2010-03-04padata: Allocate the cpumask for the padata instanceSteffen Klassert
The cpumask of the padata instance was used without allocated. This caused boot crashes if CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is enabled. This patch fixes this by doing proper allocation for this cpumask.

2010-03-03Prioritize synchronous signals over 'normal' signalsLinus Torvalds
This makes sure that we pick the synchronous signals caused by a processor fault over any pending regular asynchronous signals sent to use by [t]kill(). This is not strictly required semantics, but it makes it _much_ easier for programs like Wine that expect to find the fault information in the signal stack. Without this, if a non-synchronous signal gets picked first, the delayed asynchronous signal will have its signal context pointing to the new signal invocation, rather than the instruction that caused the SIGSEGV or SIGBUS in the first place. This is not all that pretty, and we're discussing making the synchronous signals more explicit rather than have these kinds of implicit preferences of SIGSEGV and friends. See for example http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15395 for some of the discussion. But in the meantime this is a simple and fairly straightforward work-around, and the whole if (x & Y) x &= Y; thing can be compiled into (and gcc does do it) just three instructions: movq %rdx, %rax andl $Y, %eax cmovne %rax, %rdx so it is at least a simple solution to a subtle issue.

2010-03-01early_res: Need to save the allocation name in drop_range_partial()Yinghai Lu
During free_early_partial(), reserve_early_without_check() could end extending the early_res area from __check_and_double_early_res(); as a result, the location of the name for the current reservation could change. Therefore, we need to save a local copy of the name.

Very useful ! > ACPI: DSDT 00000000cffa3900 036CE (v01 IBM SERLEWIS 00001000 INTL 20060912) ACPI is trying to map DSDT at cffa3900, which results in a check vs. cffa3000 which is the relevant page boundary. The generic is_ram check correctly identifies that as RAM because it's in the usable resource area. The old e820 based is_ram check does not take overlapping resource areas into account. That's why it works.

This patch disables irqs across the call to rcu_needs_cpu(). It also enforces a hold-off period so that the idle loop doesn't softirq itself to death when there are lots of RCU callbacks in flight on the last non-dynticked CPU. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

It is invalid to invoke __rcu_process_callbacks() with irqs disabled, so do it indirectly via raise_softirq(). This requires a state-machine implementation to cycle through the grace-period machinery the required number of times. Located-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2010-02-26ftrace: Add function names to dangling } in function graph tracerSteven Rostedt
The function graph tracer is currently the most invasive tracer in the ftrace family. It can easily overflow the buffer even with 10megs per CPU. This means that events can often be lost. On start up, or after events are lost, if the function return is recorded but the function enter was lost, all we get to see is the exiting '}'. Here is how a typical trace output starts: [tracing] cat trace # tracer: function_graph # # CPU DURATION FUNCTION CALLS # | | | | | | | 0) + 91.897 us | } 0) ! 567.961 us | } 0) <========== | 0) ! 579.083 us | _raw_spin_lock_irqsave(); 0) 4.694 us | _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(); 0) ! 594.862 us | } 0) ! 603.361 us | } 0) ! 613.574 us | } 0) ! 623.554 us | } 0) 3.653 us | fget_light(); 0) | sock_poll() { There are a series of '}' with no matching "func() {". There's no information to what functions these ending brackets belong to. This patch adds a stack on the per cpu structure used in outputting the function graph tracer to keep track of what function was outputted. Then on a function exit event, it checks the depth to see if the function exit has a matching entry event. If it does, then it only prints the '}', otherwise it adds the function name after the '}'. This allows function exit events to show what function they belong to at trace output startup, when the entry was lost due to ring buffer overflow, or even after a new task is scheduled in. Here is what the above trace will look like after this patch: [tracing] cat trace # tracer: function_graph # # CPU DURATION FUNCTION CALLS # | | | | | | | 0) + 91.897 us | } (irq_exit) 0) ! 567.961 us | } (smp_apic_timer_interrupt) 0) <========== | 0) ! 579.083 us | _raw_spin_lock_irqsave(); 0) 4.694 us | _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(); 0) ! 594.862 us | } (add_wait_queue) 0) ! 603.361 us | } (__pollwait) 0) ! 613.574 us | } (tcp_poll) 0) ! 623.554 us | } (sock_poll) 0) 3.653 us | fget_light(); 0) | sock_poll() { Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2010-02-26PM / Hibernate: Fix preallocating of memoryRafael J. Wysocki
The hibernate memory preallocation code allocates memory to push some user space data out of physical RAM, so that the hibernation image is not too large. It allocates more memory than necessary for creating the image, so it has to release some pages to make room for allocations made while suspending devices and disabling nonboot CPUs, or the system will hang due to the lack of free pages to allocate from. Unfortunately, the function used for freeing these pages, free_unnecessary_pages(), contains a bug that prevents it from doing the job on all systems without highmem. Fix this problem, which is a regression from the 2.6.30 kernel, by using the right condition for the termination of the loop in free_unnecessary_pages(). Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
