2008-10-09HPET: make minimum reprogramming delta usefulThomas Gleixner1-2/+2
commit 7cfb0435330364f90f274a26ecdc5f47f738498c upstream The minimum reprogramming delta was hardcoded in HPET ticks, which is stupid as it does not work with faster running HPETs. The C1E idle patches made this prominent on AMD/RS690 chipsets, where the HPET runs with 25MHz. Set it to 5us which seems to be a reasonable value and fixes the problems on the bug reporters machines. We have a further sanity check now in the clock events, which increases the delta when it is not sufficient. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Tested-by: Luiz Fernando N.

2008-10-09clockevents: prevent endless loop lockupThomas Gleixner3-16/+34
commit 1fb9b7d29d8e85ba3196eaa7ab871bf76fc98d36 upstream The C1E/HPET bug reports on AMDX2/RS690 systems where tracked down to a too small value of the HPET minumum delta for programming an event. The clockevents code needs to enforce an interrupt event on the clock event device in some cases. The enforcement code was stupid and naive, as it just added the minimum delta to the current time and tried to reprogram the device. When the minimum delta is too small, then this loops forever. Add a sanity check. Allow reprogramming to fail 3 times, then print a warning and double the minimum delta value to make sure, that this does not happen again. Use the same function for both tick-oneshot and tick-broadcast code.

2008-10-09clockevents: prevent multiple init/shutdownThomas Gleixner1-7/+13
commit 9c17bcda991000351cb2373f78be7e4b1c44caa3 upstream While chasing the C1E/HPET bugreports I went through the clock events code inch by inch and found that the broadcast device can be initialized and shutdown multiple times. Multiple shutdowns are not critical, but useless waste of time. Multiple initializations are simply broken. Another CPU might have the device in use already after the first initialization and the second init could just render it unusable again.

2008-10-09clockevents: enforce reprogram in oneshot setupThomas Gleixner1-4/+14
commit 7205656ab48da29a95d7f55e43a81db755d3cb3a upstream In tick_oneshot_setup we program the device to the given next_event, but we do not check the return value. We need to make sure that the device is programmed enforced so the interrupt handler engine starts working. Split out the reprogramming function from tick_program_event() and call it with the device, which was handed in to tick_setup_oneshot(). Set the force argument, so the devices is firing an interrupt.

2008-10-09clockevents: prevent endless loop in periodic broadcast handlerThomas Gleixner1-3/+8
commit d4496b39559c6d43f83e4c08b899984f8b8089b5 upstream The reprogramming of the periodic broadcast handler was broken, when the first programming returned -ETIME. The clockevents code stores the new expiry value in the clock events device next_event field only when the programming time has not been elapsed yet.

2008-10-09clockevents: prevent clockevent event_handler ending up handler_noopVenkatesh Pallipadi3-2/+4
commit 7c1e76897492d92b6a1c2d6892494d39ded9680c upstream There is a ordering related problem with clockevents code, due to which clockevents_register_device() called after tickless/highres switch will not work. The new clockevent ends up with clockevents_handle_noop as event handler, resulting in no timer activity. The problematic path seems to be * old device already has hrtimer_interrupt as the event_handler * new clockevent device registers with a higher rating * tick_check_new_device() is called * clockevents_exchange_device() gets called * old->event_handler is set to clockevents_handle_noop * tick_setup_device() is called for the new device * which sets new->event_handler using the old->event_handler which is noop. Change the ordering so that new device inherits the proper handler. This does not have any issue in normal case as most likely all the clockevent devices are setup before the highres switch. But, can potentially be affecting some corner case where HPET force detect happens after the highres switch. This was a problem with HPET in MSI mode code that we have been experimenting with.

