2009-08-18genirq: Wake up irq thread after action has been installedThomas Gleixner
The wake_up_process() of the new irq thread in __setup_irq() is too early as the irqaction is not yet fully initialized especially action->irq is not yet set. The interrupt thread might dereference the wrong irq descriptor. Move the wakeup after the action is installed and action->irq has been set.

PARISC does not build: /home/mingo/tip/kernel/perf_counter.c: In function 'perf_counter_index': /home/mingo/tip/kernel/perf_counter.c:2016: error: 'PERF_COUNTER_INDEX_OFFSET' undeclared (first use in this function) /home/mingo/tip/kernel/perf_counter.c:2016: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once /home/mingo/tip/kernel/perf_counter.c:2016: error: for each function it appears in.) As PERF_COUNTER_INDEX_OFFSET is not defined. Now, we could define it in the architecture - but lets also provide a core default of 0 (which happens to be what all but one architecture uses at the moment). Architectures that need a different index offset should set this value in their asm/perf_counter.h files.

2009-08-17perf_counter: Check task on counter read IPIPaul Mackerras
In general, code in perf_counter.c that is called through an IPI checks, for per-task counters, that the counter's task is still the current task. This is to handle the race condition where the cpu switches from the task we want to another task in the interval between sending the IPI and the IPI arriving and being handled on the target CPU. For some reason, __perf_counter_read is missing this check, yet there is no reason why the race condition can't occur. This adds a check that the current task is the one we want. If it isn't, we just return. In that case the counter->count value should be up to date, since it will have been updated when the counter was scheduled out, which must have happened since the IPI was sent. I don't have an example of an actual failure due to this race, but it seems obvious that it could occur and we need to guard against it.

2009-08-17genirq: Support nested threaded irq handlingThomas Gleixner
Interrupt chips which are behind a slow bus (i2c, spi ...) and demultiplex other interrupt sources need to run their interrupt handler in a thread. The demultiplexed interrupt handlers need to run in thread context as well and need to finish before the demux handler thread can reenable the interrupt line. So the easiest way is to run the sub device handlers in the context of the demultiplexing handler thread. To avoid that a separate thread is created for the subdevices the function set_nested_irq_thread() is provided which sets the IRQ_NESTED_THREAD flag in the interrupt descriptor. A driver which calls request_threaded_irq() must not be aware of the fact that the threaded handler is called in the context of the demultiplexing handler thread. The setup code checks the IRQ_NESTED_THREAD flag which was set from the irq chip setup code and does not setup a separate thread for the interrupt. The primary function which is provided by the device driver is replaced by an internal dummy function which warns when it is called. For the demultiplexing handler a helper function handle_nested_irq() is provided which calls the demux interrupt thread function in the context of the caller and does the proper interrupt accounting and takes the interrupt disabled status of the demultiplexed subdevice into account.

2009-08-17genirq: Add buslock supportThomas Gleixner
Some interrupt chips are connected to a "slow" bus (i2c, spi ...). The bus access needs to sleep and therefor cannot be called in atomic contexts. Some of the generic interrupt management functions like disable_irq(), enable_irq() ... call interrupt chip functions with the irq_desc->lock held and interrupts disabled. This does not work for such devices. Provide a separate synchronization mechanism for such interrupt chips. The irq_chip structure is extended by two optional functions (bus_lock and bus_sync_and_unlock). The idea is to serialize the bus access for those operations in the core code so that drivers which are behind that bus operated interrupt controller do not have to worry about it and just can use the normal interfaces. To achieve this we add two function pointers to the irq_chip: bus_lock and bus_sync_unlock. bus_lock() is called to serialize access to the interrupt controller bus. Now the core code can issue chip->mask/unmask ... commands without changing the fast path code at all. The chip implementation merily stores that information in a chip private data structure and returns. No bus interaction as these functions are called from atomic context. After that bus_sync_unlock() is called outside the atomic context. Now the chip implementation issues the bus commands, waits for completion and unlocks the interrupt controller bus. The irq_chip implementation as pseudo code: struct irq_chip_data { struct mutex mutex; unsigned int irq_offset; unsigned long mask; unsigned long mask_status; } static void bus_lock(unsigned int irq) { struct irq_chip_data *data = get_irq_desc_chip_data(irq); mutex_lock(&data->mutex); } static void mask(unsigned int irq) { struct irq_chip_data *data = get_irq_desc_chip_data(irq); irq -= data->irq_offset; data->mask |= (1 << irq); } static void unmask(unsigned int irq) { struct irq_chip_data *data = get_irq_desc_chip_data(irq); irq -= data->irq_offset; data->mask &= ~(1 << irq); } static void bus_sync_unlock(unsigned int irq) { struct irq_chip_data *data = get_irq_desc_chip_data(irq); if (data->mask != data->mask_status) { do_bus_magic_to_set_mask(data->mask); data->mask_status = data->mask; } mutex_unlock(&data->mutex); } The device drivers can use request_threaded_irq, free_irq, disable_irq and enable_irq as usual with the only restriction that the calls need to come from non atomic context.

2009-08-17genirq: Add oneshot supportThomas Gleixner
For threaded interrupt handlers we expect the hard interrupt handler part to mask the interrupt on the originating device. The interrupt line itself is reenabled after the hard interrupt handler has executed. This requires access to the originating device from hard interrupt context which is not always possible. There are devices which can only be accessed via a bus (i2c, spi, ...). The bus access requires thread context. For such devices we need to keep the interrupt line masked until the threaded handler has executed. Add a new flag IRQF_ONESHOT which allows drivers to request that the interrupt is not unmasked after the hard interrupt context handler has been executed and the thread has been woken. The interrupt line is unmasked after the thread handler function has been executed. Note that for now IRQF_ONESHOT cannot be used with IRQF_SHARED to avoid complex accounting mechanisms. For oneshot interrupts the primary handler simply returns IRQ_WAKE_THREAD and does nothing else. A generic implementation irq_default_primary_handler() is provided to avoid useless copies all over the place. It is automatically installed when request_threaded_irq() is called with handler=NULL and thread_fn!=NULL.

