git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux Pull build fixes for less mainstream architectures from Paul Gortmaker: "These are fixes for frv(1), blackfin(2), powerpc(1) and xtensa(4). Fortunately the touches are nearly all specific to files just used by the arch in question. The two touches to shared/common files [kernel/irq/debug.h and drivers/pci/Makefile] are trivial to assess as no risk to anyone. Half of them relate to xtensa directly. It was only when I fixed the last xtensa issue that I realized that the arch has been broken for a significant time, and isn't a specific v3.4 regression. So if you wanted, we could leave xtensa lying bleeding in the street for a couple more weeks and queue those for 3.5. But given they are no risk to anyone outside of xtensa, I figured to just leave them in. If you are OK with taking the xtensa fixes, then please pull to get: - one last implicit include uncovered by system.h that is in a file specific to just one powerpc defconfig. (I'd sync'd with BenH). - fix an oversight in the PCI makefile where shared code wasn't being compiled for ARCH=frv - fix a missing include for GPIO in blackfin framebuffer. - audit and tag endif in blackfin ezkit board file, in order to find and fix the misplaced endif masking a block of code. - fix irq/debug.h choice of temporary macro names to be more internal so they don't conflict with names used by xtensa. - fix a reference to an undeclared local var in xtensa's signal.c - fix an implicit bug.h usage in xtensa's asm/io.h uncovered by my removing bug.h from kernel.h - fix xtensa to properly indicate it is using asm-generic/hardirq.h in order to resolve the link error - undefined ack_bad_irq The xtensa still fails final link as my latest binutils does something evil when ld forward-relocates unlikely() blocks, but in theory people who have older/valid toolchains could now use the thing." * 'for-v3.4-rc5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux: xtensa: fix build fail on undefined ack_bad_irq blackfin: fix ifdef fustercluck in mach-bf538/boards/ezkit.c blackfin: fix compile error in bfin-lq035q1-fb.c pci: frv architecture needs generic setup-bus infrastructure irq: hide debug macros so they don't collide with others. xtensa: fix build error in xtensa/include/asm/io.h xtensa: fix build failure in xtensa/kernel/signal.c powerpc: fix system.h fallout in sysdev/scom.c [chroma_defconfig]
2012-04-26perf: Fix perf_event_for_each() to use siblingMichael Ellerman
In perf_event_for_each() we call a function on an event, and then iterate over the siblings of the event. However we don't call the function on the siblings, we call it repeatedly on the original event - it seems "obvious" that we should be calling it with sibling as the argument. It looks like this broke in commit 75f937f24bd9 ("Fix ctx->mutex vs counter->mutex inversion"). The only effect of the bug is that the PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP parameter to the ioctls doesn't work.

Commits 367456c756a6 ("sched: Ditch per cgroup task lists for load-balancing") and 5d6523ebd ("sched: Fix load-balance wreckage") left some more wreckage. By setting loop_max unconditionally to ->nr_running load-balancing could take a lot of time on very long runqueues (hackbench!). So keep the sysctl as max limit of the amount of tasks we'll iterate. Furthermore, the min load filter for migration completely fails with cgroups since inequality in per-cpu state can easily lead to such small loads :/ Furthermore the change to add new tasks to the tail of the queue instead of the head seems to have some effect.. not quite sure I understand why. Combined these fixes solve the huge hackbench regression reported by Tim when hackbench is ran in a cgroup.

2012-04-24PM / Hibernate: fix the number of pages used for hibernate/thaw bufferingBojan Smojver
Hibernation regression fix, since 3.2. Calculate the number of required free pages based on non-high memory pages only, because that is where the buffers will come from. Commit 081a9d043c983f161b78fdc4671324d1342b86bc introduced a new buffer page allocation logic during hibernation, in order to improve the performance. The amount of pages allocated was calculated based on total amount of pages available, although only non-high memory pages are usable for this purpose. This caused hibernation code to attempt to over allocate pages on platforms that have high memory, which led to hangs. Signed-off-by: Bojan Smojver <bojan@rexursive.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2012-04-19tracing: Fix stacktrace of latency tracers (irqsoff and friends)Steven Rostedt
While debugging a latency with someone on IRC (mirage335) on #linux-rt (OFTC), we discovered that the stacktrace output of the latency tracers (preemptirqsoff) was empty. This bug was caused by the creation of the dynamic length stack trace again (like commit 12b5da3 "tracing: Fix ent_size in trace output" was). This bug is caused by the latency tracers requiring the next event to determine the time between the current event and the next. But by grabbing the next event, the iter->ent_size is set to the next event instead of the current one. As the stacktrace event is the last event, this makes the ent_size zero and causes nothing to be printed for the stack trace. The dynamic stacktrace uses the ent_size to determine how much of the stack can be printed. The ent_size of zero means no stack. The simple fix is to save the iter->ent_size before finding the next event. Note, mirage335 asked to remain anonymous from LKML and git, so I will not add the Reported-by and Tested-by tags, even though he did report the issue and tested the fix.

2012-04-19tick: Fix the spurious broadcast timer ticks after resumeSuresh Siddha
During resume, tick_resume_broadcast() programs the broadcast timer in oneshot mode unconditionally. On the platforms where broadcast timer is not really required, this will generate spurious broadcast timer ticks upon resume. For example, on the always running apic timer platforms with HPET, I see spurious hpet tick once every ~5minutes (which is the 32-bit hpet counter wraparound time). Similar to boot time, during resume make the oneshot mode setting of the broadcast clock event device conditional on the state of active broadcast users.

2012-04-19tick: Ensure that the broadcast device is initializedThomas Gleixner
Santosh found another trap when we avoid to initialize the broadcast device in the switch_to_oneshot code. The broadcast device might be still in SHUTDOWN state when we actually need to use it. That obviously breaks, as set_next_event() is called on a shutdown device. This did not break on x86, but Suresh analyzed it: From the review, most likely on Sven's system we are force enabling the hpet using the pci quirk's method very late. And in this case, hpet_clockevent (which will be global_clock_event) handler can be null, specifically as this platform might not be using deeper c-states and using the reliable APIC timer. Prior to commit 'fa4da365bc7772c', that handler will be set to 'tick_handle_oneshot_broadcast' when we switch the broadcast timer to oneshot mode, even though we don't use it. Post commit 'fa4da365bc7772c', we stopped switching the broadcast mode to oneshot as this is not really needed and his platform's global_clock_event's handler will remain null. While on my SNB laptop, same is set to 'clockevents_handle_noop' because hpet gets enabled very early. (noop handler on my platform set when the early enabled hpet timer gets replaced by the lapic timer). But the commit 'fa4da365bc7772c' tracked the broadcast timer mode in the SW as oneshot, even though it didn't touch the HW timer. During resume however, tick_resume_broadcast() saw the SW broadcast mode as oneshot and actually programmed the broadcast device also into oneshot mode. So this triggered the null pointer de-reference after the hpet wraps around and depending on what the hpet counter is set to. On the normal platforms where hpet gets enabled early we should be seeing a spurious interrupt (in my SNB laptop I see one spurious interrupt after around 5 minutes ;) which is 32-bit hpet counter wraparound time), but that's a separate issue. Enforce the mode setting when trying to set an event.

2012-04-18tick: Fix oneshot broadcast setup reallyThomas Gleixner
Sven Joachim reported, that suspend/resume on rc3 trips over a NULL pointer dereference. Linus spotted the clockevent handler being NULL. commit fa4da365b(clockevents: tTack broadcast device mode change in tick_broadcast_switch_to_oneshot()) tried to fix a problem with the broadcast device setup, which was introduced in commit 77b0d60c5( clockevents: Leave the broadcast device in shutdown mode when not needed). The initial commit avoided to set up the broadcast device when no broadcast request bits were set, but that left the broadcast device disfunctional. In consequence deep idle states which need the broadcast device were not woken up. commit fa4da365b tried to fix that by initializing the state of the broadcast facility, but that missed the fact, that nothing initializes the event handler and some other state of the underlying clock event device. The fix is to revert both commits and make only the mode setting of the clock event device conditional on the state of active broadcast users. That initializes everything except the low level device mode, but this happens when the broadcast functionality is invoked by deep idle.

2012-04-17rcu: Permit call_rcu() from CPU_DYING notifiersPaul E. McKenney
As of: 29494be71afe ("rcu,cleanup: simplify the code when cpu is dying") RCU adopts callbacks from the dying CPU in its CPU_DYING notifier, which means that any callbacks posted by later CPU_DYING notifiers are ignored until the CPU comes back online. A WARN_ON_ONCE() was added to __call_rcu() by: e56014000816 ("rcu: Simplify offline processing") to check for this condition. Although this condition did not trigger (at least as far as I know) during -next testing, it did recently trigger in mainline: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/2/34 What is needed longer term is for RCU's CPU_DEAD notifier to adopt any callbacks that were posted by CPU_DYING notifiers, however, the Linux kernel has been running with this sort of thing happening for quite some time. So the only thing that qualifies as a regression is the WARN_ON_ONCE(), which this commit removes. Making RCU's CPU_DEAD notifier adopt callbacks posted by CPU_DYING notifiers is a topic for the 3.5 release of the Linux kernel.

