2011-03-23crash_dump: export is_kdump_kernel to modules, consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, ↵Olaf Hering4-28/+1
setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn The Xen PV drivers in a crashed HVM guest can not connect to the dom0 backend drivers because both frontend and backend drivers are still in connected state. To run the connection reset function only in case of a crashdump, the is_kdump_kernel() function needs to be available for the PV driver modules. Consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn into kernel/crash_dump.c Also export elfcorehdr_addr to make is_kdump_kernel() usable for modules. Leave 'elfcorehdr' as early_param(). This changes powerpc from __setup() to early_param(). It adds an address range check from x86 also on ia64 and powerpc.

2011-03-23bitops: remove minix bitops from asm/bitops.hAkinobu Mita1-2/+0
minix bit operations are only used by minix filesystem and useless by other modules. Because byte order of inode and block bitmaps is different on each architecture like below: m68k: big-endian 16bit indexed bitmaps h8300, microblaze, s390, sparc, m68knommu: big-endian 32 or 64bit indexed bitmaps m32r, mips, sh, xtensa: big-endian 32 or 64bit indexed bitmaps for big-endian mode little-endian bitmaps for little-endian mode Others: little-endian bitmaps In order to move minix bit operations from asm/bitops.h to architecture independent code in minix filesystem, this provides two config options. CONFIG_MINIX_FS_BIG_ENDIAN_16BIT_INDEXED is only selected by m68k. CONFIG_MINIX_FS_NATIVE_ENDIAN is selected by the architectures which use native byte order bitmaps (h8300, microblaze, s390, sparc, m68knommu, m32r, mips, sh, xtensa). The architectures which always use little-endian bitmaps do not select these options. Finally, we can remove minix bit operations from asm/bitops.h for all architectures.

Hooks for enable/disble of resources are added, with refcounting of resources being automatically handled so that cs5535_mfd_res_enable/disable are only called when necessary. Clients of cs5535-mfd (in this case, olpc-xo1.c) are also modified to use the mfd_shared API.

2011-03-22x86: allow CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API to be disabledDavid Rientjes2-4/+12
Not all 64-bit systems require ISA-style DMA, so allow it to be configurable. x86 utilizes the generic ISA DMA allocator from kernel/dma.c, so require it only when CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API is enabled. Disabling CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API is dependent on x86_64 since those machines do not have ISA slots and benefit the most from disabling the option (and on CONFIG_EXPERT as required by H. Peter Anvin). When disabled, this also avoids declaring claim_dma_lock(), release_dma_lock(), request_dma(), and free_dma() since those interfaces will no longer be provided.

2011-03-21ACPI, APEI, Add ERST record ID cacheHuang Ying1-16/+26
APEI ERST firmware interface and implementation has no multiple users in mind. For example, if there is four records in storage with ID: 1, 2, 3 and 4, if two ERST readers enumerate the records via GET_NEXT_RECORD_ID as follow, reader 1 reader 2 1 2 3 4 -1 -1 where -1 signals there is no more record ID. Reader 1 has no chance to check record 2 and 4, while reader 2 has no chance to check record 1 and 3. And any other GET_NEXT_RECORD_ID will return -1, that is, other readers will has no chance to check any record even they are not cleared by anyone. This makes raw GET_NEXT_RECORD_ID not suitable for used by multiple users. To solve the issue, an in-memory ERST record ID cache is designed and implemented. When enumerating record ID, the ID returned by GET_NEXT_RECORD_ID is added into cache in addition to be returned to caller. So other readers can check the cache to get all record ID available.

2011-03-21introduce sys_syncfs to sync a single file systemSage Weil4-1/+6
It is frequently useful to sync a single file system, instead of all mounted file systems via sync(2): - On machines with many mounts, it is not at all uncommon for some of them to hang (e.g. unresponsive NFS server). sync(2) will get stuck on those and may never get to the one you do care about (e.g., /). - Some applications write lots of data to the file system and then want to make sure it is flushed to disk. Calling fsync(2) on each file introduces unnecessary ordering constraints that result in a large amount of sub-optimal writeback/flush/commit behavior by the file system. There are currently two ways (that I know of) to sync a single super_block: - BLKFLSBUF ioctl on the block device: That also invalidates the bdev mapping, which isn't usually desirable, and doesn't work for non-block file systems. - 'mount -o remount,rw' will call sync_filesystem as an artifact of the current implemention. Relying on this little-known side effect for something like data safety sounds foolish. Both of these approaches require root privileges, which some applications do not have (nor should they need?) given that sync(2) is an unprivileged operation. This patch introduces a new system call syncfs(2) that takes an fd and syncs only the file system it references. Maybe someday we can $ sync /some/path and not get sync: ignoring all arguments The syscall is motivated by comments by Al and Christoph at the last LSF. syncfs(2) seems like an appropriate name given statfs(2). A similar ioctl was also proposed a while back, see http://marc.info/?l=linux-fsdevel&m=127970513829285&w=2 Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2011-03-19xen: update mask_rw_pte after kernel page tables init changesStefano Stabellini1-3/+5
After "x86-64, mm: Put early page table high" already existing kernel page table pages can be mapped using early_ioremap too so we need to update mask_rw_pte to make sure these pages are still mapped RO. The reason why we have to do that is explain by the commit message of fef5ba797991f9335bcfc295942b684f9bf613a1: "Xen requires that all pages containing pagetable entries to be mapped read-only. If pages used for the initial pagetable are already mapped then we can change the mapping to RO. However, if they are initially unmapped, we need to make sure that when they are later mapped, they are also mapped RO. ..SNIP.. the pagetable setup code early_ioremaps the pages to write their entries, so we must make sure that mappings created in the early_ioremap fixmap area are mapped RW. (Those mappings are removed before the pages are presented to Xen as pagetable pages.)" We accomplish all this in mask_rw_pte by mapping RO all the pages mapped using early_ioremap apart from the last one that has been allocated because it is not a page table page yet (it has not been hooked into the page tables yet).

