2011-05-26mm: cleancache core ops functions and configDan Magenheimer4-0/+390
This third patch of eight in this cleancache series provides the core code for cleancache that interfaces between the hooks in VFS and individual filesystems and a cleancache backend. It also includes build and config patches. Two new files are added: mm/cleancache.c and include/linux/cleancache.h. Note that CONFIG_CLEANCACHE can default to on; in systems that do not provide a cleancache backend, all hooks devolve to a simple check of a global enable flag, so performance impact should be negligible but can be reduced to zero impact if config'ed off. However for this first commit, it defaults to off.

2011-05-26fs: add field to superblock to support cleancacheDan Magenheimer1-0/+5
This second patch of eight in this cleancache series adds a field to the generic superblock to squirrel away a pool identifier that is dynamically provided by cleancache-enabled filesystems at mount time to uniquely identify files and pages belonging to this mounted filesystem.

2011-05-26mm/fs: cleancache documentationDan Magenheimer2-0/+289
This patchset introduces cleancache, an optional new feature exposed by the VFS layer that potentially dramatically increases page cache effectiveness for many workloads in many environments at a negligible cost. It does this by providing an interface to transcendent memory, which is memory/storage that is not otherwise visible to and/or directly addressable by the kernel. Instead of being discarded, hooks in the reclaim code "put" clean pages to cleancache. Filesystems that "opt-in" may "get" pages from cleancache that were previously put, but pages in cleancache are "ephemeral", meaning they may disappear at any time. And the size of cleancache is entirely dynamic and unknowable to the kernel. Filesystems currently supported by this patchset include ext3, ext4, btrfs, and ocfs2. Other filesystems (especially those built entirely on VFS) should be easy to add, but should first be thoroughly tested to ensure coherency. Details and a FAQ are provided in Documentation/vm/cleancache.txt This first patch of eight in this cleancache series only adds two new documentation files.

2011-05-18drivercore: revert addition of of_match to struct deviceGrant Likely22-50/+108
Commit b826291c, "drivercore/dt: add a match table pointer to struct device" added an of_match pointer to struct device to cache the of_match_table entry discovered at driver match time. This was unsafe because matching is not an atomic operation with probing a driver. If two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get overwritten. This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to call of_match_device() directly instead. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>

If two drivers are probing devices at the same time, both will write their match table result to the dev->of_match cache at the same time. Only write the result if the device matches. In a thread titled "SBus devices sometimes detected, sometimes not", Meelis reported his SBus hme was not detected about 50% of the time. From the debug suggested by Grant it was obvious another driver matched some devices between the call to match the hme and the hme discovery failling.

2011-05-18configfs: Fix race between configfs_readdir() and configfs_d_iput()Joel Becker1-5/+28
configfs_readdir() will use the existing inode numbers of inodes in the dcache, but it makes them up for attribute files that aren't currently instantiated. There is a race where a closing attribute file can be tearing down at the same time as configfs_readdir() is trying to get its inode number. We want to get the inode number of open attribute files, because they should match while instantiated. We can't lock down the transition where dentry->d_inode is set to NULL, so we just check for NULL there. We can, however, ensure that an inode we find isn't iput() in configfs_d_iput() until after we've accessed it. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <jlbec@evilplan.org>
2011-05-18configfs: Don't try to d_delete() negative dentries.Joel Becker1-2/+4
When configfs is faking mkdir() on its subsystem or default group objects, it starts by adding a negative dentry. It then tries to instantiate the group. If that should fail, it must clean up after itself. I was using d_delete() here, but configfs_attach_group() promises to return an empty dentry on error. d_delete() explodes with the entry dentry. Let's try d_drop() instead. The unhashing is what we want for our dentry. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <jlbec@evilplan.org>
2011-05-18block: don't delay blk_run_queue_asyncShaohua Li1-1/+3
Let's check a scenario: 1. blk_delay_queue(q, SCSI_QUEUE_DELAY); 2. blk_run_queue_async(); the second one will became a noop, because q->delay_work already has WORK_STRUCT_PENDING_BIT set, so the delayed work will still run after SCSI_QUEUE_DELAY. But blk_run_queue_async actually hopes the delayed work runs immediately. Fix this by doing a cancel on potentially pending delayed work before queuing an immediate run of the workqueue.

