      perf tools: Fix perf_event.h header usage · d030260a
      Stephane Eranian authored 
      This patch fixes the usage of the perf_event.h header file
between command modules and the supporting code in util.

It is necessary to ensure that ALL files use the SAME
perf_event.h header from the kernel source tree.

There were a couple of #include <linux/perf_event.h> mixed
with #include "../../perf_event.h".

This caused issues on some distros because of mismatch
in the layout of struct perf_event_attr. That eventually
led perf stat to segfault.

      x86: Avoid calling arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() at the same time · 554ec063
      Dongdong Deng authored 
      The spin_lock_debug/rcu_cpu_stall detector uses
trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() to dump cpu backtrace.
Therefore it is possible that trigger_all_cpu_backtrace()
could be called at the same time on different CPUs, which
triggers and 'unknown reason NMI' warning. The following case
illustrates the problem:

      CPU1                    CPU2                     ...   CPU N
                       trigger_all_cpu_backtrace()
                       set "backtrace_mask" to cpu mask
                               |
generate NMI interrupts  generate NMI interrupts       ...
    \                          |                               /
     \                         |                              /

The "backtrace_mask" will be cleaned by the first NMI interrupt
at nmi_watchdog_tick(), then the following NMI interrupts
generated by other cpus's arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() will
be taken as unknown reason NMI interrupts.

This patch uses a test_and_set to avoid the problem, and stop
the arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() from calling to avoid
dumping a double cpu backtrace info when there is already a
trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() in progress.

      sched: Change wait_for_completion_*_timeout() to return a signed long · 6bf41237
      NeilBrown authored 
      wait_for_completion_*_timeout() can return:

   0: if the wait timed out
 -ve: if the wait was interrupted
 +ve: if the completion was completed.

As they currently return an 'unsigned long', the last two cases
are not easily distinguished which can easily result in buggy
code, as is the case for the recently added
wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout() call in
net/sunrpc/cache.c

So change them both to return 'long'.  As MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT
is LONG_MAX, a large +ve return value should never overflow.

      x86: Fix APIC ID sizing bug on larger systems, clean up MAX_APICS confusion · cb2ded37
      Yinghai Lu authored 
      Found one x2apic pre-enabled system, x2apic_mode suddenly get
corrupted after register some cpus, when compiled
CONFIG_NR_CPUS=255 instead of 512.

It turns out that generic_processor_info() ==> phyid_set(apicid,
phys_cpu_present_map) causes the problem.

phys_cpu_present_map is sized by MAX_APICS bits, and pre-enabled
system some cpus have an apic id > 255.

The variable after phys_cpu_present_map may get corrupted
silently:

 ffffffff828e8420 B phys_cpu_present_map
 ffffffff828e8440 B apic_verbosity
 ffffffff828e8444 B local_apic_timer_c2_ok
 ffffffff828e8448 B disable_apic
 ffffffff828e844c B x2apic_mode
 ffffffff828e8450 B x2apic_disabled
 ffffffff828e8454 B num_processors
 ...

Actually phys_cpu_present_map is referenced via apic id, instead
index. We should use MAX_LOCAL_APIC instead MAX_APICS.

For 64-bit it will be 32768 in all cases. BSS will increase by 4k bytes
on 64-bit:

	text		data		bss		dec		filename
	21696943	4193748		12787712	38678403	vmlinux.before
	21696943	4193748		12791808	38682499	vmlinux.after

No change on 32bit.

Finally we can remove MAX_APCIS that was rather confusing.

      ipv4/route.c: respect prefsrc for local routes · 9fc3bbb4
      Joel Sing authored 
      The preferred source address is currently ignored for local routes,
which results in all local connections having a src address that is the
same as the local dst address. Fix this by respecting the preferred source
address when it is provided for local routes.

This bug can be demonstrated as follows:

 # ifconfig dummy0 192.168.0.1
 # ip route show table local | grep local.*dummy0
 local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0  proto kernel  scope host  src 192.168.0.1
 # ip route change table local local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0 \
     proto kernel scope host src 127.0.0.1
 # ip route show table local | grep local.*dummy0
 local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0  proto kernel  scope host  src 127.0.0.1

We now establish a local connection and verify the source IP
address selection:

 # nc -l 192.168.0.1 3128 &
 # nc 192.168.0.1 3128 &
 # netstat -ant | grep 192.168.0.1:3128.*EST
 tcp        0      0 192.168.0.1:3128        192.168.0.1:33228 ESTABLISHED
