The Documentation/memory-barriers.txt document requires that atomic operations that return a value act as a memory barrier both before and after the actual atomic operation. Our current implementation doesn't guarantee this. More specifically, while a load following the isync can not be issued before stwcx. has completed, that completion doesn't architecturally means that the result of stwcx. is visible to other processors (or any previous stores for that matter) (typically, the other processors L1 caches can still hold the old value). This has caused an actual crash in RCU torture testing on Power 7 This fixes it by changing those atomic ops to use new macros instead of RELEASE/ACQUIRE barriers, called ATOMIC_ENTRY and ATMOIC_EXIT barriers, which are then defined respectively to lwsync and sync. I haven't had a chance to measure the performance impact (or rather what I measured with kernel compiles is in the noise, I yet have to find a more precise benchmark) Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Acked-by: Paul E.

Recent binutils refuses to assemble AltiVec opcodes when in e500/SPE mode, as some of those opcodes alias the "SPE" instructions. This triggers an ancient binutils version check even when building a kernel with CONFIG_ALTIVEC disabled. In theory, the check could be conditionalized on CONFIG_ALTIVEC, but in practice it has long outlived its utility. It is virtually impossible to find binutils older than 2.12.1 (released 2002) in the wild anymore. Even ancient RedHat Enterprise Linux 4 has binutils-2.14. To fix the kernel build when done natively on e500 systems with this new binutils, the test is simply removed.

With the introduction of CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_REGS user space debug is broken on Book-E 64-bit parts that support delayed debug events. When switch_booke_debug_regs() sets DBCR0 we'll start getting debug events as MSR_DE is also set and we aren't able to handle debug events from kernel space. We can remove the hack that always enables MSR_DE and loads up DBCR0 and just utilize switch_booke_debug_regs() to get user space debug working again. We still need to handle critical/debug exception stacks & proper save/restore of state for those exception levles to support debug events from kernel space like we have on 32-bit.

We had an existing ifdef for 4xx & BOOKE processors that got changed to CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_REGS. The define has nothing to do with CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_REGS. The define really should be: #if defined(CONFIG_4xx) || defined(CONFIG_BOOKE) and not #ifdef CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_REGS Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Fixes the PS3 bootup hang introduced in 3.0-rc1 by: commit 317f3941 sched: Move the second half of ttwu() to the remote cpu Move the PS3's LV1 EOI call lv1_end_of_interrupt_ext() from ps3_chip_eoi() to ps3_get_irq() for IPI messages. If lv1_send_event_locally() is called between a previous call to lv1_send_event_locally() and the coresponding call to lv1_end_of_interrupt_ext() the second event will not be delivered to the target cpu. The PS3's SMP IPIs are implemented using lv1_send_event_locally(), so if two IPI messages of the same type are sent to the same target in a relatively short period of time the second IPI event can become lost when lv1_end_of_interrupt_ext() is called from ps3_chip_eoi().

The trace_hardirqs_off will use CALLER_ADDR0 and CALLER_ADDR1. If an exception occurs in user mode, there is only one stack frame on the stack and accessing the CALLER_ADDR1 will causes the following call trace. So we create a dummy stack frame to make trace_hardirqs_off happy.

kdump fails because we try to execute an HV only instruction. Feature fixups are being applied after we copy the exception vectors down to 0 so they miss out on any updates. We have always had this issue but it only became critical in v3.0 when we added CFAR support (breaks POWER5) and v3.1 when we added POWERNV (breaks everyone).

I had to debug a strange situation where all manner of things were failing. SMT threads, storage and network were all completely broken. The root cause was we couldn't find enough memory to instantiate RTAS - this was a network install so the initrd was huge. Instead of limping along and failing in mysterious ways we should just panic up front if RTAS exists and we can't allocate space for it.

* git://github.com/rustyrussell/linux: virtio-pci: fix use after free
-
Michael S. Tsirkin authored
Commit 31a3ddda introduced a use after free in virtio-pci. The main issue is that the release method signals removal of the virtio device, while remove signals removal of the pci device. For example, on driver removal or hot-unplug, virtio_pci_release_dev is called before virtio_pci_remove. We then might get a crash as virtio_pci_remove tries to use the device freed by virtio_pci_release_dev. We allocate/free all resources together with the pci device, so we can leave the release method empty. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

After commit e978aa7d ("cpuidle: Move dev->last_residency update to driver enter routine; remove dev->last_state") setting acpi_idle_suspend to 1 by acpi_processor_suspend() causes the ACPI cpuidle routines to return error codes continuously, which in turn causes cpuidle to lock up (hard). However, acpi_idle_suspend doesn't appear to be useful for any particular purpose (it's racy and doesn't really provide any real protection), so it can be removed, which makes the problem go away.
