Any user on existing parisc 32- and 64bit-kernels can easily crash
the kernel and as such enforce a DSO.
A simple testcase is available here:
http://gsyprf10.external.hp.com/~deller/crash.tgz
The problem is introduced by the fact, that the handle_interruption()
crash handler calls the show_regs() function, which in turn tries to
unwind the stack by calling parisc_show_stack(). Since the stack contains
userspace addresses, a try to unwind the stack is dangerous and useless
and leads to the crash.
The fix is trivial: For userspace processes
a) avoid to unwind the stack, and
b) avoid to resolve userspace addresses to kernel symbol names.
While touching this code, I converted print_symbol() to %pS
printk formats and made parisc_show_stack() static.
An initial patch for this was written by Kyle McMartin back in August:

The conversion to write_begin/write_end interfaces had a bug where we
were passing a bad parameter to cifs_readpage_worker. Rather than
passing the page offset of the start of the write, we needed to pass the
offset of the beginning of the page. This was reliably showing up as
data corruption in the fsx-linux test from LTP.
It also became evident that this code was occasionally doing unnecessary
read calls. Optimize those away by using the PG_checked flag to indicate
that the unwritten part of the page has been initialized.

It is possible for a shadow page to have a parent link
pointing to a freed page. When zapping a high level table,
kvm_mmu_page_unlink_children fails to remove the parent_pte link.
For that to happen, the child must be unreachable via the shadow
tree, which can happen in shadow_walk_entry if the guest pte was
modified in between walk() and fetch(). Remove the parent pte
reference in such case.

Impact: new "power-tracer" ftrace plugin
This patch adds a C/P-state ftrace plugin that will generate
detailed statistics about the C/P-states that are being used,
so that we can look at detailed decisions that the C/P-state
code is making, rather than the too high level "average"
that we have today.
An example way of using this is:
mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug
echo cstate > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_enabled
sleep 1
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_enabled

Impact: locking fix
We can't call cpuset_cpus_allowed_locked() with the rq lock held.
However, the rq lock merely protects us from (1) cpu_online_mask changing
and (2) someone else changing p->cpus_allowed.
The first can't happen because we're being called from a cpu hotplug
notifier. The second doesn't really matter: we are forcing the task off
a CPU it was affine to, so we're not doing very well anyway.
So we remove the rq lock from this path, and all is good.

Impact: enhancement for function graph tracer
When run on a SMP box, the function graph tracer is confusing because
it shows the different CPUS as changes in the trace.
This patch adds the annotation of 'CPU[###]' where ### is a three digit
number. The output will look similar to this:
CPU[001] dput() {
CPU[000] } 726
CPU[001] } 487
CPU[000] do_softirq() {

CPU[000] rcu_process_callbacks() {

What makes this nice is that now you can grep the file and produce
readable format for a particular CPU.
# cat /debug/tracing/trace > /tmp/trace
# grep '^CPU\[000\]' /tmp/trace > /tmp/trace0
# grep '^CPU\[001\]' /tmp/trace > /tmp/trace1

Impact: feature
This patch sets a C-like output for the function graph tracing.
For this aim, we now call two handler for each function: one on the entry
and one other on return. This way we can draw a well-ordered call stack.
The pid of the previous trace is loosely stored to be compared against
the one of the current trace to see if there were a context switch.
Without this little feature, the call tree would seem broken at
some locations.
We could use the sched_tracer to capture these sched_events but this
way of processing is much more simpler.
2 spaces have been chosen for indentation to fit the screen while deep
calls. The time of execution in nanosecs is printed just after closed
braces, it seems more easy this way to find the corresponding function.
If the time was printed as a first column, it would be not so easy to
find the corresponding function if it is called on a deep depth.
I plan to output the return value but on 32 bits CPU, the return value
can be 32 or 64, and its difficult to guess on which case we are.
I don't know what would be the better solution on X86-32: only print
eax (low-part) or even edx (high-part).
Actually it's thee same problem when a function return a 8 bits value, the
high part of eax could contain junk values...

This should fix the SW-IOMMU bounce buffer starvation
seen ok kernel.org bugzilla 11811:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11811
Users on MacBook Pro 3.1/MacBook v2 would see something like:
DMA: Out of SW-IOMMU space for 4224 bytes at device 0000:0b:00.0
Unfortunately its only easy to trigger on MacBook Pro 3.1/MacBook v2
so far so its difficult to debug (even with swiotlb=force).
We were pci_unmap_single()'ing less bytes than what we called
for with pci_map_single() and as such we were starving
the swiotlb from its 64MB amount of bounce buffers. We remain
consistent and now always use sc->rxbufsize for RX. While at
it we update the beacon DMA maps as well to only use the data
portion of the skb, previous to this we were pci_map_single()'ing
more data for beaconing than what we tell the hardware it can use,
therefore pushing more iotlb abuse.
Still not sure why this is so easily triggerable on
MacBook Pro 3.1, it may be the hardware configuration
tends to use more memory > 3GB mark for DMA.

A workaround for AMD CPU family 11h erratum 311 might cause that the
P-state Status Register shows a "current P-state" which is larger than
the "current P-state limit" in P-state Current Limit Register. For the
wrong P-state value there is no ACPI _PSS object defined and
powernow-k8/cpufreq can't determine the proper CPU frequency for that
state.
As a consequence this can cause a panic during boot (potentially with
all recent kernel versions -- at least I have reproduced it with
various 2.6.27 kernels and with the current .28 series), as an
example:

Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
In short, aftereffect of the wrong P-state is that
cpufreq_stats_update() uses "-1" as index for some array in
cpufreq_stats_update (unsigned int cpu)
{
...
if (stat->time_in_state)
stat->time_in_state[stat->last_index] =
cputime64_add(stat->time_in_state[stat->last_index],
cputime_sub(cur_time, stat->last_time));
...
}
Fortunately, the wrong P-state value is returned only if the core is
in P-state 0. This fix solves the problem by detecting the
out-of-range P-state, ignoring it, and using "0" instead.

Impact: add new ftrace plugin
A prototype for a BTS ftrace plug-in.
The tracer collects branch trace in a cyclic buffer for each cpu.
The tracer is not configurable and the trace for each snapshot is
appended when doing cat /debug/tracing/trace.
This is a proof of concept that will be extended with future patches
to become a (hopefully) useful tool.
