2008-11-06ACPI: remove CONFIG_ACPI_ECBjorn Helgaas
Remove CONFIG_ACPI_EC. It was always set the same as CONFIG_ACPI, and it had no menu label, so there was no way to set it to anything other than "y". Per section 6.5.4 of the ACPI 3.0b specification, OSPM must make Embedded Controller operation regions, accessed via the Embedded Controllers described in ECDT, available before executing any control method. The ECDT table is optional, but if it is present, the above text means that the EC it describes is a required part of the ACPI subsystem, so CONFIG_ACPI_EC=n wouldn't make sense.

Remove CONFIG_ACPI_POWER. It was always set the same as CONFIG_ACPI, and it had no menu label, so there was no way to set it to anything other than "y". The interfaces under CONFIG_ACPI_POWER (acpi_device_sleep_wake(), acpi_power_transition(), etc) are called unconditionally from the ACPI core, so we already depend on it always being present.

When 'start' and 'end' are less than a cacheline apart and 'start' is unaligned we are done after cleaning and invalidating the first cacheline. So check for (start < end) which will not walk off into invalid address ranges when (start > end). This issue was caught by drivers/dma/dmatest. 2.6.27 is susceptible.

2008-11-06[ARM] mm: fix page table initializationRussell King
As a result of the ptebits changes, we ended up marking device mappings as normal memory on ARMv7 CPUs, resulting in undesirable behaviour with serial ports and the like. While reviewing the section mapping table entries, other errors in the memory type settings for devices were detected and confirmed to prevent Xscale3 platforms booting.

2008-11-06[IA64] fix boot panic caused by offline CPUsDoug Chapman
This fixes a regression introduced by 2c6e6db41f01b6b4eb98809350827c9678996698 "Minimize per_cpu reservations." That patch incorrectly used information about what CPUs are possible that was not yet initialized by ACPI. The end result was that per_cpu structures for offline CPUs were not initialized causing a NULL pointer reference. Since we cannot do the full acpi_boot_init() call any earlier, the simplest fix is to just parse the MADT for SAPIC entries early to find the CPU info. This should also allow for some cleanup of the code added by the "Minimize per_cpu reservations". This patch just fixes the regressions, the cleanup will come in a later patch.

2008-11-06[ARM] fix naming of MODULE_START / MODULE_ENDRussell King
As of 73bdf0a60e607f4b8ecc5aec597105976565a84f, the kernel needs to know where modules are located in the virtual address space. On ARM, we located this region between MODULE_START and MODULE_END. Unfortunately, everyone else calls it MODULES_VADDR and MODULES_END. Update ARM to use the same naming, so is_vmalloc_or_module_addr() can work properly. Also update the comment on mm/vmalloc.c to reflect that ARM also places modules in a separate region from the vmalloc space. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

We currently oops with a divide error on starting a linear software raid array consisting of at least two very small (< 500K) devices. The bug is caused by the calculation of the hash table size which tries to compute sector_div(sz, base) with "base" being zero due to the small size of the component devices of the array. Fix this by requiring the hash spacing to be at least one which implies that also "base" is non-zero. This bug has existed since about 2.6.14.

2008-11-06cpumask: introduce new API, without changing anythingRusty Russell
Impact: introduce new APIs We want to deprecate cpumasks on the stack, as we are headed for gynormous numbers of CPUs. Eventually, we want to head towards an undefined 'struct cpumask' so they can never be declared on stack. 1) New cpumask functions which take pointers instead of copies. (cpus_* -> cpumask_*) 2) Several new helpers to reduce requirements for temporary cpumasks (cpumask_first_and, cpumask_next_and, cpumask_any_and) 3) Helpers for declaring cpumasks on or offstack for large NR_CPUS (cpumask_var_t, alloc_cpumask_var and free_cpumask_var) 4) 'struct cpumask' for explicitness and to mark new-style code. 5) Make iterator functions stop at nr_cpu_ids (a runtime constant), not NR_CPUS for time efficiency and for smaller dynamic allocations in future. 6) cpumask_copy() so we can allocate less than a full cpumask eventually (for alloc_cpumask_var), and so we can eliminate the 'struct cpumask' definition eventually. 7) work_on_cpu() helper for doing task on a CPU, rather than saving old cpumask for current thread and manipulating it. 8) smp_call_function_many() which is smp_call_function_mask() except taking a cpumask pointer. Note that this patch simply introduces the new functions and leaves the obsolescent ones in place. This is to simplify the transition patches.

Commit 0762b8bde9729f10f8e6249809660ff2ec3ad735 moved disk_get_part() in front of recursive get on the whole disk, which caused removable devices to try disk_get_part() before rescanning after a new media is inserted, which might fail legit open attempts or give the old partition.

2008-11-06generic-ipi: fix the smp_mb() placementSuresh Siddha
smp_mb() is needed (to make the memory operations visible globally) before sending the ipi on the sender and the receiver (on Alpha atleast) needs smp_read_barrier_depends() in the handler before reading the call_single_queue list in a lock-free fashion. On x86, x2apic mode register accesses for sending IPI's don't have serializing semantics. So the need for smp_mb() before sending the IPI becomes more critical in x2apic mode. Remove the unnecessary smp_mb() in csd_flag_wait(), as the presence of that smp_mb() doesn't mean anything on the sender, when the ipi receiver is not doing any thing special (like memory fence) after clearing the CSD_FLAG_WAIT.

