* perf_counter: add ioctl(PERF_COUNTER_IOC_RESET)Peter Zijlstra2009-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Provide a way to reset an existing counter - this eases PAPI libraries around perfcounters. Similar to read() it doesn't collapse pending child counters.

* perf_counter: uncouple data_head updates from wakeupsPeter Zijlstra2009-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Keep data_head up-to-date irrespective of notifications. This fixes the case where you disable a counter and don't get a notification for the last few pending events, and it also allows polling usage.

* perf_counter: fix fixed-purpose counter support on v2 Intel-PERFMONIngo Molnar2009-05-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixed-purpose counters stopped working in a simple 'perf stat ls' run: <not counted> cache references <not counted> cache misses Due to: ef7b3e0: perf_counter, x86: remove vendor check in fixed_mode_idx() Which made x86_pmu.num_counters_fixed matter: if it's nonzero, the fixed-purpose counters are utilized. But on v2 perfmon this field is not set (despite there being fixed-purpose PMCs). So add a quirk to set the number of fixed-purpose counters to at least three.

* perf_counter: convert perf_resource_mutex to a spinlockIngo Molnar2009-05-04
| | | | | | | | | | | Now percpu counters can be initialized very early. But the init sequence uses mutex_lock(). Fortunately, perf_resource_mutex should be a spinlock anyway, so convert it.

* perf_counter: initialize the per-cpu context earlierIngo Molnar2009-05-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | percpu scheduling for perfcounters wants to take the context lock, but that lock first needs to be initialized. Currently it is an early_initcall() - but that is too late, the task tick runs much sooner than that. Call it explicitly from the scheduler init sequence instead.

This breaks static build of video4linux drivers, that use generic CPU i2c adapter drivers and the v4l2-subdev subsystem, because during video4linux probing the v4l2-subdev core requires a struct i2c_adapter context, which cannot be satisfied before the i2c subsystem is initialised. Moving drivers/media after drivers/i2c fixes this problem. The best way to trigger action is by submitting a patch:-) So, let's see what comes out of it - on the one hand I don't see any reason why media has to be linked this early, and nobody was able to give me one yesterday as this problem has been discussed on linux-media, OTOH, maybe indeed it would be better to move i2c the whole way up above media, but that'd be much bigger of a change, I think. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Signed-off-by: Guennadi Liakhovetski <g.liakhovetski@gmx.de> Acked-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>

The problem is that shutdown is doing the same thing that suspend does and puts the device in D3 state. I couldn't find a way to get the device back to a sane state in the probe function.

With the usage of Simple Pairing it is required that all connections (except the ones for SDP) are encrypted. So even the low security requirement mandates an encrypted connection when using Simple Pairing. When using Legacy Pairing (for Bluetooth 2.0 devices and older) this is not required since it causes interoperability issues. To support this properly the low security requirement translates into different host controller transactions depending if Simple Pairing is supported or not. However in case of Simple Pairing the command to switch on encryption after a successful authentication is not triggered for the low security mode. This patch fixes this and actually makes the logic to differentiate between Simple Pairing and Legacy Pairing a lot simpler.

| | | * | Bluetooth: Add different pairing timeout for Legacy PairingMarcel Holtmann2009-04-28

The problem part is the dedicated pairing when using Legacy Pairing (Bluetooth 2.0 and before). At that point no user is present and pairing attempts will be disconnected within 10 seconds or less. In previous kernel version this was not a problem since the disconnect timeout wasn't triggered on incoming connections for the first time. However this caused issues with broken host stacks that kept the connections around after dedicated pairing. When the support for Simple Pairing got added, the link establishment procedure needed to be changed and now causes issues when using Legacy Pairing When using Simple Pairing it is possible to do a proper reference counting of ACL link users. With Legacy Pairing this is not possible since the specification is unclear in some areas and too many broken Bluetooth devices have already been deployed. So instead of trying to deal with all the broken devices, a special pairing timeout will be introduced that increases the timeout to 60 seconds when pairing is triggered. If a broken devices now puts the stack into an unforeseen state, the worst that happens is the disconnect timeout triggers after 120 seconds instead of 4 seconds. This allows successful pairings with legacy and broken devices now. Based on a report by Johan Hedberg <johan.hedberg@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

| | * | | netfilter: revised locking for x_tablesStephen Hemminger2009-04-29

On older kernels there was a reader/writer lock per table which was a performance bottleneck. In 2.6.30-rc, this was converted to use RCU and the counters/rules which solved the performance problems for do_table but made replacing rules much slower because of the necessary RCU grace period. This version uses a per-cpu set of spinlocks and counters to allow to table processing to proceed without the cache thrashing of a global reader lock and keeps the same performance for table updates.

| | * | net: Avoid extra wakeups of threads blocked in wait_for_packet()Eric Dumazet2009-04-28

This unfortunatly added a penalty when a frame is transmitted, since we have at TX completion time to call sock_wfree() to perform necessary memory accounting. This calls sock_def_write_space() and utimately scheduler if any thread is waiting on the socket. Thread(s) waiting for an incoming frame was scheduled, then had to sleep again as event was meaningless. (All threads waiting on a socket are using same sk_sleep anchor) This adds lot of extra wakeups and increases latencies, as noted by Christoph Lameter, and slows down softirq handler. Reference : http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=124060437012283&w=2 Fortunatly, Davide Libenzi recently added concept of keyed wakeups into kernel, and particularly for sockets (see commit 37e5540b3c9d838eb20f2ca8ea2eb8072271e403 epoll keyed wakeups: make sockets use keyed wakeups) Davide goal was to optimize epoll, but this new wakeup infrastructure can help non epoll users as well, if they care to setup an appropriate handler. This patch introduces new DEFINE_WAIT_FUNC() helper and uses it in wait_for_packet(), so that only relevant event can wakeup a thread blocked in this function. Trace of function calls from bnx2 TX completion bnx2_poll_work() is : __kfree_skb() skb_release_head_state() sock_wfree() sock_def_write_space() __wake_up_sync_key() __wake_up_common() receiver_wake_function() : Stops here since thread is waiting for an INPUT Reported-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | * | ipv4: Limit size of route cache hash tableAnton Blanchard2009-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now we have no upper limit on the size of the route cache hash table. On a 128GB POWER6 box it ends up as 32MB: IP route cache hash table entries: 4194304 (order: 9, 33554432 bytes) It would be nice to cap this for memory consumption reasons, but a massive hashtable also causes a significant spike when measuring OS jitter. With a 32MB hashtable and 4 million entries, rt_worker_func is taking 5 ms to complete. On another system with more memory it's taking 14 ms. Even though rt_worker_func does call cond_sched() to limit its impact, in an HPC environment we want to keep all sources of OS jitter to a minimum. With the patch applied we limit the number of entries to 512k which can still be overriden by using the rt_entries boot option: IP route cache hash table entries: 524288 (order: 6, 4194304 bytes) With this patch rt_worker_func now takes 0.460 ms on the same system.
