2008-05-10BKL: revert back to the old spinlock implementationLinus Torvalds
The generic semaphore rewrite had a huge performance regression on AIM7 (and potentially other BKL-heavy benchmarks) because the generic semaphores had been rewritten to be simple to understand and fair. The latter, in particular, turns a semaphore-based BKL implementation into a mess of scheduling. The attempt to fix the performance regression failed miserably (see the previous commit 00b41ec2611dc98f87f30753ee00a53db648d662 'Revert "semaphore: fix"'), and so for now the simple and sane approach is to instead just go back to the old spinlock-based BKL implementation that never had any issues like this. This patch also has the advantage of being reported to fix the regression completely according to Yanmin Zhang, unlike the semaphore hack which still left a couple percentage point regression. As a spinlock, the BKL obviously has the potential to be a latency issue, but it's not really any different from any other spinlock in that respect. We do want to get rid of the BKL asap, but that has been the plan for several years. These days, the biggest users are in the tty layer (open/release in particular) and Alan holds out some hope: "tty release is probably a few months away from getting cured - I'm afraid it will almost certainly be the very last user of the BKL in tty to get fixed as it depends on everything else being sanely locked." so while we're not there yet, we do have a plan of action.

2008-05-10Revert "semaphore: fix"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit bf726eab3711cf192405d21688a4b21e07b6188a, as it has been reported to cause a regression with processes stuck in __down(), apparently because some missing wakeup. Quoth Sven Wegener: "I'm currently investigating a regression that has showed up with my last git pull yesterday. Bisecting the commits showed bf726e "semaphore: fix" to be the culprit, reverting it fixed the issue. Symptoms: During heavy filesystem usage (e.g. a kernel compile) I get several compiler processes in uninterruptible sleep, blocking all i/o on the filesystem. System is an Intel Core 2 Quad running a 64bit kernel and userspace. Filesystem is xfs on top of lvm. See below for the output of sysrq-w." See http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/10/45 for full report. In the meantime, we can just fix the BKL performance regression by reverting back to the good old BKL spinlock implementation instead, since any sleeping lock will generally perform badly, especially if it tries to be fair.

It actually makes much more sense there, and we do tend to need it for non-RCU usage too. Moving it to <linux/compiler.h> will allow some other cases that have open-coded the same logic to use the same helper function that RCU has used. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-05-09module: don't ignore vermagic string if module doesn't have modversionsRusty Russell
Linus found a logic bug: we ignore the version number in a module's vermagic string if we have CONFIG_MODVERSIONS set, but modversions also lets through a module with no __versions section for modprobe --force (with tainting, but still). We should only ignore the start of the vermagic string if the module actually *has* crcs to check. Rather than (say) having an entertaining hissy fit and creating a config option to work around the buggy code.

2008-05-09module: be more picky about allowing missing module versionsRusty Russell
We allow missing __versions sections, because modprobe --force strips it. It makes less sense to allow sections where there's no version for a specific symbol the module uses, so disallow that.

2008-05-09module: put modversions in vermagicRusty Russell
Don't allow a module built without versions altogether to be inserted into a kernel which expects modversions. modprobe --force will strip vermagic as well as modversions, so it won't be effected, but this will make sure that a non-CONFIG_MODVERSIONS module won't be accidentally inserted into a CONFIG_MODVERSIONS kernel.

2008-05-09[POWERPC] Document when printk is useableBenjamin Herrenschmidt
When debugging early boot problems, it's common to sprinkle printk's all over the place. However, on 64-bit powerpc, this can lead to memory corruption if done too early due to the PACA pointer and lockdep core not being initialized. This adds some comments to early_setup() that document when it is safe to do so in order to save time for whoever has to debug that stuff next.

2008-05-08Fix cpuset sched_relax_domain_level control filePaul Menage
Due to a merge conflict, the sched_relax_domain_level control file was marked as being handled by cpuset_read/write_u64, but the code to handle it was actually in cpuset_common_file_read/write. Since the value being written/read is in fact a signed integer, it should be treated as such; this patch adds cpuset_read/write_s64 functions, and uses them to handle the sched_relax_domain_level file. With this patch, the sched_relax_domain_level can be read and written, and the correct contents seen/updated.

2008-05-08vt: fix canonical input in UTF-8 modeSamuel Thibault
For e.g. proper TTY canonical support, IUTF8 termios flag has to be set as appropriate. Linux used to not care about setting that flag for VT TTYs. This patch fixes that by activating it according to the current mode of the VT, and sets the default value according to the vt.default_utf8 parameter.
