In case gcc does something funny with the stack frames, or the return
from function code, we would like to detect that.
An arch may implement passing of a variable that is unique to the
function and can be saved on entering a function and can be tested
when exiting the function. Usually the frame pointer can be used for
this purpose.
This patch also implements this for x86. Where it passes in the stack
frame of the parent function, and will test that frame on exit.
There was a case in x86_32 with optimize for size (-Os) where, for a
few functions, gcc would align the stack frame and place a copy of the
return address into it. The function graph tracer modified the copy and
not the actual return address. On return from the funtion, it did not go
to the tracer hook, but returned to the parent. This broke the function
graph tracer, because the return of the parent (where gcc did not do
this funky manipulation) returned to the location that the child function
was suppose to. This caused strange kernel crashes.
This test detected the problem and pointed out where the issue was.
This modifies the parameters of one of the functions that the arch
specific code calls, so it includes changes to arch code to accommodate
the new prototype.
Note, I notice that the parsic arch implements its own push_return_trace.
This is now a generic function and the ftrace_push_return_trace should be
used instead. This patch does not touch that code.

This patch adds the kernel side of the PPS support currently named
"LinuxPPS".
PPS means "pulse per second" and a PPS source is just a device which
provides a high precision signal each second so that an application can
use it to adjust system clock time.
Common use is the combination of the NTPD as userland program with a GPS
receiver as PPS source to obtain a wallclock-time with sub-millisecond
synchronisation to UTC.
To obtain this goal the userland programs shoud use the PPS API
specification (RFC 2783 - Pulse-Per-Second API for UNIX-like Operating
Systems, Version 1.0) which in part is implemented by this patch. It
provides a set of chars devices, one per PPS source, which can be used to
get the time signal. The RFC's functions can be implemented by accessing
to these char devices.

On embedded devices, sleep mode conditions can be tricky to handle,
Especially when processors tend to pull-down the w1 bus during sleep. Bus
slaves (such as the ds2760) may interpret this as a reason for power-down
conditions and entirely switch off the device.
This patch adds a callback function pointer to let users switch on and off
the external pull-up resistor. This lets the outside world know whether
the processor is currently actively driving the bus or not.
When this callback is not provided, the code behaviour won't change.

We unified x86 and IA64's handling of multiple dma mapping operations
(struct dma_map_ops in linux/dma-mapping.h) so we can remove duplication
in their arch/include/asm/dma-mapping.h.
This patchset adds include/asm-generic/dma-mapping-common.h that provides
some generic dma mapping function definitions for the users of struct
dma_map_ops. This enables us to remove about 100 lines. This also
enables us to easily add CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG support, which only x86
supports for now. The 4th patch adds CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG support to IA64
by adding only 8 lines.
This patch:
This header file provides some mapping function definitions that the users
of struct dma_map_ops can use.

Enable the use of GCC's coverage testing tool gcov [1] with the Linux
kernel. gcov may be useful for:
* debugging (has this code been reached at all?)
* test improvement (how do I change my test to cover these lines?)
* minimizing kernel configurations (do I need this option if the
associated code is never run?)
The profiling patch incorporates the following changes:
* change kbuild to include profiling flags
* provide functions needed by profiling code
* present profiling data as files in debugfs
Note that on some architectures, enabling gcc's profiling option
"-fprofile-arcs" for the entire kernel may trigger compile/link/
run-time problems, some of which are caused by toolchain bugs and
others which require adjustment of architecture code.
For this reason profiling the entire kernel is initially restricted
to those architectures for which it is known to work without changes.
This restriction can be lifted once an architecture has been tested
and found compatible with gcc's profiling. Profiling of single files
or directories is still available on all platforms (see config help
text).

find_task_by_pid_type_ns is only used to implement find_task_by_vpid and
find_task_by_pid_ns, but both of them pass PIDTYPE_PID as first argument.
So just fold find_task_by_pid_type_ns into find_task_by_pid_ns and use
find_task_by_pid_ns to implement find_task_by_vpid.
While we're at it also remove the exports for find_task_by_pid_ns and
find_task_by_vpid - we don't have any modular callers left as the only
modular caller of he old pre pid namespace find_task_by_pid (gfs2) was
switched to pid_task which operates on a struct pid pointer instead of a
pid_t. Given the confusion about pid_t values vs namespace that's
generally the better option anyway and I think we're better of restricting
modules to do it that way.

