2008-12-31shrink struct dentryNick Piggin
struct dentry is one of the most critical structures in the kernel. So it's sad to see it going neglected. With CONFIG_PROFILING turned on (which is probably the common case at least for distros and kernel developers), sizeof(struct dcache) == 208 here (64-bit). This gives 19 objects per slab. I packed d_mounted into a hole, and took another 4 bytes off the inline name length to take the padding out from the end of the structure. This shinks it to 200 bytes. I could have gone the other way and increased the length to 40, but I'm aiming for a magic number, read on... I then got rid of the d_cookie pointer. This shrinks it to 192 bytes. Rant: why was this ever a good idea? The cookie system should increase its hash size or use a tree or something if lookups are a problem. Also the "fast dcookie lookups" in oprofile should be moved into the dcookie code -- how can oprofile possibly care about the dcookie_mutex? It gets dropped after get_dcookie() returns so it can't be providing any sort of protection. At 192 bytes, 21 objects fit into a 4K page, saving about 3MB on my system with ~140 000 entries allocated. 192 is also a multiple of 64, so we get nice cacheline alignment on 64 and 32 byte line systems -- any given dentry will now require 3 cachelines to touch all fields wheras previously it would require 4. I know the inline name size was chosen quite carefully, however with the reduction in cacheline footprint, it should actually be just about as fast to do a name lookup for a 36 character name as it was before the patch (and faster for other sizes). The memory footprint savings for names which are <= 32 or > 36 bytes long should more than make up for the memory cost for 33-36 byte names. Performance is a feature...

2008-12-31mmc: warn about voltage mismatchesDavid Brownell
Get rid of a silent failure mode when the MMC/SD host doesn't support the voltages needed to operate a given card, by adding a warning. A 3.3V host and a 3.0V card, for example, no longer need to mysteriously just not work at all. This isn't the best diagnostic; ideally it would also tell what voltage the card and host support (and not just by dumping the bitmasks).

2008-12-31KVM: Add locking to virtual i8259 interrupt controllerAvi Kivity
While most accesses to the i8259 are with the kvm mutex taken, the call to kvm_pic_read_irq() is not. We can't easily take the kvm mutex there since the function is called with interrupts disabled. Fix by adding a spinlock to the virtual interrupt controller. Since we can't send an IPI under the spinlock (we also take the same spinlock in an irq disabled context), we defer the IPI until the spinlock is released. Similarly, we defer irq ack notifications until after spinlock release to avoid lock recursion. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

Fix kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_[gs]et_regs() to do something meaningful on ia64. Old versions could never have worked since they required pointers to be set in the ioctl payload which were never being set by the ioctl handler for get_regs. In addition reserve extra space for future extensions. The change of layout of struct kvm_regs doesn't require adding a new CAP since get/set regs never worked on ia64 until now. This version doesn't support copying the KVM kernel stack in/out of the kernel. This should be implemented in a seperate ioctl call if ever needed.

2008-12-31KVM: x86: Rework user space NMI injection as KVM_CAP_USER_NMIJan Kiszka
There is no point in doing the ready_for_nmi_injection/ request_nmi_window dance with user space. First, we don't do this for in-kernel irqchip anyway, while the code path is the same as for user space irqchip mode. And second, there is nothing to loose if a pending NMI is overwritten by another one (in contrast to IRQs where we have to save the number). Actually, there is even the risk of raising spurious NMIs this way because the reason for the held-back NMI might already be handled while processing the first one. Therefore this patch creates a simplified user space NMI injection interface, exporting it under KVM_CAP_USER_NMI and dropping the old KVM_CAP_NMI capability. And this time we also take care to provide the interface only on archs supporting NMIs via KVM (right now only x86).

2008-12-31KVM: fix handling of ACK from shared guest IRQMark McLoughlin
If an assigned device shares a guest irq with an emulated device then we currently interpret an ack generated by the emulated device as originating from the assigned device leading to e.g. "Unbalanced enable for IRQ 4347" from the enable_irq() in kvm_assigned_dev_ack_irq(). The fix is fairly simple - don't enable the physical device irq unless it was previously disabled. Of course, this can still lead to a situation where a non-assigned device ACK can cause the physical device irq to be reenabled before the device was serviced. However, being level sensitive, the interrupt will merely be regenerated. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
