2009-05-25async: make sure independent async domains can't accidentally entangleJames Bottomley1-8/+12
The problem occurs when async_synchronize_full_domain() is called when the async_pending list is not empty. This will cause lowest_running() to return the cookie of the first entry on the async_pending list, which might be nothing at all to do with the domain being asked for and thus cause the domain synchronization to wait for an unrelated domain. This can cause a deadlock if domain synchronization is used from one domain to wait for another. Fix by running over the async_pending list to see if any pending items actually belong to our domain (and return their cookies if they do).

2009-05-24PM: Do not hold dpm_list_mtx while disabling/enabling nonboot CPUsRafael J. Wysocki3-26/+4
We shouldn't hold dpm_list_mtx while executing [disable|enable]_nonboot_cpus(), because theoretically this may lead to a deadlock as shown by the following example (provided by Johannes Berg): CPU 3 CPU 2 CPU 1 suspend/hibernate something: rtnl_lock() device_pm_lock() -> mutex_lock(&dpm_list_mtx) mutex_lock(&dpm_list_mtx) linkwatch_work -> rtnl_lock() disable_nonboot_cpus() -> flush CPU 3 workqueue Fortunately, device drivers are supposed to stop any activities that might lead to the registration of new device objects way before disable_nonboot_cpus() is called, so it shouldn't be necessary to hold dpm_list_mtx over the entire late part of device suspend and early part of device resume. Thus, during the late suspend and the early resume of devices acquire dpm_list_mtx only when dpm_list is going to be traversed and release it right after that.

2009-05-23sparseirq: Allow early irq_desc allocationPaul Mundt1-4/+14
Presently non-legacy IRQs have their irq_desc allocated with kzalloc_node(). This assumes that all callers of irq_to_desc_node_alloc() will be sufficiently late in the boot process that kmalloc is available. While porting sparseirq support to sh this blew up immediately, as at the time that we register the CPU's interrupt vector map only bootmem is available. Check slab_is_available() to work out which path to use.

2009-05-20futex: setup writeable mapping for futex ops which modify user space dataThomas Gleixner1-11/+13
The futex code installs a read only mapping via get_user_pages_fast() even if the futex op function has to modify user space data. The eventual fault was fixed up by futex_handle_fault() which walked the VMA with mmap_sem held. After the cleanup patches which removed the mmap_sem dependency of the futex code commit 4dc5b7a36a49eff97050894cf1b3a9a02523717 (futex: clean up fault logic) removed the private VMA walk logic from the futex code. This change results in a stale RO mapping which is not fixed up. Instead of reintroducing the previous fault logic we set up the mapping in get_user_pages_fast() read/write for all operations which modify user space data. Also handle private futexes in the same way and make the current unconditional access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE) depend on the futex op.

2009-05-17Fix caller information for warn_slowpath_nullLinus Torvalds1-15/+20
Ian Campbell noticed that since "Eliminate thousands of warnings with gcc 3.2 build" (commit 57adc4d2dbf968fdbe516359688094eef4d46581) all WARN_ON()'s currently appear to come from warn_slowpath_null(), eg: WARNING: at kernel/softirq.c:143 warn_slowpath_null+0x1c/0x20() because now that warn_slowpath_null() is in the call path, the __builtin_return_address(0) returns that, rather than the place that caused the warning. Fix this by splitting up the warn_slowpath_null/fmt cases differently, using a common helper function, and getting the return address in the right place. This also happens to avoid the unnecessary stack usage for the non-stdargs case, and just generally cleans things up. Make the function name printout use %pS while at it.

2009-05-15sysrq, intel_fb: fix sysrq g collisionJason Wessel1-2/+2
Commit 79e539453b34e35f39299a899d263b0a1f1670bd introduced a regression where you cannot use sysrq 'g' to enter kgdb. The solution is to move the intel fb sysrq over to V for video instead of G for graphics. The SMP VOYAGER code to register for the sysrq-v is not anywhere to be found in the mainline kernel, so the comments in the code were cleaned up as well. This patch also cleans up the sysrq definitions for kgdb to make it generic for the kernel debugger, such that the sysrq 'g' can be used in the future to enter a gdbstub or another kernel debugger.

