2006-06-09[PATCH] elevator switching raceJens Axboe1-1/+1
There's a race between shutting down one io scheduler and firing up the next, in which a new io could enter and cause the io scheduler to be invoked with bad or NULL data. To fix this, we need to maintain the queue lock for a bit longer. Unfortunately we cannot do that, since the elevator init requires to be run without the lock held. This isn't easily fixable, without also changing the mempool API. So split the initialization into two parts, and alloc-init operation and an attach operation. Then we can preallocate the io scheduler and related structures, and run the attach inside the lock after we detach the old one. This patch has survived 30 minutes of 1 second io scheduler switching with a very busy io load. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-05-21[PATCH] Align the node_mem_map endpoints to a MAX_ORDER boundaryBob Picco1-0/+1
Andy added code to buddy allocator which does not require the zone's endpoints to be aligned to MAX_ORDER. An issue is that the buddy allocator requires the node_mem_map's endpoints to be MAX_ORDER aligned. Otherwise __page_find_buddy could compute a buddy not in node_mem_map for partial MAX_ORDER regions at zone's endpoints. page_is_buddy will detect that these pages at endpoints are not PG_buddy (they were zeroed out by bootmem allocator and not part of zone). Of course the negative here is we could waste a little memory but the positive is eliminating all the old checks for zone boundary conditions. SPARSEMEM won't encounter this issue because of MAX_ORDER size constraint when SPARSEMEM is configured. ia64 VIRTUAL_MEM_MAP doesn't need the logic either because the holes and endpoints are handled differently. This leaves checking alloc_remap and other arches which privately allocate for node_mem_map.

2006-05-17[PATCH] SPI: per-transfer overrides for wordsize and clockingImre Deak2-0/+14
Some protocols (like one for some bitmap displays) require different clock speed or word size settings for each transfer in an SPI message. This adds those parameters to struct spi_transfer. They are to be used when they are nonzero; otherwise the defaults from spi_device are to be used. The patch also adds a setup_transfer callback to spi_bitbang, uses it for messages that use those overrides, and implements it so that the pure bitbanging code can help resolve any questions about how it should work.

2006-05-15[PATCH] fix can_share_swap_page() when !CONFIG_SWAPHua Zhong1-1/+1
can_share_swap_page() is used to check if the page has the last reference. This avoids allocating a new page for COW if it's the last page. However, if CONFIG_SWAP is not set, can_share_swap_page() is defined as 0, thus always causes a copy for the last COW page. The below simple patch fixes it.

This deadlocks the kernel of course. This patch changes symbol_put_addr() to not acquire the modlist_lock, it doesn't need it since it never looks at the module list directly. Also, it now uses core_kernel_text() instead of kernel_text_address(). The latter has an additional check for addr inside a module, but we don't need to do that since we call module_text_address() (the same function kernel_text_address uses) ourselves.

With this, driver should be pretty stable as tested among both platform-device-driven and "old way" boards. Also added missing GPL statement , and updated year field on existing ones to reflect code update.

2006-05-02[MMC] extend data timeout for writesRussell King1-0/+1
The CSD contains a "read2write factor" which determines the multiplier to be applied to the read timeout to obtain the write timeout. We were ignoring this parameter, resulting in the possibility for writes being timed out too early. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2006-05-02[PATCH] vmsplice: restrict stealing a little moreJens Axboe1-0/+1
Apply the same rules as the anon pipe pages, only allow stealing if no one else is using the page. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
2006-05-02[PATCH] splice: fix page LRU accountingJens Axboe1-3/+2
Currently we rely on the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_LRU flag being set correctly to know whether we need to fiddle with page LRU state after stealing it, however for some origins we just don't know if the page is on the LRU list or not. So remove PIPE_BUF_FLAG_LRU and do this check/add manually in pipe_to_file() instead. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

2006-05-02[NETFILTER] x_tables: fix compat related crash on non-x86Patrick McHardy1-0/+8
When iptables userspace adds an ipt_standard_target, it calculates the size of the entire entry as: sizeof(struct ipt_entry) + XT_ALIGN(sizeof(struct ipt_standard_target)) ipt_standard_target looks like this: struct xt_standard_target { struct xt_entry_target target; int verdict; }; xt_entry_target contains a pointer, so when compiled for 64 bit the structure gets an extra 4 byte of padding at the end. On 32 bit architectures where iptables aligns to 8 byte it will also have 4 byte padding at the end because it is only 36 bytes large. The compat_ipt_standard_fn in the kernel adjusts the offsets by sizeof(struct ipt_standard_target) - sizeof(struct compat_ipt_standard_target), which will always result in 4, even if the structure from userspace was already padded to a multiple of 8. On x86 this works out by accident because userspace only aligns to 4, on all other architectures this is broken and causes incorrect adjustments to the size and following offsets.

2006-05-01[PATCH] vmsplice: allow user to pass in gift pagesJens Axboe1-0/+2
If SPLICE_F_GIFT is set, the user is basically giving this pages away to the kernel. That means we can steal them for eg page cache uses instead of copying it. The data must be properly page aligned and also a multiple of the page size in length. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
2006-05-01[PATCH] pipe: enable atomic copying of pipe data to/from user spaceJens Axboe1-5/+6
The pipe ->map() method uses kmap() to virtually map the pages, which is both slow and has known scalability issues on SMP. This patch enables atomic copying of pipe pages, by pre-faulting data and using kmap_atomic() instead. lmbench bw_pipe and lat_pipe measurements agree this is a Good Thing. Here are results from that on a UP machine with highmem (1.5GiB of RAM), running first a UP kernel, SMP kernel, and SMP kernel patched.
