* [PATCH] rcu: Fix sign bug making rcu_random always return the same sequenceJosh Triplett2006-10-041-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | rcu_random uses a counter rrs_count to occasionally mix data from get_random_bytes into the state of its pseudorandom generator. However, the rrs_counter gets declared as an unsigned long, and rcu_random checks for --rrs_count < 0, so this code will never mix any real random data into the state, and will thus always return the same sequence of random numbers. Also, change the return value of rcu_random from long to unsigned long, to avoid potential issues caused by the use of the % operator, which can return negative values for negative left operands.

* [PATCH] cpufreq: make the transition_notifier chain use SRCUAlan Stern2006-10-041-7/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as762) changes the cpufreq_transition_notifier_list from a blocking_notifier_head to an srcu_notifier_head. This will prevent errors caused attempting to call down_read() to access the notifier chain at a time when interrupts must remain disabled, during system suspend. It's not clear to me whether this is really necessary; perhaps the chain could be made into an atomic_notifier. However a couple of the callout routines do use blocking operations, so this approach seems safer. The head of the notifier chain needs to be initialized before use; this is done by an __init routine at core_initcall time. If this turns out not to be a good choice, it can easily be changed.

* [PATCH] SRCU: report out-of-memory errorsAlan Stern2006-10-043-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the init_srcu_struct() routine has no way to report out-of-memory errors. This patch (as761) makes it return -ENOMEM when the per-cpu data allocation fails. The patch also makes srcu_init_notifier_head() report a BUG if a notifier head can't be initialized. Perhaps it should return -ENOMEM instead, but in the most likely cases where this might occur I don't think any recovery is possible. Notifier chains generally are not created dynamically.

* [PATCH] Add SRCU-based notifier chainsAlan Stern2006-10-043-7/+166
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as751) adds a new type of notifier chain, based on the SRCU (Sleepable Read-Copy Update) primitives recently added to the kernel. An SRCU notifier chain is much like a blocking notifier chain, in that it must be called in process context and its callout routines are allowed to sleep. The difference is that the chain's links are protected by the SRCU mechanism rather than by an rw-semaphore, so calling the chain has extremely low overhead: no memory barriers and no cache-line bouncing. On the other hand, unregistering from the chain is expensive and the chain head requires special runtime initialization (plus cleanup if it is to be deallocated). SRCU notifiers are appropriate for notifiers that will be called very frequently and for which unregistration occurs very seldom. The proposed "task notifier" scheme qualifies, as may some of the network notifiers. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Acked-by: Paul E.

* [PATCH] srcu-3: RCU variant permitting read-side blockingPaul E. McKenney2006-10-046-2/+350
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Updated patch adding a variant of RCU that permits sleeping in read-side critical sections. SRCU is as follows: o Each use of SRCU creates its own srcu_struct, and each srcu_struct has its own set of grace periods. This is critical, as it prevents one subsystem with a blocking reader from holding up SRCU grace periods for other subsystems. o The SRCU primitives (srcu_read_lock(), srcu_read_unlock(), and synchronize_srcu()) all take a pointer to a srcu_struct. o The SRCU primitives must be called from process context. o srcu_read_lock() returns an int that must be passed to the matching srcu_read_unlock(). Realtime RCU avoids the need for this by storing the state in the task struct, but SRCU needs to allow a given code path to pass through multiple SRCU domains -- storing state in the task struct would therefore require either arbitrary space in the task struct or arbitrary limits on SRCU nesting. So I kicked the state-storage problem up to the caller. Of course, it is not permitted to call synchronize_srcu() while in an SRCU read-side critical section. o There is no call_srcu(). It would not be hard to implement one, but it seems like too easy a way to OOM the system. (Hey, we have enough trouble with call_rcu(), which does -not- permit readers to sleep!!!)

