Andi Kleen [Tue, 17 May 2005 04:53:28 +0000 (21:53 -0700)]
[PATCH] x86_64: Add pmtimer support

There are unfortunately more and more multi processor Opteron systems which
don't have HPET timer support in the southbridge.  This covers in particular
Nvidia and VIA chipsets.  They also don't guarantee that the TSCs are
synchronized between CPUs; and especially with MP powernow the systems are
nearly unusable because the time gets very inconsistent between CPUs.

The timer code for x86-64 was originally written under the assumption that we
could fall back to the HPET timer on such systems.  But this doesn't work
there.

Another alternative is to use the ACPI PM timer as primary time source.  This
patch does that.  The kernel only uses PM timer when there is no other choice
because it has some disadvantages.

Ported over from i386.  It should be faster than the i386 version because I
dropped the "read three times" workaround, but is still considerable slower
than HPET and also does not work together with vsyscalls which have to be
disabled.

Andi Kleen [Tue, 17 May 2005 04:53:25 +0000 (21:53 -0700)]
[PATCH] x86_64: Update TSC sync algorithm

The new TSC sync algorithm recently submitted did not work too well.

The result was that some MP machines where the TSC came up of the BIOS very
unsynchronized and that did not have HPET support were nearly unusable because
the time would jump forwards and backwards between CPUs.

After a lot of research ;-) and some more prototypes I ended up with just
using the one from IA64 which looks best.  It has some internal self tuning
that should adapt to changing interconnect latencies.  It holds up in my tests
so far.

I believe it was originally written by David Mosberger, I just ported it over
to x86-64.  See the inline comment for a description.

This cleans up the code because it uses smp_call_function for syncing instead
of having custom hooks in SMP bootup.

Please note that the cycle numbers it outputs are too optimistic because they
do not take into account the latency of WRMSR and RDTSC, which can be hundreds
of cycles.  It seems to be able to sync a dual Opteron to 200-300 cycles,
which is probably good enough.

There is a timing window during AP bootup where interrupts can see
inconsistent time before the TSC is synced.  It is hard to avoid unfortunately
because we can only do the TSC sync after some setup, and we need to enable
interrupts before that.  I just ignored it for now.

XP video capture cards work.  I've been advised to post it here after

[PATCH] Fix root hole in pktcdvd

ioctl_by_bdev may only be used INSIDE the kernel.  If the "arg" argument
refers to memory that is accessed by put_user/get_user in the ioctl
function, the memory needs to be in the kernel address space (that's the
set_fs(KERNEL_DS) doing in the ioctl_by_bdev).  This works on i386 because
even with set_fs(KERNEL_DS) the user space memory is still accessible with
put_user/get_user.  That is not true for s390.  In short the ioctl
implementation of the pktcdvd device driver is horribly broken.

[PATCH] Fix root hole in raw device

[Patch] Fix raw device ioctl pass-through

Raw character devices are supposed to pass ioctls through to the block
devices they are bound to.  Unfortunately, they are using the wrong
function for this: ioctl_by_bdev(), instead of blkdev_ioctl().

ioctl_by_bdev() performs a set_fs(KERNEL_DS) before calling the ioctl,
redirecting the user-space buffer access to the kernel address space.
This is, needless to say, a bad thing.

This was noticed first on s390, where raw IO was non-functioning.  The
s390 driver config does not actually allow raw IO to be enabled, which
was the first part of the problem.  Secondly, the s390 kernel address
space is distinct from user, causing legal raw ioctls to fail.  I've
reproduced this on a kernel built with 4G:4G split on x86, which fails
in the same way (-EFAULT if the address does not exist kernel-side;
returns success without actually populating the user buffer if it does.)

The patch below fixes both the config and address-space problems.  It's
based closely on a patch by Jan Glauber <jang@de.ibm.com>, which has
been tested on s390 at IBM.  I've tested it on x86 4G:4G (split address
space) and x86_64 (common address space).

Kernel-address-space access has been assigned CAN-2005-1264.

tt-mode closes switch_pipes in exit_thread_tt and kills processes in

In very rare cases the exiting process can be scheduled out after having set
exit_state and closed switch_pipes (from release_task it calls proc_pid_flush,
which might sleep).  If this process is to be restarted, UML failes in
switch_to_tt with:

   write of switch_pipe failed, err = 9

We fix this by closing switch_pipes not in exit_thread_tt, but later in
release_thread_tt.  Additionally, we set switch_pipe[0] = 0 after closing.
switch_to_tt must not kill "from" process depending on its exit_state, but
must kill it after release_thread was processed only, so it examines
switch_pipe[0] for its decision.
