tracing/core: make the read callbacks reentrants

Now that several per-cpu files can be read or spliced at the
same, we want the read/splice callbacks for tracing files to be
reentrants.

Until now, a single global mutex (trace_types_lock) serialized
the access to tracing_read_pipe(), tracing_splice_read_pipe(),
and the seq helpers.

Ie: it means that if a user tries to read trace_pipe0 and
trace_pipe1 at the same time, the access to the function
tracing_read_pipe() is contended and one reader must wait for
the other to finish its read call.

The trace_type_lock mutex is mostly here to serialize the access
to the global current tracer (current_trace), which can be
changed concurrently. Although the iter struct keeps a private
pointer to this tracer, its callbacks can be changed by another
function.

The method used here is to not keep anymore private reference to
the tracer inside the iterator but to make a copy of it inside
the iterator. Then it checks on subsequents read calls if the
tracer has changed. This is not costly because the current
tracer is not expected to be changed often, so we use a branch
prediction for that.

Moreover, we add a private mutex to the iterator (there is one
iterator per file descriptor) to serialize the accesses in case
of multiple consumers per file descriptor (which would be a
silly idea from the user). Note that this is not to protect the
ring buffer, since the ring buffer already serializes the
readers accesses. This is to prevent from traces weirdness in
case of concurrent consumers. But these mutexes can be dropped
anyway, that would not result in any crash. Just tell me what
you think about it.

15 years agotracing/core: introduce per cpu tracing files
Frederic Weisbecker [Wed, 25 Feb 2009 02:22:28 +0000 (03:22 +0100)]
tracing/core: introduce per cpu tracing files

Impact: split up tracing output per cpu

Currently, on the tracing debugfs directory, three files are
available to the user to let him extracting the trace output:

- trace is an iterator through the ring-buffer. It's a reader
  but not a consumer It doesn't block when no more traces are
  available.

- trace pretty similar to the former, except that it adds more
  informations such as prempt count, irq flag, ...

- trace_pipe is a reader and a consumer, it will also block
  waiting for traces if necessary (heh, yes it's a pipe).

The traces coming from different cpus are curretly mixed up
inside these files. Sometimes it messes up the informations,
sometimes it's useful, depending on what does the tracer
capture.

The tracing_cpumask file is useful to filter the output and
select only the traces captured a custom defined set of cpus.
But still it is not enough powerful to extract at the same time
one trace buffer per cpu.

So this patch creates a new directory: /debug/tracing/per_cpu/.

Inside this directory, you will now find one trace_pipe file and
one trace file per cpu.

Which means if you have two cpus, you will have:

 trace0
 trace1
 trace_pipe0
 trace_pipe1

And of course, reading these files will have the same effect
than with the usual tracing files, except that you will only see
the traces from the given cpu.

The original all-in-one cpu trace file are still available on
their original place.

Until now, only one consumer was allowed on trace_pipe to avoid
racy consuming on the ring-buffer. Now the approach changed a
bit, you can have only one consumer per cpu.

Which means you are allowed to read concurrently trace_pipe0 and
trace_pipe1 But you can't have two readers on trace_pipe0 or
trace_pipe1.

Following the same logic, if there is one reader on the common
trace_pipe, you can not have at the same time another reader on
trace_pipe0 or in trace_pipe1. Because in trace_pipe is already
a consumer in all cpu buffers in essence.

modifying code running in NMI context on another CPU. The modifying
is done through stop_machine, so only NMIs must be considered.

But if the write causes the page fault handler to produce a warning,
the print can slow it down enough that as soon as it is done
it will take another NMI before going back to the process context.
The new NMI will perform the write again causing another print and
this will hang the box.

This patch turns off the writing as soon as a failure is detected

ftrace, x86: make kernel text writable only for conversions

Impact: keep kernel text read only

Because dynamic ftrace converts the calls to mcount into and out of
nops at run time, we needed to always keep the kernel text writable.

But this defeats the point of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA. This patch converts
the kernel code to writable before ftrace modifies the text, and converts
it back to read only afterward.

The kernel text is converted to read/write, stop_machine is called to
modify the code, then the kernel text is converted back to read only.

