Adrian Bunk 9e84d1c36a [PATCH] i386: cleanup boot_cpu_logical_apicid variables
There are currently two different boot_cpu_logical_apicid variables:
- a global one in mpparse.c
- a static one in smpboot.c

Of these two, only the one in smpboot.c might be used (through
boot_cpu_apicid).

This patch therefore removes the one in mpparse.c .

Alexander Nyberg 4f339ecb30 [PATCH] kdump: Save trap information for later analysis
If we are faulting in kernel it is quite possible this will lead to a
panic.  Save trap number, cr2 (in case of page fault) and error_code in the
current thread (these fields already exist for signal delivery but are not
used here).

This helps later kdump crash analyzing from user-space (a script has been
submitted to dig this info out in gdb).

Alexander Nyberg 6e274d1443 [PATCH] kdump: Use real pt_regs from exception
Makes kexec_crashdump() take a pt_regs * as an argument.  This allows to
get exact register state at the point of the crash.  If we come from direct
panic assertion NULL will be passed and the current registers saved before
crashdump.

This hooks into two places:
die(): check the conditions under which we will panic when calling
do_exit and go there directly with the pt_regs that caused the fatal
fault.

die_nmi(): If we receive an NMI lockup while in the kernel use the
pt_regs and go directly to crash_kexec(). We're probably nested up badly
at this point so this might be the only chance to escape with proper
information.

o Problem: Kexec on panic hangs if first kernel is booted with nmi_watchdog
  command line parameter. This problem occurs because kexec crash shutdown
  code replaces the NMI callback handler. This handler saves the cpu register
  states and halts the cpu. If system is booted with nmi_watchdog parameter,
  then crashing cpu also runs this nmi handler and halts itself.

o This patch fixes the problem by keeping a track of crashing cpu and not
  executing the new nmi handler on crashing cpu.

R Sharada fce0d57403 [PATCH] ppc64: kexec support for ppc64
This patch implements the kexec support for ppc64 platforms.

A couple of notes:

1)  We copy the pages in virtual mode, using the full base kernel
    and a statically allocated stack.   At kexec_prepare time we
    scan the pages and if any overlap our (0, _end[]) range we
    return -ETXTBSY.

    On PowerPC 64 systems running in LPAR (logical partitioning)
    mode, only a small region of memory, referred to as the RMO,
    can be accessed in real mode.  Since Linux runs with only one
    zone of memory in the memory allocator, and it can be orders of
    magnitude more memory than the RMO, looping until we allocate
    pages in the source region is not feasible.  Copying in virtual
    means we don't have to write a hash table generation and call
    hypervisor to insert translations, instead we rely on the pinned
    kernel linear mapping.  The kernel already has move to linked
    location built in, so there is no requirement to load it at 0.

    If we want to load something other than a kernel, then a stub
    can be written to copy a linear chunk in real mode.

2)  The start entry point gets passed parameters from the kernel.
    Slaves are started at a fixed address after copying code from
    the entry point.

    All CPUs get passed their firmware assigned physical id in r3
    (most calling conventions use this register for the first
    argument).

    This is used to distinguish each CPU from all other CPUs.
    Since firmware is not around, there is no other way to obtain
    this information other than to pass it somewhere.

    A single CPU, referred to here as the master and the one executing
    the kexec call, branches to start with the address of start in r4.
    While this can be calculated, we have to load it through a gpr to
    branch to this point so defining the register this is contained
    in is free.  A stack of unspecified size is available at r1
    (also common calling convention).

    All remaining running CPUs are sent to start at absolute address
    0x60 after copying the first 0x100 bytes from start to address 0.
    This convention was chosen because it matches what the kernel
    has been doing itself.  (only gpr3 is defined).

    Note: This is not quite the convention of the kexec bootblock v2
    in the kernel.  A stub has been written to convert between them,
    and we may adjust the kernel in the future to allow this directly
    without any stub.

3)  Destination pages can be placed anywhere, even where they
    would not be accessible in real mode.  This will allow us to
    place ram disks above the RMO if we choose.

Eric W. Biederman 70765aa4bd [PATCH] kexec: kexec ppc support
I have tweaked this patch slightly to handle an empty list
of pages to relocate passed to relocate_new_kernel.  And
I have added ppc_md.machine_crash_shutdown.  To keep up with
the changes in the generic kexec infrastructure.

From: Albert Herranz <albert_herranz@yahoo.es>

The following patch adds support for kexec on the ppc32 platform.

Non-OpenFirmware based platforms are likely to work directly without
additional changes on the kernel side.  The kexec-tools userland package
may need to be slightly updated, though.

