* [PATCH] x86_64: GART DMA merging fixAndi Kleen2006-02-131-4/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't touch the non DMA members in the sg list in dma_map_sg in the IOMMU Some drivers (in particular ST) ran into problems because they reused the sg lists after passing them to pci_map_sg(). The merging procedure in the K8 GART IOMMU corrupted the state. This patch changes it to only touch the dma* entries during merging, but not the other fields. Approach suggested by Dave Miller.

* [PATCH] arch/x86_64/kernel/traps.c PTRACE_SINGLESTEP oopsJohn Blackwood2006-02-131-1/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We found a problem with x86_64 kernels with preemption enabled, where having multiple tasks doing ptrace singlesteps around the same time will cause the system to 'oops'. The problem seems that a task can get preempted out of the do_debug() processing while it is running on the DEBUG_STACK stack. If another task on that same cpu then enters do_debug() and uses the same per-cpu DEBUG_STACK stack, the previous preempted tasks's stack contents can be corrupted, and the system will oops when the preempted task is context switched back in again. The typical oops looks like the following: Unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffffffffae RIP: <ffffffff805452a1>{thread_return+34} PGD 103027 PUD 102429067 PMD 0 Oops: 0002 [1] PREEMPT SMP CPU 0 Modules linked in: Pid: 3786, comm: ssdd Not tainted 2.6.15.2 #1 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff805452a1>] <ffffffff805452a1>{thread_return+34} RSP: 0018:ffffffff80824058 EFLAGS: 000136c2 RAX: ffff81017e12cea0 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 00000000c0000100 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: ffff8100f7856e20 RDI: ffff81017e12cea0 RBP: 0000000000000046 R08: ffff8100f68a6000 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: ffff81017e12cea0 R12: ffff81000c2d53e8 R13: ffff81017f5b3be8 R14: ffff81000c0036e0 R15: 000001056cbfc899 FS: 00002aaaaaad9b00(0000) GS:ffffffff80883800(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: ffffffffffffffae CR3: 00000000f6fcf000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 Process ssdd (pid: 3786, threadinfo ffff8100f68a6000, task ffff8100f7856e20) Stack: ffffffff808240d8 ffffffff8012a84a ffff8100055f6c00 0000000000000020 0000000000000001 ffff81000c0036e0 ffffffff808240b8 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 Call Trace: <#DB> <ffffffff8012a84a>{try_to_wake_up+985} <ffffffff8012c0d3>{kick_process+87} <ffffffff8013b262>{signal_wake_up+48} <ffffffff8013b5ce>{specific_send_sig_info+179} <ffffffff80546abc>{_spin_unlock_irqrestore+27} <ffffffff8013b67c>{force_sig_info+159} <ffffffff801103a0>{do_debug+289} <ffffffff80110278>{sync_regs+103} <ffffffff8010ed9a>{paranoid_userspace+35} Unable to handle kernel paging request at 00007fffffb7d000 RIP: <ffffffff8010f2e4>{show_trace+465} PGD f6f25067 PUD f6fcc067 PMD f6957067 PTE 0 Oops: 0000 [2] PREEMPT SMP This patch disables preemptions for the task upon entry to do_debug(), before interrupts are reenabled, and then disables preemption before exiting do_debug(), after disabling interrupts.

It might be better to attempt to code a fix in entry.S around the code that calls do_debug(). Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] x86-64: Fix HPET timer on x460Chris McDermott2006-02-122-4/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [description from AK] The IBM Summit 3 chipset doesn't implement the HPET timer replacement option. Since the current Linux code relies on it use a mixed mode with both PIT for the interrupt and HPET counters for the time keeping. That was already implemented, but didn't work properly because it was still using the last interrupt offset in HPET. This resulted in x460 not booting. Fix this up by using the free running HPET counter. Shouldn't affect any other machine because they either use full HPET mode or no HPET at all. TBD needs a similar 32bit fix.

* [PATCH] fstatat64 supportUlrich Drepper2006-02-122-1/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The *at patches introduced fstatat and, due to inusfficient research, I used the newfstat functions generally as the guideline. The result is that on 32-bit platforms we don't have all the information needed to implement fstatat64. This patch modifies the code to pass up 64-bit information if __ARCH_WANT_STAT64 is defined. I renamed the syscall entry point to make this clear. Other archs will continue to use the existing code. On x86-64 the compat code is implemented using a new sys32_ function. this is what is done for the other stat syscalls as well. This patch might break some other archs (those which define __ARCH_WANT_STAT64 and which already wired up the syscall). Yet others might need changes to accomodate the compatibility mode. I really don't want to do that work because all this stat handling is a mess (more so in glibc, but the kernel is also affected). It should be done by the arch maintainers. I'll provide some stand-alone test shortly. Those who are eager could compile glibc and run 'make check' (no installation needed). The patch below has been tested on x86 and x86-64.