The original version used SYSTEM_STATE to determine when it was OK
or not to change the code to rw or ro. Andrew Morton pointed out that
using SYSTEM_STATE is a bad idea since there is no guarantee to what
its state will actually be.

Instead, I moved the check into the set_kernel_text_* functions
themselves, and use a local variable to determine when it is
OK to change the kernel text RW permissions.

x86: use the right protections for split-up pagetables

Steven Rostedt found a bug in where in his modified kernel
ftrace was unable to modify the kernel text, due to the PMD
itself having been marked read-only as well in
split_large_page().

The fix, suggested by Linus, is to not try to 'clone' the
reference protection of a huge-page, but to use the standard
(and permissive) page protection bits of KERNPG_TABLE.

The 'cloning' makes sense for the ptes but it's a confused and
incorrect concept at the page table level - because the
pagetable entry is a set of all ptes and hence cannot
'clone' any single protection attribute - the ptes can be any
mixture of protections.

With the permissive KERNPG_TABLE, even if the pte protections
get changed after this point (due to ftrace doing code-patching
or other similar activities like kprobes), the resulting combined
protections will still be correct and the pte's restrictive
(or permissive) protections will control it.

Also update the comment.

This bug was there for a long time but has not caused visible
problems before as it needs a rather large read-only area to
trigger. Steve possibly hacked his kernel with some really
large arrays or so. Anyway, the bug is definitely worth fixing.

[ Huang Ying also experienced problems in this area when writing
  the EFI code, but the real bug in split_large_page() was not
  realized back then. ]

sound: virtuoso: revert "do not overwrite EEPROM on Xonar D2/D2X"

This reverts commit 7e86c0e6850504ec9516b953f316a47277825e33 ("do not
overwrite EEPROM on Xonar D2/D2X") because it did not actually help with
the problem.

More user reports show that the overwriting of the EEPROM is not
triggered by using this driver but by installing Linux, and that the
installation of any other operating system (even one without any CMI8788
driver) has the same effect.  In other words, the presence of this
driver does not have any effect on the occurrence of the error.  (So
far, the available evidence seems to point to a BIOS bug.)

Furthermore, it turns out that the EEPROM chip is protected against
stray write commands by the command format and by requiring a separate
write-enable command, so the error scenario in the previous commit (that
SPI writes can be misinterpreted as an EEPROM write command) is not even
theoretically possible.

The mixer control that was removed as a consequence of the previous
commit can only be partially emulated in userspace, which also means it
cannot be seen be the in-kernel OSS API emulation, so it is better to
revert that change.

If one of the tracers are broken and is constantly filling the ring
buffer while the test of the ring buffer is running, it will hang

stop till the ring buffer is empty. But if the tracer is broken and
is constantly producing input to the buffer, this test will never
end. The result is a lockup of the box.

This happened when KALLSYMS was not defined and the dynamic ftrace
test constantly filled the ring buffer, because the filter failed
and all functions were being traced. Something was being called

The DRM subsection is broken because one option is put outside the choice

15 years agofloppy: request and release only the ports we actually use
Philippe De Muyter [Wed, 18 Feb 2009 22:48:36 +0000 (14:48 -0800)]
floppy: request and release only the ports we actually use

The floppy driver requests an I/O port it doesn't need, and sometimes this
causes a conflict with a motherboard device reported by PNPBIOS.

This patch makes the floppy driver request and release only the ports it
actually uses.  It also factors out the request/release stuff and the
io-ports list so they're all in one place now.

The current floppy driver uses only these ports:

    0x3f2 (FD_DOR)
    0x3f4 (FD_STATUS)
    0x3f5 (FD_DATA)
    0x3f7 (FD_DCR/FD_DIR)

but it requests 0x3f2-0x3f5 and 0x3f7, which includes the unused port
0x3f3.

Some BIOSes report 0x3f3 as a motherboard resource.  The PNP system driver
reserves that, which causes a conflict when the floppy driver requests
0x3f2-0x3f5 later.

