Actually, on 386, cmpxchg and cmpxchg_local fall back on
cmpxchg_386_u8/16/32: it disables interruptions around non atomic
updates to mimic the cmpxchg behavior.
The comment:
/* Poor man's cmpxchg for 386. Unsuitable for SMP */
already present in cmpxchg_386_u32 tells much about how this cmpxchg
implementation should not be used in a SMP context. However, the cmpxchg_local
can perfectly use this fallback, since it only needs to be atomic wrt the local
cpu.
This patch adds a cmpxchg_486_u64 and uses it as a fallback for cmpxchg64
and cmpxchg64_local on 80386 and 80486.
Q:
but why is it called cmpxchg_486 when the other functions are called
A:
Because the standard cmpxchg is missing only on 386, but cmpxchg8b is
missing both on 386 and 486.
Citing Intel's Instruction set reference:
cmpxchg:
This instruction is not supported on Intel processors earlier than the
Intel486 processors.
cmpxchg8b:
This instruction encoding is not supported on Intel processors earlier
than the Pentium processors.
Q:
What's the reason to have cmpxchg64_local on 32 bit architectures?
Without that need all this would just be a few simple defines.
A:
cmpxchg64_local on 32 bits architectures takes unsigned long long
parameters, but cmpxchg_local only takes longs. Since we have cmpxchg8b
to execute a 8 byte cmpxchg atomically on pentium and +, it makes sense
to provide a flavor of cmpxchg and cmpxchg_local using this instruction.
Also, for 32 bits architectures lacking the 64 bits atomic cmpxchg, it
makes sense _not_ to define cmpxchg64 while cmpxchg could still be
available.
Moreover, the fallback for cmpxchg8b on i386 for 386 and 486 is a
However, cmpxchg64_local will be emulated by disabling interrupts on all
architectures where it is not supported atomically.
Therefore, we *could* turn cmpxchg64_local into a cmpxchg_local, but it
would make the 386/486 fallbacks ugly, make its design different from
cmpxchg/cmpxchg64 (which really depends on atomic operations and cannot
be emulated) and require the __cmpxchg_local to be expressed as a macro
rather than an inline function so the parameters would not be fixed to
unsigned long long in every case.
So I think cmpxchg64_local makes sense there, but I am open to
suggestions.
Q:
Are there any callers?
A:
I am actually using it in LTTng in my timestamping code. I use it to
work around CPUs with asynchronous TSCs. I need to update 64 bits
values atomically on this 32 bits architecture.

The fs_base and gs_base fields are available in user_regs_struct.
But reading these via ptrace (PTRACE_GETREGS or PTRACE_PEEKUSR) does
not give a reliably useful value. The thread_struct fields are 0
when do_arch_prctl decided to use a GDT slot instead of MSR_FS_BASE,
which it does for a value under 1<<32.
This changes ptrace access to fs_base and gs_base to work like
PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL does. That is, it reads the base address that
user-mode memory access using the fs/gs instruction prefixes will
use, regardless of how it's being implemented in the kernel. The
MSR vs GDT is an implementation detail that is pretty much hidden
from userland in the actual using, and there is no reason that
ptrace should give the internal implementation picture rather than
the user-mode semantic picture. In the case of setting the value,
this can implicitly change the fsindex/gsindex value (also
separately in user_regs_struct), which is what happens when the
thread calls arch_prctl itself. In a PTRACE_SETREGS, the fs_base
change will come after the fsindex change due to the order of the
struct, and so a change the debugger made to fs_base will have the
effect intended, another part of the user_regs_struct will now
differ when read back from what the debugger wrote.
This makes PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL obsolete. We could consider declaring
it deprecated and removing it one day, though there is no hurry.
For the foreseeable future, debuggers have to assume an old kernel
that does not report reliable fs_base/gs_base values in user_regs_struct
and stick to PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL anyway.

sysenter_return field to struct thread_info, as 32-bit has. There
is no observable effect from this yet. It makes the assembly code
independent of the 32-bit vDSO mapping address, paving the way for
making the vDSO address vary as it does on the 32-bit kernel.

across 32-bit and 64-bit builds. It's a purely cosmetic change for now,
but it paves the way for consolidating the 32-bit vDSO builds.

