2010-10-24i7core_edac: don't use a freed mci structMauro Carvalho Chehab
This is a nasty bug. Since kobject count will be reduced by zero by edac_mc_del_mc(), and this triggers the kobj release method, the mci memory will be freed automatically. So, all we have left is ctl_name, as shown by enabling debug: [ 80.822186] EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/edac_mc_sysfs.c, line at 1020: edac_remove_sysfs_mci_device() remove_link [ 80.832590] EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/edac_mc_sysfs.c, line at 1024: edac_remove_sysfs_mci_device() remove_mci_instance [ 80.843776] EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/edac_mc_sysfs.c, line at 640: edac_mci_control_release() mci instance idx=0 releasing [ 80.855163] EDAC MC: Removed device 0 for i7core_edac.c i7 core #0: DEV 0000:3f:03.0 [ 80.862936] EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/i7core_edac.c, line at 2089: (null): free structs [ 80.871134] EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/edac_mc.c, line at 238: edac_mc_free() [ 80.878379] EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/edac_mc_sysfs.c, line at 726: edac_mc_unregister_sysfs_main_kobj() [ 80.888043] EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/i7core_edac.c, line at 1232: drivers/edac/i7core_edac.c: i7core_put_devices() Also, kfree(mci) shouldn't happen at the kobj.release, as it happens when edac_remove_sysfs_mci_device() is called, but the logic is: edac_remove_sysfs_mci_device(mci); edac_printk(KERN_INFO, EDAC_MC, "Removed device %d for %s %s: DEV %s\n", mci->mc_idx, mci->mod_name, mci->ctl_name, edac_dev_name(mci)); So, as the edac_printk() needs the mci struct, this generates an OOPS.

There are two groups of sysfs attributes: one for rdimm and another for udimm. Instead of changing dynamically the unique static struct for handling udimm's, declare two vars and make them constant. This avoids the risk of having two or more memory controllers, each needing a different set of attributes. While here, use const on all places where it is applicable.

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.

Constify struct sysfs_ops. This is part of the ops structure constification effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al. Benefits of this constification: * prevents modification of data that is shared (referenced) by many other structure instances at runtime * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional) modification attempts on archs that enforce read-only kernel data at runtime * potentially better optimized code as the compiler can assume that the const data cannot be changed * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata and therefore exclude them from false sharing Signed-off-by: Emese Revfy <re.emese@gmail.com> Acked-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com> Acked-by: Matt Domsch <Matt_Domsch@dell.com> Acked-by: Maciej Sosnowski <maciej.sosnowski@intel.com> Acked-by: Hans J.

2008-07-25edac: core fix added newline to sysfs dimm labelsArthur Jones
The channel DIMM label does not seem to be used much in the edac code. However, where it is used (in the core code), it is assumed to not have a newline embedded. This leaves the sysfs file newline free which looks funny when cat'ing it. Here we just add the trailing newline to the sysfs chX_dimm_label output... [Doug Thompson note: the DIMM label is one of the primary uses of EDAC. User space daemon scripts, edac-utils@sourceforge, populate the DIMM label fields, via /sys/devices/system/edac attributes, with the silk screen labels of the motherboard in use. dmidecode access BIOS tables, but BIOS tables are well known to be incorrect and useless in these respects. edac-utils will strip off any newlines before its use of the output, when displaying DIMM slot silk screen labels.

When updating the edac_mc_poll_msec module parameter from the sysfs /sys/module/edac_core/parameters/edac_mc_poll_msec file, we don't update the workq timers. So that, if we move from a big poll time to a small one, the small one won't take effect until the big one has timed out. Here we provide a new module parameter set method to call out to the update routine. This brings the /sys/module/edac_core/parameters functionality up to that provided by the /sys/drivers/system/edac/mc sysfs module parameter files so that we can remove them or at least link to the /sys/module files...

This patch refactors the 'releasing' of kobjects for the edac_mc type of device. The correct pattern of kobject release is followed. As internal kobjs are allocated they bump a ref count on the top level kobj. It in turn has a module ref count on the edac_core module. When internal kobjects are released, they dec the ref count on the top level kobj. When the top level kobj reaches zero, it decrements the ref count on the edac_core object, allow it to be unloaded, as all resources have all now been released.

This patch adds the new 'class' of object to be managed, named: 'edac_device'. As a peer of the 'edac_mc' class of object, it provides a non-memory centric view of an ERROR DETECTING device in hardware. It provides a sysfs interface and an abstraction for varioius EDAC type devices. Multiple 'instances' within the class are possible, with each 'instance' able to have multiple 'blocks', and each 'block' having 'attributes'. At the 'block' level there are the 'ce_count' and 'ue_count' fields which the device driver can update and/or call edac_device_handle_XX() functions. At each higher level are additional 'total' count fields, which are a summation of counts below that level. This 'edac_device' has been used to capture and present ECC errors which are found in a a L1 and L2 system on a per CORE/CPU basis.

2007-07-19drivers/edac: split out functions to unique filesDouglas Thompson
This is a large patch to refactor the original EDAC module in the kernel and to break it up into better file granularity, such that each source file contains a given subsystem of the EDAC CORE. Originally, the EDAC 'core' was contained in one source file: edac_mc.c with it corresponding edac_mc.h file. Now, there are the following files: edac_module.c The main module init/exit function and other overhead edac_mc.c Code handling the edac_mc class of object edac_mc_sysfs.c Code handling for sysfs presentation edac_pci_sysfs.c Code handling for PCI sysfs presentation edac_core.h CORE .h include file for 'edac_mc' and 'edac_device' drivers edac_module.h Internal CORE .h include file This forms a foundation upon which a later patch can create the 'edac_device' class of object code in a new file 'edac_device.c'.
