Sukadev Bhattiprolu 820e45db23 statically initialize struct pid for swapper
Statically initialize a struct pid for the swapper process (pid_t == 0) and
attach it to init_task.  This is needed so task_pid(), task_pgrp() and
task_session() interfaces work on the swapper process also.

Sukadev Bhattiprolu e713d0dab2 attach_pid() with struct pid parameter
attach_pid() currently takes a pid_t and then uses find_pid() to find the
corresponding struct pid.  Sometimes we already have the struct pid.  We can
then skip find_pid() if attach_pid() were to take a struct pid parameter.

Miklos Szeredi 0ea9718016 consolidate generic_writepages and mpage_writepages
Clean up massive code duplication between mpage_writepages() and
generic_writepages().

The new generic function, write_cache_pages() takes a function pointer
argument, which will be called for each page to be written.

Maybe cifs_writepages() too can use this infrastructure, but I'm not
touching that with a ten-foot pole.

The upcoming page writeback support in fuse will also want this.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 2d3fbbb391 Add hard_irq_disable()
Some architectures, like powerpc, implement lazy disabling of interrupts.
That means that on those, local_irq_disable() doesn't actually disable
interrupts on the CPU, but only sets some per CPU flag which cause them to be
disabled only if an interrupt actually occurs.

However, in some cases, such as stop_machine, we really want interrupts to be
fully disabled.  For example, I have code using stop machine to do ECC error
injection, used to verify operations of the ECC hardware, that sort of thing.
It really needs to make sure that nothing is actually writing to memory while
the injection happens.  Similar examples can be found in other low level bits
and pieces.

This patch implements a generic hard_irq_disable() function which is meant to
be called -after- local_irq_disable() and ensures that interrupts are fully
disabled on that CPU.  The default implementation is a nop, though powerpc
does already provide an appropriate one.

Randy Dunlap 99eaf3c45f lib/hexdump
Based on ace_dump_mem() from Grant Likely for the Xilinx SystemACE
CompactFlash interface.

Add print_hex_dump() & hex_dumper() to lib/hexdump.c and linux/kernel.h.

This patch adds the functions print_hex_dump() & hex_dumper().
print_hex_dump() can be used to perform a hex + ASCII dump of data to
syslog, in an easily viewable format, thus providing a common text hex dump
format.

hex_dumper() provides a dump-to-memory function.  It converts one "line" of
output (16 bytes of input) at a time.

Example usages:
	print_hex_dump(KERN_DEBUG, DUMP_PREFIX_ADDRESS, frame->data, frame->len);
	hex_dumper(frame->data, frame->len, linebuf, sizeof(linebuf));

Example output using %DUMP_PREFIX_OFFSET:
0009ab42: 40414243 44454647 48494a4b 4c4d4e4f-@ABCDEFG HIJKLMNO
Example output using %DUMP_PREFIX_ADDRESS:
ffffffff88089af0: 70717273 74757677 78797a7b 7c7d7e7f-pqrstuvw xyz{|}~.

Eric Dumazet 6eaeeaba39 getrusage(): fill ru_inblock and ru_oublock fields if possible
If CONFIG_TASK_IO_ACCOUNTING is defined, we update io accounting counters for
each task.

This patch permits reporting of values using the well known getrusage()
syscall, filling ru_inblock and ru_oublock instead of null values.

As TASK_IO_ACCOUNTING currently counts bytes counts, we approximate blocks
count doing : nr_blocks = nr_bytes / 512

Example of use :

After patch is applied, /usr/bin/time command can now give a good
approximation of IO that the process had to do.

Neil Brown d89d87965d When stacked block devices are in-use (e.g. md or dm), the recursive calls
to generic_make_request can use up a lot of space, and we would rather they
didn't.

As generic_make_request is a void function, and as it is generally not
expected that it will have any effect immediately, it is safe to delay any
call to generic_make_request until there is sufficient stack space
available.

As ->bi_next is reserved for the driver to use, it can have no valid value
when generic_make_request is called, and as __make_request implicitly
assumes it will be NULL (ELEVATOR_BACK_MERGE fork of switch) we can be
certain that all callers set it to NULL.  We can therefore safely use
bi_next to link pending requests together, providing we clear it before
making the real call.

So, we choose to allow each thread to only be active in one
generic_make_request at a time.  If a subsequent (recursive) call is made,
the bio is linked into a per-thread list, and is handled when the active
call completes.

As the list of pending bios is per-thread, there are no locking issues to
worry about.

I say above that it is "safe to delay any call...".  There are, however,
some behaviours of a make_request_fn which would make it unsafe.  These
include any behaviour that assumes anything will have changed after a
recursive call to generic_make_request.

These could include:
 - waiting for that call to finish and call it's bi_end_io function.
   md use to sometimes do this (marking the superblock dirty before
   completing a write) but doesn't any more
 - inspecting the bio for fields that generic_make_request might
   change, such as bi_sector or bi_bdev.  It is hard to see a good
   reason for this, and I don't think anyone actually does it.
 - inspecing the queue to see if, e.g. it is 'full' yet.  Again, I
   think this is very unlikely to be useful, or to be done.

Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com> said:

 I can see nothing wrong with this in principle.

 For device-mapper at the moment though it's essential that, while the bio
 mappings may now get delayed, they still get processed in exactly
 the same order as they were passed to generic_make_request().

 My main concern is whether the timing changes implicit in this patch
 will make the rare data-corrupting races in the existing snapshot code
 more likely. (I'm working on a fix for these races, but the unfinished
 patch is already several hundred lines long.)

 It would be helpful if some people on this mailing list would test
 this patch in various scenarios and report back.

Hi,

I have been working on some code that detects abnormal events based on audit

when a program terminates due to segfault - which should never happen on a

patch that collects these events and sends them into the audit system.

Herbert Xu 572a103ded [NET] link_watch: Move link watch list into net_device
These days the link watch mechanism is an integral part of the
network subsystem as it manages the carrier status.  So it now
makes sense to allocate some memory for it in net_device rather
than allocating it on demand.

In fact, this is necessary because we can't tolerate a memory
allocation failure since that means we'd have to potentially
throw a link up event away.

It also simplifies the code greatly.

