2011-08-03gro: Only reset frag0 when skb can be pulledHerbert Xu
commit 17dd759c67f21e34f2156abcf415e1f60605a188 upstream. Currently skb_gro_header_slow unconditionally resets frag0 and frag0_len. However, when we can't pull on the skb this leaves the GRO fields in an inconsistent state. This patch fixes this by only resetting those fields after the pskb_may_pull test.

2011-07-08NLM: Don't hang forever on NLM unlock requestsTrond Myklebust
commit 0b760113a3a155269a3fba93a409c640031dd68f upstream. If the NLM daemon is killed on the NFS server, we can currently end up hanging forever on an 'unlock' request, instead of aborting. Basically, if the rpcbind request fails, or the server keeps returning garbage, we really want to quit instead of retrying.

2011-07-08FS-Cache: Add a helper to bulk uncache pages on an inodeDavid Howells
commit c902ce1bfb40d8b049bd2319b388b4b68b04bc27 upstream. Add an FS-Cache helper to bulk uncache pages on an inode. This will only work for the circumstance where the pages in the cache correspond 1:1 with the pages attached to an inode's page cache. This is required for CIFS and NFS: When disabling inode cookie, we were returning the cookie and setting cifsi->fscache to NULL but failed to invalidate any previously mapped pages. This resulted in "Bad page state" errors and manifested in other kind of errors when running fsstress. Fix it by uncaching mapped pages when we disable the inode cookie. This patch should fix the following oops and "Bad page state" errors seen during fsstress testing. ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at fs/cachefiles/namei.c:201! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Pid: 5, comm: kworker/u:0 Not tainted 2.6.38.7-30.fc15.x86_64 #1 Bochs Bochs RIP: 0010: cachefiles_walk_to_object+0x436/0x745 [cachefiles] RSP: 0018:ffff88002ce6dd00 EFLAGS: 00010282 RAX: ffff88002ef165f0 RBX: ffff88001811f500 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000100 RDI: 0000000000000282 RBP: ffff88002ce6dda0 R08: 0000000000000100 R09: ffffffff81b3a300 R10: 0000ffff00066c0a R11: 0000000000000003 R12: ffff88002ae54840 R13: ffff88002ae54840 R14: ffff880029c29c00 R15: ffff88001811f4b0 FS: 00007f394dd32720(0000) GS:ffff88002ef00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: 00007fffcb62ddf8 CR3: 000000001825f000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process kworker/u:0 (pid: 5, threadinfo ffff88002ce6c000, task ffff88002ce55cc0) Stack: 0000000000000246 ffff88002ce55cc0 ffff88002ce6dd58 ffff88001815dc00 ffff8800185246c0 ffff88001811f618 ffff880029c29d18 ffff88001811f380 ffff88002ce6dd50 ffffffff814757e4 ffff88002ce6dda0 ffffffff8106ac56 Call Trace: cachefiles_lookup_object+0x78/0xd4 [cachefiles] fscache_lookup_object+0x131/0x16d [fscache] fscache_object_work_func+0x1bc/0x669 [fscache] process_one_work+0x186/0x298 worker_thread+0xda/0x15d kthread+0x84/0x8c kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 RIP cachefiles_walk_to_object+0x436/0x745 [cachefiles] ---[ end trace 1d481c9af1804caa ]--- I tested the uncaching by the following means: (1) Create a big file on my NFS server (104857600 bytes).

