* [S390] Remove Kerntypes leftoversHeiko Carstens2011-12-273-36/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Remove last traces of our kerntypes patch which was always an addon patch which never got upstream. Somehow a few bits got upstream anyway. Since kerntypes aren't used anymore and lcrash isn't maintained (for s390 at least) remove the last traces of kerntypes that somehow went upstream. Also remove the documentation that mentions lcrash.

* [S390] topology: increase poll frequency if change is anticipatedHeiko Carstens2011-12-273-8/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | Increase cpu topology change poll frequency if a change is anticipated. Otherwise a user might be a bit confused to have to wait up to a minute in order to see a change this should be visible immediatly. However there is no guarantee that the change will happen during the time frame the poll frequency is increased.

* [S390] entry[64].S improvementsMartin Schwidefsky2011-12-278-1237/+1002
| | | | | | | | | Another round of cleanup for entry[64].S, in particular the program check handler looks more reasonable now. The code size for the 31 bit kernel has been reduced by 616 byte and by 528 byte for the 64 bit version. Even better the code is a bit faster as well.

* [S390] kvm: move cmf host id constant out of lowcoreMartin Schwidefsky2011-12-274-5/+6
| | | | | | | | | There is no reason for the cpu-measurement-facility host id constant to reside in the lowcore where space is precious. Use an entry in the literal pool in HANDLE_SIE_INTERCEPT and a stack slot in sie64a. While we are at it replace the id -1 with 0 to indicate host execution.

SCHED_MC without SCHED_BOOK is not possible anymore. Furthermore various sysfs attributes are not available anymore for the !SCHED_BOOK case. In particular all attributes that correspond to CPU polarization. But since all real world kernels have SCHED_BOOK selected anyway this doesn't matter too much.

* [S390] kernel: Fix smp_switch_to_ipl_cpu() stack frame setupMichael Holzheu2011-12-271-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, when smp_switch_to_ipl_cpu() is done, the backchain in the dump analysis tool crash looks like the following: #0 [1f746e70] __machine_kexec at 11dd92 #1 [1f746eb8] smp_restart_cpu at 11820e #0 [00907eb0] cpu_idle at 10602e #1 [00907ef8] start_kernel at 979a08 It would be good to see the registers of the interrupted function. To achieve this, the backchain on the new stack has to be set to zero.

* [S390] add support for physical memory > 4TBMartin Schwidefsky2011-12-275-53/+68
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel address space of a 64 bit kernel currently uses a three level page table and the vmemmap array has a fixed address and a fixed maximum size. A three level page table is good enough for systems with less than 3.8TB of memory, for bigger systems four page table levels need to be used. Each page table level costs a bit of performance, use 3 levels for normal systems and 4 levels only for the really big systems. To avoid bloating sparse.o too much set MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS to 46 for a maximum of 64TB of memory. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

* [S390] Check for NULL termination in command line setupMichael Holzheu2011-12-271-8/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current code in setup_boot_command_line() uses a heuristic to detect an EBCDIC command line. It checks if any of the bytes in the command line has bit one (0x80) set. In that case it is assumed that we have an EBCDIC string and the complete command line is converted. On s390 there are cases where the boot loader provides a kernel command line that is NULL terminated, but has random data after the NULL termination. In that case, setup_boot_command_line() might misinterpret an ASCII string for an EBCDIC string. A subsequent string conversion can then damage the ASCII string. This patch solves the problem by checking for NULL termination. If no EBCDIC character has been found until the the NULL termination has been found, we now assume that we have an ASCII string.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unlike all of the other cpuid bits, the TSC deadline timer bit is set unconditionally, regardless of what userspace wants. This is broken in several ways: - if userspace doesn't use KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, and doesn't emulate the TSC deadline timer feature, a guest that uses the feature will break - live migration to older host kernels that don't support the TSC deadline timer will cause the feature to be pulled from under the guest's feet; breaking it - guests that are broken wrt the feature will fail. Fix by not enabling the feature automatically; instead report it to userspace. Because the feature depends on KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, which we cannot guarantee will be called, we expose it via a KVM_CAP_TSC_DEADLINE_TIMER and not KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID. Fixes the Illumos guest kernel, which uses the TSC deadline timer feature.