In doing so I discovered a subtle race condition in the use
of singleevent.  This race condition still exists (and is
somewhat magnified) without singleevent but it's now plugged
thanks to an smp_mb__before_clear_bit.

Christoph Lameter 894b8788d7 slub: support concurrent local and remote frees and allocs on a slab
Avoid atomic overhead in slab_alloc and slab_free

SLUB needs to use the slab_lock for the per cpu slabs to synchronize with
potential kfree operations.  This patch avoids that need by moving all free
objects onto a lockless_freelist.  The regular freelist continues to exist
and will be used to free objects.  So while we consume the
lockless_freelist the regular freelist may build up objects.

If we are out of objects on the lockless_freelist then we may check the
regular freelist.  If it has objects then we move those over to the
lockless_freelist and do this again.  There is a significant savings in
terms of atomic operations that have to be performed.

We can even free directly to the lockless_freelist if we know that we are
running on the same processor.  So this speeds up short lived objects.
They may be allocated and freed without taking the slab_lock.  This is
particular good for netperf.

In order to maximize the effect of the new faster hotpath we extract the
hottest performance pieces into inlined functions.  These are then inlined
into kmem_cache_alloc and kmem_cache_free.  So hotpath allocation and
freeing no longer requires a subroutine call within SLUB.

[I am not sure that it is worth doing this because it changes the easy to
read structure of slub just to reduce atomic ops.  However, there is
someone out there with a benchmark on 4 way and 8 way processor systems
that seems to show a 5% regression vs.  Slab.  Seems that the regression is
due to increased atomic operations use vs.  SLAB in SLUB).  I wonder if
this is applicable or discernable at all in a real workload?]

the EC code uses the ec_intr=1 mode by default, this causes these
operations to timeout, although they don't fail. In result, all
operations that you can do with the msi-laptop.c driver take more or
less 1s to complete, which is awfully slow.

In one of the more recent kernels (2.6.20?) the EC subsystem has been
revamped. With that change the EC timeout has been increased. before
that increase the MSI EC accesses were slow -- but not *that* slow,
hence I took notice of this limitation of the MSI EC hardware only very
recently.

The standard EC operations on the MSI EC as defined in the ACPI spec
support GPE events properly.

The following patch adds a new argument "force_poll" to the
ec_transaction() function (and friends). If set to 1, the function
will poll for IBF/OBF even if ec_intr=1 is enabled. If set to 0 the
current behaviour is used. The msi-laptop driver is modified to make
use of this new flag, so that OBF/IBF is polled for the special MSI EC
transactions -- but only for them.

Linus Torvalds 44ce6294d0 Revert "md: improve partition detection in md array"
This reverts commit 5b479c91da.

Quoth Neil Brown:

  "It causes an oops when auto-detecting raid arrays, and it doesn't
   seem easy to fix.

   The array may not be 'open' when do_md_run is called, so
   bdev->bd_disk might be NULL, so bd_set_size can oops.

   This whole approach of opening an md device before it has been
   assembled just seems to get more and more painful.  I think I'm going
   to have to come up with something clever to provide both backward
   comparability with usage expectation, and sane integration into the
   rest of the kernel."

Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz 6d208b39c4 ide: legacy PCI bus order probing fixes
IDE PCI host drivers should register themselves with IDE core only when
IDE driver is built-in, otherwise (IDE driver is modular and thus IDE PCI
host drivers are also modular) the code has no effect and just complicates
the probing.

Fix it by adding new config option CONFIG_IDEPCI_PCIBUS (defined only when
needed and invisible to the user) and covering by #ifdef/#endif the code
in question.  It turned out that "ide=reverse" was silently accepted but did
nothing in case when IDE driver was modular, this is fixed now.

Tejun's recent eighty_ninty_three() fix has inspired me to do more thorough
review of the cable detection code...

* print user-friendly warning about limiting the maximum transfer speed
  to UDMA33 (and the reason behind it) when 80-wire cable is not detected,
  also while at it cleanup eighty_ninty_three() a bit

* use eighty_ninty_three() in ide_ata66_check(), this actually fixes 3 bugs:
  - bit 14 (word 93 validity check) == 1 && bit 13 (80-wire cable test) == 1
    were used as 80-wire cable present test for CONFIG_IDEDMA_IVB=n case
    (please see FIXME comment in eighty_ninty_three() for more details)
  - CONFIG_IDEDMA_IVB=y/n cases were interchanged
  - check for SATA devices was missing

* remove private cable warnings from pdc_202xx{old,new} drivers now that core
  code provides this functionality (plus, in pdc202xx_new case the test could
  give false warnings for ATAPI devices because pdc202xx_new driver doesn't
  even support ATAPI DMA)

However that doesn't happen until the array is opened, which is later

__used is defined to be __attribute__((unused)) for all pre-3.3 gcc
compilers to suppress warnings for unused functions because perhaps they
are referenced only in inline assembly.  It is defined to be
__attribute__((used)) for gcc 3.3 and later so that the code is still
emitted for such functions.

__maybe_unused is defined to be __attribute__((unused)) for both function
and variable use if it could possibly be unreferenced due to the evaluation
of preprocessor macros.  Function prototypes shall be marked with
__maybe_unused if the actual definition of the function is dependant on
preprocessor macros.

No update to compiler-intel.h is necessary because ICC supports both
__attribute__((used)) and __attribute__((unused)) as specified by the gcc
manual.

__attribute_used__ is deprecated and will be removed once all current
code is converted to using __used.

Christoph Lameter 4037d45220 Move remote node draining out of slab allocators
Currently the slab allocators contain callbacks into the page allocator to
perform the draining of pagesets on remote nodes.  This requires SLUB to have
a whole subsystem in order to be compatible with SLAB.  Moving node draining
out of the slab allocators avoids a section of code in SLUB.

Move the node draining so that is is done when the vm statistics are updated.
At that point we are already touching all the cachelines with the pagesets of
a processor.

Add a expire counter there.  If we have to update per zone or global vm
statistics then assume that the pageset will require subsequent draining.

The expire counter will be decremented on each vm stats update pass until it
reaches zero.  Then we will drain one batch from the pageset.  The draining
will cause vm counter updates which will then cause another expiration until
the pcp is empty.  So we will drain a batch every 3 seconds.