For OpenFirmware based machines, additional work is still needed on the
kernel side before kexec support is ready.  Benjamin Herrenschmidt is
kindly working on that part.

In order for a ppc platform to use the kexec kernel services it must
implement some ppc_md hooks.  Otherwise, kexec will be explicitly disabled,
as suggested by benh.

There are 3+1 new ppc_md hooks that a platform supporting kexec may
implement.  Two of them are mandatory for kexec to work.  See
include/asm-ppc/machdep.h for details.

- machine_kexec_prepare(image)

  This function is called to make any arrangements to the image before it
  is loaded.

  This hook _MUST_ be provided by a platform in order to activate kexec
  support for that platform.  Otherwise, the platform is considered to not
  support kexec and the kexec_load system call will fail (that makes all
  existing platforms by default non-kexec'able).

- machine_kexec_cleanup(image)

  This function is called to make any cleanups on image after the loaded
  image data it is freed.  This hook is optional.  A platform may or may
  not provide this hook.

- machine_kexec(image)

  This function is called to perform the _actual_ kexec.  This hook
  _MUST_ be provided by a platform in order to activate kexec support for
  that platform.

  If a platform provides machine_kexec_prepare but forgets to provide
  machine_kexec, a kexec will fall back to a reboot.

  A ready-to-use machine_kexec_simple() generic function is provided to,
  hopefully, simplify kexec adoption for embedded platforms.  A platform
  may call this function from its specific machine_kexec hook, like this:

void myplatform_kexec(struct kimage *image)
{
        machine_kexec_simple(image);
}

- machine_shutdown()

  This function is called to perform any machine specific shutdowns, not
  already done by drivers.  This hook is optional.  A platform may or may
  not provide this hook.

An example (trimmed) platform specific module for a platform supporting
kexec through the existing machine_kexec_simple follows:

/* ... */

#ifdef CONFIG_KEXEC
int myplatform_kexec_prepare(struct kimage *image)
{
        /* here, we can place additional preparations
*/
        return 0; /* yes, we support kexec */
}

void myplatform_kexec(struct kimage *image)
{
        machine_kexec_simple(image);
}
#endif /* CONFIG_KEXEC */

/* ... */

void __init
platform_init(unsigned long r3, unsigned long r4,
unsigned long r5,
              unsigned long r6, unsigned long r7)
{

/* ... */

#ifdef CONFIG_KEXEC
        ppc_md.machine_kexec_prepare =
myplatform_kexec_prepare;
        ppc_md.machine_kexec         =
myplatform_kexec;
#endif /* CONFIG_KEXEC */

/* ... */

}

The kexec ppc kernel support has been heavily tested on the GameCube Linux
port, and, as reported in the fastboot mailing list, it has been tested too
on a Moto 82xx ppc by Rick Richardson.

Eric W. Biederman 63d30298ef [PATCH] kexec: x86 shutdown APICs during crash_shutdown
In the case of a crash/panic an architecture specific function
machine_crash_shutdown is called.  This patch adds to the x86 machine_crash
function the standard kernel code for shutting down apics.

Every line of code added to that function increases the risk that we will call
code after a kernel panic that is not safe.

This patch should not make it to the stable kernel without a being reviewed a
lot more.  It is unclear how much a hardned kernel can take when it comes to
misconfigured apics.  So since a normal kernel has problems this patch does a
clean shutdown.

It is my expectation this patch will be dropped from future generations of the
kexec work.  But for the moment it is a crutch to keep from breaking
everything.

After the kernel panics if we wish to generate an entire machine core file it
is very nice to know the register state at the time the machine crashed.

After long discussion it was realized that if you are going to be saving the
information anyway it is reasonable to store the information in a format that
it will be used and recognized in so the register state is stored in the
standard ELF note format.

Eric W. Biederman c4ac4263a0 [PATCH] crashdump: x86: add NMI handler to capture other CPUs
One of the dangers when switching from one kernel to another is what happens
to all of the other cpus that were running in the crashed kernel.  In an
attempt to avoid that problem this patch adds a nmi handler and attempts to
shoot down the other cpus by sending them non maskable interrupts.

The code then waits for 1 second or until all known cpus have stopped running
and then jumps from the running kernel that has crashed to the kernel in
reserved memory.

The kernel spin loop is used for the delay as that should behave continue to
be safe even in after a crash.

By switching to the bootstrap cpu by default on reboot I can delete/simplify
some motherboard fixups well.

