Kick CPUS that might be sleeping in cpus_idle_wait
Sometimes cpu_idle_wait gets stuck because it might miss CPUS that are
already in idle, have no tasks waiting to run and have no interrupts going
to them. This is common on bootup when switching cpu idle governors.
This patch gives those CPUS that don't check in an IPI kick.
Background:
-----------
I notice this while developing the mcount patches, that every once in a
while the system would hang. Looking deeper, the hang was always at boot
up when registering init_menu of the cpu_idle menu governor. Talking
with Thomas Gliexner, we discovered that one of the CPUS had no timer
events scheduled for it and it was in idle (running with NO_HZ). So the
CPU would not set the cpu_idle_state bit.
Hitting sysrq-t a few times would eventually route the interrupt to the
stuck CPU and the system would continue.
Note, I would have used the PDA isidle but that is set after the
cpu_idle_state bit is cleared, and would leave a window open where we
may miss being kicked.
hmm, looking closer at this, we still have a small race window between
clearing the cpu_idle_state and disabling interrupts (hence the RFC).
CPU0: CPU 1:
--------- ---------
cpu_idle_wait(): cpu_idle():
| __cpu_cpu_var(is_idle) = 1;
| if (__get_cpu_var(cpu_idle_state)) /* == 0 */
per_cpu(cpu_idle_state, 1) = 1; |
if (per_cpu(is_idle, 1)) /* == 1 */ |
smp_call_function(1) |
| receives ipi and runs do_nothing.
wait on map == empty idle();
/* waits forever */
So really we need interrupts off for most of this then. One might think
that we could simply clear the cpu_idle_state from do_nothing, but I'm
assuming that cpu_idle governors can be removed, and this might cause a
race that a governor might be used after the module was removed.
Venki said:
I think your RFC patch is the right solution here. As I see it, there is
no race with your RFC patch. As long as you call a dummy smp_call_function
on all CPUs, we should be OK. We can get rid of cpu_idle_state and the
current wait forever logic altogether with dummy smp_call_function. And so
there wont be any wait forever scenario.
The whole point of cpu_idle_wait() is to make all CPUs come out of idle
loop atleast once. The caller will use cpu_idle_wait something like this.
// Want to change idle handler
- Switch global idle handler to always present default_idle
- call cpu_idle_wait so that all cpus come out of idle for an instant
and stop using old idle pointer and start using default idle
- Change the idle handler to a new handler
- optional cpu_idle_wait if you want all cpus to start using the new
handler immediately.
Maybe the below 1s patch is safe bet for .24. But for .25, I would say we
just replace all complicated logic by simple dummy smp_call_function and
remove cpu_idle_state altogether.

ps3fb: fix deadlock on kexec()
Since the introduction of the acquire_console_sem calls in
0333d83509c7d8496c8965b5ba9bc0c98e83c259, kexecing can cause the
kernel to deadlock:
ps3fb_shutdown()
-> unregister_framebuffer()
-> fb_notifier_call_chain(FB_EVENT_FB_UNBIND)
-> fbcon_fb_unbind()
-> unbind_con_driver()
-> bind_con_driver()
[ acquires console_sem ]
-> fbcon_deinit()
-> fbops->fb_release(newinfo, 0)
-> ps3fb_release()
-> ps3fb_sync()
[ acquires console_sem ]
This change avoids the deadlock by moving the acquire_console_sem()
out of ps3fb_sync(), and puts it into the two other callsites, leaving
ps3fb_release() to call ps3fb_sync() without the console semaphore.
[Geert]
- Corrected call sequence above
- ps3fb_release() may be called with and without console_sem held. This is an
inconsistency that should be fixed at the fb level, but for now, try to
acquire console_sem in ps3fb_release().
I think it's safer to let ps3fb_release() try to acquire console_sem and
not refresh the screen if it fails, than to call ps3fb_sync() without
holding console_sem, as ps3fb_par may be modified at the same time, causing
crashes or lockups.
Besides, ps3fb_release() only calls ps3fb_sync() to refresh the screen
when display flipping is disabled, which is an uncommon case (except during
shutdown/kexec).

