* 9p: remove sysctlEric Van Hensbergen2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | A sysctl method was added to enable and disable debugging levels. After further review, it was decided that there are better approaches to doing this and the sysctl methodology isn't really desirable. This patch removes the sysctl code from 9p.

* 9p: fix bad kconfig cross-dependencyEric Van Hensbergen2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | This patch moves transport dynamic registration and matching to the net module to prevent a bad Kconfig dependency between the net and fs 9p modules. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* 9p: soften invalidation in loose_modeEric Van Hensbergen2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | Loose mode in 9p utilizes the page cache without respecting coherency with the server. Any writes previously invaldiated the entire mapping for a file. This patch softens the behavior to only invalidate the region of the actual write. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* 9p: attach-per-userLatchesar Ionkov2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 9P2000 protocol requires the authentication and permission checks to be done in the file server. For that reason every user that accesses the file server tree has to authenticate and attach to the server separately. Multiple users can share the same connection to the server. Currently v9fs does a single attach and executes all I/O operations as a single user. This makes using v9fs in multiuser environment unsafe as it depends on the client doing the permission checking. This patch improves the 9P2000 support by allowing every user to attach separately. The patch defines three modes of access (new mount option 'access'): - attach-per-user (access=user) (default mode for 9P2000.u) If a user tries to access a file served by v9fs for the first time, v9fs sends an attach command to the server (Tattach) specifying the user. If the attach succeeds, the user can access the v9fs tree. As there is no uname->uid (string->integer) mapping yet, this mode works only with the 9P2000.u dialect. - allow only one user to access the tree (access=<uid>) Only the user with uid can access the v9fs tree. Other users that attempt to access it will get EPERM error. - do all operations as a single user (access=any) (default for 9P2000) V9fs does a single attach and all operations are done as a single user. If this mode is selected, the v9fs behavior is identical with the current one. Signed-off-by: Latchesar Ionkov <lucho@ionkov.net> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>

* [MIPS] SYNC emulation for MIPS I processorsMaciej W. Rozycki2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Userland, including the C library and the dynamic linker, is keen to use the SYNC instruction, even for "generic" MIPS I binaries these days. Which makes it less than useful on MIPS I processors. This change adds the emulation, but as our do_ri() infrastructure was not really prepared to take yet another instruction, I have rewritten it and its callees slightly as follows. Now there is only a single place a possible signal is thrown from. The place is at the end of do_ri(). The instruction word is fetched in do_ri() and passed down to handlers. The handlers are called in sequence and return a result that lets the caller decide upon further processing. If the result is positive, then the handler has picked the instruction, but a signal should be thrown and the result is the signal number. If the result is zero, then the handler has successfully simulated the instruction. If the result is negative, then the handler did not handle the instruction; to make it more obvious the calls do not follow the usual 0/-Exxx result convention they now return -1 instead of -EFAULT. The calculation of the return EPC is now at the beginning. The reason is it is easier to handle it there as emulation callees may modify a register and an instruction may be located in delay slot of a branch whose result depends on the register. It has to be undone if a signal is to be raised, but it is not a problem as this is the slow-path case, and both actions are done in single places now rather than the former being scattered through emulation handlers. The part of do_cpu() being covered follows the changes to do_ri(). Signed-off-by: Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> ---

| * sched: fix improper load balance across sched domainKen Chen2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We recently discovered a nasty performance bug in the kernel CPU load balancer where we were hit by 50% performance regression. When tasks are assigned to a subset of CPUs that span across sched_domains (either ccNUMA node or the new multi-core domain) via cpu affinity, kernel fails to perform proper load balance at these domains, due to several logic in find_busiest_group() miss identified busiest sched group within a given domain. This leads to inadequate load balance and causes 50% performance hit. To give you a concrete example, on a dual-core, 2 socket numa system, there are 4 logical cpu, organized as: CPU0 attaching sched-domain: domain 0: span 0003 groups: 0001 0002 domain 1: span 000f groups: 0003 000c CPU1 attaching sched-domain: domain 0: span 0003 groups: 0002 0001 domain 1: span 000f groups: 0003 000c CPU2 attaching sched-domain: domain 0: span 000c groups: 0004 0008 domain 1: span 000f groups: 000c 0003 CPU3 attaching sched-domain: domain 0: span 000c groups: 0008 0004 domain 1: span 000f groups: 000c 0003 If I run 2 tasks with CPU affinity set to 0x5. There are situation where cpu0 has run queue length of 2, and cpu2 will be idle. The kernel load balancer is unable to balance out these two tasks over cpu0 and cpu2 due to at least three logics in find_busiest_group() that heavily bias load balance towards power saving mode. e.g. while determining "busiest" variable, kernel only set it when "sum_nr_running > group_capacity". This test is flawed that "sum_nr_running" is not necessary same as sum-tasks-allowed-to-run-within-the sched-group. The end result is that kernel "think" everything is balanced, but in reality we have an imbalance and thus causing one CPU to be over-subscribed and leaving other idle. There are two other logic in the same function will also causing similar effect. The nastiness of this bug is that kernel not be able to get unstuck in this unfortunate broken state. From what we've seen in our environment, kernel will stuck in imbalanced state for extended period of time and it is also very easy for the kernel to stuck into that state (it's pretty much 100% reproducible for us). So proposing the following fix: add addition logic in find_busiest_group to detect intrinsic imbalance within the busiest group. When such condition is detected, load balance goes into spread mode instead of default grouping mode. Signed-off-by: Ken Chen <kenchen@google.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
| * sched: more robust sd-sysctl entry freeingMilton Miller2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It occurred to me this morning that the procname field was dynamically allocated and needed to be freed. I started to put in break statements when allocation failed but it was approaching 50% error handling code. I came up with this alternative of looping while entry->mode is set and checking proc_handler instead of ->table. Alternatively, the string version of the domain name and cpu number could be stored the structs. I verified by compiling CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB and checking the allocation counts after taking a cpuset exclusive and back. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Testing with XEN revealed another ASIC bug. If dom0 resides on a P600 the board can can an MCA bi accessing invalid memory addresses. Apparently, we need to disable both prefetch and refetch.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PA6T has a bug where the slbie instruction does not honor the large segment bit. As a result, we have to always use slbia when switching context. We don't have to worry about changing the slbie's during fault processing, since they should never be replacing one VSID with another using the same ESID. I.e. there's no risk for inserting duplicate entries due to a failed slbie of the old entry. So as long as we clear it out on context switch we should be fine.

I think most people who care know that by now. The rest probably cant even understand the hex output. Since we might have misconfigured firmware or cpus that have a linesize that isnt 128 bytes, I still print it out for those cases. If people would prefer to remove it completely, lets do it. Also for lpar remove the htab_address printout since its not used.
