[PATCH] Fix cpu timers exit deadlock and races

Oleg Nesterov reported an SMP deadlock.  If there is a running timer
tracking a different process's CPU time clock when the process owning
the timer exits, we deadlock on tasklist_lock in posix_cpu_timer_del via
exit_itimers.

That code was using tasklist_lock to check for a race with __exit_signal
being called on the timer-target task and clearing its ->signal.
However, there is actually no such race.  __exit_signal will have called
posix_cpu_timers_exit and posix_cpu_timers_exit_group before it does
that.  Those will clear those k_itimer's association with the dying
task, so posix_cpu_timer_del will return early and never reach the code
in question.

In addition, posix_cpu_timer_del called from exit_itimers during execve
or directly from timer_delete in the process owning the timer can race
with an exiting timer-target task to cause a double put on timer-target
task struct.  Make sure we always access cpu_timers lists with sighand
lock held.

Christian Krause [Mon, 17 Oct 2005 21:30:48 +0000 (14:30 -0700)]
[PATCH] USB: fix bug in handling of highspeed usb HID devices

During the development of an USB device I found a bug in the handling of
Highspeed HID devices in the kernel.

What happened?

Highspeed HID devices are correctly recognized and enumerated by the
kernel. But even if usbhid kernel module is loaded, no HID reports are
received by the kernel.

The output of the hardware USB analyzer told me that the host doesn't
even poll for interrupt IN transfers (even the "interrupt in" USB
transfer are polled by the host).

After some debugging in hid-core.c I've found the reason.

In case of a highspeed device, the endpoint interval is re-calculated in
driver/usb/input/hid-core.c:

line 1669:
             /* handle potential highspeed HID correctly */
             interval = endpoint->bInterval;
             if (dev->speed == USB_SPEED_HIGH)
                   interval = 1 << (interval - 1);

Basically this calculation is correct (refer to USB 2.0 spec, 9.6.6).
This new calculated value of "interval" is used as input for
usb_fill_int_urb:

line 1685:

            usb_fill_int_urb(hid->urbin, dev, pipe, hid->inbuf, 0,
                   hid_irq_in, hid, interval);

Unfortunately the same calculation as above is done a second time in
usb_fill_int_urb in the file include/linux/usb.h:

line 933:
        if (dev->speed == USB_SPEED_HIGH)
                urb->interval = 1 << (interval - 1);
        else
                urb->interval = interval;

This means, that if the endpoint descriptor (of a high speed device)
specifies e.g. bInterval = 7, the urb->interval gets the value:

hid-core.c: interval = 1 << (7-1) = 0x40 = 64
urb->interval = 1 << (interval -1) = 1 << (63) = integer overflow

Because of this the value of urb->interval is sometimes negative and is
rejected in core/urb.c:
line 353:
                /* too small? */
                if (urb->interval <= 0)
                        return -EINVAL;

The conclusion is, that the recalculaton of the interval (which is
necessary for highspeed) should not be made twice, because this is
simply wrong. ;-)

Re-calculation in usb_fill_int_urb makes more sense, because it is the
most general approach. So it would make sense to remove it from
hid-core.c.

Because in hid-core.c the interval variable is only used for calling
usb_fill_int_urb, it is no problem to remove the highspeed
re-calculation in this file.

are set at each console switch, since stty rows/cols apply to consoles
separately...

The attached solution is to keep the test, but if it fails, we assume that
the caller knows what it does (i.e.  it is svgatextmode) and then disable
any further call to vgacon_doresize.  Svgatextmode is usually used to
_expand_ the display, not to shrink it.  And it is harmless in the case of
a too big stty rows/cols: the display will just be cropped.  I tested it on
my laptop, and it works fine with svgatextmode.

A better solution would be that svgatextmode explicitely tells the kernel
not to care about video timing, but for this an interface needs be defined
and svgatextmode be patched.

[PATCH] list: add missing rcu_dereference on first element

It seems that all the list_*_rcu primitives are missing a memory barrier
on the very first dereference.  For example,

#define list_for_each_rcu(pos, head) \
for (pos = (head)->next; prefetch(pos->next), pos != (head); \
pos = rcu_dereference(pos->next))

It will go something like:

pos = (head)->next

prefetch(pos->next)

pos != (head)

do stuff

We're missing a barrier here.

pos = rcu_dereference(pos->next)

fetch pos->next

barrier given by rcu_dereference(pos->next)

store pos

Without the missing barrier, the pos->next value may turn out to be stale.
In fact, if "do stuff" were also dereferencing pos and relying on
list_for_each_rcu to provide the barrier then it may also break.

So here is a patch to make sure that we have a barrier for the first
element in the list.

[SPARC64]: Fix boot failures on SunBlade-150

The sequence to move over to the Linux trap tables from
the firmware ones needs to be more air tight.  It turns
out that to be %100 safe we do need to be able to translate
OBP mappings in our TLB miss handlers early.

In order not to eat up a lot of kernel image memory with
static page tables, just use the translations array in
the OBP TLB miss handlers.  That solves the bulk of the
problem.

Furthermore, to make sure the OBP TLB miss path will work
even before the fixed MMU globals are loaded, explicitly
load %g1 to TLB_SFSR at the beginning of the i-TLB and
d-TLB miss handlers.

To ease the OBP TLB miss walking of the prom_trans[] array,
we sort it then delete all of the non-OBP entries in there
(for example, there are entries for the kernel image itself
which we're not interested in at all).

We also save about 32K of kernel image size with this change.
Not a bad side effect :-)

There are still some reasons why trampoline.S can't use the
setup_trap_table() yet.  The most noteworthy are:

1) OBP boots secondary processors with non-bias'd stack for
   some reason.  This is easily fixed by using a small bootup
   stack in the kernel image explicitly for this purpose.

2) Doing a firmware call via the normal C call prom_set_trap_table()
   goes through the whole OBP enter/exit sequence that saves and
   restores OBP and Linux kernel state in the MMUs.  This path
   unfortunately does a "flush %g6" while loading up the OBP locked
   TLB entries for the firmware call.

   If we setup the %g6 in the trampoline.S code properly, that
   is in the PAGE_OFFSET linear mapping, but we're not on the
   kernel trap table yet so those addresses won't translate properly.

   One idea is to do a by-hand firmware call like we do in the
   early bootup code and elsewhere here in trampoline.S  But this
   fails as well, as aparently the secondary processors are not
   booted with OBP's special locked TLB entries loaded.  These
   are necessary for the firwmare to processes TLB misses correctly
   up until the point where we take over the trap table.

This does need to be resolved at some point.

What we want is a 4MB aligned physical address to map at KERNBASE.
Mistakedly we were 4MB aligning the virtual address where the kernel
initially sits, that's wrong.

Instead, we should PAGE align the virtual address, then 4MB align the
physical address result the prom gives to us.

[PATCH] Don't map the same page too much

Refuse to install a page into a mapping if the mapping count is already
ridiculously large.

You probably cannot trigger this on 32-bit architectures, but on a
64-bit setup we should protect against it.

Newer gcc's are generating this relocation, so the module loader needs to
handle it.
