2010-08-26tracing: Fix timer tracingArjan van de Ven
commit ede1b4290781ae82ccf0f2ecc6dada8d3dd35779 upstream. PowerTOP would like to be able to trace timers. Unfortunately, the current timer tracing is not very useful: the actual timer function is not recorded in the trace at the start of timer execution. Although this is recorded for timer "start" time (when it gets armed), this is not useful; most timers get started early, and a tracer like PowerTOP will never see this event, but will only see the actual running of the timer. This patch just adds the function to the timer tracing; I've verified with PowerTOP that now it can get useful information about timers.

2010-08-26mm: make the vma list be doubly linkedLinus Torvalds
commit 297c5eee372478fc32fec5fe8eed711eedb13f3d upstream. It's a really simple list, and several of the users want to go backwards in it to find the previous vma. So rather than have to look up the previous entry with 'find_vma_prev()' or something similar, just make it doubly linked instead.

2010-08-26ALSA: emu10k1 - delay the PCM interrupts (add pcm_irq_delay parameter)Jaroslav Kysela
commit 56385a12d9bb9e173751f74b6c430742018cafc0 upstream. With some hardware combinations, the PCM interrupts are acknowledged before the period boundary from the emu10k1 chip. The midlevel PCM code gets confused and the playback stream is interrupted. It seems that the interrupt processing shift by 2 samples is enough to fix this issue. This default value does not harm other, non-affected hardware.

commit 685fd0b4ea3f0f1d5385610b0d5b57775a8d5842 upstream. A small number of users of IRQF_TIMER are using it for the implied no suspend behaviour on interrupts which are not timer interrupts. Therefore add a new IRQF_NO_SUSPEND flag, rename IRQF_TIMER to __IRQF_TIMER and redefine IRQF_TIMER in terms of these new flags.

2010-08-13arp_notify: allow drivers to explicitly request a notification event.Ian Campbell
commit 06c4648d46d1b757d6b9591a86810be79818b60c upstream. Currently such notifications are only generated when the device comes up or the address changes. However one use case for these notifications is to enable faster network recovery after a virtual machine migration (by causing switches to relearn their MAC tables). A migration appears to the network stack as a temporary loss of carrier and therefore does not trigger either of the current conditions. Rather than adding carrier up as a trigger (which can cause issues when interfaces a flapping) simply add an interface which the driver can use to explicitly trigger the notification.

2010-08-13bio, fs: update RWA_MASK, READA and SWRITE to match the corresponding ↵Tejun Heo
BIO_RW_* bits commit aca27ba9618276dd2f777bcd5a1419589ccf1ca8 upstream. Commit a82afdf (block: use the same failfast bits for bio and request) moved BIO_RW_* bits around such that they match up with REQ_* bits. Unfortunately, fs.h hard coded RW_MASK, RWA_MASK, READ, WRITE, READA and SWRITE as 0, 1, 2 and 3, and expected them to match with BIO_RW_* bits. READ/WRITE didn't change but BIO_RW_AHEAD was moved to bit 4 instead of bit 1, breaking RWA_MASK, READA and SWRITE. This patch updates RWA_MASK, READA and SWRITE such that they match the BIO_RW_* bits again. A follow up patch will update the definitions to directly use BIO_RW_* bits so that this kind of breakage won't happen again. Neil also spotted missing RWA_MASK conversion. Stable: The offending commit a82afdf was released with v2.6.32, so this patch should be applied to all kernels since then but it must _NOT_ be applied to kernels earlier than that.

2010-08-10ssb: do not read SPROM if it does not existJohn W. Linville
commit d53cdbb94a52a920d5420ed64d986c3523a56743 upstream. Attempting to read registers that don't exist on the SSB bus can cause hangs on some boxes. At least some b43 devices are 'in the wild' that don't have SPROMs at all. When the SSB bus support loads, it attempts to read these (non-existant) SPROMs and causes hard hangs on the box -- no console output, etc. This patch adds some intelligence to determine whether or not the SPROM is present before attempting to read it. This avoids those hard hangs on those devices with no SPROM attached to their SSB bus. The SSB-attached devices (e.g. b43, et al.) won't work, but at least the box will survive to test further patches. :-) Signed-off-by: John W.