Devices without BAR resources are typically chipset components that also don't have host drivers. We don't want users to hold such devices captive or cause system problems by fencing them off into an iommu domain. We determine "permission to use" by testing whether the user has access to the PCI sysfs resource files. By default a normal user will not have access to these files, so it provides a good indication that an administration agent has granted the user access to the device.

| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bruce Fields notes that commit 778fc546f749 ("locks: fix tracking of inprogress lease breaks") introduced a possible error pointer dereference on failure to allocate memory. locks_conflict() will dereference the passed-in new lease lock structure that may be an error pointer. This means an open (without O_NONBLOCK set) on a file with a lease applied (generally only done when Samba or nfsd (with v4) is running) could crash if a kmalloc() fails. So instead of playing games with IS_ERROR() all over the place, just check the allocation failure early. That makes the code more straightforward, and avoids this possible bad pointer dereference.

Soft-lockups detected as a consequence of this race was reported earlier at https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/24/185. (Thanks to Cong Meng for finding out that the root-cause of this issue is the race condition between br_write_[un]lock() and CPU hotplug, which results in the lock states getting messed up). Fixing this race by just adding {get,put}_online_cpus() at appropriate places in *_global_[un]lock_online() is not a good option, because, then suddenly br_write_[un]lock() would become blocking, whereas they have been kept as non-blocking all this time, and we would want to keep them that way. So, overall, we want to ensure 3 things: 1. br_write_lock() and br_write_unlock() must remain as non-blocking. 2. The corresponding lock and unlock of the per-cpu spinlocks must not happen for different sets of CPUs. 3. Either prevent any new CPU online operation in between this lock-unlock, or ensure that the newly onlined CPU does not proceed with its corresponding per-cpu spinlock unlocked. To achieve all this: (a) We introduce a new spinlock that is taken by the *_global_lock_online() routine and released by the *_global_unlock_online() routine. (b) We register a callback for CPU hotplug notifications, and this callback takes the same spinlock as above. (c) We maintain a bitmap which is close to the cpu_online_mask, and once it is initialized in the lock_init() code, all future updates to it are done in the callback, under the above spinlock. (d) The above bitmap is used (instead of cpu_online_mask) while locking and unlocking the per-cpu locks. The callback takes the spinlock upon the CPU_UP_PREPARE event. So, if the br_write_lock-unlock sequence is in progress, the callback keeps spinning, thus preventing the CPU online operation till the lock-unlock sequence is complete. This takes care of requirement (3). The bitmap that we maintain remains unmodified throughout the lock-unlock sequence, since all updates to it are managed by the callback, which takes the same spinlock as the one taken by the lock code and released only by the unlock routine. Combining this with (d) above, satisfies requirement (2). Overall, since we use a spinlock (mentioned in (a)) to prevent CPU hotplug operations from racing with br_write_lock-unlock, requirement (1) is also taken care of. By the way, it is to be noted that a CPU offline operation can actually run in parallel with our lock-unlock sequence, because our callback doesn't react to notifications earlier than CPU_DEAD (in order to maintain our bitmap properly). And this means, since we use our own bitmap (which is stale, on purpose) during the lock-unlock sequence, we could end up unlocking the per-cpu lock of an offline CPU (because we had locked it earlier, when the CPU was online), in order to satisfy requirement (2). But this is harmless, though it looks a bit awkward. Debugged-by: Cong Meng <mc@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.

And if, one day, another architecture supports UML too, that should now work without again breaking this make target.

We need to set the MSIQ to VALID before we can set it's state to IDLE. On Niagara-T3, setting the state to IDLE first was causing HV_EINVAL errors. The hypervisor documentation says, rather ambiguously, that the MSIQ must be "initialized" before one can set the state. I previously understood this to mean merely that a successful setconf() operation has been performed on the MSIQ, which we have done at this point. But it seems to also mean that it has been set VALID too. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

As there is no explict "invert match" toggle in the match structure, userspace swaps the from and to arguments (i.e., as if "--connbytes 42:23" were given). However, "what <= 23 && what >= 42" will always be false. Change things so we use "||" in case "from" is larger than "to". This change may look like it breaks backwards compatibility when "to" is 0. However, older iptables binaries will refuse "connbytes 42:0", and current releases treat it to mean "! --connbytes 0:42", so we should be fine.
