2012-09-18vfs: dcache: use DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED instead of DCACHE_DISCONNECTED in d_kill()Miklos Szeredi1-0/+2
IBM reported a soft lockup after applying the fix for the rename_lock deadlock. Commit c83ce989cb5f ("VFS: Fix the nfs sillyrename regression in kernel 2.6.38") was found to be the culprit. The nfs sillyrename fix used DCACHE_DISCONNECTED to indicate that the dentry was killed. This flag can be set on non-killed dentries too, which results in infinite retries when trying to traverse the dentry tree. This patch introduces a separate flag: DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED, which is only set in d_kill() and makes try_to_ascend() test only this flag. IBM reported successful test results with this patch.

2012-09-18mm/ia64: fix a memory block size bugJianguo Wu1-1/+1
I found following definition in include/linux/memory.h, in my IA64 platform, SECTION_SIZE_BITS is equal to 32, and MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE will be 0. #define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE (1 << SECTION_SIZE_BITS) Because MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE is int type and length of 32bits, so MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE(1 << 32) will will equal to 0. Actually when SECTION_SIZE_BITS >= 31, MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE will be wrong. This will cause wrong system memory infomation in sysfs. I think it should be: #define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE (1UL << SECTION_SIZE_BITS) And "echo offline > memory0/state" will cause following call trace: kernel BUG at mm/memory_hotplug.c:885! sh[6455]: bugcheck! 0 [1] Pid: 6455, CPU 0, comm: sh psr : 0000101008526030 ifs : 8000000000000fa4 ip : [<a0000001008c40f0>] Not tainted (3.6.0-rc1) ip is at offline_pages+0x210/0xee0 Call Trace: show_stack+0x80/0xa0 show_regs+0x640/0x920 die+0x190/0x2c0 die_if_kernel+0x50/0x80 ia64_bad_break+0x3d0/0x6e0 ia64_native_leave_kernel+0x0/0x270 offline_pages+0x210/0xee0 alloc_pages_current+0x180/0x2a0 Signed-off-by: Jianguo Wu <wujianguo@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Jiang Liu <jiang.liu@huawei.com> Cc: "Luck, Tony" <tony.luck@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2012-09-16Revert "sched: Improve scalability via 'CPU buddies', which withstand random ↵Linus Torvalds1-1/+0
perturbations" This reverts commit 970e178985cadbca660feb02f4d2ee3a09f7fdda. Nikolay Ulyanitsky reported thatthe 3.6-rc5 kernel has a 15-20% performance drop on PostgreSQL 9.2 on his machine (running "pgbench"). Borislav Petkov was able to reproduce this, and bisected it to this commit 970e178985ca ("sched: Improve scalability via 'CPU buddies' ...") apparently because the new single-idle-buddy model simply doesn't find idle CPU's to reschedule on aggressively enough. Mike Galbraith suspects that it is likely due to the user-mode spinlocks in PostgreSQL not reacting well to preemption, but we don't really know the details - I'll just revert the commit for now. There are hopefully other approaches to improve scheduler scalability without it causing these kinds of downsides.

2012-09-16mfd: core: Push irqdomain mapping out into devicesMark Brown1-1/+3
Currently the MFD core supports remapping MFD cell interrupts using an irqdomain but only if the MFD is being instantiated using device tree and only if the device tree bindings use the pattern of registering IPs in the device tree with compatible properties. This will be actively harmful for drivers which support non-DT platforms and use this pattern for their DT bindings as it will mean that the core will silently change remapping behaviour and it is also limiting for drivers which don't do DT with this particular pattern. There is also a potential fragility if there are interrupts not associated with MFD cells and all the cells are omitted from the device tree for some reason. Instead change the code to take an IRQ domain as an optional argument, allowing drivers to take the decision about the parent domain for their interrupts. The one current user of this feature is ab8500-core, it has the domain lookup pushed out into the driver.

2012-09-12i2c: pnx: Fix read transactions of >= 2 bytesRoland Stigge1-0/+1
On transactions with n>=2 bytes, the controller actually wrongly clocks in n+1 bytes. This is caused by the (wrong) assumption that RFE in the Status Register is 1 iff there is no byte already ordered (via a dummy TX byte). This lead to the implementation of synchronized byte ordering, e.g.: Dummy-TX - RX - Dummy-TX - RX - ... But since RFE actually stays high after some Dummy-TX, it rather looks like: Dummy-TX - Dummy-TX - RX - Dummy-TX - RX - (RX) The last RX byte is clocked in by the bus controller, but ignored by the kernel when filling the userspace buffer. This patch fixes the issue by asking for RX via Dummy-TX asynchronously. Introducing a separate counter for TX bytes.

Commit 43cedbf0e8dfb9c5610eb7985d5f21263e313802 (SUNRPC: Ensure that we grab the XPRT_LOCK before calling xprt_alloc_slot) is causing hangs in the case of NFS over UDP mounts. Since neither the UDP or the RDMA transport mechanism use dynamic slot allocation, we can skip grabbing the socket lock for those transports. Add a new rpc_xprt_op to allow switching between the TCP and UDP/RDMA case. Note that the NFSv4.1 back channel assigns the slot directly through rpc_run_bc_task, so we can ignore that case.