2010-08-02ACPI / ACPICA: Avoid writing full enable masks to GPE registersRafael J. Wysocki
commit c9a8bbb7704cbf515c0fc68970abbe4e91d68521 upstream. ACPICA uses acpi_hw_write_gpe_enable_reg() to re-enable a GPE after an event signaled by it has been handled. However, this function writes the entire GPE enable mask to the GPE's enable register which may not be correct. Namely, if one of the other GPEs in the same register was previously enabled by acpi_enable_gpe() and subsequently disabled using acpi_set_gpe(), acpi_hw_write_gpe_enable_reg() will re-enable it along with the target GPE. To fix this issue rework acpi_hw_write_gpe_enable_reg() so that it calls acpi_hw_low_set_gpe() with a special action value, ACPI_GPE_COND_ENABLE, that will make it only enable the GPE if the corresponding bit in its register's enable_for_run mask is set.

2010-08-02ACPI / ACPICA: Fix low-level GPE manipulation codeRafael J. Wysocki
commit fd247447c1d94a79d5cfc647430784306b3a8323 upstream. ACPICA uses acpi_ev_enable_gpe() for enabling GPEs at the low level, which is incorrect, because this function only enables the GPE if the corresponding bit in its enable register's enable_for_run mask is set. This causes acpi_set_gpe() to work incorrectly if used for enabling GPEs that were not previously enabled with acpi_enable_gpe(). As a result, among other things, wakeup-only GPEs are never enabled by acpi_enable_wakeup_device(), so the devices that use them are unable to wake up the system. To fix this issue remove acpi_ev_enable_gpe() and its counterpart acpi_ev_disable_gpe() and replace acpi_hw_low_disable_gpe() with acpi_hw_low_set_gpe() that will be used instead to manipulate GPE enable bits at the low level. Make the users of acpi_ev_enable_gpe() and acpi_ev_disable_gpe() call acpi_hw_low_set_gpe() instead and make sure that GPE enable masks are only updated by acpi_enable_gpe() and acpi_disable_gpe() when GPE reference counters change from 0 to 1 and from 1 to 0, respectively.

commit b6dacf63e9fb2e7a1369843d6cef332f76fca6a3 upstream. The ACPI spec tells us that the firmware will reenable SCI_EN on resume. Reality disagrees in some cases. The ACPI spec tells us that the only way to set SCI_EN is via an SMM call. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13745 shows us that doing so may break machines. Tracing the ACPI calls made by Windows shows that it unconditionally sets SCI_EN on resume with a direct register write, and therefore the overwhelming probability is that everything is fine with this behaviour.

2010-08-02compiler-gcc.h: gcc-4.5 needs noclone and noinline on __naked functionsMikael Pettersson
commit 9c695203a7ddbe49dba5f22f4c941d24f47475df upstream. A __naked function is defined in C but with a body completely implemented by asm(), including any prologue and epilogue. These asm() bodies expect standard calling conventions for parameter passing. Older GCCs implement that correctly, but 4.[56] currently do not, see GCC PR44290. In the Linux kernel this breaks ARM, causing most arch/arm/mm/copypage-*.c modules to get miscompiled, resulting in kernel crashes during bootup. Part of the kernel fix is to augment the __naked function attribute to also imply noinline and noclone. This patch implements that, and has been verified to fix boot failures with gcc-4.5 compiled 2.6.34 and 2.6.35-rc1 kernels. The patch is a no-op with older GCCs.

