| * | [PATCH] add scsi_execute_in_process_context() APIJames Bottomley2006-02-141-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have several points in the SCSI stack (primarily for our device functions) where we need to guarantee process context, but (given the place where the last reference was released) we cannot guarantee this. This API gets around the issue by executing the function directly if the caller has process context, but scheduling a workqueue to execute in process context if the caller doesn't have it. Unfortunately, it requires memory allocation in interrupt context, but it's better than what we have previously. The true solution will require a bit of re-engineering, so isn't appropriate for 2.6.16. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

This way the lld does not have to remember if it has to send a handle or pointer and a handle or pointer to connection, session or host. This also has the class verify the session handle that gets passed from userspace instead of using the pointer passed into the kernel directly.

| * | | [XFRM]: Fix SNAT-related crash in xfrm4_output_finishPatrick McHardy2006-02-153-5/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a packet matching an IPsec policy is SNATed so it doesn't match any policy anymore it looses its xfrm bundle, which makes xfrm4_output_finish crash because of a NULL pointer dereference. This patch directs these packets to the original output path instead. Since the packets have already passed the POST_ROUTING hook, but need to start at the beginning of the original output path which includes another POST_ROUTING invocation, a flag is added to the IPCB to indicate that the packet was rerouted and doesn't need to pass the POST_ROUTING hook again.

* | | | [PATCH] neofb: avoid resetting display config on unblank (v2)Christian Trefzer2006-02-151-0/+1
|/ / / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There were two mistakes in the register-read-on-(un)blank approach. - First, without proper register (un)locking the value read back will always be zero, and this is what I missed entirely until just now. Due to this, the logic could not be verified at all and I tried some bogus checks which are completely stupid. - Second, the LCD status bit will always be set to zero when the backlight has been turned off. Reading the value back during unblank will disable the LCD unconditionally, regardless of the state it is supposed to be in, since we set it to zero beforehand. So this is what we do now: - create a new variable in struct neofb_par, and use that to determine whether to read back registers (initialized to true) - before actually blanking the screen, read back the register to sense any possible change made through Fn key combo - use proper neoUnlock() / neoLock() to actually read something - every call to neofb_blank() determines if we read back next time: blanking disables readback, unblanking (FB_BLANK_UNBLANK) enables it This should give us a nice and clean state machine. Has been thoroughly tested on a Dell Latitude CPiA / NM220 Chip docked to a C/Dock2 with attached CRT in all possible combinations of LCD/CRT on/off. I changed the config via Fn key, let the console blank, unblanked by keypress - works flawlessly. Signed-off-by: Christian Trefzer <ctrefzer@gmx.de> Cc: "Antonino A.

* | | [NETFILTER]: Fix xfrm lookup after SNATPatrick McHardy2006-02-151-1/+1
| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To find out if a packet needs to be handled by IPsec after SNAT, packets are currently rerouted in POST_ROUTING and a new xfrm lookup is done. This breaks SNAT of non-unicast packets to non-local addresses because the packet is routed as incoming packet and no neighbour entry is bound to the dst_entry. In general, it seems to be a bad idea to replace the dst_entry after the packet was already sent to the output routine because its state might not match what's expected. This patch changes the xfrm lookup in POST_ROUTING to re-use the original dst_entry without routing the packet again. This means no policy routing can be used for transport mode transforms (which keep the original route) when packets are SNATed to match the policy, but it looks like the best we can do for now.

