2009-06-11asm-generic: add generic NOMMU versions of some headersArnd Bergmann
Memory management in generic is highly architecture specific, but on NOMMU architectures, it is mostly trivial, so just add a default implementation in asm-generic that applies to all NOMMU architectures. The two files cache.h and cacheflush.h can possibly also be used by architectures that have an MMU but never require flushing the cache or have cache lines larger than 32 bytes.

2009-06-11asm-generic: add generic atomic.h and io.hArnd Bergmann
atomic.h and io.h are based on the mn10300 architecture, which is already pretty generic and can be used by other architectures that do not have hardware support for atomic operations or out-of-order I/O access. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
2009-06-11asm-generic: add legacy I/O header filesArnd Bergmann
The dma.h, hw_irq.h, serial.h and timex.h files originally described PC-style i8237, i8259A, i8250, i8253 and i8255 chips as well as the VGA style text mode graphics. Modern architectures live happily without these specific interfaces, but a few definitions from these headers keep getting used in common code. The new generic headers are what most architectures use anyway nowadays, just implementing the minimal definitions.

2009-06-11asm-generic: add generic versions of common headersArnd Bergmann
These are all kernel internal interfaces that get copied around a lot. In most cases, architectures can provide their own optimized versions, but these generic versions can work as well. I have tried to use the most common contents of each header to allow existing architectures to migrate easily. Thanks to Remis for suggesting a number of cleanups.

2009-06-11asm-generic: make bitops.h usableArnd Bergmann
bitops.h apparently suffered from some level of bitrot, it was missing the smp_mb__{before,after}_clear_bit functions, and included other headers in an invalid order. This changes the file so that new architectures can use it out of the box. Signed-off-by: Remis Lima Baima <remis.developer@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
2009-06-11asm-generic: make pci.h usable directlyArnd Bergmann
Some generic code is using the horribly misnamed PCI_DMA_BUS_IS_PHYS from asm/pci.h. This makes sure that an architecture without PCI support does not have to define this itself but can rely on the asm-generic version.

2009-06-11asm-generic: make get_rtc_time overridableArnd Bergmann
Evidently, set_rtc_time is supposed to be overridable by architectures that define their own version, but unfortunately, get_rtc_ss would in that case still use the generic version. This makes get_rtc_ss call the real set_rtc_time to let architectures define their own version. The change should fix the "Extended RTC operation" on Alpha, which uses the incorrect get_rtc_ss call. It also allows PowerPC to use the asm-generic/rtc.h file in the future.

2009-06-11asm-generic: rename page.h and uaccess.hArnd Bergmann
The current asm-generic/page.h only contains the get_order function, and asm-generic/uaccess.h only implements unaligned accesses. This renames the file to getorder.h and uaccess-unaligned.h to make room for new page.h and uaccess.h file that will be usable by all simple (e.g. nommu) architectures.

2009-06-11asm-generic: rename atomic.h to atomic-long.hArnd Bergmann

2009-06-11asm-generic: add a generic unistd.hArnd Bergmann
A new architecture should only define a minimal set of system calls while still providing the full functionality. This version of unistd.h has gone through intensive review to make sure that by default it only enables syscalls that do not already have a more featureful replacement. It is modeled after the x86-64 version of unistd.h, which unifies the syscall number definition and the actual system call table in a single file, in order to keep them synchronized much more easily. This first version still keeps legacy system call definitions around, guarded by various #ifdefs, and with numbers larger than 1024. The idea behind this is to make it easier for new architectures to transition from a full list to the reduced set. In particular, the new microblaze architecture that should migrate to using the generic ABI headers can at least use an existing uClibc source tree without major rewrites during the conversion. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
2009-06-11asm-generic: add generic ABI headersArnd Bergmann
These header files are typically copied from an existing architecture into any new one, slightly modified and then remain untouched until the end of time in the name of ABI stability. To make it easier for future architectures, provide a sane generic version here. In cases where multiple architectures already use identical code, I used the most common version. In cases like stat.h that are more or less broken everywhere, I provide a version that is meant to be ideal for new architectures.

