- On archs that have no-exec support, we vmalloc() a executable scratch
area of PAGE_SIZE and divide it up into an array of slots of maximum
instruction size for that arch
- On a kprobe registration, the original instruction is copied to the
first available free slot, so if multiple kprobes are registered, chances
are, they get contiguous slots
- On POWER4, due to not having coherent icaches, we could hit a situation
where a probe that is registered on one processor, is hit immediately on
another. This second processor could have fetched the stream of text from
the out-of-line single-stepping area *before* the probe registration
completed, possibly due to an earlier (and a different) kprobe hit and
hence would see stale data at the slot.
Executing such an arbitrary instruction lead to a problem as reported
in LTC bugzilla 23555.
The correct solution is to call flush_icache_range() as soon as the
instruction is copied for out-of-line single-stepping, so the correct
instruction is seen on all processors.
Thanks to Will Schmidt who tracked this down.

In the case of a system hang, the user will invoke soft-reset to
initiate the kdump boot. If xmon is enabled, the CPU(s) enter into the
xmon debugger. Unfortunately, the secondary CPU(s) will return to the
hung state when they exit from the debugger (returned from die() ->
system_reset_exception()). This causes a problem in kdump since the
hung CPU(s) will not respond to the IPI sent from kdump. This patch
fixes the issue by calling crash_kexec_secondary() directly from
system_reset_exception() without returning to the previous state. These
secondary CPUs wait 5ms until the kdump boot is started by the primary
CPU. In the case we exited from the debugger to "recover" (command 'x'
in xmon) the primary and the secondary CPUs will all return from die()
-> system_reset_exception() ->crash_kexec_secondary() wait 5ms, then
return to the previous state. A kdump boot is not started in this case.

The latest toolchains can produce a new ELF section in DSOs and
dynamically-linked executables. The new section ".gnu.hash" replaces
".hash", and allows for more efficient runtime symbol lookups by the
dynamic linker. The new ld option --hash-style={sysv|gnu|both} controls
whether to produce the old ".hash", the new ".gnu.hash", or both. In some
new systems such as Fedora Core 6, gcc by default passes --hash-style=gnu
to the linker, so that a standard invocation of "gcc -shared" results in
producing a DSO with only ".gnu.hash". The new ".gnu.hash" sections need
to be dealt with the same way as ".hash" sections in all respects; only the
dynamic linker cares about their contents. To work with older dynamic
linkers (i.e. preexisting releases of glibc), a binary must have the old
".hash" section. The --hash-style=both option produces binaries that a new
dynamic linker can use more efficiently, but an old dynamic linker can
still handle.
The new section runs afoul of the custom linker scripts used to build vDSO
images for the kernel. On ia64, the failure mode for this is a boot-time
panic because the vDSO's PT_IA_64_UNWIND segment winds up ill-formed.
This patch addresses the problem in two ways.
First, it mentions ".gnu.hash" in all the linker scripts alongside ".hash".
This produces correct vDSO images with --hash-style=sysv (or old tools),
with --hash-style=gnu, or with --hash-style=both.
Second, it passes the --hash-style=sysv option when building the vDSO
images, so that ".gnu.hash" is not actually produced. This is the most
conservative choice for compatibility with any old userland. There is some
concern that some ancient glibc builds (though not any known old production
system) might choke on --hash-style=both binaries. The optimizations
provided by the new style of hash section do not really matter for a DSO
with a tiny number of symbols, as the vDSO has. If someone wants to use
=gnu or =both for their vDSO builds and worry less about that
compatibility, just change the option and the linker script changes will
make any choice work fine.

This patch is part of an effort to unify the panic_on_oops behaviour across

It was pointed out to me by Andi Kleen that if an oops has occured in

panic, and that it would be really better for it not to be in the path at
all.
This patch removes the ssleep() call and reworks the console message
accordinly. I have a slght concern that the resulting console message is
too long, feedback welcome.
For powerpc it also unifies the 32bit and 64bit behaviour.

