Christoph Hellwig ec3cad9690 [PATCH] move rtc compat ioctl handling to fs/compat_ioctl.c
This patch implements generic handling of RTC_IRQP_READ32, RTC_IRQP_SET32,
RTC_EPOCH_READ32 and RTC_EPOCH_SET32 in fs/compat_ioctl.c.  It's based on the
x86_64 code which needed a little massaging to be endian-clean.

parisc used COMPAT_IOCTL or generic w_long handlers for these whichce is wrong
and can't work because the ioctls encode sizeof(unsigned long) in their ioctl
number.  parisc also duplicated COMPAT_IOCTL entries for other rtc ioctls
which I remove in this patch, too.

Grant Grundler 3f902886a8 [PARISC] Disable nesting of interrupts
Disable nesting of interrupts - still has holes

The offending sequence starts out like this:
1) take external interrupt
2) set_eiem() to only allow TIMER_IRQ; local interrupts still disabled
3) read the EIRR to get a "list" of pending interrupts
4) clear EIRR of pending interrupts we intend to handle
5) call __do_IRQ() to handle IRQ.
6) handle_IRQ_event() enables local interrupts (I-Bit)
7) take a timer interrupt
8) read EIRR to get a new list of pending interrupts
9) clear EIRR of pending interrupts we just read
10) handle pending interrupts found in (8)
11) set_eiem(cpu_eiem) and return
        [ TROUBLE! all enabled CPU IRQs are unmasked. }
12) handle remaining interrupts pending from (3)
        e.g. call __do_IRQ() -> handle_IRQ_event()..etc
        [ TROUBLE! call to handle_IRQ_event() can now enable *any* IRQ. }
13) set_eiem(cpu_eiem) and return

The problem is we now get into ugly race conditions with Timer and IPI
interrupts at this point.  I'm not exactly sure what happens when
things go wrong (perhaps nest calls to IPI or timer interrupt?).
But I'm certain it's not good.

This sequence will break sooner if (10) would accidentally leave
interrupts enabled.

I'm pretty sure the right answer is now to make cpu_eiem
a per CPU variable since all external interrupts on parisc
are per CPU. This means we will NOT need to send an IPI to
every CPU in the system when enabling or disabling an IRQ
since only one CPU needs to change it's EIEM.

James Bottomley 9a8b458406 [PARISC] Make sure timer and IPI execute with interrupts disabled
Fix a longstanding smp bug

The problem is that both the timer and ipi interrupts are being called
with interrupts enabled, which isn't what anyone is expecting.

The IPI issue has just started to show up by causing a BUG_ON in the
slab debugging code.  The timer issue never shows up because there's an
eiem work around in our irq.c

The fix is to label both these as SA_INTERRUPT which causes the generic
irq code not to enable interrupts.

I also suspect the smp_call_function timeouts we're seeing might be
connected with the fact that we disable IPIs when handling any other
type of interrupt.  I've put a WARN_ON in the code for executing
smp_call_function() with IPIs disabled.

Nick Piggin 64c7c8f885 [PATCH] sched: resched and cpu_idle rework
Make some changes to the NEED_RESCHED and POLLING_NRFLAG to reduce
confusion, and make their semantics rigid.  Improves efficiency of
resched_task and some cpu_idle routines.

* In resched_task:
- TIF_NEED_RESCHED is only cleared with the task's runqueue lock held,
  and as we hold it during resched_task, then there is no need for an
  atomic test and set there. The only other time this should be set is
  when the task's quantum expires, in the timer interrupt - this is
  protected against because the rq lock is irq-safe.

- If TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set, then we don't need to do anything. It
  won't get unset until the task get's schedule()d off.

- If we are running on the same CPU as the task we resched, then set
  TIF_NEED_RESCHED and no further action is required.

- If we are running on another CPU, and TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG is *not* set
  after TIF_NEED_RESCHED has been set, then we need to send an IPI.

Using these rules, we are able to remove the test and set operation in
resched_task, and make clear the previously vague semantics of
POLLING_NRFLAG.

* In idle routines:
- Enter cpu_idle with preempt disabled. When the need_resched() condition
  becomes true, explicitly call schedule(). This makes things a bit clearer
  (IMO), but haven't updated all architectures yet.

- Many do a test and clear of TIF_NEED_RESCHED for some reason. According
  to the resched_task rules, this isn't needed (and actually breaks the
  assumption that TIF_NEED_RESCHED is only cleared with the runqueue lock
  held). So remove that. Generally one less locked memory op when switching
  to the idle thread.

- Many idle routines clear TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG, and only set it in the inner
  most polling idle loops. The above resched_task semantics allow it to be
  set until before the last time need_resched() is checked before going into
  a halt requiring interrupt wakeup.

  Many idle routines simply never enter such a halt, and so POLLING_NRFLAG
  can be always left set, completely eliminating resched IPIs when rescheduling
  the idle task.

  POLLING_NRFLAG width can be increased, to reduce the chance of resched IPIs.

