2015-03-19sparc: Touch NMI watchdog when walking cpus and calling printkDavid Ahern1-0/+4
With the increase in number of CPUs calls to functions that dump output to console (e.g., arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace) can take a long time to complete. If IRQs are disabled eventually the NMI watchdog kicks in and creates more havoc. Avoid by telling the NMI watchdog everything is ok.

2014-08-11sparc64: Fix pcr_ops initialization and usage bugs.David S. Miller1-0/+3
Christopher reports that perf_event_print_debug() can crash in uniprocessor builds. The crash is due to pcr_ops being NULL. This happens because pcr_arch_init() is only invoked by smp_cpus_done() which only executes in SMP builds. init_hw_perf_events() is closely intertwined with pcr_ops being setup properly, therefore: 1) Call pcr_arch_init() early on from init_hw_perf_events(), instead of from smp_cpus_done(). 2) Do not hook up a PMU type if pcr_ops is NULL after pcr_arch_init(). 3) Move init_hw_perf_events to a later initcall so that it we will be sure to invoke pcr_arch_init() after all cpus are brought up. Finally, guard the one naked sequence of pcr_ops dereferences in __global_pmu_self() with an appropriate NULL check.

2014-06-23nmi: provide the option to issue an NMI back trace to every cpu but currentAaron Tomlin1-6/+12
Sometimes it is preferred not to use the trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() routine when one wants to avoid capturing a back trace for current. For instance if one was previously captured recently. This patch provides a new routine namely trigger_allbutself_cpu_backtrace() which offers the flexibility to issue an NMI to every cpu but current and capture a back trace accordingly. Patch x86 and sparc to support new routine.

2014-03-24sparc64: Make sure %pil interrupts are enabled during hypervisor yield.David S. Miller1-1/+3
In arch_cpu_idle() we must enable %pil based interrupts before potentially invoking the hypervisor cpu yield call. As per the Hypervisor API documentation for cpu_yield: Interrupts which are blocked by some mechanism other that pstate.ie (for example %pil) are not guaranteed to cause a return from this service. It seems that only first generation Niagara chips are hit by this bug. My best guess is that later chips implement this in hardware and wake up anyways from %pil events, whereas in first generation chips the yield is implemented completely in hypervisor code and requires %pil to be enabled in order to wake properly from this call.

2013-04-30dump_stack: unify debug information printed by show_regs()Tejun Heo1-0/+2
show_regs() is inherently arch-dependent but it does make sense to print generic debug information and some archs already do albeit in slightly different forms. This patch introduces a generic function to print debug information from show_regs() so that different archs print out the same information and it's much easier to modify what's printed. show_regs_print_info() prints out the same debug info as dump_stack() does plus task and thread_info pointers. * Archs which didn't print debug info now do. alpha, arc, blackfin, c6x, cris, frv, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m32r, metag, microblaze, mn10300, openrisc, parisc, score, sh64, sparc, um, xtensa * Already prints debug info. Replaced with show_regs_print_info(). The printed information is superset of what used to be there. arm, arm64, avr32, mips, powerpc, sh32, tile, unicore32, x86 * s390 is special in that it used to print arch-specific information along with generic debug info. Heiko and Martin think that the arch-specific extra isn't worth keeping s390 specfic implementation. Converted to use the generic version. Note that now all archs print the debug info before actual register dumps. An example BUG() dump follows. kernel BUG at /work/os/work/kernel/workqueue.c:4841! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 3.9.0-rc1-work+ #7 Hardware name: empty empty/S3992, BIOS 080011 10/26/2007 task: ffff88007c85e040 ti: ffff88007c860000 task.ti: ffff88007c860000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff8234a07e>] [<ffffffff8234a07e>] init_workqueues+0x4/0x6 RSP: 0000:ffff88007c861ec8 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: ffff88007c861fd8 RBX: ffffffff824466a8 RCX: 0000000000000001 RDX: 0000000000000046 RSI: 0000000000000001 RDI: ffffffff8234a07a RBP: ffff88007c861ec8 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000001 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: ffffffff8234a07a R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff88007dc00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: ffff88015f7ff000 CR3: 00000000021f1000 CR4: 00000000000007f0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Stack: ffff88007c861ef8 ffffffff81000312 ffffffff824466a8 ffff88007c85e650 0000000000000003 0000000000000000 ffff88007c861f38 ffffffff82335e5d ffff88007c862080 ffffffff8223d8c0 ffff88007c862080 ffffffff81c47760 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81000312>] do_one_initcall+0x122/0x170 [<ffffffff82335e5d>] kernel_init_freeable+0x9b/0x1c8 [<ffffffff81c47760>] ? rest_init+0x140/0x140 [<ffffffff81c4776e>] kernel_init+0xe/0xf0 [<ffffffff81c6be9c>] ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 [<ffffffff81c47760>] ? rest_init+0x140/0x140 ... v2: Typo fix in x86-32. v3: CPU number dropped from show_regs_print_info() as dump_stack_print_info() has been updated to print it. s390 specific implementation dropped as requested by s390 maintainers.