2010-08-02math-emu: correct test for downshifting fraction in _FP_FROM_INT()Mikael Pettersson
commit f8324e20f8289dffc646d64366332e05eaacab25 upstream. The kernel's math-emu code contains a macro _FP_FROM_INT() which is used to convert an integer to a raw normalized floating-point value. It does this basically in three steps: 1. Compute the exponent from the number of leading zero bits. 2. Downshift large fractions to put the MSB in the right position for normalized fractions. 3. Upshift small fractions to put the MSB in the right position. There is an boundary error in step 2, causing a fraction with its MSB exactly one bit above the normalized MSB position to not be downshifted. This results in a non-normalized raw float, which when packed becomes a massively inaccurate representation for that input. The impact of this depends on a number of arch-specific factors, but it is known to have broken emulation of FXTOD instructions on UltraSPARC III, which was originally reported as GCC bug 44631 <http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44631>. Any arch which uses math-emu to emulate conversions from integers to same-size floats may be affected. The fix is simple: the exponent comparison used to determine if the fraction should be downshifted must be "<=" not "<". I'm sending a kernel module to test this as a reply to this message. There are also SPARC user-space test cases in the GCC bug entry. Signed-off-by: Mikael Pettersson <mikpe@it.uu.se> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-08-02net: fix problem in reading sock TX queueTom Herbert
commit b0f77d0eae0c58a5a9691a067ada112ceeae2d00 upstream. Fix problem in reading the tx_queue recorded in a socket. In dev_pick_tx, the TX queue is read by doing a check with sk_tx_queue_recorded on the socket, followed by a sk_tx_queue_get. The problem is that there is not mutual exclusion across these calls in the socket so it it is possible that the queue in the sock can be invalidated after sk_tx_queue_recorded is called so that sk_tx_queue get returns -1, which sets 65535 in queue_index and thus dev_pick_tx returns 65536 which is a bogus queue and can cause crash in dev_queue_xmit. We fix this by only calling sk_tx_queue_get which does the proper checks. The interface is that sk_tx_queue_get returns the TX queue if the sock argument is non-NULL and TX queue is recorded, else it returns -1. sk_tx_queue_recorded is no longer used so it can be completely removed.

2010-07-05compat: factor out compat_rw_copy_check_uvector from compat_do_readv_writevJeff Moyer
commit b83733639a494d5f42fa00a2506563fbd2d3015d upstream. It was reported in http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/3/8/309 that 32 bit readv and writev AIO operations were not functioning properly. It turns out that the code to convert the 32bit io vectors to 64 bits was never written. The results of that can be pretty bad, but in my testing, it mostly ended up in generating EFAULT as we walked off the list of I/O vectors provided. This patch set fixes the problem in my environment. are greatly appreciated. This patch: Factor out code that will be used by both compat_do_readv_writev and the compat aio submission code paths.

2010-07-05slub: move kmem_cache_node into it's own cachelineAlexander Duyck
commit 73367bd8eef4f4eb311005886aaa916013073265 upstream. This patch is meant to improve the performance of SLUB by moving the local kmem_cache_node lock into it's own cacheline separate from kmem_cache. This is accomplished by simply removing the local_node when NUMA is enabled. On my system with 2 nodes I saw around a 5% performance increase w/ hackbench times dropping from 6.2 seconds to 5.9 seconds on average. I suspect the performance gain would increase as the number of nodes increases, but I do not have the data to currently back that up.

2010-07-05aio: fix the compat vectored operationsJeff Moyer
commit 9d85cba718efeef9ca00ce3f7f34f5880737aa9b upstream. The aio compat code was not converting the struct iovecs from 32bit to 64bit pointers, causing either EINVAL to be returned from io_getevents, or EFAULT as the result of the I/O. This patch passes a compat flag to io_submit to signal that pointer conversion is necessary for a given iocb array. A variant of this was tested by Michael Tokarev. I have also updated the libaio test harness to exercise this code path with good success. Further, I grabbed a copy of ltp and ran the testcases/kernel/syscall/readv and writev tests there (compiled with -m32 on my 64bit system). All seems happy, but extra eyes on this would be welcome.

2010-07-05tmpfs: insert tmpfs cache pages to inactive list at firstKOSAKI Motohiro
commit e9d6c157385e4efa61cb8293e425c9d8beba70d3 upstream. Shaohua Li reported parallel file copy on tmpfs can lead to OOM killer. This is regression of caused by commit 9ff473b9a7 ("vmscan: evict streaming IO first"). Wow, It is 2 years old patch! Currently, tmpfs file cache is inserted active list at first. This means that the insertion doesn't only increase numbers of pages in anon LRU, but it also reduces anon scanning ratio. Therefore, vmscan will get totally confused. It scans almost only file LRU even though the system has plenty unused tmpfs pages. Historically, lru_cache_add_active_anon() was used for two reasons. 1) Intend to priotize shmem page rather than regular file cache. 2) Intend to avoid reclaim priority inversion of used once pages. But we've lost both motivation because (1) Now we have separate anon and file LRU list. then, to insert active list doesn't help such priotize. (2) In past, one pte access bit will cause page activation. then to insert inactive list with pte access bit mean higher priority than to insert active list. Its priority inversion may lead to uninteded lru chun. but it was already solved by commit 645747462 (vmscan: detect mapped file pages used only once). (Thanks Hannes, you are great!) Thus, now we can use lru_cache_add_anon() instead.

