2008-07-08ipv6: fix race between ipv6_del_addr and DAD timerAndrey Vagin
Consider the following scenario: ipv6_del_addr(ifp) ipv6_ifa_notify(RTM_DELADDR, ifp) ip6_del_rt(ifp->rt) after returning from the ipv6_ifa_notify and enabling BH-s back, but *before* calling the addrconf_del_timer the ifp->timer fires and: addrconf_dad_timer(ifp) addrconf_dad_completed(ifp) ipv6_ifa_notify(RTM_NEWADDR, ifp) ip6_ins_rt(ifp->rt) then return back to the ipv6_del_addr and: in6_ifa_put(ifp) inet6_ifa_finish_destroy(ifp) dst_release(&ifp->rt->u.dst) After this we have an ifp->rt inserted into fib6 lists, but queued for gc, which in turn can result in oopses in the fib6_run_gc. Maybe some other nasty things, but we caught only the oops in gc so far. The solution is to disarm the ifp->timer before flushing the rt from it.

invalidate_inode_pages2_range() takes page offset arguments, not byte ranges. Another thought is that individual pages might perhaps get evicted by VM pressure, in which case we might perhaps want to re-read not only the evicted page, but all subsequent pages too (in case the server returns more/less data per page so that the alignment of the next entry changes). We should therefore remove the condition that we only do this on page->index==0. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

The driver uses completely bogus rounding formula for calculating period from the IDECLK frequency which gives one-off period values (e.g. 11 ns with 100 MHz IDECLK) which in turn can lead to overclocked IDE transfer timings. Actually, rounding is just wrong in this case, so use a mere division for a safe result. While at it, also: - give 'ide_palm_clk' variable a more suitable name; - get rid of the useless 'ideclkp' variable; - drop the LISP stype 'p' postfix from the 'clkp' variable's name. :-) Signed-off-by: Sergei Shtylyov <sshtylyov@ru.mvista.com> Cc: mcherkashin@ru.mvista.com Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>

2008-07-08Correct hash flushing from huge_ptep_set_wrprotect()David Gibson
As Andy Whitcroft recently pointed out, the current powerpc version of huge_ptep_set_wrprotect() has a bug. It just calls ptep_set_wrprotect() which in turn calls pte_update() then hpte_need_flush() with the 'huge' argument set to 0. This will cause hpte_need_flush() to flush the wrong hash entries (of any). Andy's fix for this is already in the powerpc tree as commit 016b33c4958681c24056abed8ec95844a0da80a3. I have confirmed this is a real bug, not masked by some other synchronization, with a new testcase for libhugetlbfs. A process write a (MAP_PRIVATE) hugepage mapping, fork(), then alter the mapping and have the child incorrectly see the second write. Therefore, this should be fixed for 2.6.26, and for the stable tree. Here is a suitable patch for 2.6.26, which I think will also be suitable for the stable tree (neither of the headers in question has been changed much recently). It is cut down slighlty from Andy's original version, in that it does not include a 32-bit version of huge_ptep_set_wrprotect(). Currently, hugepages are not supported on any 32-bit powerpc platform. When they are, a suitable 32-bit version can be added - the only 32-bit hardware which supports hugepages does not use the conventional hashtable MMU and so will have different needs anyway.

2008-07-08x86: use FIRMWARE_MEMMAP on x86/E820Bernhard Walle

2008-07-08sysfs: add /sys/firmware/memmapBernhard Walle
This patch adds /sys/firmware/memmap interface that represents the BIOS (or Firmware) provided memory map. The tree looks like: /sys/firmware/memmap/0/start (hex number) end (hex number) type (string) ... /1/start end type With the following shell snippet one can print the memory map in the same form the kernel prints itself when booting on x86 (the E820 map). --------- 8< -------------------------- #!/bin/sh cd /sys/firmware/memmap for dir in * ; do start=$(cat $dir/start) end=$(cat $dir/end) type=$(cat $dir/type) printf "%016x-%016x (%s)\n" $start $[ $end +1] "$type" done --------- >8 -------------------------- That patch only provides the needed interface: 1. The sysfs interface. 2. The structure and enumeration definition. 3. The function firmware_map_add() and firmware_map_add_early() that should be called from architecture code (E820/EFI, for example) to add the contents to the interface. If the kernel is compiled without CONFIG_FIRMWARE_MEMMAP, the interface does nothing without cluttering the architecture-specific code with #ifdef's. The purpose of the new interface is kexec: While /proc/iomem represents the *used* memory map (e.g. modified via kernel parameters like 'memmap' and 'mem'), the /sys/firmware/memmap tree represents the unmodified memory map provided via the firmware. So kexec can: - use the original memory map for rebooting, - use the /proc/iomem for setting up the ELF core headers for kdump case that should only represent the memory of the system. The patch has been tested on i386 and x86_64.

