| * [PATCH] powerpc: More hugepage boundary case fixesDavid Gibson2005-11-252-7/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Blah. The patch [0] I recently sent fixing errors with in_hugepage_area() and prepare_hugepage_range() for powerpc itself has an off-by-one bug. Furthermore, the related functions touches_hugepage_*_range() and within_hugepage_*_range() are also buggy. Some of the bugs, like those addressed in [0] originated with commit 7d24f0b8a53261709938ffabe3e00f88f6498df9 where we tweaked the semantics of where hugepages are allowed. Other bugs have been there essentially forever, and are due to the undefined behaviour of '<<' with shift counts greater than the type width (LOW_ESID_MASK could return non-zero for high ranges with the right congruences). The good news is that I now have a testsuite which should pick up things like this if they creep in again.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This should fix a suspend/resume issues that appear with OHCI on some PPC hardware. The PCI layer should doesn't have the hooks needed for such ASIC-specific hooks (in this case, software clock gating), so this moves the code to do that into hcd-pci.c ... where it can be done after the relevant PCI PM state transition (to/from D3).

* | [PATCH] USB: EHCI updates split init/reinit logic for resumeDavid Brownell2005-11-242-161/+162
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Moving the PCI-specific parts of the EHCI driver into their own file created a few issues ... notably on resume paths which (like swsusp) require re-initializing the controller. This patch: - Splits the EHCI startup code into run-once HCD setup code and separate "init the hardware" reinit code. (That reinit code is a superset of the "early usb handoff" code.) - Then it makes the PCI init code run both, and the resume code only run the reinit code. - It also removes needless pci wrappers around EHCI start/stop methods. - Removes a byteswap issue that would be seen on big-endian hardware. The HCD glue still doesn't actually provide a good way to do all this run-one init stuff in one place though.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This cleans up the recent updates to EHCI PCI support: - Gets rid of checks for "is this a PCI device", they're no longer needed since this is now all PCI-only code. - Reduce log spamming: MWI is only interesting in the atypical case that it can actually be used. - Whitespace cleanup, as appropriate for a new file with no other pending patches. So other than that minor logging change, no functional updates.

* | [PATCH] USB: EHCI updatesDavid Brownell2005-11-244-42/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes some bugs in EHCI suspend/resume that joined us over the past few releases (as usbcore, PCI, pmcore, and other components evolved): - Removes suspend and resume recursion from the EHCI driver, getting rid of the USB_SUSPEND special casing. - Updates the wakeup mechanism to work again; there's a newish usbcore call it needs to use. - Provide simpler tests for "do we need to restart from scratch", to address another case where PCI Vaux was lost. (In this case it was restoring a swsusp snapshot, but there could be others.) Un-exports a symbol that was temporarily exported. A notable change from previous version is that this doesn't move the spinlock init, so there's still a resume/reinit path bug.

Unfortunately, it left out a couple of necessary changes to go with that change. First, the in_hugepage_area() macro was not updated to match, second prepare_hugepage_range() was not updated to correctly handle hugepages regions which straddled the 4GB point. The latter appears only to cause process-hangs when attempting to map such a region, but the former can cause oopses if a get_user_pages() is triggered at the wrong point. This patch addresses both bugs. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* | [PATCH] Fix crash in unregister_console()Benjamin Herrenschmidt2005-11-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If unregister_console() is inadvertently called while no consoles are registered, it will crash trying to dereference NULL pointer. It is necessary to fix that because register_console() provides no indication that it actually registered the console passed in. In fact, it may well decide not to register it based on various things... (akpm: It'd be better to make register_console() return something and fix the callers. All 106 of them...)

* | [PATCH] fix do_wait() vs exec() raceOleg Nesterov2005-11-241-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When non-leader thread does exec, de_thread adds old leader to the init's ->children list in EXIT_ZOMBIE state and drops tasklist_lock. This means that release_task(leader) in de_thread() is racy vs do_wait() from init task. I think de_thread() should set old leader's state to EXIT_DEAD instead.

* | [PATCH] kprobes: Fix return probes on sys_execveJim Keniston2005-11-244-22/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix a bug in kprobes that can cause an Oops or even a crash when a return probe is installed on one of the following functions: sys_execve, do_execve, load_*_binary, flush_old_exec, or flush_thread. The fix is to remove the call to kprobe_flush_task() in flush_thread(). This fix has been tested on all architectures for which the return-probes feature has been implemented (i386, x86_64, ppc64, ia64). Please apply. BACKGROUND Up to now, we have called kprobe_flush_task() under two situations: when a task exits, and when it execs. Flushing kretprobe_instances on exit is correct because (a) do_exit() doesn't return, and (b) one or more return-probed functions may be active when a task calls do_exit(). Neither is the case for sys_execve() and its callees. Initially, the mistaken call to kprobe_flush_task() on exec was harmless because we put the "real" return address of each active probed function back in the stack, just to be safe, when we recycled its kretprobe_instance. When support for ppc64 and ia64 was added, this safety measure couldn't be employed, and was eventually dropped even for i386 and x86_64. sys_execve() and its callees were informally blacklisted for return probes until this fix was developed.
