Revert "ACPI: created a dedicated workqueue for notify() execution"

This reverts commit 37605a6900f6b4d886d995751fcfeef88c4e462c.

Again.

This same bug has now been introduced twice: it was done earlier by
commit b8d35192c55fb055792ff0641408eaaec7c88988, only to be reverted
last time in commit 72945b2b90a5554975b8f72673ab7139d232a121.

We must NOT try to queue up notify handlers to another thread than the
normal ACPI execution thread, because the notifications on some systems
seem to just keep on accumulating until we run out of memory and/or
threads.

Keeping events within the one deferred execution thread automatically
throttles the events properly.

At least the Compaq N620c will lock up completely on the first thermal
event without this patch reverted.

18 years agox86: be more careful when walking back the frame pointer chain

x86: be more careful when walking back the frame pointer chain

When showing the stack backtrace, make sure that we never accept not
only an unchanging frame pointer, but also a frame pointer that moves
back down the stack frame.  It must always grow up (toward older stack
frames).

I doubt this has triggered, but a subtly corrupt stack with extremely
unlucky contents could cause us to loop forever on a bogus endless frame
pointer chain.

This review was triggered by much worse problems happening in some of

[PATCH] i386/x86_64: ACPI cpu_idle_wait() fix

The scheduler on Andreas Friedrich's hyperthreading system stopped
working properly: the scheduler would never move tasks to another CPU!
The lask known working kernel was 2.6.8.

After a couple of attempts to corner the bug, the following smoking gun
was found:

  BIOS reported wrong ACPI idfor the processor

   [<c0103a87>] kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10

a quick look at cpu_idle_wait() shows how broken that code is
on i386: it changes the init task's affinity map but never
restores it ...

and because all userspace tasks get forked by init, they all
inherited that single-CPU affinity mask. x86_64 cloned this
bug too.

this crash happened because it did not sanitize the dwarf2 data it
got, and got an unaligned stack pointer - which happily walked past
the process stack (and eventually reached the end of kernel memory
and pagefaulted there) due to this naive iteration condition:

        HANDLE_STACK (((long) stack & (THREAD_SIZE-1)) != 0);

note that i386 is alot more conservative when it comes to trusting
stack pointers:

  static inline int valid_stack_ptr(struct thread_info *tinfo, void *p)
  {
         return  p > (void *)tinfo &&
                 p < (void *)tinfo + THREAD_SIZE - 3;
  }

but the x86_64 code did not take this bit of i386 code.

The fix is to align the stack pointer.

The root cause is that some irq_chip variables, especially ia64_msi_chip,
initiate their memeber end to point to NULL. __do_IRQ doesn't check
if irq_chip->end is null and just calls it after processing the interrupt.

As irq_chip->end is called at many places, so I fix it by reinitiating
irq_chip->end to dummy_irq_chip.end, e.g., a noop function.

The root cause is the device struct is initialized twice.

If the device is allocated dynamically by platform_device_alloc,
platform_device_alloc will initialize struct device, then,
platform_device_add should be used to register the device.

The difference between platform_device_register and platform_device_add is
platform_device_register will initiate the device while platform_device_add
won't.

[PATCH] Use delayed disable mode of ioapic edge triggered interrupts

Komuro reports that ISA interrupts do not work after a disable_irq(),
causing some PCMCIA drivers to not work, with messages like

eth0: Asix AX88190: io 0x300, irq 3, hw_addr xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
eth0: found link beat
eth0: autonegotiation complete: 100baseT-FD selected
eth0: interrupt(s) dropped!
eth0: interrupt(s) dropped!
eth0: interrupt(s) dropped!
...

Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> said:

  "Now, edge-triggered interrupts are a _lot_ harder to mask, because the
   Intel APIC is an unbelievable piece of sh*t, and has the edge-detect logic
   _before_ the mask logic, so if a edge happens _while_ the device is
   masked, you'll never ever see the edge ever again (unmasking will not
   cause a new edge, so you simply lost the interrupt).

   So when you "mask" an edge-triggered IRQ, you can't really mask it at all,
   because if you did that, you'd lose it forever if the IRQ comes in while
   you masked it. Instead, we're supposed to leave it active, and set a flag,
   and IF the IRQ comes in, we just remember it, and mask it at that point
   instead, and then on unmasking, we have to replay it by sending a
   self-IPI."

This trivial patch solves the problem.

Hugh Dickins [Tue, 14 Nov 2006 10:03:32 +0000 (02:03 -0800)]
[PATCH] hugetlb: prepare_hugepage_range check offset too

(David:)

If hugetlbfs_file_mmap() returns a failure to do_mmap_pgoff() - for example,
because the given file offset is not hugepage aligned - then do_mmap_pgoff
will go to the unmap_and_free_vma backout path.

But at this stage the vma hasn't been marked as hugepage, and the backout path
will call unmap_region() on it.  That will eventually call down to the
non-hugepage version of unmap_page_range().  On ppc64, at least, that will
cause serious problems if there are any existing hugepage pagetable entries in
the vicinity - for example if there are any other hugepage mappings under the
same PUD.  unmap_page_range() will trigger a bad_pud() on the hugepage pud
entries.  I suspect this will also cause bad problems on ia64, though I don't
have a machine to test it on.

(Hugh:)

prepare_hugepage_range() should check file offset alignment when it checks
virtual address and length, to stop MAP_FIXED with a bad huge offset from
unmapping before it fails further down.  PowerPC should apply the same
prepare_hugepage_range alignment checks as ia64 and all the others do.

Then none of the alignment checks in hugetlbfs_file_mmap are required (nor
is the check for too small a mapping); but even so, move up setting of
VM_HUGETLB and add a comment to warn of what David Gibson discovered - if
hugetlbfs_file_mmap fails before setting it, do_mmap_pgoff's unmap_region
when unwinding from error will go the non-huge way, which may cause bad
behaviour on architectures (powerpc and ia64) which segregate their huge
mappings into a separate region of the address space.

Stephen Tweedie, Herbert Xu, and myself have been struggling with a very
nasty bug in Xen.  But it also pointed out a small bug in the x86_64
kernel boot setup.

The GDT limit being setup by the initial bzImage code when entering into
protected mode is way too big.  The comment by the code states that the
size of the GDT is 2048, but the actual size being set up is much bigger
(32768). This happens simply because of one extra '0'.

Instead of setting up a 0x800 size, 0x8000 is set up.  On bare metal this
is fine because the CPU wont load any segments unless  they are
explicitly used.  But unfortunately, this breaks Xen on vmx FV, since it
(for now) blindly loads all the segments into the VMCS if they are less
than the gdt limit. Since the real mode segments are around 0x3000, we are
getting junk into the VMCS and that later causes an exception.

Stephen Tweedie has written up a patch to fix the Xen side and will be
submitting that to those folks. But that doesn't excuse the GDT limit
being a magnitude too big.
