2007-05-10[NET_SCHED]: Avoid requeue warning on dev_deactivateHerbert Xu
When we relinquish queue_lock in qdisc_restart and then retake it for requeueing, we might race against dev_deactivate and end up requeueing onto noop_qdisc. This causes a warning to be printed. This patch fixes this by checking this before we requeue. As an added bonus, we can remove the same check in __qdisc_run which was added to prevent dev->gso_skb from being requeued when we're shutting down. Even though we've had to add a new conditional in its place, it's better because it only happens on requeues rather than every single time that qdisc_run is called. For this to work we also need to move the clearing of gso_skb up in dev_deactivate as now qdisc_restart can occur even after we wait for __LINK_STATE_QDISC_RUNNING to clear (but it won't do anything as long as the queue and gso_skb is already clear).

2007-05-10[NET_SCHED]: Reread dev->qdisc for NETDEV_TX_OKHerbert Xu
Now that we return the queue length after NETDEV_TX_OK we better make sure that we have the right queue. Otherwise we can cause a stall after a really quick dev_deactive/dev_activate. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-05-10[NET_SCHED]: Rationalise return value of qdisc_restartHerbert Xu
The current return value scheme and associated comment was invented back in the 20th century when we still had that tbusy flag. Things have changed quite a bit since then (even Tony Blair is moving on now, not to mention the new French president). All we need to indicate now is whether the caller should continue processing the queue. Therefore it's sufficient if we return 0 if we want to stop and non-zero otherwise. This is based on a patch by Krishna Kumar. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-05-10[NET]: Fix dev->qdisc race for NETDEV_TX_LOCKED caseThomas Graf
When transmit fails with NETDEV_TX_LOCKED the skb is requeued to dev->qdisc again. The dev->qdisc pointer is protected by the queue lock which needs to be dropped when attempting to transmit and acquired again before requeing. The problem is that qdisc_restart() fetches the dev->qdisc pointer once and stores it in the `q' variable which is invalidated when dropping the queue_lock, therefore the variable needs to be refreshed before requeueing.

2007-05-10[UDP]: Fix AF-specific references in AF-agnostic code.David S. Miller
__udp_lib_port_inuse() cannot make direct references to inet_sk(sk)->rcv_saddr as that is ipv4 specific state and this code is used by ipv6 too. Use an operations vector to solve this, and this also paves the way for ipv6 support for non-wild saddr hashing in UDP. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-05-10[IrDA]: KingSun/DonShine USB IrDA dongle support.Alex Villac�s Lasso
This dongle does not follow the usb-irda specification, so it needs its own special driver. In addition, it uses interrupt endpoints instead of bulk ones as the rest of USB IrDA dongles supported by Linux (just to be different?) and data reads need to be parsed to extract the valid bytes before being unwrapped (details in the comment at the start of the source). No speed commands have been discovered for this dongle, and I suspect it does not have any at all. On plugin, this dongle reports vendor and device IDs: 0x07c0:0x4200 . The Windows driver that is used normally to control this dongle has a filename of DSIR620.SYS .

2007-05-10[NET] link_watch: Always schedule urgent eventsHerbert Xu
Urgent events may be delayed if we already have a non-urgent event queued for that device. This patch changes this by making sure that an urgent event is always looked at immediately. I've replaced the LW_RUNNING flag by LW_URGENT since whether work is scheduled is already kept track by the work queue system. The only complication is that we have to provide some exclusion for the setting linkwatch_nextevent which is available in the actual work function.

2007-05-10[NET]: Remove link_watch delay for up even when we're downHerbert Xu
Currently all link carrier events are delayed by up to a second before they're processed to prevent link storms. This causes unnecessary packet loss during that interval. In fact, we can achieve the same effect in preventing storms by only delaying down events and unnecssary up events. The latter is defined as up events when we're already up.

2007-05-10[NET] link_watch: Move link watch list into net_deviceHerbert Xu
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.

2007-05-10locks: fix F_GETLK regression (failure to find conflicts)J. Bruce Fields
In 9d6a8c5c213e34c475e72b245a8eb709258e968c we changed posix_test_lock to modify its single file_lock argument instead of taking separate input and output arguments. This makes it no longer safe to set the output lock's fl_type to F_UNLCK before looking for a conflict, since that means searching for a conflict against a lock with type F_UNLCK. This fixes a regression which causes F_GETLK to incorrectly report no conflict on most filesystems (including any filesystem that doesn't do its own locking). Also fix posix_lock_to_flock() to copy the lock type. This isn't strictly necessary, since the caller already does this; but it seems less likely to cause confusion in the future.

Currently the code perform this check is racy. If a write and a read a both submitted to a device on a 2-drive raid1, and the write fails followed by the read failing, the read will see that there is only one working drive and will pass the failure up, even though the one working drive is actually the *other* one.

2007-05-10Revert "[PATCH] paravirt: Add startup infrastructure for paravirtualization"Eric W. Biederman
This reverts commit c9ccf30d77f04064fe5436027ab9d2230c7cdd94. Entering the kernel at startup_32 without passing our real mode data in %esi, and without guaranteeing that physical and virtual addresses are identity mapped makes head.S impossible to maintain. The only user of this infrastructure is lguest which is not merged so nothing we currently support will break by removing this over designed nightmare, and only the pending lguest patches will be affected. The pending Xen patches have a different entry point that they use. We are currently discussing what Xen and lguest need to do to boot the kernel in a more normal fashion so using startup_32 in this weird manner is clearly not their long term direction. So let's remove this code in head.S before it causes brain damage to people trying to maintain head.S Cc: Chris Wright <chrisw@sous-sol.org> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Cc: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> Cc: Zachary Amsden <zach@vmware.com> CC: H.

2007-05-10early_pfn_to_nid needs to be __meminitStephen Rothwell
Since it is referenced by memmap_init_zone (which is __meminit) via the early_pfn_in_nid macro when CONFIG_NODES_SPAN_OTHER_NODES is set (which basically means PowerPC 64). This removes a section mismatch warning in those circumstances.

2007-05-10AFS: further write support fixesDavid Howells
Further fixes for AFS write support: (1) The afs_send_pages() outer loop must do an extra iteration if it ends with 'first == last' because 'last' is inclusive in the page set otherwise it fails to send the last page and complete the RxRPC op under some circumstances. (2) Similarly, the outer loop in afs_pages_written_back() must also do an extra iteration if it ends with 'first == last', otherwise it fails to clear PG_writeback on the last page under some circumstances.

2007-05-10AFS: write support fixesDavid Howells
AFS write support fixes: (1) Support large files using the 64-bit file access operations if available on the server. (2) Use kmap_atomic() rather than kmap() in afs_prepare_page(). (3) Don't do stuff in afs_writepage() that's done by the caller.

2007-05-10add upper-32-bits macroAndrew Morton
We keep on getting "right shift count >= width of type" warnings when doing things like sector_t s; x = s >> 56; because with CONFIG_LBD=n, s is only 32-bit. Similar problems can occur with dma_addr_t's. So add a simple wrapper function which code can use to avoid this warning. The above example would become x = upper_32_bits(s) >> 24; The first user is in fact AFS.

2007-05-10slub: support concurrent local and remote frees and allocs on a slabChristoph Lameter
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?] Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
