* VM: add "vm_mmap()" helper functionLinus Torvalds2012-04-201-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This continues the theme started with vm_brk() and vm_munmap(): vm_mmap() does the same thing as do_mmap(), but additionally does the required VM locking. This uninlines (and rewrites it to be clearer) do_mmap(), which sadly duplicates it in mm/mmap.c and mm/nommu.c. But that way we don't have to export our internal do_mmap_pgoff() function. Some day we hopefully don't have to export do_mmap() either, if all modular users can become the simpler vm_mmap() instead. We're actually very close to that already, with the notable exception of the (broken) use in i810, and a couple of stragglers in binfmt_elf.

* arch/tile: avoid unused variable warning in proc.c for tilegxChris Metcalf2012-04-111-3/+1
| | | | | | | | Until we push the unaligned access support for tilegx, it's silly to have arch/tile/kernel/proc.c generate a warning about an unused variable. Extend the #ifdef to cover all the code and data for now. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

| * arch/tile: avoid accidentally unmasking NMI-type interrupt accidentallyChris Metcalf2012-04-022-7/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The return path as we reload registers and core state requires that r30 hold a boolean indicating whether we are returning from an NMI, but in a couple of cases we weren't setting this properly, with the result that we could accidentally unmask the NMI interrupt(s), which could cause confusion. Now we set r30 in every place where we jump into the interrupt return path. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
| * arch/tile: remove bogus performance optimizationChris Metcalf2012-04-021-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We were re-homing the initial task's kernel stack on the boot cpu, but in fact it's better to let it stay globally homed, since that task isn't bound to the boot cpu anyway. This is more of a general cleanup than an actual performance optimization, but it removes code, which is a good thing. :-) Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

| * arch/tile: fix finv_buffer_remote() for tilegxChris Metcalf2012-04-021-2/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There were some correctness issues with this code that are now fixed with this change. The change is likely less performant than it could be, but it should no longer be vulnerable to any races with memory operations on the memory network while invalidating a range of memory. This code is run infrequently so performance isn't critical, but correctness definitely is. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we are single-stepping and make a syscall, we call ptrace_notify() explicitly on the return path back to user space, since we are returning to a pc value set artificially to the next instruction, and otherwise we won't register that we stepped over the syscall instruction (swint1).

Then, only if we are walking the other root page tables to update them, do we want to take the pgd_lock.

| * arch/tile: various bugs in stack backtracerChris Metcalf2012-04-022-120/+112
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix a long-standing bug in the stack backtracer where we would print garbage to the console instead of kernel function names, if the kernel wasn't built with symbol support (e.g. mboot). Make sure to tag every line of userspace backtrace output if we actually have the mmap_sem, since that way if there's no tag, we know that it's because we couldn't trylock the semaphore. Stop doing a TLB flush and examining page tables during backtrace. Instead, just trust that __copy_from_user_inatomic() will properly fault and return a failure, which it should do in all cases. Fix a latent bug where the backtracer would directly examine a signal context in user space, rather than copying it safely to kernel memory first. This meant that a race with another thread could potentially have caused a kernel panic. Guard against unaligned sp when trying to restart backtrace at an interrupt or signal handler point in the kernel backtracer. Report kernel symbolic information for the call instruction rather than for the following instruction. We still report the actual numeric address corresponding to the instruction after the call, for the sake of consistency with the normal expectations for stack backtracers.

| * [PATCH v3] ipc: provide generic compat versions of IPC syscallsChris Metcalf2012-03-152-54/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When using the "compat" APIs, architectures will generally want to be able to make direct syscalls to msgsnd(), shmctl(), etc., and in the kernel we would want them to be handled directly by compat_sys_xxx() functions, as is true for other compat syscalls. However, for historical reasons, several of the existing compat IPC syscalls do not do this. semctl() expects a pointer to the fourth argument, instead of the fourth argument itself. msgsnd(), msgrcv() and shmat() expect arguments in different order. This change adds an ARCH_WANT_OLD_COMPAT_IPC config option that can be set to preserve this behavior for ports that use it (x86, sparc, powerpc, s390, and mips). No actual semantics are changed for those architectures, and there is only a minimal amount of code refactoring in ipc/compat.c. Newer architectures like tile (and perhaps future architectures such as arm64 and unicore64) should not select this option, and thus can avoid having any IPC-specific code at all in their architecture-specific compat layer. In the same vein, if this option is not selected, IPC_64 mode is assumed, since that's what the <asm-generic> headers expect. The workaround code in "tile" for msgsnd() and msgrcv() is removed with this change; it also fixes the bug that shmat() and semctl() were not being properly handled.

