x86_64 irq: use mask/unmask and proper locking in fixup_irqs()

Force irq migration path during cpu offline, is not using proper locks and
irq_chip mask/unmask routines.  This will result in some races(especially
the device generating the interrupt can see some inconsistent state,
resulting in issues like stuck irq,..).

Appended patch fixes the issue by taking proper lock and encapsulating
irq_chip set_affinity() with a mask() before and an unmask() after.

This fixes a MSI irq stuck issue reported by Darrick Wong.

There are several more general bugs in this area(irq migration in the
process context). For example,

 1. Possibility of missing edge triggered irq.
 2. Reliable method of migrating level triggered irq in the process context.

We plan to look and close these in the near future.

Eric says:
In addition even with the fix from Suresh there is still at least one
nasty hardware race in fixup_irqs().   However we exercise that code
path rarely enough that we are unlikely to hit it in the real world,
and that race seems to have existed since the code was merged.  And a
fix for that is not coming soon as it is an open investigation area
if we can fix irq migration to work outside of irq context or if
we have to rework the requirements imposed by the generic cpu hotplug
and layer on fixup_irqs().  So this may come up again.

[POWERPC] Fix subtle FP state corruption bug in signal return on SMP

This fixes a bug which can cause corruption of the floating-point state
on return from a signal handler.  If we have a signal handler that has
used the floating-point registers, and it happens to context-switch to
another task while copying the interrupted floating-point state from the
user stack into the thread struct (e.g. because of a page fault, or
because it gets preempted), the context switch code will think that the
FP registers contain valid FP state that needs to be copied into the
thread_struct, and will thus overwrite the values that the signal return
code has put into the thread_struct.

This can occur because we clear the MSR bits that indicate the presence
of valid FP state after copying the state into the thread_struct.  To fix
this we just move the clearing of the MSR bits to before the copy.  A
similar potential problem also occurs with the Altivec state, and this
fixes that in the same way.

either case, a function must preserve the register value for the caller.

acpi_copy_wakeup_routine overrides %ebx without saving it, this may corrupt
the called data.

Kevin found that most time the value of Sx is saved in %esi, however
sometimes compiler also uses %ebx.  When this happens, suspends fails since
sleep value in ebx is changed by acpi_copy_wakeup_routine.

The same funtion in X86_64 doesn't have this problem.

17 years agox86_64: fix misplaced `continue' in mce.c
Joshua Wise [Sun, 24 Jun 2007 00:16:45 +0000 (17:16 -0700)]
x86_64: fix misplaced `continue' in mce.c

Background:
  When a userspace application wants to know about machine check events, it
  opens /dev/mcelog and does a read(). Usually, we found that this interface
  works well, but in some cases, when the system was taking large numbers of
  machine check exceptions, the read() would hang. The system would output a
  soft-lockup warning, and the daemon reading from /dev/mcelog would suck up
  as much of a single CPU as it could spinning in system space.

Description:
  This patch fixes this bug. In particular, there was a "continue" inside a
  timeout loop that presumably was intended to break out of the outer loop,
  but instead caused the inner loop to continue. This patch also makes the
  condition for the break-out a little more evident by changing a
  !time_before to a time_after_eq.

Result:
  The read() no longer hangs in this test case.

Testing:
  On my system, I could replicate the bug with the following command:
    # for i in `seq 15000`; do ./inject_sbe.sh; done
  where inject_sbe.sh contains commands to inject a single-bit error into the
  next memory write transaction.

17 years agoconsole UTF-8 fixes (fix)
Egmont Koblinger [Sun, 24 Jun 2007 00:16:27 +0000 (17:16 -0700)]
console UTF-8 fixes (fix)

Recently my console UTF-8 patch went mainline.  Here is an additional patch
that fixes two nasty issues and improves a third one, namely:

1. My patch changed the behavior if a glyph is not found in the Unicode
   mapping table. Previously for Unicode values less than 256 or 512 the
   kernel tried to display the glyph from that position of the glyph table,
   which could lead to a different accented letter being displayed. I
   removed this fallback possibility and changed it to display the
   replacement symbol.

   As Behdad pointed out, some fonts (e.g. sun12x22 from the kbd package)
   lack Unicode mapping information, hence all you get is lots of question
   marks. Though theoretically it's actually a user-space bug (the font
   should be fixed), Behdad and I both believe that it'd be good to work
   around in the kernel by re-introducing the fallback solution for ASCII
   characters only. This sounds a quite reasonable decision, since all fonts
   ship the ASCII characters in the first 128 positions. This way users
   won't be surprised by lots of question marks just because s/he issued a
   not-so-perfectly parameterized setfont command. As this fallback is only
   re-introduced for code points below 128, you still won't see an accented
   letter replaced by another, but at least you'll always get the English
   letters right.

2. My patch introduced "question mark with inverted color attributes" as a
   last resort fallback glyph. Though it perfectly works on VGA console, on
   framebuffer you may end up with question marks that are highlighed but
   shouldn't be, and normal characters that are accidentally highlighed.
   This is caused by missing FLUSHes when changing the color attribute.

3. I've updated the table of double-width character based on Markus's
   updated version. Only ten new code poings (one interval) is added.

The correct solution would be to stop the timer, when the signal is
ignored and rearm it when SIG_IGN is removed. Unfortunately this
requires modification in sigaction and involves non trivial sighand
locking. It's too late in the release cycle for such a change.

For now we just keep the timer running and enforce that the timer only
fires every jiffie. This does not break anything as we keep the
overrun counter correct. It adds a little inaccuracy to the
timer_gettime() interface, but...

The more complex change is necessary anyway to fix another short
coming of the current implementation, which I discovered while looking
at this problem: A pending signal is discarded when SIG_IGN is set. In
case that a posixtimer signal is pending then it is discarded as well,
but when SIG_IGN is removed later nothing rearms the timer. This is
not new, it's that way since posix timers have been merged. So nothing
to worry about right now.

I have a working solution to fix all of this, but the impact is too
large for both stable and 2.6.22. I'm going to send it out for review
in the next days.

This should go into 2.6.21.stable as well.