Philippe reported that this conflict broke the floppy driver between
2.6.11 and 2.6.22.  His PNPBIOS reports these devices:

    $ cat 00:07/id 00:07/resources # motherboard device
    PNP0c02
    state = active
    io 0x80-0x80

mm: clean up for early_pfn_to_nid()

What's happening is that the assertion in mm/page_alloc.c:move_freepages()
is triggering:

BUG_ON(page_zone(start_page) != page_zone(end_page));

Once I knew this is what was happening, I added some annotations:

if (unlikely(page_zone(start_page) != page_zone(end_page))) {
printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: Bogus zones: "
       "start_page[%p] end_page[%p] zone[%p]\n",
       start_page, end_page, zone);
printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: "
       "start_zone[%p] end_zone[%p]\n",
       page_zone(start_page), page_zone(end_page));
printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: "
       "start_pfn[0x%lx] end_pfn[0x%lx]\n",
       page_to_pfn(start_page), page_to_pfn(end_page));
printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: "
       "start_nid[%d] end_nid[%d]\n",
       page_to_nid(start_page), page_to_nid(end_page));
 ...

And here's what I got:

move_freepages: Bogus zones: start_page[2207d0000] end_page[2207dffc0] zone[fffff8103effcb00]
move_freepages: start_zone[fffff8103effcb00] end_zone[fffff8003fffeb00]
move_freepages: start_pfn[0x81f600] end_pfn[0x81f7ff]
move_freepages: start_nid[1] end_nid[0]

My memory layout on this box is:

[    0.000000] Zone PFN ranges:
[    0.000000]   Normal   0x00000000 -> 0x0081ff5d
[    0.000000] Movable zone start PFN for each node
[    0.000000] early_node_map[8] active PFN ranges
[    0.000000]     0: 0x00000000 -> 0x00020000
[    0.000000]     1: 0x00800000 -> 0x0081f7ff
[    0.000000]     1: 0x0081f800 -> 0x0081fe50
[    0.000000]     1: 0x0081fed1 -> 0x0081fed8
[    0.000000]     1: 0x0081feda -> 0x0081fedb
[    0.000000]     1: 0x0081fedd -> 0x0081fee5
[    0.000000]     1: 0x0081fee7 -> 0x0081ff51
[    0.000000]     1: 0x0081ff59 -> 0x0081ff5d

So it's a block move in that 0x81f600-->0x81f7ff region which triggers
the problem.

This patch:

Declaration of early_pfn_to_nid() is scattered over per-arch include
files, and it seems it's complicated to know when the declaration is used.
 I think it makes fix-for-memmap-init not easy.

This patch moves all declaration to include/linux/mm.h

After this,
  if !CONFIG_NODES_POPULATES_NODE_MAP && !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID
     -> Use static definition in include/linux/mm.h
  else if !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID
     -> Use generic definition in mm/page_alloc.c
  else
     -> per-arch back end function will be called.

15 years agoatmel_serial might lose modem status change
Atsushi Nemoto [Wed, 18 Feb 2009 22:48:28 +0000 (14:48 -0800)]
atmel_serial might lose modem status change

I found a problem of handling of modem status of atmel_serial driver.

With the commit 1ecc26 ("atmel_serial: split the interrupt handler"),
handling of modem status signal was splitted into two parts.  The
atmel_tasklet_func() compares new status with irq_status_prev, but
irq_status_prev is not correct if signal status was changed while the port
is closed.

Here is a sequence to cause problem:

1. Remote side sets CTS (and DSR).
2. Local side close the port.
3. Local side clears RTS and DTR.
4. Remote side clears CTS and DSR.
5. Local side reopen the port.  hw_stopped becomes 1.
6. Local side sets RTS and DTR.
7. Remote side sets CTS and DSR.

Then CTS change interrupt can be received, but since CTS bit in
irq_status_prev and new status is same, uart_handle_cts_change() will not
be called (so hw_stopped will not be cleared, i.e.  cannot send any data).

I suppose irq_status_prev should be initialized at somewhere in open
sequence.

