| * libata: fix ATAPI drainingTejun Heo2007-12-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With ATAPI transfer chunk size properly programmed, libata PIO HSM should be able to handle full spurious data chunks. Also, it's a good idea to suppress trailing data warning for misc ATAPI commands as there can be many of them per command - for example, if the chunk size is 16 and the drive tries to transfer 510 bytes, there can be 31 trailing data messages. This patch makes the following updates to libata ATAPI PIO HSM implementation. * Make it drain full spurious chunks. * Suppress trailing data warning message for misc commands. * Put limit on how many bytes can be drained. * If odd, round up consumed bytes and the number of bytes to be drained. This gets the number of bytes to drain right for drivers which do 16bit PIO. This patch is partial backport of improve-ATAPI-data-xfer patchset pending for #upstream.

| * libata-acpi: implement dev->gtf_cache and evaluate _GTF right after _STM ↵Tejun Heo2007-12-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | during resume On certain implementations, _GTF evaluation depends on preceding _STM and both can be pretty picky about the configuration. Using _GTM result cached during controller initialization satisfies the most neurotic _STM implementation. However, libata evaluates _GTF after reset during device configuration and the hardware state can be different from what _GTF expects and can cause evaluation failure. This patch adds dev->gtf_cache and updates ata_dev_get_GTF() such that it uses the cached value if available. Cache is cleared with a call to ata_acpi_clear_gtf(). Because for SATA ACPI nodes _GTF must be evaluated after _SDD which can't be done till IDENTIFY is complete, _GTF caching from ata_acpi_on_resume() is used only for IDE ACPI nodes.

| * libata-acpi: implement and use ata_acpi_init_gtm()Tejun Heo2007-12-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | _GTM fetches currently configured transfer mode while _STM configures controller according to _GTM parameter and prepares transfer mode configuration TFs for _GTF. In many cases _GTM and _STM implementations are quite brittle and can't cope with configuration changed by libata. libata does not depend on ATA ACPI to configure devices. The only reason libata performs _GTM and _STM are to make _GTF evaluation succeed and libata also doesn't care about how _GTF TFs configure transfer mode. It overrides that configuration anyway, so from libata's POV, it doesn't matter what value is feeded to _STM as long as evaluation succeeds for _STM and following _GTF. This patch adds dev->__acpi_init_gtm and store initial _GTM values on host initialization before modified by reset and mode configuration. If the field is valid, ata_acpi_init_gtm() returns pointer to the saved _GTM structure; otherwise, NULL. This saved value is used for _STM during resume and peek at BIOS/firmware programmed initial timing for later use. The accessor is there to make building w/o ACPI easy as dev->__acpi_init doesn't exist if ACPI is not enabled. On driver detach, the initial BIOS configuration is restored by executing _STM with the initial _GTM values such that the next driver can also use the initial BIOS configured values.

* | hugetlb: introduce nr_overcommit_hugepages sysctlNishanth Aravamudan2007-12-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | hugetlb: introduce nr_overcommit_hugepages sysctl While examining the code to support /proc/sys/vm/hugetlb_dynamic_pool, I became convinced that having a boolean sysctl was insufficient: 1) To support per-node control of hugepages, I have previously submitted patches to add a sysfs attribute related to nr_hugepages. However, with a boolean global value and per-mount quota enforcement constraining the dynamic pool, adding corresponding control of the dynamic pool on a per-node basis seems inconsistent to me. 2) Administration of the hugetlb dynamic pool with multiple hugetlbfs mount points is, arguably, more arduous than it needs to be. Each quota would need to be set separately, and the sum would need to be monitored. To ease the administration, and to help make the way for per-node control of the static & dynamic hugepage pool, I added a separate sysctl, nr_overcommit_hugepages. This value serves as a high watermark for the overall hugepage pool, while nr_hugepages serves as a low watermark. The boolean sysctl can then be removed, as the condition nr_overcommit_hugepages > 0 indicates the same administrative setting as hugetlb_dynamic_pool == 1 Quotas still serve as local enforcement of the size of the pool on a per-mount basis. A few caveats: 1) There is a race whereby the global surplus huge page counter is incremented before a hugepage has allocated. Another process could then try grow the pool, and fail to convert a surplus huge page to a normal huge page and instead allocate a fresh huge page. I believe this is benign, as no memory is leaked (the actual pages are still tracked correctly) and the counters won't go out of sync. 2) Shrinking the static pool while a surplus is in effect will allow the number of surplus huge pages to exceed the overcommit value. As long as this condition holds, however, no more surplus huge pages will be allowed on the system until one of the two sysctls are increased sufficiently, or the surplus huge pages go out of use and are freed. Successfully tested on x86_64 with the current libhugetlbfs snapshot, modified to use the new sysctl.