2011-07-08PM: Fix async resume following suspend failureAlan Stern
commit 6d0e0e84f66d32c33511984dd3badd32364b863c upstream. The PM core doesn't handle suspend failures correctly when it comes to asynchronously suspended devices. These devices are moved onto the dpm_suspended_list as soon as the corresponding async thread is started up, and they remain on the list even if they fail to suspend or the sleep transition is cancelled before they get suspended. As a result, when the PM core unwinds the transition, it tries to resume the devices even though they were never suspended. This patch (as1474) fixes the problem by adding a new "is_suspended" flag to dev_pm_info. Devices are resumed only if the flag is set. [rjw: * Moved the dev->power.is_suspended check into device_resume(), because we need to complete dev->power.completion and clear dev->power.is_prepared too for devices whose dev->power.is_suspended flags are unset. * Fixed __device_suspend() to avoid setting dev->power.is_suspended if async_error is different from zero.] Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Commit b0b0c0a26e84 "nfsd: add proc file listing kernel's gss_krb5 enctypes" added an nunnecessary dependency of nfsd on the auth_rpcgss module.

commit b5199515c25cca622495eb9c6a8a1d275e775088 upstream. The clocksource watchdog code is interruptible and it has been observed that this can trigger false positives which disable the TSC. The reason is that an interrupt storm or a long running interrupt handler between the read of the watchdog source and the read of the TSC brings the two far enough apart that the delta is larger than the unstable treshold. Move both reads into a short interrupt disabled region to avoid that.

2011-06-23usb-storage: redo incorrect readsAlan Stern
commit 21c13a4f7bc185552c4b402b792c3bbb9aa69df0 upstream. Some USB mass-storage devices have bugs that cause them not to handle the first READ(10) command they receive correctly. The Corsair Padlock v2 returns completely bogus data for its first read (possibly it returns the data in encrypted form even though the device is supposed to be unlocked). The Feiya SD/SDHC card reader fails to complete the first READ(10) command after it is plugged in or after a new card is inserted, returning a status code that indicates it thinks the command was invalid, which prevents the kernel from retrying the read. Since the first read of a new device or a new medium is for the partition sector, the kernel is unable to retrieve the device's partition table. Users have to manually issue an "hdparm -z" or "blockdev --rereadpt" command before they can access the device. This patch (as1470) works around the problem. It adds a new quirk flag, US_FL_INVALID_READ10, indicating that the first READ(10) should always be retried immediately, as should any failing READ(10) commands (provided the preceding READ(10) command succeeded, to avoid getting stuck in a loop). The patch also adds appropriate unusual_devs entries containing the new flag.

2011-06-03idle governor: Avoid lock acquisition to read pm_qos before entering idleTim Chen
commit 333c5ae9948194428fe6c5ef5c088304fc98263b upstream. Thanks to the reviews and comments by Rafael, James, Mark and Andi. Here's version 2 of the patch incorporating your comments and also some update to my previous patch comments. I noticed that before entering idle state, the menu idle governor will look up the current pm_qos target value according to the list of qos requests received. This look up currently needs the acquisition of a lock to access the list of qos requests to find the qos target value, slowing down the entrance into idle state due to contention by multiple cpus to access this list. The contention is severe when there are a lot of cpus waking and going into idle. For example, for a simple workload that has 32 pair of processes ping ponging messages to each other, where 64 cpu cores are active in test system, I see the following profile with 37.82% of cpu cycles spent in contention of pm_qos_lock: - 37.82% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave - _raw_spin_lock_irqsave - 95.65% pm_qos_request menu_select cpuidle_idle_call - cpu_idle 99.98% start_secondary A better approach will be to cache the updated pm_qos target value so reading it does not require lock acquisition as in the patch below. With this patch the contention for pm_qos_lock is removed and I saw a 2.2X increase in throughput for my message passing workload.