The firmware of POWER4 and JS20 systems does not switch the cpu to 64bit
mode when the registered system_reset and machine_check handlers get called.
If a 32bit process runs on that cpu at the time of the event, the cpu
remains in 32bit mode. xmon and kdump can not deal with it, the result is
an error like 'Bad kernel stack pointer fff2aad0 at 3200'.
xmon just loses some register info, but booting the kdump kernel usually fails.

This patch slightly reworks the new irq code to fix a small design error. I
removed the passing of the trigger to the map() calls entirely, it was not a
good idea to have one call do two different things. It also fixes a couple of
corner cases.
Mapping a linux virtual irq to a physical irq now does only that. Setting the
trigger is a different action which has a different call.
The main changes are:
- I no longer call host->ops->map() for an already mapped irq, I just return
the virtual number that was already mapped. It was called before to give an
opportunity to change the trigger, but that was causing issues as that could
happen while the interrupt was in use by a device, and because of the
trigger change, map would potentially muck around with things in a racy way.
That was causing much burden on a given's controller implementation of
map() to get it right. This is much simpler now. map() is only called on
the initial mapping of an irq, meaning that you know that this irq is _not_
being used. You can initialize the hardware if you want (though you don't
have to).
- Controllers that can handle different type of triggers (level/edge/etc...)
now implement the standard irq_chip->set_type() call as defined by the
generic code. That means that you can use the standard set_irq_type() to
configure an irq line manually if you wish or (though I don't like that
interface), pass explicit trigger flags to request_irq() as defined by the
generic kernel interfaces. Also, using those interfaces guarantees that
your controller set_type callback is called with the descriptor lock held,
thus providing locking against activity on the same interrupt (including
mask/unmask/etc...) automatically. A result is that, for example, MPIC's
own map() implementation calls irq_set_type(NONE) to configure the hardware
to the default triggers.
- To allow the above, the irq_map array entry for the new mapped interrupt
is now set before map() callback is called for the controller.
- The irq_create_of_mapping() (also used by irq_of_parse_and_map()) function
for mapping interrupts from the device-tree now also call the separate
set_irq_type(), and only does so if there is a change in the trigger type.
- While I was at it, I changed pci_read_irq_line() (which is the helper I
would expect most archs to use in their pcibios_fixup() to get the PCI
interrupt routing from the device tree) to also handle a fallback when the
DT mapping fails consisting of reading the PCI_INTERRUPT_PIN to know wether
the device has an interrupt at all, and the the PCI_INTERRUPT_LINE to get an
interrupt number from the device. That number is then mapped using the
default controller, and the trigger is set to level low. That default
behaviour works for several platforms that don't have a proper interrupt
tree like Pegasos. If it doesn't work for your platform, then either
provide a proper interrupt tree from the firmware so that fallback isn't
needed, or don't call pci_read_irq_line()
- Add back a bit that got dropped by my main rework patch for properly
clearing pending IPIs on pSeries when using a kexec

At the moment, powerpc and s390 have their own versions of do_softirq which
include local_bh_disable() and __local_bh_enable() calls. They end up
calling __do_softirq (in kernel/softirq.c) which also does
local_bh_disable/enable.
Apparently the two levels of disable/enable trigger a warning from some
validation code that Ingo is working on, and he would like to see the outer
level removed. But to do that, we have to move the account_system_vtime
calls that are currently in the arch do_softirq() implementations for
powerpc and s390 into the generic __do_softirq() (this is a no-op for other
archs because account_system_vtime is defined to be an empty inline
function on all other archs). This patch does that.

