Yes, I know I said I would only do -rc6 and then the final 2.6.20, but the
thing is, the known regressions list didn't get whittled down as quickly
as I hoped, and as a result we now have a -rc7.
It's in good enough shape that I'd probably have been happy to just
release it as 2.6.20, but since I want 2.6.20 to be a stability release, I
didn't want to risk any stupid bugs while the regressions got fixed, so
here's a final -rc7.
In other words, please do give it a good testing. We should have fixed the
nasty stuff on Adrian's list (and here's another thanks to Adrian for
keeping me on my toes!) and it's all good. But please give it a quick
shake-down to make sure that nothing silly happened while fixing the bad
stuff.
The shortlog really does say most of it - this is just various fixes for a
number of mostly fairly inconsequential things, but the SG_IO timeout bug
that hit any NeroLinux user would quite possibly impact other DVD/CD
reader/writer programs too that used raw commands with timeouts.
The diffstat just looks like line-noise: 244 files changed with an average
of less than 10 lines per file changed in 179 commits. In other words,
really no big diffs: it's just a lot of really small stuff.

Pabel, can you detail more exactly which kernels don't work, and which do?
>From bugzilla:
- 2.6.18.x does work
- 2.6.19.2 doesn't work.
- what about plain 2.6.19?
- can you please test some of the 2.6.19-rcX kernels? Especially
2.6.19-rc1 would be good to test.
Since it apparently already happens in 2.6.19 (but it would be really good
to know exactly when it starts), and considering _where_ it happens, I'd
be inclined to blame commit d2e7b7d0: "fix potential stack overflow in
mm/slab.c" by Suresh.
When do_tune_cpucache() is called at bootup, I'm not sure how safe it is
to do the kzalloc() thing.
I've added a number of hopefully appropriate people to the Cc. Guys?
Apparently it only happens with MEMORY_HOTPLUG (and possibly with just an
SMP kernel on UP), which probably explains why it's been around without
people really complaining very loudly.

Fair enough, however sparse is not very happy about underfined symbols.

It's a clean boot on my P4/HT with dmesg looks more sense (for me) !

I discussed this with Yasunori Goto <y-goto@jp.fujitsu.com> (memory
hot-add developer):
"But this config uses CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_RESERVE which is made by
Andi Kleen-san and I don't know very well around here. And, I couldn't
reproduce this trouble on my box."
I cannot reproduce it with Pawel's config either.

urgh. zone->free_pages is very small - probably zero. We shouldn't have
got here at all, so something else is wrong.
But local `free_pages' can go negative in normal operation. I guess
that'll cause us to incorrectly return `true' from zone_watermark_ok, thus
ignoring the watermarks.
The below, I guess. But we still don't know why this got called against an
empty zone.

Ok, that commit is just totally broken.
If "free_pages" turns negative (which it can, since it's just doing a
long free_pages = z->free_pages - (1 << order) + 1;
to initialize it, and for all we know, you have an empty or close-to-empty
zone or two, the whole test to do
if (free_pages <= min + z->lowmem_reserve[classzone_idx])
return 0;
gets broken, because the negative 'free_pages' will look like a huge
unsigned positive number (and we'll make it unsigned becaue 'min' got
turned unsigned). There was a reason that thing was signed in the first
place, and neither me nor Andrew noticed.
Bad Nick. And bad me and Andrew for not noticing.
I should either revert that commit or just check for "free_pages" being
negative. The latter, in many ways, is probably better, because generally
we simply should never work with negative numbers in the kernel, so when
something potentially goes negative, we're probably just better off always
testing it explicitly anyway.
Nick, Andrew, any preferences?

It would be cleaner to check for negativity, but note that we keep
subtracting stuff from free_pages in the later loop, so we'd need to check
there as well.

Yeah, not worth it. I'll just revert it.
If we really want to do the micro-optimization that Nick was after, we can
just do
// 'min' is always positive
min = (unsigned long) min >> 1;
or something.

Sorry. I think I even wrote that comment at the top of the function.
And probably the function as well :(

As Andrew says, it would need to be checked each time, because we have
nothing synchronising against free_pages at the top, or nr_free in the
loop.
We could make them both unsigned, and _add_ everything to min rather than
subtracting from free_pages?

Yeah, that's the right thing to do, probably. However, since we do that
"min >>=1" thing, we'd have to do that to a separate "correction" factor
(also unsigned).
No worth it for 2.6.20. I just reverted it. But feel free to send the
fixed/updated micro-optimization after 2.6.20 has been released..