2011-05-18um: fix abortRichard Weinberger1-1/+22
os_dump_core() uses abort() to terminate UML in case of an fatal error. glibc's abort() calls raise(SIGABRT) which makes use of tgkill(). tgkill() has no effect within UML's kernel threads because they are not pthreads. As fallback abort() executes an invalid instruction to terminate the process. Therefore UML gets killed by SIGSEGV and leaves a ugly log entry in the host's kernel ring buffer. To get rid of this we use our own abort routine.

2011-05-17scsi: remove performance regression due to async queue runJens Axboe3-4/+19
Commit c21e6beb removed our queue request_fn re-enter protection, and defaulted to always running the queues from kblockd to be safe. This was a known potential slow down, but should be safe. Unfortunately this is causing big performance regressions for some, so we need to improve this logic. Looking into the details of the re-enter, the real issue is on requeue of requests. Requeue of requests upon seeing a BUSY condition from the device ends up re-running the queue, causing traces like this: scsi_request_fn() scsi_dispatch_cmd() scsi_queue_insert() __scsi_queue_insert() scsi_run_queue() scsi_request_fn() ... potentially causing the issue we want to avoid. So special case the requeue re-run of the queue, but improve it to offload the entire run of local queue and starved queue from a single workqueue callback. This is a lot better than potentially kicking off a workqueue run for each device seen. This also fixes the issue of the local device going into recursion, since the above mentioned commit never moved that queue run out of line. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

After that commit, pci_hotplug_io_size is changed to additional_io_size from minium size. So it will not go through resource_size(res) != 0 path, and will not be reset. The root cause is: pci_bridge_check_ranges will set RESOURCE_IO flag for pci bridge, and later if children do not need IO resource. those bridge resources will not need to be allocated. but flags is still there. that will confuse the the pci_enable_bridges later. related code: static void assign_requested_resources_sorted(struct resource_list *head, struct resource_list_x *fail_head) { struct resource *res; struct resource_list *list; int idx; for (list = head->next; list; list = list->next) { res = list->res; idx = res - &list->dev->resource[0]; if (resource_size(res) && pci_assign_resource(list->dev, idx)) { ... reset_resource(res); } } } At last, We have to clear the flags in pbus_size_mem/io when requested size == 0 and !add_head. becasue this case it will not go through adjust_resources_sorted(). Just make size1 = size0 when !add_head. it will make flags get cleared. At the same time when requested size == 0, add_size != 0, will still have in head and add_list. because we do not clear the flags for it. After this, we will get right result: pci 0000:c0:03.0: PCI bridge to [bus c4-c9] pci 0000:c0:03.0: bridge window [io disabled] pci 0000:c0:03.0: bridge window [mem 0xf0000000-0xf00fffff] pci 0000:c0:03.0: bridge window [mem 0xfc180000000-0xfc197ffffff 64bit pref] pci 0000:c0:03.0: enabling bus mastering pci 0000:c0:03.0: setting latency timer to 64 pcieport 0000:c0:03.0: setting latency timer to 64 pcieport 0000:c0:03.0: irq 160 for MSI/MSI-X pcieport 0000:c0:03.0: Signaling PME through PCIe PME interrupt pci 0000:c4:00.0: Signaling PME through PCIe PME interrupt pcie_pme 0000:c0:03.0:pcie01: service driver pcie_pme loaded aer 0000:c0:03.0:pcie02: service driver aer loaded pciehp 0000:c0:03.0:pcie04: Hotplug Controller: v3: more simple fix. also fix one typo in pbus_size_mem Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Ram Pai <linuxram@us.ibm.com> Cc: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org> Cc: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2011-05-16tick: Clear broadcast active bit when switching to oneshotThomas Gleixner1-1/+11
The first cpu which switches from periodic to oneshot mode switches also the broadcast device into oneshot mode. The broadcast device serves as a backup for per cpu timers which stop in deeper C-states. To avoid starvation of the cpus which might be in idle and depend on broadcast mode it marks the other cpus as broadcast active and sets the brodcast expiry value of those cpus to the next tick. The oneshot mode broadcast bit for the other cpus is sticky and gets only cleared when those cpus exit idle. If a cpu was not idle while the bit got set in consequence the bit prevents that the broadcast device is armed on behalf of that cpu when it enters idle for the first time after it switched to oneshot mode. In most cases that goes unnoticed as one of the other cpus has usually a timer pending which keeps the broadcast device armed with a short timeout. Now if the only cpu which has a short timer active has the bit set then the broadcast device will not be armed on behalf of that cpu and will fire way after the expected timer expiry. In the case of Christians bug report it took ~145 seconds which is about half of the wrap around time of HPET (the limit for that device) due to the fact that all other cpus had no timers armed which expired before the 145 seconds timeframe. The solution is simply to clear the broadcast active bit unconditionally when a cpu switches to oneshot mode after the first cpu switched the broadcast device over. It's not idle at that point otherwise it would not be executing that code. [ I fundamentally hate that broadcast crap. Why the heck thought some folks that when going into deep idle it's a brilliant concept to switch off the last device which brings the cpu back from that state? ] Thanks to Christian for providing all the valuable debug information!

2011-05-16vmxnet3: Fix inconsistent LRO state after initializationThomas Jarosch1-0/+3
During initialization of vmxnet3, the state of LRO gets out of sync with netdev->features. This leads to very poor TCP performance in a IP forwarding setup and is hitting many VMware users. Simplified call sequence: 1. vmxnet3_declare_features() initializes "adapter->lro" to true. 2. The kernel automatically disables LRO if IP forwarding is enabled, so vmxnet3_set_flags() gets called. This also updates netdev->features. 3. Now vmxnet3_setup_driver_shared() is called. "adapter->lro" is still set to true and LRO gets enabled again, even though netdev->features shows it's disabled. Fix it by updating "adapter->lro", too. The private vmxnet3 adapter flags are scheduled for removal in net-next, see commit a0d2730c9571aeba793cb5d3009094ee1d8fda35 "net: vmxnet3: convert to hw_features".

2011-05-16blk-throttle: Use task_subsys_state() to determine a task's blkio_cgroupVivek Goyal4-11/+19
Currentlly we first map the task to cgroup and then cgroup to blkio_cgroup. There is a more direct way to get to blkio_cgroup from task using task_subsys_state(). Use that. The real reason for the fix is that it also avoids a race in generic cgroup code. During remount/umount rebind_subsystems() is called and it can do following with and rcu protection. cgrp->subsys[i] = NULL; That means if somebody got hold of cgroup under rcu and then it tried to do cgroup->subsys[] to get to blkio_cgroup, it would get NULL which is wrong. I was running into this race condition with ltp running on a upstream derived kernel and that lead to crash. So ideally we should also fix cgroup generic code to wait for rcu grace period before setting pointer to NULL. Li Zefan is not very keen on introducing synchronize_wait() as he thinks it will slow down moun/remount/umount operations. So for the time being atleast fix the kernel crash by taking a more direct route to blkio_cgroup. One tester had reported a crash while running LTP on a derived kernel and with this fix crash is no more seen while the test has been running for over 6 days.

2011-05-16x86, apic: Fix spurious error interrupts triggering on all non-boot APsYouquan Song2-5/+8
This patch fixes a bug reported by a customer, who found that many unreasonable error interrupts reported on all non-boot CPUs (APs) during the system boot stage. According to Chapter 10 of Intel Software Developer Manual Volume 3A, Local APIC may signal an illegal vector error when an LVT entry is set as an illegal vector value (0~15) under FIXED delivery mode (bits 8-11 is 0), regardless of whether the mask bit is set or an interrupt actually happen. These errors are seen as error interrupts. The initial value of thermal LVT entries on all APs always reads 0x10000 because APs are woken up by BSP issuing INIT-SIPI-SIPI sequence to them and LVT registers are reset to 0s except for the mask bits which are set to 1s when APs receive INIT IPI. When the BIOS takes over the thermal throttling interrupt, the LVT thermal deliver mode should be SMI and it is required from the kernel to keep AP's LVT thermal monitoring register programmed as such as well. This issue happens when BIOS does not take over thermal throttling interrupt, AP's LVT thermal monitor register will be restored to 0x10000 which means vector 0 and fixed deliver mode, so all APs will signal illegal vector error interrupts. This patch check if interrupt delivery mode is not fixed mode before restoring AP's LVT thermal monitor register.