2011-03-19x86: Cleanup highmap after brk is concludedYinghai Lu3-30/+9
Now cleanup_highmap actually is in two steps: one is early in head64.c and only clears above _end; a second one is in init_memory_mapping() and tries to clean from _brk_end to _end. It should check if those boundaries are PMD_SIZE aligned but currently does not. Also init_memory_mapping() is called several times for numa or memory hotplug, so we really should not handle initial kernel mappings there. This patch moves cleanup_highmap() down after _brk_end is settled so we can do everything in one step. Also we honor max_pfn_mapped in the implementation of cleanup_highmap.

2011-03-18x86: Flush TLB if PGD entry is changed in i386 PAE modeShaohua Li2-10/+4
According to intel CPU manual, every time PGD entry is changed in i386 PAE mode, we need do a full TLB flush. Current code follows this and there is comment for this too in the code. But current code misses the multi-threaded case. A changed page table might be used by several CPUs, every such CPU should flush TLB. Usually this isn't a problem, because we prepopulate all PGD entries at process fork. But when the process does munmap and follows new mmap, this issue will be triggered. When it happens, some CPUs keep doing page faults: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=129915020508238&w=2 Reported-by: Yasunori Goto<y-goto@jp.fujitsu.com> Tested-by: Yasunori Goto<y-goto@jp.fujitsu.com> Reviewed-by: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li<shaohua.li@intel.com> Cc: Mallick Asit K <asit.k.mallick@intel.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: linux-mm <linux-mm@kvack.org> Cc: stable <stable@kernel.org> LKML-Reference: <1300246649.2337.95.camel@sli10-conroe> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2011-03-18x86, dumpstack: Correct stack dump info when frame pointer is availableNamhyung Kim9-30/+33
Current stack dump code scans entire stack and check each entry contains a pointer to kernel code. If CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y it could mark whether the pointer is valid or not based on value of the frame pointer. Invalid entries could be preceded by '?' sign. However this was not going to happen because scan start point was always higher than the frame pointer so that they could not meet. Commit 9c0729dc8062 ("x86: Eliminate bp argument from the stack tracing routines") delayed bp acquisition point, so the bp was read in lower frame, thus all of the entries were marked invalid. This patch fixes this by reverting above commit while retaining stack_frame() helper as suggested by Frederic Weisbecker. End result looks like below: before: [ 3.508329] Call Trace: [ 3.508551] [<ffffffff814f35c9>] ? panic+0x91/0x199 [ 3.508662] [<ffffffff814f3739>] ? printk+0x68/0x6a [ 3.508770] [<ffffffff81a981b2>] ? mount_block_root+0x257/0x26e [ 3.508876] [<ffffffff81a9821f>] ? mount_root+0x56/0x5a [ 3.508975] [<ffffffff81a98393>] ? prepare_namespace+0x170/0x1a9 [ 3.509216] [<ffffffff81a9772b>] ? kernel_init+0x1d2/0x1e2 [ 3.509335] [<ffffffff81003894>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 [ 3.509442] [<ffffffff814f6880>] ? restore_args+0x0/0x30 [ 3.509542] [<ffffffff81a97559>] ? kernel_init+0x0/0x1e2 [ 3.509641] [<ffffffff81003890>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x0/0x10 after: [ 3.522991] Call Trace: [ 3.523351] [<ffffffff814f35b9>] panic+0x91/0x199 [ 3.523468] [<ffffffff814f3729>] ? printk+0x68/0x6a [ 3.523576] [<ffffffff81a981b2>] mount_block_root+0x257/0x26e [ 3.523681] [<ffffffff81a9821f>] mount_root+0x56/0x5a [ 3.523780] [<ffffffff81a98393>] prepare_namespace+0x170/0x1a9 [ 3.523885] [<ffffffff81a9772b>] kernel_init+0x1d2/0x1e2 [ 3.523987] [<ffffffff81003894>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 [ 3.524228] [<ffffffff814f6880>] ? restore_args+0x0/0x30 [ 3.524345] [<ffffffff81a97559>] ? kernel_init+0x0/0x1e2 [ 3.524445] [<ffffffff81003890>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x0/0x10 -v5: * fix build breakage with oprofile -v4: * use 0 instead of regs->bp * separate out printk changes -v3: * apply comment from Frederic * add a couple of printk fixes Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@gmail.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Soren Sandmann <ssp@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com> LKML-Reference: <1300416006-3163-1-git-send-email-namhyung@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