* [PATCH] x86_64: Fix the node cpumask of a cpu going downRavikiran G Thirumalai2006-02-081-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, x86_64 and ia64 arches do not clear the corresponding bits in the node's cpumask when a cpu goes down or cpu bring up is cancelled. This is buggy since there are pieces of common code where the cpumask is checked in the cpu down code path to decide on things (like in the slab down path). PPC does the right thing, but x86_64 and ia64 don't (This was the reason Sonny hit upon a slab bug during cpu offline on ppc and could not reproduce on other arches). This patch fixes it for x86_64. I won't attempt ia64 as I cannot test it. Credit for spotting this should go to Alok. (akpm: this was applied, then reverted. But it's OK now because we now use for_each_cpu() in the right places).

* [PATCH] x86_64: Let impossible CPUs point to reference per cpu dataAndi Kleen2006-02-051-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hack for 2.6.16. In 2.6.17 all code that uses NR_CPUs should be audited and changed to only touch possible CPUs. Don't mark the reference per cpu data init data (so it stays around after boot) and point all impossible CPUs to it. This way they reference some valid - although shared memory. Usually this is only initialization like INIT_LIST_HEADs and there won't be races because these CPUs never run. Still somewhat hackish.

* [PATCH] x86_64: Calibrate APIC timer using PM timerAndi Kleen2006-02-052-6/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On some broken motherboards (at least one NForce3 based AMD64 laptop) the PIT timer runs at a incorrect frequency. This patch adds a new option "apicpmtimer" that allows to use the APIC timer and calibrate it using the PMTimer. It requires the earlier patch that allows to run the main timer from the APIC. Specifying apicpmtimer implies apicmaintimer. The option defaults to off for now. I tested it on a few systems and the resulting APIC timer frequencies were usually a bit off, but always <1%, which should be tolerable. TBD figure out heuristic to enable this automatically on the affected systems TBD perhaps do it on all NForce3s or using DMI?

* [PATCH] x86_64: When allocation of merged SG lists fails in the IOMMU don't ↵Kevin VanMaren2006-02-051-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | merge [ AK: I redid Kevin's fix to be simpler, but the idea and original analysis of the problem is from Kevin] This avoid allocation failures on some SATA systems like Nvidia CK8 when the IOMMU gets fragmented. Modern SATA devices have quite large queues (128 entries) and the FS with ext2/3 is good enough now that it often passes whole 128 page sg lists down to the driver. These require 512K of continuous free space in the IOMMU aperture to map when merged. When the IOMMU is fragmented this could lead to spurious IO errors due to failing mappings. Short term fix is to just try to map the SG list again unmerged page by page - this way fragmentation doesn't matter anymore. The code for that was already there, but it just wasn't enabled for the merge case. According to Kevin at least the Nvidia device doesn't seem to benefit from merging much anyways, so the only slowdown is from trying to do an unnecessary merge attempt. Kevin plans to implement better fragmentation avoidance in the future, but that wouldn't be 2.6.16 material. TBD: should add some statistic counters to count how often that really happens.

The code has been optimized to simplify and eliminate duplicated code, CPU stack use has been decreased by optimizing function parameters and local variables, and naming conventions across the manager have been standardized for clarity and ease of maintenance (this includes function, parameter, variable, and struct/typedef names.) All Resource Manager dispatch and information tables have been moved to a single location for clarity and ease of maintenance. One new file was created, named "rsinfo.c". The ACPI return macros (return_ACPI_STATUS, etc.) have been modified to guarantee that the argument is not evaluated twice, making them less prone to macro side-effects. However, since there exists the possibility of additional stack use if a particular compiler cannot optimize them (such as in the debug generation case), the original macros are optionally available. Note that some invocations of the return_VALUE macro may now cause size mismatch warnings; the return_UINT8 and return_UINT32 macros are provided to eliminate these. (From Randy Dunlap) Implemented a new mechanism to enable debug tracing for individual control methods. A new external interface, acpi_debug_trace(), is provided to enable this mechanism. The intent is to allow the host OS to easily enable and disable tracing for problematic control methods. This interface can be easily exposed to a user or debugger interface if desired. See the file psxface.c for details. acpi_ut_callocate() will now return a valid pointer if a length of zero is specified - a length of one is used and a warning is issued. This matches the behavior of acpi_ut_allocate(). Signed-off-by: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

While the ACPI spec says nothing about the OS invoking _PDC multiple times, doing so with changing bits seems to hopelessly confuse the BIOS on multiple platforms up to and including crashing the system. Factor out the _PDC invocation so Linux invokes it only once. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5483 Signed-off-by: Venkatesh Pallipadi <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

Randomized mappings for 64bit just vary the normal mmap break by 1TB. I didn't bother implementing full flex mmap for 64bit because it shouldn't be needed there.
