2006-12-13[PATCH] remove the broken BLK_DEV_SWIM_IOP driverAdrian Bunk4-807/+0
The BLK_DEV_SWIM_IOP driver has: - already been marked as BROKEN in 2.6.0 three years ago and - is still marked as BROKEN. Drivers that had been marked as BROKEN for such a long time seem to be unlikely to be revived in the forseeable future. But if anyone wants to ever revive this driver, the code is still present in the older kernel releases.

activate_mm() is not the right thing to be using in use_mm(). It should be switch_mm(). On normal x86, they're synonymous, but for the Xen patches I'm adding a hook which assumes that activate_mm is only used the first time a new mm is used after creation (I have another hook for dealing with dup_mm). I think this use of activate_mm() is the only place where it could be used a second time on an mm. >From a quick look at the other architectures I think this is OK (most simply implement one in terms of the other), but some are doing some subtly different stuff between the two.

2006-12-13[PATCH] lockdep: fix possible races while disabling lock-debuggingIngo Molnar1-65/+105
Jarek Poplawski noticed that lockdep global state could be accessed in a racy way if one CPU did a lockdep assert (shutting lockdep down), while the other CPU would try to do something that changes its global state. This patch fixes those races and cleans up lockdep's internal locking by adding a graph_lock()/graph_unlock()/debug_locks_off_graph_unlock helpers. (Also note that as we all know the Linux kernel is, by definition, bug-free and perfect, so this code never triggers, so these fixes are highly theoretical. I wrote this patch for aesthetic reasons alone.)

2006-12-13[PATCH] optimize o_direct on block devicesChen, Kenneth W4-28/+178
Implement block device specific .direct_IO method instead of going through generic direct_io_worker for block device. direct_io_worker() is fairly complex because it needs to handle O_DIRECT on file system, where it needs to perform block allocation, hole detection, extents file on write, and tons of other corner cases. The end result is that it takes tons of CPU time to submit an I/O. For block device, the block allocation is much simpler and a tight triple loop can be written to iterate each iovec and each page within the iovec in order to construct/prepare bio structure and then subsequently submit it to the block layer. This significantly speeds up O_D on block device.

