2009-06-15ide: don't enable IORDY at a probe timeBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
* Add 'unsigned long port_flags' field to ide_hwif_t. * Add IDE_PFLAG_PROBING port flag and keep it set during probing. * Fix ide_pio_need_iordy() to not enable IORDY at a probe time (IORDY may lead to controller lock up on certain controllers if the port is not occupied). Loosely based on the recent libata's fix by Tejun, thanks to Alan for the hint that IDE may also need it. Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>

2009-06-12PM core: rename suspend and resume functionsAlan Stern
This patch (as1241) renames a bunch of functions in the PM core. Rather than go through a boring list of name changes, suffice it to say that in the end we have a bunch of pairs of functions: device_resume_noirq dpm_resume_noirq device_resume dpm_resume device_complete dpm_complete device_suspend_noirq dpm_suspend_noirq device_suspend dpm_suspend device_prepare dpm_prepare in which device_X does the X operation on a single device and dpm_X invokes device_X for all devices in the dpm_list. In addition, the old dpm_power_up and device_resume_noirq have been combined into a single function (dpm_resume_noirq). Lastly, dpm_suspend_start and dpm_resume_end are the renamed versions of the former top-level device_suspend and device_resume routines.

2009-06-12PM: Rename device_power_down/up()Magnus Damm
Rename the functions performing "_noirq" dev_pm_ops operations from device_power_down() and device_power_up() to device_suspend_noirq() and device_resume_noirq(). The new function names are chosen to show that the functions are responsible for calling the _noirq() versions to finalize the suspend/resume operation. The current function names do not perform power down/up anymore so the names may be misleading. Global function renames: - device_power_down() -> device_suspend_noirq() - device_power_up() -> device_resume_noirq() Static function renames: - suspend_device_noirq() -> __device_suspend_noirq() - resume_device_noirq() -> __device_resume_noirq() Signed-off-by: Magnus Damm <damm@igel.co.jp> Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> Acked-by: Len Brown <lenb@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2009-06-12slab,slub: don't enable interrupts during early bootPekka Enberg
As explained by Benjamin Herrenschmidt: Oh and btw, your patch alone doesn't fix powerpc, because it's missing a whole bunch of GFP_KERNEL's in the arch code... You would have to grep the entire kernel for things that check slab_is_available() and even then you'll be missing some. For example, slab_is_available() didn't always exist, and so in the early days on powerpc, we used a mem_init_done global that is set form mem_init() (not perfect but works in practice). And we still have code using that to do the test. Therefore, mask out __GFP_WAIT, __GFP_IO, and __GFP_FS in the slab allocators in early boot code to avoid enabling interrupts.

2009-06-12lguest: use eventfds for device notificationRusty Russell
Currently, when a Guest wants to perform I/O it calls LHCALL_NOTIFY with an address: the main Launcher process returns with this address, and figures out what device to run. A far nicer model is to let processes bind an eventfd to an address: if we find one, we simply signal the eventfd.

2009-06-12lguest: improve interrupt handling, speed up stream networkingRusty Russell
lguest never checked for pending interrupts when enabling interrupts, and things still worked. However, it makes a significant difference to TCP performance, so it's time we fixed it by introducing a pending_irq flag and checking it on irq_restore and irq_enable. These two routines are now too big to patch into the 8/10 bytes patch space, so we drop that code. Note: The high latency on interrupt delivery had a very curious effect: once everything else was optimized, networking without GSO was faster than networking with GSO, since more interrupts were sent and hence a greater chance of one getting through to the Guest! Note2: (Almost) Closing the same loophole for iret doesn't have any measurable effect, so I'm leaving that patch for the moment. Before: 1GB tcpblast Guest->Host: 30.7 seconds 1GB tcpblast Guest->Host (no GSO): 76.0 seconds After: 1GB tcpblast Guest->Host: 6.8 seconds 1GB tcpblast Guest->Host (no GSO): 27.8 seconds Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2009-06-12virtio: indirect ring entries (VIRTIO_RING_F_INDIRECT_DESC)Mark McLoughlin
Add a new feature flag for indirect ring entries. These are ring entries which point to a table of buffer descriptors. The idea here is to increase the ring capacity by allowing a larger effective ring size whereby the ring size dictates the number of requests that may be outstanding, rather than the size of those requests. This should be most effective in the case of block I/O where we can potentially benefit by concurrently dispatching a large number of large requests. Even in the simple case of single segment block requests, this results in a threefold increase in ring capacity.

