2008-02-29rcu: add support for dynamic ticks and preempt rcuSteven Rostedt
The PREEMPT-RCU can get stuck if a CPU goes idle and NO_HZ is set. The idle CPU will not progress the RCU through its grace period and a synchronize_rcu my get stuck. Without this patch I have a box that will not boot when PREEMPT_RCU and NO_HZ are set. That same box boots fine with this patch. This patch comes from the -rt kernel where it has been tested for several months. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2008-02-24libata: automatically use DMADIR if drive/bridge requires itTejun Heo
Back in 2.6.17-rc2, a libata module parameter was added for atapi_dmadir. That's nice, but most SATA devices which need it will tell us about it in their IDENTIFY PACKET response, as bit-15 of word-62 of the returned data (as per ATA7, ATA8 specifications). So for those which specify it, we should automatically use the DMADIR bit. Otherwise, disc writing will fail by default on many SATA-ATAPI drives. This patch adds ATA_DFLAG_DMADIR and make ata_dev_configure() set it if atapi_dmadir is set or identify data indicates DMADIR is necessary. atapi_xlat() is converted to check ATA_DFLAG_DMADIR before setting DMADIR.

2008-02-23futex: runtime enable pi and robust functionalityThomas Gleixner
Not all architectures implement futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(). The default implementation returns -ENOSYS, which is currently not handled inside of the futex guts. Futex PI calls and robust list exits with a held futex result in an endless loop in the futex code on architectures which have no support. Fixing up every place where futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() is called would add a fair amount of extra if/else constructs to the already complex code. It is also not possible to disable the robust feature before user space tries to register robust lists. Compile time disabling is not a good idea either, as there are already architectures with runtime detection of futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic support. Detect the functionality at runtime instead by calling cmpxchg_futex_value_locked() with a NULL pointer from the futex initialization code. This is guaranteed to fail, but the call of futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() happens with pagefaults disabled. On architectures, which use the asm-generic implementation or have a runtime CPU feature detection, a -ENOSYS return value disables the PI/robust features. On architectures with a working implementation the call returns -EFAULT and the PI/robust features are enabled. The relevant syscalls return -ENOSYS and the robust list exit code is blocked, when the detection fails.

2008-02-23PM: Introduce PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE callback stateRafael J. Wysocki
During the last step of hibernation in the "platform" mode (with the help of ACPI) we use the suspend code, including the devices' ->suspend() methods, to prepare the system for entering the ACPI S4 system sleep state. But at least for some devices the operations performed by the ->suspend() callback in that case must be different from its operations during regular suspend. For this reason, introduce the new PM event type PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE and pass it to the device drivers' ->suspend() methods during the last phase of hibernation, so that they can distinguish this case and handle it as appropriate. Modify the drivers that handle PM_EVENT_SUSPEND in a special way and need to handle PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE in the same way. These changes are necessary to fix a hibernation regression related to the i915 driver (ref. http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/22/488). Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2008-02-19libata: eliminate the home grown dma padding in favour ofJames Bottomley
that provided by the block layer ATA requires that all DMA transfers begin and end on word boundaries. Because of this, a large amount of machinery grew up in ide to adjust scatterlists on this basis. However, as of 2.5, the block layer has a dma_alignment variable which ensures both the beginning and length of a DMA transfer are aligned on the dma_alignment boundary. Although the block layer does adjust the beginning of the transfer to ensure this happens, it doesn't actually adjust the length, it merely makes sure that space is allocated for transfers beyond the declared length. The upshot of this is that scatterlists may be padded to any size between the actual length and the length adjusted to the dma_alignment safely knowing that memory is allocated in this region. Right at the moment, SCSI takes the default dma_aligment which is on a 512 byte boundary. Note that this aligment only applies to transfers coming in from user space. However, since all kernel allocations are automatically aligned on a minimum of 32 byte boundaries, it is safe to adjust them in this manner as well. tj: * Adjusting sg after padding is done in block layer. Make libata set queue alignment correctly for ATAPI devices and drop broken sg mangling from ata_sg_setup(). * Use request->raw_data_len for ATAPI transfer chunk size. * Killed qc->raw_nbytes. * Separated out killing qc->n_iter.

2008-02-19block: implement request_queue->dma_drain_neededTejun Heo
Draining shouldn't be done for commands where overflow may indicate data integrity issues. Add dma_drain_needed callback to request_queue. Drain buffer is appened iff this function returns non-zero.

2008-02-19block: add request->raw_data_lenTejun Heo
With padding and draining moved into it, block layer now may extend requests as directed by queue parameters, so now a request has two sizes - the original request size and the extended size which matches the size of area pointed to by bios and later by sgs. The latter size is what lower layers are primarily interested in when allocating, filling up DMA tables and setting up the controller. Both padding and draining extend the data area to accomodate controller characteristics. As any controller which speaks SCSI can handle underflows, feeding larger data area is safe. So, this patch makes the primary data length field, request->data_len, indicate the size of full data area and add a separate length field, request->raw_data_len, for the unmodified request size. The latter is used to report to higher layer (userland) and where the original request size should be fed to the controller or device.

2008-02-19cfq-iosched: add hlist for browsing parallel to the radix treeJens Axboe
It's cumbersome to browse a radix tree from start to finish, especially since we modify keys when a process exits. So add a hlist for the single purpose of browsing over all known cfq_io_contexts, used for exit, io prio change, etc. This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9948 Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2008-02-19fs/block_dev.c: remove #if 0'ed codeAdrian Bunk
Commit b2e895dbd80c420bfc0937c3729b4afe073b3848 #if 0'ed this code stating: <-- snip --> [PATCH] revert blockdev direct io back to 2.6.19 version Andrew Vasquez is reporting as-iosched oopses and a 65% throughput slowdown due to the recent special-casing of direct-io against blockdevs. We don't know why either of these things are occurring. The patch minimally reverts us back to the 2.6.19 code for a 2.6.20 release. <-- snip --> It has since been dead code, and unless someone wants to revive it now it's time to remove it. This patch also makes bio_release_pages() static again and removes the ki_bio_count member from struct kiocb, reverting changes that had been done for this dead code.
