* | [PATCH] powerpc: Merge futex.hDavid Gibson2005-11-023-75/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch merges the ppc32 and ppc64 versions of futex.h, essentially by taking the ppc64 version as the powerpc version. The old ppc32 version did not implement the futex_atomic_op_inuser() callback (it always returned -ENOSYS), so FUTEX_WAKE_OP would not work on ppc32. In fact the ppc64 version of this function is almost suitable for ppc32 as well - the only change needed is to extend ppc_asm.h with a macro expanding to to the right pseudo-op to store a pointer (either ".long" or ".llong"). Built and booted on pSeries. Built for 32-bit powermac. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

* | powerpc: Fix BUG/WARN macros for 64-bitPaul Mackerras2005-11-011-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The bug_entry struct had an int in the middle of pointers and unsigned longs, and the inline asm that generated the bug table entries didn't insert the necessary padding, so the fields following it didn't get initialized properly and an oops resulted. This changes the int field (the line number) to a long so that all the fields are the same size and no padding is required. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* | [PATCH] powerpc: Merge bitops.hDavid Gibson2005-11-014-835/+437
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Here's a revised version. This re-introduces the set_bits() function from ppc64, which I removed because I thought it was unused (it exists on no other arch). In fact it is used in the powermac interrupt code (but not on pSeries). - We use LARXL/STCXL macros to generate the right (32 or 64 bit) instructions, similar to LDL/STL from ppc_asm.h, used in fpu.S - ppc32 previously used a full "sync" barrier at the end of test_and_*_bit(), whereas ppc64 used an "isync". The merged version uses "isync", since I believe that's sufficient. - The ppc64 versions of then minix_*() bitmap functions have changed semantics. Previously on ppc64, these functions were big-endian (that is bit 0 was the LSB in the first 64-bit, big-endian word). On ppc32 (and x86, for that matter, they were little-endian. As far as I can tell, the big-endian usage was simply wrong - I guess no-one ever tried to use minixfs on ppc64. - On ppc32 find_next_bit() and find_next_zero_bit() are no longer inline (they were already out-of-line on ppc64). - For ppc64, sched_find_first_bit() has moved from mmu_context.h to the merged bitops. What it was doing in mmu_context.h in the first place, I have no idea. - The fls() function is now implemented using the cntlzw instruction on ppc64, instead of generic_fls(), as it already was on ppc32. - For ARCH=ppc, this patch requires adding arch/powerpc/lib to the arch/ppc/Makefile. This in turn requires some changes to arch/powerpc/lib/Makefile which didn't correctly handle ARCH=ppc. Built and running on G5.

* | [PATCH] powerpc: Merge ipcbuf.hDavid Gibson2005-11-013-57/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch merges ppc32 and ppc64 versions of ipcbuf.h. The merge is essentially trivial, since the structure defined in each version was already identical. Only wrinkle is that the merged version now includes linux/types.h in order to get the fixed width integer types. In fact, the old versions probably should have been including that anyway, since the file uses various __kernel_*_t types. Built and booted on G5, built for 32-bit pmac, but not booted, since the merge tree currently doesn't boot there.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after this disentangling (patch to follow later). However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this. In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts will pick it up again in the next round.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is a rewrite of the one submitted on October 1st, using modules (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=112819093522998&w=2). This rewrite adds a tristate CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST, which enables an intense torture test of the RCU infratructure. This is needed due to the continued changes to the RCU infrastructure to accommodate dynamic ticks, CPU hotplug, realtime, and so on. Most of the code is in a separate file that is compiled only if the CONFIG variable is set. Documentation on how to run the test and interpret the output is also included. This code has been tested on i386 and ppc64, and an earlier version of the code has received extensive testing on a number of architectures as part of the PREEMPT_RT patchset. Signed-off-by: "Paul E.

| * | [PATCH] Keys: Add LSM hooks for key management [try #3]David Howells2005-10-303-5/+84

The notable changes are: (1) The key struct now supports a security pointer for the use of security modules. This will permit key labelling and restrictions on which programs may access a key. (2) Security modules get a chance to note (or abort) the allocation of a key. (3) The key permission checking can now be enhanced by the security modules; the permissions check consults LSM if all other checks bear out. (4) The key permissions checking functions now return an error code rather than a boolean value. (5) An extra permission has been added to govern the modification of attributes (UID, GID, permissions). Note that there isn't an LSM hook specifically for each keyctl() operation, but rather the permissions hook allows control of individual operations based on the permission request bits. Key management access control through LSM is enabled by automatically if both CONFIG_KEYS and CONFIG_SECURITY are enabled.

