Supporting decoding the ioctl 'request' parameter needs more work to properly support more architectures, the current approach doesn't work on at least powerpc and sparc, as reported by Ben Hutchings in http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1391593985.3003.48.camel@deadeye.wl.decadent.org.uk .

"perf list" listing of hardware events doesn't work on older ARM devices. The change enabling event detection: commit b41f1cec Author: Namhyung Kim <namhyung.kim@lge.com> Date: Tue Aug 27 11:41:53 2013 +0900 perf list: Skip unsupported events uses the following code in tools/perf/util/parse-events.c: struct perf_event_attr attr = { .type = type, .config = config, .disabled = 1, .exclude_kernel = 1, }; On ARM machines pre-dating the Cortex-A15 this doesn't work, as these machines don't support .exclude_kernel. So starting with 3.12 "perf list" does not report any hardware events at all on older machines (seen on Rasp-Pi, Pandaboard, Beagleboard, etc). This version of the patch makes changes suggested by Namhyung Kim to check for EACCESS and retry (instead of just dropping the exclude_kernel) so we can properly handle machines where /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid is set to 2.

Fix perf-probe not to add offset value twice to uprobe probe address when post processing. The tevs[i].point.address struct member is the address of symbol+offset, but current perf-probe adjusts the point.address by adding the offset. As a result, the probe address becomes symbol+offset+offset. This may cause unexpected code corruption. Urgent fix is needed. Without this fix: --- # ./perf probe -x ./perf dso__load_vmlinux+4 # ./perf probe -l probe_perf:dso__load_vmlinux (on 0x000000000006d2b8) # nm ./perf.orig | grep dso__load_vmlinux\$ 000000000046d0a0 T dso__load_vmlinux --- You can see the given offset is 3 but the actual probed address is dso__load_vmlinux+8. With this fix: --- # ./perf probe -x ./perf dso__load_vmlinux+4 # ./perf probe -l probe_perf:dso__load_vmlinux (on 0x000000000006d2b4) --- Now the problem is fixed.

A bunch of unknown NMIs have popped up on a Pentium4 recently when booting into a kdump kernel. This was exposed because the watchdog timer went from 60 seconds down to 10 seconds (increasing the ability to reproduce this problem). What is happening is on boot up of the second kernel (the kdump one), the previous nmi_watchdogs were enabled on thread 0 and thread 1. The second kernel only initializes one cpu but the perf counter on thread 1 still counts. Normally in a kdump scenario, the other cpus are blocking in an NMI loop, but more importantly their local apics have the performance counters disabled (iow LVTPC is masked). So any counters that fire are masked and never get through to the second kernel. However, on a P4 the local apic is shared by both threads and thread1's PMI (despite being configured to only interrupt thread1) will generate an NMI on thread0. Because thread0 knows nothing about this NMI, it is seen as an unknown NMI. This would be fine because it is a kdump kernel, strange things happen what is the big deal about a single unknown NMI. Unfortunately, the P4 comes with another quirk: clearing the overflow bit to prevent a stream of NMIs. This is the problem. The kdump kernel can not execute because of the endless NMIs that happen. To solve this, I instrumented the p4 perf init code, to walk all the counters and zero them out (just like a normal reset would). Now when the counters go off, they do not generate anything and no unknown NMIs are seen. I tested this on a P4 we have in our lab. After two or three crashes, I could normally reproduce the problem. Now after 10 crashes, everything continues to boot correctly.

On a P4 box stressing perf with: ./perf record -o perf.data ./perf stat -v ./perf bench all it was noticed that a slew of unknown NMIs would pop out rather quickly. Painfully debugging this ancient platform, led me to notice cross cpu counter corruption. The P4 machine is special in that it has 18 counters, half are used for cpu0 and the other half is for cpu1 (or all 18 if hyperthreading is disabled). But the splitting of the counters has to be actively managed by the software. In this particular bug, one of the cpu0 specific counters was being used by cpu1 and caused all sorts of random unknown nmis. I am not entirely sure on the corruption path, but what happens is: o perf schedules a group with p4_pmu_schedule_events() o inside p4_pmu_schedule_events(), it notices an hwc pointer is being reused but for a different cpu, so it 'swaps' the config bits and returns the updated 'assign' array with a _new_ index. o perf schedules another group with p4_pmu_schedule_events() o inside p4_pmu_schedule_events(), it notices an hwc pointer is being reused (the same one as above) but for the _same_ cpu [BUG!!], so it updates the 'assign' array to use the _old_ (wrong cpu) index because the _new_ index is in an earlier part of the 'assign' array (and hasn't been committed yet). o perf commits the transaction using the wrong index and corrupts the other cpu The [BUG!!] is because the 'hwc->config' is updated but not the 'hwc->idx'. So the check for 'p4_should_swap_ts()' is correct the first time around but incorrect the second time around (because hwc->config was updated in between). I think the spirit of perf was to not modify anything until all the transactions had a chance to 'test' if they would succeed, and if so, commit atomically. However, P4 breaks this spirit by touching the hwc->config element. So my fix is to continue the un-perf like breakage, by assigning hwc->idx to -1 on swap to tell follow up group scheduling to find a new index. Of course if the transaction fails rolling this back will be difficult, but that is not different than how the current code works. :-) And I wasn't sure how much effort to cleanup the code I should do for a platform that is almost 10 years old by now. Hence the lazy fix.