For me, both 2.6.20-rc6 and 2.6.20-rc7 fails while booting with initramfs
(initramfs that uses busybox) with "request_module: runaway loop modprobe
binfmt-0000" error.
So i modified kmod.c with [1] to get dump_stack, here is the picture taken
with [2] dump_stack enabled one with description below.
And here is the some observations that i made;
* Booting without an initramfs works,
* Booting with converted initrd from failed initramfs's content works,
* Booting with "Hello world" type initramfs described
in "Documentation/filesystems/ramfs-rootfs-initramfs.txt" works,
But what is not working is busybox binaries inside the _initramfs_, modifiying
our init shell script to use staticly linked bash with confirms that, bash
script interpretted without a problem by staticaly linked bash until
busybox's mount binary called inside the initramfs.
First i thought somehow busybox is broken but copying initramfs's content into
initrd works without a problem and also same binaries are working with 2.6.18
so i think its a regression in kernel but of course im not sure :), if you
need more information please ask.

That _usually_ just means that /sbin/modprobe is corrupt, or compiled with
a binfmt that itself needs a module to load.
Are you 100% certain that you didn't just happen to put an /sbin/modprobe
into your initramfs that happens to be a.out, with a.out being modular? Or
something similarly silly?
Actually, with that "binfmt-0000", I guess the most likely thing is a
corrupt /sbin/modprobe that isn't a valid binfmt format at all (but the
kernel won't know the difference between a missing binfmt thing and an
invalid one). It has bytes 2/3 being zero, which is neither ELF nor
a.out, methinks.
BUT! If that's not it, doing a "git bisect" to figure out exactly what
triggered it would be a wonderful idea..

I think i found the cause of the problem, initramfs can't handle hardlinks
anymore (which works with 2.6.18), copying same /sbin/busybox binary with
different names into initramfs (which ends ups with 50 MB image) or using
symbolic ones instead of hards seems works.

Ok, it would still be interesting to hear what triggered this.
There's really only two initramfs-related changes in the whole 2.6.20
development series that I can see, and neither of them are even _remotely_
likely to cause this, afaik. We have:
- commit 8d610dd52dd1da696e199e4b4545f33a2a5de5c6
"Make sure we populate the initroot filesystem late enough"
(but "late enough" is still _way_ before we actually mount it, so ..) and
- commit 2e591bbc0d563e12f5a260fbbca0df7d5810910e
"Make initramfs printk a warning on incorrect cpio type"
and the latter is just a build-time sanity-check.
Since 2.6.18, there's been a couple more, but none of them look even
remotely likely either. Which is why it really would be good if you can
"git bisect" this behaviour.
There _was_ a hardlink-related thing some time ago, but that was back in
May, and before 2.6.18. So if it worked for you in 2.6.18, I don't see
that being it.
I've added some initramfs people to the Cc: in case somebody has better
ideas, but in the absense of that, it really would be good to do that
bisection. Also, you might want to double-check that your cpio actually
generates a good initramfs image (it that it's not some user-mode upgrade
that caused it to stop working).

It would be interesting to know what the inode numbers are in the image;
also, what is the exact behaviour -- do you end up with a missing link,
or do both entries end up getting hard-linked to an empty file?

Judging by the
request_module: runaway loop modprobe binfmt-0000
one or more of the hardlinked binaries (modprobe being one, but not
necessarily the one that initially triggers hits) will read all zeroes-
Or at least bytes at offsets 2 and 3 will read as zero, causing it to not
be recognized as a proper binary, causing that "binfmt-0000" thing.

Or perhaps not read at all, which would explain the problem.
cpio represents a hard link as who headers with the same type and the
same file (inode) number and a link count that is > 1. Only the first
one contains data; the subsequent ones have length 0. It's fairly easy
for a bug in the decoder to truncate the file upon encountering the
second header, since this is somewhat of a special case (it would have
been better if the cpio format distinguished "hard link" explicitly, as
tar does.)
I will look into this as soon as I can, but as I'm currently in the
middle of job hunting it might take until the weekend.

What's the proper way to make sure that the fix, when it appears, ends up in
my inbox?

The kzalloc thing is safe as we have already successfully boostrapped
all kmalloc caches at that point. The per-CPU caches that are replaced
by do_tune_cpucache() point to boostrap-time array caches there (see
use of struct arraycache_init in setup_cpu_cache).