2012-10-26sparc64: Make montmul/montsqr/mpmul usable in 32-bit threads.David S. Miller1-19/+23
The Montgomery Multiply, Montgomery Square, and Multiple-Precision Multiply instructions work by loading a combination of the floating point and multiple register windows worth of integer registers with the inputs. These values are 64-bit. But for 32-bit userland processes we only save the low 32-bits of each integer register during a register spill. This is because the register window save area is in the user stack and has a fixed layout. Therefore, the only way to use these instruction in 32-bit mode is to perform the following sequence: 1) Load the top-32bits of a choosen integer register with a sentinel, say "-1". This will be in the outer-most register window. The idea is that we're trying to see if the outer-most register window gets spilled, and thus the 64-bit values were truncated. 2) Load all the inputs for the montmul/montsqr/mpmul instruction, down to the inner-most register window. 3) Execute the opcode. 4) Traverse back up to the outer-most register window. 5) Check the sentinel, if it's still "-1" store the results. Otherwise retry the entire sequence. This retry is extremely troublesome. If you're just unlucky and an interrupt or other trap happens, it'll push that outer-most window to the stack and clear the sentinel when we restore it. We could retry forever and never make forward progress if interrupts arrive at a fast enough rate (consider perf events as one example). So we have do limited retries and fallback to software which is extremely non-deterministic. Luckily it's very straightforward to provide a mechanism to let 32-bit applications use a 64-bit stack. Stacks in 64-bit mode are biased by 2047 bytes, which means that the lowest bit is set in the actual %sp register value. So if we see bit zero set in a 32-bit application's stack we treat it like a 64-bit stack. Runtime detection of such a facility is tricky, and cumbersome at best. For example, just trying to use a biased stack and seeing if it works is hard to recover from (the signal handler will need to use an alt stack, plus something along the lines of longjmp). Therefore, we add a system call to report a bitmask of arch specific features like this in a cheap and less hairy way. With help from Andy Polyakov. Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-10-12vfs: define struct filename and have getname() return itJeff Layton1-2/+2
getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to the string. For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled, we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not need to recopy it from userspace. This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it. Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes convenient. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Those two APIs were provided to optimize the calls of tick_nohz_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_enter() into a single irq disabled section. This way no interrupt happening in-between would needlessly process any RCU job. Now we are talking about an optimization for which benefits have yet to be measured. Let's start simple and completely decouple idle rcu and dyntick idle logics to simplify.

