2010-09-09x86, kdump: Change copy_oldmem_page() to use cached addressingCliff Wickman
The copy of /proc/vmcore to a user buffer proceeds much faster if the kernel addresses memory as cached. With this patch we have seen an increase in transfer rate from less than 15MB/s to 80-460MB/s, depending on size of the transfer. This makes a big difference in time needed to save a system dump.

2010-08-23x86, mm: Avoid unnecessary TLB flushShaohua Li
In x86, access and dirty bits are set automatically by CPU when CPU accesses memory. When we go into the code path of below flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault(), we already set dirty bit for pte and don't need flush tlb. This might mean tlb entry in some CPUs hasn't dirty bit set, but this doesn't matter. When the CPUs do page write, they will automatically check the bit and no software involved. On the other hand, flush tlb in below position is harmful. Test creates CPU number of threads, each thread writes to a same but random address in same vma range and we measure the total time. Under a 4 socket system, original time is 1.96s, while with the patch, the time is 0.8s. Under a 2 socket system, there is 20% time cut too. perf shows a lot of time are taking to send ipi/handle ipi for tlb flush.

When testing cpu hotplug code on 32-bit we kept hitting the "CPU%d: Stuck ??" message due to multiple cores concurrently accessing the cpu_callin_mask, among others. Since these codepaths are not protected from concurrent access due to the fact that there's no sane reason for making an already complex code unnecessarily more complex - we hit the issue only when insanely switching cores off- and online - serialize hotplugging cores on the sysfs level and be done with it.

2010-08-18x86-32: Separate 1:1 pagetables from swapper_pg_dirJoerg Roedel
This patch fixes machine crashes which occur when heavily exercising the CPU hotplug codepaths on a 32-bit kernel. These crashes are caused by AMD Erratum 383 and result in a fatal machine check exception. Here's the scenario: 1. On 32-bit, the swapper_pg_dir page table is used as the initial page table for booting a secondary CPU. 2. To make this work, swapper_pg_dir needs a direct mapping of physical memory in it (the low mappings). By adding those low, large page (2M) mappings (PAE kernel), we create the necessary conditions for Erratum 383 to occur. 3. Other CPUs which do not participate in the off- and onlining game may use swapper_pg_dir while the low mappings are present (when leave_mm is called). For all steps below, the CPU referred to is a CPU that is using swapper_pg_dir, and not the CPU which is being onlined. 4. The presence of the low mappings in swapper_pg_dir can result in TLB entries for addresses below __PAGE_OFFSET to be established speculatively. These TLB entries are marked global and large. 5. When the CPU with such TLB entry switches to another page table, this TLB entry remains because it is global. 6. The process then generates an access to an address covered by the above TLB entry but there is a permission mismatch - the TLB entry covers a large global page not accessible to userspace. 7. Due to this permission mismatch a new 4kb, user TLB entry gets established. Further, Erratum 383 provides for a small window of time where both TLB entries are present. This results in an uncorrectable machine check exception signalling a TLB multimatch which panics the machine. There are two ways to fix this issue: 1. Always do a global TLB flush when a new cr3 is loaded and the old page table was swapper_pg_dir. I consider this a hack hard to understand and with performance implications 2. Do not use swapper_pg_dir to boot secondary CPUs like 64-bit does. This patch implements solution 2. It introduces a trampoline_pg_dir which has the same layout as swapper_pg_dir with low_mappings. This page table is used as the initial page table of the booting CPU. Later in the bringup process, it switches to swapper_pg_dir and does a global TLB flush. This fixes the crashes in our test cases. -v2: switch to swapper_pg_dir right after entering start_secondary() so that we are able to access percpu data which might not be mapped in the trampoline page table.

2010-08-17Make do_execve() take a const filename pointerDavid Howells
Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles correctly on ARM: arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to. This is because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to copy_strings_kernel(). A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel(). do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as const should be fine. Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match. This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.

As noticed by Linus, it is critical that some of the rwsem constants be signed. Yet, hex constants are unsigned unless explicitly casted or negated. The most critical one is RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS.

2010-08-16sparc: Really fix "console=" for serial consoles.David S. Miller
If a video head and keyboard are hooked up, specifying "console=ttyS0" or similar to use a serial console will not work properly. The key issue is that we must register all serial console capable devices with register_console(), otherwise the command line specified device won't be found. The sun serial drivers would only register themselves as console devices if the OpenFirmware specified console device node matched. To fix this part we now unconditionally get the serial console register by setting serial_drv->cons always. Secondarily we must not add_preferred_console() using the firmware provided console setting if the user gaven an override on the kernel command line using "console=" The "primary framebuffer" matching logic was always triggering o n openfirmware device node match, make it not when a command line override was given.

2010-08-15ARM: 6329/1: wire up sys_accept4() on ARMMikael Pettersson
sys_accept4() was added in kernel 2.6.28, but ARM was not updated to include it. The number and types of parameters is such that no ARM-specific processing is needed, so wiring up sys_accept4() just requires defining __NR_accept4 and adding a direct call in the syscall entry table. Tested with an EABI 2.6.35 kernel and Ulrich Drepper's original accept4() test program, modified to define __NR_accept4 for ARM. Using the updated unistd.h also eliminates a warning then building glibc (2.10.2 and newer) about accept4() being unimplemented.