I started bisect with 2.6.19 and ended up with 2.6.20-rc7 and every step
worked without a problem with problematic initramfs script, so i think that
was a compilation failure or something else but currently 2.6.20-rc7 works

There are still a few things hanging around.
I have these queued:
aio-fix-buggy-put_ioctx-call-in-aio_complete-v2.patch
kexec-avoid-migration-of-already-disabled-irqs-ia64.patch
net-smc911x-match-up-spin-lock-unlock.patch
rtc-pcf8563-detect-polarity-of-century-bit-automatically.patch
alpha-fix-epoll-syscall-enumerations.patch
revert-blockdev-direct-io-back-to-2619-version.patch
scsi-sd-udev-accessing-an-uninitialized-scsi_disk-results-in-a-crash.patch
altix-more-acpi-prt-support.patch
which I'll get through to Linus later today. Plus:
- x86_64-irq-simplfy-__assign_irq_vector.patch and
x86_64-irq-handle-irqs-pending-in-irr-during-irq-migration.patch which
are big and scary. Am awaiting feedback from Andi and Eric on what to do
with these.
- A fix from Trond for http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7923.
Am awaiting acks to merge that.
- sky2-flow-control-off.patch from shemminger which I assume Linus will
be merging anyway.
- v9fs_vfs_mkdir-fix-a-double-free.patch which I guess I'll merge unless
Eric suddenly nacks it.
- I have r8169-fix-a-race-between-pci-probe-and-dev_open.patch floating
about, but I forget its status.
- I have efi-x86-pass-firmware-call-parameters-on-the-stack.patch, but
I'm not sure it's right and unless something really rapid happens, we'll
ship with that bug unfixed.
- enable-mouse-button-23-emulation-for-x86-macs.patch looks simple
enough, but I'm waiting for Ben to wake up.
- x86-fix-vdso-mapping-for-aout-executables.patch probably works OK, but
Andi points out that it'd be better to implement this with
attribute-weak. So I guess 2.6.20 will ship with non-functional a.out on
i386, like 2.6.29.

Would you forward the x86-64 dma_noncoherent API build fix I posted?
Anything that uses that API won't build on x86-64 without my [simple and
obvious] patch.

I posted a preferred patch (which someone then noted need to use
setup_timer), and am waiting for an "it works" response of some sort

I probably can't fix this bug. Not only do I doubt that the e1000 driver is at
fault here, I don't have a system with this particular chipset. Most likely the
regression comes from a combination of MSI layer rewrites and possibly platform
issues. We've seen many reports that are similar and all are on the platform
type mentioned here. I really don't want to point fingers here either.
None of the MSI code in e1000 has changed significantly either. as far as I can
see, the msi code in e1000 has not changed since 2.6.18. Nonetheless there's no
way I can debug any of this without a system.
I will address the fact that we are lacking any of these systems to test on, but
that is not going to get this issue handled (not to mention soon) in the way it
needs to be.
I strongly encourage the people on the linux-pci list to help out, I'll trace
the e1000 driver for suspicious activity (again), but I run countless tests on
the latest trees and nothing has shown up recently, other than Eric Biederman's
msi irq reclaim leak fix.
Perhaps Adam can git-bisect this issue? Adam?
Cheers,
Auke

Do we have any explanation about the weird /proc/interrupts output?
i.e. Multiple MSI irqs being assigned to the same card?
Does /sbin/ifconfig ethN down ; /sbin/ifconfig ethN up have anything to do
with the duplication in /proc/interrupts?
I can't see any way for a pci device that doesn't support msi-x to be assigned
multiple interrupts simultaneously.
I just skimmed through the code and there hasn't been any significant
generic MSI work since 2.6.19.
Did this device really work with MSI enabled in 2.6.19?

Things I can say:
- Works for me :-)
- When you look at the code, it's obvious that switching to -mregparm=3
changed the way we call into EFI runtime services. If you consider that
that old code was correct, then the patch is needed to keep the good
calling convention.
- It touches only arch/i386/kernel/efi.c which is compiled only with
CONFIG_EFI && X86
- It changes code that is called only when booted in EFI mode.
Last 2 points mean the user base is pretty limited, which can be taken
both as an argument to push it for the release or not to. I'd obviously
prefer that someone knowledgeable about EFI looks at it and ACKs before
it goes in.

