Either CPUs are hot-unplugged or suspend/resume occurs, cpufreq core will send notifications to cpufreq-stats and stats structure and sysfs entries would be correctly handled.. And so we don't actually need hotcpu notifiers in cpufreq-stats anymore. We were only handling cpu hot-unplug events here and that are already taken care of by POLICY notifiers.

There are several problems with cpufreq stats in the way it handles cpufreq_unregister_driver() and suspend/resume.. - We must not lose data collected so far when suspend/resume happens and so stats directories must not be removed/allocated during these operations, which is done currently. - cpufreq_stat has registered notifiers with both cpufreq and hotplug. It adds sysfs stats directory with a cpufreq notifier: CPUFREQ_NOTIFY and removes this directory with a notifier from hotplug core. In case cpufreq_unregister_driver() is called (on rmmod cpufreq driver), stats directories per cpu aren't removed as CPUs are still online. The only call cpufreq_stats gets is cpufreq_stats_update_policy_cpu() for all CPUs except the last of each policy. And pointer to stat information is stored in the entry for last CPU in the per-cpu cpufreq_stats_table. But policy structure would be freed inside cpufreq core and so that will result in memory leak inside cpufreq stats (as we are never freeing memory for stats). Now if we again insert the module cpufreq_register_driver() will be called and we will again allocate stats data and put it on for first CPU of every policy. In case we only have a single CPU per policy, we will return with a error from cpufreq_stats_create_table() due to this code: if (per_cpu(cpufreq_stats_table, cpu)) return -EBUSY; And so probably cpufreq stats directory would not show up anymore (as it was added inside last policies->kobj which doesn't exist anymore). I haven't tested it, though. Also the values in stats files wouldn't be refreshed as we are using the earlier stats structure. - CPUFREQ_NOTIFY is called from cpufreq_set_policy() which is called for scenarios where we don't really want cpufreq_stat_notifier_policy() to get called. For example whenever we are changing anything related to a policy: min/max/current freq, etc. cpufreq_set_policy() is called and so cpufreq stats is notified. Where we don't do any useful stuff other than simply returning with -EBUSY from cpufreq_stats_create_table(). And so this isn't the right notifier that cpufreq stats.. Due to all above reasons this patch does following changes: - Add new notifiers CPUFREQ_CREATE_POLICY and CPUFREQ_REMOVE_POLICY, which are only called when policy is created/destroyed. They aren't called for suspend/resume paths.. - Use these notifiers in cpufreq_stat_notifier_policy() to create/destory stats sysfs entries. And so cpufreq_unregister_driver() or suspend/resume shouldn't be a problem for cpufreq_stats. - Return early from cpufreq_stat_cpu_callback() for suspend/resume sequence, so that we don't free stats structure.

The powernow-k6 driver used to read the initial multiplier from the powernow register. However, there is a problem with this: * If there was a frequency transition before, the multiplier read from the register corresponds to the current multiplier. * If there was no frequency transition since reset, the field in the register always reads as zero, regardless of the current multiplier that is set using switches on the mainboard and that the CPU is running at. The zero value corresponds to multiplier 4.5, so as a consequence, the powernow-k6 driver always assumes multiplier 4.5. For example, if we have 550MHz CPU with bus frequency 100MHz and multiplier 5.5, the powernow-k6 driver thinks that the multiplier is 4.5 and bus frequency is 122MHz. The powernow-k6 driver then sets the multiplier to 4.5, underclocking the CPU to 450MHz, but reports the current frequency as 550MHz. There is no reliable way how to read the initial multiplier. I modified the driver so that it contains a table of known frequencies (based on parameters of existing CPUs and some common overclocking schemes) and sets the multiplier according to the frequency. If the frequency is unknown (because of unusual overclocking or underclocking), the user must supply the bus speed and maximum multiplier as module parameters. This patch should be backported to all stable kernels. If it doesn't apply cleanly, change it, or ask me to change it. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