I had a hard time trying to disable it anyway ;-) The problem this time is lots of code assuming that a call to add_uevent_var() will guarantee that env->buflen > 0. This is not true if CONFIG_HOTPLUG is unset. So things like this end up overwriting env->envp_idx because the array index is -1: if (add_uevent_var(env, "MODALIAS=")) return -ENOMEM; len = input_print_modalias(&env->buf[env->buflen - 1], sizeof(env->buf) - env->buflen, dev, 0); Don't know what the best action is, given that there seem to be a *lot* of this around the kernel. This patch "fixes" the problem for me, but I don't know if it can be considered an appropriate fix.

2012-09-06NFSv4: Fix buffer overflow checking in __nfs4_get_acl_uncachedTrond Myklebust1-1/+1
Pass the checks made by decode_getacl back to __nfs4_get_acl_uncached so that it knows if the acl has been truncated. The current overflow checking is broken, resulting in Oopses on user-triggered nfs4_getfacl calls, and is opaque to the point where several attempts at fixing it have failed. This patch tries to clean up the code in addition to fixing the Oopses by ensuring that the overflow checks are performed in a single place (decode_getacl). If the overflow check failed, we will still be able to report the acl length, but at least we will no longer attempt to cache the acl or copy the truncated contents to user space.

2012-09-04NFS: Fix the initialisation of the readdir 'cookieverf' arrayTrond Myklebust1-5/+0
When the NFS_COOKIEVERF helper macro was converted into a static inline function in commit 99fadcd764 (nfs: convert NFS_*(inode) helpers to static inline), we broke the initialisation of the readdir cookies, since that depended on doing a memset with an argument of 'sizeof(NFS_COOKIEVERF(inode))' which therefore changed from sizeof(be32 cookieverf[2]) to sizeof(be32 *). At this point, NFS_COOKIEVERF seems to be more of an obfuscation than a helper, so the best thing would be to just get rid of it.

2012-09-02linux/kernel.h: Fix DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST to support negative dividendsGuenter Roeck1-2/+10
DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST returns a bad result for negative dividends: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(-2, 2) = 0 Most of the time this does not matter. However, in the hardware monitoring subsystem, DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST is sometimes used on integers which can be negative (such as temperatures).

2012-09-01time: Move ktime_t overflow checking into timespec_valid_strictJohn Stultz1-0/+7
Andreas Bombe reported that the added ktime_t overflow checking added to timespec_valid in commit 4e8b14526ca7 ("time: Improve sanity checking of timekeeping inputs") was causing problems with X.org because it caused timeouts larger then KTIME_T to be invalid. Previously, these large timeouts would be clamped to KTIME_MAX and would never expire, which is valid. This patch splits the ktime_t overflow checking into a new timespec_valid_strict function, and converts the timekeeping codes internal checking to use this more strict function.

The new omap4 cpuidle implementation currently requires ARCH_NEEDS_CPU_IDLE_COUPLED, which only works on SMP. This patch makes it possible to build a non-SMP kernel for that platform. This is not normally desired for end-users but can be useful for testing. Without this patch, building rand-0y2jSKT results in: drivers/cpuidle/coupled.c: In function 'cpuidle_coupled_poke': drivers/cpuidle/coupled.c:317:3: error: implicit declaration of function '__smp_call_function_single' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] It's not clear if this patch is the best solution for the problem at hand.

2012-08-22mfd: Move tps65217 regulator plat data handling to regulatorAnilKumar Ch1-3/+9
Regulator platform data handling was mistakenly added to MFD driver. So we will see build errors if we compile MFD drivers without CONFIG_REGULATOR. This patch moves regulator platform data handling from TPS65217 MFD driver to regulator driver. This makes MFD driver independent of REGULATOR framework so build error is fixed if CONFIG_REGULATOR is not set. drivers/built-in.o: In function `tps65217_probe': tps65217.c:(.devinit.text+0x13e37): undefined reference to `of_regulator_match' This patch also fix allocation size of tps65217 platform data. Current implementation allocates a struct tps65217_board for each regulator specified in the device tree. But the structure itself provides array of regulators so one instance of it is sufficient.

Very broadly speaking this patch expands the concept. This patch introduces compact_checklock_irqsave() to check if a lock is contended or the process needs to be scheduled. If either condition is true then async compaction is aborted and the caller is informed. The page allocator will fail a THP allocation if compaction failed due to contention. This patch also introduces compact_trylock_irqsave() which will acquire the lock only if it is not contended and the process does not need to schedule.

2012-08-20af_packet: don't emit packet on orig fanout groupEric Leblond1-0/+2
If a packet is emitted on one socket in one group of fanout sockets, it is transmitted again. It is thus read again on one of the sockets of the fanout group. This result in a loop for software which generate packets when receiving one. This retransmission is not the intended behavior: a fanout group must behave like a single socket. The packet should not be transmitted on a socket if it originates from a socket belonging to the same fanout group. This patch fixes the issue by changing the transmission check to take fanout group info account.

2012-08-20dt: introduce for_each_available_child_of_node, of_get_next_available_childTimur Tabi1-0/+7
Macro for_each_child_of_node() makes it easy to iterate over all of the children for a given device tree node, including those nodes that are marked as unavailable (i.e. status = "disabled"). Introduce for_each_available_child_of_node(), which is like for_each_child_of_node(), but it automatically skips unavailable nodes. This also requires the introduction of helper function of_get_next_available_child(), which returns the next available child node.