2009-06-11asm-generic: add generic sysv ipc headersArnd Bergmann
The ipc64 data structures were originally meant to be architecture specific so that each architecture could add their own optimizations for padding. In the end, most of them just copied the x86 version, and most got that wrong. UClibc expects the x86 anyway, so we might just declare that the default and get rid of the extra copies.

2009-06-11asm-generic: introduce asm/bitsperlong.hArnd Bergmann
This provides a reliable way for asm-generic/types.h and other files to find out if it is running on a 32 or 64 bit platform. We cannot use CONFIG_64BIT for this in headers that are included from user space because CONFIG symbols are not available there. We also cannot do it inside of asm/types.h because some headers need the word size but cannot include types.h. The solution is to introduce a new header <asm/bitsperlong.h> that defines both __BITS_PER_LONG for user space and BITS_PER_LONG for usage in the kernel. The asm-generic version falls back to 32 bit unless the architecture overrides it, which I did for all 64 bit platforms.

2009-06-11asm-generic: rename termios.h, signal.h and mman.hArnd Bergmann

2009-06-04ptrace: tracehook_report_clone: fix false positivesOleg Nesterov
The "trace || CLONE_PTRACE" check in tracehook_report_clone() is not right, - If the untraced task does clone(CLONE_PTRACE) the new child is not traced, we must not queue SIGSTOP. - If we forked the traced task, but the tracer exits and untraces both the forking task and the new child (after copy_process() drops tasklist_lock), we should not queue SIGSTOP too. Change the code to check task_ptrace() != 0 instead. This is still racy, but the race is harmless. We can race with another tracer attaching to this child, or the tracer can exit and detach in parallel. But giwen that we didn't do wake_up_new_task() yet, the child must have the pending SIGSTOP anyway.

2009-06-04drm: Hook up DPMS property handling in drm_crtc.c. Add ↵Keith Packard
drm_helper_connector_dpms. Making the drm_crtc.c code recognize the DPMS property and invoke the connector->dpms function doesn't remove any capability from the driver while reducing code duplication. That just highlighted the problem with the existing DPMS functions which could turn off the connector, but failed to turn off any relevant crtcs. The new drm_helper_connector_dpms function manages all of that, using the drm_helper-specific crtc and encoder dpms functions, automatically computing the appropriate DPMS level for each object in the system. This fixes the current troubles in the i915 driver which left PLLs, pipes and planes running while in DPMS_OFF mode or even while they were unused.

2009-05-28i7300_idle: allow testing on i5000-series hardware w/o re-compileLen Brown
Testing the i7300_idle driver on i5000-series hardware required an edit to i7300_idle.h to "#define SUPPORT_I5000 1" and a re-build of both i7300_idle and ioat_dma. Replace that build-time scheme with a load-time module parameter: "7300_idle.forceload=1" to make it easier to test the driver on hardware that while not officially validated, works fine and is much more commonly available. By default (no modparam) the driver will continue to load only on the i7300. Note that ioat_dma runs a copy of i7300_idle's probe routine to know to reserve an IOAT channel for i7300_idle. This change makes ioat_dma do that always on the i5000, just like it does on the i7300. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Acked-by: Andrew Henroid <andrew.d.henroid@intel.com>

2009-05-25netfilter: nf_ct_tcp: fix accepting invalid RST segmentsJozsef Kadlecsik
Robert L Mathews discovered that some clients send evil TCP RST segments, which are accepted by netfilter conntrack but discarded by the destination. Thus the conntrack entry is destroyed but the destination retransmits data until timeout. The same technique, i.e. sending properly crafted RST segments, can easily be used to bypass connlimit/connbytes based restrictions (the sample script written by Robert can be found in the netfilter mailing list archives). The patch below adds a new flag and new field to struct ip_ct_tcp_state so that checking RST segments can be made more strict and thus TCP conntrack can catch the invalid ones: the RST segment is accepted only if its sequence number higher than or equal to the highest ack we seen from the other direction. (The last_ack field cannot be reused because it is used to catch resent packets.) Signed-off-by: Jozsef Kadlecsik <kadlec@blackhole.kfki.hu> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

