2010-08-24xen: use percpu interrupts for IPIs and VIRQsJeremy Fitzhardinge1-4/+15
IPIs and VIRQs are inherently per-cpu event types, so treat them as such: - use a specific percpu irq_chip implementation, and - handle them with handle_percpu_irq This makes the path for delivering these interrupts more efficient (no masking/unmasking, no locks), and it avoid problems with attempts to migrate them.

2010-08-21drm/i915: Remove the conflicting BUG_ON()Chris Wilson1-2/+0
We now attempt to free "active" objects following a GPU hang as either the GPU will be reset or the hang is permenant. In either case, the GPU writes will not be flushed to main memory and it should be safe to return that memory back to the system. The BUG_ON(active) is thus overkill and can erroneously fire after a EIO. Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Eric Anholt <[email protected]>

Waiting for a hard coded 20ms isn't always enough to make sure a vblank period has actually occurred, so add code to make sure we really have passed through a vblank period (or that the pipe is off when disabling). This prevents problems with mode setting and link training, and seems to fix a bug like https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29278, but on an HP 8440p instead.

2010-08-21workqueue: Add basic tracepoints to track workqueue executionArjan van de Ven2-0/+71
With the introduction of the new unified work queue thread pools, we lost one feature: It's no longer possible to know which worker is causing the CPU to wake out of idle. The result is that PowerTOP now reports a lot of "kworker/a:b" instead of more readable results. This patch adds a pair of tracepoints to the new workqueue code, similar in style to the timer/hrtimer tracepoints. With this pair of tracepoints, the next PowerTOP can correctly report which work item caused the wakeup (and how long it took): Interrupt (43) i915 time 3.51ms wakeups 141 Work ieee80211_iface_work time 0.81ms wakeups 29 Work do_dbs_timer time 0.55ms wakeups 24 Process Xorg time 21.36ms wakeups 4 Timer sched_rt_period_timer time 0.01ms wakeups 1 Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>

2010-08-21mm: make stack guard page logic use vm_prev pointerLinus Torvalds1-4/+11
Like the mlock() change previously, this makes the stack guard check code use vma->vm_prev to see what the mapping below the current stack is, rather than have to look it up with find_vma(). Also, accept an abutting stack segment, since that happens naturally if you split the stack with mlock or mprotect.

2010-08-21mm: make the mlock() stack guard page checks stricterLinus Torvalds1-5/+16

2010-08-21mm: make the vma list be doubly linkedLinus Torvalds4-9/+28
It's a really simple list, and several of the users want to go backwards in it to find the previous vma.

Chapter 6 is right about mutex_trylock, but chapter 10 wasn't. This error was introduced during semaphore-to-mutex conversion of the Unreliable guide. :-) If user context which performs mutex_lock() or mutex_trylock() is preempted by interrupt context which performs mutex_trylock() on the same mutex instance, a deadlock occurs. This is because these functions do not disable local IRQs when they operate on mutex->wait_lock.

2010-08-20oom: __task_cred() need rcu_read_lock()KOSAKI Motohiro1-1/+1
dump_tasks() needs to hold the RCU read lock around its access of the target task's UID. To this end it should use task_uid() as it only needs that one thing from the creds. The fact that dump_tasks() holds tasklist_lock is insufficient to prevent the target process replacing its credentials on another CPU.

2010-08-19mtd: nand: Fix regression in BBM detectionBrian Norris1-7/+3
Commit c7b28e25cb9beb943aead770ff14551b55fa8c79 ("mtd: nand: refactor BB marker detection") caused a regression in detection of factory-set bad block markers, especially for certain small-page NAND. This fix removes some unneeded constraints on using NAND_SMALL_BADBLOCK_POS, making the detection code more correct. This regression can be seen, for example, in Hynix HY27US081G1M and similar.

2010-08-19kprobes/x86: Fix the return address of multiple kretprobesKUMANO Syuhei1-3/+22
Fix the return address of subsequent kretprobes when multiple kretprobes are set on the same function. For example: # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo "r:event1 sys_symlink" > kprobe_events # echo "r:event2 sys_symlink" >> kprobe_events # echo 1 > events/kprobes/enable # ln -s /tmp/foo /tmp/bar (without this patch) # cat trace ln-897 [000] 20404.133727: event1: (kretprobe_trampoline+0x0/0x4c <- sys_symlink) ln-897 [000] 20404.133747: event2: (system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b <- sys_symlink) (with this patch) # cat trace ln-740 [000] 13799.491076: event1: (system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b <- sys_symlink) ln-740 [000] 13799.491096: event2: (system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b <- sys_symlink) Signed-off-by: KUMANO Syuhei <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: Masami Hiramatsu <[email protected]> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <[email protected]> Cc: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <[email protected]> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]> Cc: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <[email protected]> LKML-Reference: <1281853084.3254.11.camel@camp10-laptop> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]>