Randomize the location of the heap (brk) for i386 and x86_64. The range is
randomized in the range starting at current brk location up to 0x02000000
offset for both architectures. This, together with
pie-executable-randomization.patch and
pie-executable-randomization-fix.patch, should make the address space
randomization on i386 and x86_64 complete.
Arjan says:
This is known to break older versions of some emacs variants, whose dumper
code assumed that the last variable declared in the program is equal to the
start of the dynamically allocated memory region.
(The dumper is the code where emacs effectively dumps core at the end of it's
compilation stage; this coredump is then loaded as the main program during
normal use)
iirc this was 5 years or so; we found this way back when I was at RH and we
first did the security stuff there (including this brk randomization). It
wasn't all variants of emacs, and it got fixed as a result (I vaguely remember
that emacs already had code to deal with it for other archs/oses, just
ifdeffed wrongly).
It's a rare and wrong assumption as a general thing, just on x86 it mostly
happened to be true (but to be honest, it'll break too if gcc does
something fancy or if the linker does a non-standard order). Still its
something we should at least document.
Note 2: afaik it only broke the emacs *build*. I'm not 100% sure about that
(it IS 5 years ago) though.

This patch removes the extern struct resource declarations for
data_resource, code_resource and bss_resource on x86 and declares that
three structures as static as done on other architectures like IA64.
On i386, these structures are moved to setup_32.c (from e820_32.c) because
that's code that is not specific to e820 and also required on EFI systems.
That makes the "extern" reference superfluous.
On x86_64, data_resource, code_resource and bss_resource are passed to
e820_reserve_resources() as arguments just as done on i386 and IA64. That
also avoids the "extern" reference and it's possible to make it static.

#include <io_ports.h> which provides PIC_{MASTER,SLAVE}_{IMR,CMD}
Adding these two includes and using those half dozen or so definitions
removed 140+ lines of diffs between i8259_32.c and i8259_64.c, thus
making it easier for the real substantitive differences between them to
show up, and hopefully therefore making it easier to eventually merge

cf http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/10/3/41
To summarize: on Linux, SA_ONSTACK decides whether you are already on the
signal stack based on the value of the SP at the time of a signal. If
you are not already inside the range, you are not "on the signal stack"
and so the new signal handler frame starts over at the base of the signal
stack.
sigaltstack (and sigstack before it) was invented in BSD. There, the
SA_ONSTACK behavior has always been different. It uses a kernel state
flag to decide, rather than the SP value. When you first take an
SA_ONSTACK signal and switch to the alternate signal stack, it sets the
SS_ONSTACK flag in the thread's sigaltstack state in the kernel.
Thereafter you are "on the signal stack" and don't switch SP before
pushing a handler frame no matter what the SP value is. Only when you
sigreturn from the original handler context do you clear the SS_ONSTACK
flag so that a new handler frame will start over at the base of the
alternate signal stack.
The undesireable effect of the Linux behavior is that an overflow of the
alternate signal stack can not only go undetected, but lead to a ring
buffer effect of clobbering the original handler frame at the base of the
signal stack for each successive signal that comes just after the
overflow. This is what Shi Weihua's test case demonstrates. Normally
this does not come up because of the signal mask, but the test case uses
SA_NODEFER for its SIGSEGV handler.
The other subtle part of the existing Linux semantics is that a simple
longjmp out of a signal handler serves to take you off the signal stack
in a safe and reliable fashion without having used sigreturn (nor having
just returned from the handler normally, which means the same). After
the longjmp (or even informal stack switching not via any proper libc or
kernel interface), the alternate signal stack stands ready to be used
again.
A paranoid program would allocate a PROT_NONE red zone around its
alternate signal stack. Then a small overflow would trigger a SIGSEGV in
handler setup, and be fatal (core dump) whether or not SIGSEGV is
blocked. As with thread stack red zones, that cannot catch all overflows
(or underflows). e.g., a local array as large as page size allocated in
a function called from a handler, but not actually touched before more
calls push more stack, could cause an overflow that silently pushes into
some unrelated allocated pages.
The BSD behavior does not do anything in particular about overflow. But
it does at least avoid the wraparound or "ring buffer effect", so you'll
just get a straightforward all-out overflow down your address space past
the low end of the alternate signal stack. I don't know what the BSD
behavior is for longjmp out of an SA_ONSTACK handler.
The POSIX wording relating to sigaltstack is pretty minimal. I don't
think it speaks to this issue one way or another. (The program that
overflows its stack is clearly in undefined behavior territory of one
sort or another anyhow.)
Given the longjmp issue and the potential for highly subtle complications
in existing programs relying on this in arcane ways deep in their code, I
am very dubious about changing the behavior to the BSD style persistent
flag. I think Shi Weihua's patches have a similar effect by tracking the
SP used in the last handler setup.
I think it would be sensible for the signal handler setup code to detect
when it would itself be causing a stack overflow. Maybe something like
the following patch (untested). This issue exists in the same way on all
machines, so ideally they would all do a similar check.
When it's the handler function itself or its callees that cause the
overflow, rather than the signal handler frame setup alone crossing the
boundary, this still won't help. But I don't see any way to distinguish
that from the valid longjmp case.

