2007-03-05[PATCH] Fix soft lockup with iSeries viocd driverTony Breeds
Fix soft lockup with iSeries viocd driver, caused by eventually calling end_that_request_first() with nr_bytes 0. Some versions of hald do an SG_IO ioctl on the viocd device which becomes a request with hard_nr_sectors and hard_cur_sectors set to zero. Passing zero as the number of sectors to end_request() (which calls end_that_request_first()) causes an infinite loop when the bio is being freed. This patch makes sure that the zero is never passed. It only requires some number larger the the request size the terminate the loop. The lockup is triggered by hald, interrogating the device.

2007-03-05[PATCH] msi: support masking msi irqs without a mask bitEric W. Biederman
For devices that do not support msi-x we only support 1 interrupt. Therefore we can disable that one interrupt by disabling the msi capability itself. If we leave the intx interrupts disabled while we have the msi capability disabled no interrupts should be delivered from that device. Devices with just the minimal msi support (and thus hitting this code path) include things like the intel e1000 nic, so it looks like is going to be a fairly common case and thus important to get right.

2007-03-05[PATCH] msi: fix up the msi enable/disable logicEric W. Biederman
enable/disable_msi_mode have several side effects which keeps them from being generally useful. So this patch replaces them with with two much more targeted functions: msi_set_enable and msix_set_enable. This patch makes pci_dev->msi_enabled and pci_dev->msix_enabled the definitive way to test if linux has enabled the msi capability, and has the appropriate msi data structures set up. This patch ensures that while writing the msi messages in save/restore and during device initialization we have the msi capability disabled so we don't get into races. The pci spec requires that we do not have the msi capability enabled and the msi messages unmasked while we write the messages. Completely disabling the capability is overkill but it is easy :) Care has been taken so we never have both a msi capability and intx enabled simultaneously. We haven't run into a problem yet but better safe then sorry. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2007-03-05[PATCH] msi: sanely support hardware level msi disablingEric W. Biederman
In some cases when we are not using msi we need a way to ensure that the hardware does not have an msi capability enabled. Currently the code has been calling disable_msi_mode to try and achieve that. However disable_msi_mode has several other side effects and is only available when msi support is compiled in so it isn't really appropriate. Instead this patch implements pci_msi_off which disables all msi and msix capabilities unconditionally with no additional side effects. pci_disable_device was redundantly clearing the bus master enable flag and clearing the msi enable bit. A device that is not allowed to perform bus mastering operations cannot generate intx or msi interrupt messages as those are essentially a special case of dma, and require bus mastering. So the call in pci_disable_device to disable msi capabilities was redundant. quirk_pcie_pxh also called disable_msi_mode and is updated to use pci_msi_off. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2007-03-04KVM: Per-vcpu inodesAvi Kivity
Allocate a distinct inode for every vcpu in a VM. This has the following benefits: - the filp cachelines are no longer bounced when f_count is incremented on every ioctl() - the API and internal code are distinctly clearer; for example, on the KVM_GET_REGS ioctl, there is no need to copy the vcpu number from userspace and then copy the registers back; the vcpu identity is derived from the fd used to make the call Right now the performance benefits are completely theoretical since (a) we don't support more than one vcpu per VM and (b) virtualization hardware inefficiencies completely everwhelm any cacheline bouncing effects. But both of these will change, and we need to prepare the API today. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
