2011-02-11block: skip elevator data initialization for flush requestsMike Snitzer1-4/+25
Skip elevator initialization for flush requests by passing priv=0 to blk_alloc_request() in get_request(). As such elv_set_request() is never called for flush requests. Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>
2011-01-25block: reimplement FLUSH/FUA to support mergeTejun Heo6-156/+332
The current FLUSH/FUA support has evolved from the implementation which had to perform queue draining. As such, sequencing is done queue-wide one flush request after another. However, with the draining requirement gone, there's no reason to keep the queue-wide sequential approach. This patch reimplements FLUSH/FUA support such that each FLUSH/FUA request is sequenced individually. The actual FLUSH execution is double buffered and whenever a request wants to execute one for either PRE or POSTFLUSH, it queues on the pending queue. Once certain conditions are met, a flush request is issued and on its completion all pending requests proceed to the next sequence. This allows arbitrary merging of different type of flushes. How they are merged can be primarily controlled and tuned by adjusting the above said 'conditions' used to determine when to issue the next flush. This is inspired by Darrick's patches to merge multiple zero-data flushes which helps workloads with highly concurrent fsync requests. * As flush requests are never put on the IO scheduler, request fields used for flush share space with rq->rb_node. rq->completion_data is moved out of the union. This increases the request size by one pointer. As rq->elevator_private* are used only by the iosched too, it is possible to reduce the request size further. However, to do that, we need to modify request allocation path such that iosched data is not allocated for flush requests. * FLUSH/FUA processing happens on insertion now instead of dispatch. - Comments updated as per Vivek and Mike.

2011-01-25block: improve flush bio completionTejun Heo1-27/+21
bio's for flush are completed twice - once during the data phase and one more time after the whole sequence is complete. The first completion shouldn't notify completion to the issuer. This was achieved by skipping all bio completion steps in req_bio_endio() for the first completion; however, this has two drawbacks. * Error is not recorded in bio and must be tracked somewhere else. * Partial completion is not supported. Both don't cause problems for the current users; however, they make further improvements difficult. Change req_bio_endio() such that it only skips the actual notification part for the first completion. bio completion is implemented with partial completions on mind anyway so this is as simple as moving the REQ_FLUSH_SEQ conditional such that only calling of bio_endio() is skipped.

2011-01-25block: add REQ_FLUSH_SEQTejun Heo4-3/+6
rq == &q->flush_rq was used to determine whether a rq is part of a flush sequence, which worked because all requests in a flush sequence were sequenced using the single dedicated request. This is about to change, so introduce REQ_FLUSH_SEQ flag to distinguish flush sequence requests. This patch doesn't cause any behavior change.

2011-01-04ipv4/route.c: respect prefsrc for local routesJoel Sing1-2/+6
The preferred source address is currently ignored for local routes, which results in all local connections having a src address that is the same as the local dst address. Fix this by respecting the preferred source address when it is provided for local routes. This bug can be demonstrated as follows: # ifconfig dummy0 192.168.0.1 # ip route show table local | grep local.*dummy0 local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0 proto kernel scope host src 192.168.0.1 # ip route change table local local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0 \ proto kernel scope host src 127.0.0.1 # ip route show table local | grep local.*dummy0 local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0 proto kernel scope host src 127.0.0.1 We now establish a local connection and verify the source IP address selection: # nc -l 192.168.0.1 3128 & # nc 192.168.0.1 3128 & # netstat -ant | grep 192.168.0.1:3128.*EST tcp 0 0 192.168.0.1:3128 192.168.0.1:33228 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 0 192.168.0.1:33228 192.168.0.1:3128 ESTABLISHED Signed-off-by: Joel Sing <jsing@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-01-03ima: fix add LSM rule bugMimi Zohar1-0/+2
If security_filter_rule_init() doesn't return a rule, then not everything is as fine as the return code implies. This bug only occurs when the LSM (eg. SELinux) is disabled at runtime. Adding an empty LSM rule causes ima_match_rules() to always succeed, ignoring any remaining rules. default IMA TCB policy: # PROC_SUPER_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x9fa0 # SYSFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x62656572 # DEBUGFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x64626720 # TMPFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x01021994 # SECURITYFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x73636673 < LSM specific rule > dont_measure obj_type=var_log_t measure func=BPRM_CHECK measure func=FILE_MMAP mask=MAY_EXEC measure func=FILE_CHECK mask=MAY_READ uid=0 Thus without the patch, with the boot parameters 'tcb selinux=0', adding the above 'dont_measure obj_type=var_log_t' rule to the default IMA TCB measurement policy, would result in nothing being measured. The patch prevents the default TCB policy from being replaced.

commit bf9ae5386bca8836c16e69ab8fdbe46767d7452a (llc: use dev_hard_header) removed the skb_reset_mac_header call from llc_mac_hdr_init. This seems fine itself, but br_send_bpdu() invokes ebtables LOCAL_OUT. We oops in ebt_basic_match() because it assumes eth_hdr(skb) returns a meaningful result.

2011-01-03atl1: fix oops when changing tx/rx ring paramsJ. K. Cliburn1-0/+10
Commit 3f5a2a713aad28480d86b0add00c68484b54febc zeroes out the statistics message block (SMB) and coalescing message block (CMB) when adapter ring resources are freed. This is desirable behavior, but, as a side effect, the commit leads to an oops when atl1_set_ringparam() attempts to alter the number of rx or tx elements in the ring buffer (by using ethtool -G, for example). We don't want SMB or CMB to change during this operation. Modify atl1_set_ringparam() to preserve SMB and CMB when changing ring parameters.

2011-01-03ARM: pxa: fix page table corruption on resumeAric D. Blumer1-2/+2
Before this patch, the following error would sometimes occur after a resume on pxa3xx: /path/to/mm/memory.c:144: bad pmd 8040542e. The problem was that a temporary page table mapping was being improperly restored. The PXA3xx resume code creates a temporary mapping of resume_turn_on_mmu to avoid a prefetch abort. The pxa3xx_resume_after_mmu code requires that the r1 register holding the address of this mapping not be modified, however, resume_turn_on_mmu does modify it. It is mostly correct in that r1 receives the base table address, but it may also get other bits in 13:0. This results in pxa3xx_resume_after_mmu restoring the original mapping to the wrong place, corrupting memory and leaving the temporary mapping in place.

2011-01-03perf: Fix callchain hit bad cast on ascii displayFrederic Weisbecker1-1/+1
ipchain__fprintf_graph() casts the number of hits in a branch as an int, which means we lose its highests bits. This results in meaningless number of callchain hits in perf.data that have a high number of hits recorded, typically those that have callchain branches hits appearing more than INT_MAX. This happens easily as those are pondered by the event period.

2010-12-30Revert "Staging: zram: work around oops due to startup ordering snafu"Nitin Gupta1-6/+0
This reverts commit 7e24cce38a99f373450db67bf576fe73e8168d66 because it was never appropriate for mainline. Do not check for init flag before starting I/O - zram module is unusable without this fix. The oops mentioned in the reverted commit message was actually a problem only with the zram version as present in project's own repository where we allocate struct zram_stats_cpu upon device initialization. OTOH, In mainline/staging version of zram, we allocate struct stats upfront, so this oops cannot happen in mainline version. Checking for init_done flag in zram_make_request() results in a *no-op* for any I/O operation since we simply always return success. This flag is actually set when the first write occurs on a zram disk which triggers its initialization.

At __mem_cgroup_try_charge(), VM_BUG_ON(!mm->owner) is checked. But as commented in mem_cgroup_from_task(), mm->owner can be NULL in some racy case. This check of VM_BUG_ON() is bad. A possible story to hit this is at swapoff()->try_to_unuse(). It passes mm_struct to mem_cgroup_try_charge_swapin() while mm->owner is NULL. If we can't get proper mem_cgroup from swap_cgroup information, mm->owner is used as charge target and we see NULL.