2011-06-03seqlock: Don't smp_rmb in seqlock reader spin loopMilton Miller
commit 5db1256a5131d3b133946fa02ac9770a784e6eb2 upstream. Move the smp_rmb after cpu_relax loop in read_seqlock and add ACCESS_ONCE to make sure the test and return are consistent. A multi-threaded core in the lab didn't like the update from 2.6.35 to 2.6.36, to the point it would hang during boot when multiple threads were active. Bisection showed af5ab277ded04bd9bc6b048c5a2f0e7d70ef0867 (clockevents: Remove the per cpu tick skew) as the culprit and it is supported with stack traces showing xtime_lock waits including tick_do_update_jiffies64 and/or update_vsyscall. Experimentation showed the combination of cpu_relax and smp_rmb was significantly slowing the progress of other threads sharing the core, and this patch is effective in avoiding the hang. A theory is the rmb is affecting the whole core while the cpu_relax is causing a resource rebalance flush, together they cause an interfernce cadance that is unbroken when the seqlock reader has interrupts disabled. At first I was confused why the refactor in 3c22cd5709e8143444a6d08682a87f4c57902df3 (kernel: optimise seqlock) didn't affect this patch application, but after some study that affected seqcount not seqlock. The new seqcount was not factored back into the seqlock. I defer that the future. While the removal of the timer interrupt offset created contention for the xtime lock while a cpu does the additonal work to update the system clock, the seqlock implementation with the tight rmb spin loop goes back much further, and is just waiting for the right trigger.

2011-06-03x86, efi: Retain boot service code until after switching to virtual modeMatthew Garrett
commit 916f676f8dc016103f983c7ec54c18ecdbb6e349 upstream. UEFI stands for "Unified Extensible Firmware Interface", where "Firmware" is an ancient African word meaning "Why do something right when you can do it so wrong that children will weep and brave adults will cower before you", and "UEI" is Celtic for "We missed DOS so we burned it into your ROMs". The UEFI specification provides for runtime services (ie, another way for the operating system to be forced to depend on the firmware) and we rely on these for certain trivial tasks such as setting up the bootloader. But some hardware fails to work if we attempt to use these runtime services from physical mode, and so we have to switch into virtual mode. So far so dreadful. The specification makes it clear that the operating system is free to do whatever it wants with boot services code after ExitBootServices() has been called. SetVirtualAddressMap() can't be called until ExitBootServices() has been. So, obviously, a whole bunch of EFI implementations call into boot services code when we do that. Since we've been charmingly naive and trusted that the specification may be somehow relevant to the real world, we've already stuffed a picture of a penguin or something in that address space. And just to make things more entertaining, we've also marked it non-executable. This patch allocates the boot services regions during EFI init and makes sure that they're executable. Then, after SetVirtualAddressMap(), it discards them and everyone lives happily ever after. Except for the ones who have to work on EFI, who live sad lives haunted by the knowledge that someone's eventually going to write yet another firmware specification.

2011-06-03pata_cm64x: fix boot crash on pariscJames Bottomley
commit 9281b16caac1276817b77033c5b8a1f5ca30102c upstream. The old IDE cmd64x checks the status of the CNTRL register to see if the ports are enabled before probing them. pata_cmd64x doesn't do this, which causes a HPMC on parisc when it tries to poke at the secondary port because apparently the BAR isn't wired up (and a non-responding piece of memory causes a HPMC). Fix this by porting the CNTRL register port detection logic from IDE cmd64x. In addition, following converns from Alan Cox, add a check to see if a mobility electronics bridge is the immediate parent and forgo the check if it is (prevents problems on hotplug controllers).

Fix this by enabling the feature by default for stacking drivers and clearing it for low-level drivers. Incorporating a device that does not support dzd will then cause the feature to be disabled in the stacking driver. Also ensure that the maximum discard value does not overflow when exported in sysfs and return 0 in the alignment and dzd fields for devices that don't support discard.

2011-06-03block: hold queue if flush is running for non-queueable flush driveshaohua.li@intel.com
commit 3ac0cc4508709d42ec9aa351086c7d38bfc0660c upstream. In some drives, flush requests are non-queueable. When flush request is running, normal read/write requests can't run. If block layer dispatches such request, driver can't handle it and requeue it. Tejun suggested we can hold the queue when flush is running. This can avoid unnecessary requeue. Also this can improve performance. For example, we have request flush1, write1, flush 2. flush1 is dispatched, then queue is hold, write1 isn't inserted to queue. After flush1 is finished, flush2 will be dispatched. Since disk cache is already clean, flush2 will be finished very soon, so looks like flush2 is folded to flush1. In my test, the queue holding completely solves a regression introduced by commit 53d63e6b0dfb95882ec0219ba6bbd50cde423794: block: make the flush insertion use the tail of the dispatch list It's not a preempt type request, in fact we have to insert it behind requests that do specify INSERT_FRONT. which causes about 20% regression running a sysbench fileio workload.

