2009-10-06block: Seperate read and write statistics of in_flight requests v2Nikanth Karthikesan
Commit a9327cac440be4d8333bba975cbbf76045096275 added seperate read and write statistics of in_flight requests. And exported the number of read and write requests in progress seperately through sysfs. But Corrado Zoccolo <czoccolo@gmail.com> reported getting strange output from "iostat -kx 2". Global values for service time and utilization were garbage. For interval values, utilization was always 100%, and service time is higher than normal. So this was reverted by commit 0f78ab9899e9d6acb09d5465def618704255963b The problem was in part_round_stats_single(), I missed the following: if (now == part->stamp) return; - if (part->in_flight) { + if (part_in_flight(part)) { __part_stat_add(cpu, part, time_in_queue, part_in_flight(part) * (now - part->stamp)); __part_stat_add(cpu, part, io_ticks, (now - part->stamp)); With this chunk included, the reported regression gets fixed.

2009-10-05block: get rid of kblock_schedule_delayed_work()Jens Axboe
It was briefly introduced to allow CFQ to to delayed scheduling, but we ended up removing that feature again. So lets kill the function and export, and just switch CFQ back to the normal work schedule since it is now passing in a '0' delay from all call sites.

2009-10-05cfq-iosched: fix possible problem with jiffies wraparoundCorrado Zoccolo
The RR service tree is indexed by a key that is relative to current jiffies. This can cause problems on jiffies wraparound. The patch fixes it using time_before comparison, and changing the add_front path to use a relative number, too.

2009-10-04Linux 2.6.32-rc3Linus Torvalds
I'm skipping -rc2 because the -rc1 Makefile mistakenly said -rc2, so in order to avoid confusion, I'm jumping from -rc1 to -rc3. That way, when 'uname' (or an oops report) says 2.6.32-rc2, there's no confusion about whether people perhaps meant -rc1 or -rc2.

2009-10-03tty: Avoid dropping ldisc_mutex over hangup tty re-initializationLinus Torvalds
A couple of people have hit the WARN_ON() in drivers/char/tty_io.c, tty_open() that is unhappy about seeing the tty line discipline go away during the tty hangup. See for example http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14255 and the reason is that we do the tty_ldisc_halt() outside the ldisc_mutex in order to be able to flush the scheduled work without a deadlock with vhangup_work. However, it turns out that we can solve this particular case by - using "cancel_delayed_work_sync()" in tty_ldisc_halt(), which waits for just the particular work, rather than synchronizing with any random outstanding pending work. This won't deadlock, since the buf.work we synchronize with doesn't care about the ldisc_mutex, it just flushes the tty ldisc buffers. - realize that for this particular case, we don't need to wait for any hangup work, because we are inside the hangup codepaths ourselves. so as a result we can just drop the flush_scheduled_work() entirely, and then move the tty_ldisc_halt() call to inside the mutex. That way we never expose the partially torn down ldisc state to tty_open(), and hold the ldisc_mutex over the whole sequence.

2009-10-04m32r: Fix IPI function calls for SMPToshihiro HANAWA
This patch fixes the m32r SMP kernel after 2.6.27. A part of the following patch breaks m32r SMP operation. > m32r: convert to generic helpers for IPI function calls > commit 7b7426c8a615cf61df9a77b9df7d5b75d91e3fa0 In the above patch, a CALL_FUNC_SINGLE_IPI was newly introduced, but the its IPI vector number was wrong in the patch code. The m32r SMP kernel hanged-up during boot operation, because the CPU_BOOT_IPI was called instead of CALL_FUNC_SINGLE_IPI (CPU_BOOT_IPI had no side effect at that time because the 2nd core had already been started up), as a result, csd_unlock() was not called, then a dead lock occurred in csd_lock_wait() after the detection of Compact Flash memory as IDE generic disk.

2009-10-03ACPI: Fix bound checks for copy_from_user in the acpi /proc codeArjan van de Ven
The ACPI /proc write() code takes an unsigned length argument like any write() function, but then assigned it to a *signed* integer called "len". Only after this is a sanity check for len done to make it not larger than 4. Due to the type change a len < 0 is in principle also possible; this patch adds a check for this.

2009-10-02[PATCH] ext4: retry failed direct IO allocationsEric Sandeen
On a 256M filesystem, doing this in a loop: xfs_io -F -f -d -c 'pwrite 0 64m' test rm -f test eventually leads to ENOSPC. (the xfs_io command does a 64m direct IO write to the file "test") As with other block allocation callers, it looks like we need to potentially retry the allocations on the initial ENOSPC.
