  [S390] protect _PAGE_SPECIAL bit against mprotect

16 years agoCorrect hash flushing from huge_ptep_set_wrprotect()
David Gibson [Tue, 8 Jul 2008 05:58:16 +0000 (15:58 +1000)]
Correct hash flushing from huge_ptep_set_wrprotect()

As Andy Whitcroft recently pointed out, the current powerpc version of
huge_ptep_set_wrprotect() has a bug.  It just calls ptep_set_wrprotect()
which in turn calls pte_update() then hpte_need_flush() with the 'huge'
argument set to 0.  This will cause hpte_need_flush() to flush the wrong
hash entries (of any).  Andy's fix for this is already in the powerpc
tree as commit 016b33c4958681c24056abed8ec95844a0da80a3.

I have confirmed this is a real bug, not masked by some other
synchronization, with a new testcase for libhugetlbfs.  A process write
a (MAP_PRIVATE) hugepage mapping, fork(), then alter the mapping and
have the child incorrectly see the second write.

Therefore, this should be fixed for 2.6.26, and for the stable tree.
Here is a suitable patch for 2.6.26, which I think will also be suitable
for the stable tree (neither of the headers in question has been changed
much recently).

It is cut down slighlty from Andy's original version, in that it does
not include a 32-bit version of huge_ptep_set_wrprotect().  Currently,
hugepages are not supported on any 32-bit powerpc platform.  When they
are, a suitable 32-bit version can be added - the only 32-bit hardware
which supports hugepages does not use the conventional hashtable MMU and
so will have different needs anyway.

KVM: IOAPIC: Fix level-triggered irq injection hang

The "remote_irr" variable is used to indicate an interrupt
which has been received by the LAPIC, but not acked.

In our EOI handler, we unset remote_irr and re-inject the
interrupt if the interrupt line is still asserted.

However, we do not set remote_irr here, leading to a
situation where if kvm_ioapic_set_irq() is called, then we go
ahead and call ioapic_service(). This means that IRR is
re-asserted even though the interrupt is currently in service
(i.e. LAPIC IRR is cleared and ISR/TMR set)

The issue with this is that when the currently executing
interrupt handler finishes and writes LAPIC EOI, then TMR is
unset and EOI sent to the IOAPIC. Since IRR is now asserted,
but TMR is not, then when the second interrupt is handled,
no EOI is sent and if there is any pending interrupt, it is
not re-injected.

This fixes a hang only seen while running mke2fs -j on an

cciss: read config to obtain max outstanding commands per controller

This patch changes the way we determine the maximum number of outstanding
commands for each controller.

Most Smart Array controllers can support up to 1024 commands, the notable
exceptions are the E200 and E200i.

The next generation of controllers which were just added support a mode of
operation called Zero Memory Raid (ZMR).  In this mode they only support
64 outstanding commands.  In Full Function Raid (FFR) mode they support
1024.

We have been setting the queue depth by arbitrarily assigning some value
for each controller.  We needed a better way to set the queue depth to
avoid lots of annoying "fifo full" messages.  So we made the driver a
little smarter.  We now read the config table and subtract 4 from the
returned value.  The -4 is to allow some room for ioctl calls which are
not tracked the same way as io commands are tracked.

Please consider this for inclusion.

MFD maintainer

We probably need someone to look after the few drivers/mfd patches coming
every now and then.  As agreed with Andrew, I'm ok to do so and my
employer is fine with me spending a few working hours on it, if needed.
Ben, Philipp, feel free to add your names there too if you wish.

man-pages is supported

Starting last month, I reached a long-time goal: man-pages finally has a
paid, full-time maintainer, thanks to a fellowship from the Linux
Foundation.  It's still a little unclear how long the LF money will last
for the fellowship, but for the foreseeable future, I'll be working on:

* Properly documenting every new Linux kernel-userland (and glibc) API,
  and every API change, that is released into the mainline kernel, ideally
  before actual release.  (That's the ideal, but there's a quite a
  backlog, so I'm not going to achieve the ideal immediately.)

* Testing new APIs, again ideally before they are released into the
  mainline kernel, and probably doing some light bug fixing while I'm at
  it (e.g., the recent utimensat() work).

* Design review of new APIs, which of course can only usefully be done
  before they are released into the mainline kernel.

* And of course accepting patches and dealing with bug reports for
  existing man pages.

various subsystem trees can start using it now for -next changes and so
