Previously we could do subtype parsing and cache configuration in the same location.. but with the introduction of things like the SH7705 where we use SH-3 style probing with SH-4 style caches, this is no longer the case. As such, we move the probe code to a saner place. Signed-off-by:

The early printk() code was using a fixed PCLK value that was only sane in the SH7750 case. This updates the SCBRR value calculation to use CONFIG_SH_PCLK_FREQ instead and thus works on other subtypes as well (tested on SH4-202). Signed-off-by:

This updates some of the sh DMA drivers and core API. Previously modules had to register for the channels they were interested in, but now it's dealt with transparently by the API with only the number of physical channels needing to be specified by each module. Signed-off-by:

This patch fixes a problem where my new powerbook would sometimes hang or crash when changing CPU speed. We had schedule_timeout(HZ/1000) in there, intended to provide a delay of one millisecond. However, even with HZ=1000, it was (I believe) only waiting for the next jiffy before proceeding, which could be less than a millisecond. Changing the code to use msleep, and specifying a time of 1 jiffy + 1ms has fixed the problem. (When I looked at the msleep code, it appeared to me that msleep(1) with HZ=1000 would sleep for between 0 and 1ms.) Ben also asked me to remove the code that changes the AACK delay enable, after looking in the Darwin sources and seeing that Darwin does not change this in its corresponding code. Signed-off-by:

The main goal of this patch is to consolidate all the different but still fundamentally similar arch/*/kernel/irq.c code into the kernel/irq/ subsystem. There are 4 new files in the kernel/irq/ directory: - handle.c: core bits: __do_IRQ() and handle_IRQ_event(), callable from arch-specific irq.c code. - manage.c: the main driver apis - spurious.c: the handling of buggy interrupt sources. - autoprobe.c: probing of interrupts - older code but still in use. - proc.c: /proc/irq/ code. - internals.h for irq-core-internal interfaces not visible to drivers nor arch PIC code. An architecture enables the generic hardirq code by defining CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS in its arch Kconfig. People doing this conversion should check out the x86/x64/ppc/ppc64 patches for details - the conversion is quite straightforward but every converted function (i.e. every function removed from the arch irq.c) _must_ be matched to the generic version and if there is any detail that the generic code should do it has to be added to the generic code. All of the currently converted 4 architectures were converted like that, and the generic code was extended/fixed along the way. Other changes related to this patchset: - clean up the irq include files (linux/irq.h, linux/interrupt.h, linux/hardirq.h) and consolidate asm-*/[hard]irq.h. Note, to keep all non-touched architectures in an untouched state this consolidation is done carefully and strictly under CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS. Once the consolidation is done we can do a couple of final cleanups to reach the following logical splitup of 3 include files: linux/interrupt.h: driver-visible APIs and details linux/irq.h: core irq and arch-PIC code, internals asm-*/irq.h: arch PIC and irq delivery details the following include files will likely vanish: linux/hardirq.h merges into linux/irq.h asm-*/hardirq.h: merges into asm-*/irq.h asm-*/hw_irq.h: merges into asm-*/irq.h Christoph would like to do these once the current wave of cleanups gets in.

Take a process P1 that spawns a thread T (aka. a clone with CLONE_FILES). If P1 forks another process P2 (aka. not a clone) while T is blocked in a open() that should return file descriptor FD, then FD will be unusable in P2. This leads to strange behaviors in the context of P2: close(FD) returns EBADF, while dup2(a_valid_fd, FD) returns EBUSY and of course FD is never returned again by any syscall... testcase: #include <errno.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <sched.h> #include <signal.h> #include <string.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <asm/page.h> #define FIFO "/tmp/bug_fifo" #define FD 0 /* * This program is meant to show that calling fork() while a clone spawned * with CLONE_FILES is blocked in open() makes a fd number unusable in the * child. * * * Parent Clone Child * | * clone(CLONE_FILES)-

Marcelo noticed that the BUG_ON in __set_page_dirty_nobuffers doesn't make much sense: it lost its way in 2.6.7, amidst so many page_mappings! It's supposed to be checking that, although page->mapping may suddenly go NULL from truncation, and although tmpfs swizzles page_mapping(page) between tmpfs inode address_space and swapper_space, there's sufficient stabilization while here in __set_page_dirty_nobuffers that the mapping after we locked mapping->tree_lock is the same as the mapping before we locked mapping->tree_lock i.e. the lock we hold is the right one.

I've found some problems with exec and fixed them with this patch to de_thread. The second problem is that a multithreaded exec loses all pending signals. This is violation of POSIX rules. But a moment's thought will show it's also just not desireable: if you send a process a SIGTERM while it's in the middle of calling exec, you expect either the original program in that process or the new program being exec'd to handle that signal or be killed by it. As it stands now, you can try to kill a process and have that signal just evaporate if it's multithreaded and calls exec just then. I really don't know what the rationale was behind the de_thread code that allocates a new signal_struct. It doesn't make any sense now. The other code there ensures that the old signal_struct is no longer shared. Except for posix-timers, all the state there is stuff you want to keep. So my changes just keep the old structs when they are no longer shared, and all the right state is retained (after clearing out posix-timers). The final bug is that the cumulative statistics of dead threads and dead child processes are lost in the abandoned signal_struct. This is also fixed by holding on to it instead of replacing it.