* [PATCH] msi: refactor and move the msi irq_chip into the arch codeEric W. Biederman2006-10-0413-395/+335
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It turns out msi_ops was simply not enough to abstract the architecture specific details of msi. So I have moved the resposibility of constructing the struct irq_chip to the architectures, and have two architecture specific functions arch_setup_msi_irq, and arch_teardown_msi_irq. For simple architectures those functions can do all of the work. For architectures with platform dependencies they can call into the appropriate platform code. With this msi.c is finally free of assuming you have an apic, and this actually takes less code. The helpers for the architecture specific code are declared in the linux/msi.h to keep them separate from the msi functions used by drivers in linux/pci.h Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [PATCH] msi: only use a single irq_chip for msi interruptsEric W. Biederman2006-10-041-91/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The logic works like this. Since we no longer track the state logic by hand in msi.c startup and shutdown are no longer needed. By updating msi_set_mask_bit to work on msi devices that do not implement a mask bit we can always call the mask/unmask functions. What we really have are mask and unmask so we use them to implement the .mask and .unmask functions instead of .enable and .disable. By switching to the handle_edge_irq handler we only need an ack function that moves the irq if necessary. Which removes the old end and ack functions and their peculiar logic of sometimes disabling an irq. This removes the reliance on pre genirq irq handling methods. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [PATCH] msi: simplify msi sanity checks by adding with generic irq codeEric W. Biederman2006-10-044-36/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently msi.c is doing sanity checks that make certain before an irq is destroyed it has no more users. By adding irq_has_action I can perform the test is a generic way, instead of relying on a msi specific data structure. By performing the core check in dynamic_irq_cleanup I ensure every user of dynamic irqs has a test present and we don't free resources that are in use. In msi.c this allows me to kill the attrib.state member of msi_desc and all of the assciated code to maintain it. To keep from freeing data structures when irq cleanup code is called to soon changing dyanamic_irq_cleanup is insufficient because there are msi specific data structures that are also not safe to free.

* [PATCH] Initial generic hypertransport interrupt supportEric W. Biederman2006-10-048-0/+486
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements two functions ht_create_irq and ht_destroy_irq for use by drivers. Several other functions are implemented as helpers for arch specific irq_chip handlers. The driver for the card I tested this on isn't yet ready to be merged. However this code is and hypertransport irqs are in use in a few other places in the kernel. Not that any of this will get merged before 2.6.19 Because the ipath-ht400 is slightly out of spec this code will need to be generalized to work there. I think all of the powerpc uses are for a plain interrupt controller in a chipset so support for native hypertransport devices is a little less interesting. However I think this is a half way decent model on how to separate arch specific and generic helper code, and I think this is a functional model of how to get the architecture dependencies out of the msi code.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The msi currently allocates irqs backwards. First it allocates a platform dependent routing value for an interrupt the ``vector'' and then it figures out from the vector which irq you are on. For ia64 this is fine. For x86 and x86_64 this is complete nonsense and makes an enourmous mess of the irq handling code and prevents some pretty significant cleanups in the code for handling large numbers of irqs. This patch refactors msi.c to work in terms of irqs and create_irq/destroy_irq for dynamically managing irqs. Hopefully this is finally a version of msi.c that is useful on more than just x86 derivatives. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [PATCH] genirq: irq: add a dynamic irq creation APIEric W. Biederman2006-10-042-1/+64
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the msi support comes a new concept in irq handling, irqs that are created dynamically at run time. Currently the msi code allocates irqs backwards. First it allocates a platform dependent routing value for an interrupt the ``vector'' and then it figures out from the vector which irq you are on. This msi backwards allocator suffers from two basic problems. The allocator suffers because it is trying to do something that is architecture specific in a generic way making it brittle, inflexible, and tied to tightly to the architecture implementation. The alloctor also suffers from it's very backwards nature as it has tied things together that should have no dependencies. To solve the basic dynamic irq allocation problem two new architecture specific functions are added: create_irq and destroy_irq. create_irq takes no input and returns an unused irq number, that won't be reused until it is returned to the free poll with destroy_irq. The irq then can be used for any purpose although the only initial consumer is the msi code. destroy_irq takes an irq number allocated with create_irq and returns it to the free pool. Making this functionality per architecture increases the simplicity of the irq allocation code and increases it's flexibility. dynamic_irq_init() and dynamic_irq_cleanup() are added to automate the irq_desc initializtion that should happen for dynamic irqs.

* [PATCH] genirq: msi: simplify the msi irq limit policyEric W. Biederman2006-10-044-95/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we attempt to predict how many irqs we will be able to allocate with msi using pci_vector_resources and some complicated accounting, and then we only allow each device as many irqs as we think are available on average. Only the s2io driver even takes advantage of this feature all other drivers have a fixed number of irqs they need and bail if they can't get them. pci_vector_resources is inaccurate if anyone ever frees an irq. The whole implmentation is racy. The current irq limit policy does not appear to make sense with current drivers. So I have simplified things. We can revisit this we we need a more sophisticated policy. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current msi_ops are short sighted in a number of ways, this patch attempts to fix the glaring deficiences. - Report in msi_ops if a 64bit address is needed in the msi message, so we can fail 32bit only msi structures. - Send and receive a full struct msi_msg in both setup and target. This is a little cleaner and allows for architectures that need to modify the data to retarget the msi interrupt to a different cpu. - In target pass in the full cpu mask instead of just the first cpu in case we can make use of the full cpu mask. - Operate in terms of irqs and not vectors, currently there is still a 1-1 relationship but on architectures other than ia64 I expect this will change.

