This first happened with a gcc function, _cpp_lex_token, that has the usual jumps: │1159e6c: ↓ jne 115aa32 <_cpp_lex_token@@Base+0xf92> I.e. jumps to a label inside that function (_cpp_lex_token), and those works, but also this kind: │1159e8b: ↓ jne c469be <cpp_named_operator2name@@Base+0xa72> I.e. jumps to another function, outside _cpp_lex_token, which are not being correctly handled generating as a side effect references to ab->offset[] entries that are set to NULL, so to make this code more robust, check that here. A proper fix for will be put in place, looking at the function name right after the '<' token and probably treating this like a 'call' instruction. For now just don't draw the arrow.

On older (e.g. v4.4) kernels, an annoying fallback message can be observed in 'perf top': ┌─Warning:──────────────────────┐ │fall back to non-overwrite mode│ │ │ │ │ │Press any key... │ └───────────────────────────────┘ The 'perf top' utility has been changed to overwrite mode since commit ebebbf08 ("perf top: Switch default mode to overwrite mode"). For older kernels which don't have overwrite mode support, 'perf top' will fall back to non-overwrite mode and print out the fallback message using ui__warning(), which needs user's input to close. The fallback message is not critical for end users. Turning it to debug message which is printed when running with -vv.

Re-enable deep flush so that users always have a way to be sure that a write makes it all the way out to media. Writes from the PMEM driver always arrive at the NVDIMM since movnt is used to bypass the cache, and the driver relies on the ADR (Asynchronous DRAM Refresh) mechanism to flush write buffers on power failure. The Deep Flush mechanism is there to explicitly write buffers to protect against (rare) ADR failure. This change prevents a regression in deep flush behavior so that applications can continue to depend on fsync() as a mechanism to trigger deep flush in the filesystem-DAX case.

Filesystem-DAX is incompatible with 'longterm' page pinning. Without page cache indirection a DAX mapping maps filesystem blocks directly. This means that the filesystem must not modify a file's block map while any page in a mapping is pinned. In order to prevent the situation of userspace holding of filesystem operations indefinitely, disallow 'longterm' Filesystem-DAX mappings. RDMA has the same conflict and the plan there is to add a 'with lease' mechanism to allow the kernel to notify userspace that the mapping is being torn down for block-map maintenance. Perhaps something similar can be put in place for vfio. Note that xfs and ext4 still report: "DAX enabled. Warning: EXPERIMENTAL, use at your own risk" ...at mount time, and resolving the dax-dma-vs-truncate problem is one of the last hurdles to remove that designation.

When run under QEMU, calling mfctl(16) creates some overhead because the qemu timer has to be scaled and moved into the register. This patch reduces the number of calls to mfctl(16) by moving the calls out of the loops. Additionally, increase the minimal time interval to 8000 cycles instead of 500 to compensate possible QEMU delays when delivering interrupts.

The architecture specification says (for 64-bit systems): PDC is a per processor resource, and operating system software must be prepared to manage separate pointers to PDCE_PROC for each processor. The address of PDCE_PROC for the monarch processor is stored in the Page Zero location MEM_PDC. The address of PDCE_PROC for each non-monarch processor is passed in gr26 when PDCE_RESET invokes OS_RENDEZ. Currently we still use one PDC for all CPUs, but in case we face a machine which is following the specification let's warn about it. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

The change to flush_kernel_vmap_range() wasn't sufficient to avoid the SMP stalls. The problem is some drivers call these routines with interrupts disabled. Interrupts need to be enabled for flush_tlb_all() and flush_cache_all() to work. This version adds checks to ensure interrupts are not disabled before calling routines that need IPI interrupts. When interrupts are disabled, we now drop into slower code. The attached change fixes the ordering of cache and TLB flushes in several cases. When we flush the cache using the existing PTE/TLB entries, we need to flush the TLB after doing the cache flush. We don't need to do this when we flush the entire instruction and data caches as these flushes don't use the existing TLB entries. The same is true for tmpalias region flushes. The flush_kernel_vmap_range() and invalidate_kernel_vmap_range() routines have been updated. Secondly, we added a new purge_kernel_dcache_range_asm() routine to pacache.S and use it in invalidate_kernel_vmap_range(). Nominally, purges are faster than flushes as the cache lines don't have to be written back to memory. Hopefully, this is sufficient to resolve the remaining problems due to cache speculation. So far, testing indicates that this is the case. I did work up a patch using tmpalias flushes, but there is a performance hit because we need the physical address for each page, and we also need to sequence access to the tmpalias flush code. This increases the probability of stalls. Signed-off-by: John David Anglin <dave.anglin@bell.net> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 4.9+ Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

The 'defconfig_list' is a weird attribute. If the '.config' is missing, conf_read_simple() iterates over all visible defaults, then it uses the first one for which fopen() succeeds. config DEFCONFIG_LIST string depends on !UML option defconfig_list default "/lib/modules/$UNAME_RELEASE/.config" default "/etc/kernel-config" default "/boot/config-$UNAME_RELEASE" default "$ARCH_DEFCONFIG" default "arch/$ARCH/defconfig" However, like other symbols, the first visible default is always written out to the .config file. This might be different from what has been actually used. For example, on my machine, the third one "/boot/config-$UNAME_RELEASE" is opened, like follows: $ rm .config $ make oldconfig 2>/dev/null scripts/kconfig/conf --oldconfig Kconfig # # using defaults found in /boot/config-4.4.0-112-generic # * * Restart config... * * * IRQ subsystem * Expose irq internals in debugfs (GENERIC_IRQ_DEBUGFS) [N/y/?] (NEW) However, the resulted .config file contains the first one since it is visible: $ grep CONFIG_DEFCONFIG_LIST .config CONFIG_DEFCONFIG_LIST="/lib/modules/$UNAME_RELEASE/.config" In order to stop confusing people, prevent this CONFIG option from being written to the .config file.