If two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get overwritten. This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to call of_match_device() directly instead. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>
2011-05-18of: fix race when matching driversMilton Miller
If two drivers are probing devices at the same time, both will write their match table result to the dev->of_match cache at the same time. Only write the result if the device matches. In a thread titled "SBus devices sometimes detected, sometimes not", Meelis reported his SBus hme was not detected about 50% of the time. From the debug suggested by Grant it was obvious another driver matched some devices between the call to match the hme and the hme discovery failling.

FS_COW_FL and FS_NOCOW_FL were newly introduced to control per file COW in btrfs, but FS_NOCOW_FL is sufficient. The fact is we don't have corresponding BTRFS_INODE_COW flag. COW is default, and FS_NOCOW_FL can be used to switch off COW for a single file. If we mount btrfs with nodatacow, a newly created file will be set with the FS_NOCOW_FL flag. So to turn on COW for it, we can just clear the FS_NOCOW_FL flag. Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

2011-05-12fbcon: add lifetime refcount to opened frame buffersLinus Torvalds
This just adds the refcount and the new registration lock logic. It does not (for example) actually change the read/write/ioctl routines to actually use the frame buffer that was opened: those function still end up alway susing whatever the current frame buffer is at the time of the call. Without this, if something holds the frame buffer open over a framebuffer switch, the close() operation after the switch will access a fb_info that has been free'd by the unregistering of the old frame buffer. (The read/write/ioctl operations will normally not cause problems, because they will - illogically - pick up the new fbcon instead. But a switch that happens just as one of those is going on might see problems too, the window is just much smaller: one individual op rather than the whole open-close sequence.) This use-after-free is apparently fairly easily triggered by the Ubuntu 11.04 boot sequence.

2011-05-09Don't lock guardpage if the stack is growing upMikulas Patocka
Linux kernel excludes guard page when performing mlock on a VMA with down-growing stack. However, some architectures have up-growing stack and locking the guard page should be excluded in this case too. This patch fixes lvm2 on PA-RISC (and possibly other architectures with up-growing stack). lvm2 calculates number of used pages when locking and when unlocking and reports an internal error if the numbers mismatch. [ Patch changed fairly extensively to also fix /proc/<pid>/maps for the grows-up case, and to move things around a bit to clean it all up and share the infrstructure with the /proc bits.

2011-05-04slub: Fix the lockless code on 32-bit platforms with no 64-bit cmpxchgThomas Gleixner
The SLUB allocator use of the cmpxchg_double logic was wrong: it actually needs the irq-safe one. That happens automatically when we use the native unlocked 'cmpxchg8b' instruction, but when compiling the kernel for older x86 CPUs that do not support that instruction, we fall back to the generic emulation code. And if you don't specify that you want the irq-safe version, the generic code ends up just open-coding the cmpxchg8b equivalent without any protection against interrupts or preemption. Which definitely doesn't work for SLUB. This was reported by Werner Landgraf <w.landgraf@ru.ru>, who saw instability with his distro-kernel that was compiled to support pretty much everything under the sun. Most big Linux distributions tend to compile for PPro and later, and would never have noticed this problem. This also fixes the prototypes for the irqsafe cmpxchg_double functions to use 'bool' like they should. [ Btw, that whole "generic code defaults to no protection" design just sounds stupid - if the code needs no protection, there is no reason to use "cmpxchg_double" to begin with. So we should probably just remove the unprotected version entirely as pointless. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Reported-and-tested-by: werner <w.landgraf@ru.ru> Acked-and-tested-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Acked-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.LFD.2.02.1105041539050.3005@ionos Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
