* codafs: fix compile warning when CONFIG_SYSCTL=nRakib Mullick2011-03-221-7/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When CONFIG_SYSCTL=n, we get the following warning: fs/coda/sysctl.c:18: warning: `coda_tabl' defined but not used Fix the warning by making sure coda_table and it's callee function are in the same context. Also clean up the code by removing extra #ifdef.

* x86: allow CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API to be disabledDavid Rientjes2011-03-222-4/+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.

* x86: only compile floppy driver if CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API is enabledDavid Rientjes2011-03-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The generic floppy disk driver utilizies the interface provided by CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API, specifically claim_dma_lock(), release_dma_lock(), request_dma(), and free_dma(). Thus, there's a strict dependency on the config option and the driver should only be loaded if the kernel supports ISA-style DMA.

* pnp: only assign IORESOURCE_DMA if CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API is enabledDavid Rientjes2011-03-223-6/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | IORESOURCE_DMA cannot be assigned without utilizing the interface provided by CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API, specifically request_dma() and free_dma(). Thus, there's a strict dependency on the config option and limits IORESOURCE_DMA only to architectures that support ISA-style DMA. ia64 is not one of those architectures, so pnp_check_dma() no longer needs to be special-cased for that architecture. pnp_assign_resources() will now return -EINVAL if IORESOURCE_DMA is attempted on such a kernel.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If you run checkpatch against multiple patches, and one of them has a whitespace issue which can be helped via a script (rpt_cleaners), you will see the same NOTE over and over for all subsequent patches. It makes it seem like those patches also have whitespace problems when in reality, there's only one or two bad apples. So reset rpt_cleaners back to 0 after we've issued the note so that it only shows up near the patch with the actual problems.

* kstrto*: converting strings to integers done (hopefully) rightAlexey Dobriyan2011-03-228-150/+1039
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. simple_strto*() do not contain overflow checks and crufty, libc way to indicate failure. 2. strict_strto*() also do not have overflow checks but the name and comments pretend they do. 3. Both families have only "long long" and "long" variants, but users want strtou8() 4. Both "simple" and "strict" prefixes are wrong: Simple doesn't exactly say what's so simple, strict should not exist because conversion should be strict by default. The solution is to use "k" prefix and add convertors for more types. Enter kstrtoull() kstrtoll() kstrtoul() kstrtol() kstrtouint() kstrtoint() kstrtou64() kstrtos64() kstrtou32() kstrtos32() kstrtou16() kstrtos16() kstrtou8() kstrtos8() Include runtime testsuite (somewhat incomplete) as well. strict_strto*() become deprecated, stubbed to kstrto*() and eventually will be removed altogether. Use kstrto*() in code today! Note: on some archs _kstrtoul() and _kstrtol() are left in tree, even if they'll be unused at runtime. This is temporarily solution, because I don't want to hardcode list of archs where these functions aren't needed. Current solution with sizeof() and __alignof__ at least always works.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In an effort to reduce kernel address leaks that might be used to help target kernel privilege escalation exploits, this patch uses %pK when displaying addresses in /proc/kallsyms, /proc/modules, and /sys/module/*/sections/*. Note that this changes %x to %p, so some legitimately 0 values in /proc/kallsyms would have changed from 00000000 to "(null)". To avoid this, "(null)" is not used when using the "K" format. Anything that was already successfully parsing "(null)" in addition to full hex digits should have no problem with this change. (Thanks to Joe Perches for the suggestion.) Due to the %x to %p, "void *" casts are needed since these addresses are already "unsigned long" everywhere internally, due to their starting life as ELF section offsets.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On some architectures, the boot process involves de-registering the boot console (early boot), initialize drivers and then re-register the console. This mechanism introduces a window in which no printk can happen on the console and messages are buffered and then printed once the new console is available. If a kernel crashes during this window, all it's left on the boot console is "console [foo] enabled, bootconsole disabled" making debug of the crash rather 'interesting'. By adding "keep_bootcon" option, do not unregister the boot console, that will allow to printk everything that is happening up to the crash. The option is clearly meant only for debugging purposes as it introduces lots of duplicated info printed on console, but will make bug report from users easier as it doesn't require a kernel build just to figure out where we crash.

* kernel/watchdog.c: always return NOTIFY_OK during cpu up/down eventsDon Zickus2011-03-221-6/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch addresses a couple of problems. One was the case when the hardlockup failed to start, it also failed to start the softlockup. There were valid cases when the hardlockup shouldn't start and that shouldn't block the softlockup (no lapic, bios controls perf counters). The second problem was when the hardlockup failed to start on boxes (from a no lapic or bios controlled perf counter case), it reported failure to the cpu notifier chain. This blocked the notifier from continuing to start other more critical pieces of cpu bring-up (in our case based on a 2.6.32 fork, it was the mce). As a result, during soft cpu online/offline testing, the system would panic when a cpu was offlined because the cpu notifier would succeed in processing a watchdog disable cpu event and would panic in the mce case as a result of un-initialized variables from a never executed cpu up event. I realized the hardlockup/softlockup cases are really just debugging aids and should never impede the progress of a cpu up/down event. Therefore I modified the code to always return NOTIFY_OK and instead rely on printks to inform the user of problems.

