2009-02-02libata: check onlineness before using SPD in sata_down_spd_limit()Tejun Heo
sata_down_spd_limit() should check whether the link is online before using the SPD value to determine how to limit the link speed. Factor out onlineness test and test it from sata_down_spd_limit(). Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

2009-02-02libata: fix EH device failure handlingTejun Heo
The dev->pio_mode > XFER_PIO_0 test is there to avoid unnecessary speed down warning messages but it accidentally disabled SATA link spd down during configuration phase after reset where PIO mode is always zero. This patch fixes the problem by moving the test where it belongs. This makes libata probing sequence behave better when the connection is flaky at higher link speeds which isn't too uncommon for eSATA devices.

2009-02-02ahci: add a module parameter to ignore the SSS flags for async scanningArjan van de Ven
The SSS flag, which directs the OS to spin up one disk at a time to not have the PSU blow out, sometimes gets set even when not needed. The effect of this is a longer-than-needed boot time. This patch adds a module parameter that makes the driver ignore SSS at least as far as the parallel scan during boot is concerned...

2009-02-01Manually revert "mlock: downgrade mmap sem while populating mlocked regions"Linus Torvalds
This essentially reverts commit 8edb08caf68184fb170f4f69c7445929e199eaea. It downgraded our mmap semaphore to a read-lock while mlocking pages, in order to allow other threads (and external accesses like "ps" et al) to walk the vma lists and take page faults etc. Which is a nice idea, but the implementation does not work. Because we cannot upgrade the lock back to a write lock without releasing the mmap semaphore, the code had to release the lock entirely and then re-take it as a writelock. However, that meant that the caller possibly lost the vma chain that it was following, since now another thread could come in and mmap/munmap the range. The code tried to work around that by just looking up the vma again and erroring out if that happened, but quite frankly, that was just a buggy hack that doesn't actually protect against anything (the other thread could just have replaced the vma with another one instead of totally unmapping it). The only way to downgrade to a read map _reliably_ is to do it at the end, which is likely the right thing to do: do all the 'vma' operations with the write-lock held, then downgrade to a read after completing them all, and then do the "populate the newly mlocked regions" while holding just the read lock. And then just drop the read-lock and return to user space. The (perhaps somewhat simpler) alternative is to just make all the callers of mlock_vma_pages_range() know that the mmap lock got dropped, and just re-grab the mmap semaphore if it needs to mlock more than one vma region. So we can do this "downgrade mmap sem while populating mlocked regions" thing right, but the way it was done here was absolutely not correct. Thus the revert, in the expectation that we will do it all correctly some day.

2009-01-31Fix memory corruption in console selectionMikulas Patocka
Fix an off-by-two memory error in console selection. The loop below goes from sel_start to sel_end (inclusive), so it writes one more character. This one more character was added to the allocated size (+1), but it was not multiplied by an UTF-8 multiplier. This patch fixes a memory corruption when UTF-8 console is used and the user selects a few characters, all of them 3-byte in UTF-8 (for example a frame line). When memory redzones are enabled, a redzone corruption is reported. When they are not enabled, trashing of random memory occurs.

2009-01-31Stop playing silly games with the VM_ACCOUNT flagLinus Torvalds
The mmap_region() code would temporarily set the VM_ACCOUNT flag for anonymous shared mappings just to inform shmem_zero_setup() that it should enable accounting for the resulting shm object. It would then clear the flag after calling ->mmap (for the /dev/zero case) or doing shmem_zero_setup() (for the MAP_ANON case). This just resulted in vma merge issues, but also made for just unnecessary confusion. Use the already-existing VM_NORESERVE flag for this instead, and let shmem_{zero|file}_setup() just figure it out from that. This also happens to make it obvious that the new DRI2 GEM layer uses a non-reserving backing store for its object allocation - which is quite possibly not intentional. But since I didn't want to change semantics in this patch, I left it alone, and just updated the caller to use the new flag semantics. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

As the mmap handler gets called under mmap_sem, and we may grab mmap_sem elsewhere under the socket lock to access user data, we should avoid grabbing the socket lock in the mmap handler.

Impact: prevent false positive WARN_ON() in clockevents_program_event() clock_was_set() changes the base->offset of CLOCK_REALTIME and enforces the reprogramming of the clockevent device to expire timers which are based on CLOCK_REALTIME.

2009-01-30hrtimers: allow the hot-unplugging of all cpusSebastien Dugue
Impact: fix CPU hotplug hang on Power6 testbox On architectures that support offlining all cpus (at least powerpc/pseries), hot-unpluging the tick_do_timer_cpu can result in a system hang. This comes from the fact that if the cpu going down happens to be the cpu doing the tick, then as the tick_do_timer_cpu handover happens after the cpu is dead (via the CPU_DEAD notification), we're left without ticks, jiffies are frozen and any task relying on timers (msleep, ...) is stuck. That's particularly the case for the cpu looping in __cpu_die() waiting for the dying cpu to be dead. This patch addresses this by having the tick_do_timer_cpu handover happen earlier during the CPU_DYING notification. For this, a new clockevent notification type is introduced (CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_CPU_DYING) which is triggered in hrtimer_cpu_notify().

2009-01-30hrtimers: increase clock min delta threshold while interrupt hangingFrederic Weisbecker
Impact: avoid timer IRQ hanging slow systems While using the function graph tracer on a virtualized system, the hrtimer_interrupt can hang the system on an infinite loop. This can be caused in several situations: - the hardware is very slow and HZ is set too high - something intrusive is slowing the system down (tracing under emulation) ... and the next clock events to program are always before the current time. This patch implements a reasonable compromise: if such a situation is detected, we share the CPUs time in 1/4 to process the hrtimer interrupts. This is enough to let the system running without serious starvation. It has been successfully tested under VirtualBox with 1000 HZ and 100 HZ with function graph tracer launched. On both cases, the clock events were increased until about 25 ms periodic ticks, which means 40 HZ. So we change a hard to debug hang into a warning message and a system that still manages to limp along.

2009-01-30MIPS: RB532: Remove {get,set}_434_reg()Phil Sutter
These kernel symbols are unused. Also, since dev3 init has been moved to devices.c, set_434_reg() breaks compiling as it uses dev3. Signed-off-by: Phil Sutter <n0-1@freewrt.org> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
2009-01-30MIPS: RB532: Move dev3 init code to devices.cPhil Sutter
This code doesn't belong to gpio.c, as it's completely unrelated to GPIO. As dev1 and dev2 init code is in devices.c, it seems to be a more adequate place. Signed-off-by: Phil Sutter <n0-1@freewrt.org> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
