* Linux 2.6.32-rc3v2.6.32-rc3Linus Torvalds2009-10-04
| | | | | | | I'm skipping -rc2 because the -rc1 Makefile mistakenly said -rc2, so in order to avoid confusion, I'm jumping from -rc1 to -rc3. That way, when 'uname' (or an oops report) says 2.6.32-rc2, there's no confusion about whether people perhaps meant -rc1 or -rc2.

| * ACPI: create Processor Aggregator Device driverShaohua Li2009-07-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ACPI 4.0 created the logical "processor aggregator device" as a mechinism for platforms to ask the OS to force otherwise busy processors to enter (power saving) idle. The intent is to lower power consumption to ride-out transient electrical and thermal emergencies, rather than powering off the server. On platforms that can save more power/performance via P-states, the platform will first exhaust P-states before forcing idle. However, the relative benefit of P-states vs. idle states is platform dependent, and thus this driver need not know or care about it. This driver does not use the kernel's CPU hot-plug mechanism because after the transient emergency is over, the system must be returned to its normal state, and hotplug would permanently break both cpusets and binding. So to force idle, the driver creates a power saving thread. The scheduler will migrate the thread to the preferred CPU. The thread has max priority and has SCHED_RR policy, so it can occupy one CPU. To save power, the thread will invoke the deep C-state entry instructions. To avoid starvation, the thread will sleep 5% of the time time for every second (current RT scheduler has threshold to avoid starvation, but if other CPUs are idle, the CPU can borrow CPU timer from other, which makes the mechanism not work here) Vaidyanathan Srinivasan has proposed scheduler enhancements to allow injecting idle time into the system. This driver doesn't depend on those enhancements, but could cut over to them when they are available. Peter Z. does not favor upstreaming this driver until the those scheduler enhancements are in place. However, we favor upstreaming this driver now because it is useful now, and can be enhanced over time.

The processors actually have T-states, so my kernel log ends up with 64 lines like: ACPI: Processor [CPU0] (supports xx throttling states) This is pretty useless clutter because - this info is already available after boot from /proc/acpi/processor/CPUnn/throttling - there's also an ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT() in processor_throttling.c that gives the same info on boot for anyone who *really* cares.

Moreover the _PRS acpi method says the irq is not shareable. In addition to this, in some cases, an additional write to the IO port has to be performed in order to properly decode the event received from the device. This generates another interrupt which may overlap with the previous one. In the future this is going to be important for properly decoding events.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This slowly ramps up the async queue depth based on the time passed since the sync IO, and doesn't allow async at all until a sync slice period has passed. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
| * | | | cfq-iosched: delay async IO dispatch, if sync IO was just doneVivek Goyal2009-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o Do not allow more than max_dispatch requests from an async queue, if some sync request has finished recently. This is in the hope that sync activity is still going on in the system and we might receive a sync request soon. Most likely from a sync queue which finished a request and we did not enable idling on it. Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
| * | | | cfq-iosched: add a knob for desktop interactivenessJens Axboe2009-10-02

The goal is to continue to improve on the latency side of things as it relates to interactiveness, keeping the questionable bits under this sysfs tunable so it would be easy for throughput-only people to turn off. Apart from adding the interactive sysfs knob, it also adds the behavioural change of allowing slice idling even if the hardware does tagged command queuing.

That means it is subject to the max_hw_sectors limitation of the HBA which is much lower than the size of a DISCARD request we can support. Add a separate max_discard_sectors tunable to limit the size for discard requests. We limit the max discard request size in bytes to 32bit as that is the limit for bio->bi_size. This could be much larger if we had a way to pass that information through the block layer. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

This makes it inappropriate for all but the most trivial translations of Linux's DISCARD operation to the block command set. Additionally adding a payload there makes the ownership of the bio backing unclear as it's now allocated by the device driver and not the submitter as usual. It is replaced with QUEUE_FLAG_DISCARD which is used to indicate whether the queue supports discard operations or not. blkdev_issue_discard now allocates a one-page, sector-length payload which is the right thing for the common ATA and SCSI implementations. The mtd implementation of prepare_discard_fn() is replaced with simply checking for the request being a discard. Largely based on a previous patch from Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx> which did the prepare_discard_fn but not the different payload allocation yet.

| * | | | swapfile: avoid NULL pointer dereference in swapon when s_bdev is NULLSuresh Jayaraman2009-10-01

Investigating further, the NULL pointer deference is due to the SSD device check/optimization in the swapon code that assumes s_bdev could never be NULL. inode->i_sb->s_bdev could be NULL in a few cases. For e.g. one such case is loopback NFS mount, there could be others as well. Fix this by ensuring s_bdev is not NULL before we try to deference s_bdev.
