This patch addresses a couple of problems. One was the case when the hardlockup failed to start, it also failed to start the softlockup. There were valid cases when the hardlockup shouldn't start and that shouldn't block the softlockup (no lapic, bios controls perf counters). The second problem was when the hardlockup failed to start on boxes (from a no lapic or bios controlled perf counter case), it reported failure to the cpu notifier chain. This blocked the notifier from continuing to start other more critical pieces of cpu bring-up (in our case based on a 2.6.32 fork, it was the mce). As a result, during soft cpu online/offline testing, the system would panic when a cpu was offlined because the cpu notifier would succeed in processing a watchdog disable cpu event and would panic in the mce case as a result of un-initialized variables from a never executed cpu up event. I realized the hardlockup/softlockup cases are really just debugging aids and should never impede the progress of a cpu up/down event. Therefore I modified the code to always return NOTIFY_OK and instead rely on printks to inform the user of problems. Signed-off-by:

When a cpu is considered stuck, instead of limping along and just printing a warning, it is sometimes preferred to just panic, let kdump capture the vmcore and reboot. This gets the machine back into a stable state quickly while saving the info that got it into a stuck state to begin with. Add a Kconfig option to allow users to set the hardlockup to panic by default. Also add in a 'nmi_watchdog=nopanic' to override this. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix strncmp length] Signed-off-by:

Systems with unmaskable interrupts such as SMIs may massively underestimate loops_per_jiffy, and fail to converge anywhere near the real value. A case seen on x86_64 was an initial estimate of 256<<12, which converged to 511<<12 where the real value should have been over 630<<12. This admitedly requires bypassing the TSC calibration (lpj_fine), and a failure to settle in the direct calibration too, but is physically possible. This failure does not depend on my previous calibration optimisation, but by luck is easy to fix with the optimisation in place with a trivial retry loop. In the context of the optimised converging method, as we can no longer trust the starting estimate, enlarge the search bounds exponentially so that the number of retries is logarithmically bounded.

Binary chop with a jiffy-resync on each step to find an upper bound is slow, so just race in a tight-ish loop to find an underestimate. If done with lots of individual steps, sometimes several hundreds of iterations would be required, which would impose a significant overhead, and make the initial estimate very low. By taking slowly increasing steps there will be less overhead. E.g. an x86_64 2.67GHz could have fitted in 613 individual small delays, but in reality should have been able to fit in a single delay 644 times longer, so underestimated by 31 steps. To reach the equivalent of 644 small delays with the accelerating scheme now requires about 130 iterations, so has <1/4th of the overhead, and can therefore be expected to underestimate by only 7 steps. As now we have a better initial estimate we can binary chop over a smaller range. With the loop overhead in the initial estimate kept low, and the step sizes moderate, we won't have under-estimated by much, so chose as tight a range as we can. Signed-off-by:

The motivation for this patch series is that currently our OMAP calibrates itself using the trial-and-error binary chop fallback that some other architectures no longer need to perform. This is a lengthy process, taking 0.2s in an environment where boot time is of great interest. Patch 2/4 has two optimisations. Firstly, it replaces the initial repeated- doubling to find the relevant power of 2 with a tight loop that just does as much as it can in a jiffy. Secondly, it doesn't binary chop over an entire power of 2 range, it choses a much smaller range based on how much it squeezed in, and failed to squeeze in, during the first stage. Both are significant optimisations, and bring our calibration down from 23 jiffies to 5, and, in the process, often arrive at a more accurate lpj value. The 'bands' and 'sub-logarithmic' growth may look over-engineered, but they only cost a small level of inaccuracy in the initial guess (for all architectures) in order to avoid the very large inaccuracies that appeared during testing (on x86_64 architectures, and presumably others with less metronomic operation). Note that due to the existence of the TSC and other timers, the x86_64 will not typically use this fallback routine, but I wanted to code defensively, able to cope with all kinds of processor behaviours and kernel command line options. Patch 3/4 is an additional trap for the nightmare scenario where the initial estimate is very inaccurate, possibly due to things like SMIs. It simply retries with a larger bound. Stephen said: I tried this patch set out on an MSM7630. : : Before: : : Calibrating delay loop... 681.57 BogoMIPS (lpj=3407872) : : After: : : Calibrating delay loop... 680.75 BogoMIPS (lpj=3403776) : : But the really good news is calibration time dropped from ~247ms to ~56ms. : Sadly we won't be able to benefit from this should my udelay patches make : it into ARM because we would be using calibrate_delay_direct() instead (at : least on machines who choose to). Can we somehow reapply the logic behind : this to calibrate_delay_direct()? That would be even better, but this is : definitely a boot time improvement. : : Or maybe we could just replace calibrate_delay_direct() with this fallback : calculation? If __delay() is a thin wrapper around read_current_timer() : it should work just as well (plus patch 3 makes it handle SMIs). I'll try : that out. This patch: ... so that it can be modified more clinically. This is almost entirely cosmetic. The only change to the operation is that the global variable is only set once after the estimation is completed, rather than taking on all the intermediate values. However, there are no readers of that variable, so this change is unimportant. Signed-off-by:

