[PATCH] FUTEX_WAKE_OP: enhanced error handling

The code for FUTEX_WAKE_OP calls an arch callback,
futex_atomic_op_inuser().  That callback can return an error code, but
currently the caller assumes any error is EFAULT, and will try various
things to resolve the fault before eventually giving up with EFAULT
(regardless of the original error code).  This is not a theoretical case -
arch callbacks currently return -ENOSYS if the opcode they are given is
bogus.

This patch alters the code to detect non-EFAULT errors and return them
directly to the user.

Of course, whether -ENOSYS is the correct return value for the bogus opcode
case, or whether EINVAL would be more appropriate is another question.

[PATCH] s390: remove pagex support

Remove pagex pseudo page fault code.  It does not work together with the
system call speedup that makes the complete system call path enabled for
interrupts.  To make pagex and the syscall speedup code work together we would
have to add code to the program check handler to do a critical section cleanup
like the asynchronous interrupt code.  This would make program checks slower.
Not what we want.

Newer versions of z/VM have the improved pfault pseudo page fault interface.
This replaces the old pagex interface and does not have the problem.  So its
better to just rip out the pagex code.

Jeff Dike noted that the assembly code for syscall stubs is misassembled with
GCC 3.2.3: the values copied in registers weren't preserved between one asm()
and the following one.

So I fixed the thing by rewriting the __asm__ constraints more like unistd.h
ones.

Note: in syscall6 case I had to add one more instruction (i.e.  moving arg6 in
eax and shuffling things around) - it's needed for the function to be valid in
general (we can't load the value from the stack, relative to ebp, because we
change it), but could be avoided since we actually use a constant as param 6.

The only fix would be to turn stub_syscall6 to a macro and use a "i"

The zImage wrapper has a bug where it doesn't claim() the memory for the
kernel properly, it forgets to take into account the offset between the ELF
header and the kernel itself.  This results on some machines, like G5s,
into a kernel that crashes at boot when clearing the BSS.

[PATCH] ia64: re-implement dma_get_cache_alignment to avoid EXPORT_SYMBOL

The current ia64 implementation of dma_get_cache_alignment does not work
for modules because it relies on a symbol which is not exported.  Direct
access to a global is a little ugly anyway, so this patch re-implements
dma_get_cache_alignment in a manner similar to what is currently used for
x86_64.

19 years ago[PATCH] ppc64: Fix bug in SLB miss handler for hugepages
David Gibson [Mon, 7 Nov 2005 08:57:52 +0000 (00:57 -0800)]
[PATCH] ppc64: Fix bug in SLB miss handler for hugepages

This patch, however, should be applied on top of the 64k-page-size patch to
fix some problems with hugepage (some pre-existing, another introduced by
this patch).

The patch fixes a bug in the SLB miss handler for hugepages on ppc64
introduced by the dynamic hugepage patch (commit id
c594adad5653491813959277fb87a2fef54c4e05) due to a misunderstanding of the
srd instruction's behaviour (mea culpa).  The problem arises when a 64-bit
process maps some hugepages in the low 4GB of the address space (unusual).
In this case, as well as the 256M segment in question being marked for
hugepages, other segments at 32G intervals will be incorrectly marked for
hugepages.

In the process, this patch tweaks the semantics of the hugepage bitmaps to
be more sensible.  Previously, an address below 4G was marked for hugepages
if the appropriate segment bit in the "low areas" bitmask was set *or* if
the low bit in the "high areas" bitmap was set (which would mark all
addresses below 1TB for hugepage).  With this patch, any given address is
governed by a single bitmap.  Addresses below 4GB are marked for hugepage
if and only if their bit is set in the "low areas" bitmap (256M
granularity).  Addresses between 4GB and 1TB are marked for hugepage iff
the low bit in the "high areas" bitmap is set.  Higher addresses are marked
for hugepage iff their bit in the "high areas" bitmap is set (1TB
granularity).

To avoid conflicts, this patch must be applied on top of BenH's pending
patch for 64k base page size [0].  As such, this patch also addresses a
hugepage problem introduced by that patch.  That patch allows hugepages of
1MB in size on hardware which supports it, however, that won't work when
using 4k pages (4 level pagetable), because in that case hugepage PTEs are
stored at the PMD level, and each PMD entry maps 2MB.  This patch simply
disallows hugepages in that case (we can do something cleverer to re-enable
them some other day).

Built, booted, and a handful of hugepage related tests passed on POWER5
LPAR (both ARCH=powerpc and ARCH=ppc64).
