2007-11-13[NET]: Move unneeded data to initdata section.Denis V. Lunev
This patch reverts Eric's commit 2b008b0a8e96b726c603c5e1a5a7a509b5f61e35 It diets .text & .data section of the kernel if CONFIG_NET_NS is not set. This is safe after list operations cleanup. Signed-of-by: Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2007-11-13[POWERPC] Avoid unpaired stwcx. on some processorsBecky Bruce
The context switch code in the kernel issues a dummy stwcx. to clear the reservation, as recommended by the architecture. However, some processors can have issues if this stwcx to address A occurs while the reservation is already held to a different address B. To avoid this problem, the dummy stwcx. needs to be paired with a dummy lwarx to the same address. This adds the dummy lwarx, and creates a cpu feature bit to indicate which cpus are affected. Tested on mpc8641_hpcn_defconfig in arch/powerpc; build tested in arch/ppc. Signed-off-by: Becky Bruce <becky.bruce@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

...and fix a couple of bugs in the NBD, CIFS and OCFS2 socket handlers. Looking at the sock->op->shutdown() handlers, it looks as if all of them take a SHUT_RD/SHUT_WR/SHUT_RDWR argument instead of the RCV_SHUTDOWN/SEND_SHUTDOWN arguments.

2007-11-12x86: fix taking DNA during 64bit sigreturnSiddha, Suresh B
restore sigcontext is taking a DNA exception while restoring FP context from the user stack, during the sigreturn. Appended patch fixes it by doing clts() if the app doesn't touch FP during the signal handler execution. This will stop generating a DNA, during the fxrstor in the sigreturn. This improves 64-bit lat_sig numbers by ~30% on my core2 platform. Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2007-11-12virtio: Force use of power-of-two for descriptor ring sizesRusty Russell
The virtio descriptor rings of size N-1 were nicely set up to be aligned to an N-byte boundary. But as Anthony Liguori points out, the free-running indices used by virtio require that the sizes be a power of 2, otherwise we get problems on wrap (demonstrated with lguest). So we replace the clever "2^n-1" scheme with a simple "align to page boundary" scheme: this means that all virtio rings take at least two pages, but it's safer than guessing cache alignment.

2007-11-12virtio: fix vring_init for 64 bitsAnthony Liguori
This patch fixes a typo in vring_init(). This happens to work today in lguest because the sizeof(struct vring_desc) is 16 and struct vring contains 3 pointers and an unsigned int so on 32-bit sizeof(struct vring_desc) == sizeof(struct vring). However, this is no longer true on 64-bit where the bug is exposed. Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2007-11-10[NET]: Fix skb_truesize_check() assertionChuck Lever
The intent of the assertion in skb_truesize_check() is to check for skb->truesize being decremented too much by other code, resulting in a wraparound below zero. The type of the right side of the comparison causes the compiler to promote the left side to an unsigned type, despite the presence of an explicit type cast. This defeats the check for negativity.

2007-11-09sched: restore deterministic CPU accounting on powerpcPaul Mackerras
Since powerpc started using CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, the deterministic CPU accounting (CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING) has been broken on powerpc, because we end up counting user time twice: once in timer_interrupt() and once in update_process_times(). This fixes the problem by pulling the code in update_process_times that updates utime and stime into a separate function called account_process_tick. If CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is not defined, there is a version of account_process_tick in kernel/timer.c that simply accounts a whole tick to either utime or stime as before. If CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is defined, then arch code gets to implement account_process_tick. This also lets us simplify the s390 code a bit; it means that the s390 timer interrupt can now call update_process_times even when CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is turned on, and can just implement a suitable account_process_tick(). account_process_tick() now takes the task_struct * as an argument. Tested both with and without CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

For kernel addresses between TASK_SIZE and PAGE_OFFSET, flush_tlb_kern_range() does not work as would be expected. The TLB invalidate works with a matching ASID, or on entries marked as global. The set_pte_at() macro marks addresses >= PAGE_OFFSET as global, but not addresses from TASK_SIZE to PAGE_OFFSET, which are also kernel addresses. The result is that the entries in this range are not actually invalidated by flush_tlb_kern_range(). This patch instead marks addresses >= TASK_SIZE as global.

2007-11-08[POWERPC] Fix off-by-one error in setting decrementer on Book E/4xx (v2)Paul Mackerras
The decrementer in Book E and 4xx processors interrupts on the transition from 1 to 0, rather than on the 0 to -1 transition as on 64-bit server and 32-bit "classic" (6xx/7xx/7xxx) processors. At the moment we subtract 1 from the count of how many decrementer ticks are required before the next interrupt before putting it into the decrementer, which is correct for server/classic processors, but could possibly cause the interrupt to happen too early on Book E and 4xx if the timebase/decrementer frequency is low. This fixes the problem by making set_dec subtract 1 from the count for server and classic processors, instead of having the callers subtract 1. Since set_dec already had a bunch of ifdefs to handle different processor types, there is no net increase in ugliness. :) Note that calling set_dec(0) may not generate an interrupt on some processors. To make sure that decrementer_set_next_event always calls set_dec with an interval of at least 1 tick, we set min_delta_ns of the decrementer_clockevent to correspond to 2 ticks (2 rather than 1 to compensate for truncations in the conversions between ticks and ns). This also removes a redundant call to set the decrementer to 0x7fffffff - it was already set to that earlier in timer_interrupt. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
