2008-12-08x86, MSI: pass irq_cfg and irq_descYinghai Lu

2008-12-08x86: MSI start irq numbering from nr_irqs_gsiYinghai Lu
Impact: sanitize MSI irq number ordering from top-down to bottom-up Increase new MSI IRQs starting from nr_irqs_gsi (which is somewhere below 256), instead of decreasing from NR_IRQS. (The latter method can result in confusingly high IRQ numbers - if NR_CPUS is set to a high value and NR_IRQS scales up to a high value.)

2008-12-08sparse irq_desc[] array: core kernel and x86 changesYinghai Lu
Impact: new feature Problem on distro kernels: irq_desc[NR_IRQS] takes megabytes of RAM with NR_CPUS set to large values. The goal is to be able to scale up to much larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case. To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of irq_desc pointers. When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc, this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls request_irq()). This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now uses desc->chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.

2008-12-08x86: change static allocation of trampoline areaRafael J. Wysocki
Impact: fix trampoline sizing bug, save space While debugging a suspend-to-RAM related issue it occured to me that if the trampoline code had grown past 4 KB, we would have been allocating too little memory for it, since the 4 KB size of the trampoline is hardcoded into arch/x86/kernel/e820.c . Change that by making the kernel compute the trampoline size and allocate as much memory as necessary. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-12-05[CPUFREQ] Disable sysfs ui for p4-clockmod.Matthew Garrett
p4-clockmod has a long history of abuse. It pretends to be a CPU frequency scaling driver, even though it doesn't actually change the CPU frequency, but instead just modulates the frequency with wait-states. The biggest misconception is that when running at the lower 'frequency' p4-clockmod is saving power. This isn't the case, as workloads running slower take longer to complete, preventing the CPU from entering deep C states. However p4-clockmod does have a purpose. It can prevent overheating. Having it hooked up to the cpufreq interfaces is the wrong way to achieve cooling however. It should instead be hooked up to ACPI. This diff introduces a means for a cpufreq driver to register with the cpufreq core, but not present a sysfs interface.

2008-12-05[CPUFREQ] p4-clockmod: reduce noiseDominik Brodowski

2008-12-05[CPUFREQ] clean up speedstep-centrino and reduce cpumask_t usageRusty Russell
Impact: cleanup 1) The #ifdef CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU seems unnecessary these days. 2) The loop can simply skip over offline cpus, rather than creating a tmp mask. 3) set_mask is set to either a single cpu or all online cpus in a policy. Since it's just used for set_cpus_allowed(), any offline cpus in a policy don't matter, so we can just use cpumask_of_cpu() or the policy->cpus.

2008-12-03AMD IOMMU: fix possible race while accessing iommu->need_syncJoerg Roedel
The access to the iommu->need_sync member needs to be protected by the iommu->lock. Otherwise this is a possible race condition. Fix it with this patch. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com>
2008-12-03AMD IOMMU: set device table entry for aliased devicesJoerg Roedel
In some rare cases a request can arrive an IOMMU with its originial requestor id even it is aliased. Handle this by setting the device table entry to the same protection domain for the original and the aliased requestor id. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com>
2008-12-03x86: fix broken flushing in GART nofullflush pathJoerg Roedel
Impact: remove stale IOTLB entries In the non-default nofullflush case the GART is only flushed when next_bit wraps around. But it can happen that an unmap operation unmaps memory which is behind the current next_bit location. If these addresses are reused it may result in stale GART IO/TLB entries.

2008-12-03ftrace: function graph return for function entrySteven Rostedt
Impact: feature, let entry function decide to trace or not This patch lets the graph tracer entry function decide if the tracing should be done at the end as well.

2008-12-03ftrace: print real return in dumpstack for function graphSteven Rostedt
Impact: better dumpstack output I noticed in my crash dumps and even in the stack tracer that a lot of functions listed in the stack trace are simply return_to_handler which is ftrace graphs way to insert its own call into the return of a function. But we lose out where the actually function was called from. This patch adds in hooks to the dumpstack mechanism that detects this and finds the real function to print. Both are printed to let the user know that a hook is still in place. This does give a funny side effect in the stack tracer output: Depth Size Location (80 entries) ----- ---- -------- 0) 4144 48 save_stack_trace+0x2f/0x4d 1) 4096 128 ftrace_call+0x5/0x2b 2) 3968 16 mempool_alloc_slab+0x16/0x18 3) 3952 384 return_to_handler+0x0/0x73 4) 3568 -240 stack_trace_call+0x11d/0x209 5) 3808 144 return_to_handler+0x0/0x73 6) 3664 -128 mempool_alloc+0x4d/0xfe 7) 3792 128 return_to_handler+0x0/0x73 8) 3664 -32 scsi_sg_alloc+0x48/0x4a [scsi_mod] As you can see, the real functions are now negative. This is due to them not being found inside the stack. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-12-03ftrace: add ftrace_graph_stop()Steven Rostedt
Impact: new ftrace_graph_stop function While developing more features of function graph, I hit a bug that caused the WARN_ON to trigger in the prepare_ftrace_return function. Well, it was hard for me to find out that was happening because the bug would not print, it would just cause a hard lockup or reboot. The reason is that it is not safe to call printk from this function. Looking further, I also found that it calls unregister_ftrace_graph, which grabs a mutex and calls kstop machine. This would definitely lock the box up if it were to trigger. This patch adds a fast and safe ftrace_graph_stop() which will stop the function tracer. Then it is safe to call the WARN ON.

2008-12-02tracing/function-graph-tracer: support for x86-64Frederic Weisbecker
Impact: extend and enable the function graph tracer to 64-bit x86 This patch implements the support for function graph tracer under x86-64. Both static and dynamic tracing are supported. This causes some small CPP conditional asm on arch/x86/kernel/ftrace.c I wanted to use probe_kernel_read/write to make the return address saving/patching code more generic but it causes tracing recursion. That would be perhaps useful to implement a notrace version of these function for other archs ports. Note that arch/x86/process_64.c is not traced, as in X86-32. I first thought __switch_to() was responsible of crashes during tracing because I believed current task were changed inside but that's actually not the case (actually yes, but not the "current" pointer). So I will have to investigate to find the functions that harm here, to enable tracing of the other functions inside (but there is no issue at this time, while process_64.c stays out of -pg flags). A little possible race condition is fixed inside this patch too. When the tracer allocate a return stack dynamically, the current depth is not initialized before but after. An interrupt could occur at this time and, after seeing that the return stack is allocated, the tracer could try to trace it with a random uninitialized depth. It's a prevention, even if I hadn't problems with it.

2008-11-28x86: ret_from_fork - get rid of jump backIngo Molnar
Impact: remove dead code If we take a closer look at the rff_trace/rff_action ret_from_fork code, we have to realize that it does all the wrong things: for example it checks the TIF flag - while later on jumping back to the ret-from-syscall path - duplicating the check needlessly. But checking for _TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE is completely unnecessary here because we clear that flag for every freshly forked task. So the whole "tracing" code here, for which there is a out of line jump optimization that makes it even harder to read, is in reality completely dead code ...