Still, kernel code will at times interrupt all CPUs in the system via IPIs for various needs. These IPIs are useful and cannot be avoided altogether, but in certain cases it is possible to interrupt only specific CPUs that have useful work to do and not the entire system. This patch set, inspired by discussions with Peter Zijlstra and Frederic Weisbecker when testing the nohz task patch set, is a first stab at trying to explore doing this by locating the places where such global IPI calls are being made and turning the global IPI into an IPI for a specific group of CPUs. The purpose of the patch set is to get feedback if this is the right way to go for dealing with this issue and indeed, if the issue is even worth dealing with at all. Based on the feedback from this patch set I plan to offer further patches that address similar issue in other code paths. This patch creates an on_each_cpu_mask() and on_each_cpu_cond() infrastructure API (the former derived from existing arch specific versions in Tile and Arm) and uses them to turn several global IPI invocation to per CPU group invocations. Core kernel: on_each_cpu_mask() calls a function on processors specified by cpumask, which may or may not include the local processor. You must not call this function with disabled interrupts or from a hardware interrupt handler or from a bottom half handler. arch/arm: Note that the generic version is a little different then the Arm one: 1. It has the mask as first parameter 2. It calls the function on the calling CPU with interrupts disabled, but this should be OK since the function is called on the other CPUs with interrupts disabled anyway. arch/tile: The API is the same as the tile private one, but the generic version also calls the function on the with interrupts disabled in UP case This is OK since the function is called on the other CPUs with interrupts disabled.

I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can and made sure that they don't break. The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2(). This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h. The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg. memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()). These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces: (1) asm/barrier.h Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha. (2) asm/switch_to.h Move switch_to() and related stuff here. (3) asm/exec.h Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h. (4) asm/cmpxchg.h Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg(). (5) asm/bug.h Move die() and related bits. (6) asm/auxvec.h Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here. Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis." Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat weakened by that. We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it.. * tag 'split-asm_system_h-for-linus-20120328' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-asm_system: (38 commits) Delete all instances of asm/system.h Remove all #inclusions of asm/system.h Add #includes needed to permit the removal of asm/system.h Move all declarations of free_initmem() to linux/mm.h Disintegrate asm/system.h for OpenRISC Split arch_align_stack() out from asm-generic/system.h Split the switch_to() wrapper out of asm-generic/system.h Move the asm-generic/system.h xchg() implementation to asm-generic/cmpxchg.h Create asm-generic/barrier.h Make asm-generic/cmpxchg.h #include asm-generic/cmpxchg-local.h Disintegrate asm/system.h for Xtensa Disintegrate asm/system.h for Unicore32 [based on ver #3, changed by gxt] Disintegrate asm/system.h for Tile Disintegrate asm/system.h for Sparc Disintegrate asm/system.h for SH Disintegrate asm/system.h for Score Disintegrate asm/system.h for S390 Disintegrate asm/system.h for PowerPC Disintegrate asm/system.h for PA-RISC Disintegrate asm/system.h for MN10300 ...

* | | coredump: remove VM_ALWAYSDUMP flagJason Baron2012-03-231-7/+1
|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The motivation for this patchset was that I was looking at a way for a qemu-kvm process, to exclude the guest memory from its core dump, which can be quite large. There are already a number of filter flags in /proc/<pid>/coredump_filter, however, these allow one to specify 'types' of kernel memory, not specific address ranges (which is needed in this case). Since there are no more vma flags available, the first patch eliminates the need for the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag. The flag is used internally by the kernel to mark vdso and vsyscall pages. However, it is simple enough to check if a vma covers a vdso or vsyscall page without the need for this flag. The second patch then replaces the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag with a new 'VM_NODUMP' flag, which can be set by userspace using new madvise flags: 'MADV_DONTDUMP', and unset via 'MADV_DODUMP'. The core dump filters continue to work the same as before unless 'MADV_DONTDUMP' is set on the region. The qemu code which implements this features is at: http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/qemu-dump/qemu-dump.patch In my testing the qemu core dump shrunk from 383MB -> 13MB with this patch. I also believe that the 'MADV_DONTDUMP' flag might be useful for security sensitive apps, which might want to select which areas are dumped. This patch: The VM_ALWAYSDUMP flag is currently used by the coredump code to indicate that a vma is part of a vsyscall or vdso section. However, we can determine if a vma is in one these sections by checking it against the gate_vma and checking for a non-NULL return value from arch_vma_name(). Thus, freeing a valuable vma bit.