* / [NETFILTER]: bridge: fix missing link layer headers on outgoing routed packetsPatrick McHardy2007-12-14
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As reported by Damien Thebault, the double POSTROUTING hook invocation fix caused outgoing packets routed between two bridges to appear without a link-layer header. The reason for this is that we're skipping the br_nf_post_routing hook for routed packets now and don't save the original link layer header, but nevertheless tries to restore it on output, causing corruption. The root cause for this is that skb->nf_bridge has no clearly defined lifetime and is used to indicate all kind of things, but that is quite complicated to fix. For now simply don't touch these packets and handle them like packets from any other device.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add new hash for balance-xor and 802.3ad modes. Originally submitted by "Glenn Griffin" <ggriffin.kernel@gmail.com>; modified by Jay Vosburgh to move setting of hash policy out of line, tweak the documentation update and add version update to 3.2.2. Glenn's original comment follows: Included is a patch for a new xmit_hash_policy for the bonding driver that selects slaves based on MAC and IP information. This is a middle ground between what currently exists in the layer2 only policy and the layer3+4 policy. This policy strives to be fully 802.3ad compliant by transmitting every packet of any particular flow over the same link. As documented the layer3+4 policy is not fully compliant for extreme cases such as ip fragmentation, so this policy is a nice compromise for environments that require full compliance but desire more than the layer2 only policy.

After trying his test program on the latest git from mainline, I found the bug was there too. The bug he was seeing that his test program showed, was that if one were to do a "Ctrl-Z" on a process that was in the pthread_cond_timedwait, and then did a "bg" on that process, it would return with a "-ETIMEDOUT" but early. That is, the timer would go off early. Looking into this, I found the source of the problem. And it is a rather nasty bug at that. Here's the relevant code from kernel/futex.c: (not in order in the file) [...] smlinkage long sys_futex(u32 __user *uaddr, int op, u32 val, struct timespec __user *utime, u32 __user *uaddr2, u32 val3) { struct timespec ts; ktime_t t, *tp = NULL; u32 val2 = 0; int cmd = op & FUTEX_CMD_MASK; if (utime && (cmd == FUTEX_WAIT || cmd == FUTEX_LOCK_PI)) { if (copy_from_user(&ts, utime, sizeof(ts)) != 0) return -EFAULT; if (!timespec_valid(&ts)) return -EINVAL; t = timespec_to_ktime(ts); if (cmd == FUTEX_WAIT) t = ktime_add(ktime_get(), t); tp = &t; } [...] return do_futex(uaddr, op, val, tp, uaddr2, val2, val3); } [...] long do_futex(u32 __user *uaddr, int op, u32 val, ktime_t *timeout, u32 __user *uaddr2, u32 val2, u32 val3) { int ret; int cmd = op & FUTEX_CMD_MASK; struct rw_semaphore *fshared = NULL; if (!(op & FUTEX_PRIVATE_FLAG)) fshared = &current->mm->mmap_sem; switch (cmd) { case FUTEX_WAIT: ret = futex_wait(uaddr, fshared, val, timeout); [...] static int futex_wait(u32 __user *uaddr, struct rw_semaphore *fshared, u32 val, ktime_t *abs_time) { [...] struct restart_block *restart; restart = &current_thread_info()->restart_block; restart->fn = futex_wait_restart; restart->arg0 = (unsigned long)uaddr; restart->arg1 = (unsigned long)val; restart->arg2 = (unsigned long)abs_time; restart->arg3 = 0; if (fshared) restart->arg3 |= ARG3_SHARED; return -ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK; [...] static long futex_wait_restart(struct restart_block *restart) { u32 __user *uaddr = (u32 __user *)restart->arg0; u32 val = (u32)restart->arg1; ktime_t *abs_time = (ktime_t *)restart->arg2; struct rw_semaphore *fshared = NULL; restart->fn = do_no_restart_syscall; if (restart->arg3 & ARG3_SHARED) fshared = &current->mm->mmap_sem; return (long)futex_wait(uaddr, fshared, val, abs_time); } So when the futex_wait is interrupt by a signal we break out of the hrtimer code and set up or return from signal. This code does not return back to userspace, so we set up a RESTARTBLOCK. The bug here is that we save the "abs_time" which is a pointer to the stack variable "ktime_t t" from sys_futex. This returns and unwinds the stack before we get to call our signal. On return from the signal we go to futex_wait_restart, where we update all the parameters for futex_wait and call it. But here we have a problem where abs_time is no longer valid. I verified this with print statements, and sure enough, what abs_time was set to ends up being garbage when we get to futex_wait_restart. The solution I did to solve this (with input from Linus Torvalds) was to add unions to the restart_block to allow system calls to use the restart with specific parameters. This way the futex code now saves the time in a 64bit value in the restart block instead of storing it on the stack. Note: I'm a bit nervious to add "linux/types.h" and use u32 and u64 in thread_info.h, when there's a #ifdef __KERNEL__ just below that. Not sure what that is there for. If this turns out to be a problem, I've tested this with using "unsigned int" for u32 and "unsigned long long" for u64 and it worked just the same. I'm using u32 and u64 just to be consistent with what the futex code uses.