Note that remote node draining is a somewhat esoteric feature that is required
on large NUMA systems because otherwise significant portions of system memory
can become trapped in pcp queues.  The number of pcp is determined by the
number of processors and nodes in a system.  A system with 4 processors and 2
nodes has 8 pcps which is okay.  But a system with 1024 processors and 512
nodes has 512k pcps with a high potential for large amount of memory being
caught in them.

Christoph Lameter d1187ed210 vmstat: use our own timer events
vmstat is currently using the cache reaper to periodically bring the
statistics up to date.  The cache reaper does only exists in SLUB as a way to
provide compatibility with SLAB.  This patch removes the vmstat calls from the
slab allocators and provides its own handling.

The advantage is also that we can use a different frequency for the updates.
Refreshing vm stats is a pretty fast job so we can run this every second and
stagger this by only one tick.  This will lead to some overlap in large
systems.  F.e a system running at 250 HZ with 1024 processors will have 4 vm
updates occurring at once.

However, the vm stats update only accesses per node information.  It is only
necessary to stagger the vm statistics updates per processor in each node.  Vm
counter updates occurring on distant nodes will not cause cacheline
contention.

We could implement an alternate approach that runs the first processor on each
node at the second and then each of the other processor on a node on a
subsequent tick.  That may be useful to keep a large amount of the second free
of timer activity.  Maybe the timer folks will have some feedback on this one?

Rafael J. Wysocki 8bb7844286 Add suspend-related notifications for CPU hotplug
Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been
frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need
special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware
subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events
related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress.  This
patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during
suspend and resume transitions.  It also changes all of the
CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration
(for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal"
ones).

Nate Diller 01f2705daf fs: convert core functions to zero_user_page
It's very common for file systems to need to zero part or all of a page,
the simplist way is just to use kmap_atomic() and memset().  There's
actually a library function in include/linux/highmem.h that does exactly
that, but it's confusingly named memclear_highpage_flush(), which is
descriptive of *how* it does the work rather than what the *purpose* is.
So this patchset renames the function to zero_user_page(), and calls it
from the various places that currently open code it.

This first patch introduces the new function call, and converts all the
core kernel callsites, both the open-coded ones and the old
memclear_highpage_flush() ones.  Following this patch is a series of
conversions for each file system individually, per AKPM, and finally a
patch deprecating the old call.  The diffstat below shows the entire
patchset.

Eric Dumazet 34f01cc1f5 FUTEX: new PRIVATE futexes
Analysis of current linux futex code :
  --------------------------------------

A central hash table futex_queues[] holds all contexts (futex_q) of waiting
threads.

Each futex_wait()/futex_wait() has to obtain a spinlock on a hash slot to
perform lookups or insert/deletion of a futex_q.

When a futex_wait() is done, calling thread has to :

1) - Obtain a read lock on mmap_sem to be able to validate the user pointer
     (calling find_vma()). This validation tells us if the futex uses
     an inode based store (mapped file), or mm based store (anonymous mem)

2) - compute a hash key

3) - Atomic increment of reference counter on an inode or a mm_struct

4) - lock part of futex_queues[] hash table

5) - perform the test on value of futex.
	(rollback is value != expected_value, returns EWOULDBLOCK)
	(various loops if test triggers mm faults)

6) queue the context into hash table, release the lock got in 4)

7) - release the read_lock on mmap_sem

   <block>

8) Eventually unqueue the context (but rarely, as this part  may be done
   by the futex_wake())

Futexes were designed to improve scalability but current implementation has
various problems :

- Central hashtable :

  This means scalability problems if many processes/threads want to use
  futexes at the same time.
  This means NUMA unbalance because this hashtable is located on one node.

- Using mmap_sem on every futex() syscall :

  Even if mmap_sem is a rw_semaphore, up_read()/down_read() are doing atomic
  ops on mmap_sem, dirtying cache line :
    - lot of cache line ping pongs on SMP configurations.

  mmap_sem is also extensively used by mm code (page faults, mmap()/munmap())
  Highly threaded processes might suffer from mmap_sem contention.

  mmap_sem is also used by oprofile code. Enabling oprofile hurts threaded
  programs because of contention on the mmap_sem cache line.

- Using an atomic_inc()/atomic_dec() on inode ref counter or mm ref counter:
  It's also a cache line ping pong on SMP. It also increases mmap_sem hold time
  because of cache misses.

Most of these scalability problems come from the fact that futexes are in
one global namespace.  As we use a central hash table, we must make sure
they are all using the same reference (given by the mm subsystem).  We
chose to force all futexes be 'shared'.  This has a cost.

But fact is POSIX defined PRIVATE and SHARED, allowing clear separation,
and optimal performance if carefuly implemented.  Time has come for linux
to have better threading performance.

The goal is to permit new futex commands to avoid :
 - Taking the mmap_sem semaphore, conflicting with other subsystems.
 - Modifying a ref_count on mm or an inode, still conflicting with mm or fs.

This is possible because, for one process using PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE
futexes, we only need to distinguish futexes by their virtual address, no
matter the underlying mm storage is.

If glibc wants to exploit this new infrastructure, it should use new
_PRIVATE futex subcommands for PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE futexes.  And be
prepared to fallback on old subcommands for old kernels.  Using one global
variable with the FUTEX_PRIVATE_FLAG or 0 value should be OK.

PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED futexes should still use the old subcommands.

Compatibility with old applications is preserved, they still hit the
scalability problems, but new applications can fly :)

Note : the same SHARED futex (mapped on a file) can be used by old binaries
*and* new binaries, because both binaries will use the old subcommands.

Note : Vast majority of futexes should be using PROCESS_PRIVATE semantic,
as this is the default semantic. Almost all applications should benefit
of this changes (new kernel and updated libc)

This patch provides the futex_requeue_pi functionality, which allows some
threads waiting on a normal futex to be requeued on the wait-queue of a
PI-futex.

This provides an optimization, already used for (normal) futexes, to be used
with the PI-futexes.

This optimization is currently used by the glibc in pthread_broadcast, when
using "normal" mutexes.  With futex_requeue_pi, it can be used with
PRIO_INHERIT mutexes too.