2008-10-09ACPI: Avoid bogus EC timeout when EC is in Polling modeZhao Yakui1-0/+2
commit 9d699ed92a459cb408e2577e8bbeabc8ec3989e1 upstream When EC is in Polling mode, OS will check the EC status continually by using the following source code: clear_bit(EC_FLAGS_WAIT_GPE, &ec->flags); while (time_before(jiffies, delay)) { if (acpi_ec_check_status(ec, event)) return 0; msleep(1); } But msleep is realized by the function of schedule_timeout. At the same time although one process is already waken up by some events, it won't be scheduled immediately. So maybe there exists the following phenomena: a. The current jiffies is already after the predefined jiffies. But before timeout happens, OS has no chance to check the EC status again. b. If preemptible schedule is enabled, maybe preempt schedule will happen before checking loop. When the process is resumed again, maybe timeout already happens, which means that OS has no chance to check the EC status. In such case maybe EC status is already what OS expects when timeout happens. But OS has no chance to check the EC status and regards it as AE_TIME. So it will be more appropriate that OS will try to check the EC status again when timeout happens. If the EC status is what we expect, it won't be regarded as timeout. Only when the EC status is not what we expect, it will be regarded as timeout, which means that EC controller can't give a response in time. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9823 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11141 Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2008-10-09mm: dirty page tracking race fixNick Piggin3-7/+11
commit 479db0bf408e65baa14d2a9821abfcbc0804b847 upstream There is a race with dirty page accounting where a page may not properly be accounted for. clear_page_dirty_for_io() calls page_mkclean; then TestClearPageDirty. page_mkclean walks the rmaps for that page, and for each one it cleans and write protects the pte if it was dirty. It uses page_check_address to find the pte. That function has a shortcut to avoid the ptl if the pte is not present. Unfortunately, the pte can be switched to not-present then back to present by other code while holding the page table lock -- this should not be a signal for page_mkclean to ignore that pte, because it may be dirty. For example, powerpc64's set_pte_at will clear a previously present pte before setting it to the desired value. There may also be other code in core mm or in arch which do similar things. The consequence of the bug is loss of data integrity due to msync, and loss of dirty page accounting accuracy. XIP's __xip_unmap could easily also be unreliable (depending on the exact XIP locking scheme), which can lead to data corruption. Fix this by having an option to always take ptl to check the pte in page_check_address. It's possible to retain this optimization for page_referenced and try_to_unmap.

The suspected reason for the problem is that signal_struct maintains it's own utime and stime (of exited tasks), these are not updated using the new task_utime() routine, hence sig->utime can go backwards and cause the same problem to occur (sig->utime, adds tsk->utime and not task_utime()). This patch fixes the problem TODO: using max(task->prev_utime, derived utime) works for now, but a more generic solution is to implement cputime_max() and use the cputime_gt() function for comparison.

What do you think? restore_fpu_checking() calls init_fpu() in error conditions. While this is wrong(as our main intention is to clear the fpu state of the thread), this was benign before commit 92d140e21f1 ("x86: fix taking DNA during 64bit sigreturn"). Post commit 92d140e21f1, live FPU registers may not belong to this process at this error scenario. In the error condition for restore_fpu_checking() (especially during the 64bit signal return), we are doing init_fpu(), which saves the live FPU register state (possibly belonging to some other process context) into the thread struct (through unlazy_fpu() in init_fpu()). This is wrong and can leak the FPU data. For the signal handler restore error condition in restore_i387(), clear the fpu state present in the thread struct(before ultimately sending a SIGSEGV for badframe). For the paranoid error condition check in math_state_restore(), send a SIGSEGV, if we fail to restore the state.

[ Upstream commit b30f3ae50cd03ef2ff433a5030fbf88dd8323528] Suresh Siddha wants to fix a possible FPU leakage in error conditions, but the fact that save/restore_i387() are inlines in a header file makes that harder to do than necessary. So start off with an obvious cleanup. This just moves the x86-64 version of save/restore_i387() out of the header file, and moves it to the only file that it is actually used in: arch/x86/kernel/signal_64.c. So exposing it in a header file was wrong to begin with. [ Side note: I'd like to fix up some of the games we play with the 32-bit version of these functions too, but that's a separate matter. The 32-bit versions are shared - under different names at that! - by both the native x86-32 code and the x86-64 32-bit compatibility code ] Acked-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

Upstream-commit-id: df91bc23dcb052ff2da71b3482bf3c5fbf4b8a53 When changing the sample rate, the CMI8788's master clock output becomes unstable for a short time. The AK4396 needs the master clock to do SPI writes, so writing to an AK4396 control register directly after a sample rate change will garble the value. In our case, this leads to the DACs being misconfigured to I2S sample format, which results in a wrong output level and horrible distortions on samples louder than -6 dB. To fix this, we need to wait until the new master clock signal has become stable before doing SPI writes.

