2008-11-11fix for account_group_exec_runtime(), make sure ->signal can't be freed ↵Oleg Nesterov
under rq->lock Impact: fix hang/crash on ia64 under high load This is ugly, but the simplest patch by far. Unlike other similar routines, account_group_exec_runtime() could be called "implicitly" from within scheduler after exit_notify(). This means we can race with the parent doing release_task(), we can't just check ->signal != NULL. Change __exit_signal() to do spin_unlock_wait(&task_rq(tsk)->lock) before __cleanup_signal() to make sure ->signal can't be freed under task_rq(tsk)->lock. Note that task_rq_unlock_wait() doesn't care about the case when tsk changes cpu/rq under us, this should be OK. Thanks to Ingo who nacked my previous buggy patch.

2008-11-10libata: revert convert-to-block-tagging patchesTejun Heo
This patch reverts the following three commits which convert libata to use block layer tagging. 43a49cbdf31e812c0d8f553d433b09b421f5d52c e013e13bf605b9e6b702adffbe2853cfc60e7806 2fca5ccf97d2c28bcfce44f5b07d85e74e3cd18e Although using block layer tagging is the right direction, due to the tight coupling among tag number, data structure allocation and hardware command slot allocation, libata doesn't work correctly with the current conversion. The biggest problem is guaranteeing that tag 0 is always used for non-NCQ commands. Due to the way blk-tag is implemented and how SCSI starts and finishes requests, such guarantee can't be made. I'm not sure whether this would actually break any low level driver but it doesn't look like a good idea to break such assumption given the frailty of ATA controllers. So, for the time being, keep using the old dumb in-libata qc allocation.

2008-11-09clarify usage expectations for cnt32_to_63()Nicolas Pitre
Currently, all existing users of cnt32_to_63() are fine since the CPU architectures where it is used don't do read access reordering, and user mode preemption is disabled already. It is nevertheless a good idea to better elaborate usage requirements wrt preemption, and use an explicit memory barrier on SMP to avoid different CPUs accessing the counter value in the wrong order. On UP a simple compiler barrier is sufficient.

2008-11-06net: Fix recursive descent in __scm_destroy().David S. Miller
__scm_destroy() walks the list of file descriptors in the scm_fp_list pointed to by the scm_cookie argument. Those, in turn, can close sockets and invoke __scm_destroy() again. There is nothing which limits how deeply this can occur. The idea for how to fix this is from Linus. Basically, we do all of the fput()s at the top level by collecting all of the scm_fp_list objects hit by an fput(). Inside of the initial __scm_destroy() we keep running the list until it is empty.

Fix the hrtimer_add_expires_ns() function. It should take a 'u64 ns' argument, but rather takes an 'unsigned long ns' argument - which might only be 32-bits. On FRV, this results in the kernel locking up because hrtimer_forward() passes the result of a 64-bit multiplication to this function, for which the compiler discards the top 32-bits - something that didn't happen when ktime_add_ns() was called directly.

2008-11-06cpumask: introduce new API, without changing anythingRusty Russell
Impact: introduce new APIs We want to deprecate cpumasks on the stack, as we are headed for gynormous numbers of CPUs. Eventually, we want to head towards an undefined 'struct cpumask' so they can never be declared on stack. 1) New cpumask functions which take pointers instead of copies. (cpus_* -> cpumask_*) 2) Several new helpers to reduce requirements for temporary cpumasks (cpumask_first_and, cpumask_next_and, cpumask_any_and) 3) Helpers for declaring cpumasks on or offstack for large NR_CPUS (cpumask_var_t, alloc_cpumask_var and free_cpumask_var) 4) 'struct cpumask' for explicitness and to mark new-style code. 5) Make iterator functions stop at nr_cpu_ids (a runtime constant), not NR_CPUS for time efficiency and for smaller dynamic allocations in future. 6) cpumask_copy() so we can allocate less than a full cpumask eventually (for alloc_cpumask_var), and so we can eliminate the 'struct cpumask' definition eventually. 7) work_on_cpu() helper for doing task on a CPU, rather than saving old cpumask for current thread and manipulating it. 8) smp_call_function_many() which is smp_call_function_mask() except taking a cpumask pointer. Note that this patch simply introduces the new functions and leaves the obsolescent ones in place. This is to simplify the transition patches.

2008-11-05sched: re-tune balancingIngo Molnar
Impact: improve wakeup affinity on NUMA systems, tweak SMP systems Given the fixes+tweaks to the wakeup-buddy code, re-tweak the domain balancing defaults on NUMA and SMP systems. Turn on SD_WAKE_AFFINE which was off on x86 NUMA - there's no reason why we would not want to have wakeup affinity across nodes as well. (we already do this in the standard NUMA template.) lat_ctx on a NUMA box is particularly happy about this change: before: | phoenix:~/l> ./lat_ctx -s 0 2 | "size=0k ovr=2.60 | 2 5.70 after: | phoenix:~/l> ./lat_ctx -s 0 2 | "size=0k ovr=2.65 | 2 2.07 a 2.75x speedup. pipe-test is similarly happy about it too: | phoenix:~/sched-tests> ./pipe-test | 18.26 usecs/loop. | 14.70 usecs/loop. | 14.38 usecs/loop. | 10.55 usecs/loop. # +WAKE_AFFINE on domain0+domain1 | 8.63 usecs/loop. | 8.59 usecs/loop. | 9.03 usecs/loop. | 8.94 usecs/loop. | 8.96 usecs/loop. | 8.63 usecs/loop. Also: - disable SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE on NUMA and SMP domains (keep it for siblings) - enable SD_WAKE_BALANCE on SMP domains Sysbench+postgresql improves all around the board, quite significantly: .28-rc3-11474e2c .28-rc3-11474e2c-tune ------------------------------------------------- 1: 571 688 +17.08% 2: 1236 1206 -2.55% 4: 2381 2642 +9.89% 8: 4958 5164 +3.99% 16: 9580 9574 -0.07% 32: 7128 8118 +12.20% 64: 7342 8266 +11.18% 128: 7342 8064 +8.95% 256: 7519 7884 +4.62% 512: 7350 7731 +4.93% ------------------------------------------------- SUM: 55412 59341 +6.62% So it's a win both for the runup portion, the peak area and the tail.