Pierre Peiffer c19384b5b2 Make futex_wait() use an hrtimer for timeout
This patch modifies futex_wait() to use an hrtimer + schedule() in place of
schedule_timeout().

schedule_timeout() is tick based, therefore the timeout granularity is the
tick (1 ms, 4 ms or 10 ms depending on HZ).  By using a high resolution timer
for timeout wakeup, we can attain a much finer timeout granularity (in the
microsecond range).  This parallels what is already done for futex_lock_pi().

The timeout passed to the syscall is no longer converted to jiffies and is
therefore passed to do_futex() and futex_wait() as an absolute ktime_t
therefore keeping nanosecond resolution.

Also this removes the need to pass the nanoseconds timeout part to
futex_lock_pi() in val2.

In futex_wait(), if there is no timeout then a regular schedule() is
performed.  Otherwise, an hrtimer is fired before schedule() is called.

Jeff Layton cd123012d9 RPC: add wrapper for svc_reserve to account for checksum
When the kernel calls svc_reserve to downsize the expected size of an RPC
reply, it fails to account for the possibility of a checksum at the end of
the packet.  If a client mounts a NFSv2/3 with sec=krb5i/p, and does I/O
then you'll generally see messages similar to this in the server's ring
buffer:

RPC request reserved 164 but used 208

While I was never able to verify it, I suspect that this problem is also
the root cause of some oopses I've seen under these conditions:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=227726

This is probably also a problem for other sec= types and for NFSv4.  The
large reserved size for NFSv4 compound packets seems to generally paper
over the problem, however.

This patch adds a wrapper for svc_reserve that accounts for the possibility
of a checksum.  It also fixes up the appropriate callers of svc_reserve to
call the wrapper.  For now, it just uses a hardcoded value that I
determined via testing.  That value may need to be revised upward as things
change, or we may want to eventually add a new auth_op that attempts to
calculate this somehow.

Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a good way to reliably determine
the expected checksum length prior to actually calculating it, particularly
with schemes like spkm3.

Oleg Nesterov 10ab825bde change kernel threads to ignore signals instead of blocking them
Currently kernel threads use sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK) to protect against
signals.  This doesn't prevent the signal delivery, this only blocks
signal_wake_up().  Every "killall -33 kthreadd" means a "struct siginfo"
leak.

Change kthreadd_setup() to set all handlers to SIG_IGN instead of blocking
them (make a new helper ignore_signals() for that).  If the kernel thread
needs some signal, it should use allow_signal() anyway, and in that case it
should not use CLONE_SIGHAND.

Note that we can't change daemonize() (should die!) in the same way,
because it can be used along with CLONE_SIGHAND.  This means that
allow_signal() still should unblock the signal to work correctly with
daemonize()ed threads.

However, disallow_signal() doesn't block the signal any longer but ignores
it.

NOTE: with or without this patch the kernel threads are not protected from
handle_stop_signal(), this seems harmless, but not good.

Eric W. Biederman 73c279927f kthread: don't depend on work queues
Currently there is a circular reference between work queue initialization
and kthread initialization.  This prevents the kthread infrastructure from
initializing until after work queues have been initialized.

We want the properties of tasks created with kthread_create to be as close
as possible to the init_task and to not be contaminated by user processes.
The later we start our kthreadd that creates these tasks the harder it is
to avoid contamination from user processes and the more of a mess we have
to clean up because the defaults have changed on us.

So this patch modifies the kthread support to not use work queues but to
instead use a simple list of structures, and to have kthreadd start from
init_task immediately after our kernel thread that execs /sbin/init.

By being a true child of init_task we only have to change those process
settings that we want to have different from init_task, such as our process
name, the cpus that are allowed, blocking all signals and setting SIGCHLD
to SIG_IGN so that all of our children are reaped automatically.

By being a true child of init_task we also naturally get our ppid set to 0
and do not wind up as a child of PID == 1.  Ensuring that tasks generated
by kthread_create will not slow down the functioning of the wait family of
functions.

Gautham R Shenoy baaca49f41 Define and use new events,CPU_LOCK_ACQUIRE and CPU_LOCK_RELEASE
This is an attempt to provide an alternate mechanism for postponing
a hotplug event instead of using a global mechanism like lock_cpu_hotplug.

The proposal is to add two new events namely CPU_LOCK_ACQUIRE and
CPU_LOCK_RELEASE. The notification for these two events would be sent
out before and after a cpu_hotplug event respectively.

During the CPU_LOCK_ACQUIRE event, a cpu-hotplug-aware subsystem is
supposed to acquire any per-subsystem hotcpu mutex ( Eg. workqueue_mutex
in kernel/workqueue.c ).

During the CPU_LOCK_RELEASE release event the cpu-hotplug-aware subsystem
is supposed to release the per-subsystem hotcpu mutex.

The reasons for defining new events as opposed to reusing the existing events
like CPU_UP_PREPARE/CPU_UP_FAILED/CPU_ONLINE for locking/unlocking of
per-subsystem hotcpu mutexes are as follow:

	- CPU_LOCK_ACQUIRE: All hotcpu mutexes are taken before subsystems
	start handling pre-hotplug events like CPU_UP_PREPARE/CPU_DOWN_PREPARE
	etc, thus ensuring a clean handling of these events.

	- CPU_LOCK_RELEASE: The hotcpu mutexes will be released only after
	all subsystems have handled post-hotplug events like CPU_DOWN_FAILED,
	CPU_DEAD,CPU_ONLINE etc thereby ensuring that there are no subsequent
	clashes amongst the interdependent subsystems after a cpu hotplugs.

This patch also uses __raw_notifier_call chain in _cpu_up to take care
of the dependency between the two consequetive calls to
raw_notifier_call_chain.

Gautham R Shenoy 6f7cc11aa6 Extend notifier_call_chain to count nr_calls made
Since 2.6.18-something, the community has been bugged by the problem to
provide a clean and a stable mechanism to postpone a cpu-hotplug event as
lock_cpu_hotplug was badly broken.

This is another proposal towards solving that problem.  This one is along the
lines of the solution provided in kernel/workqueue.c

Instead of having a global mechanism like lock_cpu_hotplug, we allow the
subsytems to define their own per-subsystem hot cpu mutexes.  These would be
taken(released) where ever we are currently calling
lock_cpu_hotplug(unlock_cpu_hotplug).