OK, well here it is again for everyone's reviwing pleasure:
From: Frederic Riss <frederic.riss@gmail.com>
When calling into the EFI firmware, the parameters need to be passed on
the stack. The recent change to use -mregparm=3 breaks x86 EFI support.
This patch is needed to allow the new Intel-based Macs to suspend to ram
(efi.get_time is called during the suspend phase).

Wouldn't it be better to just declare the pointers in efi.systab with
the correct attribute? Then you wouldn't need all that ugly casting.

Was what I did in the initial patch:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/30/258
The issue is that the structure definition is used on multiple
architectures (for now ia64 and i386) which might used different calling
conventions. As Bjorn Helgaas pointed out, ia64 already has such wrapper
functions. I agree that the casting isn't the nicest thing, but I prefer
that to writing asm stubs.

Define a efilinkage macro then that expands to nothing on ia64
Probably asmlinkage would work already, syscall_linkage as used on ia64 doesn't
seem to affect function pointers.

No ifdefs, this should be somewhere in the headers for the EFI supporting
architectures
But I suspect you could actually get away with just using asmlinkage
(after reviewing the ia64 asmlinkage I think it's ok)
x86-64 when it is ever implemented will always need asm stubs though
because it uses completely incompatible calling conventions.

I assume you have double checked it actually works? (i vaguely recall some
issues with applying attributes to typedefs). If not you would need
to put them to the declarations.

Of course, I tested 10 suspend/resume cycles. This is with gcc 4.1.2, I
guess other compilers could mishandle it. Would you prefer the version
putting asmlinkage inside the struct definition?

But then it then throws 'assignment from incompatible pointer type'
warnings in efi.c. This would need fixing in arch/ia64 and arch/i386. Or
should I put it in the typdefs _and_ in the struct to be safe ?

I've never had this device work 100% with MSI on any kernel version I've
tested so far. But I'm not the original reporter of the problem, and I
believe for him it was a true regression where a previous kernel wored
correctly.
The behavior I observe on 2.6.19 is better than 2.6.20-rc7. Link status
interrupts seem to work but rx/tx does not. A few more details here:
<http://www.kroptech.com/~adk0212/mailimport/showmsg.php?msg_id=3339092450&db_name=linux_kernel>
I'm going to test 2.6.16 thru 2.6.20-rc7 this weekend and will report
back any variations in behavior I notice.

maybe I've been unclear, but here's how e1000 detects link changes:
1) by checking every 2 seconds in the watchdog by reading PHY registers
2) by receiving an interrupt from the NIC with the LSI bit in the interrupt
control register
if the link is down to start with, the watchdog will obviously spot a 'link up'
change since it doesn't use any interrupts.
The link interrupt (LSI) is a generic interrupt that comes over the same vector
(be it MSI or not) as RX interrupts, and in your case doesn't arrive at all,
which should be demonstrateable if you set e.g. the watchdog interval to 30
seconds and unplug the cable - the driver won't spot the link change until the
watchdog fires a lot later than you unplugged the cable.

that would be a good start, but I still think that you might have a broken
bridge on that system. Anyway, thanks for digging into this.

That would explain why I see link status changes but 0 interrupt count
in /proc/interrupts. However, on >= 2.6.19 the link state never changes.
Ever. It's always down. On <= 2.6.18 the link state does change but with
0 interupt count.

This does not seem to work on 2.6.19+. Unless the watchdog interval is
tens of minutes. I've waited at least 5 minutes and link never went up.

Right. The basic question is on a problem system are MSI interrupts
from the card in /proc/interrupts observed. If interrupts are not
observed (as it sounds like is the case) it is most likely something
outside of the card, and driver. If interrupts are observed but the
card does not work correctly it could be a card or driver bug.
Ok. In the archives I finally found the output of cat
/proc/interrupts and there were none.
This is a PCI-E to Hypertransport system from the lspci output.
Can I get the corresponding lspci -xxx output. I suspect the BIOS
did not program the hypertransport MSI mapping capabilities correctly.
All it has to do is set the enable but still, occasionally BIOS
writers miss the most amazing things.
If that is the case with just a little creativity we should be able to
write a pci quirk that will enable the MSI mapping capability on this
class of systems and save ourselves a lot of trouble.
Although I thought I did see a quirk that disabled MSI if the enable
bit was not set. Hmm.
Anyway please the lspci -xxx output. Although if someone could teach
lspci to decode the hypertransport MSI mapping capability so that
lspic -vvv gave us this information that would be great too.

that's explained by a driver change that did that. Since at initialization we're
basically waiting for a link change to tell the stack that we're up, we decided
to change the order to have the hardware fire an LSI interrupt to trigger a
watchdog run. So no interrupts would immediately explain why the watchdog never
runs. That's nothing to worry about for this problem, as soon as interrupts are
seen in /proc/interrupts this all starts working for e1000.