2006-12-13[PATCH] PM: Fix SMP races in the freezerRafael J. Wysocki10-13/+30
Currently, to tell a task that it should go to the refrigerator, we set the PF_FREEZE flag for it and send a fake signal to it. Unfortunately there are two SMP-related problems with this approach. First, a task running on another CPU may be updating its flags while the freezer attempts to set PF_FREEZE for it and this may leave the task's flags in an inconsistent state. Second, there is a potential race between freeze_process() and refrigerator() in which freeze_process() running on one CPU is reading a task's PF_FREEZE flag while refrigerator() running on another CPU has just set PF_FROZEN for the same task and attempts to reset PF_FREEZE for it. If the refrigerator wins the race, freeze_process() will state that PF_FREEZE hasn't been set for the task and will set it unnecessarily, so the task will go to the refrigerator once again after it's been thawed. To solve first of these problems we need to stop using PF_FREEZE to tell tasks that they should go to the refrigerator. Instead, we can introduce a special TIF_*** flag and use it for this purpose, since it is allowed to change the other tasks' TIF_*** flags and there are special calls for it. To avoid the freeze_process()-refrigerator() race we can make freeze_process() to always check the task's PF_FROZEN flag after it's read its "freeze" flag. We should also make sure that refrigerator() will always reset the task's "freeze" flag after it's set PF_FROZEN for it. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2006-12-13[PATCH] PM: Fix freezing of stopped tasksRafael J. Wysocki2-7/+9
Currently, if a task is stopped (ie. it's in the TASK_STOPPED state), it is considered by the freezer as unfreezeable. However, there may be a race between the freezer and the delivery of the continuation signal to the task resulting in the task running after we have finished freezing the other tasks. This, in turn, may lead to undesirable effects up to and including data corruption. To prevent this from happening we first need to make the freezer consider stopped tasks as freezeable. For this purpose we need to make freezeable() stop returning 0 for these tasks and we need to force them to enter the refrigerator. However, if there's no continuation signal in the meantime, the stopped tasks should remain stopped after all processes have been thawed, so we need to send an additional SIGSTOP to each of them before waking it up. Also, a stopped task that has just been woken up should first check if there's a freezing request for it and go to the refrigerator if that's the case. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2006-12-13[PATCH] SLAB: use a multiply instead of a divide in obj_to_index()Eric Dumazet4-4/+57
When some objects are allocated by one CPU but freed by another CPU we can consume lot of cycles doing divides in obj_to_index(). (Typical load on a dual processor machine where network interrupts are handled by one particular CPU (allocating skbufs), and the other CPU is running the application (consuming and freeing skbufs)) Here on one production server (dual-core AMD Opteron 285), I noticed this divide took 1.20 % of CPU_CLK_UNHALTED events in kernel. But Opteron are quite modern cpus and the divide is much more expensive on oldest architectures : On a 200 MHz sparcv9 machine, the division takes 64 cycles instead of 1 cycle for a multiply. Doing some math, we can use a reciprocal multiplication instead of a divide. If we want to compute V = (A / B) (A and B being u32 quantities) we can instead use : V = ((u64)A * RECIPROCAL(B)) >> 32 ; where RECIPROCAL(B) is precalculated to ((1LL << 32) + (B - 1)) / B Note : I wrote pure C code for clarity. gcc output for i386 is not optimal but acceptable : mull 0x14(%ebx) mov %edx,%eax // part of the >> 32 xor %edx,%edx // useless mov %eax,(%esp) // could be avoided mov %edx,0x4(%esp) // useless mov (%esp),%ebx [akpm@osdl.org: small cleanups] Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Cc: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-12-13[PATCH] cpuset: rework cpuset_zone_allowed apiPaul Jackson7-28/+92
Elaborate the API for calling cpuset_zone_allowed(), so that users have to explicitly choose between the two variants: cpuset_zone_allowed_hardwall() cpuset_zone_allowed_softwall() Until now, whether or not you got the hardwall flavor depended solely on whether or not you or'd in the __GFP_HARDWALL gfp flag to the gfp_mask argument. If you didn't specify __GFP_HARDWALL, you implicitly got the softwall version. Unfortunately, this meant that users would end up with the softwall version without thinking about it. Since only the softwall version might sleep, this led to bugs with possible sleeping in interrupt context on more than one occassion. The hardwall version requires that the current tasks mems_allowed allows the node of the specified zone (or that you're in interrupt or that __GFP_THISNODE is set or that you're on a one cpuset system.) The softwall version, depending on the gfp_mask, might allow a node if it was allowed in the nearest enclusing cpuset marked mem_exclusive (which requires taking the cpuset lock 'callback_mutex' to evaluate.) This patch removes the cpuset_zone_allowed() call, and forces the caller to explicitly choose between the hardwall and the softwall case. If the caller wants the gfp_mask to determine this choice, they should (1) be sure they can sleep or that __GFP_HARDWALL is set, and (2) invoke the cpuset_zone_allowed_softwall() routine. This adds another 100 or 200 bytes to the kernel text space, due to the few lines of nearly duplicate code at the top of both cpuset_zone_allowed_* routines. It should save a few instructions executed for the calls that turned into calls of cpuset_zone_allowed_hardwall, thanks to not having to set (before the call) then check (within the call) the __GFP_HARDWALL flag. For the most critical call, from get_page_from_freelist(), the same instructions are executed as before -- the old cpuset_zone_allowed() routine it used to call is the same code as the cpuset_zone_allowed_softwall() routine that it calls now. Not a perfect win, but seems worth it, to reduce this chance of hitting a sleeping with irq off complaint again.

See http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-mm&m=116469577431008&w=2 This patch cleans up the slab header definitions. We define the common functions of slob and slab in slab.h and put the extra definitions needed for slab's kmalloc implementations in <linux/slab_def.h>. In order to get a greater set of common functions we add several empty functions to slob.c and also rename slob's kmalloc to __kmalloc. Slob does not need any special definitions since we introduce a fallback case. If there is no need for a slab implementation to provide its own kmalloc mess^H^H^Hacros then we simply fall back to __kmalloc functions. That is sufficient for SLOB. Sort the function in slab.h according to their functionality. First the functions operating on struct kmem_cache * then the kmalloc related functions followed by special debug and fallback definitions. Also redo a lot of comments.

2006-12-13[PATCH] cciss: remove calls to pci_disable_deviceMike Miller1-6/+13
Remove calls to pci_disable_device except in fail_all_cmds. The pci_disable_device function does something nasty to Smart Array controllers that pci_enable_device does not undo. So if the driver is unloaded it cannot be reloaded. Also, customers can disable any pci device via the ROM Based Setup Utility (RBSU). If the customer has disabled the controller we should not try to blindly enable the card from the driver. Please consider this for inclusion.

2006-12-13[PATCH] cciss: map out more memory for config tableMike Miller1-1/+1
Map out more memory for our config table. It's required to reach offset 0x214 to disable DMA on the P600. I'm not sure how I lost this hunk. Please consider this for inclusion.

2006-12-13[PATCH] sx: fix non-PCI buildJiri Slaby2-1/+9
When CONFIG_PCI is not defined (i.e. PCI bus is disabled), the sx driver fails to link, since some pci functions are not available. Fix this behaviour to be able to compile this driver on machines with no PCI bus (but with ISA bus support).