x86: provide a DMI based port 0x80 I/O delay override.
Certain (HP) laptops experience trouble from our port 0x80 I/O delay
writes. This patch provides for a DMI based switch to the "alternate
diagnostic port" 0xed (as used by some BIOSes as well) for these.
David P. Reed confirmed that port 0xed works for him and provides a
proper delay. The symptoms of _not_ working are a hanging machine,
with "hwclock" use being a direct trigger.
Earlier versions of this attempted to simply use udelay(2), with the
2 being a value tested to be a nicely conservative upper-bound with
help from many on the linux-kernel mailinglist but that approach has
two problems.
First, pre-loops_per_jiffy calibration (which is post PIT init while
some implementations of the PIT are actually one of the historically
problematic devices that need the delay) udelay() isn't particularly
well-defined. We could initialise loops_per_jiffy conservatively (and
based on CPU family so as to not unduly delay old machines) which
would sort of work, but...
Second, delaying isn't the only effect that a write to port 0x80 has.
It's also a PCI posting barrier which some devices may be explicitly
or implicitly relying on. Alan Cox did a survey and found evidence
that additionally some drivers may be racy on SMP without the bus
locking outb.
Switching to an inb() makes the timing too unpredictable and as such,
this DMI based switch should be the safest approach for now. Any more
invasive changes should get more rigid testing first. It's moreover
only very few machines with the problem and a DMI based hack seems
to fit that situation.
This also introduces a command-line parameter "io_delay" to override
the DMI based choice again:
io_delay=<standard|alternate>
where "standard" means using the standard port 0x80 and "alternate"
port 0xed.
This retains the udelay method as a config (CONFIG_UDELAY_IO_DELAY) and
command-line ("io_delay=udelay") choice for testing purposes as well.
This does not change the io_delay() in the boot code which is using
the same port 0x80 I/O delay but those do not appear to be a problem
as David P. Reed reported the problem was already gone after using the
udelay version. He moreover reported that booting with "acpi=off" also
fixed things and seeing as how ACPI isn't touched until after this DMI
based I/O port switch I believe it's safe to leave the ones in the boot
code be.
The DMI strings from David's HP Pavilion dv9000z are in there already
and we need to get/verify the DMI info from other machines with the
problem, notably the HP Pavilion dv6000z.
This patch is partly based on earlier patches from Pavel Machek and
David P. Reed.

Use HR-timers (when available) to deliver an accurate preemption tick.
The regular scheduler tick that runs at 1/HZ can be too coarse when nice
level are used. The fairness system will still keep the cpu utilisation 'fair'
by then delaying the task that got an excessive amount of CPU time but try to
minimize this by delivering preemption points spot-on.
The average frequency of this extra interrupt is sched_latency / nr_latency.
Which need not be higher than 1/HZ, its just that the distribution within the
sched_latency period is important.

Replace all lock_cpu_hotplug/unlock_cpu_hotplug from the kernel and use
get_online_cpus and put_online_cpus instead as it highlights the
refcount semantics in these operations.
The new API guarantees protection against the cpu-hotplug operation, but
it doesn't guarantee serialized access to any of the local data
structures. Hence the changes needs to be reviewed.
In case of pseries_add_processor/pseries_remove_processor, use
cpu_maps_update_begin()/cpu_maps_update_done() as we're modifying the
cpu_present_map there.