This adds the new irq remapper core and removes the old one. Because
there are some fundamental conflicts with the old code, like the value
of NO_IRQ which I'm now setting to 0 (as per discussions with Linus),
etc..., this commit also changes the relevant platform and driver code
over to use the new remapper (so as not to cause difficulties later
in bisecting).
This patch removes the old pre-parsing of the open firmware interrupt
tree along with all the bogus assumptions it made to try to renumber
interrupts according to the platform. This is all to be handled by the
new code now.
For the pSeries XICS interrupt controller, a single remapper host is
created for the whole machine regardless of how many interrupt
presentation and source controllers are found, and it's set to match
any device node that isn't a 8259. That works fine on pSeries and
avoids having to deal with some of the complexities of split source
controllers vs. presentation controllers in the pSeries device trees.
The powerpc i8259 PIC driver now always requests the legacy interrupt
range. It also has the feature of being able to match any device node
(including NULL) if passed no device node as an input. That will help
porting over platforms with broken device-trees like Pegasos who don't
have a proper interrupt tree.

This patch-queue improves the generic IRQ layer to be truly generic, by adding
various abstractions and features to it, without impacting existing
functionality.
While the queue can be best described as "fix and improve everything in the
generic IRQ layer that we could think of", and thus it consists of many
smaller features and lots of cleanups, the one feature that stands out most is
the new 'irq chip' abstraction.
The irq-chip abstraction is about describing and coding and IRQ controller
driver by mapping its raw hardware capabilities [and quirks, if needed] in a
straightforward way, without having to think about "IRQ flow"
(level/edge/etc.) type of details.
This stands in contrast with the current 'irq-type' model of genirq
architectures, which 'mixes' raw hardware capabilities with 'flow' details.
The patchset supports both types of irq controller designs at once, and
converts i386 and x86_64 to the new irq-chip design.
As a bonus side-effect of the irq-chip approach, chained interrupt controllers
(master/slave PIC constructs, etc.) are now supported by design as well.
The end result of this patchset intends to be simpler architecture-level code
and more consolidation between architectures.
We reused many bits of code and many concepts from Russell King's ARM IRQ
layer, the merging of which was one of the motivations for this patchset.
This patch:
rename desc->handler to desc->chip.
Originally i did not want to do this, because it's a big patch. But having
both "desc->handler", "desc->handle_irq" and "action->handler" caused a
large degree of confusion and made the code appear alot less clean than it
truly is.
I have also attempted a dual approach as well by introducing a
desc->chip alias - but that just wasnt robust enough and broke
frequently.
So lets get over with this quickly. The conversion was done automatically
via scripts and converts all the code in the kernel.
This renaming patch is the first one amongst the patches, so that the
remaining patches can stay flexible and can be merged and split up
without having some big monolithic patch act as a merge barrier.

There's a small period early in boot where we don't know which cpu we're
running on. That's ok, except that it means we have no paca, or more
correctly that our paca pointer points somewhere random.
So that we can safely call things like smp_processor_id(), we need a paca,
so just assume we're on cpu 0. No code should _write_ to the paca before
we've set the correct one up.
We setup the proper paca after we've scanned the flat device tree in

