Provides a way for NMI reported errors on x86 to notify the EDAC subsystem pending ECC errors by writing to a software state variable. Here's the reworked patch. I added an EDAC stub to the kernel so we can have variables that are in the kernel even if EDAC is a module. I also implemented the idea of using the chip driver to select error detection mode via module parameter and eliminate the kernel compile option. Please review/test. Thx! Also, I only made changes to some of the chipset drivers since I am unfamiliar with the other ones. We can add similar changes as we go. Signed-off-by:

Eric Wollesen ported the Bluesmoke Memory Controller driver (written by Doug Thompson) for the Intel 5000X/V/P (Blackford/Greencreek) chipset to the in kernel EDAC model.

Adding missing mem types for use in the sysfs presentation file for Memory Controller device objects. Signed-off-by:

Douglas Thompson authored
This patch adds the new 'class' of object to be managed, named: 'edac_device'. As a peer of the 'edac_mc' class of object, it provides a non-memory centric view of an ERROR DETECTING device in hardware. It provides a sysfs interface and an abstraction for varioius EDAC type devices. Multiple 'instances' within the class are possible, with each 'instance' able to have multiple 'blocks', and each 'block' having 'attributes'. At the 'block' level there are the 'ce_count' and 'ue_count' fields which the device driver can update and/or call edac_device_handle_XX() functions. At each higher level are additional 'total' count fields, which are a summation of counts below that level. This 'edac_device' has been used to capture and present ECC errors which are found in a a L1 and L2 system on a per CORE/CPU basis. Signed-off-by:

This is a large patch to refactor the original EDAC module in the kernel and to break it up into better file granularity, such that each source file contains a given subsystem of the EDAC CORE. Originally, the EDAC 'core' was contained in one source file: edac_mc.c with it corresponding edac_mc.h file. Now, there are the following files: edac_module.c The main module init/exit function and other overhead edac_mc.c Code handling the edac_mc class of object edac_mc_sysfs.c Code handling for sysfs presentation edac_pci_sysfs.c Code handling for PCI sysfs presentation edac_core.h CORE .h include file for 'edac_mc' and 'edac_device' drivers edac_module.h Internal CORE .h include file This forms a foundation upon which a later patch can create the 'edac_device' class of object code in a new file 'edac_device.c'.

lguest is a simple hypervisor for Linux on Linux. Unlike kvm it doesn't need VT/SVM hardware. Unlike Xen it's simply "modprobe and go". Unlike both, it's 5000 lines and self-contained. Performance is ok, but not great (-30% on kernel compile). But given its hackability, I expect this to improve, along with the paravirt_ops code which it supplies a complete example for. There's also a 64-bit version being worked on and other craziness. But most of all, lguest is awesome fun! Too much of the kernel is a big ball of hair. lguest is simple enough to dive into and hack, plus has some warts which scream "fork me!". This patch: This is the code and headers required to make an i386 kernel an lguest guest. Signed-off-by:

lguest does some fairly lowlevel things to support a host, which normal modules don't need: math_state_restore: When the guest triggers a Device Not Available fault, we need to be able to restore the FPU __put_task_struct: We need to hold a reference to another task for inter-guest I/O, and put_task_struct() is an inline function which calls __put_task_struct. access_process_vm: We need to access another task for inter-guest I/O. map_vm_area & __get_vm_area: We need to map the switcher shim (ie. monitor) at 0xFFC01000.

I converted the various export-returning functions to return -ENOENT instead of NULL, but missed a few cases. This particular case could cause actual bugs in the case of a krb5 client that doesn't match any ip-based client and that is trying to access a filesystem not exported to krb5 clients. Signed-off-by:

The value of nperbucket calculated here is too small--we should be rounding up instead of down--with the result that the index j in the following loop can overflow the raparm_hash array. At least in my case, the next thing in memory turns out to be export_table, so the symptoms I see are crashes caused by the appearance of four zeroed-out export entries in the first bucket of the hash table of exports (which were actually entries in the readahead cache, a pointer to which had been written to the export table in this initialization code). It looks like the bug was probably introduced with commit fce1456a ("knfsd: make the readahead params cache SMP-friendly").

page-writeback accounting is presently performed in the page-flags macros. This is inconsistent and a bit ugly and makes it awkward to implement per-backing_dev under-writeback page accounting. So move this accounting down to the callsite(s). Acked-by:

Remove is_in_rom() function. It doesn't actually serve the purpose it was intended to. If you look at the use of it _access_ok() (which is the only use of it) then it is obvious that most of memory is marked as access_ok. No point having is_in_rom() then, so remove it. Signed-off-by:

The fix to that race in alloc_fresh_huge_page() which could give an illegal node ID did not need nid_lock at all: the fix was to replace static int nid by static int prev_nid and do the work on local int nid. nid_lock did make sure that racers strictly roundrobin the nodes, but that's not something we need to enforce strictly. Kill nid_lock. Signed-off-by:

I've noticed lots of failures of vmalloc_32 on machines where it shouldn't have failed unless it was doing an atomic operation. Looking closely, I noticed that: #if defined(CONFIG_64BIT) && defined(CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32) #define GFP_VMALLOC32 GFP_DMA32 #elif defined(CONFIG_64BIT) && defined(CONFIG_ZONE_DMA) #define GFP_VMALLOC32 GFP_DMA #else #define GFP_VMALLOC32 GFP_KERNEL #endif Which seems to be incorrect, it should always -or- in the DMA flags on top of GFP_KERNEL, thus this patch. This fixes frequent errors launchin X with the nouveau DRM for example. Signed-off-by:

Work around a possible bug in the FRV compiler. What appears to be happening is that gcc resolves the __builtin_constant_p() in kmalloc() to true, but then fails to reduce the therefore constant conditions in the if-statements it guards to constant results. When compiling with -O2 or -Os, one single spurious error crops up in cpuup_callback() in mm/slab.c. This can be avoided by making the memsize variable const. Signed-off-by:
