* modpost: Update 64k section support for binutils 2.18.50Anders Kaseorg2011-05-192-29/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Binutils 2.18.50 made a backwards-incompatible change in the way it writes ELF objects with over 65280 sections, to improve conformance with the ELF specification and interoperability with other ELF tools. Specifically, it no longer adds 256 to section indices SHN_LORESERVE and higher to skip over the reserved range SHN_LORESERVE through SHN_HIRESERVE; those values are only considered special in the st_shndx field, and not in other places where section indices are stored.

* module: Use binary search in lookup_symbol()Alessio Igor Bogani2011-05-191-5/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The function is_exported() with its helper function lookup_symbol() are used to verify if a provided symbol is effectively exported by the kernel or by the modules. Now that both have their symbols sorted we can replace a linear search with a binary search which provide a considerably speed-up.

* lib: Add generic binary search function to the kernel.Tim Abbott2011-05-193-1/+64
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There a large number hand-coded binary searches in the kernel (run "git grep search | grep binary" to find many of them). Since in my experience, hand-coding binary searches can be error-prone, it seems worth cleaning this up by providing a generic binary search function. This generic binary search implementation comes from Ksplice. It has the same basic API as the C library bsearch() function. Ksplice uses it in half a dozen places with 4 different comparison functions, and I think our code is substantially cleaner because of this.

* module: Sort exported symbolsAlessio Igor Bogani2011-05-193-12/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch places every exported symbol in its own section (i.e. "___ksymtab+printk"). Thus the linker will use its SORT() directive to sort and finally merge all symbol in the right and final section (i.e. "__ksymtab"). The symbol prefixed archs use an underscore as prefix for symbols. To avoid collision we use a different character to create the temporary section names.

* module: undo module RONX protection correctly.Jan Glauber2011-05-193-12/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While debugging I stumbled over two problems in the code that protects module pages. First issue is that disabling the protection before freeing init or unload of a module is not symmetric with the enablement. For instance, if pages are set to RO the page range from module_core to module_core + core_ro_size is protected. If a module is unloaded the page range from module_core to module_core + core_size is set back to RW. So pages that were not set to RO are also changed to RW. This is not critical but IMHO it should be symmetric. Second issue is that while set_memory_rw & set_memory_ro are used for RO/RW changes only set_memory_nx is involved for NX/X. One would await that the inverse function is called when the NX protection should be removed, which is not the case here, unless I'm missing something.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On m68k natural alignment is 2-byte boundary but we are trying to align structures in __modver section on sizeof(void *) boundary. This causes trouble when we try to access elements in this section in array-like fashion when create "version" attributes for built-in modules. Moreover, as DaveM said, we can't reliably put structures into independent objects, put them into a special section, and then expect array access over them (via the section boundaries) after linking the objects together to just "work" due to variable alignment choices in different situations. The only solution that seems to work reliably is to make an array of plain pointers to the objects in question and put those pointers in the special section.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | configfs_readdir() will use the existing inode numbers of inodes in the dcache, but it makes them up for attribute files that aren't currently instantiated. There is a race where a closing attribute file can be tearing down at the same time as configfs_readdir() is trying to get its inode number. We want to get the inode number of open attribute files, because they should match while instantiated. We can't lock down the transition where dentry->d_inode is set to NULL, so we just check for NULL there. We can, however, ensure that an inode we find isn't iput() in configfs_d_iput() until after we've accessed it. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <jlbec@evilplan.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When configfs is faking mkdir() on its subsystem or default group objects, it starts by adding a negative dentry. It then tries to instantiate the group. If that should fail, it must clean up after itself. I was using d_delete() here, but configfs_attach_group() promises to return an empty dentry on error. d_delete() explodes with the entry dentry. Let's try d_drop() instead. The unhashing is what we want for our dentry. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <jlbec@evilplan.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have seen isolated cases (very few, I might add) of o2hb not detecting all live nodes on startup. One plausible reasoning for it is that other node had a hb io delay at the same time. The live threshold set at 2 (as low as it can be) could be increased to ameliorate the situation. But increasing the threshold directly affects mount time. Currently it takes around 5 secs to mount a volume in o2cb cluster with local heartbeat. Increasing the threshold will make mounts even slower. As the issue itself is rare, we have left things as they are for the local heartbeat mode. However we can improve the situation for global heartbeat mode as in that mode, we start the heartbeat much before the mount. This patch doubles the live threshold for the start of the first region in global heartbeat mode. Addresses internal Oracle bug#10635585.

