In commit 160c1d8e40866edfeae7d68816b7005d70acf391,
dma_ops->dma_supported = iommu_dma_supported;

This dma_ops->dma_supported is first called in platform_dma_init() during kernel
boot. Then dma_ops->dma_supported will be called recursively in
iommu_dma_supported.

Kernel can not boot because kernel can not get out of iommu_dma_supported until

15 years agopty: fix data loss when stopped (^S/^Q)
Linus Torvalds [Mon, 10 Aug 2009 20:21:19 +0000 (13:21 -0700)]
pty: fix data loss when stopped (^S/^Q)

Commit d945cb9cc ("pty: Rework the pty layer to use the normal buffering
logic") dropped the test for 'tty->stopped' in pty_write_room(), which
then causes the n_tty line discipline thing to not throttle the data
properly when the tty is stopped.

So instead of pausing the write due to the tty being stopped, the ldisc
layer would go ahead and push it down to the pty.  The pty write()
routine would then refuse to take the data (because it _did_ check
'stopped'), and the data wouldn't actually be written.

This whole stopped test should eventually be moved into the tty ldisc
layer rather than have low-level tty drivers care about these things,
but right now the fix is to just re-instate the missing pty 'stopped'
handling.

15 years agox86: Fix serialization in pit_expect_msb()
Linus Torvalds [Fri, 31 Jul 2009 19:45:41 +0000 (12:45 -0700)]
x86: Fix serialization in pit_expect_msb()

Wei Chong Tan reported a fast-PIT-calibration corner-case:

| pit_expect_msb() is vulnerable to SMI disturbance corner case
| in some platforms which causes /proc/cpuinfo to show wrong
| CPU MHz value when quick_pit_calibrate() jumps to success
| section.

I think that the real issue isn't even an SMI - but the fact
that in the very last iteration of the loop, there's no
serializing instruction _after_ the last 'rdtsc'. So even in
the absense of SMI's, we do have a situation where the cycle
counter was read without proper serialization.

The last check should be done outside the outer loop, since
_inside_ the outer loop, we'll be testing that the PIT has
the right MSB value has the right value in the next iteration.

So only the _last_ iteration is special, because that's the one
that will not check the PIT MSB value any more, and because the
final 'get_cycles()' isn't serialized.

In other words:

 - I'd like to move the PIT MSB check to after the last
   iteration, rather than in every iteration

 - I think we should comment on the fact that it's also a
   serializing instruction and so 'fences in' the TSC read.

Here's a suggested replacement.

perf tools: callchain: Fix bad rounding of minimum rate

Sometimes we get callchain branches that have a rate under the
limit given by the user.

Say you launched:

 perf record -f -g -a ./hackbench 10
 perf report -g fractal,10.0

And you got:

2.33%       hackbench  [kernel]                  [k] _spin_lock_irqsave
                |
                |--78.57%-- remove_wait_queue

                |          up_read

                |          page_fault
                |          0xf7ffa430
                |          0xa0df710000000a
                ...

It is abnormal to get a 7.14% branch whereas we passed a 10%
filter.

The problem is that we round down the minimum threshold. This
happens mostly when we have very low number of events. If the
total amount of your branch is 4 and you have a subranch of 3
events, filtering to 90% will be computed like follows:

  limit = 4 * 0.9;

The result is about 3.6, but the cast to integer will round
down to 3. It means that our filter is actually of 75%

We must then explicitly round up the minimum threshold.

perf_counter: Fix/complete ftrace event records sampling

This patch implements the kernel side support for ftrace event
record sampling.

A new counter sampling attribute is added:

   PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD

which requests ftrace events record sampling. In this case
if a PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT counter is active and a tracepoint
fires, we emit the tracepoint binary record to the
perfcounter event buffer, as a sample.

Result, after setting PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD attribute from perf
record:

 perf record -f -F 1 -a -e workqueue:workqueue_execution
 perf report -D

 0x21e18 [0x48]: event: 9

.
0x21e18 [0x48]: PERF_EVENT_SAMPLE (IP, 1): 10: 0xffffffff8100c7d0 period: 33

The raw ftrace binary record starts at offset 0020.

Translation:

 struct trace_entry {
type = 0x2b = 43;
flags = 1;
preempt_count = 2;
pid = 0xa = 10;
tgid = 0xa = 10;
 }

 thread_comm = "events/1"
 thread_pid  = 0xa = 10;
 func     = 0xffffffff8131b1e0 = flush_to_ldisc()

What will come next?

 - Userspace support ('perf trace'), 'flight data recorder' mode
   for perf trace, etc.

 - The unconditional copy from the profiling callback brings
   some costs however if someone wants no such sampling to
   occur, and needs to be fixed in the future. For that we need
   to have an instant access to the perf counter attribute.
   This is a matter of a flag to add in the struct ftrace_event.

 - Take care of the events recursivity! Don't ever try to record
   a lock event for example, it seems some locking is used in
   the profiling fast path and lead to a tracing recursivity.
   That will be fixed using raw spinlock or recursivity
   protection.

 - [...]

 - Profit! :-)

duplicate modes by comparing them using drm_mode_equal. That function
doesn't consider the type bits, which means that any modes which differ only
in the type field will be lost.

One of the bits in the mode->type field is the DRM_MODE_TYPE_PREFERRED bit.
If the mode with that bit is lost, then higher level code will not know

This patch (as1273) fixes two(!) bugs introduced by the new
Clear-TT-Buffer implementation in ehci-hcd.

It is now possible for an idle QH to have some URBs on its
queue -- this will happen if a Clear-TT-Buffer is pending for
the QH's endpoint.  Consequently we should not issue a warning
when someone tries to unlink an URB from an idle QH; instead
we should process the request immediately.

The refcounts for QHs could get messed up, because
submit_async() would increment the refcount when calling
qh_link_async() and qh_link_async() would then refuse to link
the QH into the schedule if a Clear-TT-Buffer was pending.
Instead we should increment the refcount only when the QH
actually is added to the schedule.  The current code tries to
be clever by leaving the refcount alone if an unlink is
immediately followed by a relink; the patch changes this to an
unconditional decrement and increment (although they occur in
the opposite order).

Btrfs: fix balancing oops when invalidate_inode_pages2 returns EBUSY

invalidate_inode_pages2_range may return -EBUSY occasionally
which results Oops. This patch fixes the issue by moving
invalidate_inode_pages2_range into a loop and keeping calling
it until the return value is not -EBUSY.

The EBUSY return is temporary, and can happen when the btrfs release page
function is unable to release a page because the EXTENT_LOCK
bit is set.

15 years agobzip2/lzma: remove nasty uncompressed size hack in pre-boot environment
Phillip Lougher [Thu, 6 Aug 2009 22:09:31 +0000 (15:09 -0700)]
bzip2/lzma: remove nasty uncompressed size hack in pre-boot environment

decompress_bunzip2 and decompress_unlzma have a nasty hack that subtracts
4 from the input length if being called in the pre-boot environment.

This is a nasty hack because it relies on the fact that flush = NULL only
when called from the pre-boot environment (i.e.
arch/x86/boot/compressed/misc.c).  initramfs.c/do_mounts_rd.c pass in a
flush buffer (flush != NULL).

This hack prevents the decompressors from being used with flush = NULL by
other callers unless knowledge of the hack is propagated to them.

This patch removes the hack by making decompress (called only from the
pre-boot environment) a wrapper function that subtracts 4 from the input
length before calling the decompressor.
