2009-06-19perf_counter, x86: Improve interactions with fast-gupIngo Molnar
Improve a few details in perfcounter call-chain recording that makes use of fast-GUP: - Use ACCESS_ONCE() to observe the pte value. ptes are fundamentally racy and can be changed on another CPU, so we have to be careful about how we access them. The PAE branch is already careful with read-barriers - but the non-PAE and 64-bit side needs an ACCESS_ONCE() to make sure the pte value is observed only once. - make the checks a bit stricter so that we can feed it any kind of cra^H^H^H user-space input ;-) Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2009-06-19lib/checksum.c: fix endianess bugArnd Bergmann
The new generic checksum code has a small dependency on endianess and worked only on big-endian systems. I could not find a nice efficient way to express this, so I added an #ifdef. Using 'result += le16_to_cpu(*buff);' would have worked as well, but would be slightly less efficient on big-endian systems and IMHO would not be clearer. Also fix a bug that prevents this from working on 64-bit machines. If you have a 64-bit CPU and want to use the generic checksum code, you should probably do some more optimizations anyway, but at least the code should not break.

2009-06-19asm-generic: hook up new system callsArnd Bergmann
sys_rt_tgsigqueueinfo and sys_perf_counter_open have been added in 2.6.31, so hook them up in the generic unistd.h file. Since the file is now in the mainline kernel, we are no longer reordering the numbers but just add system calls at the end. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
2009-06-19asm-generic: list Arnd as asm-generic maintainerArnd Bergmann
I've modified about half the code in include/asm-generic now, and people start sending me patches for it, so I should probably take the formal responsibility for it. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
2009-06-19asm-generic: drop HARDIRQ_BITS definition from hardirq.hArnd Bergmann
Architechtures normally don't need to set a HARDIRQ_BITS unless they have hardcoded a specific value in assembly. This drops the definition from asm-generic/hardirq.h, which results in linux/hardirq.h setting its default of 10. Both the old default of 8 and the linux/hardirq.h default of 10 are sufficient because they only limit the number of nested hardirqs, and we normally run out of stack space much earlier than exceeding 256 or even 1024 nested interrupts.

2009-06-19asm-generic: uaccess: fix up local access_ok() usageMike Frysinger
There's no reason that I can see to use the short __access_ok() form directly when the access_ok() is clearer in intent and for most people, expands to the same C code (i.e. always specify the first field -- access type). Not all no-mmu systems lack memory protection, so the read/write could feasibly be checked. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
2009-06-19asm-generic: uaccess: add missing access_ok() check to strnlen_user()Mike Frysinger
The strnlen_user() function was missing a access_ok() check on the pointer given. We've had cases on Blackfin systems where test programs caused kernel crashes here because userspace passed up a NULL/-1 pointer and the kernel gladly attempted to run strlen() on it.

2009-06-19perf_counter: Simplify and fix task migration countingPeter Zijlstra
The task migrations counter was causing rare and hard to decypher memory corruptions under load. After a day of debugging and bisection we found that the problem was introduced with: 3f731ca: perf_counter: Fix cpu migration counter Turning them off fixes the crashes. Incidentally, the whole perf_counter_task_migration() logic can be done simpler as well, by injecting a proper sw-counter event. This cleanup also fixed the crashes. The precise failure mode is not completely clear yet, but we are clearly not unhappy about having a fix ;-) Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Corey Ashford <cjashfor@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2009-06-19perf_counter: Make callchain samples extensiblePeter Zijlstra
Before exposing upstream tools to a callchain-samples ABI, tidy it up to make it more extensible in the future: Use markers in the IP chain to denote context, use (u64)-1..-4095 range for these context markers because we use them for ERR_PTR(), so these addresses are unlikely to be mapped.

2009-06-19mv643xx_eth: fix unicast filter programming in promiscuous modePrabhanjan Sarnaik
The Unicast Promiscious Mode (UPM) bit in the mv643xx_eth port configuration register doesn't do exactly what its name would suggest: setting this bit merely enables reception of all unicast frames with a destination address that differs from our local MAC address in bits [47:4]. In particular, it doesn't have any effect on unicast frames with a destination address that matches our MAC address in bits [47:4] -- these will still be tested against the 16-entry unicast address filter table. Therefore, if the interface is set to promiscuous mode, just setting the unicast promiscuous bit isn't enough -- we need to set all filter bits in the unicast filter table to 1 as well.

2009-06-19be2net: Use MCC queue for cmds that may be called in BH contextSathya Perla
Currenlty multicast_set and promiscuous_config cmds -- that may be called in BH context -- use the blocking MCC mbox to post cmds. An mbox cmd is protected via a spin_lock(cmd_lock) and not spin_lock_bh() as it is undesirable to disable BHs while a blocking mbox cmd is in progress (and take long to finish.) This can lockup a cmd in progress in process context. So, these two cmds in BH context must use the MCC queue to post cmds.

2009-06-19af_iucv: Return -EAGAIN if iucv msg limit is exceededHendrik Brueckner
If the iucv message limit for a communication path is exceeded, sendmsg() returns -EAGAIN instead of -EPIPE. The calling application can then handle this error situtation, e.g. to try again after waiting some time. For blocking sockets, sendmsg() waits up to the socket timeout before returning -EAGAIN. For the new wait condition, a macro has been introduced and the iucv_sock_wait_state() has been refactored to this macro.

2009-06-18SUNRPC: Fix the TCP server's send buffer accountingTrond Myklebust
Currently, the sunrpc server is refusing to allow us to process new RPC calls if the TCP send buffer is 2/3 full, even if we do actually have enough free space to guarantee that we can send another request. The following patch fixes svc_tcp_has_wspace() so that we only stop processing requests if we know that the socket buffer cannot possibly fit another reply. It also fixes the tcp write_space() callback so that we only clear the SOCK_NOSPACE flag when the TCP send buffer is less than 2/3 full. This should ensure that the send window will grow as per the standard TCP socket code. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> Signed-off-by: J.
