If another interrupt arrives before the timer has been correctly programmed (due to some other device on the same interrupt line, or CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ), this results in an extra unwanted interrupt event because the status bit is likely to be set from comparator matches that happened before the device was opened. Therefore, we have to ensure that the interrupt status bit is and stays cleared until we actually program the timer.

2010-10-26hpet: unmap unused I/O spaceJiri Slaby
When the initialization code in hpet finds a memory resource and does not find an IRQ, it does not unmap the memory resource previously mapped. There are buggy BIOSes which report resources exactly like this and what is worse the memory region bases point to normal RAM. This normally would not matter since the space is not touched. But when PAT is turned on, ioremap causes the page to be uncached and sets this bit in page->flags. Then when the page is about to be used by the allocator, it is reported as: BUG: Bad page state in process md5sum pfn:3ed00 page:ffffea0000dbd800 count:0 mapcount:0 mapping:(null) index:0x0 page flags: 0x20000001000000(uncached) Pid: 7956, comm: md5sum Not tainted 2.6.34-12-desktop #1 Call Trace: [<ffffffff810df851>] bad_page+0xb1/0x100 [<ffffffff810dfa45>] prep_new_page+0x1a5/0x1c0 [<ffffffff810dfe01>] get_page_from_freelist+0x3a1/0x640 [<ffffffff810e01af>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x10f/0x6b0 ... In this particular case: 1) HPET returns 3ed00000 as memory region base, but it is not in reserved ranges reported by the BIOS (excerpt): BIOS-e820: 0000000000100000 - 00000000af6cf000 (usable) BIOS-e820: 00000000af6cf000 - 00000000afdcf000 (reserved) 2) there is no IRQ resource reported by HPET method. On the other hand, the Intel HPET specs (1.0a) says (3.2.5.1): _CRS ( // Report 1K of memory consumed by this Timer Block memory range consumed // Optional: only used if BIOS allocates Interrupts [1] IRQs consumed ) [1] For case where Timer Block is configured to consume IRQ0/IRQ8 AND Legacy 8254/Legacy RTC hardware still exists, the device objects associated with 8254 & RTC devices should not report IRQ0/IRQ8 as "consumed resources". So in theory we should check whether if it is the case and use those interrupts instead. Anyway the address reported by the BIOS here is bogus, so non-presence of IRQ doesn't mean the "optional" part in point 2). Since I got no reply previously, fix this by simply unmapping the space when IRQ is not found and memory region was mapped previously. It would be probably more safe to walk the resources again and unmap appropriately depending on type. But as we now use only ioremap for both 2 memory resource types, it is not necessarily needed right now.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2009-09-24hpet: hpet driver periodic timer setup bug fixesNils Carlson
The periodic interrupt from drivers/char/hpet.c does not work correctly, both when using the periodic capability of the hardware and while emulating the periodic interrupt (when hardware does not support periodic mode). With timers capable of periodic interrupts, the comparator field is first set with the period value followed by set of hidden accumulator, which has the side effect of overwriting the comparator value. This results in wrong periodicity for the interrupts. For, periodic interrupts to work, following steps are necessary, in that order. * Set config with Tn_VAL_SET_CNF bit * Write to hidden accumulator, the value written is the time when the first interrupt should be generated * Write compartor with period interval for subsequent interrupts (http://www.intel.com/hardwaredesign/hpetspec_1.pdf ) When emulating periodic timer with timers not capable of periodic interrupt, driver is adding the period to counter value instead of comparator value, which causes slow drift when using this emulation. Also, driver seems to add hpetp->hp_delta both while setting up periodic interrupt and while emulating periodic interrupts with timers not capable of doing periodic interrupts. This hp_delta will result in slower than expected interrupt rate and should not be used while setting the interval.

On x86[-64], trying to register this clocksource results in potentially multiple hpet-based clocksources being registered, and if the ia64 one is chosen on x86_64 some users have experienced hangs. Eventually all three architectures may end up using the same code, but that is not the case right now.

2007-02-14[PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctlEric W. Biederman
The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name. Which is pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented. I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register duplicate sysctl entries. So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future enhancments harder. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-10-05IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

2006-04-02HPET: fix ACPI memory range length handlingBjorn Helgaas
ACPI address space descriptors contain _MIN, _MAX, and _LEN. _MIN and _MAX are the bounds within which the region can be moved (this is clarified in Table 6-38 of the ACPI 3.0 spec). We should use _LEN to determine the size of the region, not _MAX - _MIN + 1.

2006-02-15[PATCH] HPET: handle multiple ACPI EXTENDED_IRQ resourcesBjorn Helgaas
When the _CRS for a single HPET contains multiple EXTENDED_IRQ resources, we overwrote hdp->hd_nirqs every time we found one. So the driver worked when all the IRQs were described in a single EXTENDED_IRQ resource, but failed when multiple resources were used. (Strictly speaking, I think the latter is actually more correct, but both styles have been used.) Someday we should remove all the ACPI stuff from hpet.c and use PNP driver registration instead. But currently PNP_MAX_IRQ is 2, and HPETs often have more IRQs.

2005-12-10[ACPI] ACPICA 20050930Bob Moore
Completed a major overhaul of the Resource Manager code - specifically, optimizations in the area of the AML/internal resource conversion code. The code has been optimized to simplify and eliminate duplicated code, CPU stack use has been decreased by optimizing function parameters and local variables, and naming conventions across the manager have been standardized for clarity and ease of maintenance (this includes function, parameter, variable, and struct/typedef names.) All Resource Manager dispatch and information tables have been moved to a single location for clarity and ease of maintenance. One new file was created, named "rsinfo.c". The ACPI return macros (return_ACPI_STATUS, etc.) have been modified to guarantee that the argument is not evaluated twice, making them less prone to macro side-effects. However, since there exists the possibility of additional stack use if a particular compiler cannot optimize them (such as in the debug generation case), the original macros are optionally available. Note that some invocations of the return_VALUE macro may now cause size mismatch warnings; the return_UINT8 and return_UINT32 macros are provided to eliminate these. (From Randy Dunlap) Implemented a new mechanism to enable debug tracing for individual control methods. A new external interface, acpi_debug_trace(), is provided to enable this mechanism. The intent is to allow the host OS to easily enable and disable tracing for problematic control methods. This interface can be easily exposed to a user or debugger interface if desired. See the file psxface.c for details. acpi_ut_callocate() will now return a valid pointer if a length of zero is specified - a length of one is used and a warning is issued. This matches the behavior of acpi_ut_allocate(). Signed-off-by: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
