2011-05-18ftrace: Add ops parameter to ftrace_startup/shutdown functionsSteven Rostedt1-14/+14
In order to allow different ops to enable different functions, the ftrace_startup() and ftrace_shutdown() functions need the ops parameter passed to them. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <[email protected]>
2011-05-18ftrace: Add enabled_functions fileSteven Rostedt1-2/+49
Add the enabled_functions file that is used to show all the functions that have been enabled for tracing as well as their ref counts. This helps seeing if any function has been registered and what functions are being traced. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <[email protected]>
2011-05-18ftrace: Use counters to enable functions to traceSteven Rostedt2-18/+148
Every function has its own record that stores the instruction pointer and flags for the function to be traced. There are only two flags: enabled and free. The enabled flag states that tracing for the function has been enabled (actively traced), and the free flag states that the record no longer points to a function and can be used by new functions (loaded modules). These flags are now moved to the MSB of the flags (actually just the top 32bits). The rest of the bits (30 bits) are now used as a ref counter. Everytime a tracer register functions to trace, those functions will have its counter incremented. When tracing is enabled, to determine if a function should be traced, the counter is examined, and if it is non-zero it is set to trace. When a ftrace_ops is registered to trace functions, its hashes are examined. If the ftrace_ops filter_hash count is zero, then all functions are set to be traced, otherwise only the functions in the hash are to be traced. The exception to this is if a function is also in the ftrace_ops notrace_hash. Then that function's counter is not incremented for this ftrace_ops. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <[email protected]>
2011-05-18ftrace: Separate hash allocation and assignmentSteven Rostedt1-42/+233
When filtering, allocate a hash to insert the function records. After the filtering is complete, assign it to the ftrace_ops structure. This allows the ftrace_ops structure to have a much smaller array of hash buckets instead of wasting a lot of memory. A read only empty_hash is created to be the minimum size that any ftrace_ops can point to. When a new hash is created, it has the following steps: o Allocate a default hash. o Walk the function records assigning the filtered records to the hash o Allocate a new hash with the appropriate size buckets o Move the entries from the default hash to the new hash.

2011-05-18ftrace: Create a global_ops to hold the filter and notrace hashesSteven Rostedt2-21/+54
Combine the filter and notrace hashes to be accessed by a single entity, the global_ops. The global_ops is a ftrace_ops structure that is passed to different functions that can read or modify the filtering of the function tracer. The ftrace_ops structure was modified to hold a filter and notrace hashes so that later patches may allow each ftrace_ops to have its own set of rules to what functions may be filtered.

2011-05-18ftrace: Use hash instead for FTRACE_FL_FILTERSteven Rostedt2-84/+70
When multiple users are allowed to have their own set of functions to trace, having the FTRACE_FL_FILTER flag will not be enough to handle the accounting of those users. Each user will need their own set of functions. Replace the FTRACE_FL_FILTER with a filter_hash instead. This is temporary until the rest of the function filtering accounting gets in. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <[email protected]>
2011-05-18ftrace: Replace FTRACE_FL_NOTRACE flag with a hash of ignored functionsSteven Rostedt2-27/+150
To prepare for the accounting system that will allow multiple users of the function tracer, having the FTRACE_FL_NOTRACE as a flag in the dyn_trace record does not make sense. All ftrace_ops will soon have a hash of functions they should trace and not trace. By making a global hash of functions not to trace makes this easier for the transition.

2011-05-18drivercore: revert addition of of_match to struct deviceGrant Likely22-50/+108
Commit b826291c, "drivercore/dt: add a match table pointer to struct device" added an of_match pointer to struct device to cache the of_match_table entry discovered at driver match time. This was unsafe because matching is not an atomic operation with probing a driver. If two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get overwritten. This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to call of_match_device() directly instead. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <[email protected]>

If two drivers are probing devices at the same time, both will write their match table result to the dev->of_match cache at the same time. Only write the result if the device matches. In a thread titled "SBus devices sometimes detected, sometimes not", Meelis reported his SBus hme was not detected about 50% of the time.