Cleanup: kill the dead code which does nothing but complicates the code and confuses the reader. sys_unshare(CLONE_THREAD/SIGHAND/VM) is not really implemented, and I doubt very much it will ever work. At least, nobody even tried since the original 99d1419d ("unshare system call -v5: system call handler function") was applied more than 4 years ago. And the code is not consistent. unshare_thread() always fails unconditionally, while unshare_sighand() and unshare_vm() pretend to work if there is nothing to unshare. Remove unshare_thread(), unshare_sighand(), unshare_vm() helpers and related variables and add a simple CLONE_THREAD | CLONE_SIGHAND| CLONE_VM check into check_unshare_flags(). Also, move the "CLONE_NEWNS needs CLONE_FS" check from check_unshare_flags() to sys_unshare(). This looks more consistent and matches the similar do_sysvsem check in sys_unshare(). Note: with or without this patch "atomic_read(mm->mm_users) > 1" can give a false positive due to get_task_mm(). Signed-off-by:

Up to 2.6.22, you could use remap_file_pages(2) on a tmpfs file or a shared mapping of /dev/zero or a shared anonymous mapping. In 2.6.23 we disabled it by default, but set VM_CAN_NONLINEAR to enable it on safe mappings. We made sure to set it in shmem_mmap() for tmpfs files, but missed it in shmem_zero_setup() for the others. Fix that at last. Reported-by:

Currently memblock_reserve() or memblock_free() don't handle overlaps of any kind. There is some special casing for coalescing exactly adjacent regions but that's about it. This is annoying because typically memblock_reserve() is used to mark regions passed by the firmware as reserved and we all know how much we can trust our firmwares... Also, with the current code, if we do something it doesn't handle right such as trying to memblock_reserve() a large range spanning multiple existing smaller reserved regions for example, or doing overlapping reservations, it can silently corrupt the internal region array, causing odd errors much later on, such as allocations returning reserved regions etc... This patch rewrites the underlying functions that add or remove a region to the arrays. The new code is a lot more robust as it fully handles overlapping regions. It's also, imho, simpler than the previous implementation. In addition, while doing so, I found a bug where if we fail to double the array while adding a region, we would remove the last region of the array rather than the region we just allocated. This fixes it too. Signed-off-by:

For range-cyclic writeback (e.g. kupdate), the writeback code sets a continuation point of the next writeback to mapping->writeback_index which is set the page after the last written page. This happens so that we evenly write the whole file even if pages in it get continuously redirtied. However, in some cases, sequential writer is writing in the middle of the page and it just redirties the last written page by continuing from that. For example with an application which uses a file as a big ring buffer we see: [1st writeback session] ... flush-8:0-2743 4571: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898514 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4571: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898522 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4571: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898530 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4571: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898538 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4571: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898546 + 8 kworker/0:1-11 4571: block_rq_issue: 8,0 W 0 () 94898514 + 40 >> flush-8:0-2743 4571: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898554 + 8 >> flush-8:0-2743 4571: block_rq_issue: 8,0 W 0 () 94898554 + 8 [2nd writeback session after 35sec] flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898562 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898570 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898578 + 8 ... kworker/0:1-11 4606: block_rq_issue: 8,0 W 0 () 94898562 + 640 kworker/0:1-11 4606: block_rq_issue: 8,0 W 0 () 94899202 + 72 ... flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94899962 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94899970 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94899978 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94899986 + 8 flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94899994 + 8 kworker/0:1-11 4606: block_rq_issue: 8,0 W 0 () 94899962 + 40 >> flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_bio_queue: 8,0 W 94898554 + 8 >> flush-8:0-2743 4606: block_rq_issue: 8,0 W 0 () 94898554 + 8 So we seeked back to 94898554 after we wrote all the pages at the end of the file. This extra seek seems unnecessary. If we continue writeback from the last written page, we can avoid it and do not cause harm to other cases. The original intent of even writeout over the whole file is preserved and if the page does not get redirtied pagevec_lookup_tag() just skips it. As an exceptional case, when I/O error happens, set done_index to the next page as the comment in the code suggests. Tested-by:Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Signed-off-by:
