* alarmtimers: Fix time comparisonThomas Gleixner2011-12-061-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | The expiry function compares the timer against current time and does not expire the timer when the expiry time is >= now. That's wrong. If the timer is set for now, then it must expire. Make the condition expiry > now for breaking out the loop.

| * x86/paravirt: PTE updates in k(un)map_atomic need to be synchronous, ↵Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk2011-12-051-0/+2

Under a heavy loaded machine processing "fork()" calls could crash with: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at f573fc8c IP: [<c01abc54>] swap_count_continued+0x104/0x180 *pdpt = 000000002a3b9027 *pde = 0000000001bed067 *pte = 0000000000000000 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: Pid: 1638, comm: apache2 Not tainted 3.0.4-linode37 #1 EIP: 0061:[<c01abc54>] EFLAGS: 00210246 CPU: 3 EIP is at swap_count_continued+0x104/0x180 .. snip..

Since we are running in batched mode (lazy) we don't actually set up the PTE mappings and the kmap_atomic is not done synchronously and ends up trying to dereference a page that has not been set. Looking at kmap_atomic_prot_pfn(), it uses 'arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode' and doing the same in kmap_atomic_prot() and __kunmap_atomic() makes the problem go away. Interestingly, commit b8bcfe997e4615 ("x86/paravirt: remove lazy mode in interrupts") removed part of this to fix an interrupt issue - but it went to far and did not consider this scenario.

Here, to remove code from the cache completely, a second WBINVD instruction must be executed after the MTRRs have been disabled. This patch provides resolution for that. Ideally, I will like to make changes only for Pentium 4 and Xeon processors. But, I am not finding easier way to do it. And, extra wbinvd() instruction does not hurt much for other processors.

Unfortunately it introduced a regression: prior to that change we used to always set the mp_bus_not_pci bit, then clear it if we found a PCI bus. After it, we set mp_bus_not_pci for ISA buses, clear it for PCI buses, and leave it alone otherwise. In the cases of ISA and PCI, there's not much difference. But ISA is not the only non-PCI bus, so it's better to always set mp_bus_not_pci and clear it only for PCI. Without this change, Dan's Dell PowerEdge 4200 panics on boot with a log indicating interrupt routing trouble unless the "noapic" option is supplied. With this change, the machine boots reliably without "noapic".

So, the actual overflow is never detected after this misdetection because WARN_ONCE() is used on the detection of it. This patch adds user-mode-vm checking before it to avoid this problem and bails out early if the user stack is used.

However, this is not what's happening. You get much fewer samples, maybe 3700 samples/event: $ perf report -D | tail -15 Aggregated stats: TOTAL events: 10998 MMAP events: 66 COMM events: 2 SAMPLE events: 10930 cycles stats: TOTAL events: 3644 SAMPLE events: 3644 cycles stats: TOTAL events: 3642 SAMPLE events: 3642 cycles stats: TOTAL events: 3644 SAMPLE events: 3644 On a Intel Nehalem or even AMD64, there are 4 counters capable of measuring cycles, so there is plenty of space to measure those events without multiplexing (even with the NMI watchdog active). And even with multiplexing, we'd expect roughly the same number of samples per event. The root of the problem was that when the event that caused the buffer to become full was not the first event passed on the cmdline, the user notification would get lost. The notification was sent to the file descriptor of the overflowed event but the perf tool was not polling on it. The perf tool aggregates all samples into a single buffer, i.e., the buffer of the first event. Consequently, it assumes notifications for any event will come via that descriptor. The seemingly straight forward solution of moving the waitq into the ringbuffer object doesn't work because of life-time issues. One could perf_event_set_output() on a fd that you're also blocking on and cause the old rb object to be freed while its waitq would still be referenced by the blocked thread -> FAIL. Therefore link all events to the ringbuffer and broadcast the wakeup from the ringbuffer object to all possible events that could be waited upon. This is rather ugly, and we're open to better solutions but it works for now.

Force LVT offset assignment in this case. If the OS assignment fails, fallback to BIOS settings and try to setup this. The fallback to BIOS settings weakens the family check since force_ibs_eilvt_setup() may fail e.g. in case of virtual machines. But setup may still succeed if BIOS offsets are correct. Other families don't have a workaround implemented that assigns LVT offsets. It's ok, to drop calling force_ibs_eilvt_setup() for that families. With the patch the [Firmware Bug] messages vanish.

In case kthread_stop sets should_stop and wakes up the process after should_stop is checked by the irq thread but before the task's state is changed, the irq thread might never exit: kthread_stop irq_wait_for_interrupt ------------ ---------------------- ... ... while (!kthread_should_stop()) { kthread->should_stop = 1; wake_up_process(k); wait_for_completion(&kthread->exited); ... set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE); ... schedule(); } Fix this by checking if the thread should stop after modifying the task's state.

And overlooks the fact that init_node_lock_keys() tests for it and ignores everything !FULL. Introduce a LATE stage and change the lockdep test to be <LATE.

We can solve this without losing any precision. We can decompose TSC into quotient and remainder of division by the scale factor, and then use this to convert TSC into nanoseconds.
