and can easily be replaced by dma_cache_sync. So remove it rsp. turn the surviving bits back into an arch private API, as discussed on linux-arch.

2007-10-17Add vmcoreinfoKen'ichi Ohmichi
This patch set frees the restriction that makedumpfile users should install a vmlinux file (including the debugging information) into each system. makedumpfile command is the dump filtering feature for kdump. It creates a small dumpfile by filtering unnecessary pages for the analysis. To distinguish unnecessary pages, it needs a vmlinux file including the debugging information. These days, the debugging package becomes a huge file, and it is hard to install it into each system. To solve the problem, kdump developers discussed it at lkml and kexec-ml. As the result, we reached the conclusion that necessary information for dump filtering (called "vmcoreinfo") should be embedded into the first kernel file and it should be accessed through /proc/vmcore during the second kernel. (http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0707.0/1806.html) Dan Aloni created the patch set for the above implementation. (http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0707.1/1053.html) And I updated it for multi architectures and memory models.