Also, in the per-subsystem hotcpu callback function,we take this mutex before
we handle any pre-cpu-hotplug events and release it once we finish handling
the post-cpu-hotplug events.  A standard means for doing this has been
provided in [PATCH 2/4] and demonstrated in [PATCH 3/4].

The ordering of these per-subsystem mutexes might still prove to be a
problem, but hopefully lockdep should help us get out of that muddle.

The patch set to be applied against linux-2.6.19-rc5 is as follows:

[PATCH 1/4] :	Extend notifier_call_chain with an option to specify the
		number of notifications to be sent and also count the
		number of notifications actually sent.

[PATCH 2/4] :	Define events CPU_LOCK_ACQUIRE and CPU_LOCK_RELEASE
		and send out notifications for these in _cpu_up and
		_cpu_down. This would help us standardise the acquire and
		release of the subsystem locks in the hotcpu
		callback functions of these subsystems.

[PATCH 3/4] :	Eliminate lock_cpu_hotplug from kernel/sched.c.

[PATCH 4/4] :	In workqueue_cpu_callback function, acquire(release) the
		workqueue_mutex while handling
		CPU_LOCK_ACQUIRE(CPU_LOCK_RELEASE).

If the per-subsystem-locking approach survives the test of time, we can expect
a slow phasing out of lock_cpu_hotplug, which has not yet been eliminated in
these patches :)

This patch:

Provide notifier_call_chain with an option to call only a specified number of
notifiers and also record the number of call to notifiers made.

The need for this enhancement was identified in the post entitled
"Slab - Eliminate lock_cpu_hotplug from slab"
(http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/28/92) by Ravikiran G Thirumalai and
Andrew Morton.

This patch adds two additional parameters to notifier_call_chain API namely
 - int nr_to_calls : Number of notifier_functions to be called.
 		     The don't care value is -1.

 - unsigned int *nr_calls : Records the total number of notifier_funtions
			    called by notifier_call_chain. The don't care
			    value is NULL.

Oleg Nesterov b89deed32c implement flush_work()
A basic problem with flush_scheduled_work() is that it blocks behind _all_
presently-queued works, rather than just the work whcih the caller wants to
flush.  If the caller holds some lock, and if one of the queued work happens
to want that lock as well then accidental deadlocks can occur.

One example of this is the phy layer: it wants to flush work while holding
rtnl_lock().  But if a linkwatch event happens to be queued, the phy code will
deadlock because the linkwatch callback function takes rtnl_lock.

So we implement a new function which will flush a *single* work - just the one
which the caller wants to free up.  Thus we avoid the accidental deadlocks
which can arise from unrelated subsystems' callbacks taking shared locks.

flush_work() non-blockingly dequeues the work_struct which we want to kill,
then it waits for its handler to complete on all CPUs.

Add ->current_work to the "struct cpu_workqueue_struct", it points to
currently running "struct work_struct". When flush_work(work) detects
->current_work == work, it inserts a barrier at the _head_ of ->worklist
(and thus right _after_ that work) and waits for completition. This means
that the next work fired on that CPU will be this barrier, or another
barrier queued by concurrent flush_work(), so the caller of flush_work()
will be woken before any "regular" work has a chance to run.

When wait_on_work() unlocks workqueue_mutex (or whatever we choose to protect
against CPU hotplug), CPU may go away. But in that case take_over_work() will
move a barrier we queued to another CPU, it will be fired sometime, and
wait_on_work() will be woken.

Actually, we are doing cleanup_workqueue_thread()->kthread_stop() before
take_over_work(), so cwq->thread should complete its ->worklist (and thus
the barrier), because currently we don't check kthread_should_stop() in
run_workqueue(). But even if we did, everything should be ok.

James Bottomley 8813d1c00c mca: add integrated device bus matching
The MCA bus has a few "integrated" functions, which are effectively virtual
slots on the bus.  The problem is that these special functions don't have
dedicated pos IDs, so we have to manufacture ids for them outside the pos
space ...  and these ids can't be matched by the standard matching function,
so add a special registration that requests a list of pos ids or a particular
integrated function.

Fernando Luis Vazquez Cao 2f4dfe206a Remove hardcoding of hard_smp_processor_id on UP systems
With the advent of kdump, the assumption that the boot CPU when booting an UP
kernel is always the CPU with a particular hardware ID (often 0) (usually
referred to as BSP on some architectures) is not valid anymore.  The reason
being that the dump capture kernel boots on the crashed CPU (the CPU that
invoked crash_kexec), which may be or may not be that particular CPU.

Move definition of hard_smp_processor_id for the UP case to
architecture-specific code ("asm/smp.h") where it belongs, so that each
architecture can provide its own implementation.

has swapped usage min and usage max tag. This results in HID parser failing
for report descriptor of these devices, as it (wrongly) requires allocating
more usages than HID_MAX_USAGES.

Bjorn Helgaas 8f81dd1498 PNP: notice whether we have PNP devices (PNPBIOS or PNPACPI)
This series converts i386 and x86_64 legacy serial ports to be platform
devices and prevents probing for them if we have PNP.

This prevents double discovery, where a device was found both by the legacy
probe and by 8250_pnp.

This also prevents the serial driver from claiming IRDA devices (unless they
have a UART PNP ID).  The serial legacy probe sometimes assumed the wrong IRQ,
so the user had to use "setserial" to fix it.

Removing the need for setserial to make IRDA devices work seems good, but it
does break some things.  In particular, you may need to keep setserial from
poking legacy UART stuff back in by doing something like "dpkg-reconfigure
setserial" with the "kernel" option.  Otherwise, the setserial-discovered
"UART" will claim resources and prevent the IRDA driver from loading.

This patch:

If we can discover devices using PNP, we can skip some legacy probes.  This
flag ("pnp_platform_devices") indicates that PNPBIOS or PNPACPI is enabled and
should tell us about builtin devices.

Bernhard Walle d85a60d85e Add IRQF_IRQPOLL flag (common code)
irqpoll is broken on some architectures that don't use the IRQ 0 for the timer
interrupt like IA64.  This patch adds a IRQF_IRQPOLL flag.

Each architecture is handled in a separate pach.  As I left the irq == 0 as
condition, this should not break existing architectures that use timer_irq ==
0 and that I did't address with that patch (because I don't know).

This patch:

This patch adds a IRQF_IRQPOLL flag that the interrupt registration code could
use for the interrupt it wants to use for IRQ polling.

