2010-05-17writeback: fix WB_SYNC_NONE writeback from umountJens Axboe5-15/+51
When umount calls sync_filesystem(), we first do a WB_SYNC_NONE writeback to kick off writeback of pending dirty inodes, then follow that up with a WB_SYNC_ALL to wait for it. Since umount already holds the sb s_umount mutex, WB_SYNC_NONE ends up doing nothing and all writeback happens as WB_SYNC_ALL. This can greatly slow down umount, since WB_SYNC_ALL writeback is a data integrity operation and thus a bigger hammer than simple WB_SYNC_NONE. For barrier aware file systems it's a lot slower.

2010-05-17writeback: disable periodic old data writeback for !dirty_writeback_centisecsJens Axboe1-2/+12
Prior to 2.6.32, setting /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs disabled periodic dirty writeback from kupdate. This got broken and now causes excessive sys CPU usage if set to zero, as we'll keep beating on schedule().

2010-05-11block: allow initialization of previously allocated request_queueMike Snitzer3-1/+24
blk_init_queue() allocates the request_queue structure and then initializes it as needed (request_fn, elevator, etc). Split initialization out to blk_init_allocated_queue_node. Introduce blk_init_allocated_queue wrapper function to model existing blk_init_queue and blk_init_queue_node interfaces. Export elv_register_queue to allow a newly added elevator to be registered with sysfs. Export elv_unregister_queue for symmetry. These changes allow DM to initialize a device's request_queue with more precision. In particular, DM no longer unconditionally initializes a full request_queue (elevator et al). It only does so for a request-based DM device. Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

2010-04-29nfs d_revalidate() is too trigger-happy with d_drop()Al Viro1-0/+2
If dentry found stale happens to be a root of disconnected tree, we can't d_drop() it; its d_hash is actually part of s_anon and d_drop() would simply hide it from shrink_dcache_for_umount(), leading to all sorts of fun, including busy inodes on umount and oopsen after that. Bug had been there since at least 2006 (commit c636eb already has it), so it's definitely -stable fodder.

2010-04-28x86/PCI: compute Address Space length rather than using _LENBjorn Helgaas1-38/+2
ACPI _CRS Address Space Descriptors have _MIN, _MAX, and _LEN. Linux has been computing Address Spaces as [_MIN to _MIN + _LEN - 1]. Based on the tests in the bug reports below, Windows apparently uses [_MIN to _MAX]. Per spec (ACPI 4.0, Table 6-40), for _CRS fixed-size, fixed location descriptors, "_LEN must be (_MAX - _MIN + 1)", and when that's true, it doesn't matter which way we compute the end. But of course, there are BIOSes that don't follow this rule, and we're better off if Linux handles those exceptions the same way as Windows. This patch makes Linux use [_MIN to _MAX], as Windows seems to do. This effectively reverts d558b483d5 and 03db42adfe and replaces them with simpler code. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14337 (round) https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15480 (truncate) Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org>

2010-04-28net/usb: add sierra_net.c driverElina Pasheva3-0/+1012
Re-submitted based on comments from netdev community. Summary of the changes: 1. Improved error handling. 2. Added the missing timeout arguments to usb_control_msg(). The following is a new Linux driver which exposes certain models of Sierra Wireless modems to the operating system as Network Interface Cards (NICs). This driver requires a version of the sierra.c driver which supports blacklisting to work properly. The blacklist in sierra.c rejects the interfaces claimed by sierra_net.c. Likewise, the sierra_net.c driver only accepts (i.e. whitelists) the interface(s) used for USB-to-WWAN traffic. The version of sierra.c which supports blacklisting is available from the sierra wireless knowledge base page for older kernels. It is also available in Linux kernel starting from version 2.6.31. This driver works with all Sierra Wireless devices configured with PID=68A3 like USB305, USB306 provided the corresponding firmware version is I2.0 (for USB305) or M3.0 (for USB306) and later. This driver will not work with earlier firmware versions than the ones shown above. In this case the driver will issue an error message indicating incompatibility and will not serve the device's USB-to-WWAN interface. Sierra_net.c sits atop a pre-existing Linux driver called usbnet.c. A series of hook functions are provided in sierra_net.c which are called by usbnet.c in response to a particular condition such as receipt or transmission of a data packet. As such, usbnet.c does most of the work of making a modem appear to the system as a network device and for properly exchanging traffic between the USB subsystem and the Network card interface. Sierra_net.c is concerned with managing the data exchanged between the USB-to-WWAN interface and the upper layers of the operating system.

Autosuspend works until you bring the wwan interface up, then the device does not enter autosuspend anymore. The following patch fixes the problem by setting the .manage_power field in the mbm_info struct to the same as in the cdc_info struct (cdc_manager_power).

2010-04-28keys: the request_key() syscall should link an existing key to the dest keyringDavid Howells1-1/+8
The request_key() system call and request_key_and_link() should make a link from an existing key to the destination keyring (if supplied), not just from a new key to the destination keyring. This can be tested by: ring=`keyctl newring fred @s` keyctl request2 user debug:a a keyctl request user debug:a $ring keyctl list $ring If it says: keyring is empty then it didn't work. If it shows something like: 1 key in keyring: 1070462727: --alswrv 0 0 user: debug:a then it did. request_key() system call is meant to recursively search all your keyrings for the key you desire, and, optionally, if it doesn't exist, call out to userspace to create one for you. If request_key() finds or creates a key, it should, optionally, create a link to that key from the destination keyring specified. Therefore, if, after a successful call to request_key() with a desination keyring specified, you see the destination keyring empty, the code didn't work correctly. If you see the found key in the keyring, then it did - which is what the patch is required for.

2010-04-28gpio: fix pca953x set_type 'scheduling while atomic' bugMarc Zyngier1-1/+13
Bill Gatliff reported the following bug when using the irq_chip facility of the pca953x driver on a PPC platform: BUG: scheduling while atomic: insmod/1530/0x00000002 He traced it back to an i2c transaction in pca953x_irq_set_type(), which can be called with interrupt disabled (from __setup_irq()). As the i2c controller can sleep while sending a message, this qualifies as a bad idea. This patch moves the i2c transaction to pca953x_irq_bus_sync_unlock(), where it is actually safe to send an i2c message.

2010-04-28bnx2: Prevent "scheduling while atomic" warning with cnic, bonding and vlan.Michael Chan1-18/+20
The bonding driver calls ndo_vlan_rx_register() while holding bond->lock. The bnx2 driver calls bnx2_netif_stop() to stop the rx handling while changing the vlgrp. The call also stops the cnic driver which sleeps while the bond->lock is held and cause the warning. This code path only needs to stop the NAPI rx handling while we are changing the vlgrp. Since no reset is going to occur, there is no need to stop cnic in this case. By adding a parameter to bnx2_netif_stop() to skip stopping cnic, we can avoid the warning.

2010-04-28bnx2: Fix lost MSI-X problem on 5709 NICs.Michael Chan1-1/+5
It has been reported that under certain heavy traffic conditions in MSI-X mode, the driver can lose an MSI-X vector causing all packets in the associated rx/tx ring pair to be dropped. The problem is caused by the chip dropping the write to unmask the MSI-X vector by the kernel (when migrating the IRQ for example). This can be prevented by increasing the GRC timeout value for these register read and write operations. Thanks to Dell for helping us debug this problem.
