* efifb: Add override for 11" Macbook Air 3,1Matthew Garrett2011-04-06
| | | | | | | | | The 11" Macbook Air appears to claim that its stride is 1366, when it's actually 2048. Override it. Signed-off-by: Matthew Garrett <mjg@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Jones <pjones@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Whenever the LCDC is to be started or stopped, a board callback is checked for existence and invoked. Prior to the invokation, the callback's module lock is also acquired, to be released once the callback returns. However, the order of testing makes it possible for the lock to be acquired and not released in case the callback does not exist. This patch reorders the tests to prevent this particular case.

Thanks for pointing out that I'd missed these, Vivek. Previous commit "cfq-iosched: Don't set active queue in preempt" wrongly cleared stats for preempting queues when it shouldn't have, because when we choose a queue to preempt, it still isn't necessarily scheduled next.

And the reason being that after dropping the limits we don't reset the existing slice and do the rate calculation with new low rate and account the bios dispatched at high rate. To fix it, reset the slice upon rate change. https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/10/298 Another problem with very high limit is that we never queued the bio on throtl service tree. That means we kept on extending the group slice but never trimmed it. Fix that also by regulary trimming the slice even if bio is not being queued up.

When we flush the on-stack plugs, right now we don't do any checks to see if potential merge candidates could be utilized. Correct this by adding a new insert variant, ELEVATOR_INSERT_SORT_MERGE. It works just ELEVATOR_INSERT_SORT, but first checks whether we can merge with an existing request before doing the insertion (if we fail merging). This fixes a regression with multiple processes issuing IO that can be merged. Thanks to Shaohua Li <shaohua.li@intel.com> for testing and fixing an accounting bug.

For version 2, I took Vivek's advice and made sure we update the group weight from cfq_group_service_tree_add(). If a weight was updated while a group is on the service tree, the calculation for the total weight of the service tree can be adjusted improperly, which either leads to bad service tree weights, or potentially crashes (if total_weight becomes 0). This patch defers updates to the weight until a group is off the service tree.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the plugging now being explicitly controlled by the submitter, callers need not pass down unplugging hints to the block layer. If they want to unplug, it's because they manually plugged on their own - in which case, they should just unplug at will. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code has been converted over to the new explicit on-stack plugging, and delay users have been converted to use the new API for that.

| | * | | block: initial patch for on-stack per-task pluggingJens Axboe2011-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for creating a queuing context outside of the queue itself. This enables us to batch up pieces of IO before grabbing the block device queue lock and submitting them to the IO scheduler. The context is created on the stack of the process and assigned in the task structure, so that we can auto-unplug it if we hit a schedule event. The current queue plugging happens implicitly if IO is submitted to an empty device, yet callers have to remember to unplug that IO when they are going to wait for it. This is an ugly API and has caused bugs in the past. Additionally, it requires hacks in the vm (->sync_page() callback) to handle that logic. By switching to an explicit plugging scheme we make the API a lot nicer and can get rid of the ->sync_page() hack in the vm. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>
