* [MTD] CFI: Use 16-bit access to autoselect/read device id dataTodd Poynor2005-11-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recent models of Intel/Sharp and Spansion CFI flash now have significant bits in the upper byte of device ID codes, read via what Spansion calls "autoselect" and Intel calls "read device identifier". Currently these values are truncated to the low 8 bits in the mtd data structures, as all CFI read query info has previously been read one byte at a time. Add a new method for reading 16-bit info, currently just manufacturer and device codes; datasheets hint at future uses for upper bytes in other fields.

* [JFFS2] Fix the slab cache constructor of 'struct jffs2_inode_info' objects.Thomas Gleixner2005-11-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | JFFS2 initialize f->sem mutex as "locked" in the slab constructor which is a bug. Objects are freed with unlocked f->sem mutex. So, when they allocated again, f->sem is unlocked because the slab cache constructor is not called for them. The constructor is called only once when memory pages are allocated for objects (namely, when the slab layer allocates new slabs). So, sometimes 'struct jffs2_inode_info' are allocated with unlocked f->sem, sometimes with locked. This is a bug. Instead, initialize f->sem as unlocked in the constructor. I.e., in the "constructed" state f->sem must be unlocked. From: Keijiro Yano <keijiro_yano@yahoo.co.jp> Acked-by: Artem B.

| * | [ARM] Do not call flush_tlb_kernel_range() with IRQs disabled.Russell King2005-11-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We must not call TLB maintainence operations with interrupts disabled, otherwise we risk a lockup in the SMP IPI code. This means that consistent_free() can not be called from a context with IRQs disabled. In addition, we must not hold the lock in consistent_free when we call flush_tlb_kernel_range(). However, we must continue to prevent consistent_alloc() from re-using the memory region until we've finished tearing down the mapping and dealing with the TLB. Therefore, leave the vm_region entry in the list, but mark it inactive before dropping the lock and starting the tear-down process. After the mapping has been torn down, re-acquire the lock and remove the entry from the list. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

* | | [PATCH] shrinker->nr = LONG_MAX means deadlock for icacheAndrea Arcangeli2005-11-28

To do this, it retains state concerning how many slabs have been scanned - if a particular slab shrinker didn't scan enough objects, we remember that for next time, and scan more objects on the next pass. The problem with this is that with (say) a huge number of GFP_NOIO direct-reclaim attempts, the number of objects which are to be scanned when we finally get a GFP_KERNEL request can be huge. Because some shrinker handlers just bail out if !__GFP_FS. So the patch clamps the number of objects-to-be-scanned to 2* the total number of objects in the slab cache.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If you have an array with a write-intent-bitmap, and you remove a device, then re-add it, a full recovery isn't needed. We detect a re-add by looking at saved_raid_disk. For raid1, it doesn't matter which disk it was, only whether or not it was an active device. The old code being removed set a value of 'mirror' which was then ignored, so it can go. The changed code performs the correct check. For raid6, if there are two missing devices, make sure we chose the right slot on --re-add rather than always the first slot.

* | | [PATCH] md: improve read speed to raid10 arrays using 'far copies'NeilBrown2005-11-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | raid10 has two different layouts. One uses near-copies (so multiple copies of a block are at the same or similar offsets of different devices) and the other uses far-copies (so multiple copies of a block are stored a greatly different offsets on different devices). The point of far-copies is that it allows the first section (normally first half) to be layed out in normal raid0 style, and thus provide raid0 sequential read performance. Unfortunately, the read balancing in raid10 makes some poor decisions for far-copies arrays and you don't get the desired performance. So turn off that bad bit of read_balance for far-copies arrays. With this patch, read speed of an 'f2' array is comparable with a raid0 with the same number of devices, though write speed is ofcourse still very slow.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some users (hi Zwane) have seen a problem when running a workload that eats nearly all of physical memory - th system does an OOM kill, even when there is still a lot of swap free. The problem appears to be a very big task that is holding the swap token, and the VM has a very hard time finding any other page in the system that is swappable. Instead of ignoring the swap token when sc->priority reaches 0, we could simply take the swap token away from the memory hog and make sure we don't give it back to the memory hog for a few seconds.

