* workqueue: add to_delayed_work() helper functionJean Delvare2009-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is a fairly common operation to have a pointer to a work and to need a pointer to the delayed work it is contained in. In particular, all delayed works which want to rearm themselves will have to do that. So it would seem fair to offer a helper function for this operation.

* floppy: provide a PNP device table in the module.Scott James Remnant2009-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The missing device table means that the floppy module is not auto-loaded, even when the appropriate PNP device (0700) is found. We don't actually use the table in the module, since the device doesn't have a struct pnp_driver, but it's sufficient to cause an alias in the module that udev/modprobe will use.

* mm: define a UNIQUE value for AS_UNEVICTABLE flagLee Schermerhorn2009-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A new "address_space flag"--AS_MM_ALL_LOCKS--was defined to use the next available AS flag while the Unevictable LRU was under development. The Unevictable LRU was using the same flag and "no one" noticed. Current mainline, since 2.6.28, has same value for two symbolic flag names. So, define a unique flag value for AS_UNEVICTABLE--up close to the other flags, [at the cost of an additional #ifdef] so we'll notice next time. Note that #ifdef is not actually required, if we don't mind having the unused flag value defined. Replace #defines with an enum.

* mm: do_xip_mapping_read: fix length calculationMartin Schwidefsky2009-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The calculation of the value nr in do_xip_mapping_read is incorrect. If the copy required more than one iteration in the do while loop the copies variable will be non-zero. The maximum length that may be passed to the call to copy_to_user(buf+copied, xip_mem+offset, nr) is len-copied but the check only compares against (nr > len).

* writeback: guard against jiffies wraparound on inode->dirtied_when checks ↵Jeff Layton2009-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (try #3) The dirtied_when value on an inode is supposed to represent the first time that an inode has one of its pages dirtied. This value is in units of jiffies. It's used in several places in the writeback code to determine when to write out an inode. The problem is that these checks assume that dirtied_when is updated periodically. If an inode is continuously being used for I/O it can be persistently marked as dirty and will continue to age. Once the time compared to is greater than or equal to half the maximum of the jiffies type, the logic of the time_*() macros inverts and the opposite of what is needed is returned. On 32-bit architectures that's just under 25 days (assuming HZ == 1000). As the least-recently dirtied inode, it'll end up being the first one that pdflush will try to write out. sync_sb_inodes does this check: /* Was this inode dirtied after sync_sb_inodes was called? */ if (time_after(inode->dirtied_when, start)) break; ...but now dirtied_when appears to be in the future. sync_sb_inodes bails out without attempting to write any dirty inodes. When this occurs, pdflush will stop writing out inodes for this superblock. Nothing can unwedge it until jiffies moves out of the problematic window. This patch fixes this problem by changing the checks against dirtied_when to also check whether it appears to be in the future. If it does, then we consider the value to be far in the past. This should shrink the problematic window of time to such a small period (30s) as not to matter.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | clear_inode() will switch inode state from I_FREEING to I_CLEAR, and do so _outside_ of inode_lock.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix a number of issues with the per-MM VMA patch: (1) Make mmap_pages_allocated an atomic_long_t, just in case this is used on a NOMMU system with more than 2G pages. Makes no difference on a 32-bit system. (2) Report vma->vm_pgoff * PAGE_SIZE as a 64-bit value, not a 32-bit value, lest it overflow. (3) Move the allocation of the vm_area_struct slab back for fork.c. (4) Use KMEM_CACHE() for both vm_area_struct and vm_region slabs. (5) Use BUG_ON() rather than if () BUG(). (6) Make the default validate_nommu_regions() a static inline rather than a #define. (7) Make free_page_series()'s objection to pages with a refcount != 1 more informative. (8) Adjust the __put_nommu_region() banner comment to indicate that the semaphore must be held for writing. (9) Limit the number of warnings about munmaps of non-mmapped regions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move down __kernel_syscall_via_epc to the end of the page. We want to paravirtualize only __kernel_syscall_via_epc because it includes privileged instructions. Its paravirtualization increases its symbols size. On the other hand, each paravirtualized gate must have e symbols of same value and size to native's because the page is mapped to GATE_ADDR and GATE_ADDR + PERCPU_PAGE_SIZE and vmlinux is linked to those symbols. Later to have the same symbol size, we pads NOPs at the end of __kernel_syscall_via_epc. Move it after other functions to keep symbols of other functions have same values and sizes.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Makes code futureproof against the impending change to mm->cpu_vm_mask.

So use that instead of NR_CPUS in various places. This is always safe: no cpu number can be >= nr_cpu_ids, and nr_cpu_ids is initialized to NR_CPUS at boot.
