2008-12-01mm: vmalloc fix lazy unmapping cache aliasingNick Piggin1-4/+16
Jim Radford has reported that the vmap subsystem rewrite was sometimes causing his VIVT ARM system to behave strangely (seemed like going into infinite loops trying to fault in pages to userspace). We determined that the problem was most likely due to a cache aliasing issue. flush_cache_vunmap was only being called at the moment the page tables were to be taken down, however with lazy unmapping, this can happen after the page has subsequently been freed and allocated for something else. The dangling alias may still have dirty data attached to it. The fix for this problem is to do the cache flushing when the caller has called vunmap -- it would be a bug for them to write anything else to the mapping at that point. That appeared to solve Jim's problems.

2008-12-01ocfs2: fix regression in ocfs2_read_blocks_sync()Mark Fasheh1-11/+4
We're panicing in ocfs2_read_blocks_sync() if a jbd-managed buffer is seen. At first glance, this seems ok but in reality it can happen. My test case was to just run 'exorcist'. A struct inode is being pushed out of memory but is then re-read at a later time, before the buffer has been checkpointed by jbd. This causes a BUG to be hit in ocfs2_read_blocks_sync().

This patch updates piix_broken_suspend() such that it can match such case. As the borked DMI data is a bit generic, matching many entries to make the match more specific is necessary.

2008-12-01IB/mlx4: Fix MTT leakage in resize CQJack Morgenstein1-0/+5
When resizing a CQ, MTTs associated with the old CQE buffer were not freed. As a result, if any app used resize CQ repeatedly, all MTTs were eventually exhausted, which led to all memory registration operations failing until the driver is reloaded. Once the RESIZE_CQ command returns successfully from FW, FW no longer accesses the old CQ buffer, so it is safe to deallocate the MTT entries used by the old CQ buffer. Finally, if the RESIZE_CQ command fails, the MTTs allocated for the new CQEs buffer also need to be de-allocated. This fixes <https://bugs.openfabrics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1416>.

2008-12-01powerpc: Fix system calls on Cell entered with XER.SO=1Paul Mackerras1-1/+7
It turns out that on Cell, on a kernel with CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING = y, if a program sets the SO (summary overflow) bit in the XER and then does a system call, the SO bit in CR0 will be set on return regardless of whether the system call detected an error. Since CR0.SO is used as the error indication from the system call, this means that all system calls appear to fail. The reason is that the workaround for the timebase bug on Cell uses a compare instruction. With CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING = y, the ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_ENTRY macro reads the timebase, so we end up doing a compare instruction, which copies XER.SO to CR0.SO. Since we were doing this in the system call entry patch after clearing CR0.SO but before saving the CR, this meant that the saved CR image had CR0.SO set if XER.SO was set on entry. This fixes it by moving the clearing of CR0.SO to after the ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_ENTRY call in the system call entry path.

2008-12-01powerpc/mpic: Don't reset affinity for secondary MPIC on bootArnd Bergmann1-2/+7
Kexec/kdump currently fails on the IBM QS2x blades when the kexec happens on a CPU other than the initial boot CPU. It turns out that this is the result of mpic_init trying to set affinity of each interrupt vector to the current boot CPU. As far as I can tell, the same problem is likely to exist on any secondary MPIC, because they have to deliver interrupts to the first output all the time. There are two potential solutions for this: either not set up affinity at all for secondary MPICs, or assume that a single CPU output is connected to the upstream interrupt controller and hardcode affinity to that per architecture. This patch implements the second approach, defaulting to the first output. Currently, all known secondary MPICs are routed to their upstream port using the first destination, so we hardcode that.

2008-12-01powerpc/cell/axon-msi: Retry on missing interruptArnd Bergmann1-5/+31
The MSI capture logic for the axon bridge can sometimes lose interrupts in case of high DMA and interrupt load, when it signals an MSI interrupt to the MPIC interrupt controller while we are already handling another MSI. Each MSI vector gets written into a FIFO buffer in main memory using DMA, and that DMA access is normally flushed by the actual interrupt packet on the IOIF. An MMIO register in the MSIC holds the position of the last entry in the FIFO buffer that was written. However, reading that position does not flush the DMA, so that we can observe stale data in the buffer. In a stress test, we have observed the DMA to arrive up to 14 microseconds after reading the register. This patch works around this problem by retrying the access to the FIFO buffer. We can reliably detect the conditioning by writing an invalid MSI vector into the FIFO buffer after reading from it, assuming that all MSIs we get are valid. After detecting an invalid MSI vector, we udelay(1) in the interrupt cascade for up to 100 times before giving up.

2008-12-01powerpc: Fix boot freeze on machine with empty memory nodeDave Hansen1-47/+75
I got a bug report about a distro kernel not booting on a particular machine. It would freeze during boot: > ... > Could not find start_pfn for node 1 > [boot]0015 Setup Done > Built 2 zonelists in Node order, mobility grouping on. Total pages: 123783 > Policy zone: DMA > Kernel command line: > [boot]0020 XICS Init > [boot]0021 XICS Done > PID hash table entries: 4096 (order: 12, 32768 bytes) > clocksource: timebase mult[7d0000] shift[22] registered > Console: colour dummy device 80x25 > console handover: boot [udbg0] -> real [hvc0] > Dentry cache hash table entries: 1048576 (order: 7, 8388608 bytes) > Inode-cache hash table entries: 524288 (order: 6, 4194304 bytes) > freeing bootmem node 0 I've reproduced this on 2.6.27.7. It is caused by commit 8f64e1f2d1e09267ac926e15090fd505c1c0cbcb ("powerpc: Reserve in bootmem lmb reserved regions that cross NUMA nodes"). The problem is that Jon took a loop which was (in pseudocode): for_each_node(nid) NODE_DATA(nid) = careful_alloc(nid); setup_bootmem(nid); reserve_node_bootmem(nid); and broke it up into: for_each_node(nid) NODE_DATA(nid) = careful_alloc(nid); setup_bootmem(nid); for_each_node(nid) reserve_node_bootmem(nid); The issue comes in when the 'careful_alloc()' is called on a node with no memory. It falls back to using bootmem from a previously-initialized node. But, bootmem has not yet been reserved when Jon's patch is applied. It gives back bogus memory (0xc000000000000000) and pukes later in boot. The following patch collapses the loop back together. It also breaks the mark_reserved_regions_for_nid() code out into a function and adds some comments. I think a huge part of introducing this bug is because for loop was too long and hard to read. The actual bug fix here is the: + if (end_pfn <= node->node_start_pfn || + start_pfn >= node_end_pfn) + continue; Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <dave@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2008-12-01powerpc: Fix IRQ assignment for some PCIe devicesAdhemerval Zanella1-2/+5
Currently, some PCIe devices on POWER6 machines do not get interrupts assigned correctly. The problem is that OF doesn't create an "interrupt" property for them. The fix is for of_irq_map_pci to fall back to using the value in the PCI interrupt-pin register in config space, as we do when there is no OF device-tree node for the device. I have verified that this works fine with a pair of Squib-E SAS adapter on a P6-570. Acked-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