Eric W. Biederman d0537508a9 [PATCH] kexec: x86_64: add CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START
For one kernel to report a crash another kernel has created we need
to have 2 kernels loaded simultaneously in memory.  To accomplish this
the two kernels need to built to run at different physical addresses.

This patch adds the CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START option to the x86_64 kernel
so we can do just that.  You need to know what you are doing and
the ramifications are before changing this value, and most users
won't care so I have made it depend on CONFIG_EMBEDDED

bzImage kernels will work and run at a different address when compiled
with this option but they will still load at 1MB.  If you need a kernel
loaded at a different address as well you need to boot a vmlinux.

Vivek Goyal 8a9190853c [PATCH] kexec: reserve Bootmem fix for booting nondefault location kernel
This patch fixes a problem with reserving memory during boot up of a kernel
built for non-default location.  Currently boot memory allocator reserves
the memory required by kernel image, boot allocaotor bitmap etc.  It
assumes that kernel is loaded at 1MB (HIGH_MEMORY hard coded to 1024*1024).
 But kernel can be built for non-default locatoin, hence existing
hardcoding will lead to reserving unnecessary memory.  This patch fixes it.

Eric W. Biederman 5ded01e83e [PATCH] kexec: x86_64: vmlinux: fix physical addresses
The vmlinux on x86_64 does not report the correct physical address of
the kernel.  Instead in the physical address field it currently
reports the virtual address of the kernel.

This is patch is a bug fix that corrects vmlinux to report the
proper physical addresses.

This is potentially a help for crash dump analysis tools.

This definitiely allows bootloaders that load vmlinux as a standard
ELF executable.  Bootloaders directly loading vmlinux become of
practical importance when we consider the kexec on panic case.

When coming out of apic mode attempt to set the appropriate
apic back into virtual wire mode.  This improves on previous versions
of this patch by by never setting bot the local apic and the ioapic
into veritual wire mode.

This code looks at data from the mptable to see if an ioapic has
an ExtInt input to make this decision.  A future improvement
is to figure out which apic or ioapic was in virtual wire mode
at boot time and to remember it.  That is potentially a more accurate
method, of selecting which apic to place in virutal wire mode.

This patch disables interrupt generation from the legacy pic on reboot.  Now
that there is a sys_device class it should not be called while drivers are

There is a report about this breaking ACPI power off on some systems.

However the final comment seems to exonerate this code.  So until
I get more information I believe that was a false positive.

Paul E. McKenney b2b1866006 [PATCH] RCU: clean up a few remaining synchronize_kernel() calls
2.6.12-rc6-mm1 has a few remaining synchronize_kernel()s, some (but not
all) in comments.  This patch changes these synchronize_kernel() calls (and
comments) to synchronize_rcu() or synchronize_sched() as follows:

- arch/x86_64/kernel/mce.c mce_read(): change to synchronize_sched() to
  handle races with machine-check exceptions (synchronize_rcu() would not cut
  it given RCU implementations intended for hardcore realtime use.

- drivers/input/serio/i8042.c i8042_stop(): change to synchronize_sched() to
  handle races with i8042_interrupt() interrupt handler.  Again,
  synchronize_rcu() would not cut it given RCU implementations intended for
  hardcore realtime use.

- include/*/kdebug.h comments: change to synchronize_sched() to handle races
  with NMIs.  As before, synchronize_rcu() would not cut it...

- include/linux/list.h comment: change to synchronize_rcu(), since this
  comment is for list_del_rcu().

- security/keys/key.c unregister_key_type(): change to synchronize_rcu(),
  since this is interacting with RCU read side.

- security/keys/process_keys.c install_session_keyring(): change to
  synchronize_rcu(), since this is interacting with RCU read side.

Michael Holzheu 66a464dbc8 [PATCH] s390: debug feature changes
This patch changes the memory allocation method for the s390 debug feature.
Trace buffers had been allocated using the get_free_pages() function before.
Therefore it was not possible to get big memory areas in a running system due
to memory fragmentation.  Now the trace buffers are subdivided into several
subbuffers with pagesize.  Therefore it is now possible to allocate more
memory for the trace buffers and more trace records can be written.

In addition to that, dynamic specification of the size of the trace buffers is
implemented.  It is now possible to change the size of a trace buffer using a
new debugfs file instance.  When writing a number into this file, the trace
buffer size is changed to 'number * pagesize'.

In the past all the traces could be obtained from userspace by accessing files
in the "proc" filesystem.  Now with debugfs we have a new filesystem which
should be used for debugging purposes.  This patch moves the debug feature
from procfs to debugfs.

Since the interface of debug_register() changed, all device drivers, which use
the debug feature had to be adjusted.