2010-07-05USB: fix usbmon and DMA mapping for scatter-gather URBsAlan Stern
commit ff9c895f07d36193c75533bda8193bde8ca99d02 upstream. This patch (as1368) fixes a rather obscure bug in usbmon: When tracing URBs sent by the scatter-gather library, it accesses the data buffers while they are still mapped for DMA. The solution is to move the mapping and unmapping out of the s-g library and into the usual place in hcd.c. This requires the addition of new URB flag bits to describe the kind of mapping needed, since we have to call dma_map_sg() if the HCD supports native scatter-gather operation and dma_map_page() if it doesn't. The nice thing about having the new flags is that they simplify the testing for unmapping. The patch removes the only caller of usb_buffer_[un]map_sg(), so those functions are #if'ed out. A later patch will remove them entirely. As a result of this change, urb->sg will be set in situations where it wasn't set previously. Hence the xhci and whci drivers are adjusted to test urb->num_sgs instead, which retains its original meaning and is nonzero only when the HCD has to handle a scatterlist. Finally, even when a submission error occurs we don't want to hand URBs to usbmon before they are unmapped. The submission path is rearranged so that map_urb_for_dma() is called only for non-root-hub URBs and unmap_urb_for_dma() is called immediately after a submission error. This simplifies the error handling. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2010-05-15Fix the regression created by "set S_DEAD on unlink()..." commitAl Viro
1) i_flags simply doesn't work for mount/unlink race prevention; we may have many links to file and rm on one of those obviously shouldn't prevent bind on top of another later on. To fix it right way we need to mark _dentry_ as unsuitable for mounting upon; new flag (DCACHE_CANT_MOUNT) is protected by d_flags and i_mutex on the inode in question. Set it (with dont_mount(dentry)) in unlink/rmdir/etc., check (with cant_mount(dentry)) in places in namespace.c that used to check for S_DEAD. Setting S_DEAD is still needed in places where we used to set it (for directories getting killed), since we rely on it for readdir/rmdir race prevention. 2) rename()/mount() protection has another bogosity - we unhash the target before we'd checked that it's not a mountpoint. Fixed. 3) ancient bogosity in pivot_root() - we locked i_mutex on the right directory, but checked S_DEAD on the different (and wrong) one. Noticed and fixed.

2010-05-11revert "procfs: provide stack information for threads" and its fixup commitsRobin Holt
Originally, commit d899bf7b ("procfs: provide stack information for threads") attempted to introduce a new feature for showing where the threadstack was located and how many pages are being utilized by the stack. Commit c44972f1 ("procfs: disable per-task stack usage on NOMMU") was applied to fix the NO_MMU case. Commit 89240ba0 ("x86, fs: Fix x86 procfs stack information for threads on 64-bit") was applied to fix a bug in ia32 executables being loaded. Commit 9ebd4eba7 ("procfs: fix /proc/<pid>/stat stack pointer for kernel threads") was applied to fix a bug which had kernel threads printing a userland stack address. Commit 1306d603f ('proc: partially revert "procfs: provide stack information for threads"') was then applied to revert the stack pages being used to solve a significant performance regression. This patch nearly undoes the effect of all these patches. The reason for reverting these is it provides an unusable value in field 28. For x86_64, a fork will result in the task->stack_start value being updated to the current user top of stack and not the stack start address. This unpredictability of the stack_start value makes it worthless. That includes the intended use of showing how much stack space a thread has. Other architectures will get different values. As an example, ia64 gets 0. The do_fork() and copy_process() functions appear to treat the stack_start and stack_size parameters as architecture specific. I only partially reverted c44972f1 ("procfs: disable per-task stack usage on NOMMU") . If I had completely reverted it, I would have had to change mm/Makefile only build pagewalk.o when CONFIG_PROC_PAGE_MONITOR is configured. Since I could not test the builds without significant effort, I decided to not change mm/Makefile. I only partially reverted 89240ba0 ("x86, fs: Fix x86 procfs stack information for threads on 64-bit") . I left the KSTK_ESP() change in place as that seemed worthwhile.
