sched, delay accounting: fix incorrect delay time when constantly waiting on runqueue
This patch corrects the incorrect value of per process run-queue wait
time reported by delay statistics. The anomaly was due to the following
reason. When a process leaves the CPU and immediately starts waiting for
CPU on the runqueue (which means it remains in the TASK_RUNNABLE state),
the time of re-entry into the run-queue is never recorded. Due to this,
the waiting time on the runqueue from this point of re-entry upto the
next time it hits the CPU is not accounted for. This is solved by
recording the time of re-entry of a process leaving the CPU in the
sched_info_depart() function IF the process will go back to waiting on
the run-queue. This IF condition is verified by checking whether the
process is still in the TASK_RUNNABLE state.
The patch was tested on 2.6.26-rc6 using two simple CPU hog programs.
The values noted prior to the fix did not account for the time spent on
the runqueue waiting. After the fix, the correct values were reported
back to user space.

I dunno. Here's a untested (!!) patch that turns constant-bit
set/clear_bit ops into byte mask ops (lock orb/andb).
It's not exactly pretty. The reason for using the byte versions is that a
locked op is serialized in the memory pipeline anyway, so there are no
forwarding issues (that could slow down things when we access things with
different sizes), and the byte ops are a lot smaller than 32-bit and
particularly 64-bit ops (big constants, and the 64-bit ops need the REX
prefix byte too).
[ Side note: I wonder if we should turn the "test_bit()" C version into a
"char *" version too.. It could actually help with alias analysis, since
char pointers can alias anything. So it might be the RightThing(tm) to
do for multiple reasons. I dunno. It's a separate issue. ]
It does actually shrink the kernel image a bit (a couple of hundred bytes
on the text segment for my everything-compiled-in image), and while it's
totally untested the (admittedly few) code generation points I looked at
seemed sane. And "lock orb" should be noticeably faster than "lock bts".
If somebody wants to play with it, go wild. I didn't do "change_bit()",
because nobody sane uses that thing anyway. I guarantee nothing. And if it
breaks, nobody saw me do anything. You can't prove this email wasn't sent
by somebody who is good at forging smtp.
This does require a gcc that is recent enough for "__builtin_constant_p()"
to work in an inline function, but I suspect our kernel requirements are
already higher than that. And if you do have an old gcc that is supported,
the worst that would happen is that the optimization doesn't trigger.

rcu: make rcutorture more vicious: reinstate boot-time testing
This patch re-institutes the ability to build rcutorture directly into
the Linux kernel. The reason that this capability was removed was that
this could result in your kernel being pretty much useless, as rcutorture
would be running starting from early boot. This problem has been avoided
by (1) making rcutorture run only three seconds of every six by default,
(2) adding a CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_RUNNABLE that permits rcutorture
to be quiesced at boot time, and (3) adding a sysctl in /proc named
/proc/sys/kernel/rcutorture_runnable that permits rcutorture to be
quiesced and unquiesced when built into the kernel.
Please note that this /proc file is -not- available when rcutorture
is built as a module. Please also note that to get the earlier
take-no-prisoners behavior, you must use the boot command line to set
rcutorture's "stutter" parameter to zero.
The rcutorture quiescing mechanism is currently quite crude: loops
in each rcutorture process that poll a global variable once per tick.
Suggestions for improvement are welcome. The default action will
be to reduce the polling rate to a few times per second.

The core reason for this bug is that native_sched_clock() gets
called before tsc_init().
Before the commit above, tsc_32.c used a "tsc_enabled" variable
which defaulted to 0 == disabled, and which only got enabled late
in tsc_init(). Thus early calls to native_sched_clock() would skip
the TSC and use jiffies instead.
After the commit above, tsc_32.c uses a "tsc_disabled" variable
which defaults to 0, meaning that the TSC is Ok to use. Early calls
to native_sched_clock() now erroneously try to use the TSC on
!cpu_has_tsc processors, leading to invalid opcode exceptions.
My proposed fix is to initialise tsc_disabled to a "soft disabled"
state distinct from the hard disabled state set up by the "notsc"
kernel option. This fixes the native_sched_clock() problem. It also
allows tsc_init() to be simplified: instead of setting tsc_disabled = 1
on every error return, we just set tsc_disabled = 0 once when all
checks have succeeded.
I've verified that this lets my 486 boot again. I've also verified
that a Core2 machine still uses the TSC as clocksource after the patch.

Somehow (as described below) TS_USEDFPU is set but the fpu is not
allocated or freed.
Another possible FPU pre-emption issue with the sleazy FPU optimization
which was benign before but not so anymore, with the dynamic FPU allocation
patch.
New task is getting exec'd and it is prempted at the below point.
Now when it context switches in again, as the used_math() is still set
and fpu_counter can be > 5, we will do a math_state_restore() which sets
the task's TS_USEDFPU. After it continues from the above preemption point
it does clear_used_math() and much later free_thread_xstate().
Now, at the next context switch, it is quite possible that xstate is
null, used_math() is not set and TS_USEDFPU is still set. This will
trigger unlazy_fpu() causing kernel oops.
Fix this by clearing tsk's fpu_counter before clearing task's fpu.
When a 64-bit x86 processor runs in 32-bit PAE mode, a pte can
potentially have the same number of physical address bits as the
64-bit host ("Enhanced Legacy PAE Paging"). This means, in theory,
we could have up to 52 bits of physical address in a pte.
The 32-bit kernel uses a 32-bit unsigned long to represent a pfn.
This means that it can only represent physical addresses up to 32+12=44
bits wide. Rather than widening pfns everywhere, just set 2^44 as the
Linux x86_32-PAE architectural limit for physical address size.
This is a bugfix for two cases:
1. running a 32-bit PAE kernel on a machine with
more than 64GB RAM.
2. running a 32-bit PAE Xen guest on a host machine with
more than 64GB RAM
In both cases, a pte could need to have more than 36 bits of physical,
and masking it to 36-bits will cause fairly severe havoc.