| * | [PATCH] cpusets: automatic numa mempolicy rebindingPaul Jackson2005-10-301-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch automatically updates a tasks NUMA mempolicy when its cpuset memory placement changes. It does so within the context of the task, without any need to support low level external mempolicy manipulation. If a system is not using cpusets, or if running on a system with just the root (all-encompassing) cpuset, then this remap is a no-op. Only when a task is moved between cpusets, or a cpusets memory placement is changed does the following apply. Otherwise, the main routine below, rebind_policy() is not even called. When mixing cpusets, scheduler affinity, and NUMA mempolicies, the essential role of cpusets is to place jobs (several related tasks) on a set of CPUs and Memory Nodes, the essential role of sched_setaffinity is to manage a jobs processor placement within its allowed cpuset, and the essential role of NUMA mempolicy (mbind, set_mempolicy) is to manage a jobs memory placement within its allowed cpuset. However, CPU affinity and NUMA memory placement are managed within the kernel using absolute system wide numbering, not cpuset relative numbering. This is ok until a job is migrated to a different cpuset, or what's the same, a jobs cpuset is moved to different CPUs and Memory Nodes. Then the CPU affinity and NUMA memory placement of the tasks in the job need to be updated, to preserve their cpuset-relative position. This can be done for CPU affinity using sched_setaffinity() from user code, as one task can modify anothers CPU affinity. This cannot be done from an external task for NUMA memory placement, as that can only be modified in the context of the task using it. However, it easy enough to remap a tasks NUMA mempolicy automatically when a task is migrated, using the existing cpuset mechanism to trigger a refresh of a tasks memory placement after its cpuset has changed. All that is needed is the old and new nodemask, and notice to the task that it needs to rebind its mempolicy. The tasks mems_allowed has the old mask, the tasks cpuset has the new mask, and the existing cpuset_update_current_mems_allowed() mechanism provides the notice. The bitmap/cpumask/nodemask remap operators provide the cpuset relative calculations. This patch leaves open a couple of issues: 1) Updating vma and shmfs/tmpfs/hugetlbfs memory policies: These mempolicies may reference nodes outside of those allowed to the current task by its cpuset. Tasks are migrated as part of jobs, which reside on what might be several cpusets in a subtree. When such a job is migrated, all NUMA memory policy references to nodes within that cpuset subtree should be translated, and references to any nodes outside that subtree should be left untouched. A future patch will provide the cpuset mechanism needed to mark such subtrees. With that patch, we will be able to correctly migrate these other memory policies across a job migration. 2) Updating cpuset, affinity and memory policies in user space: This is harder. Any placement state stored in user space using system-wide numbering will be invalidated across a migration. More work will be required to provide user code with a migration-safe means to manage its cpuset relative placement, while preserving the current API's that pass system wide numbers, not cpuset relative numbers across the kernel-user boundary.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the forthcoming task migration support, a key calculation will be mapping cpu and node numbers from the old set to the new set while preserving cpuset-relative offset. For example, if a task and its pages on nodes 8-11 are being migrated to nodes 24-27, then pages on node 9 (the 2nd node in the old set) should be moved to node 25 (the 2nd node in the new set.) As with other bitmap operations, the proper way to code this is to provide the underlying calculation in lib/bitmap.c, and then to provide the usual cpumask and nodemask wrappers. This patch provides that. These operations are termed 'remap' operations. Both remapping a single bit and a set of bits is supported.

| * | [PATCH] cpusets: dual semaphore locking overhaulPaul Jackson2005-10-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Overhaul cpuset locking. Replace single semaphore with two semaphores. The suggestion to use two locks was made by Roman Zippel. Both locks are global. Code that wants to modify cpusets must first acquire the exclusive manage_sem, which allows them read-only access to cpusets, and holds off other would-be modifiers. Before making actual changes, the second semaphore, callback_sem must be acquired as well. Code that needs only to query cpusets must acquire callback_sem, which is also a global exclusive lock. The earlier problems with double tripping are avoided, because it is allowed for holders of manage_sem to nest the second callback_sem lock, and only callback_sem is needed by code called from within __alloc_pages(), where the double tripping had been possible. This is not quite the same as a normal read/write semaphore, because obtaining read-only access with intent to change must hold off other such attempts, while allowing read-only access w/o such intention. Changing cpusets involves several related checks and changes, which must be done while allowing read-only queries (to avoid the double trip), but while ensuring nothing changes (holding off other would be modifiers.) This overhaul of cpuset locking also makes careful use of task_lock() to guard access to the task->cpuset pointer, closing a couple of race conditions noticed while reading this code (thanks, Roman). I've never seen these races fail in any use or test. See further the comments in the code.

And even if it did it wouldn't matter too much because 64bit userspace on parisc is in an embrionic stage.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that RCU applied on 'struct file' seems stable, we can place f_rcuhead in a memory location that is not anymore used at call_rcu(&f->f_rcuhead, file_free_rcu) time, to reduce the size of this critical kernel object. The trick I used is to move f_rcuhead and f_list in an union called f_u The callers are changed so that f_rcuhead becomes f_u.fu_rcuhead and f_list becomes f_u.f_list Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove timer_list.magic and associated debugging code. I originally added this when a spinlock was added to timer_list - this meant that an all-zeroes timer became illegal and init_timer() was required. That spinlock isn't even there any more, although timer.base must now be initialised. I'll keep this debugging code in -mm.

The problem is we need to call filesystem's own invalidatepage() from block_write_full_page(). block_write_full_page() must call filesystem's invalidatepage(). Otherwise following nasty race can happen: proc 1 proc 2 ------ ------ - write some new data to 'offset' => bh gets to the transactions data list - starts truncate => i_size set to new size - mpage_writepages() - ext3_ordered_writepage() to 'offset' - block_write_full_page() - page->index > end_index+1 - block_invalidatepage() - discard_buffer() - clear_buffer_mapped() - commit triggers and finds unmapped buffer - BOOM!

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make UML share the underlying cpu-specific tuning done on i386. Actually, for now many config options aren't used a lot - but that can be done later. Also, UML relies on GCC optimization for things like memcpy and such more than i386, so specifying the correct -march and -mtune should be enough. Later, we may want to correct some other stuff. For instance, since FPU context switching, for us, is done (at least partially, i.e. between our kernelspace and userspace) by the host, we may allow usage of FPU operations by GCC. This doesn't hold for kernelspace vs. kernelspace, but we don't support preemption.
