Fix TLB gather virtual address range invalidation corner cases

2013-08-16T15:52:46+00:00

Ben Tebulin reported:

 "Since v3.7.2 on two independent machines a very specific Git
  repository fails in 9/10 cases on git-fsck due to an SHA1/memory
  failures.  This only occurs on a very specific repository and can be
  reproduced stably on two independent laptops.  Git mailing list ran
  out of ideas and for me this looks like some very exotic kernel issue"

and bisected the failure to the backport of commit 53a59fc67f97 ("mm:
limit mmu_gather batching to fix soft lockups on !CONFIG_PREEMPT").

That commit itself is not actually buggy, but what it does is to make it
much more likely to hit the partial TLB invalidation case, since it
introduces a new case in tlb_next_batch() that previously only ever
happened when running out of memory.

The real bug is that the TLB gather virtual memory range setup is subtly
buggered.  It was introduced in commit 597e1c3580b7 ("mm/mmu_gather:
enable tlb flush range in generic mmu_gather"), and the range handling
was already fixed at least once in commit e6c495a96ce0 ("mm: fix the TLB
range flushed when __tlb_remove_page() runs out of slots"), but that fix
was not complete.

The problem with the TLB gather virtual address range is that it isn't
set up by the initial tlb_gather_mmu() initialization (which didn't get
the TLB range information), but it is set up ad-hoc later by the
functions that actually flush the TLB.  And so any such case that forgot
to update the TLB range entries would potentially miss TLB invalidates.

Rather than try to figure out exactly which particular ad-hoc range
setup was missing (I personally suspect it's the hugetlb case in
zap_huge_pmd(), which didn't have the same logic as zap_pte_range()
did), this patch just gets rid of the problem at the source: make the
TLB range information available to tlb_gather_mmu(), and initialize it
when initializing all the other tlb gather fields.

This makes the patch larger, but conceptually much simpler.  And the end
result is much more understandable; even if you want to play games with
partial ranges when invalidating the TLB contents in chunks, now the
range information is always there, and anybody who doesn't want to
bother with it won't introduce subtle bugs.

Ben verified that this fixes his problem.

s390/bitops: fix find_next_bit_left

2013-07-26T11:25:21+00:00

The find_next_bit_left function is broken if used with an offset which
is not a multiple of 64. The shift to mask the bits of a 64-bit word
not to search is in the wrong direction, the result can be either a
bit found smaller than the offset or failure to find a set bit.

s390/ptrace: PTRACE_TE_ABORT_RAND

2013-07-16T10:21:56+00:00

The patch implements a s390 specific ptrace request
PTRACE_TE_ABORT_RAND to modify the randomness of spontaneous
aborts of memory transactions of the transaction execution
facility. The data argument of the ptrace request is used to
specify the levels of randomness, 0 for normal operation, 1 to
abort every transaction at a random instruction, and 2 to abort
a random transaction at a random instruction. The default is 0
for normal operation.

Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
 "This is the powerpc changes for the 3.11 merge window.  In addition to
  the usual bug fixes and small updates, the main highlights are:

   - Support for transparent huge pages by Aneesh Kumar for 64-bit
     server processors.  This allows the use of 16M pages as transparent
     huge pages on kernels compiled with a 64K base page size.

   - Base VFIO support for KVM on power by Alexey Kardashevskiy

   - Wiring up of our nvram to the pstore infrastructure, including
     putting compressed oopses in there by Aruna Balakrishnaiah

   - Move, rework and improve our "EEH" (basically PCI error handling
     and recovery) infrastructure.  It is no longer specific to pseries
     but is now usable by the new "powernv" platform as well (no
     hypervisor) by Gavin Shan.

   - I fixed some bugs in our math-emu instruction decoding and made it
     usable to emulate some optional FP instructions on processors with
     hard FP that lack them (such as fsqrt on Freescale embedded
     processors).

   - Support for Power8 "Event Based Branch" facility by Michael
     Ellerman.  This facility allows what is basically "userspace
     interrupts" for performance monitor events.

   - A bunch of Transactional Memory vs.  Signals bug fixes and HW
     breakpoint/watchpoint fixes by Michael Neuling.

  And more ...  I appologize in advance if I've failed to highlight
  something that somebody deemed worth it."
