2008-04-30signals: add set_restore_sigmaskRoland McGrath
This adds the set_restore_sigmask() inline in <linux/thread_info.h> and replaces every set_thread_flag(TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK) with a call to it. No change, but abstracts the details of the flag protocol from all the calls.

2008-04-30signals: fix /sbin/init protection from unwanted signalsOleg Nesterov
The global init has a lot of long standing problems with the unhandled fatal signals. - The "is_global_init(current)" check in get_signal_to_deliver() protects only the main thread. Sub-thread can dequee the fatal signal and shutdown the whole thread group except the main thread. If it dequeues SIGSTOP /sbin/init will be stopped, this is not right too. Note that we can't use is_global_init(->group_leader), this breaks exec and this can't solve other problems we have. - Even if afterwards ignored, the fatal signals sets SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT on delivery. This breaks exec, has other bad implications, and this is just wrong. Introduce the new SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE flag to fix these problems. It also helps to solve some other problems addressed by the subsequent patches. Currently we use this flag for the global init only, but it could also be used by kthreads and (perhaps) by the sub-namespace inits. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Acked-by: "Eric W.

2008-04-30signals: join send_sigqueue() with send_group_sigqueue()Oleg Nesterov
We export send_sigqueue() and send_group_sigqueue() for the only user, posix_timer_event(). This is a bit silly, because both are just trivial helpers on top of do_send_sigqueue() and because the we pass the unused .si_signo parameter. Kill them both, rename do_send_sigqueue() to send_sigqueue(), and export it.

2008-04-30signals: re-assign CLD_CONTINUED notification from the sender to recieverOleg Nesterov
Based on discussion with Jiri and Roland. In short: currently handle_stop_signal(SIGCONT, p) sends the notification to p->parent, with this patch p itself notifies its parent when it becomes running. handle_stop_signal(SIGCONT) has to drop ->siglock temporary in order to notify the parent with do_notify_parent_cldstop(). This leads to multiple problems: - as Jiri Kosina pointed out, the stopped task can resume without actually seeing SIGCONT which may have a handler. - we race with another sig_kernel_stop() signal which may come in that window. - we race with sig_fatal() signals which may set SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT in that window. - we can't avoid taking tasklist_lock() while sending SIGCONT. With this patch handle_stop_signal() just sets the new SIGNAL_CLD_CONTINUED flag in p->signal->flags and returns. The notification is sent by the first task which returns from finish_stop() (there should be at least one) or any other signalled thread from get_signal_to_deliver(). This is a user-visible change. Say, currently kill(SIGCONT, stopped_child) can't return without seeing SIGCHLD, with this patch SIGCHLD can be delayed unpredictably. Another difference is that if the child is ptraced by another process, CLD_CONTINUED may be delivered to ->real_parent after ptrace_detach() while currently it always goes to the tracer which doesn't actually need this notification. Hopefully not a problem. The patch asks for the futher obvious cleanups, I'll send them separately.

It's possible that there are out-of-tree drivers that use these interfaces.

2008-04-28reiserfs: unpack tails on quota filesJan Kara
Quota files cannot have tails because quota_write and quota_read functions do not support them. So far when quota files did have tail, we just refused to turn quotas on it. Sadly this check has been wrong and so there are now plenty installations where quota files don't have NOTAIL flag set and so now after fixing the check, they suddently fail to turn quotas on. Since it's easy to unpack the tail from kernel, do this from reiserfs_quota_on() which solves the problem and is generally nicer to users anyway.

2008-04-28md: introduce get_priority_stripe() to improve raid456 write performanceDan Williams
Improve write performance by preventing the delayed_list from dumping all its stripes onto the handle_list in one shot. Delayed stripes are now further delayed by being held on the 'hold_list'. The 'hold_list' is bypassed when: * a STRIPE_IO_STARTED stripe is found at the head of 'handle_list' * 'handle_list' is empty and i/o is being done to satisfy full stripe-width write requests * 'bypass_count' is less than 'bypass_threshold'. By default the threshold is 1, i.e. every other stripe handled is a preread stripe provided the top two conditions are false.

This defaults to fairness and modest performance gains out of the box. Changes since v2: * [neilb@suse.de]: kill STRIPE_PRIO_HI and preread_needed as they are not necessary, the important change was clearing STRIPE_DELAYED in add_stripe_bio and this has been moved out to make_request for the hang fix. * [neilb@suse.de]: simplify get_priority_stripe * [dan.j.williams@intel.com]: reset the bypass_count when ->hold_list is sampled empty (+11%) * [dan.j.williams@intel.com]: decrement the bypass_count at the detection of stripes being naturally promoted off of hold_list +2%. Note, resetting bypass_count instead of decrementing on these events yields +4% but that is probably too aggressive. Changes since v3: * cosmetic fixups Tested-by: James W.

2008-04-28PM/gxfb: add hook to PM console layer that allows disabling of suspend VT switchAndres Salomon
Prior to suspend, we allocate and switch to a new VT; after suspend, we switch back to the original VT. This can be slow, and is completely unnecessary if the framebuffer we're using can restore video properly. This adds a hook that allows drivers to select whether or not to do this vt switch, and changes the gxfb driver to call this hook. It also adds a module param to gxfb to allow controlling of the vt switch (defaulting to no switch). (Note: I'm not convinced that console_sem is the best way to protect this, but we should probably have some form of locking..)

2008-04-28fb: add support for foreign endiannessAnton Vorontsov
Add support for the framebuffers with non-native endianness. This is done via FBINFO_FOREIGN_ENDIAN flag that will be used by the drivers. Depending on the host endianness this flag will be overwritten by FBINFO_BE_MATH internal flag, or cleared. Tested to work on MPC8360E-RDK (BE) + Fujitsu MINT framebuffer (LE).

2008-04-28quota: quota core changes for quotaon on remountJan Kara
Currently, we just turn quotas off on remount of filesystem to read-only state. The patch below adds necessary framework so that we can turn quotas off on remount RO but we are able to automatically reenable them again when filesystem is remounted to RW state. All we need to do is to keep references to inodes of quota files when remounting RO and using these references to reenable quotas when remounting RW.
