* tty: Fix unbalanced BKL handling in error pathAlan Cox2010-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Arnd noted: After the "retry_open:" label, we first get the tty_mutex and then the BKL. However a the end of tty_open, we jump back to retry_open with the BKL still held. If we run into this case, the tty_open function will be left with the BKL still held.

* | hvc_console: Fix race between hvc_close and hvc_removeAnton Blanchard2010-04-07

Right now we get a kref every call to hvc_open: if (hp->count++ > 0) { tty_kref_get(tty); <----- here spin_unlock_irqrestore(&hp->lock, flags); hvc_kick(); return 0; } /* else count == 0 */ tty->driver_data = hp; hp->tty = tty_kref_get(tty); <------ or here if hp->count was 0 But hvc_close has: tty_kref_get(tty); if (--hp->count == 0) { ... /* Put the ref obtained in hvc_open() */ tty_kref_put(tty); ... } tty_kref_put(tty); Since the outside kref get/put balance we only do a single kref_put when count reaches 0. The patch below changes things to call tty_kref_put once for every hvc_close call, and with that my machine boots fine.

We now call through generic_file_aio_write -> generic_write_sync -> vfs_fsync_range. vfs_fsync_range has: if (!fop || !fop->fsync) { ret = -EINVAL; goto out; } But drivers/char/raw.c doesn't set an fsync method. We have two options: fix it or remove the raw driver completely. I'm happy to do either, the fact this has been broken for so long suggests it is rarely used. The patch below adds an fsync method to the raw driver. My knowledge of the block layer is pretty sketchy so this could do with a once over. If we instead decide to remove the raw driver, this patch might still be useful as a backport to 2.6.33 and 2.6.32.

* / include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-30
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

One side effect of it is that num_k8_northbridges is not initialized anymore if not explicitly called. This resulted in uninitialized pointers in <arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c:amd_calc_l3_indices()>, for example, which uses the num_k8_northbridges thing through node_to_k8_nb_misc(). Fix that through an initcall that runs right after the PCI subsystem and does all the scanning. Then, remove initialization in gart_iommu_init() which is a rootfs_initcall and we're running before that. What is more, since num_k8_northbridges is being used in other places beside GART IOMMU, include it whenever we add AMD CPU support. The previous dependency chain in kconfig contained K8_NB depends on AGP_AMD64|GART_IOMMU which was clearly incorrect. The more natural way in terms of hardware dependency should be AGP_AMD64|GART_IOMMU depends on K8_NB depends on CPU_SUP_AMD && PCI. Make it so Number One!

Drop one initialization.

This adds a way to tune the CPU used by kipmid to help in those cases. By setting kipmid_max_busy_us to a value between 100 and 500, it is possible to bring down kipmid CPU load to practically 0 without loosing too much ipmi throughput performance. Not setting the value, or setting the value to zero, operation is unaffected.

|/ / / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The device driver must allocate memory for IUCV buffers with GFP_DMA, because IUCV cannot address memory above 2GB (31bit addresses only). Because the IUCV ignores the higher bits of the address, sending and receiving IUCV data with this driver might cause memory corruptions.
