We cannot use rcu_dereference_bh safely in netpoll_rx as we may be called with IRQs disabled. We could however simply disable IRQs as that too causes BH to be disabled and is safe in either case.

2010-09-15tcp: Prevent overzealous packetization by SWS logic.Alexey Kuznetsov1-2/+16
If peer uses tiny MSS (say, 75 bytes) and similarly tiny advertised window, the SWS logic will packetize to half the MSS unnecessarily. This causes problems with some embedded devices. However for large MSS devices we do want to half-MSS packetize otherwise we never get enough packets into the pipe for things like fast retransmit and recovery to work. Be careful also to handle the case where MSS > window, otherwise we'll never send until the probe timer. Reported-by: ツ Leandro Melo de Sales <leandroal@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-09-15compat: Make compat_alloc_user_space() incorporate the access_ok()H. Peter Anvin1-0/+3
compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call access_ok() to verify the returned area. A missing call could introduce problems on some architectures. This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length. The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the implementation of the new global function. This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either fail or access userspace on all architectures. This should be followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space() for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers can also be removed.

2010-09-10mm: page allocator: calculate a better estimate of NR_FREE_PAGES when memory ↵Christoph Lameter2-0/+35
is low and kswapd is awake Ordinarily watermark checks are based on the vmstat NR_FREE_PAGES as it is cheaper than scanning a number of lists. To avoid synchronization overhead, counter deltas are maintained on a per-cpu basis and drained both periodically and when the delta is above a threshold. On large CPU systems, the difference between the estimated and real value of NR_FREE_PAGES can be very high. If NR_FREE_PAGES is much higher than number of real free page in buddy, the VM can allocate pages below min watermark, at worst reducing the real number of pages to zero. Even if the OOM killer kills some victim for freeing memory, it may not free memory if the exit path requires a new page resulting in livelock. This patch introduces a zone_page_state_snapshot() function (courtesy of Christoph) that takes a slightly more accurate view of an arbitrary vmstat counter. It is used to read NR_FREE_PAGES while kswapd is awake to avoid the watermark being accidentally broken. The estimate is not perfect and may result in cache line bounces but is expected to be lighter than the IPI calls necessary to continually drain the per-cpu counters while kswapd is awake.

2010-09-10swap: discard while swapping only if SWAP_FLAG_DISCARDHugh Dickins1-1/+2
Tests with recent firmware on Intel X25-M 80GB and OCZ Vertex 60GB SSDs show a shift since I last tested in December: in part because of firmware updates, in part because of the necessary move from barriers to awaiting completion at the block layer. While discard at swapon still shows as slightly beneficial on both, discarding 1MB swap cluster when allocating is now disadvanteous: adds 25% overhead on Intel, adds 230% on OCZ (YMMV). Surrender: discard as presently implemented is more hindrance than help for swap; but might prove useful on other devices, or with improvements. So continue to do the discard at swapon, but make discard while swapping conditional on a SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD to sys_swapon() (which has been using only the lower 16 bits of int flags). We can add a --discard or -d to swapon(8), and a "discard" to swap in /etc/fstab: matching the mount option for btrfs, ext4, fat, gfs2, nilfs2.

2010-09-10swap: revert special hibernation allocationHugh Dickins1-7/+1
Please revert 2.6.36-rc commit d2997b1042ec150616c1963b5e5e919ffd0b0ebf "hibernation: freeze swap at hibernation". It complicated matters by adding a second swap allocation path, just for hibernation; without in any way fixing the issue that it was intended to address - page reclaim after fixing the hibernation image might free swap from a page already imaged as swapcache, letting its swap be reallocated to store a different page of the image: resulting in data corruption if the imaged page were freed as clean then swapped back in. Pages freed to si->swap_map were still in danger of being reallocated by the alternative allocation path. I guess it inadvertently fixed slow SSD swap allocation for hibernation, as reported by Nigel Cunningham: by missing out the discards that occur on the usual swap allocation path; but that was unintentional, and needs a separate fix.

2010-09-10gpio: sx150x: correct and refine reset-on-probe behaviorGregory Bean1-0/+4
Replace the arbitrary software-reset call from the device-probe method, because: - It is defective. To work correctly, it should be two byte writes, not a single word write. As it stands, it does nothing. - Some devices with sx150x expanders installed have their NRESET pins ganged on the same line, so resetting one causes the others to reset - not a nice thing to do arbitrarily! - The probe, usually taking place at boot, implies a recent hard-reset, so a software reset at this point is just a waste of energy anyway. Therefore, make it optional, defaulting to off, as this will match the common case of probing at powerup and also matches the current broken no-op behavior.