commit 83a798207361cc26385187b2e71efa2b5d75de7f upstream Commit de85422b94ddb23c021126815ea49414047c13dc, 'USB: fix interrupt disabling for HCDs with shared interrupt handlers' changed usb_add_hcd() to strip IRQF_DISABLED from irqflags prior to calling request_irq() with the justification that such a removal was necessary for shared interrupts to work properly. Unfortunately, the change in that commit unconditionally removes the IRQF_DISABLED flag, causing problems on platforms that don't use a shared interrupt but require IRQF_DISABLED. This change adds a check for IRQF_SHARED prior to removing the IRQF_DISABLED flag. Fixes the PS3 system startup hang reported with recent Fedora and OpenSUSE kernels. Note that this problem is hidden when CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y (ps3_defconfig), as local_irq_enable_in_hardirq() is defined as a null statement for that config.

2008-10-09pxa2xx_spi: chipselect bugfixesNed Forrester1-11/+48
commit 8423597d676615f3dd2d9ab36f59f147086b90b8 upstream Fixes several chipselect bugs in the pxa2xx_spi driver. These bugs are in all versions of this driver and prevent using it with chips like m25p16 flash. 1. The spi_transfer.cs_change flag is handled too early: before spi_transfer.delay_usecs applies, thus making the delay ineffective at holding chip select. 2. spi_transfer.delay_usecs is ignored on the last transfer of a message (likewise not holding chipselect long enough). 3. If spi_transfer.cs_change is set on the last transfer, the chip select is always disabled, instead of the intended meaning: optionally holding chip select enabled for the next message. Those first three bugs were fixed with a relocation of delays and chip select de-assertions. 4. If a message has the cs_change flag set on the last transfer, and had the chip select stayed enabled as requested (see 3, above), it would not have been disabled if the next message is for a different chip. Fixed by dropping chip select regardless of cs_change at end of a message, if there is no next message or if the next message is for a different chip. This patch should apply to all kernels back to and including 2.6.20; it was test patched against 2.6.20. An additional patch would be required for older kernels, but those versions are very buggy anyway.

2008-10-09pxa2xx_spi: dma bugfixesNed Forrester1-14/+43
commit 7e96445533ac3f4f7964646a202ff3620602fab4 upstream Fixes two DMA bugs in the pxa2xx_spi driver. The first bug is in all versions of this driver; the second was introduced in the 2.6.20 kernel, and prevents using the driver with chips like m25p16 flash (which can issue large DMA reads). 1. Zero length transfers are permitted for use to insert timing, but pxa2xx_spi.c will fail if this is requested in DMA mode. Fixed by using programmed I/O (PIO) mode for such transfers. 2. Transfers larger than 8191 are not permitted in DMA mode. A test for length rejects all large transfers regardless of DMA or PIO mode. Worked around by rejecting only large transfers with DMA mapped buffers, and forcing all other transfers larger than 8191 to use PIO mode. A rate limited warning is issued for DMA transfers forced to PIO mode. This patch should apply to all kernels back to and including 2.6.20; it was test patched against 2.6.20. An additional patch would be required for older kernels, but those versions are very buggy anyway.

2008-10-09mm: mark the correct zone as full when scanning zonelistsMel Gorman2-7/+7
commit 5bead2a0680687b9576d57c177988e8aa082b922 upstream The iterator for_each_zone_zonelist() uses a struct zoneref *z cursor when scanning zonelists to keep track of where in the zonelist it is. The zoneref that is returned corresponds to the the next zone that is to be scanned, not the current one. It was intended to be treated as an opaque list. When the page allocator is scanning a zonelist, it marks elements in the zonelist corresponding to zones that are temporarily full. As the zonelist is being updated, it uses the cursor here; if (NUMA_BUILD) zlc_mark_zone_full(zonelist, z); This is intended to prevent rescanning in the near future but the zoneref cursor does not correspond to the zone that has been found to be full. This is an easy misunderstanding to make so this patch corrects the problem by changing zoneref cursor to be the current zone being scanned instead of the next one.
