* [PATCH] reorder struct files_structEric Dumazet2005-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The file_lock spinlock sits close to mostly read fields of 'struct files_struct' In SMP (and NUMA) environments, each time a thread wants to open or close a file, it has to acquire the spinlock, thus invalidating the cache line containing this spinlock on other CPUS. So other threads doing read()/write()/... calls that use RCU to access the file table are going to ask further memory (possibly NUMA) transactions to read again this memory line. Move the spinlock to another cache line, so that concurrent threads can share the cache line containing 'count' and 'fdt' fields. It's worth up to 9% on a microbenchmark using a 4-thread 2-package x86 machine.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.6/diffs/fs/locks.c@1.70??nav=index.html introduced a pretty nasty memory leak in the lease code. When freeing the lease, the code in locks_delete_lock() will correctly clean up the fasync queue, but when we return to fcntl_setlease(), the freed fasync entry will be reinstated. This patch ensures that we skip the call to fasync_helper() when we're freeing up the lease. Signed-off-by: J.

We had similar problems with other ioctls where userspace did things like that. What we did there was to put the compat handler to generic code. The patch below does that, adding a big comment about what's going on and removing the COMPAT_IOCTL entires for these on powerpc that not only weren't ever useful but are duplicated now aswell.

* | [BLOCK] elevator: elv_latter/former_request updateTejun Heo2005-11-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With generic dispatch queue update, implicit former/latter request handling using rq->queuelist.prev/next doesn't work as expected anymore. Also, the only iosched dependent on this feature was noop-iosched and it has been reimplemented to have its own latter/former methods. This patch removes implicit former/latter handling.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original implementation directly used dispatch queue. As new generic dispatch queue imposes stricter rules over ioscheds and dispatch queue usage, this direct use becomes somewhat problematic.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds request_queue->nr_sorted which keeps the number of requests in the iosched and implement elv_drain_elevator which performs forced dispatching. elv_drain_elevator checks whether iosched actually dispatches all requests it has and prints error message if it doesn't.

The union sctp_arg_t contains different sized elements and when loading a smaller sized element (32 or 16 bits), it is possible for a speculative load to fail and result in a NaT bit set which causes a kernel crash.
