Pull locking and atomic updates from Ingo Molnar: "Main changes in this cycle are: - Extend atomic primitives with coherent logic op primitives (atomic_{or,and,xor}()) and deprecate the old partial APIs (atomic_{set,clear}_mask()) The old ops were incoherent with incompatible signatures across architectures and with incomplete support. Now every architecture supports the primitives consistently (by Peter Zijlstra) - Generic support for 'relaxed atomics': - _acquire/release/relaxed() flavours of xchg(), cmpxchg() and {add,sub}_return() - atomic_read_acquire() - atomic_set_release() This came out of porting qwrlock code to arm64 (by Will Deacon) - Clean up the fragile static_key APIs that were causing repeat bugs, by introducing a new one: DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_TRUE(name); DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE(name); which define a key of different types with an initial true/false value. Then allow: static_branch_likely() static_branch_unlikely() to take a key of either type and emit the right instruction for the case. To be able to know the 'type' of the static key we encode it in the jump entry (by Peter Zijlstra) - Static key self-tests (by Jason Baron) - qrwlock optimizations (by Waiman Long) - small futex enhancements (by Davidlohr Bueso) - ... and misc other changes" * 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (63 commits) jump_label/x86: Work around asm build bug on older/backported GCCs locking, ARM, atomics: Define our SMP atomics in terms of _relaxed() operations locking, include/llist: Use linux/atomic.h instead of asm/cmpxchg.h locking/qrwlock: Make use of _{acquire|release|relaxed}() atomics locking/qrwlock: Implement queue_write_unlock() using smp_store_release() locking/lockref: Remove homebrew cmpxchg64_relaxed() macro definition locking, asm-generic: Add _{relaxed|acquire|release}() variants for 'atomic_long_t' locking, asm-generic: Rework atomic-long.h to avoid bulk code duplication locking/atomics: Add _{acquire|release|relaxed}() variants of some atomic operations locking, compiler.h: Cast away attributes in the WRITE_ONCE() magic locking/static_keys: Make verify_keys() static jump label, locking/static_keys: Update docs locking/static_keys: Provide a selftest jump_label: Provide a self-test s390/uaccess, locking/static_keys: employ static_branch_likely() x86, tsc, locking/static_keys: Employ static_branch_likely() locking/static_keys: Add selftest locking/static_keys: Add a new static_key interface locking/static_keys: Rework update logic locking/static_keys: Add static_key_{en,dis}able() helpers ...

scsi: Do not set cmd_per_lun to 1 in the host template

2015-06-01T01:06:28+00:00

'0' is now used as the default cmd_per_lun value, so there's no need to explicitly set it to '1' in the host template. Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

mm, mempool: do not allow atomic resizing

2015-04-14T23:49:06+00:00

Allocating a large number of elements in atomic context could quickly deplete memory reserves, so just disallow atomic resizing entirely. Nothing currently uses mempool_resize() with anything other than GFP_KERNEL, so convert existing callers to drop the gfp_mask.

scsi: drop reason argument from ->change_queue_depth

2014-11-24T13:45:27+00:00

Drop the now unused reason argument from the ->change_queue_depth method. Also add a return value to scsi_adjust_queue_depth, and rename it to scsi_change_queue_depth now that it can be used as the default ->change_queue_depth implementation.

scsi: avoid ->change_queue_depth indirection for queue full tracking

2014-11-24T13:45:12+00:00

All drivers use the implementation for ramping the queue up and down, so instead of overloading the change_queue_depth method call the implementation diretly if the driver opts into it by setting the track_queue_depth flag in the host template. Note that a few drivers validated the new queue depth in their change_queue_depth method, but as we never go over the queue depth set during slave_configure or the sysfs file this isn't nessecary and can safely be removed.

zfcp: auto port scan resiliency

2014-11-20T08:11:30+00:00

This patch improves the Fibre Channel port scan behaviour of the zfcp lldd. Without it the zfcp device driver may churn up the storage area network by excessive scanning and scan bursts, particularly in big virtual server environments, potentially resulting in interference of virtual servers and reduced availability of storage connectivity. The two main issues as to the zfcp device drivers automatic port scan in virtual server environments are frequency and simultaneity. On the one hand, there is no point in allowing lots of ports scans in a row. It makes sense, though, to make sure that a scan is conducted eventually if there has been any indication for potential SAN changes. On the other hand, lots of virtual servers receiving the same indication for a SAN change had better not attempt to conduct a scan instantly, that is, at the same time. Hence this patch has a two-fold approach for better port scanning: the introduction of a rate limit to amend frequency issues, and the introduction of a short random backoff to amend simultaneity issues. Both approaches boil down to deferred port scans, with delays comprising parts for both approaches. The new port scan behaviour is summarised best by: NEW: NEW: no_auto_port_rescan random rate flush backoff limit =wait adapter resume/thaw yes yes no yes* adapter online (user) no yes no yes* port rescan (user) no no no yes adapter recovery (user) yes yes yes no adapter recovery (other) yes yes yes no incoming ELS yes yes yes no incoming ELS lost yes yes yes no Implementation is straight-forward by converting an existing worker to a delayed worker. But care is needed whenever that worker is going to be flushed (in order to make sure work has been completed), since a flush operation cancels the timer set up for deferred execution (see * above). There is a small race window whenever a port scan work starts running up to the point in time of storing the time stamp for that port scan. The impact is negligible. Closing that gap isn't trivial, though, and would the destroy the beauty of a simple work-to-delayed-work conversion.

zfcp: bring back unit sysfs attributes for automatic LUN scan

2014-11-20T08:11:29+00:00

Through sysfs attributes, zfcp unit objects provide a trigger for manual LUN recovery and export information for problem determination. With commit f8210e34887e1feb977a9b6b8caa086855af40c9 "[SCSI] zfcp: Allow midlayer to scan for LUNs when running in NPIV mode" and when attaching SCSI devices through this new optional method, no more zfcp unit objects are allocated for such SCSI devices. Hence, the above-mentioned trigger and information were missing. The information and context is located in SCSI transport device data since b62a8d9b45b971a67a0f8413338c230e3117dff5 "[SCSI] zfcp: Use SCSI device data zfcp_scsi_dev instead of zfcp_unit" 57c237731b92fadc7d44824276313ec330b1989b "[SCSI] zfcp: Add zfcp private struct as SCSI device driver data" Hence, introduce the trigger and the information unconditionally for all SCSI devices attached through zfcp. We prefix the attribute names with 'zfcp_' to prevent collisions and to avoid mix-ups such as with the common 'state' attribute. Since some of the new attribute views do not need zfcp_port in the ZFCP_DEFINE_SCSI_ATTR helper macro, remove zfcp_port to avoid compiler warnings on unused variable. It's easy to open code the conversion from zfcp_scsi_dev to zfcp_port for the two already existing attributes hba_id and wwpn.

zfcp: remove access control tables interface (port leftovers)

2014-11-20T08:11:28+00:00

This patch removes some leftovers for commit 663e0890e31cb85f0cca5ac1faaee0d2d52880b5 "[SCSI] zfcp: remove access control tables interface". The "access denied" case for ports is gone, as well. The corresponding flag was cleared, but never set. So clean it up. Sysfs flag is kept, though, for backward-compatibility. Now it returns always 0.
