      aio: lookup_ioctx can return the wrong value when looking up a bogus context · 65c24491
      Jeff Moyer authored
      The libaio test harness turned up a problem whereby lookup_ioctx on a
      bogus io context was returning the 1 valid io context from the list
      (harness/cases/3.p).
      
      Because of that, an extra put_iocontext was done, and when the process
      exited, it hit a BUG_ON in the put_iocontext macro called from exit_aio
      (since we expect a users count of 1 and instead get 0).
      
      The problem was introduced by "aio: make the lookup_ioctx() lockless"
      (commit abf137dd).
      
      Thanks to Zach for pointing out that hlist_for_each_entry_rcu will not
      return with a NULL tpos at the end of the loop, even if the entry was
      not found.

      eventfd: remove fput() call from possible IRQ context · 87c3a86e
      Davide Libenzi authored
      Remove a source of fput() call from inside IRQ context.  Myself, like Eric,
      wasn't able to reproduce an fput() call from IRQ context, but Jeff said he was
      able to, with the attached test program.  Independently from this, the bug is
      conceptually there, so we might be better off fixing it.  This patch adds an
      optimization similar to the one we already do on ->ki_filp, on ->ki_eventfd.
      Playing with ->f_count directly is not pretty in general, but the alternative
      here would be to add a brand new delayed fput() infrastructure, that I'm not
      sure is worth it.

      function-graph: show binary events as comments · 5087f8d2
      Steven Rostedt authored
      With the added TRACE_EVENT macro, the events no longer appear in
      the function graph tracer. This was because the function graph
      did not know how to display the entries. The graph tracer was
      only aware of its own entries and the printk entries.
      
      By using the event call back feature, the graph tracer can now display
      the events.
      
       # echo irq > /debug/tracing/set_event
      
      Which can show:

      tracing: remove recording function depth from trace_printk · 40ce74f1
      Steven Rostedt authored
      The function depth in trace_printk was to facilitate the function
      graph output. Now that the function graph calculates the depth within
      the trace output, we no longer need to record the depth when the
      trace_printk is called.

      function-graph: calculate function depth within function graph tracer · 2fbcdb35
      Steven Rostedt authored
      Currently, the function graph tracer depends on the trace_printk
      to record the depth. All the information is already there in the trace
      to calculate function depth, with the exception of having the printk
      be the first item. But as soon as a entry or exit is reached, then
      we know the depth.
      
      This patch changes the iter->private data from recording a per cpu
      last_pid, to a structure that holds both the last_pid and the current
      depth. This data is used to determine the function depth for the
      printks.

      Fix race in create_empty_buffers() vs __set_page_dirty_buffers() · a8e7d49a
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Nick Piggin noticed this (very unlikely) race between setting a page
      dirty and creating the buffers for it - we need to hold the mapping
      private_lock until we've set the page dirty bit in order to make sure
      that create_empty_buffers() might not build up a set of buffers without
      the dirty bits set when the page is dirty.
      
      I doubt anybody has ever hit this race (and it didn't solve the issue
      Nick was looking at), but as Nick says: "Still, it does appear to solve
      a real race, which we should close."

      Add '-fwrapv' to gcc CFLAGS · 68df3755
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This makes sure that gcc doesn't try to optimize away wrapping
      arithmetic, which the kernel occasionally uses for overflow testing, ie
      things like
      
      	if (ptr + offset < ptr)
      
      which technically is undefined for non-unsigned types. See
      
      	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12597
      
      for details.
      
      Not all versions of gcc support it, so we need to make it conditional
      (it looks like it was introduced in gcc-3.4).

      tracing/ring-buffer: fix non cpu hotplug case · 3bf832ce
      Frederic Weisbecker authored
      Impact: fix warning with irqsoff tracer
      
      The ring buffer allocates its buffers on pre-smp time (early_initcall).
      It means that, at first, only the boot cpu buffer is allocated and
      the ring-buffer cpumask only has the boot cpu set (cpu_online_mask).
      
      Later, the secondary cpu will show up and the ring-buffer will be notified
      about this event: the appropriate buffer will be allocated and the cpumask
      will be updated.
      
      Unfortunately, if !CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG, the ring-buffer will not be
      notified about the secondary cpus, meaning that the cpumask will have
      only the cpu boot set, and only one cpu buffer allocated.
      
      We fix that by using cpu_possible_mask if !CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG.
      
      This patch fixes the following warning with irqsoff tracer running:

      Because this tracer may try to swap two cpu ring buffers for an

      This patch might also fix a fair loss of traces due to unallocated buffers
      for secondary cpus.

      tracing: give easy way to clear trace buffer · 4acd4d00
      Steven Rostedt authored
      There is currently no easy way to clear the trace buffer. Currently
      the only way is to change the current tracer.
      
      This patch lets the user clear the trace buffer by simply writing
      into the trace files.
      
       echo > /debug/tracing/trace
      
      or to clear a single cpu (i.e. for CPU 1):
      
       echo > /debug/tracing/per_cpu/cpu1/trace

      [S390] make page table upgrade work again · 0fb1d9bc
      Martin Schwidefsky authored
      After TASK_SIZE now gives the current size of the address space the
      upgrade of a 64 bit process from 3 to 4 levels of page table  needs
      to use the arch_mmap_check hook to catch large mmap lengths. The
      get_unmapped_area* functions need to check for -ENOMEM from the
      arch_get_unmapped_area*, upgrade the page table and retry.

      [S390] make page table walking more robust · f481bfaf
      Martin Schwidefsky authored
      Make page table walking on s390 more robust. The current code requires
      that the pgd/pud/pmd/pte loop is only done for address ranges that are
      below the end address of the last vma of the address space. But this
      is not always true, e.g. the generic page table walker does not guarantee
      this. Change TASK_SIZE/TASK_SIZE_OF to reflect the current size of the
      address space. This makes the generic page table walker happy but it
      breaks the upgrade of a 3 level page table to a 4 level page table.
      To make the upgrade work again another fix is required.

      [S390] Dont check for pfn_valid() in uaccess_pt.c · 2887fc5a
      Gerald Schaefer authored
      pfn_valid() actually checks for a valid struct page and not for a
      valid pfn. Using xip mappings w/o struct pages, this will result in
      -EFAULT returned by the (page table walk) user copy functions,
      even though there is valid memory. Those user copy functions don't
      need a struct page, so this patch just removes the pfn_valid() check.

      [S390] __div64_31 broken for CONFIG_MARCH_G5 · 4fa81ed2
      Martin Schwidefsky authored
      The implementation of __div64_31 for G5 machines is broken. The comments
      in __div64_31 are correct, only the code does not do what the comments
      say. The part "If the remainder has overflown subtract base and increase
      the quotient" is only partially realized, the base is subtracted correctly
      but the quotient is only increased if the dividend had the last bit set.
      Using the correct instruction fixes the problem.

      During the selftest of irqsoff tracer, we do that:
      
      	/* disable interrupts for a bit */
      	local_irq_disable();
      	udelay(100);
      	local_irq_enable();
      	/* stop the tracing. */
      	tracing_stop();
      	/* check both trace buffers */
      	ret = trace_test_buffer(tr, NULL);
      
      If a callsite performs a new max delay with irqs off just after
      tracing_stop, update_max_tr_single() -> ring_buffer_swap_cpu()
      will be called with the buffers disabled by tracing_stop(), hence
      the warning, then ring_buffer_swap_cpu() return -EAGAIN and
      update_max_tr_single() complains.
      
      Fix it by also stopping the tracer before stopping the tracing globally.
      A similar situation can happen with preemptoff and preemptirqsoff tracers
      where we apply the same fix.