This patch fixes mis-accounting of swap usage in memcg.
In the current implementation, memcg's swap account is uncharged only when
swap is completely freed. But there are several cases where swap cannot
be freed cleanly. For handling that, this patch changes that memcg
uncharges swap account when swap has no references other than cache.
By this, memcg's swap entry accounting can be fully synchronous with the
application's behavior.
This patch also changes memcg's hooks for swap-out.

Add file RSS tracking per memory cgroup
We currently don't track file RSS, the RSS we report is actually anon RSS.
All the file mapped pages, come in through the page cache and get
accounted there. This patch adds support for accounting file RSS pages.
It should
1. Help improve the metrics reported by the memory resource controller
2. Will form the basis for a future shared memory accounting heuristic
that has been proposed by Kamezawa.
Unfortunately, we cannot rename the existing "rss" keyword used in
memory.stat to "anon_rss". We however, add "mapped_file" data and hope to
educate the end user through documentation.

Several code paths in reiserfs have a construct like:
if (is_direntry_le_ih(ih = B_N_PITEM_HEAD(src, item_num))) ...
which, in addition to being ugly, end up causing compiler warnings with
gcc 4.4.0. Previous compilers didn't issue a warning.
fs/reiserfs/do_balan.c:1273: warning: operation on `aux_ih' may be undefined
fs/reiserfs/lbalance.c:393: warning: operation on `ih' may be undefined
fs/reiserfs/lbalance.c:421: warning: operation on `ih' may be undefined
fs/reiserfs/lbalance.c:777: warning: operation on `ih' may be undefined
I believe this is due to the ih being passed to macros which evaluate the
argument more than once. This is old code and we haven't seen any
problems with it, but this patch eliminates the warnings.
It converts the multiple evaluation macros to static inlines and does a
preassignment for the cases that were causing the warnings because that
code is just ugly.

- Add a new "mode_bits" field to spi_master
- Use that in spi_setup to validate the spi->mode value being
requested. Setting this new field is now mandatory for any
controller supporting more than vanilla SPI_MODE_0.
- Update all spi_master drivers to:
* Initialize that field
* Remove current spi_setup() checks using that value.

Statistics for softirq doesn't exist.
It will be helpful like statistics for interrupts.
This patch introduces counting the number of softirq,
which will be exported in /proc/softirqs.
When softirq handler consumes much CPU time,
/proc/stat is like the following.
$ while :; do cat /proc/stat | head -n1 ; sleep 10 ; done
cpu 88 0 408 739665 583 28 2 0 0
cpu 450 0 1090 740970 594 28 1294 0 0
^^^^
softirq
In such a situation,
/proc/softirqs shows us which softirq handler is invoked.
We can see the increase rate of softirqs.
<before>
$ cat /proc/softirqs
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 CPU3
HI 0 0 0 0

SCHED 463074 464318 464612 463330
RCU 3505 2948 3947 3673
When CPU TIME of softirq is high,
the rates of increase is the following.
TIMER : 220/sec : CPU1-3
NET_TX : 5/sec : CPU0
NET_RX : 120/sec : CPU0
SCHED : 40-200/sec : all CPU
RCU : 45-58/sec : all CPU
The rates of increase in an idle mode is the following.
TIMER : 250/sec
SCHED : 250/sec
RCU : 2/sec
It seems many softirqs for receiving packets and rcu are invoked. This

Alternative method of mmap() data output handling that provides
better overflow management and a more reliable data stream.
Unlike the previous method, that didn't have any user->kernel
feedback and relied on userspace keeping up, this method relies on
userspace writing its last read position into the control page.
It will ensure new output doesn't overwrite not-yet read events,
new events for which there is no space left are lost and the
overflow counter is incremented, providing exact event loss
numbers.