2012-04-16tracing: Fix regression with tracing_onSteven Rostedt
The change to make tracing_on affect only the ftrace ring buffer, caused a bug where it wont affect any ring buffer. The problem was that the buffer of the trace_array was passed to the write function and not the trace array itself. The trace_array can change the buffer when running a latency tracer. If this happens, then the buffer being disabled may not be the buffer currently used by ftrace. This will cause the tracing_on file to become useless. The simple fix is to pass the trace_array to the write function instead of the buffer. Then the actual buffer may be changed. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Commit 6e6f0a1f0fa6 ("panic: don't print redundant backtraces on oops") causes a regression where no stack trace will be printed at all for the case where kernel code calls panic() directly while not processing an oops, and of course there are 100's of instances of this type of call. The original commit executed the check (!oops_in_progress), but this will always be false because just before the dump_stack() there is a call to bust_spinlocks(1), which does the following: void __attribute__((weak)) bust_spinlocks(int yes) { if (yes) { ++oops_in_progress; The proper way to resolve the problem that original commit tried to solve is to avoid printing a stack dump from panic() when the either of the following conditions is true: 1) TAINT_DIE has been set (this is done by oops_end()) This indicates and oops has already been printed. 2) oops_in_progress > 1 This guards against the rare case where panic() is invoked a second time, or in between oops_begin() and oops_end() Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> [3.3+] Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2012-04-12irq_domain: Move irq_virq_count into NOMAP revmapGrant Likely
This patch replaces the old global setting of irq_virq_count that is only used by the NOMAP mapping and instead uses a revmap_data property so that the maximum NOMAP allocation can be set per NOMAP irq_domain. There is exactly one user of irq_virq_count in-tree right now: PS3. Also, irq_virq_count is only useful for the NOMAP mapping. So, instead of having a single global irq_virq_count values, this change drops it entirely and added a max_irq argument to irq_domain_add_nomap(). That makes it a property of an individual nomap irq domain instead of a global system settting.

2012-04-10irq/irq_domain: Quit ignoring error returns from irq_alloc_desc_from().David Daney
In commit 4bbdd45a (irq_domain/powerpc: eliminate irq_map; use irq_alloc_desc() instead) code was added that ignores error returns from irq_alloc_desc_from() by (silently) casting the return value to unsigned. The negitive value error return now suddenly looks like a valid irq number. Commits cc79ca69 (irq_domain: Move irq_domain code from powerpc to kernel/irq) and 1bc04f2c (irq_domain: Add support for base irq and hwirq in legacy mappings) move this code to its current location in irqdomain.c The result of all of this is a null pointer dereference OOPS if one of the error cases is hit. The fix: Don't cast away the negativeness of the return value and then check for errors.

2012-04-10clockevents: tTack broadcast device mode change in ↵Suresh Siddha
tick_broadcast_switch_to_oneshot() In the commit 77b0d60c5adf39c74039e2142a1d3cd1e4d53799, "clockevents: Leave the broadcast device in shutdown mode when not needed", we were bailing out too quickly in tick_broadcast_switch_to_oneshot(), with out tracking the broadcast device mode change to 'TICKDEV_MODE_ONESHOT'. This breaks the platforms which need broadcast device oneshot services during deep idle states. tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() thinks that it is in periodic mode and fails to take proper decisions based on the CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_[ENTER, EXIT] notifications during deep idle entry/exit. Fix this by tracking the broadcast device mode as 'TICKDEV_MODE_ONESHOT', before leaving the broadcast HW device in shutdown mode if there are no active requests for the moment.

2012-04-06nohz: Fix stale jiffies update in tick_nohz_restart()Neal Cardwell
Fix tick_nohz_restart() to not use a stale ktime_t "now" value when calling tick_do_update_jiffies64(now). If we reach this point in the loop it means that we crossed a tick boundary since we grabbed the "now" timestamp, so at this point "now" refers to a time in the old jiffy, so using the old value for "now" is incorrect, and is likely to give us a stale jiffies value. In particular, the first time through the loop the tick_do_update_jiffies64(now) call is always a no-op, since the caller, tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(), will have already called tick_do_update_jiffies64(now) with that "now" value. Note that tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() already uses the correct approach: when we notice we cross a jiffy boundary, grab a new timestamp with ktime_get(), and *then* update jiffies.

2012-04-05simple_open: automatically convert to simple_open()Stephen Boyd
Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when they want to support a custom read/write function op. This leads to a proliferation of the default_open() implementation across the entire tree. Now that the common implementation has been consolidated into libfs we can replace all the users of this function with simple_open(). This replacement was done with the following semantic patch: <smpl> @ open @ identifier open_f != simple_open; identifier i, f; @@ -int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) -{ ( -if (i->i_private) -f->private_data = i->i_private; | -f->private_data = i->i_private; ) -return 0; -} @ has_open depends on open @ identifier fops; identifier open.open_f; @@ struct file_operations fops = { ... -.open = open_f, +.open = simple_open, ... }; </smpl> [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2012-04-05sysctl: fix write access to dmesg_restrict/kptr_restrictKees Cook
Commit bfdc0b4 adds code to restrict access to dmesg_restrict, however, it incorrectly alters kptr_restrict rather than dmesg_restrict. The original patch from Richard Weinberger (https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/14/362) alters dmesg_restrict as expected, and so the patch seems to have been misapplied. This adds the CAP_SYS_ADMIN check to both dmesg_restrict and kptr_restrict, since both are sensitive.

2012-04-02irq_work: fix compile failure on MIPS from system.h splitPaul Gortmaker
Builds of the MIPS platform ip32_defconfig fails as of commit 0195c00244dc ("Merge tag 'split-asm_system_h ...") because MIPS xchg() macro uses BUILD_BUG_ON and it was moved in commit b81947c646bf ("Disintegrate asm/system.h for MIPS"). The root cause is that the system.h split wasn't tested on a baseline with commit 6c03438edeb5 ("kernel.h: doesn't explicitly use bug.h, so don't include it.") Since this file uses BUG code in several other places besides the xchg call, simply make the inclusion explicit.
