Prevent going idle with softirq pending

The NOHZ patch contains a check for softirqs pending when a CPU goes idle.
The BUG is unrelated to NOHZ, it just was made visible by the NOHZ patch.
The BUG showed up mainly on P4 / hyperthreading enabled machines which lead
the investigations into the wrong direction in the first place.  The real
cause is in cond_resched_softirq():

cond_resched_softirq() is enabling softirqs without invoking the softirq
daemon when softirqs are pending.  This leads to the warning message in the
NOHZ idle code:

t1 runs softirq disabled code on CPU#0
interrupt happens, softirq is raised, but deferred (softirqs disabled)
t1 calls cond_resched_softirq()
enables softirqs via _local_bh_enable()
calls schedule()
t2 runs
t1 is migrated to CPU#1
t2 is done and invokes idle()
NOHZ detects the pending softirq

Fix: change _local_bh_enable() to local_bh_enable() so the softirq
daemon is invoked.

recalc_sigpending_tsk fixes

do_sigaction but no signal_wake_up call was made, preventing later signals
from waking up blocked threads with TIF_SIGPENDING already set.

This change makes recalc_sigpending_tsk private to the signals code.  It

17 years agoUSB: Add support for Olimex arm-usb-ocd JTAG interface serial port

USB: Add support for Olimex arm-usb-ocd JTAG interface serial port

This patch adds support for the serial port on Olimex arm-usb-ocd
JTAG interface.

The device appears as two serial ports, but the first one is reserved
for the JTAG interface. The JTAG interface can be used with OpenOCD
from userspace. For more information, please see:
