* ihex: add support for CS:IP/EIP recordsMark Brown2010-10-261-3/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ihex firmwares can include a jump address for starting execution. Add a -j option which will cause this to be written into the generated file as a record with address zero and data consisting of the address to jump to, allowing drivers to make use of this information. This format is chosen because it most closely follows the original ihex format, though it may make more sense to write a record with length zero and the address stored as the address. The records are not omitted by default since our ihex format does not include record type information and so including additional records may lead to confusion.

* uml: define CONFIG_NO_DMAFUJITA Tomonori2010-10-263-113/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I think that it's better to detect DMA misuse at build time rather than calling BUG_ON. Architectures that can't do DMA need to define CONFIG_NO_DMA. Thanks to Sam Ravnborg for explaining how CONFIG_NO_DMA and CONFIG_HAS_DMA work: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=128359913825550&w=2 HAS_DMA is defined like this: config HAS_DMA boolean depends on !NO_DMA default y So to set HAS_DMA to true an arch should do: 1) Do not define NO_DMA 2) Define NO_DMA abd set it to 'n' Must archs - including um - used principle 1). In the um case we want to say that we do NOT have any DMA. This can be done in two ways. a) define NO_DMA and set it to 'y' b) redefine HAS_DMA and set it to 'n'. The patch you provided used principle b) where other archs use principle a). So I suggest you should use principle a) for um too.

* alpha: use single HAE window on T2 core logic (gamma, sable)Ivan Kokshaysky2010-10-264-40/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | T2 are the only alpha SMP systems that do HAE switching at runtime, which is fundamentally racy on SMP. This patch limits MMIO space on T2 to HAE0 only, like we did on MCPCIA (rawhide) long ago. This leaves us with only 112 Mb of PCI MMIO (128 Mb HAE aperture minus 16 Mb reserved for EISA), but since linux PCI allocations are reasonably tight, it should be enough for sane hardware configurations. Also, fix a typo in MCPCIA_FROB_MMIO macro which shouldn't call set_hae() if MCPCIA_ONE_HAE_WINDOW is defined. It's more for correctness, as set_hae() is a no-op anyway in that case.

If another interrupt arrives before the timer has been correctly programmed (due to some other device on the same interrupt line, or CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ), this results in an extra unwanted interrupt event because the status bit is likely to be set from comparator matches that happened before the device was opened. Therefore, we have to ensure that the interrupt status bit is and stays cleared until we actually program the timer.

* hpet: unmap unused I/O spaceJiri Slaby2010-10-261-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the initialization code in hpet finds a memory resource and does not find an IRQ, it does not unmap the memory resource previously mapped. There are buggy BIOSes which report resources exactly like this and what is worse the memory region bases point to normal RAM. This normally would not matter since the space is not touched. But when PAT is turned on, ioremap causes the page to be uncached and sets this bit in page->flags. Then when the page is about to be used by the allocator, it is reported as: BUG: Bad page state in process md5sum pfn:3ed00 page:ffffea0000dbd800 count:0 mapcount:0 mapping:(null) index:0x0 page flags: 0x20000001000000(uncached) Pid: 7956, comm: md5sum Not tainted 2.6.34-12-desktop #1 Call Trace: [<ffffffff810df851>] bad_page+0xb1/0x100 [<ffffffff810dfa45>] prep_new_page+0x1a5/0x1c0 [<ffffffff810dfe01>] get_page_from_freelist+0x3a1/0x640 [<ffffffff810e01af>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x10f/0x6b0 ... In this particular case: 1) HPET returns 3ed00000 as memory region base, but it is not in reserved ranges reported by the BIOS (excerpt): BIOS-e820: 0000000000100000 - 00000000af6cf000 (usable) BIOS-e820: 00000000af6cf000 - 00000000afdcf000 (reserved) 2) there is no IRQ resource reported by HPET method. On the other hand, the Intel HPET specs (1.0a) says (3.2.5.1): _CRS ( // Report 1K of memory consumed by this Timer Block memory range consumed // Optional: only used if BIOS allocates Interrupts [1] IRQs consumed ) [1] For case where Timer Block is configured to consume IRQ0/IRQ8 AND Legacy 8254/Legacy RTC hardware still exists, the device objects associated with 8254 & RTC devices should not report IRQ0/IRQ8 as "consumed resources". So in theory we should check whether if it is the case and use those interrupts instead. Anyway the address reported by the BIOS here is bogus, so non-presence of IRQ doesn't mean the "optional" part in point 2). Since I got no reply previously, fix this by simply unmapping the space when IRQ is not found and memory region was mapped previously. It would be probably more safe to walk the resources again and unmap appropriately depending on type. But as we now use only ioremap for both 2 memory resource types, it is not necessarily needed right now.

For fixing this, there are 2 choices. 1. add zone->lock. 2. remove BUG_ON(). is_mem_section_removable() is used for some "advice" and doesn't need to be 100% accurate.

* mm: retry page fault when blocking on disk transferMichel Lespinasse2010-10-265-15/+64
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change reduces mmap_sem hold times that are caused by waiting for disk transfers when accessing file mapped VMAs. It introduces the VM_FAULT_ALLOW_RETRY flag, which indicates that the call site wants mmap_sem to be released if blocking on a pending disk transfer. In that case, filemap_fault() returns the VM_FAULT_RETRY status bit and do_page_fault() will then re-acquire mmap_sem and retry the page fault. It is expected that the retry will hit the same page which will now be cached, and thus it will complete with a low mmap_sem hold time. Tests: - microbenchmark: thread A mmaps a large file and does random read accesses to the mmaped area - achieves about 55 iterations/s. Thread B does mmap/munmap in a loop at a separate location - achieves 55 iterations/s before, 15000 iterations/s after. - We are seeing related effects in some applications in house, which show significant performance regressions when running without this change.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reorder structure anon_vma to remove alignment padding on 64 builds when (CONFIG_KSM || CONFIG_MIGRATION). This will shrink the size of the anon_vma structure from 40 to 32 bytes & allow more objects per slab in its kmem_cache. Under slub the objects in the anon_vma kmem_cache will then be 40 bytes with 102 objects per slab. (On v2.6.36 without this patch,the size is 48 bytes and 85 objects/slab.)

In most instances, the first pool_alloc_page call would succeed and the sleeping functions would never be called. This allowed the buggy drivers to slip through the cracks.