This patch is inspired by patch recently posted by Johannes Berg. Basically what
my patch does is to group list and a count of addresses into newly introduced
structure netdev_hw_addr_list. This brings us two benefits:
1) struct net_device becames a bit nicer.
2) in the future there will be a possibility to operate with lists independently
on netdevices (with exporting right functions).
I wanted to introduce this patch before I'll post a multicast lists conversion.

When rpc.statd starts up in user space at boot time, it attempts to
write the latest NSM local state number into
/proc/sys/fs/nfs/nsm_local_state.
If lockd.ko isn't loaded yet (as is the case in most configurations),
that file doesn't exist, thus the kernel's NSM state remains set to
its initial value of zero during lockd operation.
This is a problem because rpc.statd and lockd use the NSM state number
to prevent repeated lock recovery on rebooted hosts. If lockd sends
a zero NSM state, but then a delayed SM_NOTIFY with a real NSM state
number is received, there is no way for lockd or rpc.statd to
distinguish that stale SM_NOTIFY from an actual reboot. Thus lock
recovery could be performed after the rebooted host has already
started reclaiming locks, and those locks will be lost.
We could change /etc/init.d/nfslock so it always modprobes lockd.ko
before starting rpc.statd. However, if lockd.ko is ever unloaded
and reloaded, we are back at square one, since the NSM state is not
preserved across an unload/reload cycle. This may happen frequently
on clients that use automounter. A period of NFS inactivity causes
lockd.ko to be unloaded, and the kernel loses its NSM state setting.
Instead, let's use the fact that rpc.statd plants the local system's
NSM state in every SM_MON (and SM_UNMON) reply. lockd performs a
synchronous SM_MON upcall to the local rpc.statd _before_ sending its
first NLM request to a new remote. This would permit rpc.statd to
provide the current NSM state to lockd, even after lockd.ko had been
unloaded and reloaded.
Note that NLMPROC_LOCK arguments are constructed before the
nsm_monitor() call, so we have to rearrange argument construction very
slightly to make this all work out.
And, the kernel appears to treat NSM state as a u32 (see struct
nlm_args and nsm_res). Make nsm_local_state a u32 as well, to ensure
we don't get bogus comparison results.

backchannel use
For nfs41 callbacks we need an svc_xprt to process requests coming up the
backchannel socket as rpc_rqst's that are transformed into svc_rqst's that
need a rq_xprt to be processed.
The svc_{udp,tcp}_create methods are too heavy for this job as svc_create_socket
creates an actual socket to listen on while for nfs41 we're "reusing" the
fore channel's socket.

Implement the NFSv4.1 backchannel service. Invokes the common callback
processing logic svc_process_common() to authenticate the call and
dispatch the appropriate NFSv4.1 XDR decoder and operation procedure.
It then invokes bc_send() to send the reply over the same connection.
bc_send() is implemented in a separate patch.
At this time there is no slot validation or reply cache handling.

Adds rpc_run_bc_task() which is called by the NFS callback service to
process backchannel requests. It performs similar work to rpc_run_task()
though "schedules" the backchannel task to be executed starting at the
call_trasmit state in the RPC state machine.
It also introduces some miscellaneous updates to the argument validation,
call_transmit, and transport cleanup functions to take into account
that there are now forechannel and backchannel tasks.
Backchannel requests do not carry an RPC message structure, since the
payload has already been XDR encoded using the existing NFSv4 callback
mechanism.
Introduce a new transmit state for the client to reply on to backchannel
requests. This new state simply reserves the transport and issues the
reply. In case of a connection related error, disconnects the transport and
drops the reply. It requires the forechannel to re-establish the connection
and the server to retransmit the request, as stated in NFSv4.1 section
2.9.2 "Client and Server Transport Behavior".
Note: There is no need to loop attempting to reserve the transport. If EAGAIN
is returned by xprt_prepare_transmit(), return with tk_status == 0,
setting tk_action to call_bc_transmit. rpc_execute() will invoke it again
after the task is taken off the sleep queue.