I found out that a system with k6-3+ processor is unstable during network server load. The system locks up or the network card stops receiving. The reason for the instability is the CPU frequency scaling. During frequency transition the processor is in "EPM Stop Grant" state. The documentation says that the processor doesn't respond to inquiry requests in this state. Consequently, coherency of processor caches and bus master devices is not maintained, causing the system instability. This patch flushes the cache during frequency transition. It fixes the instability. Other minor changes: * u64 invalue changed to unsigned long because the variable is 32-bit * move the logic to set the multiplier to a separate function powernow_k6_set_cpu_multiplier * preserve lower 5 bits of the powernow port instead of 4 (the voltage field has 5 bits) * mask interrupts when reading the multiplier, so that the port is not open during other activity (running other kernel code with the port open shouldn't cause any misbehavior, but we should better be safe and keep the port closed) This patch should be backported to all stable kernels. If it doesn't apply cleanly, change it, or ask me to change it. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

Sometimes boot loaders set CPU frequency to a value outside of frequency table present with cpufreq core. In such cases CPU might be unstable if it has to run on that frequency for long duration of time and so its better to set it to a frequency which is specified in freq-table. This also makes cpufreq stats inconsistent as cpufreq-stats would fail to register because current frequency of CPU isn't found in freq-table. Because we don't want this change to affect boot process badly, we go for the next freq which is >= policy->cur ('cur' must be set by now, otherwise we will end up setting freq to lowest of the table as 'cur' is initialized to zero). In case current frequency doesn't match any frequency from freq-table, we throw warnings to user, so that user can get this fixed in their bootloaders or freq-tables.

In such cases CPU might be unstable if it has to run on that frequency for long duration of time and so its better to set it to a frequency which is specified in frequency table. On some systems we can't really say what frequency we're running at the moment and so for these we shouldn't check if we are running at a frequency present in frequency table. And so we really can't force this for all the cpufreq drivers. Hence we are created another flag here: CPUFREQ_NEED_INITIAL_FREQ_CHECK that will be marked by platforms which want to go for this check at boot time. Initially this is done for all ARM platforms but others may follow if required. Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

on i.MX6Q, cpu freq change need to follow below flows: 1. each setpoint has different VDDARM, VDDSOC/PU voltage, get the setpoint table from dts; 2. when cpu freq is scaling up, need to increase VDDSOC/PU voltage before VDDARM, if VDDPU is off, no need to change it; 3. when cpu freq is scaling down, need to decrease VDDARM voltage before VDDSOC/PU, if VDDPU is off, no need to change it; normally dts will pass vddsoc/pu freq/volt info to kernel, if not, will use fixed value for vddsoc/pu voltage setting.

In the current code, if we fail during a frequency transition, we simply send the POSTCHANGE notification with the old frequency. This isn't enough. One of the core users of these notifications is the code responsible for keeping loops_per_jiffy aligned with frequency changes. And mostly it is written as: if ((val == CPUFREQ_PRECHANGE && freq->old < freq->new) || (val == CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE && freq->old > freq->new)) { update-loops-per-jiffy... } So, suppose we are changing to a higher frequency and failed during transition, then following will happen: - CPUFREQ_PRECHANGE notification with freq-new > freq-old - CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notification with freq-new == freq-old The first one will update loops_per_jiffy and second one will do nothing. Even if we send the 2nd notification by exchanging values of freq-new and old, some users of these notifications might get unstable. This can be fixed by simply calling cpufreq_notify_post_transition() with error code and this routine will take care of sending notifications in the correct order.

