      "message": "[PATCH] vt: Make vt_pid a struct pid (making it pid wrap around safe).\n\nI took a good hard look at the locking and it appears the locking on vt_pid\nis the console semaphore.  Every modified path is called under the console\nsemaphore except reset_vc when it is called from fn_SAK or do_SAK both of\nwhich appear to be in interrupt context.  In addition I need to be careful\nbecause in the presence of an oops the console_sem may be arbitrarily\ndropped.\n\nWhich leads me to conclude the current locking is inadequate for my needs.\n\nGiven the weird cases we could hit because of oops printing instead of\nintroducing an extra spin lock to protect the data and keep the pid to\nsignal and the signal to send in sync, I have opted to use xchg on just the\nstruct pid * pointer instead.\n\nDue to console_sem we will stay in sync between vt_pid and vt_mode except\nfor a small window during a SAK, or oops handling.  SAK handling should\nkill any user space process that care, and oops handling we are broken\nanyway.  Besides the worst that can happen is that I try to send the wrong\nsignal.\n\nSigned-off-by: Eric W.

For this race to trigger the process that proc_pid_readdir stops at\nmust exit before readdir is called again.\n\nThis can cause ps to fail to report processes, and it is in violation of\nposix guarantees and normal application expectations with respect to\nreaddir.\n\nCurrently there is no way to work around this problem in user space short\nof providing a gargantuan buffer to user space so the directory read all\nhappens in on system call.\n\nThis patch implements the normal directory semantics for proc, that\nguarantee that a directory entry that is neither created nor destroyed\nwhile reading the directory entry will be returned.  For directory that are\neither created or destroyed during the readdir you may or may not see them.\n Furthermore you may seek to a directory offset you have previously seen.\n\nThese are the guarantee that ext[23] provides and that posix requires, and\nmore importantly that user space expects.  Plus it is a simple semantic to\nimplement reliable service.  It is just a matter of calling readdir a\nsecond time if you are wondering if something new has show up.\n\nThese better semantics are implemented by scanning through the pids in\nnumerical order and by making the file offset a pid plus a fixed offset.\n\nThe pid scan happens on the pid bitmap, which when you look at it is\nremarkably efficient for a brute force algorithm.  Given that a typical\ncache line is 64 bytes and thus covers space for 64*8 \u003d\u003d 200 pids.  There\nare only 40 cache lines for the entire 32K pid space.  A typical system\nwill have 100 pids or more so this is actually fewer cache lines we have to\nlook at to scan a linked list, and the worst case of having to scan the\nentire pid bitmap is pretty reasonable.\n\nIf we need something more efficient we can go to a more efficient data\nstructure for indexing the pids, but for now what we have should be\nsufficient.\n\nIn addition this takes no additional locks and is actually less code than\nwhat we are doing now.\n\nAlso another very subtle bug in this area has been fixed.  It is possible\nto catch a task in the middle of de_thread where a thread is assuming the\nthread of it\u0027s thread group leader.  This patch carefully handles that case\nso if we hit it we don\u0027t fail to return the pid, that is undergoing the\nde_thread dance.\n\nThanks to KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki \u003ckamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com\u003e for\nproviding the first fix, pointing this out and working on it.\n\n[oleg@tv-sign.ru: fix it]\nSigned-off-by: Eric W.

But it also provides some nicer semantics\nfor real hardware, by providing extra debug-proofing against using stale\nmappings, as well as ensuring that no stale mappings exist when changing the\ncacheability attributes of a page, which could lead to cache conflicts when\ntwo different types of mappings exist for the same page.\n\nSigned-off-by: Zachary Amsden \u003czach@vmware.com\u003e\nCc: Rusty Russell \u003crusty@rustcorp.com.au\u003e\nCc: Jeremy Fitzhardinge \u003cjeremy@xensource.com\u003e\nCc: Andi Kleen \u003cak@suse.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n"

This allows the TLB\npage flush to be contained in the same macro, and allows for an eager\noptimization - if reading the PTE initially returned dirty/accessed, we can\nassume the fact that no subsequent update to the PTE which cleared accessed /\ndirty has occurred, as the only way A/D bits can change without holding the\npage table lock is if a remote processor clears them.

