The advent of call_srcu() and srcu_barrier() obsoleted some of the
documentation, so this commit brings that up to date.

Before RCU had unified idle, the RCU_SAVE_DYNTICK leg of the switch
statement in force_quiescent_state() was dead code for CONFIG_NO_HZ=n
kernel builds. With unified idle, the code is never dead. This commit
therefore removes the "if" statement designed to make gcc aware of when
the code was and was not dead.

The arrival of TREE_PREEMPT_RCU some years back included some ugly
code involving either #ifdef or #ifdef'ed wrapper functions to iterate
over all non-SRCU flavors of RCU. This commit therefore introduces
a for_each_rcu_flavor() iterator over the rcu_state structures for each
flavor of RCU to clean up a bit of the ugliness.

With the advent of __this_cpu_ptr(), it is no longer necessary to pass
both the rcu_state and rcu_data structures into __rcu_process_callbacks().
This commit therefore computes the rcu_data pointer from the rcu_state
pointer within __rcu_process_callbacks() so that callers can pass in
only the pointer to the rcu_state structure. This paves the way for
linking the rcu_state structures together and iterating over them.

The traditional rcu_barrier() implementation has serialized all requests,
regardless of RCU flavor, and also does not coalesce concurrent requests.
In the past, this has been good and sufficient.
However, systems are getting larger and use of rcu_barrier() has been
increasing. This commit therefore introduces a counter-based scheme
that allows _rcu_barrier() calls for the same flavor of RCU to take
advantage of each others' work.

This is a preparatory commit for increasing rcu_barrier()'s concurrency.
It adds a pointer in the rcu_data structure to the corresponding call_rcu()
function. This allows a pointer to the rcu_data structure to imply the
function pointer, which allows _rcu_barrier() state to be placed in the
rcu_state structure.

The rcu_node tree array is sized based on compile-time constants,
including NR_CPUS. Although this approach has worked well in the past,
the recent trend by many distros to define NR_CPUS=4096 results in
excessive grace-period-initialization latencies.
This commit therefore substitutes the run-time computed nr_cpu_ids for
the compile-time NR_CPUS when building the tree. This can result in
much of the compile-time-allocated rcu_node array being unused. If
this is a major problem, you are in a specialized situation anyway,
so you can manually adjust the NR_CPUS, RCU_FANOUT, and RCU_FANOUT_LEAF
kernel config parameters.

increased (but not decreased!) via a boot-time parameter named
rcutree.rcu_fanout_leaf.

We have a bug report where the kernel hits a warning in the cpumask
code:
WARNING: at include/linux/cpumask.h:107
Which is:
WARN_ON_ONCE(cpu >= nr_cpumask_bits);
The backtrace is:
cpu_cmd
cmds
xmon_core
xmon
die
xmon is iterating through 0 to NR_CPUS. I'm not sure why we are still
open coding this but iterating above nr_cpu_ids is definitely a bug.
This patch iterates through all possible cpus, in case we issue a
system reset and CPUs in an offline state call in.
Perhaps the old code was trying to handle CPUs that were in the
partition but were never started (eg kexec into a kernel with an
nr_cpus= boot option). They are going to die way before we get into
xmon since we haven't set any kernel state up for them.

Pull two ARM fixes from Russell King:
"It's been fairly quiet with the fixes. Just two this time. One fixes

the other sorts a problem with the vmalloc space interacting with
static IO mappings."
* 'fixes' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm:
ARM: 7438/1: fill possible PMD empty section gaps
ARM: 7428/1: Prevent KALLSYM size mismatch on ARM.
|
|
On ARM with the 2-level page table format, a PMD entry is represented by
two consecutive section entries covering 2MB of virtual space.
However, static mappings always were allowed to use separate 1MB section
entries. This means in practice that a static mapping may create half
populated PMDs via create_mapping().
Since commit 0536bdf33f (ARM: move iotable mappings within the vmalloc
region) those static mappings are located in the vmalloc area. We must
ensure no such half populated PMDs are accessible once vmalloc() or
ioremap() start looking at the vmalloc area for nearby free virtual
address ranges, or various things leading to a kernel crash will happen.

Currently only used when packet split mode is enabled with jumbo frames,
IP payload checksum (for fragmented UDP packets) is mutually exclusive with
receive hashing offload since the hardware uses the same space in the
receive descriptor for the hardware-provided packet checksum and the RSS
hash, respectively. Users currently must disable jumbos when receive
hashing offload is enabled, or vice versa, because of this incompatibility.
Since testing has shown that IP payload checksum does not provide any real
benefit, just remove it so that there is no longer a choice between jumbos
or receive hashing offload but not both as done in other Intel GbE drivers
(e.g. e1000, igb).
Also, add a missing check for IP checksum error reported by the hardware;
let the stack verify the checksum when this happens.

Basic suspend/resume is fixed by ensuring that the PGSR registers are
set correctly before sleep mode is entered. In particular four of the
active low resets need to be driven high while in sleep mode, otherwise
the unit resets itself instead of suspending. Another problem was that
the PCFR_GPROD bit is set by the HTC bootloader; this caused GPIO reset
(i.e. the reset button) to fail immediately after returning from sleep
mode.

It was noticed recently that when we send data on a transport, its possible that
we might bundle a sack that arrived on a different transport. While this isn't
a major problem, it does go against the SHOULD requirement in section 6.4 of RFC
2960:
An endpoint SHOULD transmit reply chunks (e.g., SACK, HEARTBEAT ACK,
etc.) to the same destination transport address from which it
received the DATA or control chunk to which it is replying. This
rule should also be followed if the endpoint is bundling DATA chunks
together with the reply chunk.
This patch seeks to correct that. It restricts the bundling of sack operations
to only those transports which have moved the ctsn of the association forward
since the last sack. By doing this we guarantee that we only bundle outbound
saks on a transport that has received a chunk since the last sack. This brings
us into stricter compliance with the RFC.
Vlad had initially suggested that we strictly allow only sack bundling on the
transport that last moved the ctsn forward. While this makes sense, I was
concerned that doing so prevented us from bundling in the case where we had
received chunks that moved the ctsn on multiple transports. In those cases, the
RFC allows us to select any of the transports having received chunks to bundle
the sack on. so I've modified the approach to allow for that, by adding a state
variable to each transport that tracks weather it has moved the ctsn since the
last sack. This I think keeps our behavior (and performance), close enough to
our current profile that I think we can do this without a sysctl knob to
enable/disable it.

The acpi_pad driver can get stuck in destroy_power_saving_task()
waiting for kthread_stop() to stop a power_saving thread. The problem
is that the isolated_cpus_lock mutex is owned when
destroy_power_saving_task() calls kthread_stop(), which waits for a
power_saving thread to end, and the power_saving thread tries to
acquire the isolated_cpus_lock when it calls round_robin_cpu(). This

Continuation lines are buffered internally, intended to merge the
chunked printk()s into a single record, and to isolate potentially
racy continuation users from usual terminated line users.
This though, has the effect that partial lines are not printed to
the console in the moment they are emitted. In case the kernel
crashes in the meantime, the potentially interesting printed
information would never reach the consoles.
Here we share the continuation buffer with the console copy logic,
and partial lines are always immediately flushed to the available
consoles. They are still buffered internally to improve the
readability and integrity of the messages and minimize the amount
of needed record headers to store.
