* paride drivers: initialize spinlocksAlexey Dobriyan2007-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | pcd_lock and pf_spin_lock are passed to blk_init_queue() which, seeing them as valid lock pointer, sets it as ->queue_lock. The problem is that pcd_lock and pf_spin_lock aren't initialized anywhere.

* Taskstats fix the structure members alignment issueBalbir Singh2007-04-24

In the current kernel, the taskstats structure is not suitable for use by 32 bit applications in a 64 bit kernel. On x86_64 Offsets of taskstats' members (64 bit kernel, 64 bit application) @taskstats'offsetof[@taskstats'indices] = ( 0, # version 4, # ac_exitcode 8, # ac_flag 9, # ac_nice 16, # cpu_count 24, # cpu_delay_total 32, # blkio_count 40, # blkio_delay_total 48, # swapin_count 56, # swapin_delay_total 64, # cpu_run_real_total 72, # cpu_run_virtual_total 80, # ac_comm 112, # ac_sched 113, # ac_pad 116, # ac_uid 120, # ac_gid 124, # ac_pid 128, # ac_ppid 132, # ac_btime 136, # ac_etime 144, # ac_utime 152, # ac_stime 160, # ac_minflt 168, # ac_majflt 176, # coremem 184, # virtmem 192, # hiwater_rss 200, # hiwater_vm 208, # read_char 216, # write_char 224, # read_syscalls 232, # write_syscalls 240, # read_bytes 248, # write_bytes 256, # cancelled_write_bytes ); Offsets of taskstats' members (64 bit kernel, 32 bit application) @taskstats'offsetof[@taskstats'indices] = ( 0, # version 4, # ac_exitcode 8, # ac_flag 9, # ac_nice 12, # cpu_count 20, # cpu_delay_total 28, # blkio_count 36, # blkio_delay_total 44, # swapin_count 52, # swapin_delay_total 60, # cpu_run_real_total 68, # cpu_run_virtual_total 76, # ac_comm 108, # ac_sched 109, # ac_pad 112, # ac_uid 116, # ac_gid 120, # ac_pid 124, # ac_ppid 128, # ac_btime 132, # ac_etime 140, # ac_utime 148, # ac_stime 156, # ac_minflt 164, # ac_majflt 172, # coremem 180, # virtmem 188, # hiwater_rss 196, # hiwater_vm 204, # read_char 212, # write_char 220, # read_syscalls 228, # write_syscalls 236, # read_bytes 244, # write_bytes 252, # cancelled_write_bytes ); This is one way to solve the problem without re-arranging structure members is to pack the structure. The patch adds an __attribute__((aligned(8))) to the taskstats structure members so that 32 bit applications using taskstats can work with a 64 bit kernel. Using __attribute__((packed)) would break the 64 bit alignment of members. The fix was tested on x86_64.

After subtraction this results in a checksum for the 1st fragment with bits 16..31 set to 1. (this is ok) _AND_ 3) The checksum of the 1st fragment's TCP header plus the previously 32bit checksum of the 1st fragment DOES NOT cause a 32bit overflow when added together. This results in a checksum of the TCP header plus TCP data that still has the upper 16 bits as 1's. _THEN_ 4) The TCP+data checksum is added to the checksum of the pseudo IP header with csum_tcpudp_nofold() incorrectly (the bug). The problem is the checksum of the TCP+data is passed to csum_tcpudp_nofold() as an 32bit unsigned value, however the assembly code acts on it as if it is a 64bit unsigned value. This causes an incorrect 32->64bit extension if the sum has bit 31 set. The resulting checksum is off by one. This problems is data and TCP header dependent due to #2 and #3 above so it doesn't occur on every TCP packet split.

Firstly, it may simply happen that the socket send queue was full at the time the request was initially sent through xprt_transmit(). Secondly, doing this for each request that was retransmitted implies that we disconnect and reconnect for _every_ request that happened to be retransmitted irrespective of whether or not a disconnection has already occurred.

* | | cfq-iosched: fix sequential write regressionJens Axboe2007-04-21
|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have a 10-15% performance regression for sequential writes on TCQ/NCQ enabled drives in 2.6.21-rcX after the CFQ update went in. It has been reported by Valerie Clement <valerie.clement@bull.net> and the Intel testing folks. The regression is because of CFQ's now more aggressive queue control, limiting the depth available to the device. This patches fixes that regression by allowing a greater depth when only one queue is busy. It has been tested to not impact sync-vs-async workloads too much - we still do a lot better than 2.6.20.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 60cba200f11b6f90f35634c5cd608773ae3721b7. It's been linked to lockups of the e1000 hardware, see for example https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=229603 but it's likely that the commit itself is not really introducing the bug, but just allowing an unrelated problem to rear its ugly head (ie one current working theory is that the code exposes us to a hardware race condition by decreasing the amount of time we spend in each NAPI poll cycle). We'll revert it until root cause is known. Intel has a repeatable reproduction on two different machines and bus traces of the hardware doing something bad.

By setting these appropriately, normal performance goes from 750Mbytes/sec to 940Mbytes/sec (non-jumbo). It is also possible to do Jumbo mode, but it means turning off TSO and checksum offload so the performance gets worse. There isn't enough buffering for checksum offload to work.

I.e. length is according to full UDP datagram, not just the part within the actual frame! But this is only true within the first frame: all following frames don't have a valid UDP-header at all. The spidernet silicon seems to be quite intelligent: It's able to compute (IP / UDP / Ethernet) checksums on the fly and tests if frames are conforming to RFC -- at least conforming to RFC on complete frames. But IP fragments are different as explained above: I.e. for IP fragments containing part of a UDP datagram it sees incompatible length in the headers for IP and UDP in the first frame and, thus, skips this frame. But the content *is* correct for IP fragments. For all following frames it finds (most probably) no valid UDP header at all. But this *is* also correct for IP fragments. The Linux IP-stack seems to be clever in this point. It expects the spidernet to calculate the checksum (since the module claims to be able to do so) and marks the skb's for "normal" frames accordingly (ip_summed set to CHECKSUM_HW). But for the IP fragments it does not expect the driver to be capable to handle the frames appropriately. Thus all checksums are allready computed. This is also flaged within the skb (ip_summed set to CHECKSUM_NONE). Unfortunately the spidernet driver ignores that hints. It tries to send the IP fragments of UDP datagrams as normal UDP/IP frames. Since they have different structure the silicon detects them the be not "well-formed" and skips them. The following one-liner against 2.6.21-rc2 changes this behavior. If the IP-stack claims to have done the checksumming, the driver should not try to checksum (and analyze) the frame but send it as is.
