* posix timers: discard SI_TIMER signals on execOleg Nesterov2008-05-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on Roland's patch. This approach was suggested by Austin Clements from the very beginning, and then by Linus. As Austin pointed out, the execing task can be killed by SI_TIMER signal because exec flushes the signal handlers, but doesn't discard the pending signals generated by posix timers. Perhaps not a bug, but people find this surprising.

* | md: restart recovery cleanly after device failure.NeilBrown2008-05-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we get any IO error during a recovery (rebuilding a spare), we abort the recovery and restart it. For RAID6 (and multi-drive RAID1) it may not be best to restart at the beginning: when multiple failures can be tolerated, the recovery may be able to continue and re-doing all that has already been done doesn't make sense. We already have the infrastructure to record where a recovery is up to and restart from there, but it is not being used properly. This is because: - We sometimes abort with MD_RECOVERY_ERR rather than just MD_RECOVERY_INTR, which causes the recovery not be be checkpointed. - We remove spares and then re-added them which loses important state information. The distinction between MD_RECOVERY_ERR and MD_RECOVERY_INTR really isn't needed. If there is an error, the relevant drive will be marked as Faulty, and that is enough to ensure correct handling of the error. So we first remove MD_RECOVERY_ERR, changing some of the uses of it to MD_RECOVERY_INTR. Then we cause the attempt to remove a non-faulty device from an array to fail (unless recovery is impossible as the array is too degraded). Then when remove_and_add_spares attempts to remove the devices on which recovery can continue, it will fail, they will remain in place, and recovery will continue on them as desired. Issue: If we are halfway through rebuilding a spare and another drive fails, and a new spare is immediately available, do we want to: 1/ complete the current rebuild, then go back and rebuild the new spare or 2/ restart the rebuild from the start and rebuild both devices in parallel. Both options can be argued for. The code currently takes option 2 as a/ this requires least code change b/ this results in a minimally-degraded array in minimal time.

* | md: allow parallel resync of md-devices.Bernd Schubert2008-05-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some configurations, a raid6 resync can be limited by CPU speed (Calculating P and Q and moving data) rather than by device speed. In these cases there is nothing to be gained byt serialising resync of arrays that share a device, and doing the resync in parallel can provide benefit. So add a sysfs tunable to flag an array as being allowed to resync in parallel with other arrays that use (a different part of) the same device.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An NFS_WRITE requires a set of RDMA_READ requests to fetch the write data from the client. There are two principal pieces of data that need to be tracked: the list of pages that comprise the completed RPC and the SGE of dma mapped pages to refer to this list of pages. Previously this whole bit was managed as a linked list of contexts with the context containing the page list buried in this list. This patch simplifies this processing by not keeping a linked list, but rather only a pionter from the last submitted RDMA_READ's context to the context that maps the set of pages that describe the RPC. This significantly simplifies this code path. SGE contexts are cleaned up inline in the DTO path instead of at read completion time. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>

The USB version of these don't need Numlock emulation, like the laptop (and Aluminium Wireless) do, as they have a proper keypad. This patch splits the Numlock emulation for Apple keyboards in a different quirk flag, so that it can be enabled for all the keyboards but the Aluminium USB ones. If the Numlock emulation is enabled for Aluminium USB keyboards, the JKL and UIO keys become the numeric pad, and the rest of the keyboard is disabled, included the key used to disable Numlock. Additionally, these keyboard should not have a Numlock at all, as the Numlock key is instead replaced by the 'Clear' key as usual for Apple USB keyboards.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I was hoping ATA_HORKAGE_NODMA | ATA_HORKAGE_SKIP_PM could keep it happy but no even this doesn't work under certain configurations and it's not like we can do anything useful with the cofig device anyway. Replace ATA_HORKAGE_SKIP_PM with ATA_HORKAGE_DISABLE and use it for the config device. This makes the device completely ignored by libata.

| * | | | libata: increase PMP register access timeout to 3sTejun Heo2008-05-19

This is no longer the case. One timeout will make all following accesses fail immediately. In rare cases both marvell and SIMG PMPs need almost a second. Bump it to 3s. While at it, rename it to SATA_PMP_RW_TIMEOUT. It's not specific to SCR access. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | Everybody wants to pass it a function pointer, and in fact, that is what you _must_ pass it for it to make sense (since it knows that ia64 and ppc64 use descriptors for function pointers and fetches the actual address from there). So don't make the argument be a 'unsigned long' and force everybody to add a cast. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

There's exactly one customer: v9fs_parse_options(). I believe it currently can't overflow its buffer, but that's not exactly obvious. The source string is a substing of the mount options. The kernel silently truncates those to PAGE_SIZE bytes, including the terminating zero. See compat_sys_mount() and do_mount(). The destination buffer is obtained from __getname(), which allocates from name_cachep, which is initialized by vfs_caches_init() for size PATH_MAX. We're safe as long as PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE. PATH_MAX is 4096. As far as I know, the smallest PAGE_SIZE is also 4096. Here's a patch that makes the code a bit more obviously correct. It doesn't depend on PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.

* | per_cpu: fix DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED for modulesEric Dumazet2008-05-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current module loader lookups ".data.percpu" ELF section to perform per_cpu relocation. But DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED() uses another section (".data.percpu.shared_aligned"), currently only handled in vmlinux.lds, not by module loader. To correct this problem, instead of adding logic into module loader, or using at build time a module.lds file for all arches to group ".data.percpu.shared_aligned" into ".data.percpu", just use ".data.percpu" for modules. Alignment requirements are correctly handled by ld and module loader.

Add a common hi/lo helper to avoid the shifting masking that is done to get the upper and lower nibbles of a byte value. Pull the pack_hex_byte helper from kgdb as it is opencoded many places in the tree that will be consolidated.