Because this must not be the timer interrupt, an additional flag was added
instead of re-using the IRQF_TIMER constant.  Until all architectures will
have an IRQF_IRQPOLL interrupt, irq == 0 will stay as alternative as it should
not break anything.

Also, note_interrupt() is called on CPU-specific interrupts to be used as
interrupt source for IRQ polling.

Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli bf8f6e5b3e Kprobes: The ON/OFF knob thru debugfs
This patch provides a debugfs knob to turn kprobes on/off

o A new file /debug/kprobes/enabled indicates if kprobes is enabled or
  not (default enabled)
o Echoing 0 to this file will disarm all installed probes
o Any new probe registration when disabled will register the probe but
  not arm it. A message will be printed out in such a case.
o When a value 1 is echoed to the file, all probes (including ones
  registered in the intervening period) will be enabled
o Unregistration will happen irrespective of whether probes are globally
  enabled or not.
o Update Documentation/kprobes.txt to reflect these changes. While there
  also update the doc to make it current.

We are also looking at providing sysrq key support to tie to the disabling
feature provided by this patch.

David Brownell 87ac84f42a rtc-cmos wakeup interface
I finally got around to testing the updated wakeup event hooks for rtc-cmos,
and they follow in two patches:

 - Interface update ... when a simple enable_irq_wake() doesn't suffice,
   the platform data can hold suspend/resume callback hooks.

 - ACPI implementation ... provides callback hooks to do ACPI magic, and
   eliminate the legacy /proc/acpi/alarm file.

The interface update could go into 2.6.21, but that's not essential; they
will be NOPs on most PCs, without the ACPI stuff.

I suspect the ACPI folk may have opinions about how to merge that second
patch, and how to obsolete that legacy procfs file.  I'd like to see that
merge into 2.6.22 if possible...

As for how to kick it in ... two ways:

 - The appended "rtcwake" program; updated since the last time it was
   posted, it deals much better with timezones and DST.

 - Write the /sys/class/rtc/.../wakealarm file, then go to sleep.

For some reason RTC wake from "swsusp" stopped working on a system where
it previously worked; the alarm setting appears to get clobbered.  But
on the bright side, RTC wake from "standby" worked on a system that had
never been able to resume from that state before ... IDEACPI is my guess
as to why it finally started to work.  It's the old "two steps forward,
one step back" dance, I guess.

This patch:

Make rtc-cmos do the relevant magic so this RTC can wake the system from a
sleep state.  That magic comes in two basic flavors:

 - Straightforward:  enable_irq_wake(), the way it'd work on most SOC chips;
   or generally with system sleep states which don't disable core IRQ logic.

 - Roundabout, using non-IRQ platform hooks.  This is needed with ACPI and
   one almost-clone chip which uses a special wakeup-only alarm.  (That's
   the RTC used on Footbridge boards, FWIW, which don't do PM in Linux.)

A separate patch implements those hooks for ACPI platforms, so that rtc_cmos
can issue system wakeup events (and its sysfs "wakealarm" attribute works on
at least some systems).

This simplifies the /dev support by removing a superfluous class_device (the
/sys/class/rtc-dev stuff) and the class_interface that hooks it into the rtc
core.  Accordingly, if it's configured then /dev support is now part of the
RTC core, and is never a separate module.

It's another step towards being able to remove "struct class_device".

Ulrich Drepper 1c710c896e utimensat implementation
Implement utimensat(2) which is an extension to futimesat(2) in that it

a) supports nano-second resolution for the timestamps
b) allows to selectively ignore the atime/mtime value
c) allows to selectively use the current time for either atime or mtime
d) supports changing the atime/mtime of a symlink itself along the lines
   of the BSD lutimes(3) functions

For this change the internally used do_utimes() functions was changed to
accept a timespec time value and an additional flags parameter.

Additionally the sys_utime function was changed to match compat_sys_utime
which already use do_utimes instead of duplicating the work.

Also, the completely missing futimensat() functionality is added.  We have
such a function in glibc but we have to resort to using /proc/self/fd/* which
not everybody likes (chroot etc).

Eric Dumazet 5517d86bea Speed up divides by cpu_power in scheduler
I noticed expensive divides done in try_to_wakeup() and
find_busiest_group() on a bi dual core Opteron machine (total of 4 cores),
moderatly loaded (15.000 context switch per second)

oprofile numbers :

CPU: AMD64 processors, speed 2600.05 MHz (estimated)
Counted CPU_CLK_UNHALTED events (Cycles outside of halt state) with a unit
mask of 0x00 (No unit mask) count 50000
samples  %        symbol name
...
613914    1.0498  try_to_wake_up
    834  0.0013 :ffffffff80227ae1:   div    %rcx
77513  0.1191 :ffffffff80227ae4:   mov    %rax,%r11

608893    1.0413  find_busiest_group
   1841  0.0031 :ffffffff802260bf:       div    %rdi
140109  0.2394 :ffffffff802260c2:       test   %sil,%sil

Some of these divides can use the reciprocal divides we introduced some
time ago (currently used in slab AFAIK)

We can assume a load will fit in a 32bits number, because with a
SCHED_LOAD_SCALE=128 value, its still a theorical limit of 33554432

When/if we reach this limit one day, probably cpus will have a fast
hardware divide and we can zap the reciprocal divide trick.

Ingo suggested to rename cpu_power to __cpu_power to make clear it should
not be modified without changing its reciprocal value too.

I did not convert the divide in cpu_avg_load_per_task(), because tracking
nr_running changes may be not worth it ?  We could use a static table of 32
reciprocal values but it would add a conditional branch and table lookup.

Siddha, Suresh B 46cb4b7c88 sched: dynticks idle load balancing
Fix the process idle load balancing in the presence of dynticks.  cpus for
which ticks are stopped will sleep till the next event wakes it up.
Potentially these sleeps can be for large durations and during which today,
there is no periodic idle load balancing being done.

This patch nominates an owner among the idle cpus, which does the idle load
balancing on behalf of the other idle cpus.  And once all the cpus are
completely idle, then we can stop this idle load balancing too.  Checks added
in fast path are minimized.  Whenever there are busy cpus in the system, there
will be an owner(idle cpu) doing the system wide idle load balancing.

Open items:
1. Intelligent owner selection (like an idle core in a busy package).
2. Merge with rcu's nohz_cpu_mask?

 Works with mdev given CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED; and presumably udev.

 Updated SPI_IOC_MESSAGE ioctl to full spi_message semantics, supporting

 desired).

 This is marked as EXPERIMENTAL with an explicit disclaimer that the API

A patch that stores inode flags such as S_IMMUTABLE, S_APPEND, etc.  from
i_flags to EXT3_I(inode)->i_flags when inode is written to disk.  The same
thing is done on GETFLAGS ioctl.

Quota code changes these flags on quota files (to make it harder for
sysadmin to screw himself) and these changes were not correctly propagated
into the filesystem (especially, lsattr did not show them and users were
wondering...).

Propagate flags such as S_APPEND, S_IMMUTABLE, etc.  from i_flags into
ext3-specific i_flags.  Hence, when someone sets these flags via a
different interface than ioctl, they are stored correctly.

David Brownell 49a4ec188f fix hotplug for legacy platform drivers
We've had various reports of some legacy "probe the hardware" style
platform drivers having nasty problems with hotplug support.

The core issue is that those legacy drivers don't fully conform to the
driver model.  They assume a role that should be the responsibility of
infrastructure code: creating device nodes.

The "modprobe" step in hotplugging relies on drivers to have split those
roles into different modules.  The lack of this split causes the problems.
When a driver creates nodes for devices that don't exist (sending a hotplug
event), then exits (aborting one modprobe) before the "modprobe $MODALIAS"
step completes (by failing, since it's in the middle of a modprobe), the
result can be an endless loop of modprobe invocations ...  badness.

This fix uses the newish per-device flag controlling issuance of "add"
events.  (A previous version of this patch used a per-device "driver can
hotplug" flag, which only scrubbed $MODALIAS from the environment rather
than suppressing the entire hotplug event.) It also shrinks that flag to
one bit, saving a word in "struct device".

So the net of this patch is removing some nasty failures with legacy
drivers, while retaining hotplug capability for the majority of platform
drivers.

We noticed a drop in n/w performance due to the irq_desc being cacheline
aligned rather than internode aligned.  We see 50% of expected performance
when two e1000 nics local to two different nodes have consecutive irq
descriptors allocated, due to false sharing.

Note that this patch does away with cacheline padding for the UP case, as
it does not seem useful for UP configurations.

Define the deprecated flags as a call to a __deprecated inline function
so a warning is emitted on compile time.

Simon Horman 6672f76a5a kdump/kexec: calculate note size at compile time
Currently the size of the per-cpu region reserved to save crash notes is
set by the per-architecture value MAX_NOTE_BYTES.  Which in turn is
currently set to 1024 on all supported architectures.

While testing ia64 I recently discovered that this value is in fact too
small.  The particular setup I was using actually needs 1172 bytes.  This
lead to very tedious failure mode where the tail of one elf note would
overwrite the head of another if they ended up being alocated sequentially
by kmalloc, which was often the case.

It seems to me that a far better approach is to caclculate the size that
the area needs to be.  This patch does just that.

If a simpler stop-gap patch for ia64 to be squeezed into 2.6.21(.X) is
needed then this should be as easy as making MAX_NOTE_BYTES larger in
arch/asm-ia64/kexec.h.  Perhaps 2048 would be a good choice.  However, I
think that the approach in this patch is a much more robust idea.

Ken Chen 7328508274 remove artificial software max_loop limit
Remove artificial maximum 256 loop device that can be created due to a
legacy device number limit.  Searching through lkml archive, there are
several instances where users complained about the artificial limit that
the loop driver impose.  There is no reason to have such limit.

This patch rid the limit entirely and make loop device and associated block
queue instantiation on demand.  With on-demand instantiation, it also gives
the benefit of not wasting memory if these devices are not in use (compare
to current implementation that always create 8 loop devices), a net
improvement in both areas.  This version is both tested with creation of
large number of loop devices and is compatible with existing losetup/mount
user land tools.

Add touch_all_softlockup_watchdogs() to allow the softlockup watchdog
timers on all cpus to be updated.  This is used to prevent sysrq-t from
generating a spurious watchdog message when generating lots of output.

Softlockup watchdogs use sched_clock() as its timebase, which is inherently
per-cpu (at least, when it is measuring unstolen time).  Because of this,
it isn't possible for one CPU to directly update the other CPU's timers,
but it is possible to tell the other CPUs to do update themselves
appropriately.

Venki Pallipadi 6e453a6751 Add support for deferrable timers
Introduce a new flag for timers - deferrable: Timers that work normally
when system is busy.  But, will not cause CPU to come out of idle (just to
service this timer), when CPU is idle.  Instead, this timer will be
serviced when CPU eventually wakes up with a subsequent non-deferrable
timer.

The main advantage of this is to avoid unnecessary timer interrupts when
CPU is idle.  If the routine currently called by a timer can wait until
next event without any issues, this new timer can be used to setup timer
event for that routine.  This, with dynticks, allows CPUs to be lazy,
allowing them to stay in idle for extended period of time by reducing
unnecesary wakeup and thereby reducing the power consumption.

This patch:

Builds this new timer on top of existing timer infrastructure.  It uses
last bit in 'base' pointer of timer_list structure to store this deferrable
timer flag.  __next_timer_interrupt() function skips over these deferrable
timers when CPU looks for next timer event for which it has to wake up.

This is exported by a new interface init_timer_deferrable() that can be
called in place of regular init_timer().

Eric W. Biederman 98a27ba485 tty: introduce no_tty and use it in selinux
While researching the tty layer pid leaks I found a weird case in selinux when
we drop a controlling tty because of inadequate permissions we don't do the
normal hangup processing.  Which is a problem if it happens the session leader
has exec'd something that can no longer access the tty.

We already have code in the kernel to handle this case in the form of the
TIOCNOTTY ioctl.  So this patch factors out a helper function that is the
essence of that ioctl and calls it from the selinux code.

This removes the inconsistency in handling dropping of a controlling tty and
who knows it might even make some part of user space happy because it received
a SIGHUP it was expecting.

