pci_disable_device(pdev) used to be in pci remove function. But this
PCI device has two functions with interrupt lines connected to a
single pin. The other one is a USB host controller. So when we disable
the PIN there e.g. by rmmod hpilo, the controller stops working. It is
because the interrupt link is disabled in ACPI since it is not
refcounted yet. See acpi_pci_link_free_irq called from
acpi_pci_irq_disable.
It is not the best solution whatsoever, but as a workaround until the
ACPI irq link refcounting is sorted out this should fix the reported
errors.

tty_port_tty_get() can return NULL after port hangup that may happen anytime.
The patch adds checks that tty_port_tty_get() returns nonNULL around places
where tty is actually used.
I have no actual hardware to test the patch, so I have updated rx side
processing from common sense only.
v2: rx handling updated according Alan Cox feedback.

Commit 002176db (misc: at25: Parse dt settings) added device tree
bindings the differ significantly in style from the I2C EEPROM
bindings and don't seem well vetted. Here I deprecate (but still
support) the "at25,*" properties, and add what I hope is a better
alternative. These new bindings also happen to be deployed in the
field and were previously submitted for consideration here:
https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/devicetree-discuss/2012-May/015556.html
The advantages of the new bindings are that they are similar to the
I2C EEPROMs and they don't conflate read-only and the address width
modes in a binary encoded blob.

So we've had a fair few reports of fbcon handover breakage between
efi/vesafb and i915 surface recently, so I dedicated a couple of
days to finding the problem.
Essentially the last thing we saw was the conflicting framebuffer
message and that was all.
So after much tracing with direct netconsole writes (printks
under console_lock not so useful), I think I found the race.
Thread A (driver load) Thread B (timer thread)
unbind_con_driver -> |
bind_con_driver -> |
vc->vc_sw->con_deinit -> |
fbcon_deinit -> |
console_lock() |
| |
| fbcon_flashcursor timer fires
| console_lock() <- blocked for A
|
|
fbcon_del_cursor_timer ->
del_timer_sync
(BOOM)
Of course because all of this is under the console lock,
we never see anything, also since we also just unbound the active
console guess what we never see anything.
Hopefully this fixes the problem for anyone seeing vesafb->kms
driver handoff.
v1.1: add comment suggestion from Alan.

Jim Schutt reported a problem that pointed at compaction contending
heavily on locks. The workload is straight-forward and in his own words;
The systems in question have 24 SAS drives spread across 3 HBAs,
running 24 Ceph OSD instances, one per drive. FWIW these servers
are dual-socket Intel 5675 Xeons w/48 GB memory. I've got ~160
Ceph Linux clients doing dd simultaneously to a Ceph file system
backed by 12 of these servers.
Early in the test everything looks fine

There was other data but primarily it is all showing that compaction is
contended heavily on the zone->lock and zone->lru_lock.
commit [b2eef8c0: mm: compaction: minimise the time IRQs are disabled
while isolating pages for migration] noted that it was possible for
migration to hold the lru_lock for an excessive amount of time. 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.

Commit 7db8889ab05b ("mm: have order > 0 compaction start off where it
left") introduced a caching mechanism to reduce the amount work the free
page scanner does in compaction. However, it has a problem. Consider
two process simultaneously scanning free pages
C
Process A M S F
|---------------------------------------|
Process B M FS
C is zone->compact_cached_free_pfn
S is cc->start_pfree_pfn
M is cc->migrate_pfn
F is cc->free_pfn
In this diagram, Process A has just reached its migrate scanner, wrapped
around and updated compact_cached_free_pfn accordingly.
Simultaneously, Process B finishes isolating in a block and updates
compact_cached_free_pfn again to the location of its free scanner.
Process A moves to "end_of_zone - one_pageblock" and runs this check
if (cc->order > 0 && (!cc->wrapped ||
zone->compact_cached_free_pfn >
cc->start_free_pfn))
pfn = min(pfn, zone->compact_cached_free_pfn);
compact_cached_free_pfn is above where it started so the free scanner
skips almost the entire space it should have scanned. When there are
multiple processes compacting it can end in a situation where the entire
zone is not being scanned at all. Further, it is possible for two
processes to ping-pong update to compact_cached_free_pfn which is just
random.
Overall, the end result wrecks allocation success rates.
There is not an obvious way around this problem without introducing new
locking and state so this patch takes a different approach.
First, it gets rid of the skip logic because it's not clear that it
matters if two free scanners happen to be in the same block but with
racing updates it's too easy for it to skip over blocks it should not.
Second, it updates compact_cached_free_pfn in a more limited set of
circumstances.
If a scanner has wrapped, it updates compact_cached_free_pfn to the end
of the zone. When a wrapped scanner isolates a page, it updates
compact_cached_free_pfn to point to the highest pageblock it
can isolate pages from.
If a scanner has not wrapped when it has finished isolated pages it
checks if compact_cached_free_pfn is pointing to the end of the
zone. If so, the value is updated to point to the highest
pageblock that pages were isolated from. This value will not
be updated again until a free page scanner wraps and resets
compact_cached_free_pfn.
This is not optimal and it can still race but the compact_cached_free_pfn
will be pointing to or very near a pageblock with free pages.

Make sure that there is no doorbell messages left behind due to disabled
interrupts during inbound doorbell processing.
The most common case for this bug is loss of rionet JOIN messages in
systems with three or more rionet participants and MSI or MSI-X enabled.
As result, requests for packet transfers may finish with "destination
unreachable" error message.

Correct the offset by subtracting 20 from tm_hour before taking the
modulo 12.
[ "Why 20?" I hear you ask. Or at least I did.
Here's the reason why: RS5C348_BIT_PM is 32, and is - stupidly -
included in the RS5C348_HOURS_MASK define. So it's really subtracting
out that bit to get "hour+12". But then because it does things modulo
12, it needs to add the 12 in again afterwards anyway.
This code is confused. It would be much clearer if RS5C348_HOURS_MASK
just didn't include the RS5C348_BIT_PM bit at all, then it wouldn't
need to do the silly subtract either.
Whatever. It's all just math, the end result is the same. - Linus ]

Commit cfd19c5a9ecf ("mm: only set page->pfmemalloc when
ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS was used") tried to narrow down page->pfmemalloc
setting, but it missed some places the pfmemalloc should be set.
So, in __slab_alloc, the unalignment pfmemalloc and ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS
cause incorrect deactivate_slab() on our core2 server:
64.73% fio [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock
|
--- _raw_spin_lock
|
|---0.34%-- deactivate_slab
| __slab_alloc
| kmem_cache_alloc
| |
That causes our fio sync write performance to have a 40% regression.
Move the checking in get_page_from_freelist() which resolves this issue.

Commit aff622495c9a ("vmscan: only defer compaction for failed order and

compact_order_failed in __compact_pgdat(). So it can't update
compact_order_failed with the new order. This ends up preventing
correct operation of policy deferral. This patch fixes it.

resources
On many of our larger systems, CPU 0 has had all of its IRQ resources
consumed before XPC loads. Worst cases on machines with multiple 10
GigE cards and multiple IB cards have depleted the entire first socket
of IRQs.
This patch makes selecting the node upon which IRQs are allocated (as
well as all the other GRU Message Queue structures) specifiable as a
module load param and has a default behavior of searching all nodes/cpus
for an available resources.