      "message": "[PATCH] paravirt: lazy mmu mode hooks.patch\n\nImplement lazy MMU update hooks which are SMP safe for both direct and shadow\npage tables.  The idea is that PTE updates and page invalidations while in\nlazy mode can be batched into a single hypercall.  We use this in VMI for\nshadow page table synchronization, and it is a win.  It also can be used by\nPPC and for direct page tables on Xen.\n\nFor SMP, the enter / leave must happen under protection of the page table\nlocks for page tables which are being modified.  This is because otherwise,\nyou end up with stale state in the batched hypercall, which other CPUs can\nrace ahead of.  Doing this under the protection of the locks guarantees the\nsynchronization is correct, and also means that spurious faults which are\ngenerated during this window by remote CPUs are properly handled, as the page\nfault handler must re-check the PTE under protection of the same lock.\n\nSigned-off-by: Zachary Amsden \u003czach@vmware.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge \u003cjeremy@xensource.com\u003e\nCc: Rusty Russell \u003crusty@rustcorp.com.au\u003e\nCc: Andi Kleen \u003cak@suse.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n"

The core dump will be\nwritten to the standard input of that program instead of to a file.\n\nThis is useful for having automatic core dump analysis without filling up\ndisks.  The program can do some simple analysis and save only a summary of\nthe core dump.\n\nThe core dump proces will run with the privileges and in the name space of\nthe process that caused the core dump.\n\nI also increased the core pattern size to 128 bytes so that longer command\nlines fit.\n\nMost of the changes comes from allowing core dumps without seeks.  They are\nfairly straight forward though.\n\nOne small incompatibility is that if someone had a core pattern previously\nthat started with \u0027|\u0027 they will get suddenly new behaviour.  I think that\u0027s\nunlikely to be a real problem though.\n\nAdditional background:\n\n\u003e Very nice, do you happen to have a program that can accept this kind of\n\u003e input for crash dumps?  I\u0027m guessing that the embedded people will\n\u003e really want this functionality.\n\nI had a cheesy demo/prototype.  Basically it wrote the dump to a file again,\nran gdb on it to get a backtrace and wrote the summary to a shared directory.\nThen there was a simple CGI script to generate a \"top 10\" crashes HTML\nlisting.\n\nUnfortunately this still had the disadvantage to needing full disk space for a\ndump except for deleting it afterwards (in fact it was worse because over the\npipe holes didn\u0027t work so if you have a holey address map it would require\nmore space).\n\nFortunately gdb seems to be happy to handle /proc/pid/fd/xxx input pipes as\ncores (at least it worked with zsh\u0027s \u003d(cat core) syntax), so it would be\nlikely possible to do it without temporary space with a simple wrapper that\ncalls it in the right way.  I ran out of time before doing that though.\n\nThe demo prototype scripts weren\u0027t very good.  If there is really interest I\ncan dig them out (they are currently on a laptop disk on the desk with the\nlaptop itself being in service), but I would recommend to rewrite them for any\nserious application of this and fix the disk space problem.\n\nAlso to be really useful it should probably find a way to automatically fetch\nthe debuginfos (I cheated and just installed them in advance).  If nobody else\ndoes it I can probably do the rewrite myself again at some point.\n\nMy hope at some point was that desktops would support it in their builtin\ncrash reporters, but at least the KDE people I talked too seemed to be happy\nwith their user space only solution.\n\nAlan sayeth:\n\n  I don\u0027t believe that piping as such as neccessarily the right model, but\n  the ability to intercept and processes core dumps from user space is asked\n  for by many enterprise users as well.

This should still\nbe correct because we never modify existing PTEs. According to\nJames Bottomley:\n\nThe problem the flush_tlb_all() is trying to solve is to avoid stale tlb\nentries in the ioremap area.  We\u0027re just being conservative by flushing\non both map and unmap.  Technically what vmalloc/vfree does (only flush\nthe tlb on unmap) is just fine because it means that the only tlb\nentries in the remap area must belong to in-use mappings.\n\nSigned-off-by: Haavard Skinnemoen \u003chskinnemoen@atmel.com\u003e\nCc: Richard Henderson \u003crth@twiddle.net\u003e\nCc: Ivan Kokshaysky \u003cink@jurassic.park.msu.ru\u003e\nCc: Russell King \u003crmk@arm.linux.org.uk\u003e\nCc: Mikael Starvik \u003cstarvik@axis.com\u003e\nCc: Andi Kleen \u003cak@suse.de\u003e\nCc: \u003clinux-m32r@ml.linux-m32r.org\u003e\nCc: Ralf Baechle \u003cralf@linux-mips.org\u003e\nCc: Kyle McMartin \u003ckyle@parisc-linux.org\u003e\nCc: Martin Schwidefsky \u003cschwidefsky@de.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Paul Mundt \u003clethal@linux-sh.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n"