In addition since this removes the last user of proc_set_tty outside of
tty_io.c proc_set_tty is made static and removed from tty.h

Eric Dumazet c23fbb6bcb VFS: delay the dentry name generation on sockets and pipes
1) Introduces a new method in 'struct dentry_operations'.  This method
   called d_dname() might be called from d_path() to build a pathname for
   special filesystems.  It is called without locks.

   Future patches (if we succeed in having one common dentry for all
   pipes/sockets) may need to change prototype of this method, but we now
   use : char *d_dname(struct dentry *dentry, char *buffer, int buflen);

2) Adds a dynamic_dname() helper function that eases d_dname() implementations

3) Defines d_dname method for sockets : No more sprintf() at socket
   creation.  This is delayed up to the moment someone does an access to
   /proc/pid/fd/...

4) Defines d_dname method for pipes : No more sprintf() at pipe
   creation.  This is delayed up to the moment someone does an access to
   /proc/pid/fd/...

Miklos Szeredi 79c0b2df79 add filesystem subtype support
There's a slight problem with filesystem type representation in fuse
based filesystems.

From the kernel's view, there are just two filesystem types: fuse and
fuseblk.  From the user's view there are lots of different filesystem
types.  The user is not even much concerned if the filesystem is fuse based
or not.  So there's a conflict of interest in how this should be
represented in fstab, mtab and /proc/mounts.

The current scheme is to encode the real filesystem type in the mount
source.  So an sshfs mount looks like this:

  sshfs#user@server:/   /mnt/server    fuse   rw,nosuid,nodev,...

This url-ish syntax works OK for sshfs and similar filesystems.  However
for block device based filesystems (ntfs-3g, zfs) it doesn't work, since
the kernel expects the mount source to be a real device name.

A possibly better scheme would be to encode the real type in the type
field as "type.subtype".  So fuse mounts would look like this:

  /dev/hda1       /mnt/windows   fuseblk.ntfs-3g   rw,...
  user@server:/   /mnt/server    fuse.sshfs        rw,nosuid,nodev,...

This patch adds the necessary code to the kernel so that this can be
correctly displayed in /proc/mounts.

Badari Pulavarty e3222c4ecc Merge sys_clone()/sys_unshare() nsproxy and namespace handling
sys_clone() and sys_unshare() both makes copies of nsproxy and its associated
namespaces.  But they have different code paths.

This patch merges all the nsproxy and its associated namespace copy/clone
handling (as much as possible).  Posted on container list earlier for
feedback.

- Create a new nsproxy and its associated namespaces and pass it back to
  caller to attach it to right process.

- Changed all copy_*_ns() routines to return a new copy of namespace
  instead of attaching it to task->nsproxy.

- Moved the CAP_SYS_ADMIN checks out of copy_*_ns() routines.

- Removed unnessary !ns checks from copy_*_ns() and added BUG_ON()
  just incase.

Michal Schmidt ee7b9e3706 Fix compilation of drivers with -O0
It is sometimes useful to compile individual drivers with optimization
disabled for easier debugging.  Currently drivers which use htonl() and
similar functions don't compile with -O0.  This patch fixes it.  It also
removes obsolete and misleading comments.  This header is not for
userspace, so we don't have to care about strange programs these comments
mention.

(akpm: -O0 probably isn't a good idea, but this code looks pretty crufty and
unuseful)

Trent Piepho 8e2c20023f Fix constant folding and poor optimization in byte swapping code
Constant folding does not work for the swabXX() byte swapping functions,
and the C versions optimize poorly.

Attempting to initialize a global variable to swab16(0x1234) or put
something like "case swab32(42):" in a switch statement will not compile.
It can work, swab.h just isn't doing it correctly.  This patch fixes that.

Contrary to the comment in asm-i386/byteorder.h, gcc does not recognize the
"C" version of swab16 and turn it into efficient code.  gcc can do this,
just not with the current code.  The simple function:

u16 foo(u16 x) { return swab16(x); }

Would compile to:
        movzwl  %ax, %eax
        movl    %eax, %edx
        shrl    $8, %eax
        sall    $8, %edx
        orl     %eax, %edx

With this patch, it will compile to:
        rolw    $8, %ax

I also attempted to document the maze different macros/inline functions
that are used to create the final product.

William Cohen 97dc32cdb1 reduce size of task_struct on 64-bit machines
This past week I was playing around with that pahole tool
(http://oops.ghostprotocols.net:81/acme/dwarves/) and looking at the size
of various struct in the kernel.  I was surprised by the size of the
task_struct on x86_64, approaching 4K.  I looked through the fields in
task_struct and found that a number of them were declared as "unsigned
long" rather than "unsigned int" despite them appearing okay as 32-bit
sized fields.  On x86_64 "unsigned long" ends up being 8 bytes in size and
forces 8 byte alignment.  Is there a reason there a reason they are
"unsigned long"?

The patch below drops the size of the struct from 3808 bytes (60 64-byte
cachelines) to 3760 bytes (59 64-byte cachelines).  A couple other fields
in the task struct take a signficant amount of space:

struct thread_struct       thread;               688
struct held_lock           held_locks[30];       1680

CONFIG_LOCKDEP is turned on in the .config

David Woodhouse b46b8f19c9 Increase slab redzone to 64bits
There are two problems with the existing redzone implementation.

Firstly, it's causing misalignment of structures which contain a 64-bit
integer, such as netfilter's 'struct ipt_entry' -- causing netfilter
modules to fail to load because of the misalignment.  (In particular, the
first check in
net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c::check_entry_size_and_hooks())

On ppc32 and sparc32, amongst others, __alignof__(uint64_t) == 8.

With slab debugging, we use 32-bit redzones. And allocated slab objects
aren't sufficiently aligned to hold a structure containing a uint64_t.

By _just_ setting ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to __alignof__(u64) we'd disable
redzone checks on those architectures.  By using 64-bit redzones we avoid that
loss of debugging, and also fix the other problem while we're at it.

When investigating this, I noticed that on 64-bit platforms we're using a
32-bit value of RED_ACTIVE/RED_INACTIVE in the 64-bit memory location set
aside for the redzone.  Which means that the four bytes immediately before
or after the allocated object at 0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00 for LE and BE
machines, respectively.  Which is probably not the most useful choice of
poison value.

One way to fix both of those at once is just to switch to 64-bit
redzones in all cases.