With this patch, kdump uses the firmware soft-reset NMI for two purposes:
1) Initiate the kdump (take a crash dump) by issuing a soft-reset.
2) Break a CPU out of a deadlock condition that is detected during kdump
processing.
When a soft-reset is initiated each CPU will enter
system_reset_exception() and set its corresponding bit in the global
bit-array cpus_in_sr then call die(). When die() finds the CPU's bit set
in cpu_in_sr crash_kexec() is called to initiate a crash dump. The first
CPU to enter crash_kexec() is called the "crashing CPU". All other CPUs
are "secondary CPUs". The secondary CPU's pass through to
crash_kexec_secondary() and sleep. The crashing CPU waits for all CPUs
to enter via soft-reset then boots the kdump kernel (see
crash_soft_reset_check())
When the system crashes due to a panic or exception, crash_kexec() is
called by panic() or die(). The crashing CPU sends an IPI to all other
CPUs to notify them of the pending shutdown. If a CPU is in a deadlock
or hung state with interrupts disabled, the IPI will not be delivered.
The result being, that the kdump kernel is not booted. This problem is
solved with the use of a firmware generated soft-reset. After the
crashing_cpu has issued the IPI, it waits for 10 sec for all CPUs to
enter crash_ipi_callback(). A CPU signifies its entry to
crash_ipi_callback() by setting its corresponding bit in the
cpus_in_crash bit array. After 10 sec, if one or more CPUs have not set
their bit in cpus_in_crash we assume that the CPU(s) is deadlocked. The
operator is then prompted to generate a soft-reset to break the
deadlock. Each CPU enters the soft reset handler as described above.
Two conditions must be handled at this point:
1) The system crashed because the operator generated a soft-reset. See
2) The system had crashed before the soft-reset was generated ( in the
case of a Panic or oops).
The first CPU to enter crash_kexec() uses the state of the kexec_lock to
determine this state. If kexec_lock is already held then condition 2 is
true and crash_kexec_secondary() is called, else; this CPU is flagged as
the crashing CPU, the kexec_lock is acquired and crash_kexec() proceeds
as described above.
Each additional CPUs responding to the soft-reset will pass through
crash_kexec() to kexec_secondary(). All secondary CPUs call
crash_ipi_callback() readying them self's for the shutdown. When ready
they clear their bit in cpus_in_sr. The crashing CPU waits in
kexec_secondary() until all other CPUs have cleared their bits in
cpus_in_sr. The kexec kernel boot is then started.

During kdump boot, noticed some machines checkstop on dma protection
fault for ongoing DMA left in the first kernel. Instead of initializing
TCE entries in iommu_init() for the kdump boot, this patch fixes this
issue by walking through the each TCE table and checks whether the
entries are in use by the first kernel. If so, reserve those entries by
setting the corresponding bit in tbl->it_map such that these entries
will not be available for the kdump boot.
However it could be possible that all TCE entries might be used up due
to the driver bug that does continuous mapping. My observation is around
1700 TCE entries are used on some systems (Ex: P4) at some point of
time during kdump boot and saving dump (either write into the disk or
sending to remote machine). Hence, this patch will make sure that
minimum of 2048 entries will be available such that kdump boot could be
successful in some cases.

With Goto-san's patch, we can add new pgdat/node at runtime. I'm now
considering node-hot-add with cpu + memory on ACPI.
I found acpi container, which describes node, could evaluate cpu before
memory. This means cpu-hot-add occurs before memory hot add.
In most part, cpu-hot-add doesn't depend on node hot add. But register_cpu(),
which creates symbolic link from node to cpu, requires that node should be
onlined before register_cpu(). When a node is onlined, its pgdat should be
there.
This patch-set holds off creating symbolic link from node to cpu
until node is onlined.
This removes node arguments from register_cpu().
Now, register_cpu() requires 'struct node' as its argument. But the array of
struct node is now unified in driver/base/node.c now (By Goto's node hotplug
patch). We can get struct node in generic way. So, this argument is not
necessary now.
This patch also guarantees add cpu under node only when node is onlined. It
is necessary for node-hot-add vs. cpu-hot-add patch following this.
Moreover, register_cpu calculates cpu->node_id by cpu_to_node() without regard
to its 'struct node *root' argument. This patch removes it.
Also modify callers of register_cpu()/unregister_cpu, whose args are changed
by register-cpu-remove-node-struct patch.

Avoid duplication of the syscall table for the cell platform. Based on an
idea from David Woodhouse.

This is a first version of support for the Cell BE "Reliability,
Availability and Serviceability" features.
It doesn't yet handle some of the RAS interrupts (the ones described in
iic_is/iic_irr), I'm still working on a proper way to expose these. They
are essentially a cascaded controller by themselves (sic !) though I may
just handle them locally to the iic driver. I need also to sync with
David Erb on the way he hooked in the performance monitor interrupt.
So that's all for 2.6.17 and I'll do more work on that with my rework of
the powerpc interrupt layer that I'm hacking on at the moment.