2009-08-17Security/SELinux: seperate lsm specific mmap_min_addrEric Paris
Currently SELinux enforcement of controls on the ability to map low memory is determined by the mmap_min_addr tunable. This patch causes SELinux to ignore the tunable and instead use a seperate Kconfig option specific to how much space the LSM should protect. The tunable will now only control the need for CAP_SYS_RAWIO and SELinux permissions will always protect the amount of low memory designated by CONFIG_LSM_MMAP_MIN_ADDR. This allows users who need to disable the mmap_min_addr controls (usual reason being they run WINE as a non-root user) to do so and still have SELinux controls preventing confined domains (like a web server) from being able to map some area of low memory.

2009-08-16futex: Detect mismatched requeue targetsDarren Hart
There is currently no check to ensure that userspace uses the same futex requeue target (uaddr2) in futex_requeue() that the waiter used in futex_wait_requeue_pi(). A mismatch here could very unexpected results as the waiter assumes it either wakes on uaddr1 or uaddr2. We could detect this on wakeup in the waiter, but the cleanup is more intense after the improper requeue has occured. This patch stores the waiter's expected requeue target in a new requeue_pi_key pointer in the futex_q which futex_requeue() checks prior to attempting to do a proxy lock acquistion or a requeue when requeue_pi=1. If they don't match, return -EINVAL from futex_requeue, aborting the requeue of any remaining waiters.

2009-08-15rcu: Make preemptable RCU scan all CPUs when summing RCU countersPaul E. McKenney
This patch eliminates the counter-moving during CPU-offline notifiers, eliminating potential confusion if counters are scanned during counter-movement process. This confusion could result in premature ending of an RCU grace period. For example, if there are two tasks in RCU read-side critical sections (so that the sum of the counters is two), and the counter for the CPU going offline is -2, then moving the count to another CPU can result in the sum momentarily appearing to be zero. Since there are no memory barriers in either case, many more such scenarios are possible. So just don't move the counts!!! Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2009-08-15clocksource: Call clocksource_change_rating() outside of watchdog_lockThomas Gleixner
The changes to the watchdog logic introduced a lock inversion between watchdog_lock and clocksource_mutex. Change the rating outside of watchdog_lock to avoid it. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2009-08-15timekeeping: Introduce read_boot_clockMartin Schwidefsky
Add the new function read_boot_clock to get the exact time the system has been started. For architectures without support for exact boot time a new weak function is added that returns 0. Use the exact boot time to initialize wall_to_monotonic, or xtime if the read_boot_clock returned 0.

2009-08-15timekeeping: Move NTP adjusted clock multiplier to struct timekeeperMartin Schwidefsky
The clocksource structure has two multipliers, the unmodified multiplier clock->mult_orig and the NTP corrected multiplier clock->mult. The NTP multiplier is misplaced in the struct clocksource, this is private information of the timekeeping code. Add the mult field to the struct timekeeper to contain the NTP corrected value, keep the unmodifed multiplier in clock->mult and remove clock->mult_orig.

2009-08-15timekeeping: Add xtime_shift and ntp_error_shift to struct timekeeperMartin Schwidefsky
The xtime_nsec value in the timekeeper structure is shifted by a few bits to improve precision. This happens to be the same value as the clock->shift. To improve readability add xtime_shift to the timekeeper and use it instead of the clock->shift. Likewise add ntp_error_shift and replace all (NTP_SCALE_SHIFT - clock->shift) expressions.

2009-08-15timekeeping: Introduce struct timekeeperMartin Schwidefsky
Add struct timekeeper to keep the internal values timekeeping.c needs in regard to the currently selected clock source. This moves the timekeeping intervals, xtime_nsec and the ntp error value from struct clocksource to struct timekeeper. The raw_time is removed from the clocksource as well. It gets treated like xtime as a global variable. Eventually xtime raw_time should be moved to struct timekeeper.

2009-08-15clocksource: Cleanup clocksource selectionMartin Schwidefsky
If a non high-resolution clocksource is first set as override clock and then registered it becomes active even if the system is in one-shot mode. Move the override check from sysfs_override_clocksource to the clocksource selection. That fixes the bug and simplifies the code. The check in clocksource_register for double registration of the same clocksource is removed without replacement. To find the initial clocksource a new weak function in jiffies.c is defined that returns the jiffies clocksource. The architecture code can then override the weak function with a more suitable clocksource, e.g. the TOD clock on s390.

2009-08-15timekeeping: Move reset of cycle_last for tsc clocksource to tscMartin Schwidefsky
change_clocksource resets the cycle_last value to zero then sets it to a value read from the clocksource. The reset to zero is required only for the TSC clocksource to make the read_tsc function work after a resume. The reason is that the TSC read function uses cycle_last to detect backwards going TSCs. In the resume case cycle_last contains the TSC value from the last update before the suspend. On resume the TSC starts counting from 0 again and would trip over the cycle_last comparison. This is subtle and surprising. Move the reset to a resume function in the tsc code.

2009-08-15timekeeping: Remove clocksource inline functionsMartin Schwidefsky
The three inline functions clocksource_read, clocksource_enable and clocksource_disable are simple wrappers of an indirect call plus the copy from and to the mult_orig value. The functions are exclusively used by the timekeeping code which has intimate knowledge of the clocksource anyway. Therefore remove the inline functions. No functional change.