When a CPU is hot removed we'll cancel all the delayed work items via gov_cancel_work(). Sometimes the delayed work function determines that it should adjust the delay for all other CPUs that the policy is managing. If this scenario occurs, the canceling CPU will cancel its own work but queue up the other CPUs works to run. Commit 3617f2 (cpufreq: Fix timer/workqueue corruption due to double queueing) has tried to fix this, but reading governor_enabled is not protected by cpufreq_governor_lock. Even though od_dbs_timer() checks governor_enabled before gov_queue_work(), this scenario may occur. For example: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- cpu_down() ... <work runs> __cpufreq_remove_dev() od_dbs_timer() __cpufreq_governor() policy->governor_enabled policy->governor_enabled = false; cpufreq_governor_dbs() case CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP: gov_cancel_work(dbs_data, policy); cpu0 work is canceled timer is canceled cpu1 work is canceled <waits for cpu1> gov_queue_work(*, *, true); cpu0 work queued cpu1 work queued cpu2 work queued ... cpu1 work is canceled cpu2 work is canceled ... At the end of the GOV_STOP case cpu0 still has a work queued to run although the code is expecting all of the works to be canceled. __cpufreq_remove_dev() will then proceed to re-initialize all the other CPUs works except for the CPU that is going down. The CPUFREQ_GOV_START case in cpufreq_governor_dbs() will trample over the queued work and debugobjects will spit out a warning: WARNING: at lib/debugobjects.c:260 debug_print_object+0x94/0xbc() ODEBUG: init active (active state 0) object type: timer_list hint: delayed_work_timer_fn+0x0/0x14 Modules linked in: CPU: 1 PID: 1205 Comm: sh Tainted: G W 3.10.0 #200 [<c01144f0>] (unwind_backtrace+0x0/0xf8) from [<c0111d98>] (show_stack+0x10/0x14) [<c0111d98>] (show_stack+0x10/0x14) from [<c01272cc>] (warn_slowpath_common+0x4c/0x68) [<c01272cc>] (warn_slowpath_common+0x4c/0x68) from [<c012737c>] (warn_slowpath_fmt+0x30/0x40) [<c012737c>] (warn_slowpath_fmt+0x30/0x40) from [<c034c640>] (debug_print_object+0x94/0xbc) [<c034c640>] (debug_print_object+0x94/0xbc) from [<c034c7f8>] (__debug_object_init+0xc8/0x3c0) [<c034c7f8>] (__debug_object_init+0xc8/0x3c0) from [<c01360e0>] (init_timer_key+0x20/0x104) [<c01360e0>] (init_timer_key+0x20/0x104) from [<c04872ac>] (cpufreq_governor_dbs+0x1dc/0x68c) [<c04872ac>] (cpufreq_governor_dbs+0x1dc/0x68c) from [<c04833a8>] (__cpufreq_governor+0x80/0x1b0) [<c04833a8>] (__cpufreq_governor+0x80/0x1b0) from [<c0483704>] (__cpufreq_remove_dev.isra.12+0x22c/0x380) [<c0483704>] (__cpufreq_remove_dev.isra.12+0x22c/0x380) from [<c0692f38>] (cpufreq_cpu_callback+0x48/0x5c) [<c0692f38>] (cpufreq_cpu_callback+0x48/0x5c) from [<c014fb40>] (notifier_call_chain+0x44/0x84) [<c014fb40>] (notifier_call_chain+0x44/0x84) from [<c012ae44>] (__cpu_notify+0x2c/0x48) [<c012ae44>] (__cpu_notify+0x2c/0x48) from [<c068dd40>] (_cpu_down+0x80/0x258) [<c068dd40>] (_cpu_down+0x80/0x258) from [<c068df40>] (cpu_down+0x28/0x3c) [<c068df40>] (cpu_down+0x28/0x3c) from [<c068e4c0>] (store_online+0x30/0x74) [<c068e4c0>] (store_online+0x30/0x74) from [<c03a7308>] (dev_attr_store+0x18/0x24) [<c03a7308>] (dev_attr_store+0x18/0x24) from [<c0256fe0>] (sysfs_write_file+0x100/0x180) [<c0256fe0>] (sysfs_write_file+0x100/0x180) from [<c01fec9c>] (vfs_write+0xbc/0x184) [<c01fec9c>] (vfs_write+0xbc/0x184) from [<c01ff034>] (SyS_write+0x40/0x68) [<c01ff034>] (SyS_write+0x40/0x68) from [<c010e200>] (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x48) In gov_queue_work(), lock cpufreq_governor_lock before gov_queue_work, and unlock it after __gov_queue_work().

Pull ACPI and PM fixes and new device IDs from Rafael Wysocki: "These commits, except for one, are regression fixes and the remaining one fixes a divide error leading to a kernel panic. The majority of the regressions fixed here were introduced during the 3.12 cycle, one of them is from this cycle and one is older. Specifics: - VGA switcheroo was broken for some users as a result of the ACPI-based PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) changes in 3.12, because some previously ignored hotplug events started to be handled. The fix causes them to be ignored again. - There are two more issues related to cpufreq's suspend/resume handling changes from the 3.12 cycle addressed by Viresh Kumar's fixes. - intel_pstate triggers a divide error in a timer function if the P-state information it needs is missing during initialization. This leads to kernel panics on nested KVM clients and is fixed by failing the initialization cleanly in those cases. - PCI initalization code changes during the 3.9 cycle uncovered BIOS issues related to ACPI wakeup notifications (some BIOSes send them for devices that aren't supposed to support ACPI wakeup). Work around them by installing an ACPI wakeup notify handler for all PCI devices with ACPI support. - The Calxeda cpuilde driver's probe function is tagged as __init, which is incorrect and causes a section mismatch to occur during build. Fix from Andre Przywara removes the __init tag from there. - During the 3.12 cycle ACPIPHP started to print warnings about missing _ADR for devices that legitimately don't have it.

