Revert commit 2fbd07a5, as this commit breaks an IBM platform with quad-core Xeon cpu's. According to Suresh, this might be an IBM platform issue, as on other Intel platforms with <= 8 logical cpu's, logical flat mode works fine irespective of physical apic id values (inline with the xapic architecture). Revert this for now because of the IBM platform breakage. Another version will be re-submitted after the complete analysis.

The list macros use LIST_POISON1 and LIST_POISON2 as undereferencable pointers in order to trap erronous use of freed list_heads. Unfortunately userspace can arrange for those pointers to actually be dereferencable, potentially turning an oops to an expolit. To avoid this allow architectures (currently x86_64 only) to override the default values for these pointers with truly-undereferencable values. This is easy on x86_64 as the virtual address space is large and contains areas that cannot be mapped. Other 64-bit architectures will likely find similar unmapped ranges.

Access to the ASB2305's PCnet32 NIC doesn't work correctly because when the NIC attempts to update the ring buffer flags by DMA, the change to RAM crops up about 17uS after the interrupt line is asserted. This is almost certainly due to a bug in the PCI bridge FPGA on that board. We can get around this by making dma_alloc_coherent() put the ring buffer in the SRAM attached to the PCI bridge rather than in the SDRAM.

Insert PCI root bus resources for the MN10300-based ASB2305 development kit motherboard. This is required because the CPU's window onto the PCI bus address space is considerably smaller than the CPU's full address space and non-PCI devices lie outside of the PCI window that we might want to access. Without this patch, the PCI root bus uses the platform-level bus resources, and these are then confined to the PCI window, thus making platform_device_add() reject devices outside of this window. We also add a reservation for the PCI SRAM region.

gcc 4.2.1 for MN10300 is more agressive than the older gcc in reordering/moving other insns between an insn that sets flags and an insn that uses those flags. This leads to trouble with asm statements which are missing an explicit "cc" clobber. This patch adds the explicit "cc" clobber to asm statements which do indeed clobber the condition flags.

This fixes a signal stack handling problem in the MN10300 arch. When new threads are cloned with CLONE_VM, they don't inherit the alternate signal stack. They do share the signal flags, though. When deciding whether to use an alternate stack, the arch code needs to check to make sure the task struct contains a valid alternate stack. This patch fixes the MN10300 arch by using the sas_ss_flags() test provided by sched.h rather than the on_sig_stack() test which is insufficient by itself.

A long time ago we regarded zero page as file_rss and vm_normal_page doesn't return NULL. But now, we reinstated ZERO_PAGE and vm_normal_page's implementation can return NULL in case of zero page. Also we don't count it with file_rss any more. Then, RSS and PSS can't be matched. For consistency, Let's ignore zero page in smaps_pte_range.

The main bug was that 'blk_cleanup_queue()' was called while the block device could still be in use, for example, because the card was removed while files were still open. In addition, to be sure that 'mmc_request()' will get called for all new requests (so it can error them out), the queue is emptied during cleanup. This is done after the worker thread is stopped to avoid racing with it. Finally, it is not a device error for this to be happening, so quiet the (sometimes very many) error messages.

When a card is removed before mmc_blk_probe() has called add_disk(), then the minor field is uninitialized and has value 0. This caused mmc_blk_put() to always release devidx 0 even if 0 was still in use. Then the next mmc_blk_probe() used the first free idx of 0, which oopses in sysfs, since it is used by another card.

Commit d899bf7b (procfs: provide stack information for threads) introduced to show stack information in /proc/{pid}/status. But it cause large performance regression. Unfortunately /proc/{pid}/status is used ps command too and ps is one of most important component. Because both to take mmap_sem and page table walk are heavily operation. If many process run, the ps performance is, [before d899bf7b] % perf stat ps >/dev/null Performance counter stats for 'ps': 4090.435806 task-clock-msecs # 0.032 CPUs 229 context-switches # 0.000 M/sec 0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec 234 page-faults # 0.000 M/sec 8587565207 cycles # 2099.425 M/sec 9866662403 instructions # 1.149 IPC 3789415411 cache-references # 926.409 M/sec 30419509 cache-misses # 7.437 M/sec 128.859521955 seconds time elapsed [after d899bf7b] % perf stat ps > /dev/null Performance counter stats for 'ps': 4305.081146 task-clock-msecs # 0.028 CPUs 480 context-switches # 0.000 M/sec 2 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec 237 page-faults # 0.000 M/sec 9021211334 cycles # 2095.480 M/sec 10605887536 instructions # 1.176 IPC 3612650999 cache-references # 839.160 M/sec 23917502 cache-misses # 5.556 M/sec 152.277819582 seconds time elapsed Thus, this patch revert it.

When print-fatal-signals is enabled it's possible to dump any memory reachable by the kernel to the log by simply jumping to that address from user space. Or crash the system if there's some hardware with read side effects. The fatal signals handler will dump 16 bytes at the execution address, which is fully controlled by ring 3. In addition when something jumps to a unmapped address there will be up to 16 additional useless page faults, which might be potentially slow (and at least is not very efficient) Fortunately this option is off by default and only there on i386. But fix it by checking for kernel addresses and also stopping when there's a page fault.

The LTP cgroup test suite generates a "kernel BUG at kernel/cgroup.c:790!" here in cgroup_diput(): /* * if we're getting rid of the cgroup, refcount should ensure * that there are no pidlists left. */ BUG_ON(!list_empty(&cgrp->pidlists)); The cgroup pidlist rework in 2.6.32 generates the BUG_ON, which is caused when pidlist_array_load() calls cgroup_pidlist_find(): (1) if a matching cgroup_pidlist is found, it down_write's the mutex of the pre-existing cgroup_pidlist, and increments its use_count. (2) if no matching cgroup_pidlist is found, then a new one is allocated, it down_write's its mutex, and the use_count is set to 0. (3) the matching, or new, cgroup_pidlist gets returned back to pidlist_array_load(), which increments its use_count -- regardless whether new or pre-existing -- and up_write's the mutex. So if a matching list is ever encountered by cgroup_pidlist_find() during the life of a cgroup directory, it results in an inflated use_count value, preventing it from ever getting released by cgroup_release_pid_array(). Then if the directory is subsequently removed, cgroup_diput() hits the BUG_ON() when it finds that the directory's cgroup is still populated with a pidlist. The patch simply removes the use_count increment when a matching pidlist is found by cgroup_pidlist_find(), because it gets bumped by the calling pidlist_array_load() function while still protected by the list's mutex.