Basically what we have is this: --- pages_high | | (a) | --- pages_low | | (b) | --- pages_min | | (c) | --- 0 Now when pages_low is reached, we want to kick asynch reclaim, which gives us an interval of "b" before we must start synch reclaim, and gives kswapd an interval of "a" before it need go back to sleep. When pages_min is reached, normal allocators must enter synch reclaim, but PF_MEMALLOC, ALLOC_HARDER, and ALLOC_HIGH (ie. atomic allocations, recursive allocations, etc.) get access to varying amounts of the reserve "c".

In the m32r kernel, sys_tas() system call is provided as a test-and-set function for userspace, for backward compatibility. In some multi-threading application program, deadlocks were rarely caused at sys_tas() funcion. Such a deadlock was caused due to a collision of __pthread_lock() and __pthread_unlock() operations. The "tas" syscall is repeatedly called by pthread_mutex_lock() to get a lock, while a lock variable's value is not 0. On the other hand, pthead_mutex_unlock() sets the lock variable to 0 for unlocking. In the previous implementation of sys_tas() routine, there was a possibility that a unlock operation was ignored in the following case: - Assume a lock variable (*addr) was equal to 1 before sys_tas() execution. - __pthread_unlock() operation is executed by the other processor and the lock variable (*addr) is set to 0, between a read operation ("oldval = *addr;") and the following write operation ("*addr = 1;") during a execution of sys_tas(). In this case, the following write operation ("*addr = 1;") overwrites the __pthread_unlock() result, and sys_tas() fails to get a lock in the next turn and after that. According to the attatched patch, sys_tas() returns 0 value in the next turn and deadlocks never happen.

* | | [PATCH] Fix hardcoded cpu=0 in workqueue for per_cpu_ptr() callsBen Collins2005-11-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tracked this down on an Ultra Enterprise 3000. It's a 6-way machine. Odd thing about this machine (and it's good for finding bugs like this) is that the CPU id's are not 0 based. For instance, on my machine the CPU's are 6/7/10/11/14/15. This caused some NULL pointer dereference in kernel/workqueue.c because for single_threaded workqueue's, it hardcoded the cpu to 0. I changed the 0's to any_online_cpu(cpu_online_mask), which cpumask.h claims is "First cpu in mask". So this fits the same usage.

(3) CONFIG_HIGHMEM can't be used directly in #if as it may not be defined. (4) page->private is no longer directly accessible. (5) linux/hardirq.h assumes asm/hardirq.h will include linux/irq.h (6) The IDE MMIO access functions are given pointers, not integers, and so get type casting errors. (7) __pa() is passed an explicit u64 type in drivers/char/mem.c, but that can't be cast directly to a pointer on a 32-bit platform.

* | | [PATCH] clean up lock_cpu_hotplug() in cpufreqAshok Raj2005-11-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are some callers in cpufreq hotplug notify path that the lowest function calls lock_cpu_hotplug(). The lock is already held during cpu_up() and cpu_down() calls when the notify calls are broadcast to registered clients. Ideally if possible, we could disable_preempt() at the highest caller and make sure we dont sleep in the path down in cpufreq->driver_target() calls but the calls are so intertwined and cumbersome to cleanup. Hence we consistently use lock_cpu_hotplug() and unlock_cpu_hotplug() in all places. - Removed export of cpucontrol semaphore and made it static. - removed explicit uses of up/down with lock_cpu_hotplug() so we can keep track of the the callers in same thread context and just keep refcounts without calling a down() that causes a deadlock. - Removed current_in_hotplug() uses - Removed PF_HOTPLUG_CPU in sched.h introduced for the current_in_hotplug() temporary workaround. Tested with insmod of cpufreq_stat.ko, and logical online/offline to make sure we dont have any hang situations.

Apparently the old compiler avoids generating calls to __pud_alloc and __pmd_alloc but still lists them as undefined references in the module's symbol table. I don't know which change caused this problem. I think it was added somewhere between 2.6.14 and 2.6.15-rc1, because I remember building several 2.6.14-rc kernels without difficulty. However I can't point to an individual culprit. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* | | mm: re-architect the VM_UNPAGED logicLinus Torvalds2005-11-28
| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This replaces the (in my opinion horrible) VM_UNMAPPED logic with very explicit support for a "remapped page range" aka VM_PFNMAP. It allows a VM area to contain an arbitrary range of page table entries that the VM never touches, and never considers to be normal pages. Any user of "remap_pfn_range()" automatically gets this new functionality, and doesn't even have to mark the pages reserved or indeed mark them any other way. It just works. As a side effect, doing mmap() on /dev/mem works for arbitrary ranges. Sparc update from David in the next commit. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
