2006-10-28[PATCH] __vmalloc with GFP_ATOMIC causes 'sleeping from invalid context'Giridhar Pemmasani1-1/+2
If __vmalloc is called to allocate memory with GFP_ATOMIC in atomic context, the chain of calls results in __get_vm_area_node allocating memory for vm_struct with GFP_KERNEL, causing the 'sleeping from invalid context' warning. This patch fixes it by passing the gfp flags along so __get_vm_area_node allocates memory for vm_struct with the same flags.

2006-10-28[PATCH] vmscan: Fix temp_priority raceMartin Bligh1-5/+1
The temp_priority field in zone is racy, as we can walk through a reclaim path, and just before we copy it into prev_priority, it can be overwritten (say with DEF_PRIORITY) by another reclaimer. The same bug is contained in both try_to_free_pages and balance_pgdat, but it is fixed slightly differently. In balance_pgdat, we keep a separate priority record per zone in a local array. In try_to_free_pages there is no need to do this, as the priority level is the same for all zones that we reclaim from. Impact of this bug is that temp_priority is copied into prev_priority, and setting this artificially high causes reclaimers to set distress artificially low. They then fail to reclaim mapped pages, when they are, in fact, under severe memory pressure (their priority may be as low as 0). This causes the OOM killer to fire incorrectly. From: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> __zone_reclaim() isn't modifying zone->prev_priority. But zone->prev_priority is used in the decision whether or not to bring mapped pages onto the inactive list. Hence there's a risk here that __zone_reclaim() will fail because zone->prev_priority ir large (ie: low urgency) and lots of mapped pages end up stuck on the active list. Fix that up by decreasing (ie making more urgent) zone->prev_priority as __zone_reclaim() scans the zone's pages. This bug perhaps explains why ZONE_RECLAIM_PRIORITY was created. It should be possible to remove that now, and to just start out at DEF_PRIORITY?

2006-10-27[PATCH] drivers: wait for threaded probes between initcall levelsAndrew Morton2-10/+27
The multithreaded-probing code has a problem: after one initcall level (eg, core_initcall) has been processed, we will then start processing the next level (postcore_initcall) while the kernel threads which are handling core_initcall are still executing. This breaks the guarantees which the layered initcalls previously gave us. IOW, we want to be multithreaded _within_ an initcall level, but not between different levels. Fix that up by causing the probing code to wait for all outstanding probes at one level to complete before we start processing the next level.

A number of new drivers require io{read,write}{8,16,32}{be,} family of io operations. These are provided for the AVR32 by this patch in the form of a series of macros. Access to the (memory mapped) io space through these macros is defined to be little endian only as little endian devices (such as PCI) are the main consumer of IO access. If high speed access is required, io{read,write}{16,32}be macros are supplied to perform native big endian access to this io space.

The transport class recv mempools are causing slab corruption. We could hack around netlink's lack of mempool support like dm, but it is just too ulgy (dm's hack is ugly enough :) when you need to support broadcast. This patch removes the recv pools. We have not used them even when we were allocting 20 MB per session and the system only had 64 MBs. And we have no pools on the send side and have been ok there. When Peter's work gets merged we can use that since the network guys are in favor of that approach and are not going to add mempools everywhere.

2006-10-25[POWERPC] Cell timebase bug workaroundBenjamin Herrenschmidt5-23/+62
The Cell CPU timebase has an erratum. When reading the entire 64 bits of the timebase with one mftb instruction, there is a handful of cycles window during which one might read a value with the low order 32 bits already reset to 0x00000000 but the high order bits not yet incremeted by one. This fixes it by reading the timebase again until the low order 32 bits is no longer 0. That might introduce occasional latencies if hitting mftb just at the wrong time, but no more than 70ns on a cell blade, and that was considered acceptable.

