[TCP]: Problem bug with sysctl_tcp_congestion_control function
From: "Sam Jansen" <sjansen@google.com>
sysctl_tcp_congestion_control seems to have a bug that prevents it
from actually calling the tcp_set_default_congestion_control
function. This is not so apparent because it does not return an error
and generally the /proc interface is used to configure the default TCP
congestion control algorithm. This is present in 2.6.18 onwards and
probably earlier, though I have not inspected 2.6.15--2.6.17.
sysctl_tcp_congestion_control calls sysctl_string and expects a successful
return code of 0. In such a case it actually sets the congestion control
algorithm with tcp_set_default_congestion_control. Otherwise, it returns the
value returned by sysctl_string. This was correct in 2.6.14, as sysctl_string
returned 0 on success. However, sysctl_string was updated to return 1 on
success around about 2.6.15 and sysctl_tcp_congestion_control was not updated.
Even though sysctl_tcp_congestion_control returns 1, do_sysctl_strategy
converts this return code to '0', so the caller never notices the error.

When the abstraction functions got added, conversion here was

in sync_cmos_clock, where it attempts to ensure that
update_persistent_clock is called very close to 500 msec. after a 1
second boundary (required by the PC RTC's spec). That typo referred to
"xtime" in one spot, rather than "now", which is derived from "xtime"

x86: fixup cpu_info array conversion
92cb7612aee39642d109b8d935ad265e602c0563 sets cpu_info->cpu_index to zero
for no reason. Referencing cpu_info->cpu_index now points always to CPU#0,
which is apparently not what we want.
Remove it.

It can happen that cpuinfo is displayed for CPUs that are not online or
even worse for CPUs not present at all. As an example, following was
shown for a "second" CPU of a single core K8 variant:
In cases where not all CPUs are brought up during
boot (e.g. using maxcpus and additional_cpus parameters)
mce_cpu_callback now returns NOTFIY_BAD because
for such CPUs cpu_data is not completely filled when
the notifier is called. Thus mce_create_device fails right
at its beginning:
if (!mce_available(&cpu_data[cpu]))
return -EIO;
As a quick fix I suggest to check boot_cpu_data for MCE.
To reproduce this regression:
(1) boot with maxcpus=2 addtional_cpus=2 on a 4 CPU x86-64 system
(2) # echo 1 >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
dmesg shows:
_cpu_up: attempt to bring up CPU 2 failed

x86: ignore the sys_getcpu() tcache parameter
dont use the vgetcpu tcache - it's causing problems with tasks
migrating, they'll see the old cache up to a jiffy after the
migration, further increasing the costs of the migration.
In the worst case they see a complete bogus information from
the tcache, when a sys_getcpu() call "invalidated" the cache
info by incrementing the jiffies _and_ the cpuid info in the
cache and the following vdso_getcpu() call happens after
vdso_jiffies have been incremented.

dirty page balancing: Get rid of broken unmapped_ratio logic
This code harks back to the days when we didn't count dirty mapped
pages, which led us to try to balance the number of dirty unmapped pages
by how much unmapped memory there was in the system.
That makes no sense any more, since now the dirty counts include the
mapped pages. Not to mention that the math doesn't work with HIGHMEM
machines anyway, and causes the unmapped_ratio to potentially turn
negative (which we do catch thanks to clamping it at a minimum value,
but I mention that as an indication of how broken the code is).
The code also was written at a time when the default dirty ratio was
much larger, and the unmapped_ratio logic effectively capped that large
dirty ratio a bit. Again, we've since lowered the dirty ratio rather
aggressively, further lessening the point of that code.

[MIPS] irq_cpu: use handle_percpu_irq handler to avoid dropping interrupts.
This matters to any sort of device that is wired to one of the CPU
interrupt pins on an SMP system. Typically the scenario is most easily
triggered with the count/compare timer interrupt where the same interrupt
number and thus irq_desc is used on each processor.
CPU A CPU B
do_IRQ()
generic_handle_irq()
handle_level_irq()
spin_lock(desc_lock)
set IRQ_INPROGRESS
spin_unlock(desc_lock)
do_IRQ()
generic_handle_irq()
handle_level_irq()
spin_lock(desc_lock)
IRQ_INPROGRESS set => bail out
spin_lock(desc_lock)
clear IRQ_INPROGRESS
spin_unlock(desc_lock)
In case of the cp0 compare interrupt this means the interrupt will be
acked and not handled or re-armed on CPU b, so there won't be any timer
interrupt until the count register wraps around.
With kernels 2.6.20 ... 2.6.23 we usually were lucky that things were just
working right on VSMP because the count registers are synchronized on
bootup so it takes something that disables interrupts for a long time on
one processor to trigger this one.
For scenarios where an interrupt is multicasted or broadcasted over several
CPUs the existing code was safe and the fix will break it. There is no
way to know in the interrupt controller code because it is abstracted from
the platform code. I think we do not have such a setup currently, so this
should be ok.

[MIPS] Sibyte: Stop timers before programming next even.
We have no guarantee by the generic time code that the timer is stopped
when the ->next_event method is called. Modifying the Timer Initial Count
register while the timer is enabled has UNPREDICTABLE effect according to
the BCM1250/BCM1125/BCM1125H User Manual. So stop the timer before
reprogramming.
This is a paranoia fix; no ill effects have been observed previously.

For the old minimum of a single tick a value of zero would be programmed
into the init value register which in the BCM1250/BCM1125/BCM1125H User
Manual in the Timer Special Cases section is documented to have
UNPREDICTABLE effect.
Observable sympthoms of this bug were hangs of several seconds on the
console during bootup and later if both dyntick and highres timer options
were activated.
In theory contiguous mode of the timers is also affected but in an act of
hopeless lack of realism I'll assume nobody will ever configure a KERNEL
for HZ > 500kHz but if so I leave that to evolution to sort out.

[MIPS] Fix shadow register support.
Shadow register support would not possibly have worked on multicore
systems. The support code for it was also depending not on MIPS R2 but
VSMP or SMTC kernels even though it makes perfect sense with UP kernels.
SR sets are a scarce resource and the expected usage pattern is that
users actually hardcode the register set numbers in their code. So fix
the allocator by ditching it. Move the remaining CPU probe bits into
the generic CPU probe.
