If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Anton Blanchard commit 714332858bfd40dcf8f741498336d93875c23aa7 upstream. During a context switch we always restore the per thread DSCR value. If we aren't doing explicit DSCR management (ie thread.dscr_inherit == 0) and the default DSCR changed while the process has been sleeping we end up with the wrong value. Check thread.dscr_inherit and select the default DSCR or per thread DSCR as required. This was found with the following test case, when running with more threads than CPUs (ie forcing context switching): http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/dscr_default_test.c With the four patches applied I can run a combination of all test cases successfully at the same time: http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/dscr_default_test.c http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/dscr_explicit_test.c http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/dscr_inherit_test.c Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings --- arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c | 1 + arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_64.S | 23 +++++++++++++++++------ 2 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c b/arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c index 85b05c4..e899572 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c +++ b/arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c @@ -76,6 +76,7 @@ int main(void) DEFINE(SIGSEGV, SIGSEGV); DEFINE(NMI_MASK, NMI_MASK); DEFINE(THREAD_DSCR, offsetof(struct thread_struct, dscr)); + DEFINE(THREAD_DSCR_INHERIT, offsetof(struct thread_struct, dscr_inherit)); #else DEFINE(THREAD_INFO, offsetof(struct task_struct, stack)); #endif /* CONFIG_PPC64 */ diff --git a/arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_64.S b/arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_64.S index 4b01a25..b40e0b4 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_64.S +++ b/arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_64.S @@ -370,6 +370,12 @@ _GLOBAL(ret_from_fork) li r3,0 b syscall_exit + .section ".toc","aw" +DSCR_DEFAULT: + .tc dscr_default[TC],dscr_default + + .section ".text" + /* * This routine switches between two different tasks.
