* [PATCH] x86_64: Initialize powernow_data[] for all siblingsAndi Kleen2006-03-251-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | I got an oops on a dual core system because the lost tick handler called cpufreq_get() on core 1 and powernow tried to follow a NULL powernow_data[] pointer there. Initialize powernow_data for all cores of a CPU.

* [PATCH] x86_64: Implement early DMI scanningAndi Kleen2006-03-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | There are more and more cases where we need to know DMI information early to work around bugs. i386 already had early DMI scanning, but x86-64 didn't. Implement this now.

* [PATCH] x86_64: Clean up and tweak ACPI blacklist year codeAndi Kleen2006-03-251-0/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | - Move the core parser into dmi_scan.c. It can be useful for other subsystems too. - Differentiate between field doesn't exist and field is 0 or unparseable. The first case is likely an old BIOS with broken ACPI, the later is likely a slightly buggy BIOS where someone forget to edit the date. Don't blacklist in the later case.

However, it's pretty clear that the e820 entries are there for a reason. Probably they are a hack by the BIOS maintainers to keep Windows from stomping/moving that region, exactly because they want to keep the bridge where it is (or, it's actually for the BIOS itself - the BIOS tables are a horrid mess, and BIOS engineers are pretty hacky people: they'll add random entries to make their own broken algorithms do the "right thing"). > Starting from 2.6.13, kernel tries to resolve that sort of conflicts, > so that prefetch window of the bridge and the framebuffer memory behind > it get moved to 0x10000000. I think we could (and probably should) solve this another way: consider the ACPI "reserved regions" from the e820 map exactly the same way that we do other ACPI hints - they should restrict _new_ allocations, but not impact stuff we figure out on our own. Basically, right now we assign _unassigned_ resources at "fs_initcall" time. If we were to add in the e820 "reserved region" stuff before that (but after we've done PCI discovery), we'd probably do the right thing. Right now we do the e820 reserved regions very early indeed: we call "register_memory()" from setup_arch(). We could move at least part of it (the part that registers the resources) down a bit. Here's a test-patch. I'm not saying we should absolutely do this, but it might be interesting to try... Cc: "Antonino A.

The correct way of doing this is to test cpu_possible() or to use for_each_cpu(). This patch is a kernel-wide sweep of all instances of NR_CPUS. I found very few instances of this bug, if any. But the patch converts lots of open-coded test to use the preferred helper macros.

If this happens the user can reboot with the `pause_on_oops=<seconds>' option. It will allow the first oopsing CPU to print an oops record just a single time. Second oopsing attempts, or oopses on other CPUs will cause those CPUs to enter a tight loop until the specified number of seconds have elapsed. The patch implements the infrastructure generically in the expectation that architectures other than x86 will find it useful.

I am of the opinion that the above changeset is incomplete, i.e. it missed converting some previous uses of user_mode to user_mode_vm. While most of them could be considered just cosmetical, at least the one in die_nmi doesn't appear to be.

However, the way these currently get called it is basically impossible for them to actually be used by modules, as there is, on non-PAE configurationes, a good chance (the larger the module, the better) for the system to crash as a result. This is because the callback gets invoked (a) in the page fault path before the top level page table propagation gets carried out (hence a fault to propagate the top level page table entry/entries mapping to module's code/data would nest infinitly) and (b) in the NMI path, where nested faults must absolutely not happen, since otherwise the IRET from the nested fault re-enables NMIs, potentially resulting in nested NMI occurences. Besides the modular aspect, similar problems would even arise for in- kernel consumers of the API if they touched ioremap()ed or vmalloc()ed memory inside their handlers.

The things started from crashing somewhere after starting init, and for the last month - no boot at all, just "Uncompressing... OK, booting kernel", and silence. Early console didn't work too. With the latest releases this degraded into an infinite stream of the "Unknown interrupt or fault" messages. So today my patience ran out and I started to think how can I collect at least some info for the bug-report. Attached is the patch that allows to gather some valueable debug info on the problem by making an early console more useable. I can't properly test the patch, as the kernel still doesn't boot, so I'll explain it in details in a hope someone else can justify the intrusive changes. arch_hooks.h: added prototypes for setup_early_printk() and early_printk(). setup.c: killed wrong setup_early_printk() prototype. Moved setup_early_printk() a bit earlier, as it was not "early enough" to cover the bug I was fighting with. early_printk.c: made it to start printing from the bottom of the screen, otherwise the messages interfere with the ones of the boot-loader, so you can't read them.

The code can patch both SMP->UP and UP->SMP. The UP->SMP case is useful for CPU hotplug. With CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG enabled the code switches to UP at boot time and when the number of CPUs goes down to 1, and switches to SMP when the number of CPUs goes up to 2. Without CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG or on non-SMP-capable systems the code is patched once at boot time (if needed) and the tables are released afterwards. The changes in detail: * The current alternatives bits are moved to a separate file, the SMP alternatives code is added there. * The patch adds some new elf sections to the kernel: .smp_altinstructions like .altinstructions, also contains a list of alt_instr structs. .smp_altinstr_replacement like .altinstr_replacement, but also has some space to save original instruction before replaving it. .smp_locks list of pointers to lock prefixes which can be nop'ed out on UP. The first two are used to replace more complex instruction sequences such as spinlocks and semaphores. It would be possible to deal with the lock prefixes with that as well, but by handling them as special case the table sizes become much smaller. * The sections are page-aligned and padded up to page size, so they can be free if they are not needed. * Splitted the code to release init pages to a separate function and use it to release the elf sections if they are unused.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When on_each_cpu() runs the callback on other CPUs, it runs with local interrupts disabled. So we should run the function with local interrupts disabled on this CPU, too. And do the same for UP, so the callback is run in the same environment on both UP and SMP. (strictly it should do preempt_disable() too, but I think local_irq_disable is sufficiently equivalent). Also uninlines on_each_cpu(). softirq.c was the most appropriate file I could find, but it doesn't seem to justify creating a new file.