This was a known potential slow down, but should be safe. Unfortunately this is causing big performance regressions for some, so we need to improve this logic. Looking into the details of the re-enter, the real issue is on requeue of requests. Requeue of requests upon seeing a BUSY condition from the device ends up re-running the queue, causing traces like this: scsi_request_fn() scsi_dispatch_cmd() scsi_queue_insert() __scsi_queue_insert() scsi_run_queue() scsi_request_fn() ... potentially causing the issue we want to avoid. So special case the requeue re-run of the queue, but improve it to offload the entire run of local queue and starved queue from a single workqueue callback. This is a lot better than potentially kicking off a workqueue run for each device seen. This also fixes the issue of the local device going into recursion, since the above mentioned commit never moved that queue run out of line. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

There is a more direct way to get to blkio_cgroup from task using task_subsys_state(). Use that. The real reason for the fix is that it also avoids a race in generic cgroup code. During remount/umount rebind_subsystems() is called and it can do following with and rcu protection. cgrp->subsys[i] = NULL; That means if somebody got hold of cgroup under rcu and then it tried to do cgroup->subsys[] to get to blkio_cgroup, it would get NULL which is wrong. I was running into this race condition with ltp running on a upstream derived kernel and that lead to crash. So ideally we should also fix cgroup generic code to wait for rcu grace period before setting pointer to NULL. Li Zefan is not very keen on introducing synchronize_wait() as he thinks it will slow down moun/remount/umount operations. So for the time being atleast fix the kernel crash by taking a more direct route to blkio_cgroup. One tester had reported a crash while running LTP on a derived kernel and with this fix crash is no more seen while the test has been running for over 6 days.

Fix it by updating __blkdev_get() to issue partition rescan after -ENOMEDIA too.

| * | | cdrom: always check_disk_change() on openTejun Heo2011-04-291-3/+3

The media is known to be gone and the open failure makes it obvious to the userland but device invalidation never happens. * But if the device is opened with O_NONBLOCK, all the checks are bypassed and cdrom_open() doesn't notice that the media is not there and check_disk_change() is called and invalidation happens. There's nothing to be gained by avoiding calling check_disk_change() on open failure. Common cases end up calling check_disk_change() anyway. All we get is inconsistent behavior. Fix it by moving check_disk_change() invocation to the top of cdrom_open() so that it always gets called regardless of how the rest of open proceeds.

Now that block layer supports suppressing exporting unlisted events, simply leaving disk->events cleared allows these drivers to keep the internal revalidation behavior intact while avoiding weird interactions with userland event handler.

These functions should not be used by subdev_do_ioctl. Most of those backwards compatibility functions are just stubs, but commit 87a0c94ce616b231f3c0bd09d7dbd39d43b0557a actually changed the behavior of v4l2_subdev_queryctrl, so calling that one from subdev_do_ioctl broke the control enumeration in subdev nodes.

According to Chapter 10 of Intel Software Developer Manual Volume 3A, Local APIC may signal an illegal vector error when an LVT entry is set as an illegal vector value (0~15) under FIXED delivery mode (bits 8-11 is 0), regardless of whether the mask bit is set or an interrupt actually happen. These errors are seen as error interrupts. The initial value of thermal LVT entries on all APs always reads 0x10000 because APs are woken up by BSP issuing INIT-SIPI-SIPI sequence to them and LVT registers are reset to 0s except for the mask bits which are set to 1s when APs receive INIT IPI. When the BIOS takes over the thermal throttling interrupt, the LVT thermal deliver mode should be SMI and it is required from the kernel to keep AP's LVT thermal monitoring register programmed as such as well. This issue happens when BIOS does not take over thermal throttling interrupt, AP's LVT thermal monitor register will be restored to 0x10000 which means vector 0 and fixed deliver mode, so all APs will signal illegal vector error interrupts. This patch check if interrupt delivery mode is not fixed mode before restoring AP's LVT thermal monitor register.
