2014-12-08f2fs: do retry operations with cond_reschedJaegeuk Kim
This patch revists retrial paths in f2fs. The basic idea is to use cond_resched instead of retrying from the very early stage. Suggested-by: Gu Zheng <guz.fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> Reviewed-by: Chao Yu <chao2.yu@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org>
2014-12-08workqueue: allow rescuer thread to do more work.NeilBrown
When there is serious memory pressure, all workers in a pool could be blocked, and a new thread cannot be created because it requires memory allocation. In this situation a WQ_MEM_RECLAIM workqueue will wake up the rescuer thread to do some work. The rescuer will only handle requests that are already on ->worklist. If max_requests is 1, that means it will handle a single request. The rescuer will be woken again in 100ms to handle another max_requests requests. I've seen a machine (running a 3.0 based "enterprise" kernel) with thousands of requests queued for xfslogd, which has a max_requests of 1, and is needed for retiring all 'xfs' write requests. When one of the worker pools gets into this state, it progresses extremely slowly and possibly never recovers (only waited an hour or two). With this patch we leave a pool_workqueue on mayday list until it is clearly no longer in need of assistance. This allows all requests to be handled in a timely fashion. We keep each pool_workqueue on the mayday list until need_to_create_worker() is false, and no work for this workqueue is found in the pool. I have tested this in combination with a (hackish) patch which forces all work items to be handled by the rescuer thread. In that context it significantly improves performance. A similar patch for a 3.0 kernel significantly improved performance on a heavy work load. Thanks to Jan Kara for some design ideas, and to Dongsu Park for some comments and testing. tj: Inverted the lock order between wq_mayday_lock and pool->lock with a preceding patch and simplified this patch. Added comment and updated changelog accordingly. Dongsu spotted missing get_pwq() in the simplified code.

2014-12-08workqueue: invert the order between pool->lock and wq_mayday_lockTejun Heo
Currently, pool->lock nests inside pool->lock. There's no inherent reason for this order. The only place where the two locks are held together is pool_mayday_timeout() and it just got decided that way. This nesting order turns out to complicate things with the planned rescuer_thread() update. Let's invert them. This doesn't cause any behavior differences.

2014-12-08blk-mq: re-check for available tags after running the hardware queueJens Axboe
If we run out of tags and have to sleep, we run the hardware queue to kick pending IO into gear. During that run, we may have completed requests, so re-check if we have free tags before going to sleep. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

Avoid that if there are fewer hardware queues than CPU threads that bt_get() can hang. The symptoms of the hang were as follows: * All tags allocated for a particular hardware queue. * (nr_tags) pending commands for that hardware queue. * No pending commands for the software queues associated with that hardware queue.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound into for-linus ASoC: Updates for v3.19 Lots and lots of changes this time around, the usual set of driver updates and a huge bulk of cleanups from Lars-Peter. Probably the most interesting thing for most users is the Intel driver updates which will (with some more machine integration work) enable support for newer x86 laptops. - Conversion of AC'97 drivers to use regmap, bringing us closer to the removal of the ASoC level I/O code. - Clean up a lot of old drivers that were open coding things that have subsequently been implemented in the core. - Some DAPM performance improvements. - Removal of the now seldom used CODEC mutex. - Lots of updates for the newer Intel SoC support, including support for the DSP and some Cherrytrail and Braswell machine drivers. - Support for Samsung boards using rt5631 as the CODEC. - Removal of the obsolete AFEB9260 machine driver. - Driver support for the TI TS3A227E headset driver used in some Chrombeooks.

git commit 8461b63ca01d125a245a0d0fb4821ea0656e5053 "s390: translate cputime magic constants to macros" introduce a built error for 31-bit: kernel/built-in.o: In function `posix_cpu_timer_set': posix-cpu-timers.c:(.text+0x2a8cc): undefined reference to `__udivdi3' The original code is actually broken for 31-bit and has been corrected by the above commit by forcing the compiler to use 64-bit arithmetic through the CPUTIME_PER_USEC define. To fix the compile error replace the 64-bit division with a call to __div(). Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
