14 years agox86, mm: Correct the implementation of is_untracked_pat_range()

x86, mm: Correct the implementation of is_untracked_pat_range()

The semantics the PAT code expect of is_untracked_pat_range() is "is
this range completely contained inside the untracked region."  This
means that checkin 8a27138924f64d2f30c1022f909f74480046bc3f was
technically wrong, because the implementation needlessly confusing.

The sane interface is for it to take a semiclosed range like just
about everything else (as evidenced by the sheer number of "- 1"'s
removed by that patch) so change the actual implementation to match.

15 years agox86: Interleave emulated nodes over physical nodes
David Rientjes [Fri, 25 Sep 2009 22:20:09 +0000 (15:20 -0700)]
x86: Interleave emulated nodes over physical nodes

Add interleaved NUMA emulation support

This patch interleaves emulated nodes over the system's physical
nodes. This is required for interleave optimizations since
mempolicies, for example, operate by iterating over a nodemask and
act without knowledge of node distances.  It can also be used for
testing memory latencies and NUMA bugs in the kernel.

There're a couple of ways to do this:

 - divide the number of emulated nodes by the number of physical
   nodes and allocate the result on each physical node, or

 - allocate each successive emulated node on a different physical
   node until all memory is exhausted.

The disadvantage of the first option is, depending on the asymmetry
in node capacities of each physical node, emulated nodes may
substantially differ in size on a particular physical node compared
to another.

The disadvantage of the second option is, also depending on the
asymmetry in node capacities of each physical node, there may be
more emulated nodes allocated on a single physical node as another.

This patch implements the second option; we sacrifice the
possibility that we may have slightly more emulated nodes on a
particular physical node compared to another in lieu of node size
asymmetry.

 [ Note that "node capacity" of a physical node is not only a
   function of its addressable range, but also is affected by
   subtracting out the amount of reserved memory over that range.
   NUMA emulation only deals with available, non-reserved memory
   quantities. ]

We ensure there is at least a minimal amount of available memory
allocated to each node.  We also make sure that at least this
amount of available memory is available in ZONE_DMA32 for any node
that includes both ZONE_DMA32 and ZONE_NORMAL.

This patch also cleans the emulation code up by no longer passing
the statically allocated struct bootnode array among the various
functions. This init.data array is not allocated on the stack since
it may be very large and thus it may be accessed at file scope.

The WARN_ON() for nodes_cover_memory() when faking proximity
domains is removed since it relies on successive nodes always
having greater start addresses than previous nodes; with
interleaving this is no longer always true.

This is the counterpart to "x86: export k8 physical topology" for
SRAT. It is not as invasive because the acpi code already seperates
node setup into detection and registration steps, with the

acpi_numa_memory_affinity_init().  This is now moved to
acpi_scan_nodes() if NUMA emulation is disabled or deferred.

acpi_numa_init() now returns a value which specifies whether an
underlying SRAT was located.  If so, that topology can be used by
the emulation code to interleave emulated nodes over physical nodes
or to register the nodes for ACPI.

acpi_get_nodes() may now be used to export the srat physical

x86: Export k8 physical topology

To eventually interleave emulated nodes over physical nodes, we
need to know the physical topology of the machine without actually
registering it.  This does the k8 node setup in two parts:
detection and registration.  NUMA emulation can then used the
physical topology detected to setup the address ranges of emulated
nodes accordingly.  If emulation isn't used, the k8 nodes are
registered as normal.

Two formals are added to the x86 NUMA setup functions: `acpi' and
`k8'. These represent whether ACPI or K8 NUMA has been detected;
both cannot be true at the same time.  This specifies to the NUMA
emulation code whether an underlying physical NUMA topology exists
and which interface to use.

This patch deals solely with separating the k8 setup path into
Northbridge detection and registration steps and leaves the ACPI
changes for a subsequent patch.  The `acpi' formal is added here,
however, to avoid touching all the header files again in the next
patch.

This approach also ensures emulated nodes will not span physical
nodes so the true memory latency is not misrepresented.

k8_get_nodes() may now be used to export the k8 physical topology
of the machine for NUMA emulation.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14374

We simply can't do the USB handoff at FIXUP_HEADER time, since it will
often require us to have valid IO mappings etc.  But that in turn
requires a whole different approach, not this trivial one-liner.

Maybe we could teach all the USB quirk handoff handlers to only do the
quirk if the device has all its registers set up (since if it isn't
initialized, it's unlikely to be active), but regardless that will need
a whole lot more code than just saying "let's do it really early".

The proper fix is almost certainly to just leave the legacy IOMMU

USB: storage: When a device returns no sense data, call it a Hardware Error

This patch (as1294) fixes a problem that has plagued users for several
kernel releases.  Some USB mass-storage devices don't return any sense
data when they encounter certain kinds of errors.  The SCSI layer
interprets this to mean that the operation should be retried, and the
same thing happens -- over and over again with no limit.  In some
circumstances (such as when a bus reset occurs) that is the right
thing to do, but not here.

The patch checks for this condition (a transport failure with no sense
data) and changes the result code to DID_ERROR and the sense code to
Hardware Error.  This does get only a limited number of retries, and
so the command will fail relatively quickly instead of getting stuck
in an infinite loop.

 - Use tty_insert_flip_string instead of per character push when
   possible.
 - Fix stalled-read regression in 2.6.31 by using urb status to
   determine when port is closed rather than port count.
 - Fix race with open/close by checking ASYNCB_INITIALIZED in
   unthrottle.

Staging: p9auth: a few fixes

1. The memory into which we copy 'u1@u2' needs space for u1, @,
u2, and a final \0 which strcat copies in.
2. Strsep changes the value of its first argument.  So use a
temporary variable to pass to it, so we pass the original
value to kfree!
3. Allocate an extra char to user_buf, because we need a trailing \0
since we later kstrdup it.

I am about to send out an LTP testcase for this driver, but
in addition the correctness of the hashing can be verified as
follows:

 #include <stdio.h>
 #include <stdlib.h>
 #include <unistd.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
        char in[41], out[20];
        unsigned int v;
        int i, ret;

        ret = read(STDIN_FILENO, in, 40);
        if (ret != 40)
                exit(1);
        in[40] = '\0';
        for (i = 0; i < 20; i++) {
                sscanf(&in[2*i], "%02x", &v);
                out[i] = v;
        }
        write(STDOUT_FILENO, out, 20);
}