2008-07-08x86_32: remove __PAGE_KERNEL(_EXEC)Jeremy Fitzhardinge
From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Older x86-32 processors do not support global mappings (PGD), so must only use it if the processor supports it. The _PAGE_KERNEL* flags always have _PAGE_KERNEL set, since logically we always want it set. This is OK even on processors which do not support PGD, since all _PAGE flags are masked with __supported_pte_mask before being turned into a real in-pagetable pte. On 32-bit systems, __supported_pte_mask is initialized to not contain _PAGE_GLOBAL, and it is then added if the CPU is found to support it. The x86-32 code used to use __PAGE_KERNEL/__PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC for this purpose, but they're now redundant and can be removed.

2008-07-08x86: find offset for crashkernel reservation automaticallyBernhard Walle
This patch removes the need of the crashkernel=...@offset parameter to define a fixed offset for crashkernel reservation. That feature can be used together with a relocatable kernel where the kexec-tools relocate the kernel and get the actual offset from /proc/iomem. The use case is a kernel where the .text+.data+.bss is after 16M physical memory (debug kernel with lockdep on x86_64 can cause that) which caused a major pain in autoconfiguration in our distribution. Also, that patch unifies crashdump architectures a bit since IA64 has that semantics from the very beginning of the kdump port.

OK, I've worked this out. Short version is that's it's a false alarm, and there was no real failure here. Long version: * I changed the code to create the physical mapping pagetables to reuse any existing mapping rather than replace it. Specifically, reusing an pud pointed to by the pgd caused this symptom to appear. * The specific PUD being reused is the one created statically in head_64.S, which creates an initial 1GB mapping. * That mapping doesn't have _PAGE_GLOBAL set on it, due to the inconsistency between __PAGE_* and PAGE_*. * The CPA test attempts to clear _PAGE_GLOBAL, and then checks to see that the resulting range is 1) shattered into 4k pages, and 2) has no _PAGE_GLOBAL. * However, since it didn't have _PAGE_GLOBAL on that range to start with, change_page_attr_clear() had nothing to do, and didn't bother shattering the range, * resulting in the reported messages The simple fix is to set _PAGE_GLOBAL in level2_ident_pgt. An additional fix to make CPA testing more robust by using some other pagetable bit (one of the unused available-to-software ones). This would solve spurious CPA test warnings under Xen which uses _PAGE_GLOBAL for its own purposes (ie, not under guest control). Also, we should revisit the use of _PAGE_GLOBAL in asm-x86/pgtable.h, and use it consistently, and drop MAKE_GLOBAL. The first time I proposed it it caused breakages in the very early CPA code; with luck that's all fixed now.

2008-07-08x86: don't reallocate pgt for node0Yinghai Lu
kva ram already mapped right after away, so don't need to get that for low ram. avoid wasting one copy of pgdat. also add node id in early_res name in case we get it from find_e820_area. Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-07-08x86: move reserve_setup_data to setup.cYinghai Lu
Ying Huang would like setup_data to be reserved, but not included in the no save range. Here we try to modify the e820 table to reserve that range early. also add that in early_res in case bootloader messes up with the ramdisk. other solution would be 1. add early_res_to_highmem... 2. early_res_to_e820... but they could reserve another type memory wrongly, if early_res has some resource reserved early, and not needed later, but it is not removed from early_res in time. Like the RAMDISK (already handled). Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com> Cc: andi@firstfloor.org Tested-by: Huang, Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