2011-12-11nohz: Allow rcu extended quiescent state handling seperately from tick stopFrederic Weisbecker1-2/+2
It is assumed that rcu won't be used once we switch to tickless mode and until we restart the tick. However this is not always true, as in x86-64 where we dereference the idle notifiers after the tick is stopped. To prepare for fixing this, add two new APIs: tick_nohz_idle_enter_norcu() and tick_nohz_idle_exit_norcu(). If no use of RCU is made in the idle loop between tick_nohz_enter_idle() and tick_nohz_exit_idle() calls, the arch must instead call the new *_norcu() version such that the arch doesn't need to call rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit(). Otherwise the arch must call tick_nohz_enter_idle() and tick_nohz_exit_idle() and also call explicitly: - rcu_idle_enter() after its last use of RCU before the CPU is put to sleep. - rcu_idle_exit() before the first use of RCU after the CPU is woken up.

2011-12-11nohz: Separate out irq exit and idle loop dyntick logicFrederic Weisbecker1-2/+2
The tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() function, which tries to delay the next timer tick as long as possible, can be called from two places: - From the idle loop to start the dytick idle mode - From interrupt exit if we have interrupted the dyntick idle mode, so that we reprogram the next tick event in case the irq changed some internal state that requires this action. There are only few minor differences between both that are handled by that function, driven by the ts->inidle cpu variable and the inidle parameter. The whole guarantees that we only update the dyntick mode on irq exit if we actually interrupted the dyntick idle mode, and that we enter in RCU extended quiescent state from idle loop entry only. Split this function into: - tick_nohz_idle_enter(), which sets ts->inidle to 1, enters dynticks idle mode unconditionally if it can, and enters into RCU extended quiescent state. - tick_nohz_irq_exit() which only updates the dynticks idle mode when ts->inidle is set (ie: if tick_nohz_idle_enter() has been called). To maintain symmetry, tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick() has been renamed into tick_nohz_idle_exit(). This simplifies the code and micro-optimize the irq exit path (no need for local_irq_save there). This also prepares for the split between dynticks and rcu extended quiescent state logics. We'll need this split to further fix illegal uses of RCU in extended quiescent states in the idle loop.

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.

People should be using the perf events interfaces, and the way these system call facilities used the %pcr conflicts with the usage of the NMI watchdog and perf events. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-02-09sparc: Align clone and signal stacks to 16 bytes.David S. Miller1-4/+4
This is mandatory for 64-bit processes, and doing it also for 32-bit processes saves a conditional in the compat case. This fixes the glibc/nptl/tst-stdio1 test case, as well as many others, on 64-bit. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-08-03debug lockups: Improve lockup detection, fix generic arch fallbackIngo Molnar1-2/+2
As Andrew noted, my previous patch ("debug lockups: Improve lockup detection") broke/removed SysRq-L support from architecture that do not provide a __trigger_all_cpu_backtrace implementation. Restore a fallback path and clean up the SysRq-L machinery a bit: - Rename the arch method to arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() - Simplify the define - Document the method a bit - in the hope of more architectures adding support for it. [ The patch touches Sparc code for the rename. ] Cc: Paul E.

2009-02-02sparc64: On non-Niagara, need to touch NMI watchdog in NOHZ mode.David S. Miller1-1/+4
When we're idling in NOHZ mode, timer interrupts are not running. Evidence of processing timer interrupts is what the NMI watchdog uses to determine if the CPU is stuck. On Niagara, we'll yield the cpu. This will make the cpu, at worst, hang out in the hypervisor until an interrupt arrives. This will prevent the NMI watchdog timer from firing. However on non-Niagara we just loop executing instructions which will cause the NMI watchdog to keep firing. It won't see timer interrupts happening so it will think the cpu is stuck. Fix this by touching the NMI watchdog in the cpu idle loop on non-Niagara machines. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-12-04sparc,sparc64: unify kernel/Sam Ravnborg1-0/+812
o Move all files from sparc64/kernel/ to sparc/kernel - rename as appropriate o Update sparc/Makefile to the changes o Update sparc/kernel/Makefile to include the sparc64 files NOTE: This commit changes link order on sparc64! Link order had to change for either of sparc32 and sparc64. And assuming sparc64 see more testing than sparc32 change link order on sparc64 where issues will be caught faster.