2008-11-06block: add timer on blkdev_dequeue_request() not elv_next_request()Tejun Heo
Block queue supports two usage models - one where block driver peeks at the front of queue using elv_next_request(), processes it and finishes it and the other where block driver peeks at the front of queue, dequeue the request using blkdev_dequeue_request() and finishes it. The latter is more flexible as it allows the driver to process multiple commands concurrently. These two inconsistent usage models affect the block layer implementation confusing. For some, elv_next_request() is considered the issue point while others consider blkdev_dequeue_request() the issue point. Till now the inconsistency mostly affect only accounting, so it didn't really break anything seriously; however, with block layer timeout, this inconsistency hits hard. Block layer considers elv_next_request() the issue point and adds timer but SCSI layer thinks it was just peeking and when the request can't process the command right away, it's just left there without further processing. This makes the request dangling on the timer list and, when the timer goes off, the request which the SCSI layer and below think is still on the block queue ends up in the EH queue, causing various problems - EH hang (failed count goes over busy count and EH never wakes up), WARN_ON() and oopses as low level driver trying to handle the unknown command, etc. depending on the timing. As SCSI midlayer is the only user of block layer timer at the moment, moving blk_add_timer() to elv_dequeue_request() fixes the problem; however, this two usage models definitely need to be cleaned up in the future.

2008-11-06bonding: alternate agg selection policies for 802.3adJay Vosburgh
This patch implements alternative aggregator selection policies for 802.3ad. The existing policy, now termed "stable," selects the active aggregator by greatest bandwidth, and only reselects a new aggregator if the active aggregator is entirely disabled (no more ports or all ports down). This patch adds two new policies: bandwidth and count, selecting the active aggregator by total bandwidth (like the stable policy) or by the number of ports in the aggregator, respectively. These two policies also differ from the stable policy in that they will reselect the active aggregator when availability-related changes occur in the bond (e.g., link state change). This permits "gang failover" within 802.3ad, allowing redundant aggregators along parallel paths to always maintain the "best" aggregator as the active aggregator (rather than having to wait for the active to entirely fail).

2008-11-06bonding: send IPv6 neighbor advertisement on failoverBrian Haley
This patch adds better IPv6 failover support for bonding devices, especially when in active-backup mode and there are only IPv6 addresses configured, as reported by Alex Sidorenko. - Creates a new file, net/drivers/bonding/bond_ipv6.c, for the IPv6-specific routines. Both regular bonds and VLANs over bonds are supported. - Adds a new tunable, num_unsol_na, to limit the number of unsolicited IPv6 Neighbor Advertisements that are sent on a failover event. Default is 1. - Creates two new IPv6 neighbor discovery functions: ndisc_build_skb() ndisc_send_skb() These were required to support VLANs since we have to be able to add the VLAN id to the skb since ndisc_send_na() and friends shouldn't be asked to do this. These two routines are basically __ndisc_send() split into two pieces, in a slightly different order. - Updates Documentation/networking/bonding.txt and bumps the rev of bond support to 3.4.0. On failover, this new code will generate one packet: - An unsolicited IPv6 Neighbor Advertisement, which helps the switch learn that the address has moved to the new slave. Testing has shown that sending just the NA results in pretty good behavior when in active-back mode, I saw no lost ping packets for example.

2008-11-05pkt_sched: Fix qdisc len in qdisc_peek_dequeued()Jarek Poplawski
A packet dequeued and stored as gso_skb in qdisc_peek_dequeued() should be seen as part of the queue for sch->q.qlen queries until it's really dequeued with qdisc_dequeue_peeked(), so qlen needs additional updating in these functions. (Updating qstats.backlog shouldn't matter here.) Signed-off-by: Jarek Poplawski <jarkao2@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-11-05net: Don't leak packets when a netns is going downEric W. Biederman
I have been tracking for a while a case where when the network namespace exits the cleanup gets stck in an endless precessess of: unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3 unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3 unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3 unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3 unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3 unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3 unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3 It turns out that if you listen on a multicast address an unsubscribe packet is sent when the network device goes down. If you shutdown the network namespace without carefully cleaning up this can trigger the unsubscribe packet to be sent over the loopback interface while the network namespace is going down. All of which is fine except when we drop the packet and forget to free it leaking the skb and the dst entry attached to. As it turns out the dst entry hold a reference to the idev which holds the dev and keeps everything from being cleaned up. Yuck! By fixing my earlier thinko and add the needed kfree_skb and everything cleans up beautifully. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-11-05net: Guaranetee the proper ordering of the loopback device.Eric W. Biederman
I was recently hunting a bug that occurred in network namespace cleanup. In looking at the code it became apparrent that we have and will continue to have cases where if we have anything going on in a network namespace there will be assumptions that the loopback device is present. Things like sending igmp unsubscribe messages when we bring down network devices invokes the routing code which assumes that at least the loopback driver is present. Therefore to avoid magic initcall ordering hackery that is hard to follow and hard to get right insert a call to register the loopback device directly from net_dev_init(). This guarantes that the loopback device is the first device registered and the last network device to go away. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-11-05netns: Delete virtual interfaces during namespace cleanupEric W. Biederman
When physical devices are inside of network namespace and that network namespace terminates we can not make them go away. We have to keep them and moving them to the initial network namespace is the best we can do. For virtual devices left in a network namespace that is exiting we have no need to preserve them and we now have the infrastructure that allows us to delete them. So delete virtual devices when we exit a network namespace. Keeping the necessary user space clean up after a network namespace exits much more tractable.

2008-11-05[JFFS2] fix race condition in jffs2_lzo_compress()Geert Uytterhoeven
deflate_mutex protects the globals lzo_mem and lzo_compress_buf. However, jffs2_lzo_compress() unlocks deflate_mutex _before_ it has copied out the compressed data from lzo_compress_buf. Correct this by moving the mutex unlock after the copy. In addition, document what deflate_mutex actually protects.