2010-09-10mm: fix swapin race conditionAndrea Arcangeli1-11/+9
The pte_same check is reliable only if the swap entry remains pinned (by the page lock on swapcache). We've also to ensure the swapcache isn't removed before we take the lock as try_to_free_swap won't care about the page pin. One of the possible impacts of this patch is that a KSM-shared page can point to the anon_vma of another process, which could exit before the page is freed. This can leave a page with a pointer to a recycled anon_vma object, or worse, a pointer to something that is no longer an anon_vma.

This patch adds a more generic cgroup_attach_task_all() API that allows both the source task and to-be-moved task to be specified. cgroup_attach_task_current_cg() becomes a specialization of the more generic new function.

2010-09-09dquot: do full inode dirty in allocating spaceShaohua Li1-2/+8
Alex Shi found a regression when doing ffsb test. The test has several threads, and each thread creates a small file, write to it and then delete it. ffsb reports about 20% regression and Alex bisected it to 43d2932d88e4. The test will call __mark_inode_dirty 3 times. without this commit, we only take inode_lock one time, while with it, we take the lock 3 times with flags ( I_DIRTY_SYNC,I_DIRTY_PAGES,I_DIRTY). Perf shows the lock contention increased too much. Below proposed patch fixes it. fs is allocating blocks, which usually means file writes and the inode will be dirtied soon. We fully dirty the inode to reduce some inode_lock contention in several calls of __mark_inode_dirty. Jan Kara: Added comment.

2010-09-09udp: add rehash on connect()Eric Dumazet2-0/+2
commit 30fff923 introduced in linux-2.6.33 (udp: bind() optimisation) added a secondary hash on UDP, hashed on (local addr, local port). Problem is that following sequence : fd = socket(...) connect(fd, &remote, ...) not only selects remote end point (address and port), but also sets local address, while UDP stack stored in secondary hash table the socket while its local address was INADDR_ANY (or ipv6 equivalent) Sequence is : - autobind() : choose a random local port, insert socket in hash tables [while local address is INADDR_ANY] - connect() : set remote address and port, change local address to IP given by a route lookup. When an incoming UDP frame comes, if more than 10 sockets are found in primary hash table, we switch to secondary table, and fail to find socket because its local address changed. One solution to this problem is to rehash datagram socket if needed. We add a new rehash(struct socket *) method in "struct proto", and implement this method for UDP v4 & v6, using a common helper. This rehashing only takes care of secondary hash table, since primary hash (based on local port only) is not changed.

2010-09-08ipvs: fix active FTPJulian Anastasov1-0/+3
- Do not create expectation when forwarding the PORT command to avoid blocking the connection. The problem is that nf_conntrack_ftp.c:help() tries to create the same expectation later in POST_ROUTING and drops the packet with "dropping packet" message after failure in nf_ct_expect_related. - Change ip_vs_update_conntrack to alter the conntrack for related connections from real server. If we do not alter the reply in this direction the next packet from client sent to vport 20 comes as NEW connection. We alter it but may be some collision happens for both conntracks and the second conntrack gets destroyed immediately. The connection stucks too.

2010-09-08spi/dw_spi: clean the cs_control codeFeng Tang1-0/+2
commit 052dc7c45i "spi/dw_spi: conditional transfer mode change" introduced cs_control code, which has a bug by using bit offset for spi mode to set transfer mode in control register. Also it forces devices who don't need cs_control to re-configure the control registers for each spi transfer. This patch will fix them Signed-off-by: Feng Tang <feng.tang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>
2010-09-08semaphore: Add DEFINE_SEMAPHOREThomas Gleixner1-0/+3
The full cleanup of init_MUTEX[_LOCKED] and DECLARE_MUTEX has not been done. Some of the users are real semaphores and we should name them as such instead of confusing everyone with "MUTEX". Provide the infrastructure to get finally rid of init_MUTEX[_LOCKED] and DECLARE_MUTEX.

2010-09-07agp/intel: Fix cache control for SandybridgeZhenyu Wang1-0/+20
Sandybridge GTT has new cache control bits in PTE, which controls graphics page cache in LLC or LLC/MLC, so we need to extend the mask function to respect the new bits.

2010-09-05cgroups: fix API thinkoMichael S. Tsirkin1-1/+10
cgroup_attach_task_current_cg API that have upstream is backwards: we really need an API to attach to the cgroups from another process A to the current one. In our case (vhost), a priveledged user wants to attach it's task to cgroups from a less priveledged one, the API makes us run it in the other task's context, and this fails. So let's make the API generic and just pass in 'from' and 'to' tasks. Add an inline wrapper for cgroup_attach_task_current_cg to avoid breaking bisect. Signed-off-by: Michael S.
