| * SYSFS: Allow boot time switching between deprecated and modern sysfs layoutAndi Kleen2010-10-221-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I have some systems which need legacy sysfs due to old tools that are making assumptions that a directory can never be a symlink to another directory, and it's a big hazzle to compile separate kernels for them. This patch turns CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED into a run time option that can be switched on/off the kernel command line. This way the same binary can be used in both cases with just a option on the command line. The old CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 option is still there to set the default. I kept the weird name to not break existing config files. Also the compat code can be still completely disabled by undefining CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_SWITCH -- just the optimizer takes care of this now instead of lots of ifdefs. This makes the code look nicer. v2: This is an updated version on top of Kay's patch to only handle the block devices. I tested it on my old systems and that seems to work.

| * Dynamic Debug: Introduce ddebug_query= boot parameterThomas Renninger2010-10-221-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Dynamic debug lacks the ability to enable debug messages at boot time. One could patch initramfs or service startup scripts to write to /sys/../dynamic_debug/control, but this sucks. This patch makes it possible to pass a query in the same format one can write to /sys/../dynamic_debug/control via boot param. When dynamic debug gets initialized, this query will automatically be applied.

These hardware assisted virtualization techniques have outperformed the performance benefits provided by VMI in most of the workloads. VMware expects that these hardware features will be ubiquitous in a couple of years, as a result, VMware has started a phased retirement of this feature from the hypervisor. Please note that VMI has always been an optimization and non-VMI kernels still work fine on VMware's platform. Latest versions of VMware's product which support VMI are, Workstation 7.0 and VSphere 4.0 on ESX side, future maintainence releases for these products will continue supporting VMI. For more details about VMI retirement take a look at this, http://blogs.vmware.com/guestosguide/2009/09/vmi-retirement.html This feature removal was scheduled for 2.6.37 back in September 2009.

| * | PCI: PCIe: Ask BIOS for control of all native services at onceRafael J. Wysocki2010-08-241-7/+6

First, the BIOS may refuse to give control of the PCIe Capability Structure if it is not asked for any of the _OSC features depending on it at the same time. Second, the BIOS may assume that control of the _OSC features depending on the PCIe Capability Structure will be requested in the future and may behave incorrectly if that doesn't happen. For this reason, control of the PCIe Capability Structure should always be requested along with control of any other _OSC features that may depend on it (ie. PCIe native PME, PCIe native hot-plug, PCIe AER). Rework the PCIe port driver so that (1) it checks which native PCIe port services can be enabled, according to the BIOS, and (2) it requests control of all these services simultaneously. In particular, this causes pcie_portdrv_probe() to fail if the BIOS refuses to grant control of the PCIe Capability Structure, which means that no native PCIe port services can be enabled for the PCIe Root Complex the given port belongs to. If that happens, ASPM is disabled to avoid problems with mishandling it by the part of the PCIe hierarchy for which control of the PCIe Capability Structure has not been received. Make it possible to override this behavior using 'pcie_ports=native' (use the PCIe native services regardless of the BIOS response to the control request), or 'pcie_ports=compat' (do not use the PCIe native services at all). Accordingly, rework the existing PCIe port service drivers so that they don't request control of the services directly. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is not immediately clear what this option causes to become ignored. The actual meaning is that it is not necessary to unplug the emulated devices to safely use the PV ones, even if the platform does not support the unplug protocol. (pressumably the user will only add this option if they have ensured that their domain configuration is safe). I think xen_emul_unplug=unnecessary better captures this.

* | panic: keep blinking in spite of long spin timer modeTAMUKI Shoichi2010-08-111-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To keep panic_timeout accuracy when running under a hypervisor, the current implementation only spins on long time (1 second) calls to mdelay. That brings a good effect, but the problem is the keyboard LEDs don't blink at all on that situation. This patch changes to call to panic_blink_enter() between every mdelay and keeps blinking in spite of long spin timer mode. The time to call to mdelay is now 100ms. Even this change will keep panic_timeout accuracy enough when running under a hypervisor.

| * | | x86/PCI: Add option to not assign BAR's if not already assignedMike Habeck2010-07-301-0/+2
| |/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Linux kernel assigns BARs that a BIOS did not assign, most likely to handle broken BIOSes that didn't enumerate the devices correctly. On UV the BIOS purposely doesn't assign I/O BARs for certain devices/ drivers we know don't use them (examples, LSI SAS, Qlogic FC, ...). We purposely don't assign these I/O BARs because I/O Space is a very limited resource. There is only 64k of I/O Space, and in a PCIe topology that space gets divided up into 4k chucks (this is due to the fact that a pci-to-pci bridge's I/O decoder is aligned at 4k)... Thus a system can have at most 16 cards with I/O BARs: (64k / 4k = 16) SGI needs to scale to >16 devices with I/O BARs. So by not assigning I/O BARs on devices we know don't use them, we can do that (iff the kernel doesn't go and assign these BARs that the BIOS purposely didn't assign). This patch will not assign a resource to a device BAR if that BAR was not assigned by the BIOS, and the kernel cmdline option 'pci=nobar' was specified. This patch is closely modeled after the 'pci=norom' option that currently exists in the tree.

