This patch is rather large, but it really can't be done in smaller chunks
easily and I believe it is an important change. This has been out and tested
for a while in the latest IPMI driver release. There are no functional
changes, just changes as necessary to convert the locking over (and a few
minor style updates).
The IPMI driver uses read/write locks to ensure that things exist while they
are in use. This is bad from a number of points of view. This patch removes
the rwlocks and uses refcounts and RCU lists to manage what the locks did.

Introduce the notion of cooperating processes (those that submit requests
close to one another), and use these statistics to make better choices about
whether or not to do anticipatory waiting.
Help and analysis from Seetharami Seelam <seelam@cs.utep.edu>
Performance testing from Seelam:
I set up my system and executed a couple of tests that I used for OLS. I
tested with AS, cooperative process patch merged in -mm tree (which I called
Nick, below) and the cooperative patch with modifications to as_update_iohist
(which I called Seelam).
I used a dual-processor (2.28GHz Pentium 4 Xeon) system, with 1 GB main memory
and 1 MB L2 cache, running Linux 2.6.9. Only a single processor is used for
the experiments. I used 7.2K RPM Maxtor 10GB drive configured with ext2 file
system.
Experiment 1 (ex1) consists of reading one Linux source trees using
find . -type f -exec cat '{}' ';' > /dev/null.
Experiment 2 (ex2) consists of reading two disjoint Linux source trees
using
find . -type f -exec cat '{}' ';' > /dev/null.
Experiment 3 (ex3) consists of streaming read of a 2GB file in the background
and 1 instance of the chunk reads in Experiment 1.
Timings for reading the Linux source are shown below:
AS Nick Seelam
ex1: 0m25.813s 0m27.859s 0m27.640s
ex2: 1m11.468s 1m13.918s 1m5.869s
ex3: 81m44.352s 10m38.572s 6m47.994s
The difference between the numbers in Experiment 3 must be due to the code in
as_update_iohist. (akpm: that's not part of this patch. So this patch is
"Nick").

This patch passes the file handle supplied in iattr to userspace, in case the
->setattr() was invoked from sys_ftruncate(). This solves the permission
checking (or lack thereof) in ftruncate() for the class of filesystems served

The sys_ptrace boilerplate code (everything outside the big switch
statement for the arch-specific requests) is shared by most architectures.
This patch moves it to kernel/ptrace.c and leaves the arch-specific code as
arch_ptrace.
Some architectures have a too different ptrace so we have to exclude them.
They continue to keep their implementations. For sh64 I had to add a
sh64_ptrace wrapper because it does some initialization on the first call.
For um I removed an ifdefed SUBARCH_PTRACE_SPECIAL block, but
SUBARCH_PTRACE_SPECIAL isn't defined anywhere in the tree.

The code for FUTEX_WAKE_OP calls an arch callback,
futex_atomic_op_inuser(). That callback can return an error code, but
currently the caller assumes any error is EFAULT, and will try various
things to resolve the fault before eventually giving up with EFAULT
(regardless of the original error code). This is not a theoretical case -
arch callbacks currently return -ENOSYS if the opcode they are given is
bogus.
This patch alters the code to detect non-EFAULT errors and return them
directly to the user.
Of course, whether -ENOSYS is the correct return value for the bogus opcode
case, or whether EINVAL would be more appropriate is another question.

AIO was adding a new context's max requests to the global total before
testing if that resulting total was over the global limit. This let
innocent tasks get their new limit tested along with a racing guilty task
that was crossing the limit. This serializes the _nr accounting with a
spinlock It also switches to using unsigned long for the global totals.
Individual contexts are still limited to an unsigned int's worth of
requests by the syscall interface.
The problem and fix were verified with a simple program that spun creating
and destroying a context while holding on to another long lived context.
Before the patch a task creating a tiny context could get a spurious EAGAIN
if it raced with a task creating a very large context that overran the
limit.

This patch has the changes to support the memory floor fix done in Dell
BIOS. The BIOS incase of packet update mechanism would not accept packet
placed in memory below a cretain address. This address is by default 128K
but can change. The driver now can accept the memory floor if the user
chooses to make it will try to allocate contiguous physical memory above
the memory floor by allocating a set of packets till a valid memory
allocation is made. All the allocates then are freed. This repeats for
everty packet.

driver_unregister is not being properly called when the init function
returns an error case. Restructured the return logic such that this and
the other cleanups all happen in one place. Preformed many of the cleanups
that Andrew Morton's patch on Thursday made in tpm_atmel.c. Fixed
Matthieu's concern about writing before discovery.
(akpm: rmk said:
This driver is buggy. You must not provide your own release function - it
doesn't solve the problem which the warning (which you get when you don't
provide one) is telling you about.
You should convert your device driver over to the replacement dynamic platform
support, once it is merged. IOW, something like:
pdev = platform_device_alloc("mydev", id);
if (pdev) {
err = platform_device_add_resources(pdev, &resources,
ARRAY_SIZE(resources));
if (err == 0)
err = platform_device_add_data(pdev, &platform_data,
sizeof(platform_data));
if (err == 0)
err = platform_device_add(pdev);
} else {
err = -ENOMEM;
}
if (err)
platform_device_put(pdev);

Remove pagex pseudo page fault code. It does not work together with the
system call speedup that makes the complete system call path enabled for
interrupts. To make pagex and the syscall speedup code work together we would
have to add code to the program check handler to do a critical section cleanup
like the asynchronous interrupt code. This would make program checks slower.
Not what we want.
Newer versions of z/VM have the improved pfault pseudo page fault interface.
This replaces the old pagex interface and does not have the problem. So its
better to just rip out the pagex code.
