It's olpc-xo1-wakeup.S, so I guess it needs a special makefile rule ??

I had trouble with this as well (and after flailing at it a bit, ended
up just dropping the olpc pm stuff from my tree for now). The build
failure is definitely config-specific. I suspected that it needs
something like the following, but failed to figure it out:
foo-y := olpc-xo1-wakeup.o
obj-$(CONFIG_OLPC_XO1) += olpc-xo1.o foo.o

timblogiw uses dma() interfaces and it selects TIMB_DMA for that
support. However, drivers/dma/ is not built unless
CONFIG_DMA_ENGINE is enabled, so select/enable that symbol also.

Sorry for slow response, been trying to use some of my last few vacation
days on vacation stuff ;-)
The below should run gripe free. Suppose I should learn to turn on
lockdep and whatnot when tinkering/testing.
Unfortunately, tip's update_shares() changes are still being difficult.
static void update_shares(int cpu)
{
struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq;
struct rq *rq = cpu_rq(cpu);
rcu_read_lock();
for_each_leaf_cfs_rq(rq, cfs_rq)
update_shares_cpu(cfs_rq->tg, cpu);
rcu_read_unlock();
}
Despite task groups being freed via rcu, update_shares_cup() hits freed
memory and explodes, and nothing I've tried has been able to stop it.
The only thing I haven't tried (aside from the right thing;) is to take
rcu out of the picture entirely.

Subject: [PATCH] sched: Improve desktop interactivity: Implement automated per session task groups
A recurring complaint from CFS users is that parallel kbuild has a negative
impact on desktop interactivity. This patch implements an idea from Linus,
to automatically create task groups. Currently, only per session autogroups
are implemented, but the patch leaves the way open for enhancement.
Implementation: each task's signal struct contains an inherited pointer to
a refcounted autogroup struct containing a task group pointer, the default
for all tasks pointing to the init_task_group. When a task calls setsid(),
a new task group is created, the process is moved into the new task group,
and a reference to the preveious task group is dropped. Child processes
inherit this task group thereafter, and increase it's refcount. When the
last thread of a process exits, the process's reference is dropped, such
that when the last process referencing an autogroup exits, the autogroup
is destroyed.
At runqueue selection time, IFF a task has no cgroup assignment, its current
autogroup is used.
Autogroup bandwidth is controllable via setting it's nice level through the
proc filesystem. cat /proc/<pid>/autogroup displays the task's group and the
group's nice level. echo <nice level> > /proc/<pid>/autogroup Sets the task
group's shares to the weight of nice <level> task. Setting nice level is rate
limited for !admin users due to the abuse risk of task group locking.
The feature is enabled from boot by default if CONFIG_SCHED_AUTOGROUP=y is
selected, but can be disabled via the boot option noautogroup, and can also
be turned on/off on the fly via..
echo [01] > /proc/sys/kernel/sched_autogroup_enabled.
..which will automatically move tasks to/from the root task group.

Ok, tty_reopen is called without TTY_LDISC set. For further
considerations, note tty_lock is held in tty_open. TTY_LDISC is cleared in:
1) __tty_hangup from tty_ldisc_hangup to tty_ldisc_enable. During this
section tty_lock is held.
2) tty_release via tty_ldisc_release till the end of tty existence. If
tty->count <= 1, tty_lock is taken, TTY_CLOSING bit set and then
tty_ldisc_release called. tty_reopen checks TTY_CLOSING before checking
TTY_LDISC.
3) tty_set_ldisc from tty_ldisc_halt to tty_ldisc_enable. We take
tty_lock, set TTY_LDISC_CHANGING, put tty_lock, do some other work, take
tty_lock, call tty_ldisc_enable, put tty_lock.
So the only option I see is 3) and we should do:

Oh, "do some other work" includes tty_ldisc_halt where TTY_LDISC is
cleared and tty_lock is _not_ held.