PM: ACPI and APM must not be enabled at the same time
ACPI and APM used "pm_active" to guarantee that
they would not be simultaneously active.
But pm_active was recently moved under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY,
so that without CONFIG_PM_LEGACY, pm_active became a NOP --
allowing ACPI and APM to both be simultaneously enabled.
This caused unpredictable results, including boot hangs.
Further, the code under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY is scheduled
for removal.
So replace pm_active with pm_flags.
pm_flags depends only on CONFIG_PM,

[MIPS] Malta: Fix software reset on big endian
I noticed that the commit
f197465384bf7ef1af184c2ed1a4e268911a91e3
(MIPS Tech: Get rid of volatile in core code) broke the software
reset functionality for MIPS Malta boards in big-endian mode.
According to the MIPS Malta board user's manual, writing the magic
32-bit GORESET value into the SOFTRES register initiates board soft
reset. My experimentation has shown that the endianness of the GORESET
integer should thereby be the same as the endianness, which has been
set for the CPU itself. The writew() function used to write the magic
value in the code introduced by the commit mentioned above, however,
swaps bytes for big-endian kernels and transfers 16 bits instead of 32.
The patch below replaces the writew() function by the __raw_writel()
routine, which leaves the byte order intact and transfers the whole
MIPS machine word. Trivial code cleanup (replacing spaces by a tab
and cutting oversized lines to make checkpatch.pl happy) is also
included.
The patch was tested using a Malta evaluation board running in both
BE and LE modes. For both modes, software reset was fully functional
after the change.
P.S. I suspect that the same commit broke the "standby" functionality
for MIPS Atlas boards. However, I did not touch the Atlas code as I
don't have such board at my disposal and also because the linux-mips.org
Web site claims that Atlas support is scheduled for removal.

libata: don't normalize UNKNOWN to NONE after reset
After non-classifying reset, ehc->classes[] could contain
ATA_DEV_UNKNOWN which used to be normalized to ATA_DEV_NONE for
consistency. However, this causes unfortunate side effect for drivers
which have non-classifying hardresets (e.g. sata_nv) by making
hardreset report ATA_DEV_NONE for non-classifying resets and thus
makes EH believe that the port is unoccupied and recovery can be
skipped. The end result is that after a device is swapped with
another one, the new device isn't attached after the old one is
detached.
This patch makes ata_eh_reset() not normalize UNKNOWN to NONE after
non-classifying resets. This fixes the above problem. As UNKNOWN and
NONE are handled differently by only EH hotplug logic, this doesn't

rt2x00: Allow rt61 to catch up after a missing tx report
Sometimes it happens in the tx path that an entry given to the hardware isn't
reported in the txdone handler. This ultimately led to the dreaded "non-free
entry in the non-full queue" message and the stopping of the tx queue. Work
around this issue by allowing the driver to also clear out previos entries in
the txdone handler.

[CRYPTO] padlock: Fix alignment fault in aes_crypt_copy
The previous patch fixed spurious read faults from occuring by copying
the data if we happen to have a single block at the end of a page. It
appears that gcc cannot guarantee 16-byte alignment in the kernel with
__attribute__. The following report from Torben Viets shows a buffer
that's only 8-byte aligned:

Since the hardware must have 16-byte alignment, the following patch fixes
this by open coding the alignment adjustment.

The new network driver fec_mpc52xx will not work on efika because the

http://www.powerdeveloper.org/asset/by-id/46 has a Forth script to

Al went through the ip_fast_csum callers and found this piece of code

This patch ensures that the skb has enough data for an IP header and

alg_key_len is the length in bits of the key, not in bytes.
Best way to fix this is to move alg_len() function from net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c
to include/net/xfrm.h, and to use it in xfrm_algo_clone()
alg_len() is renamed to xfrm_alg_len() because of its global exposition.