This patch introduces support to setup the callback xprt on the client side.
It allocates/ destroys the preallocated memory structures used to process
backchannel requests.
At setup time, xprt_setup_backchannel() is invoked to allocate one or
more rpc_rqst structures and substructures. This ensures that they
are available when an RPC callback arrives. The rpc_rqst structures
are maintained in a linked list attached to the rpc_xprt structure.
We keep track of the number of allocations so that they can be correctly
removed when the channel is destroyed.
When an RPC callback arrives, xprt_alloc_bc_request() is invoked to
obtain a preallocated rpc_rqst structure. An rpc_xprt structure is
returned, and its RPC_BC_PREALLOC_IN_USE bit is set in
rpc_xprt->bc_flags. The structure is removed from the the list
since it is now in use, and it will be later added back when its
user is done with it.
After the RPC callback replies, the rpc_rqst structure is returned
by invoking xprt_free_bc_request(). This clears the
RPC_BC_PREALLOC_IN_USE bit and adds it back to the list, allowing it
to be reused by a subsequent RPC callback request.
To be consistent with the reception of RPC messages, the backchannel requests
should be placed into the 'struct rpc_rqst' rq_rcv_buf, which is then in turn
copied to the 'struct rpc_rqst' rq_private_buf.

Adds new list of rpc_xprt structures, and a readers/writers lock to
protect the list. The list is used to preallocate resources for
the backchannel during backchannel requests. Callbacks are not
expected to cause significant latency, so only one callback will
be allowed at this time.
It also adds a pointer to the NFS callback service so that
requests can be directed to it for processing.
New callback members added to svc_serv. The NFSv4.1 callback service will
sleep on the svc_serv->svc_cb_waitq until new callback requests arrive.
The request will be queued in svc_serv->svc_cb_list. This patch adds this
list, the sleep queue and spinlock to svc_serv.

At mount, nfs_alloc_client sets the cl_state NFS4CLNT_LEASE_EXPIRED bit
and nfs4_alloc_session sets the NFS4CLNT_SESSION_SETUP bit, so both bits are
set when nfs4_lookup_root calls nfs4_recover_expired_lease which schedules
the nfs4_state_manager and waits for it to complete.
Place the session setup after the clientid establishment in nfs4_state_manager
so that the session is setup right after the clientid has been established
without rescheduling the state manager.
Unlike nfsv4.0, the nfs_client struct is not ready to use until the session
has been established. Postpone marking the nfs_client struct to NFS_CS_READY
until after a successful CREATE_SESSION call so that other threads cannot use
the client until the session is established.
If the EXCHANGE_ID call fails and the session has not been setup (the
NFS4CLNT_SESSION_SETUP bit is set), mark the client with the error and return.
If the session setup CREATE_SESSION call fails with NFS4ERR_STALE_CLIENTID
which could occur due to server reboot or network partition inbetween the
EXCHANGE_ID and CREATE_SESSION call, reset the NFS4CLNT_LEASE_EXPIRED and
NFS4CLNT_SESSION_SETUP bits and try again.
If the CREATE_SESSION call fails with other errors, mark the client with
the error and return.

[nfs41: NFS_CS_SESSION_SETUP cl_cons_state for back channel setup]
On session setup, the CREATE_SESSION reply races with the server back channel
probe which needs to succeed to setup the back channel. Set a new
cl_cons_state NFS_CS_SESSION_SETUP just prior to the CREATE_SESSION call
and add it as a valid state to nfs_find_client so that the client back channel
can find the nfs_client struct and won't drop the server backchannel probe.
Use a new cl_cons_state so that NFSv4.0 back channel behaviour which only
sets NFS_CS_READY is unchanged.
Adjust waiting on the nfs_client_active_wq accordingly.