* | [PATCH] FRV: Use virtual interrupt disablementDavid Howells2006-02-142-6/+83
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make the FRV arch use virtual interrupt disablement because accesses to the processor status register (PSR) are relatively slow and because we will soon have the need to deal with multiple interrupt controls at the same time (separate h/w and inter-core interrupts). The way this is done is to dedicate one of the four integer condition code registers (ICC2) to maintaining a virtual interrupt disablement state whilst inside the kernel. This uses the ICC2.Z flag (Zero) to indicate whether the interrupts are virtually disabled and the ICC2.C flag (Carry) to indicate whether the interrupts are physically disabled. ICC2.Z is set to indicate interrupts are virtually disabled. ICC2.C is set to indicate interrupts are physically enabled. Under normal running conditions Z==0 and C==1. Disabling interrupts with local_irq_disable() doesn't then actually physically disable interrupts - it merely sets ICC2.Z to 1. Should an interrupt then happen, the exception prologue will note ICC2.Z is set and branch out of line using one instruction (an unlikely BEQ). Here it will physically disable interrupts and clear ICC2.C. When it comes time to enable interrupts (local_irq_enable()), this simply clears the ICC2.Z flag and invokes a trap #2 if both Z and C flags are clear (the HI integer condition). This can be done with the TIHI conditional trap instruction. The trap then physically reenables interrupts and sets ICC2.C again. Upon returning the interrupt will be taken as interrupts will then be enabled. Note that whilst processing the trap, the whole exceptions system is disabled, and so an interrupt can't happen till it returns. If no pending interrupt had happened, ICC2.C would still be set, the HI condition would not be fulfilled, and no trap will happen. Saving interrupts (local_irq_save) is simply a matter of pulling the ICC2.Z flag out of the CCR register, shifting it down and masking it off. This gives a result of 0 if interrupts were enabled and 1 if they weren't. Restoring interrupts (local_irq_restore) is then a matter of taking the saved value mentioned previously and XOR'ing it against 1. If it was one, the result will be zero, and if it was zero the result will be non-zero. This result is then used to affect the ICC2.Z flag directly (it is a condition code flag after all). An XOR instruction does not affect the Carry flag, and so that bit of state is unchanged. The two flags can then be sampled to see if they're both zero using the trap (TIHI) as for the unconditional reenablement (local_irq_enable). This patch also: (1) Modifies the debugging stub (break.S) to handle single-stepping crossing into the trap #2 handler and into virtually disabled interrupts. (2) Removes superseded fixup pointers from the second instructions in the trap tables (there's no a separate fixup table for this). (3) Declares the trap #3 vector for use in .org directives in the trap table. (4) Moves irq_enter() and irq_exit() in do_IRQ() to avoid problems with virtual interrupt handling, and removes the duplicate code that has now been folded into irq_exit() (softirq and preemption handling). (5) Tells the compiler in the arch Makefile that ICC2 is now reserved. (6) Documents the in-kernel ABI, including the virtual interrupts. (7) Renames the old irq management functions to different names.

* | [PATCH] sched: revert "filter affine wakeups"Chen, Kenneth W2006-02-141-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Revert commit d7102e95b7b9c00277562c29aad421d2d521c5f6: [PATCH] sched: filter affine wakeups Apparently caused more than 10% performance regression for aim7 benchmark. The setup in use is 16-cpu HP rx8620, 64Gb of memory and 12 MSA1000s with 144 disks. Each disk is 72Gb with a single ext3 filesystem (courtesy of HP, who supplied benchmark results). The problem is, for aim7, the wake-up pattern is random, but it still needs load balancing action in the wake-up path to achieve best performance. With the above commit, lack of load balancing hurts that workload. However, for workloads like database transaction processing, the requirement is exactly opposite. In the wake up path, best performance is achieved with absolutely zero load balancing. We simply wake up the process on the CPU that it was previously run. Worst performance is obtained when we do load balancing at wake up. There isn't an easy way to auto detect the workload characteristics. Ingo's earlier patch that detects idle CPU and decide whether to load balance or not doesn't perform with aim7 either since all CPUs are busy (it causes even bigger perf. regression). Revert commit d7102e95b7b9c00277562c29aad421d2d521c5f6, which causes more than 10% performance regression with aim7.

* | [PATCH] madvise MADV_DONTFORK/MADV_DOFORKMichael S. Tsirkin2006-02-1420-0/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, copy-on-write may change the physical address of a page even if the user requested that the page is pinned in memory (either by mlock or by get_user_pages). This happens if the process forks meanwhile, and the parent writes to that page. As a result, the page is orphaned: in case of get_user_pages, the application will never see any data hardware DMA's into this page after the COW. In case of mlock'd memory, the parent is not getting the realtime/security benefits of mlock. In particular, this affects the Infiniband modules which do DMA from and into user pages all the time. This patch adds madvise options to control whether memory range is inherited across fork. Useful e.g. for when hardware is doing DMA from/into these pages. Could also be useful to an application wanting to speed up its forks by cutting large areas out of consideration. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

* | [PATCH] NLM: Fix the NLM_GRANTED callback checksTrond Myklebust2006-02-141-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If 2 threads attached to the same process are blocking on different locks on different files (maybe even on different servers) but have the same lock arguments (i.e. same offset+length - actually quite common, since most processes try to lock the entire file) then the first GRANTED call that wakes one up will also wake the other. Currently when the NLM_GRANTED callback comes in, lockd walks the list of blocked locks in search of a match to the lock that the NLM server has granted. Although it checks the lock pid, start and end, it fails to check the filehandle and the server address. By checking the filehandle and server IP address, we ensure that this only happens if the locks truly are referencing the same file.

