14 years agoirq: Fix circular headers dependency
Frederic Weisbecker [Wed, 8 Sep 2010 12:26:00 +0000 (14:26 +0200)]
irq: Fix circular headers dependency

asm-generic/hardirq.h needs asm/irq.h which might include
linux/interrupt.h as in the sparc 32 case. At this point
we need irq_cpustat generic definitions, but those are
included later in asm-generic/hardirq.h.

Then delay a bit the inclusion of irq.h from
asm-generic/hardirq.h, it doesn't need to be included early.

This fixes:

 include/linux/interrupt.h: In function '__raise_softirq_irqoff':
 include/linux/interrupt.h:414: error: implicit declaration of function 'local_softirq_pending'
 include/linux/interrupt.h:414: error: lvalue required as left operand of assignment

perf: Optimize context ops

Assuming we don't mix events of different pmus onto a single context
(with the exeption of software events inside a hardware group) we can
now assume that all events on a particular context belong to the same
pmu, hence we can disable the pmu for the entire context operations.

This reduces the amount of hardware writes.

The exception for swevents comes from the fact that the sw pmu disable
is a nop.

The new interface extends the capability to stop a counter while

the generic stopped state.

This also allows us to efficiently stop/start counters over certain
code paths (like IRQ handlers).

It also allows scheduling a counter without it starting, allowing for
a generic frozen state (useful for rotating stopped counters).

The stopped state is implemented in two different ways, depending on
how the architecture implemented the throttled state:

 1) We disable the counter:
    a) the pmu has per-counter enable bits, we flip that
    b) we program a NOP event, preserving the counter state

 2) We store the counter state and ignore all read/overflow events

14 years agotracing: Do not allow llseek to set_ftrace_filter
Steven Rostedt [Wed, 8 Sep 2010 15:20:37 +0000 (11:20 -0400)]
tracing: Do not allow llseek to set_ftrace_filter

Reading the file set_ftrace_filter does three things.

1) shows whether or not filters are set for the function tracer
2) shows what functions are set for the function tracer
3) shows what triggers are set on any functions

3 is independent from 1 and 2.

The way this file currently works is that it is a state machine,
and as you read it, it may change state. But this assumption breaks
when you use lseek() on the file. The state machine gets out of sync
and the t_show() may use the wrong pointer and cause a kernel oops.

Luckily, this will only kill the app that does the lseek, but the app
dies while holding a mutex. This prevents anyone else from using the
set_ftrace_filter file (or any other function tracing file for that matter).

A real fix for this is to rewrite the code, but that is too much for
a -rc release or stable. This patch simply disables llseek on the
set_ftrace_filter() file for now, and we can do the proper fix for the
next major release.

perf, x86: Try to handle unknown nmis with an enabled PMU

When the PMU is enabled it is valid to have unhandled nmis, two
events could trigger 'simultaneously' raising two back-to-back
NMIs. If the first NMI handles both, the latter will be empty
and daze the CPU.

The solution to avoid an 'unknown nmi' massage in this case was
simply to stop the nmi handler chain when the PMU is enabled by
stating the nmi was handled. This has the drawback that a) we
can not detect unknown nmis anymore, and b) subsequent nmi
handlers are not called.

This patch addresses this. Now, we check this unknown NMI if it
could be a PMU back-to-back NMI. Otherwise we pass it and let
the kernel handle the unknown nmi.

perf, x86: Fix accidentally ack'ing a second event on intel perf counter

getting unknown nmis when using the perf tool.

Moving the ack'ing of the PMI closer to when we get the status
allows the hardware to properly re-set the PMU bit signaling
another PMI was triggered during the processing of the first

shortcomings of multiple PMIs to handle the extra NMI by
'eat'ing it later.

Now one can wonder why are we getting a second PMI when we
disable all the PMUs in the begining of the NMI handler to
prevent such a case, for that I do not know.  But I know the fix

ring-buffer: Place duplicate expression into a single function

While discussing the strictness of the 80 character limit on the
Kernel Summit Discussion mailing list, I showed examples that I
broke that limit slightly with some algorithms. In discussing with
John Linville, what looked better, I realized that two of the
80 char breaking culprits were an identical expression.

As a clean up, this patch moves the identical expression into its
own helper function and that is used instead. As a side effect,
the offending code is now under the 80 character limit. :-)

This clean up code also changes the expression from

(A - B) - C  to  A - (B + C)

This makes the code look a little nicer too.

The root children hits is multiplied by the minimum percentage

hits expected from children branches. If the random value due

14 years agooprofile: fix crash when accessing freed task structs
Robert Richter [Fri, 13 Aug 2010 14:29:04 +0000 (16:29 +0200)]
oprofile: fix crash when accessing freed task structs

This patch fixes a crash during shutdown reported below. The crash is
caused by accessing already freed task structs. The fix changes the
order for registering and unregistering notifier callbacks.

All notifiers must be initialized before buffers start working. To
stop buffer synchronization we cancel all workqueues, unregister the
notifier callback and then flush all buffers. After all of this we
finally can free all tasks listed.

This should avoid accessing freed tasks.

[S390] fix tlb flushing vs. concurrent /proc accesses

The tlb flushing code uses the mm_users field of the mm_struct to
decide if each page table entry needs to be flushed individually with
IPTE or if a global flush for the mm_struct is sufficient after all page
table updates have been done. The comment for mm_users says "How many
users with user space?" but the /proc code increases mm_users after it
found the process structure by pid without creating a new user process.
Which makes mm_users useless for the decision between the two tlb
flusing methods. The current code can be confused to not flush tlb
entries by a concurrent access to /proc files if e.g. a fork is in
progres. The solution for this problem is to make the tlb flushing
logic independent from the mm_users field.

14 years agosparc64: Get rid of indirect p1275 PROM call buffer.

sparc64: Get rid of indirect p1275 PROM call buffer.

This is based upon a report by Meelis Roos showing that it's possible
that we'll try to fetch a property that is 32K in size with some
devices.  With the current fixed 3K buffer we use for moving data in
and out of the firmware during PROM calls, that simply won't work.

In fact, it will scramble random kernel data during bootup.

The reasoning behind the temporary buffer is entirely historical.  It
used to be the case that we had problems referencing dynamic kernel
memory (including the stack) early in the boot process before we
explicitly told the firwmare to switch us over to the kernel trap
table.

So what we did was always give the firmware buffers that were locked
into the main kernel image.

But we no longer have problems like that, so get rid of all of this
indirect bounce buffering.

Besides fixing Meelis's bug, this also makes the kernel data about 3K
smaller.

It was also discovered during these conversions that the
implementation of prom_retain() was completely wrong, so that was
fixed here as well.  Currently that interface is not in use.

initialised before checking "should we add a bolted SLB entry for our kstack?"

Failing to do so means stack access requires an SLB miss exception to refill
an entry dynamically, if the stack isn't accessible via SLB(0) (kernel text

intermittent crashes will result.

Primary CPUs don't have this issue; an SLB entry is not bolted for their

powerpc: Make rwsem use "long" type

This makes the 64-bit kernel use 64-bit signed integers for the counter
(effectively supporting 32-bit of active count in the semaphore), thus
avoiding things like overflow of the mmap_sem if you use a really crazy
number of threads

Note: Ideally the type in the structure should be atomic_long_t rather
than "long". However, there's some nasty issues with that. It needs to
be initialized statically -and- lib/rwsem.c does things like

        sem->count = RWSEM_UNLOCKED_VALUE;

Now, if you mix in the fact that atomic_* types are actually structures
with one member and note typedefs of a scalar, it makes its really nasty.

So I stuck to what we did before using a long and casts for now.