2006-10-25[POWERPC] Support feature fixups in vdso'sBenjamin Herrenschmidt4-39/+67
This patch reworks the feature fixup mecanism so vdso's can be fixed up. The main issue was that the construct: .long label (or .llong on 64 bits) will not work in the case of a shared library like the vdso. It will generate an empty placeholder in the fixup table along with a reloc, which is not something we can deal with in the vdso. The idea here (thanks Alan Modra !) is to instead use something like: 1: .long label - 1b That is, the feature fixup tables no longer contain addresses of bits of code to patch, but offsets of such code from the fixup table entry itself. That is properly resolved by ld when building the .so's. I've modified the fixup mecanism generically to use that method for the rest of the kernel as well. Another trick is that the 32 bits vDSO included in the 64 bits kernel need to have a table in the 64 bits format. However, gas does not support 32 bits code with a statement of the form: .llong label - 1b (Or even just .llong label) That is, it cannot emit the right fixup/relocation for the linker to use to assign a 32 bits address to an .llong field. Thus, in the specific case of the 32 bits vdso built as part of the 64 bits kernel, we are using a modified macro that generates: .long 0xffffffff .llong label - 1b Note that is assumes that the value is negative which is enforced by the .lds (those offsets are always negative as the .text is always before the fixup table and gas doesn't support emiting the reloc the other way around).

In addition, they are both in assembly and with separate implementations for 32 and 64 bits. identify_cpu() is also implemented in assembly and separately for 32 and 64 bits. This patch replaces them with a pair of C functions. The call sites are slightly moved on ppc64 as well to be called from C instead of from assembly, though it's a very small change, and thus shouldn't cause any problem.

2006-10-25[PATCH] x86-64: Only look at per_cpu data for online cpus.Eric W. Biederman1-0/+2
When I generalized __assign_irq_vector I failed to pay attention to what happens when you access a per cpu data structure for a cpu that is not online. It is an undefined case making any code that does it have undefined behavior as well. The code still needs to be able to allocate a vector across cpus that are not online to properly handle combinations like lowest priority interrupt delivery and cpu_hotplug. Not that we can do that today but the infrastructure shouldn't prevent it. So this patch updates the places where we touch per cpu data to only touch online cpus, it makes cpu vector allocation an atomic operation with respect to cpu hotplug, and it updates the cpu start code to properly initialize vector_irq so we don't have inconsistencies.

Eliminate more __must_check madness. The return code from device_for_each_child() depends on the values which the helper function returns. If the helper function always returns zero, it's utterly pointless to check the return code from device_for_each_child(). The only code which knows if the return value should be checked is the caller itself, so forcing the return code to always be checked is silly. Hence, remove the __must_check annotation.

2006-10-21[NET]: Reduce sizeof(struct flowi) by 20 bytes.Eric Dumazet2-8/+0
As suggested by David, just kill off some unused fields in dnports to reduce sizef(struct flowi). If they come back, they should be moved to nl_u.dn_u in order not to enlarge again struct flowi [ Modified to really delete this stuff instead of using #if 0. -DaveM ] Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-10-21[MIPS] Fix aliasing bug in copy_to_user_page / copy_from_user_pageRalf Baechle2-18/+15
The current implementation uses a sequence of a cacheflush and a copy. This is racy in case of a multithreaded debuggee and renders GDB virtually unusable. Aside this fixes a performance hog rendering access to /proc/cmdline very slow and resulting in a enough cache stalls for the 34K AP/SP programming model to make the bare metal code on the non-Linux VPE miss RT deadlines. The main part of this patch was originally written by Ralf Baechle; Atushi Nemoto did the the debugging.

2006-10-21[PATCH] cpuset: mempolicy migration typo fixPaul Jackson1-1/+1
Mistyped an ifdef CONFIG_CPUSETS - fixed. I doubt that anyone ever noticed. The impact of this typo was that if someone: 1) was using MPOL_BIND to force off node allocations 2) while using cpusets to constrain memory placement 3) when that cpuset was migrating that jobs memory 4) while the tasks in that job were actively forking then there was a rare chance that future allocations using that MPOL_BIND policy would be node local, not off node.