* kernel/watchdog.c: allow hardlockup to panic by defaultDon Zickus2011-03-223-3/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a cpu is considered stuck, instead of limping along and just printing a warning, it is sometimes preferred to just panic, let kdump capture the vmcore and reboot. This gets the machine back into a stable state quickly while saving the info that got it into a stuck state to begin with. Add a Kconfig option to allow users to set the hardlockup to panic by default. Also add in a 'nmi_watchdog=nopanic' to override this.

* calibrate: retry with wider bounds when converge seems to failPhil Carmody2011-03-221-4/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Systems with unmaskable interrupts such as SMIs may massively underestimate loops_per_jiffy, and fail to converge anywhere near the real value. A case seen on x86_64 was an initial estimate of 256<<12, which converged to 511<<12 where the real value should have been over 630<<12. This admitedly requires bypassing the TSC calibration (lpj_fine), and a failure to settle in the direct calibration too, but is physically possible. This failure does not depend on my previous calibration optimisation, but by luck is easy to fix with the optimisation in place with a trivial retry loop. In the context of the optimised converging method, as we can no longer trust the starting estimate, enlarge the search bounds exponentially so that the number of retries is logarithmically bounded.

* calibrate: home in on correct lpj value more quicklyPhil Carmody2011-03-221-23/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Binary chop with a jiffy-resync on each step to find an upper bound is slow, so just race in a tight-ish loop to find an underestimate. If done with lots of individual steps, sometimes several hundreds of iterations would be required, which would impose a significant overhead, and make the initial estimate very low. By taking slowly increasing steps there will be less overhead. E.g. an x86_64 2.67GHz could have fitted in 613 individual small delays, but in reality should have been able to fit in a single delay 644 times longer, so underestimated by 31 steps. To reach the equivalent of 644 small delays with the accelerating scheme now requires about 130 iterations, so has <1/4th of the overhead, and can therefore be expected to underestimate by only 7 steps. As now we have a better initial estimate we can binary chop over a smaller range. With the loop overhead in the initial estimate kept low, and the step sizes moderate, we won't have under-estimated by much, so chose as tight a range as we can.

* calibrate: extract fall-back calculation into own helperPhil Carmody2011-03-221-33/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The motivation for this patch series is that currently our OMAP calibrates itself using the trial-and-error binary chop fallback that some other architectures no longer need to perform. This is a lengthy process, taking 0.2s in an environment where boot time is of great interest. Patch 2/4 has two optimisations. Firstly, it replaces the initial repeated- doubling to find the relevant power of 2 with a tight loop that just does as much as it can in a jiffy. Secondly, it doesn't binary chop over an entire power of 2 range, it choses a much smaller range based on how much it squeezed in, and failed to squeeze in, during the first stage. Both are significant optimisations, and bring our calibration down from 23 jiffies to 5, and, in the process, often arrive at a more accurate lpj value. The 'bands' and 'sub-logarithmic' growth may look over-engineered, but they only cost a small level of inaccuracy in the initial guess (for all architectures) in order to avoid the very large inaccuracies that appeared during testing (on x86_64 architectures, and presumably others with less metronomic operation). Note that due to the existence of the TSC and other timers, the x86_64 will not typically use this fallback routine, but I wanted to code defensively, able to cope with all kinds of processor behaviours and kernel command line options. Patch 3/4 is an additional trap for the nightmare scenario where the initial estimate is very inaccurate, possibly due to things like SMIs. It simply retries with a larger bound. Stephen said: I tried this patch set out on an MSM7630. : : Before: : : Calibrating delay loop... 681.57 BogoMIPS (lpj=3407872) : : After: : : Calibrating delay loop... 680.75 BogoMIPS (lpj=3403776) : : But the really good news is calibration time dropped from ~247ms to ~56ms. : Sadly we won't be able to benefit from this should my udelay patches make : it into ARM because we would be using calibrate_delay_direct() instead (at : least on machines who choose to). Can we somehow reapply the logic behind : this to calibrate_delay_direct()? That would be even better, but this is : definitely a boot time improvement. : : Or maybe we could just replace calibrate_delay_direct() with this fallback : calculation? If __delay() is a thin wrapper around read_current_timer() : it should work just as well (plus patch 3 makes it handle SMIs). I'll try : that out. This patch: ... so that it can be modified more clinically. This is almost entirely cosmetic. The only change to the operation is that the global variable is only set once after the estimation is completed, rather than taking on all the intermediate values. However, there are no readers of that variable, so this change is unimportant.

* sys_unshare: remove the dead CLONE_THREAD/SIGHAND/VM codeOleg Nesterov2011-03-221-98/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Cleanup: kill the dead code which does nothing but complicates the code and confuses the reader. sys_unshare(CLONE_THREAD/SIGHAND/VM) is not really implemented, and I doubt very much it will ever work. At least, nobody even tried since the original 99d1419d96d7df9cfa56 ("unshare system call -v5: system call handler function") was applied more than 4 years ago. And the code is not consistent. unshare_thread() always fails unconditionally, while unshare_sighand() and unshare_vm() pretend to work if there is nothing to unshare. Remove unshare_thread(), unshare_sighand(), unshare_vm() helpers and related variables and add a simple CLONE_THREAD | CLONE_SIGHAND| CLONE_VM check into check_unshare_flags(). Also, move the "CLONE_NEWNS needs CLONE_FS" check from check_unshare_flags() to sys_unshare(). This looks more consistent and matches the similar do_sysvsem check in sys_unshare(). Note: with or without this patch "atomic_read(mm->mm_users) > 1" can give a false positive due to get_task_mm().