FPGA implementations of the Cortex-A57 and Cortex-A53 are now available in the form of the SMM-A57 and SMM-A53 Soft Macrocell Models (SMMs) for Versatile Express. As these attach to a Motherboard Express V2M-P1 it would be useful to have support for some V2M-P1 peripherals enabled by default. Additionally a couple of of features have been introduced since the last defconfig update (CMA, jump labels) that would be good to have enabled by default to ensure they are build and boot tested. This patch updates the arm64 defconfig to enable support for these devices and features. The arm64 Kconfig is modified to select HAVE_PATA_PLATFORM, which is required to enable support for the CompactFlash controller on the V2M-P1. A few options which don't need to appear in defconfig are trimmed: * BLK_DEV - selected by default * EXPERIMENTAL - otherwise gone from the kernel * MII - selected by drivers which require it * USB_SUPPORT - selected by default Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

On arm64, these operations have been incorrectly implemented as follows: // A, B, C are independent memory locations <Access [A]> // atomic_op (B) 1: ldaxr x0, [B] // Exclusive load with acquire <op(B)> stlxr w1, x0, [B] // Exclusive store with release cbnz w1, 1b <Access [C]> The assumption here being that two half barriers are equivalent to a full barrier, so the only permitted ordering would be A -> B -> C (where B is the atomic operation involving both a load and a store). Unfortunately, this is not the case by the letter of the architecture and, in fact, the accesses to A and C are permitted to pass their nearest half barrier resulting in orderings such as Bl -> A -> C -> Bs or Bl -> C -> A -> Bs (where Bl is the load-acquire on B and Bs is the store-release on B). This is a clear violation of the full barrier requirement. The simple way to fix this is to implement the same algorithm as ARMv7 using explicit barriers: <Access [A]> // atomic_op (B) dmb ish // Full barrier 1: ldxr x0, [B] // Exclusive load <op(B)> stxr w1, x0, [B] // Exclusive store cbnz w1, 1b dmb ish // Full barrier <Access [C]> but this has the undesirable effect of introducing *two* full barrier instructions. A better approach is actually the following, non-intuitive sequence: <Access [A]> // atomic_op (B) 1: ldxr x0, [B] // Exclusive load <op(B)> stlxr w1, x0, [B] // Exclusive store with release cbnz w1, 1b dmb ish // Full barrier <Access [C]> The simple observations here are: - The dmb ensures that no subsequent accesses (e.g. the access to C) can enter or pass the atomic sequence. - The dmb also ensures that no prior accesses (e.g. the access to A) can pass the atomic sequence. - Therefore, no prior access can pass a subsequent access, or vice-versa (i.e. A is strictly ordered before C). - The stlxr ensures that no prior access can pass the store component of the atomic operation. The only tricky part remaining is the ordering between the ldxr and the access to A, since the absence of the first dmb means that we're now permitting re-ordering between the ldxr and any prior accesses. From an (arbitrary) observer's point of view, there are two scenarios: 1. We have observed the ldxr. This means that if we perform a store to [B], the ldxr will still return older data. If we can observe the ldxr, then we can potentially observe the permitted re-ordering with the access to A, which is clearly an issue when compared to the dmb variant of the code. Thankfully, the exclusive monitor will save us here since it will be cleared as a result of the store and the ldxr will retry. Notice that any use of a later memory observation to imply observation of the ldxr will also imply observation of the access to A, since the stlxr/dmb ensure strict ordering. 2. We have not observed the ldxr. This means we can perform a store and influence the later ldxr. However, that doesn't actually tell us anything about the access to [A], so we've not lost anything here either when compared to the dmb variant. This patch implements this solution for our barriered atomic operations, ensuring that we satisfy the full barrier requirements where they are needed.

Remove use of regmap_irq_get_virq() in driver probe which was conflicting with use of platform_get_irq_byname(). platform_get_irq_byname() already returns the VIRQ number due to MFD core translation so using regmap_irq_get_virq() on that returned value results in an incorrect IRQ being requested. The driver probes then fail because of this. Signed-off-by: Adam Thomson <Adam.Thomson.Opensource@diasemi.com> Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net>

To use spin_{un}lock_irq is dangerous if caller disabled interrupt. During aio buffer migration, we have a possibility to see the following call stack. aio_migratepage [disable interrupt] migrate_page_copy clear_page_dirty_for_io set_page_dirty __set_page_dirty_buffers __set_page_dirty spin_lock_irq This mean, current aio migration is a deadlockable. spin_lock_irqsave is a safer alternative and we should use it.

The following path will cause array out of bound. memblock_add_region() will always set nid in memblock.reserved to MAX_NUMNODES. In numa_register_memblks(), after we set all nid to correct valus in memblock.reserved, we called setup_node_data(), and used memblock_alloc_nid() to allocate memory, with nid set to MAX_NUMNODES. The nodemask_t type can be seen as a bit array. And the index is 0 ~ MAX_NUMNODES-1. After that, when we call node_set() in numa_clear_kernel_node_hotplug(), the nodemask_t got an index of value MAX_NUMNODES, which is out of [0 ~ MAX_NUMNODES-1]. See below: numa_init() |---> numa_register_memblks() | |---> memblock_set_node(memory) set correct nid in memblock.memory | |---> memblock_set_node(reserved) set correct nid in memblock.reserved | |...... | |---> setup_node_data() | |---> memblock_alloc_nid() here, nid is set to MAX_NUMNODES (1024) |...... |---> numa_clear_kernel_node_hotplug() |---> node_set() here, we have an index 1024, and overflowed This patch moves nid setting to numa_clear_kernel_node_hotplug() to fix this problem.
