18 years ago[PATCH] uml: fix I/O hang
Jeff Dike [Fri, 3 Nov 2006 06:07:22 +0000 (22:07 -0800)]
[PATCH] uml: fix I/O hang

Fix a UML hang in which everything would just stop until some I/O happened
- a ping, someone whacking the keyboard - at which point everything would
start up again as though nothing had happened.

The cause was gcc reordering some code which absolutely needed to be
executed in the order in the source.  When unblock_signals switches signals
from off to on, it needs to see if any interrupts had happened in the
critical section.  The interrupt handlers check signals_enabled - if it is
zero, then the handler adds a bit to the "pending" bitmask and returns.
unblock_signals checks this mask to see if any signals need to be
delivered.

The crucial part is this:
signals_enabled = 1;
save_pending = pending;
if(save_pending == 0)
return;
pending = 0;

In order to avoid an interrupt arriving between reading pending and setting
it to zero, in which case, the record of the interrupt would be erased,
signals are enabled.

What happened was that gcc reordered this so that 'save_pending = pending'
came before 'signals_enabled = 1', creating a one-instruction window within
which an interrupt could arrive, set its bit in pending, and have it be
immediately erased.

When the I/O workload is purely disk-based, the loss of a block device
interrupt stops the entire I/O system because the next block request will
wait for the current one to finish.  Thus the system hangs until something
else causes some I/O to arrive, such as a network packet or console input.

The fix to this particular problem is a memory barrier between enabling
signals and reading the pending signal mask.  An xchg would also probably
work.

Looking over this code for similar problems led me to do a few more
things:

- make signals_enabled and pending volatile so that they don't get cached
  in registers

- add an mb() to the return paths of block_signals and unblock_signals so
  that the modification of signals_enabled doesn't get shuffled into the
  caller in the event that these are inlined in the future.

[PATCH] Fix ipc entries removal

Fix two issuses related to ipc_ids->entries freeing.

1. When freeing ipc namespace we need to free entries allocated
   with ipc_init_ids().

2. When removing old entries in grow_ary() ipc_rcu_putref()
   may be called on entries set to &ids->nullentry earlier in
   ipc_init_ids().
   This is almost impossible without namespaces, but with
   them this situation becomes possible.

Found during OpenVZ testing after obvious leaks in beancounters.

[PATCH] sys_pselect7 vs compat_sys_pselect7 uaccess error handling

758333458aa719bfc26ec16eafd4ad3a9e96014d fixes the not checked copy_to_user
return value of compat_sys_pselect7.  I ran into this too because of an old
source tree, but my fix would look quite a bit different to Andi's fix.

The reason is that the compat function IMHO should behave the very same as
the non-compat function if possible.  Since sys_pselect7 does not return
-EFAULT in this specific case, change the compat code so it behaves like
sys_pselect7.

Repeated -j20 kernel builds on a G5 Quad running an SMP PREEMPT kernel
would often collapse within a day, some exec failing with "Bad address".
In each case examined, load_elf_binary was doing a kernel_read, but
generic_file_aio_read's access_ok saw current->thread.fs.seg as USER_DS
instead of KERNEL_DS.

objdump of filemap.o shows gcc 4.1.0 emitting "mr r5,r13 ... ld r9,416(r5)"
here for get_paca()->__current, instead of the expected and much more usual
"ld r9,416(r13)"; I've seen other gcc4s do the same, but perhaps not gcc3s.

So, if the task is preempted and rescheduled on a different cpu in between
the mr and the ld, r5 will be looking at a different paca_struct from the
one it's now on, pick up the wrong __current, and perhaps the wrong seg.
Presumably much worse could happen elsewhere, though that split is rare.

Other architectures appear to be safe (x86_64's read_pda is more limiting
than get_paca), but ppc64 needs to force "current" into one instruction.

numerous error messages:

 iommu_alloc failed, tbl c0000000010d5c48 vaddr c0000000d875eff0 npages 1

Some experimentation indicates that this is essentially because
one 1500 byte ethernet MTU gets mapped as a 64K DMA region when
the large 64K pages are enabled. Thus, it doesn't take much to
exhaust all of the available DMA mappings for a high-speed card.

This patch changes the iommu allocator to work with its own
unique, distinct page size. Although the patch is long, its
actually quite simple: it just #defines a distinct IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE
and then uses this in all the places that matter.

As a side effect, it also dramatically improves network performance
on platforms with H-calls on iommu translation inserts/removes (since
we no longer call it 16 times for a 1500 bytes packet when the iommu HW
is still 4k).

In the future, we might want to make the IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE a variable
in the iommu_table instance, thus allowing support for different HW
page sizes in the iommu itself.

[PATCH] ep93xx_eth: fix RX/TXstatus ring full handling

Ray Lehtiniemi reported that an incoming UDP packet flood can lock up
the ep93xx ethernet driver.  Herbert Valerio Riedel noted that due to
the way ep93xx_eth manages the RX/TXstatus rings, it cannot distinguish
a full ring from an empty one, and correctly suggested that this was
likely to be causing this lockup to occur.

Instead of looking at the hardware's RX/TXstatus ring write pointers
to determine when to stop reading from those rings, we should just check
every individual RX/TXstatus descriptor's valid bit instead, since there
is no other way to distinguish an empty ring from a full ring, and if
there is a descriptor waiting, we take the hit of reading the descriptor
from memory anyway.

[IA64] MCA recovery: Montecito support

The information in MCA records is filled in slightly differently on
Montecito than on Madison/McKinley.  Usually, the cache check and bus
check target identifiers have the same address.   On Montecito the
cache check and bus check target identifiers can be different if
a corrected error (ie SBE or unconsumed poison data) was encountered and
then an uncorrected error (ie DBE) was consumed.  In that case, the
cache check target identifier is the physical address of the DBE (that
caused the MCA to surface) while the bus check target identifier is the
physical address of the SBE.  This patch correctly finds the target
identifier that triggered the MCA.

If there are multiple valid cache target identifiers in the same
error record then use the one with the lowest cache level.