Add up resource usage counters for live and dead threads to show aggregate per-process usage in /proc/<pid>/stat. This mirrors the new getrusage() semantics. /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/stat still has the per-thread usage. After moving the counter aggregation loop inside a task->sighand lock to avoid nasty race conditions, it has survived stress-testing with '(while true; do sleep 1 & done) & top -d 0.1' Signed-off-by:

The attached patch fixes a local_bh_enable() buglet: we first enabled softirqs then did we do local_softirq_pending() - often this is preemptible code. So this task could be preempted and there's no guarantee that softirq processing will occur (except the periodic timer tick). The race window is small but existent. This could result in packet processing latencies or timer expiration latencies - hard to detect and annoying bugs. The fix is to invoke softirqs with softirqs enabled but preemption still disabled. Patch is against 2.6.9-rc2-mm1. Signed-off-by:

There is a race between PTRACE_ATTACH and the real parent calling wait. For a moment, the task is put in PT_PTRACED but with its parent still pointing to its real_parent. In this circumstance, if the real parent calls wait without the WUNTRACED flag, he can see a stopped child status, which wait should never return without WUNTRACED when the caller is not using ptrace. Here it is not the caller that is using ptrace, but some third party. This patch avoids this race condition by adding the PT_ATTACHED flag to distinguish a real parent from a ptrace_attach parent when PT_PTRACED is set, and then having wait use this flag to confirm that things are in order and not consider the child ptraced when its ->ptrace flags are set but its parent links have not yet been switched. (ptrace_check_attach also uses it similarly to rule out a possible race with a bogus ptrace call by the real parent during ptrace_attach.) While looking into this, I noticed that every arch's sys_execve has: current->ptrace &= ~PT_DTRACE; with no locking at all. So, if an exec happens in a race with PTRACE_ATTACH, you could wind up with ->ptrace not having PT_PTRACED set because this store clobbered it. That will cause later BUG hits because the parent links indicate ptracedness but the flag is not set. The patch corrects all the places I found to use task_lock around diddling ->ptrace when it's possible to be racing with ptrace_attach. (The ptrace operation code itself doesn't have this issue because it already excludes anyone else being in ptrace_attach.) Signed-off-by:

POSIX specifies that the limit settings provided by getrlimit/setrlimit are shared by the whole process, not specific to individual threads. This patch changes the behavior of those calls to comply with POSIX. I've moved the struct rlimit array from task_struct to signal_struct, as it has the correct sharing properties. (This reduces kernel memory usage per thread in multithreaded processes by around 100/200 bytes for 32/64 machines respectively.) I took a fairly minimal approach to the locking issues with the newly shared struct rlimit array. It turns out that all the code that is checking limits really just needs to look at one word at a time (one rlim_cur field, usually). It's only the few places like getrlimit itself (and fork), that require atomicity in accessing a whole struct rlimit, so I just used a spin lock for them and no locking for most of the checks. If it turns out that readers of struct rlimit need more atomicity where they are now cheap, or less overhead where they are now atomic (e.g. fork), then seqcount is certainly the right thing to use for them instead of readers using the spin lock. Though it's in signal_struct, I didn't use siglock since the access to rlimits never needs to disable irqs and doesn't overlap with other siglock uses. Instead of adding something new, I overloaded task_lock(task->group_leader) for this; it is used for other things that are not likely to happen simultaneously with limit tweaking. To me that seems preferable to adding a word, but it would be trivial (and arguably cleaner) to add a separate lock for these users (or e.g. just use seqlock, which adds two words but is optimal for readers). Most of the changes here are just the trivial s/->rlim/->signal->rlim/. I stumbled across what must be a long-standing bug, in reparent_to_init. It does: memcpy(current->rlim, init_task.rlim, sizeof(*(current->rlim))); when surely it was intended to be: memcpy(current->rlim, init_task.rlim, sizeof(current->rlim)); As rlim is an array, the * in the sizeof expression gets the size of the first element, so this just changes the first limit (RLIMIT_CPU). This is for kernel threads, where it's clear that resetting all the rlimits is what you want. With that fixed, the setting of RLIMIT_FSIZE in nfsd is superfluous since it will now already have been reset to RLIM_INFINITY. The other subtlety is removing: tsk->rlim[RLIMIT_CPU].rlim_cur = RLIM_INFINITY; in exit_notify, which was to avoid a race signalling during self-reaping exit. As the limit is now shared, a dying thread should not change it for others. Instead, I avoid that race by checking current->state before the RLIMIT_CPU check. (Adding one new conditional in that path is now required one way or another, since if not for this check there would also be a new race with self-reaping exit later on clearing current->signal that would have to be checked for.) The one loose end left by this patch is with process accounting. do_acct_process temporarily resets the RLIMIT_FSIZE limit while writing the accounting record. I left this as it was, but it is now changing a limit that might be shared by other threads still running. I left this in a dubious state because it seems to me that processing accounting may already be more generally a dubious state when it comes to NPTL threads. I would think you would want one record per process, with aggregate data about all threads that ever lived in it, not a separate record for each thread. I don't use process accounting myself, but if anyone is interested in testing it out I could provide a patch to change it this way. One final note, this is not 100% to POSIX compliance in regards to rlimits. POSIX specifies that RLIMIT_CPU refers to a whole process in aggregate, not to each individual thread. I will provide patches later on to achieve that change, assuming this patch goes in first. Signed-off-by:
