2012-01-13module_param: check type correctness for module_param_arrayRusty Russell5-5/+8
module_param_array(), unlike its non-array cousins, didn't check the type of the variable. Fixing this found two bugs.

2012-01-13modules: sysfs - export: taint, coresize, initsizeKay Sievers2-29/+80
Recent tools do not want to use /proc to retrieve module information. A few values are currently missing from sysfs to replace the information available in /proc/modules. This adds /sys/module/*/{coresize,initsize,taint} attributes. TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE (P) and TAINT_OOT_MODULE (O) flags are both always shown now, and do no longer exclude each other, also in /proc/modules. Replace the open-coded sysfs attribute initializers with the __ATTR() macro. Add the new attributes to Documentation/ABI.

2012-01-13module: Fix performance regression on modules with large symbol tablesKevin Cernekee1-44/+21
Looking at /proc/kallsyms, one starts to ponder whether all of the extra strtab-related complexity in module.c is worth the memory savings. Instead of making the add_kallsyms() loop even more complex, I tried the other route of deleting the strmap logic and naively copying each string into core_strtab with no consideration for consolidating duplicates. Performance on an "already exists" insmod of nvidia.ko (runs add_kallsyms() but does not actually initialize the module): Original scheme: 1.230s With naive copying: 0.058s Extra space used: 35k (of a 408k module).

2012-01-12brcmsmac: fix reading of PCI sprom contentsLinus Torvalds1-11/+20
It appears that you can only read the sprom contents with aligned 16-bit reads: anything else causes at least some versions of the broadcom chipset to abort the PCI transaction, returning 0xff. This apparently doesn't trigger very often, because most setups don't use an external srom chip, and the OTP sprom loading doesn't have this issue. But at least the current 11" Macbook Air does trigger it, and wireless communications were broken as a result.

2012-01-12virtio: balloon: Add freeze, restore handlers to support S4Amit Shah1-0/+47
Handling balloon hibernate / restore is tricky. If the balloon was inflated before going into the hibernation state, upon resume, the host will not have any memory of that. Any pages that were passed on to the host earlier would most likely be invalid, and the host will have to re-balloon to the previous value to get in the pre-hibernate state. So the only sane thing for the guest to do here is to discard all the pages that were put in the balloon. When to discard the pages is the next question. One solution is to deflate the balloon just before writing the image to the disk (in the freeze() PM callback). However, asking for pages from the host just to discard them immediately after seems wasteful of resources. Hence, it makes sense to do this by just fudging our counters soon after wakeup. This means we don't deflate the balloon before sleep, and also don't put unnecessary pressure on the host. This also helps in the thaw case: if the freeze fails for whatever reason, the balloon should continue to remain in the inflated state. This was tested by issuing 'swapoff -a' and trying to go into the S4 state. That fails, and the balloon stays inflated, as expected. Both the host and the guest are happy. Finally, in the restore() callback, we empty the list of pages that were previously given off to the host, add the appropriate number of pages to the totalram_pages counter, reset the num_pages counter to 0, and all is fine. As a last step, delete the vqs on the freeze callback to prepare for hibernation, and re-create them in the restore and thaw callbacks to resume normal operation. The kthread doesn't race with any operations here, since it's frozen before the freeze() call and is thawed after the thaw() and restore() callbacks, so we're safe with that.

It will then cause the config work to run during or after reset. Two problems with this: - if this runs after device is gone we will get use after free - access of config while reset is in progress is racy (as layout is changing).

2012-01-12virtio: expose added descriptors immediately.Rusty Russell1-6/+14

This means we don't need a memory barrier in virtqueue_add_buf(), but it reduces concurrency as the device (ie. host) can't see the buffers until the kick. In the unusual (but now possible) case where a driver does add_buf() and get_buf() without doing a kick, we do need to insert one before our counter wraps. Otherwise we could wrap num_added, and later on not realize that we have passed the marker where we should have kicked. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

We were cheating with our barriers; using the smp ones rather than the real device ones. That was fine, until rpmsg came along, which is used to talk to a real device (a non-SMP CPU). Unfortunately, just putting back the real barriers (reverting d57ed95d) causes a performance regression on virtio-pci. In particular, Amos reports netbench's TCP_RR over virtio_net CPU utilization increased up to 35% while throughput went down by up to 14%. By comparison, this branch is in the noise.