Since this is just a hint address this patch will round such a hint address above mmap_min_addr. gcj was found to try to be very frugal with vm usage and give hint addresses in the 8k-32k range. Without this patch all such programs failed and with the patch they happily get a higher address. This patch is wrappad in CONFIG_SECURITY since mmap_min_addr doesn't exist without it and there would be no security check possible no matter what.

* | jbd: Fix assertion failure in fs/jbd/checkpoint.cJan Kara2007-12-05
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before we start committing a transaction, we call __journal_clean_checkpoint_list() to cleanup transaction's written-back buffers. If this call happens to remove all of them (and there were already some buffers), __journal_remove_checkpoint() will decide to free the transaction because it isn't (yet) a committing transaction and soon we fail some assertion - the transaction really isn't ready to be freed :). We change the check in __journal_remove_checkpoint() to free only a transaction in T_FINISHED state. The locking there is subtle though (as everywhere in JBD ;(). We use j_list_lock to protect the check and a subsequent call to __journal_drop_transaction() and do the same in the end of journal_commit_transaction() which is the only place where a transaction can get to T_FINISHED state. Probably I'm too paranoid here and such locking is not really necessary - checkpoint lists are processed only from log_do_checkpoint() where a transaction must be already committed to be processed or from __journal_clean_checkpoint_list() where kjournald itself calls it and thus transaction cannot change state either. Better be safe if something changes in future...

This feature would be useful if someone wants to group tasks only for accounting purpose and doesnt really want to exercise any control over their cpu consumption. The patch below reintroduces the feature. It is based on Paul Menage's original patch (Commit 62d0df64065e7c135d0002f069444fbdfc64768f), with these differences: - Removed load average information. I felt it needs more thought (esp to deal with SMP and virtualized platforms) and can be added for 2.6.25 after more discussions. - Convert group cpu usage to be nanosecond accurate (as rest of the cfs stats are) and invoke cpuacct_charge() from the respective scheduler classes - Make accounting scalable on SMP systems by splitting the usage counter to be per-cpu - Move the code from kernel/cpu_acct.c to kernel/sched.c (since the code is not big enough to warrant a new file and also this rightly needs to live inside the scheduler. Also things like accessing rq->lock while reading cpu usage becomes easier if the code lived in kernel/sched.c) The patch also modifies the cpu controller not to provide the same accounting information. Tested-by: Balbir Singh <balbir@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Tested the patches on top of 2.6.24-rc3. The patches work fine. Ran some simple tests like cpuspin (spin on the cpu), ran several tasks in the same group and timed them. Compared their time stamps with cpuacct.usage.

Currently things work but there are odd details visible to user space, even when we have a single network namespace. Since we do not cache proc_dir_entry dentries at the moment we can just modify ->lookup to return a different directory inode depending on the network namespace of the process looking at /proc/net, replacing the current technique of using a magic and fragile follow_link method. To accomplish that this patch: - introduces a shadow_proc method to allow different dentries to be returned from proc_lookup. - Removes the old /proc/net follow_link magic - Fixes a weakness in our not caching of proc generic dentries. As shadow_proc uses a task struct to decided which dentry to return we can go back later and fix the proc generic caching without modifying any code that uses the shadow_proc method.

UEFI2.0 spec deprecates Universal Graphics Adapter (UGA) protocol and only Graphics Output Protocol (GOP) is produced. Therefore, the boot loader needs to query the UEFI firmware with appropriate Output Protocol and pass the video information to the kernel. As a result of GOP protocol, an EFI framebuffer driver is needed for displaying console messages. The patch adds a EFI framebuffer driver. The EFI frame buffer driver in this patch is based on the Intel Mac framebuffer driver. The ELILO bootloader takes care of passing the video information as appropriate for EFI firmware. The framebuffer driver has been tested in i386 kernel and x86_64 kernel on EFI platform.