This patch reorganizes the way suspend and resume notifications are
sent to drivers. The major changes are that now the PM core acquires
every device semaphore before calling the methods, and calls to
device_add() during suspends will fail, while calls to device_del()
during suspends will block.
It also provides a way to safely remove a suspended device with the
help of the PM core, by using the device_pm_schedule_removal() callback
introduced specifically for this purpose, and updates two drivers (msr
and cpuid) that need to use it.

When we set the MFGPT timer tick, there is a chance that we'll
immediately assert an event. If for some reason the IRQ routing
for this clock has been setup for some other purpose, then we
could end up firing an interrupt into the SMM handler or worse.
This rearranges the timer tick init function to initalize the handler
before we set up the MFGPT clock to make sure that even if we get
an event, it will go to the handler.
Furthermore, in the handler we need to make sure that we clear the
event, even if the timer isn't running.

In the current code, RTC_AIE doesn't work if the RTC relies on
CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC because the code sets the RTC_AIE flag in
hpet_set_rtc_irq_bit(). The interrupt handles does accidentally check
for RTC_PIE and not RTC_AIE when comparing the time which was set in
hpet_set_alarm_time().
I now verified on a test system here that without the patch applied,
the attached test program fails on a system that has HPET with
2.6.24-rc7-default. That's not critical since I guess the problem has
been there for several kernel releases, but as the fix is quite
obvious.
Configuration is CONFIG_RTC=y and CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC=y.

Sometimes cpu_idle_wait gets stuck because it might miss CPUS that are
already in idle, have no tasks waiting to run and have no interrupts going
to them. This is common on bootup when switching cpu idle governors.
This patch gives those CPUS that don't check in an IPI kick.
Background:
-----------
I notice this while developing the mcount patches, that every once in a
while the system would hang. Looking deeper, the hang was always at boot
up when registering init_menu of the cpu_idle menu governor. Talking
with Thomas Gliexner, we discovered that one of the CPUS had no timer
events scheduled for it and it was in idle (running with NO_HZ). So the
CPU would not set the cpu_idle_state bit.
Hitting sysrq-t a few times would eventually route the interrupt to the
stuck CPU and the system would continue.
Note, I would have used the PDA isidle but that is set after the
cpu_idle_state bit is cleared, and would leave a window open where we
may miss being kicked.
hmm, looking closer at this, we still have a small race window between
clearing the cpu_idle_state and disabling interrupts (hence the RFC).
CPU0: CPU 1:
--------- ---------
cpu_idle_wait(): cpu_idle():
| __cpu_cpu_var(is_idle) = 1;
| if (__get_cpu_var(cpu_idle_state)) /* == 0 */
per_cpu(cpu_idle_state, 1) = 1; |
if (per_cpu(is_idle, 1)) /* == 1 */ |
smp_call_function(1) |
| receives ipi and runs do_nothing.
wait on map == empty idle();
/* waits forever */
So really we need interrupts off for most of this then. One might think
that we could simply clear the cpu_idle_state from do_nothing, but I'm
assuming that cpu_idle governors can be removed, and this might cause a
race that a governor might be used after the module was removed.
Venki said:
I think your RFC patch is the right solution here. As I see it, there is
no race with your RFC patch. As long as you call a dummy smp_call_function
on all CPUs, we should be OK. We can get rid of cpu_idle_state and the
current wait forever logic altogether with dummy smp_call_function. And so
there wont be any wait forever scenario.
The whole point of cpu_idle_wait() is to make all CPUs come out of idle
loop atleast once. The caller will use cpu_idle_wait something like this.
// Want to change idle handler
- Switch global idle handler to always present default_idle
- call cpu_idle_wait so that all cpus come out of idle for an instant
and stop using old idle pointer and start using default idle
- Change the idle handler to a new handler
- optional cpu_idle_wait if you want all cpus to start using the new
handler immediately.
Maybe the below 1s patch is safe bet for .24. But for .25, I would say we
just replace all complicated logic by simple dummy smp_call_function and
remove cpu_idle_state altogether.