2009-05-15Revert "mm: add /proc controls for pdflush threads"Jens Axboe1-23/+0
This reverts commit fafd688e4c0c34da0f3de909881117d374e4c7af. Work is progressing to switch away from pdflush as the process backing for flushing out dirty data. So it seems pointless to add more knobs to control pdflush threads. The original author of the patch did not have any specific use cases for adding the knobs, so we can easily revert this before 2.6.30 to avoid having to maintain this API forever.

2009-05-07inotify: use GFP_NOFS in kernel_event() to work around a lockdep false-positiveWu Fengguang1-2/+2
There is what we believe to be a false positive reported by lockdep. inotify_inode_queue_event() => take inotify_mutex => kernel_event() => kmalloc() => SLOB => alloc_pages_node() => page reclaim => slab reclaim => dcache reclaim => inotify_inode_is_dead => take inotify_mutex => deadlock The plan is to fix this via lockdep annotation, but that is proving to be quite involved. The patch flips the allocation over to GFP_NFS to shut the warning up, for the 2.6.30 release. Hopefully we will fix this for real in 2.6.31.

2009-05-02clockevents: prevent endless loop in tick_handle_periodic()john stultz1-1/+11
tick_handle_periodic() can lock up hard when a one shot clock event device is used in combination with jiffies clocksource. Avoid an endless loop issue by requiring that a highres valid clocksource be installed before we call tick_periodic() in a loop when using ONESHOT mode. The result is we will only increment jiffies once per interrupt until a continuous hardware clocksource is available. Without this, we can run into a endless loop, where each cycle through the loop, jiffies is updated which increments time by tick_period or more (due to clock steering), which can cause the event programming to think the next event was before the newly incremented time and fail causing tick_periodic() to be called again and the whole process loops forever.

2009-05-01Revert "genirq: assert that irq handlers are indeed running in hardirq context"Thomas Gleixner1-2/+0
This reverts commit 044d408409cc4e1bc75c886e27ca85c270db104c. The commit added a warning when handle_IRQ_event() is called outside of hard interrupt context. This breaks the generic tasklet based interrupt resend mechanism which is used when the hardware has no way to retrigger the interrupt. So we get a warning for a use case which is correct and worked for years. Remove it. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

2009-04-29sched: account system time properlyEric Dumazet1-1/+1
Andrew Gallatin reported that IRQ and SOFTIRQ times were sometime not reported correctly on recent kernels, and even bisected to commit 457533a7d3402d1d91fbc125c8bd1bd16dcd3cd4 ([PATCH] fix scaled & unscaled cputime accounting) as the first bad commit. Further analysis pointed that commit 79741dd35713ff4f6fd0eafd59fa94e8a4ba922d ([PATCH] idle cputime accounting) was the real cause of the problem. account_process_tick() was not taking into account timer IRQ interrupting the idle task servicing a hard or soft irq. On mostly idle cpu, irqs were thus not accounted and top or mpstat could tell user/admin that cpu was 100 % idle, 0.00 % irq, 0.00 % softirq, while it was not.

2009-04-28irq: only update affinity if ->set_affinity() is sucessfullYinghai Lu3-11/+23
irq_set_affinity() and move_masked_irq() try to assign affinity before calling chip set_affinity(). Some archs are assigning it in ->set_affinity() again. We do something like: cpumask_cpy(desc->affinity, mask); desc->chip->set_affinity(mask); But in the failure path, affinity should not be touched - otherwise we'll end up with a different affinity mask despite the failure to migrate the IRQ. So try to update the afffinity only if set_affinity returns with 0. Also call irq_set_thread_affinity accordingly. v2: update after "irq, x86: Remove IRQ_DISABLED check in process context IRQ move" v3: according to Ingo, change set_affinity() in irq_chip should return int. v4: update comments by removing moving irq_desc code.

2009-04-25PM/Hibernate: Fix waiting for image device to appear on resumeRafael J. Wysocki1-24/+27
Commit c751085943362143f84346d274e0011419c84202 ("PM/Hibernate: Wait for SCSI devices scan to complete during resume") added a call to scsi_complete_async_scans() to software_resume(), so that it waited for the SCSI scanning to complete, but the call was added at a wrong place. Namely, it should have been added after wait_for_device_probe(), which is called only if the image partition hasn't been specified yet. Also, it's reasonable to check if the image partition is present and only wait for the device probing and SCSI scanning to complete if it is not the case. Additionally, since noresume is checked right at the beginning of software_resume() and the function returns immediately if it's set, it doesn't make sense to check it once again later.
