Impact: Bug fix This fixes a long standing bug in the machine check code. On resume the boot CPU wouldn't get its vendor specific state like thermal handling reinitialized. This means the boot cpu wouldn't ever get any thermal events reported again. Call the respective initialization functions on resume v2: Remove ancient init because they don't have a resume device anyways. Pointed out by Thomas Gleixner. v3: Now fix the Subject too to reflect v2 change Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: H.

It should be called once per jiffy, and here it is called no less than 22 times in about 3.5 milliseconds, meaning one call every 160 microseconds or so. Why do we need to call rcu_pending() and rcu_check_callbacks() from the idle loop of 32-bit x86, especially given that no other architecture does this? The following patch removes the call to rcu_pending() and rcu_check_callbacks() from the x86 32-bit idle loop in order to reduce the softirq load on idle systems.

Between 2.6.23 and 2.6.24-rc1 a change was made that broke IBM LS21 systems that had the HPET enabled in the BIOS, resulting in boot hangs for x86_64. Specifically commit b8ce3359, which merges the i386 and x86_64 HPET code. Prior to this commit, when we setup the HPET timers in x86_64, we did the following: hpet_writel(HPET_TN_ENABLE | HPET_TN_PERIODIC | HPET_TN_SETVAL | HPET_TN_32BIT, HPET_T0_CFG); However after the i386/x86_64 HPET merge, we do the following: cfg = hpet_readl(HPET_Tn_CFG(timer)); cfg |= HPET_TN_ENABLE | HPET_TN_PERIODIC | HPET_TN_SETVAL | HPET_TN_32BIT; hpet_writel(cfg, HPET_Tn_CFG(timer)); However on LS21s with HPET enabled in the BIOS, the HPET_T0_CFG register boots with Level triggered interrupts (HPET_TN_LEVEL) enabled. This causes the periodic interrupt to be not so periodic, and that results in the boot time hang I reported earlier in the delay calibration. My fix: Always disable HPET_TN_LEVEL when setting up periodic mode. Signed-off-by: John Stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Impact: avoid access to percpu vars in preempible context They are intended to be used whenever there's the possibility that there's some stale state which is going to be overwritten with a queued update, or to force a state change when we may be in lazy mode. Either way, we could end up calling it with preemption enabled, so wrap the functions in their own little preempt-disable section so they can be safely called in any context (though preemption should never be enabled if we're actually in a lazy state).

Impact: fix race leading to crash under KVM and Xen The CPA code may be called while we're in lazy mmu update mode - for example, when using DEBUG_PAGE_ALLOC and doing a slab allocation in an interrupt handler which interrupted a lazy mmu update. In this case, the in-memory pagetable state may be out of date due to pending queued updates. We need to flush any pending updates before inspecting the page table. Similarly, we must explicitly flush any modifications CPA may have made (which comes down to flushing queued operations when flushing the TLB).

Ptrace_detach() races with __ptrace_unlink() if the traced task is reaped while detaching. This might cause a double-free of the BTS buffer. Change the ptrace_detach() path to only do the memory accounting in ptrace_bts_detach() and leave the buffer free to ptrace_bts_untrace() which will be called from __ptrace_unlink(). The fix follows a proposal from Oleg Nesterov. Reported-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

I noticed by pure accident we have ptrace_fork() and friends. This was added by "x86, bts: add fork and exit handling", commit bf53de90. I can't test this, ds_request_bts() returns -EOPNOTSUPP, but I strongly believe this needs the fix. I think something like this program int main(void) { int pid = fork(); if (!pid) { ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0, NULL, NULL); kill(getpid(), SIGSTOP); fork(); } else { struct ptrace_bts_config bts = { .flags = PTRACE_BTS_O_ALLOC, .size = 4 * 4096, }; wait(NULL); ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, NULL, PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK); ptrace(PTRACE_BTS_CONFIG, pid, &bts, sizeof(bts)); ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, NULL, NULL); sleep(1); } return 0; } should crash the kernel. If the task is traced by its natural parent ptrace_reparented() returns 0 but we should clear ->btsxxx anyway.

do_device_not_available() is the handler for #NM and it declares that it takes a unsigned long and calls math_emu(), which takes a long argument and surprisingly expects the stack frame starting at the zero argument would match struct math_emu_info, which isn't true regardless of configuration in the current code. This patch makes do_device_not_available() take struct pt_regs like other exception handlers and initialize struct math_emu_info with pointer to it and pass pointer to the math_emu_info to math_emulate() like normal C functions do. This way, unless gcc makes a copy of struct pt_regs in do_device_not_available(), the register frame is correctly accessed regardless of kernel configuration or compiler used. This doesn't fix all math_emu problems but it at least gets it somewhat working. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Commit 6194ba6f ("x86: don't special-case pmd allocations as much") made changes to the way we handle pmd allocations, and while doing that it dropped a call to paravirt_release_pd on the pgd page from the pgd_dtor code path. As a result of this missing release, the hypervisor is now unaware of the pgd page being freed, and as a result it ends up tracking this page as a page table page. After this the guest may start using the same page for other purposes, and depending on what use the page is put to, it may result in various performance and/or functional issues ( hangs, reboots). Since this release is only required for VMI, I now release the pgd page from the (vmi)_pgd_free hook.

On an x86 system which doesn't support global mappings, __supported_pte_mask has _PAGE_GLOBAL clear, to make sure it never appears in the PTE. pfn_pte() and so on will enforce it with: static inline pte_t pfn_pte(unsigned long page_nr, pgprot_t pgprot) { return __pte((((phys_addr_t)page_nr << PAGE_SHIFT) | pgprot_val(pgprot)) & __supported_pte_mask); } However, we overload _PAGE_GLOBAL with _PAGE_PROTNONE on non-present ptes to distinguish them from swap entries. However, applying __supported_pte_mask indiscriminately will clear the bit and corrupt the pte. I guess the best fix is to only apply __supported_pte_mask to present ptes. This seems like the right solution to me, as it means we can completely ignore the issue of overlaps between the present pte bits and the non-present pte-as-swap entry use of the bits. __supported_pte_mask contains the set of flags we support on the current hardware. We also use bits in the pte for things like logically present ptes with no permissions, and swap entries for swapped out pages. We should only apply __supported_pte_mask to present ptes, because otherwise we may destroy other information being stored in the ptes.

Impact: fix to enable APIC for AMD Fam10h on chipsets with a missing/b0rked ACPI MP table (MADT) Booting a 32bit kernel on an AMD Fam10h CPU running on chipsets with missing/b0rked MP table leads to a hang pretty early in the boot process due to the APIC not being initialized.

The host really shouldn't be notifying us of config changes before the device status is VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER or VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK. However, if we do happen to be interrupted while we're not attached to a driver, we really shouldn't oops. Prevent this simply by checking that device->driver is non-NULL before trying to notify the driver of config changes. Problem observed by doing a "set_link virtio.0 down" with QEMU before the net driver had been loaded.

Current refcounting for modules (done if CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD=y) is using a lot of memory. Each 'struct module' contains an [NR_CPUS] array of full cache lines. This patch uses existing infrastructure (percpu_modalloc() & percpu_modfree()) to allocate percpu space for the refcount storage. Instead of wasting NR_CPUS*128 bytes (on i386), we now use nr_cpu_ids*sizeof(local_t) bytes. On a typical distro, where NR_CPUS=8, shiping 2000 modules, we reduce size of module files by about 2 Mbytes. (1Kb per module) Instead of having all refcounters in the same memory node - with TLB misses because of vmalloc() - this new implementation permits to have better NUMA properties, since each CPU will use storage on its preferred node, thanks to percpu storage.
