15 years agomm: account for MAP_SHARED mappings using VM_MAYSHARE and not VM_SHARED in hugetlbfs
Mel Gorman [Thu, 28 May 2009 21:34:40 +0000 (14:34 -0700)]
mm: account for MAP_SHARED mappings using VM_MAYSHARE and not VM_SHARED in hugetlbfs

Addresses http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13302

hugetlbfs reserves huge pages but does not fault them at mmap() time to
ensure that future faults succeed.  The reservation behaviour differs
depending on whether the mapping was mapped MAP_SHARED or MAP_PRIVATE.
For MAP_SHARED mappings, hugepages are reserved when mmap() is first
called and are tracked based on information associated with the inode.
Other processes mapping MAP_SHARED use the same reservation.  MAP_PRIVATE
track the reservations based on the VMA created as part of the mmap()
operation.  Each process mapping MAP_PRIVATE must make its own
reservation.

hugetlbfs currently checks if a VMA is MAP_SHARED with the VM_SHARED flag
and not VM_MAYSHARE.  For file-backed mappings, such as hugetlbfs,
VM_SHARED is set only if the mapping is MAP_SHARED and the file was opened
read-write.  If a shared memory mapping was mapped shared-read-write for
populating of data and mapped shared-read-only by other processes, then
hugetlbfs would account for the mapping as if it was MAP_PRIVATE.  This
causes processes to fail to map the file MAP_SHARED even though it should
succeed as the reservation is there.

This patch alters mm/hugetlb.c and replaces VM_SHARED with VM_MAYSHARE
when the intent of the code was to check whether the VMA was mapped
MAP_SHARED or MAP_PRIVATE.

15 years agox86: ignore VM_LOCKED when determining if hugetlb-backed page tables can be shared...
Mel Gorman [Thu, 28 May 2009 21:34:37 +0000 (14:34 -0700)]
x86: ignore VM_LOCKED when determining if hugetlb-backed page tables can be shared or not

Addresses http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13302

On x86 and x86-64, it is possible that page tables are shared beween
shared mappings backed by hugetlbfs.  As part of this,
page_table_shareable() checks a pair of vma->vm_flags and they must match
if they are to be shared.  All VMA flags are taken into account, including
VM_LOCKED.

The problem is that VM_LOCKED is cleared on fork().  When a process with a
shared memory segment forks() to exec() a helper, there will be shared
VMAs with different flags.  The impact is that the shared segment is
sometimes considered shareable and other times not, depending on what
process is checking.

What happens is that the segment page tables are being shared but the
count is inaccurate depending on the ordering of events.  As the page
tables are freed with put_page(), bad pmd's are found when some of the
children exit.  The hugepage counters also get corrupted and the Total and
Free count will no longer match even when all the hugepage-backed regions
are freed.  This requires a reboot of the machine to "fix".

This patch addresses the problem by comparing all flags except VM_LOCKED
when deciding if pagetables should be shared or not for hugetlbfs-backed
mapping.

usb-serial: fix crash when sub-driver updates firmware

This patch (as1244) fixes a crash in usb-serial that occurs when a
sub-driver returns a positive value from its attach method, indicating
that new firmware was loaded and the device will disconnect and
reconnect.  The usb-serial core then skips the step of registering the
port devices; when the disconnect occurs, the attempt to unregister
the ports fails dramatically.

This problem shows up with Keyspan devices and it might affect others
as well.

When the attach method returns a positive value, the patch sets
num_ports to 0.  This tells usb_serial_disconnect() not to try
unregistering any of the ports; instead they are cleaned up by

[ARM] Add cmpxchg support for ARMv6+ systems (v5)

Add cmpxchg/cmpxchg64 support for ARMv6K and ARMv7 systems
(original patch from Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>)

The cmpxchg and cmpxchg64 functions can be implemented using the
LDREX*/STREX* instructions. Since operand lengths other than 32bit are
required, the full implementations are only available if the ARMv6K
extensions are present (for the LDREXB, LDREXH and LDREXD instructions).

For ARMv6, only 32-bits cmpxchg is available.

Mathieu :

Make cmpxchg_local always available with best implementation for all type sizes (1, 2, 4 bytes).
Make cmpxchg64_local always available.

Use "Ir" constraint for "old" operand, like atomic.h atomic_cmpxchg does.

Change since v3 :
- Add "memory" clobbers (thanks to Nicolas Pitre)
- removed __asmeq(), only needed for old compilers, very unlikely on ARMv6+.

Note : ARMv7-M should eventually be ifdefed-out of cmpxchg64. But it's not
supported by the Linux kernel currently.

Put back arm < v6 cmpxchg support.

acpiphp doesn't have any real reason to keep a pointer to a

If a logical remove destroys the pci_dev, acpiphp won't find it

powerpc: Fix up dma_alloc_coherent() on platforms without cache coherency.