There are many WARNINGs like the following reported nowadays:
WARNING: at drivers/tty/tty_io.c:1331 tty_open+0x2a2/0x49a()
Hardware name: Latitude E6500
Modules linked in:
Pid: 1207, comm: plymouthd Not tainted 2.6.37-rc3-mmotm1123 #3
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff8103b189>] warn_slowpath_common+0x80/0x98
[<ffffffff8103b1b6>] warn_slowpath_null+0x15/0x17
[<ffffffff8128a3ab>] tty_open+0x2a2/0x49a
[<ffffffff810fd53f>] chrdev_open+0x11d/0x146
...
This means tty_reopen is called without TTY_LDISC set. For further
considerations, note tty_lock is held in tty_open. TTY_LDISC is cleared in:
1) __tty_hangup from tty_ldisc_hangup to tty_ldisc_enable. During this
section tty_lock is held.
2) tty_release via tty_ldisc_release till the end of tty existence. If
tty->count <= 1, tty_lock is taken, TTY_CLOSING bit set and then
tty_ldisc_release called. tty_reopen checks TTY_CLOSING before checking
TTY_LDISC.
3) tty_set_ldisc from tty_ldisc_halt to tty_ldisc_enable. We:
* take tty_lock, set TTY_LDISC_CHANGING, put tty_lock
* call tty_ldisc_halt (clear TTY_LDISC), tty_lock is _not_ held
* do some other work
* take tty_lock, call tty_ldisc_enable (set TTY_LDISC), put
tty_lock
So the only option I see is 3). The solution is to check
TTY_LDISC_CHANGING along with TTY_CLOSING in tty_reopen.
Nicely reproducible with two processes:
while (1) {
fd = open("/dev/ttyS1", O_RDWR);
if (fd < 0) {
warn("open");
continue;
}
close(fd);
}
--------
while (1) {
fd = open("/dev/ttyS1", O_RDWR);
ld1 = 0; ld2 = 2;
while (1) {
ioctl(fd, TIOCSETD, &ld1);
ioctl(fd, TIOCSETD, &ld2);
}
close(fd);
}

Doh, nice catch. I just built a couple test images and sent them out to

Unfortunately, users report this doesn't seem to fix things for them
(built against 2.6.36 (plus another patch you wrote iirc.))
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=630464#c27
I tried reverting the TTY patches between 2.6.36 and 2.6.35 and getting
them to test that, and it seems ok:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=630464#c30
So I guess there must be a race here somewhere... I'll keep looking. :/
I would imagine it's something that's probably existed since the dawn of
time but the BKL has just papered over entirely.
Thanks for trying!

Which patches exactly do you have? You need three of mine in 2.6.36.

Just tty-restore-tty_ldisc_wait_idle.patch on top of 2.6.36.1, I'll grab
the other two now.

Works if you build it in, but fails as above as a module.
And it looks like making it work as a module is not as easy as we
thought. I'll discuss this with Andres and get a new patch submitted
soon.

Hrm, I'm still seeing it on top of Linus' latest with that patch. :/
Even more bizarrely, I tried to come up with ways this could be failing,
and decided to test a few things...
I set_bit(TTY_DEBUG, &tty->flags) just before returning from
tty_init_dev (which, afaict, should be called for vc/tty$n and ptys?)
and then checked it with a similar WARN_ON in tty_reopen, and found that
I was hitting it fairly regularly.
As far as I can tell, for this to occur, we'd need something to open
/dev/tty1 first, which hits the tty_init_dev, and something else to very
closely follow that, hit the linking of driver->ttys[idx] and so skip
into tty_reopen, and smack into my WARN_ON.
Of course, given the locking, I have no idea how it could possibly be
happening.
I'm poking around to see, I think maybe something might be dropping
locks in the callchain that gives us a window where this might be
possible... I don't see any other way we could end up with tty1 having
TTY_LDISC unset.
(I'm poking in some more debugging, and moving the 'linking in' of the
device until after tty_ldisc_setup in tty_init_dev, but I'm not
particularly hopeful.)

Of course, that's the case:
clear_bit(TTY_LDISC, &tty->flags);
tty_unlock();
cancel_delayed_work_sync(&tty->buf.work);
mutex_unlock(&tty->ldisc_mutex);
tty_lock();
mutex_lock(&tty->ldisc_mutex);
in tty_ldisc_hangup. Hence my point 1) from previous posts doesn't hold too:
1) __tty_hangup from tty_ldisc_hangup to tty_ldisc_enable. During this
section tty_lock is held.
I will check, how to fix this.
thanks,

Is it fixed with the attached proof-of-concept patch?
So you need:
THIS ONE
TTY: don't allow reopen when ldisc is changing
TTY: ldisc, fix open flag handling
Char: TTY, restore tty_ldisc_wait_idle
The last one is in 2.6.37-rc2 already.

Shoved them all into a build and sent it out for testing, the tester who
was hitting it very frequently reports he hasn't seen it, so I think
you've managed to close the race window, awesome!
I rebooted my laptop continuously and didn't hit the WARN_ON as
well to confirm.

Is your new autogroup structure retaining a pointer to memory that
is freed by RCU?
If so, you will need to NULL out that pointer before the memory
in question is passed to call_rcu(). (Or before the call to
synchronize_rcu(), as the case may be.)