The EPOLL_CTL_DEL path of epoll contains a classic, ab-ba deadlock. That is, epoll_ctl(a, EPOLL_CTL_DEL, b, x), will deadlock with epoll_ctl(b, EPOLL_CTL_DEL, a, x). The deadlock was introduced with commmit 67347fe4 ("epoll: do not take global 'epmutex' for simple topologies"). The acquistion of the ep->mtx for the destination 'ep' was added such that a concurrent EPOLL_CTL_ADD operation would see the correct state of the ep (Specifically, the check for '!list_empty(&f.file->f_ep_links') However, by simply not acquiring the lock, we do not serialize behind the ep->mtx from the add path, and thus may perform a full path check when if we had waited a little longer it may not have been necessary. However, this is a transient state, and performing the full loop checking in this case is not harmful. The important point is that we wouldn't miss doing the full loop checking when required, since EPOLL_CTL_ADD always locks any 'ep's that its operating upon. The reason we don't need to do lock ordering in the add path, is that we are already are holding the global 'epmutex' whenever we do the double lock. Further, the original posting of this patch, which was tested for the intended performance gains, did not perform this additional locking.

RIP dequeue_hwpoisoned_huge_page+0x131/0x1e0 CR2: 0000000000000058 The reasoning of this problem is shown below: - when we have a memory error on a thp tail page, the memory error handler grabs a refcount of the head page to keep the thp under us. - Before unmapping the error page from processes, we split the thp, where page refcounts of both of head/tail pages don't change. - Then we call try_to_unmap() over the error page (which was a tail page before). We didn't pin the error page to handle the memory error, this error page is freed and removed from LRU list. - We never have the error page on LRU list, so the first page state check returns "unknown page," then we move to the second check with the saved page flag. - The saved page flag have PG_tail set, so the second page state check returns "hugepage." - We call me_huge_page() for freed error page, then we hit the above panic. The root cause is that we didn't move refcount from the head page to the tail page after split thp. So this patch suggests to do this. This panic was introduced by commit 524fca1e ("HWPOISON: fix misjudgement of page_action() for errors on mlocked pages"). Note that we did have the same refcount problem before this commit, but it was just ignored because we had only first page state check which returned "unknown page." The commit changed the refcount problem from "doesn't work" to "kernel panic."

remap_file_pages calls mmap_region, which may merge the VMA with other existing VMAs, and free "vma". This can lead to a use-after-free bug. Avoid the bug by remembering vm_flags before calling mmap_region, and not trying to dereference vma later.

Commit 7225522b ("mm: munlock: batch non-THP page isolation and munlock+putback using pagevec" introduced __munlock_pagevec() to speed up munlock by holding lru_lock over multiple isolated pages. Pages that fail to be isolated are put_page()d immediately, also within the lock. This can lead to deadlock when __munlock_pagevec() becomes the holder of the last page pin and put_page() leads to __page_cache_release() which also locks lru_lock. The deadlock has been observed by Sasha Levin using trinity. This patch avoids the deadlock by deferring put_page() operations until lru_lock is released. Another pagevec (which is also used by later phases of the function is reused to gather the pages for put_page() operation.

Since commit ff6a6da6 ("mm: accelerate munlock() treatment of THP pages") munlock skips tail pages of a munlocked THP page. However, when the head page already has PageMlocked unset, it will not skip the tail pages. Commit 7225522b ("mm: munlock: batch non-THP page isolation and munlock+putback using pagevec") has added a PageTransHuge() check which contains VM_BUG_ON(PageTail(page)). Sasha Levin found this triggered using trinity, on the first tail page of a THP page without PageMlocked flag. This patch fixes the issue by skipping tail pages also in the case when PageMlocked flag is unset. There is still a possibility of race with THP page split between clearing PageMlocked and determining how many pages to skip. The race might result in former tail pages not being skipped, which is however no longer a bug, as during the skip the PageTail flags are cleared. However this race also affects correctness of NR_MLOCK accounting, which is to be fixed in a separate patch.