This was in a 32-bit kernel compiled with GCC CVS head. restore_gp_regs() copies 64-bit user fields into 32-bit variables, and in this combination, the new __get_user_asm_ll32() clobbers too many registers. It says: /* * Get a long long 64 using 32 bit registers. */ { \ __asm__ __volatile__( \ "1: lw %1, (%3) \n" \ "2: lw %D1, 4(%3) \n" \ " move %0, $0 \n" \ "3: .section .fixup,\"ax\" \n" \ "4: li %0, %4 \n" \ " move %1, $0 \n" \ " move %D1, $0 \n" \ " j 3b \n" \ " .previous \n" \ " .section __ex_table,\"a\" \n" \ " " __UA_ADDR " 1b, 4b \n" \ " " __UA_ADDR " 2b, 4b \n" \ " .previous \n" \ : "=r" (__gu_err), "=&r" (val) \ : "0" (0), "r" (addr), "i" (-EFAULT)); \ } and this requires val (%1) to be a 64-bit value.

* | [PATCH] select: fix returned timevalAndrew Morton2006-02-112-1/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> select() presently has a habit of increasing the value of the user's `timeout' argument on return. We were writing back a timeout larger than the original. We _deliberately_ round up, since we know we must wait at _least_ as long as the caller asks us to. The patch adds a couple of helper functions for magnitude comparison of timespecs and of timevals, and uses them to prevent the various poll and select functions from returning a timeout which is larger than the one which was passed in. The patch also fixes a bug in compat_sys_pselect7(): it was adding the new timeout value to the old one and was returning that. It should just return the new timeout value. (We have various handy timespec/timeval-to-from-nsec conversion functions in time.h. But this code open-codes it all). Cc: "David S.

* | [PATCH] x86-64: Fix HPET timer on x460Chris McDermott2006-02-111-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [description from AK] The IBM Summit 3 chipset doesn't implement the HPET timer replacement option. Since the current Linux code relies on it use a mixed mode with both PIT for the interrupt and HPET counters for the time keeping. That was already implemented, but didn't work properly because it was still using the last interrupt offset in HPET. This resulted in x460 not booting. Fix this up by using the free running HPET counter. Shouldn't affect any other machine because they either use full HPET mode or no HPET at all. TBD needs a similar 32bit fix.

* | [PATCH] fstatat64 supportUlrich Drepper2006-02-113-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The *at patches introduced fstatat and, due to inusfficient research, I used the newfstat functions generally as the guideline. The result is that on 32-bit platforms we don't have all the information needed to implement fstatat64. This patch modifies the code to pass up 64-bit information if __ARCH_WANT_STAT64 is defined. I renamed the syscall entry point to make this clear. Other archs will continue to use the existing code. On x86-64 the compat code is implemented using a new sys32_ function. this is what is done for the other stat syscalls as well. This patch might break some other archs (those which define __ARCH_WANT_STAT64 and which already wired up the syscall). Yet others might need changes to accomodate the compatibility mode. I really don't want to do that work because all this stat handling is a mess (more so in glibc, but the kernel is also affected). It should be done by the arch maintainers. I'll provide some stand-alone test shortly. Those who are eager could compile glibc and run 'make check' (no installation needed). The patch below has been tested on x86 and x86-64.

That can be quite expensive. b) Soon we'll be allocating per-cpu areas only for possible CPUs. So with CPU_MASK_ALL, we'll be wasting memory. I also switched voyager over to not use CPU_MASK_ALL in the non-CPU-hotplug case. Should be OK.. I note that parisc is also using CPU_MASK_ALL. Suggest that it stop doing that.

* | | | [PATCH] kexec: fix in free initrd when overlapped with crashkernel regionHaren Myneni2006-02-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is possible that the reserved crashkernel region can be overlapped with initrd since the bootloader sets the initrd location. When the initrd region is freed, the second kernel memory will not be contiguous. The Kexec_load can cause an oops since there is no contiguous memory to write the second kernel or this memory could be used in the first kernel itself and may not be part of the dump. For example, on powerpc, the initrd is located at 36MB and the crashkernel starts at 32MB. The kexec_load caused panic since writing into non-allocated memory (after 36MB). We could see the similar issue even on other archs. One possibility is to move the initrd outside of crashkernel region. But, the initrd region will be freed anyway before the system is up. This patch fixes this issue and frees only regions that are not part of crashkernel memory in case overlaps. Signed-off-by: Haren Myneni <haren@us.ibm.com> Acked-by: "Eric W.