While I think we need to fix this issue, and in general the issue of MSI
interrupts on PCI-Express busses downstream of hypertransport chains.
This e1000 issue is not a regression, so not fixing it for 2.6.20 is
not a big deal.
I have yet to see all of the pieces I'm trying to look at confirmed,
but I believe by at least looking at the hypertransport MSI mapping
capability's enable bit in general we should be able to do a much
better job of detecting if MSI works in a system or not.
I though someone several months ago had made our MSI supported detect logic
a lot smarter, with defaults that were generally correct, but looking
at the kernel that code apparently never made it anywhere. Instead
all I see are a handful of common chipsets special cased by the quirk logic.
We should be able to do a lot better but not in the 2.6.20 time frame.
As for the original problem report with duplicate MSI interrupts in
/proc/interrupts. That sounds like a regression and is probably
simple to fix if we can get some more details.

Here you go. This is from 2.6.20-rc7.

Thanks. Conclusion. I could not find bit 16 (the enable bit) set in any of
your hypertransport msi mapping capabilities.
So MSI interrupts won't work until someone enables your chipset
to transform them into hypertransport interrupts.
Ideally it is a BIOS issue, but it may be the kind of thing we can
fix up with quirks in the kernel.

Naive question... Can the pci layer (or e1000) detect that MSI is not
enabled in the hardware and avoid using it in that case? With the number
of MSI problems showing up it seems risky to assume it's usable on any
given platform without some sort of sanity check.

Yes, that is what we should do. Start with the assumption MSI doesn't work
and enable it when we detect the hardware is setup properly.
Thing is that is going to take a little bit of work, and a little bit of
thinking on how to structure it properly. So in real time it is going
to be a couple of weeks before the code to do that is ready.
Right now the model is that piecemeal we put in the code to
conditionally turn off chipsets that are known to have problems.
Which for building a reliable system when MSI isn't mandatory for
operation seems backwards.
Probably in addition we should have a warning such as:
"Found devices supporting MSI and but chipset is unknown".

OK, I tried the following patch (simply adding asmlinkage to the
typedefs) with gcc 3.3, 3.4, 4.0 and 4.1. I couldn't easily try older
compilers.
New patch:
When calling into the EFI firmware, the parameters need to be passed on
the stack. The recent change to use -mregparm=3 breaks x86 EFI support.
This patch is needed to allow the new Intel-based Macs to suspend to ram
(efi.get_time is called during the suspend phase).

My gut feel is that EFI should be handled exactly the same way that we
used to handle APM: never even make it look like it's callable from C, but
make architecture-specific wrapper functions that have bog-standard
calling conventions, and then possibly even use inline asm to actually do
the real call (but even if you don't, at that point it would be inside one
particular arch-specific EFI source file - nobody outside of that would
ever call into the firmware directly).
As it is, I don't think I dare apply this right now, which means that it
will miss 2.6.20, and we'll have to backport it to the stable tree when
everybody agrees and has acked it. I don't like having suspend broken on
EFI macs, but on the other hand, I would hate to have an ia64 regression
even more..

I think Andi said that adding asmlinkage on the function pointers
shouldn't harm ia64. If you prefer wrapper functions, one of the patches
I sent ( http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/30/309 ) did that, but the casting
it uses looks clumsy.

I'm more comfortable with that one, at least for now. It's guaranteed to
not break ia64, at least. Also, it does what I think is right: do the
calling convention conversion at the call-site rather than at a C compiler
level.
Will apply a whitespace-fixed version,

asmlinkage is standard enough on ia64 as far as I can see.
It defines to an undocumented attribute that seems to only affect the
generated code for functions (basically it forces the compiler
to not reuse input arguments, similar to prevent_tail_call() on i386),
not for pointers.

Regardless. If we are serious about supporting EFI instead of just
nursing it along for the rare person stuck with it, we are going
to need to remove the brain-dead relocate exactly once to virtual addresses
call, so we can use kexec.
Therefore we will need a trampoline to switch to physical mode.
Of course that presumes the Open (but no one is allowed to read or implement
the standard, or join the committee ) EFI is sufficiently interesting at
some point to bother supporting properly.
