2008-05-07[S390] s390-kvm: leave sie context on work. Removes preemption requirementChristian Borntraeger
From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> This patch fixes a bug with cpu bound guest on kvm-s390. Sometimes it was impossible to deliver a signal to a spinning guest. We used preemption as a circumvention. The preemption notifiers called vcpu_load, which checked for pending signals and triggered a host intercept. But even with preemption, a sigkill was not delivered immediately. This patch changes the low level host interrupt handler to check for the SIE instruction, if TIF_WORK is set. In that case we change the instruction pointer of the return PSW to rerun the vcpu_run loop. The kvm code sees an intercept reason 0 if that happens. This patch adds accounting for these types of intercept as well. The advantages: - works with and without preemption - signals are delivered immediately - much better host latencies without preemption Acked-by: Carsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
2008-05-07[S390] s390: Optimize user and work TIF checkMartin Schwidefsky
On return from syscall or interrupt, we have to check if we return to userspace (likely) and if there is work todo (less likely) to decide if we handle the work. We can optimize this check: we first check for the less likely work case and then check for userspace. This patch is also a preparation for an additional patch, that fixes a bug in KVM dealing with cpu bound guests. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

2008-05-07[Blackfin] arch: fix gdb testing regressionBernd Schmidt
When transferring to IRQ5 from an exception, save SYSCFG in memory across the transfer and clear the trace bit. When we get a single step exception, check whether we can safely clear the trace bit in SYSCFG. We can (and should) clear it after the first instruction of the interrupt handler; the first insn saves SYSCFG to the stack in all handlers.

2008-05-06RDMA/cxgb3: Fix severe limit on userspace memory registration sizeRoland Dreier
Currently, iw_cxgb3 is severely limited on the amount of userspace memory that can be registered in in a single memory region, which causes big problems for applications that expect to be able to register 100s of MB. The problem is that the driver uses a single kmalloc()ed buffer to hold the physical buffer list (PBL) for the entire memory region during registration, which means that 8 bytes of contiguous memory are required for each page of memory being registered. For example, a 64 MB registration will require 128 KB of contiguous memory with 4 KB pages, and it unlikely that such an allocation will succeed on a busy system. This is purely a driver problem: the temporary page list buffer is not needed by the hardware, so we can fix this by writing the PBL to the hardware in page-sized chunks rather than all at once. We do this by splitting the memory registration operation up into several steps: - Allocate PBL space in adapter memory for the full registration - Copy PBL to adapter memory in chunks - Allocate STag and enable memory region This also allows several other cleanups to the __cxio_tpt_op() interface and related parts of the driver. This change leaves the reregister memory region and memory window operations broken, but they already didn't work due to other longstanding bugs, so fixing them will be left to a later patch.

2008-05-06[CIFS] cleanup cifsd completionSteve French
Was a holdover from the old kernel_thread based cifsd code. We needed to know that the thread had set the task variable before proceeding. Now that kthread_run returns the new task, this doesn't appear to be needed anymore. As best I can tell, this sleep was intended to try to prevent cifs_umount from freeing the cifsSesInfo struct before cifsd had exited. Now that cifsd is using the kthread API, we know that when kthread_stop returns that cifsd has exited, so I don't think this is needed any longer.

2008-05-06RDMA/cxgb3: Don't add PBL memory to gen_pool in chunksRoland Dreier
Current iw_cxgb3 code adds PBL memory to the driver's gen_pool in 2 MB chunks. This limits the largest single allocation that can be done to the same size, which means that with 4 KB pages, each of which takes 8 bytes of PBL memory, the largest memory region that can be allocated is 1 GB (256K PBL entries * 4 KB/entry). Remove this limit by adding all the PBL memory in a single gen_pool chunk, if possible. Add code that falls back to smaller chunks if gen_pool_add() fails, which can happen if there is not sufficient contiguous lowmem for the internal gen_pool bitmap.

2008-05-06x86: fix PAE pmd_bad bootup warningHugh Dickins
Fix warning from pmd_bad() at bootup on a HIGHMEM64G HIGHPTE x86_32. That came from 9fc34113f6880b215cbea4e7017fc818700384c2 x86: debug pmd_bad(); but we understand now that the typecasting was wrong for PAE in the previous version: pagetable pages above 4GB looked bad and stopped Arjan from booting. And revert that cded932b75ab0a5f9181ee3da34a0a488d1a14fd x86: fix pmd_bad and pud_bad to support huge pages. It was the wrong way round: we shouldn't weaken every pmd_bad and pud_bad check to let huge pages slip through - in part they check that we _don't_ have a huge page where it's not expected. Put the x86 pmd_bad() and pud_bad() definitions back to what they have long been: they can be improved (x86_32 should use PTE_MASK, to stop PAE thinking junk in the upper word is good; and x86_64 should follow x86_32's stricter comparison, to stop thinking any subset of required bits is good); but that should be a later patch. Fix Hans' good observation that follow_page() will never find pmd_huge() because that would have already failed the pmd_bad test: test pmd_huge in between the pmd_none and pmd_bad tests. Tighten x86's pmd_huge() check? No, once it's a hugepage entry, it can get quite far from a good pmd: for example, PROT_NONE leaves it with only ACCESSED of the KERN_PGTABLE bits. However... though follow_page() contains this and another test for huge pages, so it's nice to keep it working on them, where does it actually get called on a huge page? get_user_pages() checks is_vm_hugetlb_page(vma) to to call alternative hugetlb processing, as does unmap_vmas() and others.

2008-05-06[PATCH] fix SMP ordering hole in fcntl_setlk()Al Viro
fcntl_setlk()/close() race prevention has a subtle hole - we need to make sure that if we *do* have an fcntl/close race on SMP box, the access to descriptor table and inode->i_flock won't get reordered. As it is, we get STORE inode->i_flock, LOAD descriptor table entry vs. STORE descriptor table entry, LOAD inode->i_flock with not a single lock in common on both sides. We do have BKL around the first STORE, but check in locks_remove_posix() is outside of BKL and for a good reason - we don't want BKL on common path of close(2). Solution is to hold ->file_lock around fcheck() in there; that orders us wrt removal from descriptor table that preceded locks_remove_posix() on close path and we either come first (in which case eviction will be handled by the close side) or we'll see the effect of close and do eviction ourselves. Note that even though it's read-only access, we do need ->file_lock here - rcu_read_lock() won't be enough to order the things. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