Using Ingo's suggestion, I combined the two functionalities into one file: kernel/watchdog.c. Now both the nmi_watchdog (or hardlockup detector) and softlockup detector sit on top of the perf event subsystem, which is run every 60 seconds or so to see if there are any lockups. To detect hardlockups, cpus not responding to interrupts, I implemented an hrtimer that runs 5 times for every perf event overflow event. If that stops counting on a cpu, then the cpu is most likely in trouble. To detect softlockups, tasks not yielding to the scheduler, I used the previous kthread idea that now gets kicked every time the hrtimer fires. If the kthread isn't being scheduled neither is anyone else and the warning is printed to the console. I tested this on x86_64 and both the softlockup and hardlockup paths work. V2: - cleaned up the Kconfig and softlockup combination - surrounded hardlockup cases with #ifdef CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS_NMI - seperated out the softlockup case from perf event subsystem - re-arranged the enabling/disabling nmi watchdog from proc space - added cpumasks for hardlockup failure cases - removed fallback to soft events if no PMU exists for hard events V3: - comment cleanups - drop support for older softlockup code - per_cpu cleanups - completely remove software clock base hardlockup detector - use per_cpu masking on hard/soft lockup detection - #ifdef cleanups - rename config option NMI_WATCHDOG to LOCKUP_DETECTOR - documentation additions V4: - documentation fixes - convert per_cpu to __get_cpu_var - powerpc compile fixes V5: - split apart warn flags for hard and soft lockups TODO: - figure out how to make an arch-agnostic clock2cycles call (if possible) to feed into perf events as a sample period [fweisbec: merged conflict patch] Signed-off-by: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com> Cc: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Cc: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> LKML-Reference: <1273266711-18706-2-git-send-email-dzickus@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>

* | | PCI/PM: Do not use native PCIe PME by defaultRafael J. Wysocki2010-06-181-1/+3
|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit c7f486567c1d0acd2e4166c47069835b9f75e77b (PCI PM: PCIe PME root port service driver) causes the native PCIe PME signaling to be used by default, if the BIOS allows the kernel to control the standard configuration registers of PCIe root ports. However, the native PCIe PME is coupled to the native PCIe hotplug and calling pcie_pme_acpi_setup() makes some BIOSes expect that the native PCIe hotplug will be used as well. That, in turn, causes problems to appear on systems where the PCIe hotplug driver is not loaded. The usual symptom, as reported by Jaroslav Kameník and others, is that the ACPI GPE associated with PCIe hotplug keeps firing continuously causing kacpid to take substantial percentage of CPU time. To work around this issue, change the default so that the native PCIe PME signaling is only used if directly requested with the help of the pcie_pme= command line switch.

Today we find that many invocations of "acpi=ht" are accidental, and thus is it possible that it is doing more harm than good. In 2.6.34, we warn on invocation of acpi=ht. In 2.6.35, we delete the boot option. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

The Linux kernel support implementation is quite simple and workable in NMI context. So it can be used to save hardware error record into flash in hardware error exception or NMI handler, where other more complex persistent storage such as disk is not usable. After saving hardware error records via ERST in hardware error exception or NMI handler, the error records can be retrieved and logged into disk or network after a clean reboot.

It is also still possible to use this functionality with or without the earlyprintk=dbgpX. It is possible to use the kgdbwait boot argument to debug very early in the kernel start up code. There are two ways to use this driver extension with a kernel boot argument. 1) kgdbdbgp=# -- Where # is the number of the usb debug controller You must use sysrq-g to break into the kernel debugger on another connection type other than the dbgp. 2) kgdbdbgp=#debugControlNum#,#Seconds# In this mode, the usb debug port is polled every #Seconds# for character input. It is possible to use gdb or press control-c to break into the kernel debugger. From the implementation perspective there are 3 high level changes. 1) Allow variable retries for the the hardware via dbgp_bulk_read(). The amount of retries for the dbgp_bulk_read() needed to be variable instead of fixed. We do not want to poll at all when the kernel is operating in interrupt driven mode. The polling only occurs if the kernel was booted when specifying some number of seconds via the kgdbdbgp boot argument (IE kgdbdbgp=0,1). In this case the loop count is reduced to 1 so as introduce the smallest amount of latency as possible. 2) Save the bulk IN endpoint address for use by the kgdb code. 3) The addition of the kgdb interface code. This consisted of adding in a character read function for the dbgp as well as a polling thread to allow the dbgp to interrupt the kernel execution. The rest is the typical kgdb I/O api.