2008-11-05[MTD] [NOR] Fix cfi_send_gen_cmd handling of x16 devices in x8 mode (v4)Eric W. Biederman
For "unlock" cycles to 16bit devices in 8bit compatibility mode we need to use the byte addresses 0xaaa and 0x555. These effectively match the word address 0x555 and 0x2aa, except the latter has its low bit set. Most chips don't care about the value of the 'A-1' pin in x8 mode, but some -- like the ST M29W320D -- do. So we need to be careful to set it where appropriate. cfi_send_gen_cmd is only ever passed addresses where the low byte is 0x00, 0x55 or 0xaa. Of those, only addresses ending 0xaa are affected by this patch, by masking in the extra low bit when the device is known to be in compatibility mode. [dwmw2: Do it only when (cmd_ofs & 0xff) == 0xaa] v4: Fix stupid typo in cfi_build_cmd_addr that failed to compile I'm writing this patch way to late at night. v3: Bring all of the work back into cfi_build_cmd_addr including calling of map_bankwidth(map) and cfi_interleave(cfi) So every caller doesn't need to. v2: Only modified the address if we our device_type is larger than our bus width.

Impact: add new generic io_map_*() APIs Graphics devices have large PCI apertures which would consume a significant fraction of a 32-bit address space if mapped during driver initialization. Using ioremap at runtime is impractical as it is too slow. This new set of interfaces uses atomic mappings on 32-bit processors and a large static mapping on 64-bit processors to provide reasonable 32-bit performance and optimal 64-bit performance.

libata currently imposes a UDMA5 max transfer rate and 200 sector max transfer size for SATA devices that sit behind a pata-sata bridge. Lots of devices have known good bridges that don't need this limit applied. The MTRON SSD disks are such devices. Transfer rates are increased by 20-30% with the restriction removed. So add a "blacklist" entry for the MTRON devices, with a flag indicating that the bridge is known good. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
2008-10-31gianfar: Fix race in TBI/SerDes configurationTrent Piepho
The init_phy() function attaches to the PHY, then configures the SerDes<->TBI link (in SGMII mode). The TBI is on the MDIO bus with the PHY (sort of) and is accessed via the gianfar's MDIO registers, using the functions gfar_local_mdio_read/write(), which don't do any locking. The previously attached PHY will start a work-queue on a timer, and probably an irq handler as well, which will talk to the PHY and thus use the MDIO bus. This uses phy_read/write(), which have locking, but not against the gfar_local_mdio versions. The result is that PHY code will try to use the MDIO bus at the same time as the SerDes setup code, corrupting the transfers. Setting up the SerDes before attaching to the PHY will insure that there is no race between the SerDes code and *our* PHY, but doesn't fix everything. Typically the PHYs for all gianfar devices are on the same MDIO bus, which is associated with the first gianfar device. This means that the first gianfar's SerDes code could corrupt the MDIO transfers for a different gianfar's PHY. The lock used by phy_read/write() is contained in the mii_bus structure, which is pointed to by the PHY. This is difficult to access from the gianfar drivers, as there is no link between a gianfar device and the mii_bus which shares the same MDIO registers. As far as the device layer and drivers are concerned they are two unrelated devices (which happen to share registers). Generally all gianfar devices' PHYs will be on the bus associated with the first gianfar. But this might not be the case, so simply locking the gianfar's PHY's mii bus might not lock the mii bus that the SerDes setup code is going to use. We solve this by having the code that creates the gianfar platform device look in the device tree for an mdio device that shares the gianfar's registers. If one is found the ID of its platform device is saved in the gianfar's platform data. A new function in the gianfar mii code, gfar_get_miibus(), can use the bus ID to search through the platform devices for a gianfar_mdio device with the right ID. The platform device's driver data is the mii_bus structure, which the SerDes setup code can use to lock the current bus.

2008-10-30nfsd: fix vm overcommit crashAlan Cox
Junjiro R. Okajima reported a problem where knfsd crashes if you are using it to export shmemfs objects and run strict overcommit. In this situation the current->mm based modifier to the overcommit goes through a NULL pointer. We could simply check for NULL and skip the modifier but we've caught other real bugs in the past from mm being NULL here - cases where we did need a valid mm set up (eg the exec bug about a year ago). To preserve the checks and get the logic we want shuffle the checking around and add a new helper to the vm_ security wrappers Also fix a current->mm reference in nommu that should use the passed mm [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix build] Reported-by: Junjiro R.

2008-10-30mm: increase the default mlock limit from 32k to 64kKurt Garloff
By default, non-privileged tasks can only mlock() a small amount of memory to avoid a DoS attack by ordinary users. The Linux kernel defaulted to 32k (on a 4k page size system) to accommodate the needs of gpg. However, newer gpg2 needs 64k in various circumstances and otherwise fails miserably, see bnc#329675. Change the default to 64k, and make it more agnostic to PAGE_SIZE.