Itai Levi pointed out that we need to initialize atmel_port->irq_status
as well here. His analysis is as follows:

> Regarding the second part of the patch (which resets irq_status_prev),
> it turns out that both versions of the patch (mine and Atsushi's)
> still leave enough room for faulty behavior when opening the port.
>
> This is because we are not resetting both irq_status_prev and
> irq_status in atmel_startup() to CSR, which leads faulty behavior in
> the following sequences:
>
> First case:
> 1. closing the port while CTS line = 1 (TX not allowed)
> 2. setting CTS line = 0 (TX allowed)
> 3. opening the port
> 4. transmitting one char
> 5. Cannot transmit more chars, although CTS line is 0
>
> Second case:
> 1. closing the port while CTS line = 0 (TX allowed)
> 2. setting CTS line = 1 (TX not allowed)
> 3. opening the port
> 4. receiving some chars
> 5. Now we can transmit, although CTS line is 1
>
> This reason for this is that the tasklet is scheduled as a result of
> TX or RX interrupts (not a status change!), in steps 4 above. Inside
> the tasklet, the atmel_port->irq_status (which holds the value from
> the previous session) is compared to atmel_port->irq_status_prev.
> Hence, a status-change of the CTS line is faultily detected.
>
> Both cases were verified on 9260 hardware.

s3cmci: Fix hangup in do_pio_write()

This commit fixes the regression what was added by commit
088a78af978d0c8e339071a9b2bca1f4cb368f30 "s3cmci: Support transfers
which are not multiple of 32 bits."

fifo_free() now returns amount of available space in FIFO buffer in
bytes.  But do_pio_write() writes to FIFO 32-bit words.  Condition for
return from cycle is (fifo_free() == 0), but when fifo has 1..3 bytes
of free space then this condition will never be true and system hangs.

This patch changes condition in the while() to (fifo_free() > 3).

ALSA: jack - Use card->shortname for input name

Currently the jack layer refers to card->longname as a part of
its input device name string.  However, longname is often really long
and way too ugly as an identifier, such as,
"HDA Intel at 0xf8400000 irq 21".

This patch changes the code to use card->shortname instead.
The shortname string contains usually the h/w vendor and product
names but without messy I/O port or IRQ numbers.

block: fix booting from partitioned md array

Hi Tejun,

 it looks like your commit:

   block: don't depend on consecutive minor space
   f331c0296f2a9fee0d396a70598b954062603015

 broke a particular case for booting from partitioned md/raid devices.
 That is the second time this has been broken recently.  The previous
 time was fixed by

   block: do_mounts - accept root=<non-existant partition>
   30f2f0eb4bd2c43d10a8b0d872c6e5ad8f31c9a0

 Because the data isn't available when an md device is first created
 (we add disks and set it up after creation), the initial partition
 scan finds nothing.  It is not until the device is opened that
 another partition scan happens and finds something.

 So at the point where the kernel parameter "root=/dev/md_d0p1" is
 being parsed, md_d0 exists, but md_d0p1 does not.
 However if we let blk_lookup_devt return the correct device number
 even though the device doesn't exist, then the attempt to mount it
 will successfully find the partition.

 I have tried in the past to find a way to get the partition table to
 be read as soon as the array is assembled but that proved impossible
 (at the time).  I don't remember the details, and could possibly
 revisit it.  However it would be really nice if blk_lookup_devt
 could be adjusted to again accept non existant partitions.

bsg: Fix sense buffer bug in SG_IO

When submitting requests via SG_IO, which does a sync io, a
bsg_command is not allocated. So an in-Kernel sense_buffer was not
set. However when calling blk_execute_rq() with no sense buffer
one is provided from the stack. Now bsg at blk_complete_sgv4_hdr_rq()
would check if rq->sense_len and a sense was requested by sg_io_v4
the rq->sense was copy_user() back, but by now it is already mangled
stack memory.

I have fixed that by forcing a sense_buffer when calling bsg_map_hdr().
The bsg_command->sense is provided in the write/read path like before,
and on-the-stack buffer is provided when doing SG_IO.

I have also fixed a dprintk message to print rq->errors in hex because
of the scsi bit-field use of this member. For other block devices it
does not matter anyway.