2011-05-18configfs: Fix race between configfs_readdir() and configfs_d_iput()Joel Becker1-5/+28
configfs_readdir() will use the existing inode numbers of inodes in the dcache, but it makes them up for attribute files that aren't currently instantiated. There is a race where a closing attribute file can be tearing down at the same time as configfs_readdir() is trying to get its inode number. We want to get the inode number of open attribute files, because they should match while instantiated. We can't lock down the transition where dentry->d_inode is set to NULL, so we just check for NULL there. We can, however, ensure that an inode we find isn't iput() in configfs_d_iput() until after we've accessed it. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <[email protected]>
2011-05-18x86, 64-bit: Fix copy_[to/from]_user() checks for the userspace address limitJiri Olsa2-3/+3
As reported in BZ #30352: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30352 there's a kernel bug related to reading the last allowed page on x86_64. The _copy_to_user() and _copy_from_user() functions use the following check for address limit: if (buf + size >= limit) fail(); while it should be more permissive: if (buf + size > limit) fail(); That's because the size represents the number of bytes being read/write from/to buf address AND including the buf address. So the copy function will actually never touch the limit address even if "buf + size == limit". Following program fails to use the last page as buffer due to the wrong limit check: #include <sys/mman.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <assert.h> #define PAGE_SIZE (4096) #define LAST_PAGE ((void*)(0x7fffffffe000)) int main() { int fds[2], err; void * ptr = mmap(LAST_PAGE, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_FIXED, -1, 0); assert(ptr == LAST_PAGE); err = socketpair(AF_LOCAL, SOCK_STREAM, 0, fds); assert(err == 0); err = send(fds[0], ptr, PAGE_SIZE, 0); perror("send"); assert(err == PAGE_SIZE); err = recv(fds[1], ptr, PAGE_SIZE, MSG_WAITALL); perror("recv"); assert(err == PAGE_SIZE); return 0; } The other place checking the addr limit is the access_ok() function, which is working properly. There's just a misleading comment for the __range_not_ok() macro - which this patch fixes as well. The last page of the user-space address range is a guard page and Brian Gerst observed that the guard page itself due to an erratum on K8 cpus (#121 Sequential Execution Across Non-Canonical Boundary Causes Processor Hang). However, the test code is using the last valid page before the guard page. The bug is that the last byte before the guard page can't be read because of the off-by-one error. The guard page is left in place. This bug would normally not show up because the last page is part of the process stack and never accessed via syscalls.

2011-05-18configfs: Don't try to d_delete() negative dentries.Joel Becker1-2/+4
When configfs is faking mkdir() on its subsystem or default group objects, it starts by adding a negative dentry. It then tries to instantiate the group. If that should fail, it must clean up after itself. I was using d_delete() here, but configfs_attach_group() promises to return an empty dentry on error. d_delete() explodes with the entry dentry. Let's try d_drop() instead. The unhashing is what we want for our dentry. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <[email protected]>
2011-05-18block: don't delay blk_run_queue_asyncShaohua Li1-1/+3
Let's check a scenario: 1. blk_delay_queue(q, SCSI_QUEUE_DELAY); 2. blk_run_queue_async(); the second one will became a noop, because q->delay_work already has WORK_STRUCT_PENDING_BIT set, so the delayed work will still run after SCSI_QUEUE_DELAY. But blk_run_queue_async actually hopes the delayed work runs immediately. Fix this by doing a cancel on potentially pending delayed work before queuing an immediate run of the workqueue.

2011-05-18um: fix abortRichard Weinberger1-1/+22
os_dump_core() uses abort() to terminate UML in case of an fatal error. glibc's abort() calls raise(SIGABRT) which makes use of tgkill(). tgkill() has no effect within UML's kernel threads because they are not pthreads. As fallback abort() executes an invalid instruction to terminate the process. Therefore UML gets killed by SIGSEGV and leaves a ugly log entry in the host's kernel ring buffer. To get rid of this we use our own abort routine.

2011-05-17PM: Allow drivers to allocate memory from .prepare() callbacks safelyRafael J. Wysocki5-43/+61
If device drivers allocate substantial amounts of memory (above 1 MB) in their hibernate .freeze() callbacks (or in their legacy suspend callbcks during hibernation), the subsequent creation of hibernate image may fail due to the lack of memory. This is the case, because the drivers' .freeze() callbacks are executed after the hibernate memory preallocation has been carried out and the preallocated amount of memory may be too small to cover the new driver allocations. Unfortunately, the drivers' .prepare() callbacks also are executed after the hibernate memory preallocation has completed, so they are not suitable for allocating additional memory either. Thus the only way a driver can safely allocate memory during hibernation is to use a hibernate/suspend notifier. However, the notifiers are called before the freezing of user space and the drivers wanting to use them for allocating additional memory may not know how much memory needs to be allocated at that point. To let device drivers overcome this difficulty rework the hibernation sequence so that the memory preallocation is carried out after the drivers' .prepare() callbacks have been executed, so that the .prepare() callbacks can be used for allocating additional memory to be used by the drivers' .freeze() callbacks. Update documentation to match the new behavior of the code. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <[email protected]>

Moreover, CONFIG_PM_VERBOSE causes so much output to be generated that it's not really useful and almost no one sets it.
