2012-04-05Merge branch 'akpm' (Andrew's patch-bomb)Linus Torvalds
Merge batch of fixes from Andrew Morton: "The simple_open() cleanup was held back while I wanted for laggards to merge things. I still need to send a few checkpoint/restore patches. I've been wobbly about merging them because I'm wobbly about the overall prospects for success of the project. But after speaking with Pavel at the LSF conference, it sounds like they're further toward completion than I feared - apparently davem is at the "has stopped complaining" stage regarding the net changes. So I need to go back and re-review those patchs and their (lengthy) discussion." * emailed from Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>: (16 patches) memcg swap: use mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap fix backlight: add driver for DA9052/53 PMIC v1 C6X: use set_current_blocked() and block_sigmask() MAINTAINERS: add entry for sparse checker MAINTAINERS: fix REMOTEPROC F: typo alpha: use set_current_blocked() and block_sigmask() simple_open: automatically convert to simple_open() scripts/coccinelle/api/simple_open.cocci: semantic patch for simple_open() libfs: add simple_open() hugetlbfs: remove unregister_filesystem() when initializing module drivers/rtc/rtc-88pm860x.c: fix rtc irq enable callback fs/xattr.c:setxattr(): improve handling of allocation failures fs/xattr.c:listxattr(): fall back to vmalloc() if kmalloc() failed fs/xattr.c: suppress page allocation failure warnings from sys_listxattr() sysrq: use SEND_SIG_FORCED instead of force_sig() proc: fix mount -t proc -o AAA
2012-04-05simple_open: automatically convert to simple_open()Stephen Boyd
Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when they want to support a custom read/write function op. This leads to a proliferation of the default_open() implementation across the entire tree. Now that the common implementation has been consolidated into libfs we can replace all the users of this function with simple_open(). This replacement was done with the following semantic patch: <smpl> @ open @ identifier open_f != simple_open; identifier i, f; @@ -int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) -{ ( -if (i->i_private) -f->private_data = i->i_private; | -f->private_data = i->i_private; ) -return 0; -} @ has_open depends on open @ identifier fops; identifier open.open_f; @@ struct file_operations fops = { ... -.open = open_f, +.open = simple_open, ... }; </smpl> [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2012-03-29x86,kgdb: Fix DEBUG_RODATA limitation using text_poke()Jason Wessel
There has long been a limitation using software breakpoints with a kernel compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA going back to 2.6.26. For this particular patch, it will apply cleanly and has been tested all the way back to 2.6.36. The kprobes code uses the text_poke() function which accommodates writing a breakpoint into a read-only page. The x86 kgdb code can solve the problem similarly by overriding the default breakpoint set/remove routines and using text_poke() directly. The x86 kgdb code will first attempt to use the traditional probe_kernel_write(), and next try using a the text_poke() function. The break point install method is tracked such that the correct break point removal routine will get called later on.

2012-03-29kgdbts: (2 of 2) fix single step awareness to work correctly with SMPJason Wessel
The do_fork and sys_open tests have never worked properly on anything other than a UP configuration with the kgdb test suite. This is because the test suite did not fully implement the behavior of a real debugger. A real debugger tracks the state of what thread it asked to single step and can correctly continue other threads of execution or conditionally stop while waiting for the original thread single step request to return. Below is a simple method to cause a fatal kernel oops with the kgdb test suite on a 2 processor ARM system: while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done& while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done& echo V1I1F100 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts Very soon after starting the test the kernel will start warning with messages like: kgdbts: BP mismatch c002487c expected c0024878 ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at drivers/misc/kgdbts.c:317 check_and_rewind_pc+0x9c/0xc4() [<c01f6520>] (check_and_rewind_pc+0x9c/0xc4) [<c01f595c>] (validate_simple_test+0x3c/0xc4) [<c01f60d4>] (run_simple_test+0x1e8/0x274) The kernel will eventually recovers, but the test suite has completely failed to test anything useful. This patch implements behavior similar to a real debugger that does not rely on hardware single stepping by using only software planted breakpoints. In order to mimic a real debugger, the kgdb test suite now tracks the most recent thread that was continued (cont_thread_id), with the intent to single step just this thread. When the response to the single step request stops in a different thread that hit the original break point that thread will now get continued, while the debugger waits for the thread with the single step pending. Here is a high level description of the sequence of events. cont_instead_of_sstep = 0; 1) set breakpoint at do_fork 2) continue 3) Save the thread id where we stop to cont_thread_id 4) Remove breakpoint at do_fork 5) Reset the PC if needed depending on kernel exception type 6) soft single step 7) Check where we stopped if current thread != cont_thread_id { if (here for more than 2 times for the same thead) { ### must be a really busy system, start test again ### goto step 1 } goto step 5 } else { cont_instead_of_sstep = 0; } 8) clean up and run test again if needed 9) Clear out any threads that were waiting on a break point at the point in time the test is ended with get_cont_catch(). This happens sometimes because breakpoints are used in place of single stepping and some threads could have been in the debugger exception handling queue because breakpoints were hit concurrently on different CPUs. This also means we wait at least one second before unplumbing the debugger connection at the very end, so as respond to any debug threads waiting to be serviced.