softlockup: fix NMI hangs due to lock race - 2.6.26-rc regression
The touch_nmi_watchdog() routine on x86 ultimately calls
touch_softlockup_watchdog(). The problem is that to touch the
softlockup watchdog, the cpu_clock code has to be called which could
involve multiple cpu locks and can lead to a hard hang if one of the
locks is held by a processor that is not going to return anytime soon
(such as could be the case with kgdb or perhaps even with some other
kind of exception).
This patch causes the public version of the
touch_softlockup_watchdog() to defer the cpu clock access to a later
point.
The test case for this problem is to use the following kernel config
options:
It should be noted that kgdb test suite and these options were not
available until 2.6.26-rc2, so it was necessary to patch the kgdb
test suite during the bisection.
I would consider this patch a regression fix because the problem first
appeared in commit 27ec4407790d075c325e1f4da0a19c56953cce23 when some
logic was added to try to periodically sync the clocks. It was
possible to work around this particular problem by simply not
performing the sync anytime the system was in a critical context.
This was ok until commit 3e51f33fcc7f55e6df25d15b55ed10c8b4da84cd,
which added config option CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK and some
multi-cpu locks to sync the clocks. It became clear that accessing
this code from an nmi was the source of the lockups. Avoiding the
access to the low level clock code from an code inside the NMI
processing also fixed the problem with the 27ec44... commit.

I introduced free_sched_domains() function that cleans things up.
Second issue is that sched domains created by the cpusets are
completely destroyed by the CPU hotplug events. For all CPU hotplug
events scheduler attaches all CPUs to the NULL domain and then puts
them all into the single domain thereby destroying domains created
by the cpusets (partition_sched_domains).
The solution is simple, when cpusets are enabled scheduler should not

The bandwidth throttle code dequeues a group when it runs out of quota, and
re-queues it once the period rolls over and the quota gets refreshed.
Sadly it failed to take the hierarchy into consideration. Share more of the
enqueue/dequeue code with regular task opterations.
Also, some operations like sched_setscheduler() can dequeue/enqueue tasks that
are in throttled runqueues, we should not inadvertly re-enqueue empty runqueues
so check for that.

sata_mv: warn on PIO with multiple DRQs
Chip errata sometimes prevents reliable use of PIO commands which involve
more than a single DRQ (data request). In normal operation, libata should
not generate such PIO commands (uses DMA instead), but they could be sent
in via SG_IO from userspace.
A full workaround might be to break up such commands into sequences
of single DRQ ones, but that's just way too complex for something
that doesn't normally happen in real life.
So, allow the attempt (it often works, despite the errata),
but log the event for reference when somebody screams.

agp: two-stage page destruction issue
besides it apparently being useful only in 2.6.24 (the changes in 2.6.25
really mean that it could be converted back to a single-stage mechanism),
I'm seeing an issue in Xen Dom0 kernels, which is caused by the calling
of gart_to_virt() in the second stage invocations of the destroy function.
I think that besides this being a real issue with Xen (where
unmap_page_from_agp() is not just a page table attribute change), this
also is invalid from a theoretical perspective: One should not assume that
gart_to_virt() is still valid after unmapping a page. So minimally (keeping
the 2-stage mechanism) a patch like the one below would be needed.

firewire: deadline for PHY config transmission
If the low-level driver failed to initialize a card properly without
noticing it, fw-core was blocked indefinitely when trying to send a
PHY config packet. This hung up the events kernel thread, e.g. locked
up keyboard input.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=444694
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=446763
This problem was introduced between 2.6.25 and 2.6.26-rc1 by commit 2a0a2590498be7b92e3e76409c9b8ee722e23c8f "firewire: wait until PHY
configuration packet was transmitted (fix bus reset loop)".
The solution is to wait with timeout. I tested it with 7 different
working controllers and 1 non-working controller. On the working ones,
the packet callback complete()s usually --- but not always --- before a
timeout of 10ms. Hence I chose a safer timeout of 100ms.
On the few tests with the non-working controller ALi M5271, PHY config
packet transmission always timed out so far. (Fw-ohci needs to be fixed
for this controller independently of this deadline fix. Often the core
doesn't even attempt to send a phy config because not even self ID
reception works.)

rcu: make rcutorture more vicious: add stutter feature
This patch takes a step towards making rcutorture more brutal by allowing
the test to be automatically periodically paused, with the default being
to run the test for five seconds then pause for five seconds and repeat.
This behavior can be controlled using a new "stutter" module parameter, so
that "stutter=0" gives the old default behavior of running continuously.
Starting and stopping rcutorture more heavily stresses RCU's interaction
with the scheduler, as well as exercising more paths through the
grace-period detection code.
Note that the default to "shuffle_interval" has also been adjusted from
5 seconds to 3 seconds to provide varying overlap with the "stutter"
interval.
I am still unable to provoke the failures that Alexey has been seeing,
even with this patch, but will be doing a few additional things to beef
up rcutorture.