ACPI and APM used "pm_active" to guarantee that
they would not be simultaneously active.
But pm_active was recently moved under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY,
so that without CONFIG_PM_LEGACY, pm_active became a NOP --
allowing ACPI and APM to both be simultaneously enabled.
This caused unpredictable results, including boot hangs.
Further, the code under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY is scheduled
for removal.
So replace pm_active with pm_flags.
pm_flags depends only on CONFIG_PM,
which is present for both CONFIG_APM and CONFIG_ACPI.

Andrew "Eagle Eye" Morton noticed that we use raw_local_save_flags()
instead of raw_local_irq_save(flags) in die(). This allows the
preemption of oopsing contexts - which is highly undesirable. It also
causes CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT to complain, as reported by Miles Lane.
this bug was introduced via:

- spin_lock_irqsave(&die.lock, flags);
+ __raw_spin_lock(&die.lock);
+ raw_local_save_flags(flags);
that is not a correct open-coding of spin_lock_irqsave(): both the
ordering is wrong (irqs should be disabled _first_), and the wrong
flags-saving API was used.

this is the tale of a full day spent debugging an ancient but elusive bug.
after booting up thousands of random .config kernels, i finally happened
to generate a .config that produced the following rare bootup failure
on 32-bit x86:
| ..TIMER: vector=0x31 apic1=0 pin1=2 apic2=-1 pin2=-1
| ..MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC
| ...trying to set up timer (IRQ0) through the 8259A ... failed.
| ...trying to set up timer as Virtual Wire IRQ... failed.
| ...trying to set up timer as ExtINT IRQ... failed :(.
| Kernel panic - not syncing: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work! Boot with apic=debug
| and send a report. Then try booting with the 'noapic' option
this bug has been reported many times during the years, but it was never
reproduced nor fixed.
the bug that i hit was extremely sensitive to .config details.
First i did a .config-bisection - suspecting some .config detail.
That led to CONFIG_X86_MCE: enabling X86_MCE magically made the bug disappear
and the system would boot up just fine.
Debugging my way through the MCE code ended up identifying two unlikely
candidates: the thing that made a real difference to the hang was that
X86_MCE did two printks:
Intel machine check architecture supported.
Intel machine check reporting enabled on CPU#1.
Adding the same printks to a !CONFIG_X86_MCE kernel made the bug go away!
this left timing as the main suspect: i experimented with adding various
udelay()s to the arch/x86/kernel/io_apic_32.c:check_timer() function, and
the race window turned out to be narrower than 30 microseconds (!).
That made debugging especially funny, debugging without having printk
ability before the bug hits is ... interesting ;-)
eventually i started suspecting IRQ activities - those are pretty much the
only thing that happen this early during bootup and have the timescale of
a few dozen microseconds. Also, check_timer() changes the IRQ hardware
in various creative ways, so the main candidate became IRQ0 interaction.
i've added a counter to track timer irqs (on which core they arrived, at
what exact time, etc.) and found that no timer IRQ would arrive after the
bug condition hits - even if we re-enable IRQ0 and re-initialize the i8259A,
but that we'd get a small number of timer irqs right around the time when we
call the check_timer() function.
Eventually i got the following backtrace triggered from debug code in the
timer interrupt:
...trying to set up timer as Virtual Wire IRQ... failed.
...trying to set up timer as ExtINT IRQ...

the spin_unlock() was called from init_8259A(). Wait ... we have an IRQ0
entry while we are in the middle of setting up the local APIC, the i8259A
and the PIT??
That is certainly not how it's supposed to work! check_timer() was supposed
to be called with irqs turned off - but this eroded away sometime in the
past. This code would still work most of the time because this code runs
very quickly, but just the right timing conditions are present and IRQ0
hits in this small, ~30 usecs window, timer irqs stop and the system does
not boot up. Also, given how early this is during bootup, the hang is
very deterministic - but it would only occur on certain machines (and
certain configs).
The fix was quite simple: disable/restore interrupts properly in this
function. With that in place the test-system now boots up just fine.
(64-bit x86 io_apic_64.c had the same bug.)
Phew! One down, only 1500 other kernel bugs are left ;-)
