... because the "clock_event_device framework" already accounts for idle time through the "event_handler" function pointer in xen_timer_interrupt(). The patch is intended as the completion of [1]. It should fix the double idle times seen in PV guests' /proc/stat [2]. It should be orthogonal to stolen time accounting (the removed code seems to be isolated). The approach may be completely misguided. [1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/10/6/10 [2] http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2010-08/msg01068.html John took the time to retest this patch on top of v3.10 and reported: "idle time is correctly incremented for pv and hvm for the normal case, nohz=off and nohz=idle." so lets put this patch in.

Commit f447d56d introduced the implementation of the PV apic ipi interface. But there were some odd things (it seems none of which cause really any issue but maybe they should be cleaned up anyway): - xen_send_IPI_mask_allbutself (and by that xen_send_IPI_allbutself) ignore the passed in vector and only use the CALL_FUNCTION_SINGLE vector. While xen_send_IPI_all and xen_send_IPI_mask use the vector. - physflat_send_IPI_allbutself is declared unnecessarily. It is never used. This patch tries to clean up those things. Signed-off-by:

In commit 78d77df7 ("x86-64, init: Do not set NX bits on non-NX capable hardware") we added the early_pmd_flags that gets the NX bit set when a CPU supports NX. However, the new variable was marked __initdata, because the main _use_ of this is in an __init routine. However, the bit setting happens from secondary_startup_64(), which is called not only at bootup, but on every secondary CPU start. Including resuming from STR and at CPU hotplug time. So the value cannot be __initdata. Reported-bisected-and-tested-by:

schedule_mfi is supposed to be extracted from schedule(), and is used in thread_saved_pc and get_wchan. But, after optimization, schedule() is reduced to a sibling call to __schedule(), and no real frame info can be extracted. One solution is to compile schedule() with -fno-omit-frame-pointer and -fno-optimize-sibling-calls, but that will incur performance degradation. Another solution is to extract info from the real scheduler, __schedule, and this is the approache adopted here. This patch reads the __schedule address by either following the 'j' call in schedule if KALLSYMS is disabled or by using kallsyms_lookup_name to lookup __schedule if KALLSYMS is available, then, extracts schedule_mfi from __schedule frame info. This patch also fixes the "Can't analyze schedule() prologue" warning at boot time. Signed-off-by:

Given a function, get_frame_info() analyzes its instructions to figure out frame size and return address. get_frame_info() works as follows: 1. analyze up to 128 instructions if the function size is unknown 2. search for 'addiu/daddiu sp,sp,-immed' for frame size 3. search for 'sw ra,offset(sp)' for return address 4. end search when it sees jr/jal/jalr This leads to an issue when the given function is a sibling call, example shown as follows. 801ca110 <schedule>: 801ca110: 8f820000 lw v0,0(gp) 801ca114: 8c420000 lw v0,0(v0) 801ca118: 080726f0 j 801c9bc0 <__schedule> 801ca11c: 00000000 nop 801ca120 <io_schedule>: 801ca120: 27bdffe8 addiu sp,sp,-24 801ca124: 3c028022 lui v0,0x8022 801ca128: afbf0014 sw ra,20(sp) In this case, get_frame_info() cannot properly detect schedule's frame info, and eventually returns io_schedule's instead. This patch adds 'j' to the end search condition to workaround sibling call cases. Signed-off-by:

As reported: This problem was discovered when doing BGP traffic with the TCP MD5 option activated, where the following call chain caused a crash: * tcp_v4_rcv * tcp_v4_timewait_ack * tcp_v4_send_ack -> follow stack variable rep.th * tcp_v4_md5_hash_hdr * tcp_md5_hash_header * sg_init_one * sg_set_buf * virt_to_page I noticed that tcp_v4_send_reset uses a similar stack variable and also calls tcp_v4_md5_hash_hdr, so it has the same problem. The networking core can indirectly call virt_to_phys() on stack addresses, if this is done from PID 0, the stack will usually be in CKSEG0, so virt_to_phys() needs to work there as well Signed-off-by:

Kay Sievers noted that the ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK config, which enables some minor compile time optimization to avoid uncessary code in mostly the suspend/resume path could cause problems for userland. In particular, the dependency for RTC_HCTOSYS on !ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK, which avoids setting the time twice and simplifies suspend/resume, has the side effect of causing the /sys/class/rtc/rtcN/hctosys flag to always be zero, and this flag is commonly used by udev to setup the /dev/rtc symlink to /dev/rtcN, which can cause pain for older applications. While the udev rules could use some work to be less fragile, breaking userland should strongly be avoided. Additionally the compile time optimizations are fairly minor, and the code being optimized is likely to be reworked in the future, so lets revert this change. Reported-by:

The format of the lower 32-bits of the 64-bit operand to 'dc cisw' is unchanged from ARMv7 architecture and the upper bits are RES0. This implies that the 'way' field of the operand of 'dc cisw' occupies the bit-positions [31 .. (32-A)]. Due to the use of 64-bit extended operands to 'clz', the existing implementation of __flush_dcache_all is incorrectly placing the 'way' field in the bit-positions [63 .. (64-A)]. Signed-off-by:

Currently we only set the "to" address in the branch stack when the CPU explicitly gives us a value. Unfortunately it only does this for XL form branches (eg blr, bctr, bctar) and not I and B form branches (eg b, bc). Fortunately if we read the instruction from memory we can extract the offset of a branch and calculate the target address. This adds a function power_pmu_bhrb_to() to calculate the target/to address of the corresponding I and B form branches. It handles branches in both user and kernel spaces. It also plumbs this into the perf brhb reading code. Signed-off-by:

MSR_DE is not cleared on entry to the kernel, and we don't clear it explicitly outside of debug code. If we have MSR_DE set in prime_debug_regs(), and the new thread has events enabled in DBCR0 (e.g. ICMP is set in thread->dbsr0, even though it was cleared in the real DBCR0 when the thread got scheduled out), we'll end up taking a debug exception in the kernel when DBCR0 is loaded. DSRR0 will not point to an exception vector, and the kernel ends up hanging at kernel_dbg_exc. Fix this by always clearing MSR_DE when we load new debug state. Another observed source of kernel_dbg_exc hangs is with the branch taken event. If this event is active, but we take a non-debug trap (e.g. a TLB miss or an asynchronous interrupt) before the next branch. We end up taking a branch-taken debug exception on the initial branch instruction of the exception vector, but because the debug exception is DBSR_BT rather than DBSR_IC we branch to kernel_dbg_exc before even checking the DSRR0 address. Fix this by checking for DBSR_BT as well as DBSR_IC, which is what 32-bit does and what the comments suggest was intended in the 64-bit code as well. Signed-off-by:
