2009-02-05fbmem: don't call copy_from/to_user() with mutex heldAndrea Righi
Avoid calling copy_from/to_user() with fb_info->lock mutex held in fbmem ioctl(). fb_mmap() is called under mm->mmap_sem (A) held, that also acquires fb_info->lock (B); fb_ioctl() takes fb_info->lock (B) and does copy_from/to_user() that might acquire mm->mmap_sem (A), causing a deadlock. NOTE: it doesn't push down the fb_info->lock in each own driver's fb_ioctl(), so there are still potential deadlocks elsewhere.

2009-02-02libata: implement HORKAGE_1_5_GBPS and apply it to WD My BookTejun Heo
3Gbps is often much more prone to transmission failures. It's usually okay to let EH handle speed down after transmission failures but some WD My Book drives completely shutdown after certain transmission failures and after it only power cycling can revive them. Combined with the fact that external drives often end up with cable assembly which is longer than usual and more likely to have intervening gender, this makes these drives very likely to shutdown under certain configurations virtually rendering them unusable. This patch implements HOARKGE_1_5_GBPS and applies it to WD My Book such that 1.5Gbps is forced once the device is identified. Please take a look at the following bz for related reports. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9913 Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
2009-02-02libata: clear dev->ering in smarter wayTejun Heo
dev->ering used to be cleared together with the rest of ata_device in ata_dev_init() which is called whenever a probing event occurs. dev->ering is about to be used to track probing failures so it needs to remain persistent over multiple porbing events. This patch achieves this by doing the following. * Instead of CLEAR_OFFSET, define CLEAR_BEGIN and CLEAR_END and only clear between BEGIN and END. ering is moved after END. The split of persistent area is to allow hotter items remain at the head. * ering is explicitly cleared on ata_dev_disable() and when device attach succeeds. So, ering is persistent throug a device's life time (unless explicitly cleared of course) and also through periods inbetween disablement of an attached device and successful detection of the next one.

2009-02-02modules: Use a better scheme for refcountingEric Dumazet
Current refcounting for modules (done if CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD=y) is using a lot of memory. Each 'struct module' contains an [NR_CPUS] array of full cache lines. This patch uses existing infrastructure (percpu_modalloc() & percpu_modfree()) to allocate percpu space for the refcount storage. Instead of wasting NR_CPUS*128 bytes (on i386), we now use nr_cpu_ids*sizeof(local_t) bytes. On a typical distro, where NR_CPUS=8, shiping 2000 modules, we reduce size of module files by about 2 Mbytes. (1Kb per module) Instead of having all refcounters in the same memory node - with TLB misses because of vmalloc() - this new implementation permits to have better NUMA properties, since each CPU will use storage on its preferred node, thanks to percpu storage.

2009-01-30hrtimers: allow the hot-unplugging of all cpusSebastien Dugue
Impact: fix CPU hotplug hang on Power6 testbox On architectures that support offlining all cpus (at least powerpc/pseries), hot-unpluging the tick_do_timer_cpu can result in a system hang. This comes from the fact that if the cpu going down happens to be the cpu doing the tick, then as the tick_do_timer_cpu handover happens after the cpu is dead (via the CPU_DEAD notification), we're left without ticks, jiffies are frozen and any task relying on timers (msleep, ...) is stuck. That's particularly the case for the cpu looping in __cpu_die() waiting for the dying cpu to be dead. This patch addresses this by having the tick_do_timer_cpu handover happen earlier during the CPU_DYING notification. For this, a new clockevent notification type is introduced (CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_CPU_DYING) which is triggered in hrtimer_cpu_notify().