A real debugger tracks the state of what thread it asked to single step and can correctly continue other threads of execution or conditionally stop while waiting for the original thread single step request to return. Below is a simple method to cause a fatal kernel oops with the kgdb test suite on a 4 processor x86 system: while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done& while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done& while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done& while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done& echo V1I1F1000 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts Very soon after starting the test the kernel will oops with a message like: kgdbts: BP mismatch 3b7da66480 expected ffffffff8106a590 WARNING: at drivers/misc/kgdbts.c:303 check_and_rewind_pc+0xe0/0x100() Call Trace: [<ffffffff812994a0>] check_and_rewind_pc+0xe0/0x100 [<ffffffff81298945>] validate_simple_test+0x25/0xc0 [<ffffffff81298f77>] run_simple_test+0x107/0x2c0 [<ffffffff81298a18>] kgdbts_put_char+0x18/0x20 The warn will turn to a hard kernel crash shortly after that because the pc will not get properly rewound to the right value after hitting a breakpoint leading to a hard lockup. This change is broken up into 2 pieces because archs that have hw single stepping (2.6.26 and up) need different changes than archs that do not have hw single stepping (3.0 and up). This change implements the correct behavior for an arch that supports hw single stepping. A minor defect was fixed where sys_open should be do_sys_open for the sys_open break point test. This solves the problem of running a 64 bit with a 32 bit user space. The sys_open() never gets called when using the 32 bit file system for the kgdb testsuite because the 32 bit binaries invoke the compat_sys_open() call leading to the test never completing. In order to mimic a real debugger, the kgdb test suite now tracks the most recent thread that was continued (cont_thread_id), with the intent to single step just this thread. When the response to the single step request stops in a different thread that hit the original break point that thread will now get continued, while the debugger waits for the thread with the single step pending.

2012-03-29kgdbts: Fix kernel oops with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATAJason Wessel
On x86 the kgdb test suite will oops when the kernel is compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and you run the tests after boot time. This is regression has existed since 2.6.26 by commit: b33cb815 (kgdbts: Use HW breakpoints with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA). The test suite can use hw breakpoints for all the tests, but it has to execute the hardware breakpoint specific tests first in order to determine that the hw breakpoints actually work. Specifically the very first test causes an oops: # echo V1I1 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts kgdb: Registered I/O driver kgdbts. kgdbts:RUN plant and detach test Entering kdb (current=0xffff880017aa9320, pid 1078) on processor 0 due to Keyboard Entry [0]kdb> kgdbts: ERROR PUT: end of test buffer on 'plant_and_detach_test' line 1 expected OK got $E14#aa WARNING: at drivers/misc/kgdbts.c:730 run_simple_test+0x151/0x2c0() [...oops clipped...] This commit re-orders the running of the tests and puts the RODATA check into its own function so as to correctly avoid the kernel oops by detecting and using the hw breakpoints.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-asm_system Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells: "Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion dependencies. I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can and made sure that they don't break. The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2(). This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h. The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg. memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()). These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces: (1) asm/barrier.h Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha. (2) asm/switch_to.h Move switch_to() and related stuff here. (3) asm/exec.h Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h. (4) asm/cmpxchg.h Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg(). (5) asm/bug.h Move die() and related bits. (6) asm/auxvec.h Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here. Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis." Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat weakened by that.

It is going to be a bit more nasty than usual as in touching things outside of arch/powerpc mostly due to the big iSeriesectomy :-) We finally got rid of the bugger (legacy iSeries support) which was a PITA to maintain and that nobody really used anymore. Here are some of the highlights: - Legacy iSeries is gone. Thanks Stephen ! There's still some bits and pieces remaining if you do a grep -ir series arch/powerpc but they are harmless and will be removed in the next few weeks hopefully. - The 'fadump' functionality (Firmware Assisted Dump) replaces the previous (equivalent) "pHyp assisted dump"... it's a rewrite of a mechanism to get the hypervisor to do crash dumps on pSeries, the new implementation hopefully being much more reliable. Thanks Mahesh Salgaonkar. - The "EEH" code (pSeries PCI error handling & recovery) got a big spring cleaning, motivated by the need to be able to implement a new backend for it on top of some new different type of firwmare. The work isn't complete yet, but a good chunk of the cleanups is there. Note that this adds a field to struct device_node which is not very nice and which Grant objects to. I will have a patch soon that moves that to a powerpc private data structure (hopefully before rc1) and we'll improve things further later on (hopefully getting rid of the need for that pointer completely).

2012-03-01ARM: at91/tc: add device tree support to atmel_tclibNicolas Ferre
Device tree support added to atmel_tclib: the generic Timer Counter library. This is used by the clocksource/clockevent driver tcb_clksrc. The current DT enabled platforms are also modified to use it: - .dtsi files are modified to add Timer Counter Block entries - alias are created to allow identification of each block - clkdev lookup tables are added for clocks identification.

2012-02-27carma-fpga: fix race between data dumping and DMA callbackIra Snyder
When the system is under heavy load, we occasionally saw a problem where the system would get a legitimate interrupt when they should be disabled. This was caused by the data_dma_cb() DMA callback unconditionally re-enabling FPGA interrupts even when data dumping is disabled. When data dumping was re-enabled, the irq handler would fire while a DMA was in progress. The "BUG_ON(priv->inflight != NULL);" during the second invocation of the DMA callback caused the system to crash. To fix the issue, the priv->enabled boolean is moved under the protection of the priv->lock spinlock. The DMA callback checks the boolean to know whether to re-enable FPGA interrupts before it returns. Now that it is fixed, the driver keeps FPGA interrupts disabled when it expects that they are disabled, fixing the bug. Signed-off-by: Ira W.