2009-06-12perf_counter: Add forward/backward attribute ABI compatibilityPeter Zijlstra
Provide for means of extending the perf_counter_attr in a 'natural' way. We allow growing the structure by appending fields at the end by specifying the full structure size inside it. When a new kernel sees a smaller (old) structure, it will 0 pad the tail. When an old kernel sees a larger (new) structure, it will verify the tail consists of 0s, otherwise fail. If we fail due to a size-mismatch, we return -E2BIG and write the kernel's native attribe size back into the provided structure. Furthermore, add some attribute verification, so that we'll fail counter creation when unknown bits are present (PERF_SAMPLE, PERF_FORMAT, or in the __reserved fields). (This ABI detail is introduced while keeping the existing syscall ABI.)

2009-06-12module: trim exception table on init free.Rusty Russell
It's theoretically possible that there are exception table entries which point into the (freed) init text of modules. These could cause future problems if other modules get loaded into that memory and cause an exception as we'd see the wrong fixup. The only case I know of is kvm-intel.ko (when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n). Amerigo fixed this long-standing FIXME in the x86 version, but this patch is more general. This implements trim_init_extable(); most archs are simple since they use the standard lib/extable.c sort code. Alpha and IA64 use relative addresses in their fixups, so thier trimming is a slight variation. Sparc32 is unique; it doesn't seem to define ARCH_HAS_SORT_EXTABLE, yet it defines its own sort_extable() which overrides the one in lib. It doesn't sort, so we have to mark deleted entries instead of actually trimming them.

__builtin_types_compatible_p Impact: new API __builtin_types_compatible_p() is a little awkward to use: it takes two types rather than types or variables, and it's just damn long. (typeof(type) == type, so this works on types as well as vars). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2009-06-12module_param: split perm field into flags and permRusty Russell
Impact: cleanup Rather than hack KPARAM_KMALLOCED into the perm field, separate it out. Since the perm field was 32 bits and only needs 16, we don't add bloat. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2009-06-12module_param: invbool should take a 'bool', not an 'int'Rusty Russell
It takes an 'int' for historical reasons, and there are only two users: simply switch it over to bool. The other user (uvesafb.c) will get a (harmless-on-x86) warning until the next patch is applied.

2009-06-12memcg: fix page_cgroup fatal error in FLATMEMKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Now, SLAB is configured in very early stage and it can be used in init routine now. But replacing alloc_bootmem() in FLAT/DISCONTIGMEM's page_cgroup() initialization breaks the allocation, now. (Works well in SPARSEMEM case...it supports MEMORY_HOTPLUG and size of page_cgroup is in reasonable size (< 1 << MAX_ORDER.) This patch revive FLATMEM+memory cgroup by using alloc_bootmem. In future, We stop to support FLATMEM (if no users) or rewrite codes for flatmem completely.But this will adds more messy codes and overheads.

2009-06-12drm_calloc_large: check right size, check integer overflow, use GFP_ZEROKristian Høgsberg
Previously we would check size instead of size * nmemb, and so would never hit the vmalloc path. Also add integer overflow check as in kcalloc, and allocate GFP_ZERO pages instead of memset()ing them. Signed-off-by: Kristian Høgsberg <krh@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>

fs-internal parts of qnx4_fs.h taken to fs/qnx4/qnx4.h, includes adjusted, qnx4_fs.h doesn't need unifdef anymore. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2009-06-11Sanitize qnx4 fsync handlingAl Viro
* have directory operations use mark_buffer_dirty_inode(), so that sync_mapping_buffers() would get those. * make qnx4_write_inode() honour its last argument. * get rid of insane copies of very ancient "walk the indirect blocks" in qnx4/fsync - they never matched the actual fs layout and, fortunately, never'd been called. Again, all this junk is not needed; ->fsync() should just do sync_mapping_buffers + sync_inode (and if we implement block allocation for qnx4, we'll need to use mark_buffer_dirty_inode() for extent blocks) Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