Kconfig-defined virtual address area in kernel space that nothing
actually carves out (and thus will overlap whatever is there),
or having some dependencies on being self contained in a single
PTE page which adds unnecessary constraints on the kernel virtual
address space.

This fixes it by using more classic PTE accessors and automatically
locating the area for consistent memory, carving an appropriate hole
in the kernel virtual address space, leaving only the size of that
area as a Kconfig option. It also brings some dma-mask related fixes

This reverts commit 33f00dcedb0e22cdb156a23632814fc580fcfcf8.

    While it was a good idea to try to use the mm/vmalloc.c allocator instead
    of our own (in fact, ours is itself a dup on an old variant of the vmalloc
    one), unfortunately, the approach is terminally busted since
    dma_alloc_coherent() can be called at interrupt time or in atomic contexts
    and there's little chances we'll make the code in mm/vmalloc.c cope with\       that :-(

    Until we can get the generic code to forbid that idiocy and fix all
    drivers abusing it, we pretty much have no choice but revert to
    our custom virtual space allocator.

    There's also a problem with SMP safety since freeing such mapping
    would require an IPI which cannot be done at interrupt time.

    However, right now, I don't think we support any platform that is
    both SMP and has non-coherent DMA (don't laugh, I know such things
    do exist !) so we can sort that out later.

[CPUFREQ] powernow-k8: determine exact CPU frequency for HW Pstates

Slightly modified by trenn@suse.de -> only do this on fam 10h and fam 11h.

Currently powernow-k8 determines CPU frequency from ACPI PSS objects, but
according to AMD family 11h BKDG this frequency is just a rounded value:

  "CoreFreq (MHz) = The CPU COF specified by MSRC001_00[6B:64][CpuFid]
  rounded to the nearest 100 Mhz."

As a consequnce powernow-k8 reports wrong CPU frequency on some systems,
e.g. on Turion X2 Ultra:

  powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Turion(tm)X2 Ultra DualCore Mobile ZM-82
               processors (2 cpu cores) (version 2.20.00)
  powernow-k8:    0 : pstate 0 (2200 MHz)
  powernow-k8:    1 : pstate 1 (1100 MHz)
  powernow-k8:    2 : pstate 2 (600 MHz)

But this is wrong as frequency for Pstate2 is 550 MHz. x86info reports it
correctly:

  #x86info -a |grep Pstate
  ...
  Pstate-0: fid=e, did=0, vid=24 (2200MHz)
  Pstate-1: fid=e, did=1, vid=30 (1100MHz)
  Pstate-2: fid=e, did=2, vid=3c (550MHz) (current)

Solution is to determine the frequency directly from Pstate MSRs instead
of using rounded values from ACPI table.

cpufreq fix timer teardown in ondemand governor

The problem is that dbs_timer_exit() uses cancel_delayed_work() when it should
use cancel_delayed_work_sync(). cancel_delayed_work() does not wait for the
workqueue handler to exit.

The ondemand governor does not seem to be affected because the
"if (!dbs_info->enable)" check at the beginning of the workqueue handler returns
immediately without rescheduling the work. The conservative governor in
2.6.30-rc has the same check as the ondemand governor, which makes things
usually run smoothly. However, if the governor is quickly stopped and then
started, this could lead to the following race :

dbs_enable could be reenabled and multiple do_dbs_timer handlers would run.
This is why a synchronized teardown is required.

The following patch applies to, at least, 2.6.28.x, 2.6.29.1, 2.6.30-rc2.

circular locking dependency :

(the following issue was faced when using cancel_delayed_work_sync() in the
timer teardown (which fixes a race).

Hrm, I think it must be due to my attempt to fix the timer teardown race
in ondemand governor mixed with new locking behavior in 2.6.30-rc.

The rwlock seems to be taken around the whole call to
cpufreq_governor_dbs(), when it should be only taken around accesses to
the locked data, and especially *not* around the call to
dbs_timer_exit().

Reverting my fix attempt would put the teardown race back in place
(replacing the cancel_delayed_work_sync by cancel_delayed_work).
Instead, a proper fix would imply modifying this critical section :

cpufreq.c: __cpufreq_remove_dev()
...
        if (cpufreq_driver->target)
                __cpufreq_governor(data, CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP);

        unlock_policy_rwsem_write(cpu);

To make sure the __cpufreq_governor() callback is not called with rwsem
held. This would allow execution of cancel_delayed_work_sync() without
being nested within the rwsem.

Applies on top of the 2.6.30-rc5 tree.

Required to remove circular dep in teardown of both conservative and
ondemande governors so they can use cancel_delayed_work_sync().
CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP does not modify the policy, therefore this locking seemed
unneeded.
