2008-09-05x86: additional defconfig updatesH. Peter Anvin
Additional updates to the x86 defconfigs. The goals are, as before: - Make them usable to testers, more so than distributors or end users, both of which are likely to have their own config already. - Keep 32 and 64 bits as similar as is practical. Changes: - Use a more generic CPU type (ppro and generic, respectively). - Bump number of CPUs to 64 (few if any NR_CPUS arrays left). - Enable PAT. - Enable OPTIMIZE_INLINE. - Enable microcode update support. - Build SMT scheduler support (in addition to MC).

2008-09-05sched: fix process time monotonicityBalbir Singh
Spencer reported a problem where utime and stime were going negative despite the fixes in commit b27f03d4bdc145a09fb7b0c0e004b29f1ee555fa. The suspected reason for the problem is that signal_struct maintains it's own utime and stime (of exited tasks), these are not updated using the new task_utime() routine, hence sig->utime can go backwards and cause the same problem to occur (sig->utime, adds tsk->utime and not task_utime()). This patch fixes the problem TODO: using max(task->prev_utime, derived utime) works for now, but a more generic solution is to implement cputime_max() and use the cputime_gt() function for comparison.

This reverts commit ae82cbfc8beaa69007aa09966d3983ac938c3577.

2008-09-05HPET: make minimum reprogramming delta usefulThomas Gleixner
The minimum reprogramming delta was hardcoded in HPET ticks, which is stupid as it does not work with faster running HPETs. The C1E idle patches made this prominent on AMD/RS690 chipsets, where the HPET runs with 25MHz. Set it to 5us which seems to be a reasonable value and fixes the problems on the bug reporters machines. We have a further sanity check now in the clock events, which increases the delta when it is not sufficient. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Tested-by: Luiz Fernando N.

2008-09-05clockevents: prevent endless loop lockupThomas Gleixner
The C1E/HPET bug reports on AMDX2/RS690 systems where tracked down to a too small value of the HPET minumum delta for programming an event. The clockevents code needs to enforce an interrupt event on the clock event device in some cases. The enforcement code was stupid and naive, as it just added the minimum delta to the current time and tried to reprogram the device. When the minimum delta is too small, then this loops forever. Add a sanity check. Allow reprogramming to fail 3 times, then print a warning and double the minimum delta value to make sure, that this does not happen again. Use the same function for both tick-oneshot and tick-broadcast code. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-09-05clockevents: prevent multiple init/shutdownThomas Gleixner
While chasing the C1E/HPET bugreports I went through the clock events code inch by inch and found that the broadcast device can be initialized and shutdown multiple times. Multiple shutdowns are not critical, but useless waste of time. Multiple initializations are simply broken. Another CPU might have the device in use already after the first initialization and the second init could just render it unusable again.

2008-09-05clockevents: enforce reprogram in oneshot setupThomas Gleixner
In tick_oneshot_setup we program the device to the given next_event, but we do not check the return value. We need to make sure that the device is programmed enforced so the interrupt handler engine starts working. Split out the reprogramming function from tick_program_event() and call it with the device, which was handed in to tick_setup_oneshot(). Set the force argument, so the devices is firing an interrupt.

2008-09-05clockevents: prevent endless loop in periodic broadcast handlerThomas Gleixner
The reprogramming of the periodic broadcast handler was broken, when the first programming returned -ETIME. The clockevents code stores the new expiry value in the clock events device next_event field only when the programming time has not been elapsed yet. The loop in question calculates the new expiry value from the next_event value and therefor never increases.

2008-09-05clockevents: prevent clockevent event_handler ending up handler_noopVenkatesh Pallipadi
There is a ordering related problem with clockevents code, due to which clockevents_register_device() called after tickless/highres switch will not work. The new clockevent ends up with clockevents_handle_noop as event handler, resulting in no timer activity. The problematic path seems to be * old device already has hrtimer_interrupt as the event_handler * new clockevent device registers with a higher rating * tick_check_new_device() is called * clockevents_exchange_device() gets called * old->event_handler is set to clockevents_handle_noop * tick_setup_device() is called for the new device * which sets new->event_handler using the old->event_handler which is noop. Change the ordering so that new device inherits the proper handler. This does not have any issue in normal case as most likely all the clockevent devices are setup before the highres switch. But, can potentially be affecting some corner case where HPET force detect happens after the highres switch. This was a problem with HPET in MSI mode code that we have been experimenting with.

The problem of finger tracking, i.e., when to switch focus from one finger to another on the trackpad, has been improved by utilizing more information from the bcm5974 chip output. This results in less pointer hopping when many fingers are on the trackpad. In addition, a finger counting method based on pressure information from all fingers is introduced. Together with a pressure hysteresis window, this yields a more stable counting of the number of fingers on the trackpad.

2008-09-05powerpc/spufs: Fix race for a free SPUJeremy Kerr
We currently have a race for a free SPE. With one thread doing a spu_yield(), and another doing a spu_activate(): thread 1 thread 2 spu_yield(oldctx) spu_activate(ctx) __spu_deactivate(oldctx) spu_unschedule(oldctx, spu) spu->alloc_state = SPU_FREE spu = spu_get_idle(ctx) - searches for a SPE in state SPU_FREE, gets the context just freed by thread 1 spu_schedule(ctx, spu) spu->alloc_state = SPU_USED spu_schedule(newctx, spu) - assumes spu is still free - tries to schedule context on already-used spu This change introduces a 'free_spu' flag to spu_unschedule, to indicate whether or not the function should free the spu after descheduling the context.

2008-09-04x86: quick TSC calibrationLinus Torvalds
Introduce a fast TSC-calibration method on sane hardware. It only uses 17920 PIT timer ticks to calibrate the TSC, plus 256 ticks on each side to make sure the TSC values were very close to the tick, so the whole calibration takes 15ms. Yet, despite only takign 15ms, we can actually give pretty stringent guarantees of accuracy: - the code requires that we hit each 256-counter block at least 50 times, so the TSC error is basically at *MOST* just a few PIT cycles off in any direction. In practice, it's going to be about one microseconds off (which is how long it takes to read the counter) - so over 17920 PIT cycles, we can pretty much guarantee that the calibration error is less than one half of a percent. My testing bears this out: on my machine, the quick-calibration reports 2934.085kHz, while the slow one reports 2933.415. Yes, the slower calibration is still more precise. For me, the slow calibration is stable to within about one hundreth of a percent, so it's (at a guess) roughly an order-and-a-half of magnitude more precise. The longer you wait, the more precise you can be. However, the nice thing about the fast TSC PIT synchronization is that it's pretty much _guaranteed_ to give that 0.5% precision, and fail gracefully (and very quickly) if it doesn't get it. And it really is fairly simple (even if there's a lot of _details_ there, and I didn't get all of those right ont he first try or even the second ;) The patch says "110 insertions", but 63 of those new lines are actually comments.

2008-09-04x86: TSC make the calibration loop smarterThomas Gleixner
The last changes made the calibration loop 250ms long which is far too much. Try to do that more clever. Experiments have shown that using a 10ms delay for the PIT based calibration gives us a good enough value. If we have a reference (HPET/PMTIMER) and the result of the PIT and the reference is close enough, then we can break out of the calibration loop on a match right away and use the reference value. Otherwise we just loop 3 times and decide then, which value to take. One caveat is that for virtualized environments the PIT calibration often does not work at all and I found out that 10us is a bit too short as well for the reference to give a sane result. The solution here is to make the last loop longer when the first two PIT calibrations failed. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