Nick Piggin 5bfb5d690f [PATCH] sched: disable preempt in idle tasks
Run idle threads with preempt disabled.

Also corrected a bugs in arm26's cpu_idle (make it actually call schedule()).
How did it ever work before?

Might fix the CPU hotplugging hang which Nigel Cunningham noted.

We think the bug hits if the idle thread is preempted after checking
need_resched() and before going to sleep, then the CPU offlined.

After calling stop_machine_run, the CPU eventually returns from preemption and
into the idle thread and goes to sleep.  The CPU will continue executing
previous idle and have no chance to call play_dead.

By disabling preemption until we are ready to explicitly schedule, this bug is
fixed and the idle threads generally become more robust.

Christoph Hellwig 481bed4542 [PATCH] consolidate sys_ptrace()
The sys_ptrace boilerplate code (everything outside the big switch
statement for the arch-specific requests) is shared by most architectures.
This patch moves it to kernel/ptrace.c and leaves the arch-specific code as
arch_ptrace.

Some architectures have a too different ptrace so we have to exclude them.
They continue to keep their implementations.  For sh64 I had to add a
sh64_ptrace wrapper because it does some initialization on the first call.
For um I removed an ifdefed SUBARCH_PTRACE_SPECIAL block, but
SUBARCH_PTRACE_SPECIAL isn't defined anywhere in the tree.

Dave Hansen 208d54e551 [PATCH] memory hotplug locking: node_size_lock
pgdat->node_size_lock is basically only neeeded in one place in the normal
code: show_mem(), which is the arch-specific sysrq-m printing function.

Strictly speaking, the architectures not doing memory hotplug do no need this
locking in show_mem().  However, they are all included for completeness.  This
should also make any future consolidation of all of the implementations a
little more straightforward.

This lock is also held in the sparsemem code during a memory removal, as
sections are invalidated.  This is the place there pfn_valid() is made false
for a memory area that's being removed.  The lock is only required when doing
pfn_valid() operations on memory which the user does not already have a
reference on the page, such as in show_mem().

Hugh Dickins 872fec16d9 [PATCH] mm: init_mm without ptlock
First step in pushing down the page_table_lock.  init_mm.page_table_lock has
been used throughout the architectures (usually for ioremap): not to serialize
kernel address space allocation (that's usually vmlist_lock), but because
pud_alloc,pmd_alloc,pte_alloc_kernel expect caller holds it.

Reverse that: don't lock or unlock init_mm.page_table_lock in any of the
architectures; instead rely on pud_alloc,pmd_alloc,pte_alloc_kernel to take
and drop it when allocating a new one, to check lest a racing task already
did.  Similarly no page_table_lock in vmalloc's map_vm_area.

Some temporary ugliness in __pud_alloc and __pmd_alloc: since they also handle
user mms, which are converted only by a later patch, for now they have to lock
differently according to whether or not it's init_mm.

If sources get muddled, there's a danger that an arch source taking
init_mm.page_table_lock will be mixed with common source also taking it (or
neither take it).  So break the rules and make another change, which should
break the build for such a mismatch: remove the redundant mm arg from
pte_alloc_kernel (ppc64 scrapped its distinct ioremap_mm in 2.6.13).

Exceptions: arm26 used pte_alloc_kernel on user mm, now pte_alloc_map; ia64
used pte_alloc_map on init_mm, now pte_alloc_kernel; parisc had bad args to
pmd_alloc and pte_alloc_kernel in unused USE_HPPA_IOREMAP code; ppc64
map_io_page forgot to unlock on failure; ppc mmu_mapin_ram and ppc64 im_free
took page_table_lock for no good reason.

Fix the alloc_slabmgmt panic

Hopefully this should also fix a lot of other intermittent kernel bugs.

The problem has been around since 2.6.9-rc2-pa6 when we allowed
floating point registers to be used in kernel code.  The essence of
the problem is that gcc prefers to use floating point for integer
divides and multiples.  Further, it can rely on the values in the no
clobber fp regs being correct across a function call.  Unfortunately,
our task switch function only saves the integer no clobber registers,
not the fp ones, so if gcc makes a function call to any function in
the kernel which could sleep, the values it is relying on in any no
clobber floating point register may be lost.  In the case of
alloc_slabmgmt, the value of the page offset is being stored in %fr12
across a call to kmem_getpages(), which sleeps if no pages are
available.  Thus, the offset can be trashed and the slab code can end
up with a completely bogus address leading to corruption.

Kudos to Randolph who came up with the program to trip this problem at
will and thus allowed it to be tracked and fixed.

2.6.12-rc1-pa6 use work queue in LED/LCD driver instead of tasklet.

Main advantage is it allows use of msleep() in the led_LCD_driver to
"atomically" perform two MMIO writes (CMD, then DATA).
Lead to nice cleanup of the main led_work_func() and led_LCD_driver().
Kudos to David for being persistent.