* [PATCH] genirq: irq: add moved_masked_irqEric W. Biederman2006-10-042-7/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently move_native_irq disables and renables the irq we are migrating to ensure we don't take that irq when we are actually doing the migration operation. Disabling the irq needs to happen but sometimes doing the work is move_native_irq is too late. On x86 with ioapics the irq move sequences needs to be: edge_triggered: mask irq. move irq. unmask irq. ack irq. level_triggered: mask irq. ack irq. move irq. unmask irq. We can easily perform the edge triggered sequence, with the current defintion of move_native_irq. However the level triggered case does not map well. For that I have added move_masked_irq, to allow me to disable the irqs around both the ack and the move. Q: Why have we not seen this problem earlier? A: The only symptom I have been able to reproduce is that if we change the vector before acknowleding an irq the wrong irq is acknowledged. Since we currently are not reprogramming the irq vector during migration no problems show up. We have to mask the irq before we acknowledge the irq or else we could hit a window where an irq is asserted just before we acknowledge it. Edge triggered irqs do not have this problem because acknowledgements do not propogate in the same way. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [PATCH] genirq: irq: convert the move_irq flag from a 32bit word to a single bitEric W. Biederman2006-10-042-5/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The primary aim of this patchset is to remove maintenances problems caused by the irq infrastructure. The two big issues I address are an artificially small cap on the number of irqs, and that MSI assumes vector == irq. My primary focus is on x86_64 but I have touched other architectures where necessary to keep them from breaking. - To increase the number of irqs I modify the code to look at the (cpu, vector) pair instead of just looking at the vector. With a large number of irqs available systems with a large irq count no longer need to compress their irq numbers to fit. Removing a lot of brittle special cases. For acpi guys the result is that irq == gsi. - Addressing the fact that MSI assumes irq == vector takes a few more patches. But suffice it to say when I am done none of the generic irq code even knows what a vector is. In quick testing on a large Unisys x86_64 machine we stumbled over at least one driver that assumed that NR_IRQS could always fit into an 8 bit number. This driver is clearly buggy today. But this has become a class of bugs that it is now much easier to hit. This patch: This is a minor space optimization. In practice I don't think this has any affect because of our alignment constraints and the other fields but there is not point in chewing up an uncessary word and since we already read the flag field this should improve the cache hit ratio of the irq handler.

* [PATCH] knfsd: close a race-opportunity in d_splice_aliasNeilBrown2006-10-041-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a possible race in d_splice_alias. Though __d_find_alias(inode, 1) will only return a dentry with DCACHE_DISCONNECTED set, it is possible for it to get cleared before the BUG_ON, and it is is not possible to lock against that. There are a couple of problems here. Firstly, the code doesn't match the comment. The comment describes a 'disconnected' dentry as being IS_ROOT as well as DCACHE_DISCONNECTED, however there is not testing of IS_ROOT anythere. A dentry is marked DCACHE_DISCONNECTED when allocated with d_alloc_anon, and remains DCACHE_DISCONNECTED while a path is built up towards the root. So a dentry can have a valid name and a valid parent and even grandparent, but will still be DCACHE_DISCONNECTED until a path to the root is created. Once the path to the root is complete, everything in the path gets DCACHE_DISCONNECTED cleared. So the fact that DCACHE_DISCONNECTED isn't enough to say that a dentry is free to be spliced in with a given name. This can only be allowed if the dentry does not yet have a name, so the IS_ROOT test is needed too. However even adding that test to __d_find_alias isn't enough. As d_splice_alias drops dcache_lock before calling d_move to perform the splice, it could race with another thread calling d_splice_alias to splice the inode in with a different name in a different part of the tree (in the case where a file has hard links). So that splicing code is only really safe for directories (as we know that directories only have one link). For directories, the caller of d_splice_alias will be holding i_mutex on the (unique) parent so there is no room for a race. A consequence of this is that a non-directory will never benefit from being spliced into a pre-exisiting dentry, but that isn't a problem. It is perfectly OK for a non-directory to have multiple dentries, some anonymous, some not. And the comment for d_splice_alias says that it only happens for directories anyway.
