Commit 5d2efba64b231a1733c4048d1708d77e07f26426 changed our iommu code
so that it always uses an iommu page size of 4kB. That means with our
current code, drivers may do a dma_map_sg() of a 64kB page and obtain
a dma_addr_t that is only 4k aligned.
This works fine in most cases except for some infiniband HW it seems,
where they tell the HW about the page size and it ignores the low bits
of the DMA address.
This works around it by making our IOMMU code enforce a PAGE_SIZE alignment
for mappings of objects that are page aligned in the first place and whose
size is larger or equal to a page.

This is wrong, ->real_parent could be freed/reused.
Both ->parent/real_parent point to nothing after __exit_signal() because
we remove the child from ->children list, and thus the child can't be

Kick CPUS that might be sleeping in cpus_idle_wait
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.

So replace pm_active with pm_flags.
pm_flags depends only on CONFIG_PM,
which is present for both CONFIG_APM and CONFIG_ACPI.

[MIPS] Malta: Fix software reset on big endian
I noticed that the commit f197465384bf7ef1af184c2ed1a4e268911a91e3
(MIPS Tech: Get rid of volatile in core code) broke the software
reset functionality for MIPS Malta boards in big-endian mode.
According to the MIPS Malta board user's manual, writing the magic
32-bit GORESET value into the SOFTRES register initiates board soft
reset. My experimentation has shown that the endianness of the GORESET
integer should thereby be the same as the endianness, which has been
set for the CPU itself. The writew() function used to write the magic
value in the code introduced by the commit mentioned above, however,
swaps bytes for big-endian kernels and transfers 16 bits instead of 32.
The patch below replaces the writew() function by the __raw_writel()
routine, which leaves the byte order intact and transfers the whole
MIPS machine word. Trivial code cleanup (replacing spaces by a tab
and cutting oversized lines to make checkpatch.pl happy) is also
included.
The patch was tested using a Malta evaluation board running in both
BE and LE modes. For both modes, software reset was fully functional
after the change.
P.S. I suspect that the same commit broke the "standby" functionality
for MIPS Atlas boards. However, I did not touch the Atlas code as I
don't have such board at my disposal and also because the linux-mips.org
Web site claims that Atlas support is scheduled for removal.

V4L/DVB (6999): ivtv: stick to udelay=10 after all
Using an udelay of 5 seems to result in problems for several people.
For now abandon the udelay value of 5 and stick to 10, even though this
will mean a longer load time of the cx2584x firmware.

block: fix blktrace timestamps
David Dillow reported broken blktrace timestamps. The reason
is cpu_clock() which is not a global time source.
Fix bkltrace timestamps by using ktime_get() like the networking
code does for packet timestamps. This also removes a whole lot
of complexity from bkltrace.c and shrinks the code by 500 bytes:
text data bss dec hex filename
2888 124 44 3056 bf0 blktrace.o.before
2390 116 44 2550 9f6 blktrace.o.after
This patch should fix the issue seen on Alpha with unaligned accesses in
the new readdir code. By aligning each dirent to sizeof(u64) we'll avoid
unaligned accesses. To make doubly sure we're not hitting problems also
rearrange struct hack_dirent to avoid holes.

[POWERPC] Fix CPU hotplug when using the SLB shadow buffer
Before we register the SLB shadow buffer, we need to invalidate the
entries in the buffer, otherwise we can end up stale entries from when
we previously offlined the CPU.
This does this invalidate as well as unregistering the buffer with
PHYP before we offline the cpu. Tested and fixes crashes seen on
970MP (thanks to tonyb) and POWER5.

ACPI _PS3 cause S4 breaks in the second attempt. The system has a _PS3
method for IDE, which will call into SMM mode. Currently we haven't clue
why just the second attempt fails, as it's totally in BIOS code, so
blacklist the system so far for 2.6.24.
A possible suspect is ACPI NVS isn't save/restore, we will revisit the
bug after linux does ACPI NVS save/restore.

libata: don't normalize UNKNOWN to NONE after reset
After non-classifying reset, ehc->classes[] could contain
ATA_DEV_UNKNOWN which used to be normalized to ATA_DEV_NONE for
consistency. However, this causes unfortunate side effect for drivers
which have non-classifying hardresets (e.g. sata_nv) by making
hardreset report ATA_DEV_NONE for non-classifying resets and thus
makes EH believe that the port is unoccupied and recovery can be
skipped. The end result is that after a device is swapped with
another one, the new device isn't attached after the old one is
detached.
This patch makes ata_eh_reset() not normalize UNKNOWN to NONE after
non-classifying resets. This fixes the above problem. As UNKNOWN and
NONE are handled differently by only EH hotplug logic, this doesn't
cause other behavior changes.