2009-05-19drm/i915: allocate large pointer arrays with vmallocJesse Barnes
For awhile now, many of the GEM code paths have allocated page or object arrays with the slab allocator. This is nice and fast, but won't work well if memory is fragmented, since the slab allocator works with physically contiguous memory (i.e. order > 2 allocations are likely to fail fairly early after booting and doing some work). This patch works around the issue by falling back to vmalloc for >PAGE_SIZE allocations. This is ugly, but much less work than chaining a bunch of pages together by hand (suprisingly there's not a bunch of generic kernel helpers for this yet afaik). vmalloc space is somewhat precious on 32 bit kernels, but our allocations shouldn't be big enough to cause problems, though they're routinely more than a page. Note that this patch doesn't address the unchecked alloc-based-on-ioctl-args in GEM; that needs to be fixed in a separate patch. Also, I've deliberately ignored the DRM's "area" junk. I don't think anyone actually uses it anymore and I'm hoping it gets ripped out soon. [Updated: removed size arg to new free function. We could unify the free functions as well once the DRM mem tracking is ripped out.] fd.o bug #20152 (part 1/3) Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org> Signed-off-by: Eric Anholt <eric@anholt.net>

2009-05-18[ARM] Double check memmap is actually valid with a memmap has unexpected ↵Mel Gorman
holes V2 pfn_valid() is meant to be able to tell if a given PFN has valid memmap associated with it or not. In FLATMEM, it is expected that holes always have valid memmap as long as there is valid PFNs either side of the hole. In SPARSEMEM, it is assumed that a valid section has a memmap for the entire section. However, ARM and maybe other embedded architectures in the future free memmap backing holes to save memory on the assumption the memmap is never used. The page_zone linkages are then broken even though pfn_valid() returns true. A walker of the full memmap must then do this additional check to ensure the memmap they are looking at is sane by making sure the zone and PFN linkages are still valid. This is expensive, but walkers of the full memmap are extremely rare. This was caught before for FLATMEM and hacked around but it hits again for SPARSEMEM because the page_zone linkages can look ok where the PFN linkages are totally screwed. This looks like a hatchet job but the reality is that any clean solution would end up consumning all the memory saved by punching these unexpected holes in the memmap. For example, we tried marking the memmap within the section invalid but the section size exceeds the size of the hole in most cases so pfn_valid() starts returning false where valid memmap exists. Shrinking the size of the section would increase memory consumption offsetting the gains. This patch identifies when an architecture is punching unexpected holes in the memmap that the memory model cannot automatically detect and sets ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL. At the moment, this is restricted to EP93xx which is the model sub-architecture this has been reported on but may expand later. When set, walkers of the full memmap must call memmap_valid_within() for each PFN and passing in what it expects the page and zone to be for that PFN. If it finds the linkages to be broken, it assumes the memmap is invalid for that PFN. Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2009-05-15libata: Media rotation rate and form factor heuristicsMartin K. Petersen
This patch provides new heuristics for parsing both the form factor and media rotation rate ATA IDENFITY words. The reported ATA version must be 7 or greater and the device must return values defined as valid in the standard. Only then are the characteristics reported to SCSI via the VPD B1 page. This seems like a reasonable compromise to me considering that we have been shipping several kernel releases that key off the rotation rate bit without any version checking whatsoever. With no complaints so far. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

The same can happen for iscsi when transitioning from logged in to failed and blocking the sdevs. This patch converts iscsi and fc's transitions back to use DID_IMM_RETRY instead of DID_TRANSPORT_DISRUPTED which has a limited number of retries that we do not want to use for handling this race.

2009-05-15Revert "mm: add /proc controls for pdflush threads"Jens Axboe
This reverts commit fafd688e4c0c34da0f3de909881117d374e4c7af. Work is progressing to switch away from pdflush as the process backing for flushing out dirty data. So it seems pointless to add more knobs to control pdflush threads. The original author of the patch did not have any specific use cases for adding the knobs, so we can easily revert this before 2.6.30 to avoid having to maintain this API forever.

2009-05-14drm/i915: Add new GET_PIPE_FROM_CRTC_ID ioctl.Carl Worth
This allows userlevel code to discover the pipe number corresponding to a given CRTC ID. This is necessary for doing pipe-specific operations such as waiting for vblank on a given CRTC. Failure to use the right pipe mapping can result in GPU hangs, or at least failure to actually sync to vblank.
