2008-10-16x86: alloc dyn_array all togetherYinghai Lu
so could spare some memory with small alignment in bootmem also tighten the alignment checking, and make print out less debug info. Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-10-16add per_cpu_dyn_array supportYinghai Lu
allow dyn-array in per_cpu area, allocated dynamically. usage: | /* in .h */ | struct kernel_stat { | struct cpu_usage_stat cpustat; | unsigned int *irqs; | }; | | /* in .c */ | DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct kernel_stat, kstat); | | DEFINE_PER_CPU_DYN_ARRAY_ADDR(per_cpu__kstat_irqs, per_cpu__kstat.irqs, sizeof(unsigned int), nr_irqs, sizeof(unsigned long), NULL); after setup_percpu()/per_cpu_alloc_dyn_array(), the dyn_array in per_cpu area is ready to use.

2008-10-16generic: add dyn_array supportYinghai Lu
Allow crazy big arrays via bootmem at init stage. Architectures use CONFIG_HAVE_DYN_ARRAY to enable it. usage: | static struct irq_desc irq_desc_init __initdata = { | .status = IRQ_DISABLED, | .chip = &no_irq_chip, | .handle_irq = handle_bad_irq, | .depth = 1, | .lock = __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED(irq_desc->lock), | #ifdef CONFIG_SMP | .affinity = CPU_MASK_ALL | #endif | }; | | static void __init init_work(void *data) | { | struct dyn_array *da = data; | struct irq_desc *desc; | int i; | | desc = *da->name; | | for (i = 0; i < *da->nr; i++) | memcpy(&desc[i], &irq_desc_init, sizeof(struct irq_desc)); | } | | struct irq_desc *irq_desc; | DEFINE_DYN_ARRAY(irq_desc, sizeof(struct irq_desc), nr_irqs, PAGE_SIZE, init_work); after pre_alloc_dyn_array() after setup_arch(), the array is ready to be used. Via this facility we can replace irq_desc[NR_IRQS] array with dyn_array irq_desc[nr_irqs]. v2: remove _nopanic in pre_alloc_dyn_array() Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-10-16ext4: Fix file fragmentation during large file write.Aneesh Kumar K.V
The range_cyclic writeback mode uses the address_space writeback_index as the start index for writeback. With delayed allocation we were updating writeback_index wrongly resulting in highly fragmented file. This patch reduces the number of extents reduced from 4000 to 27 for a 3GB file.

2008-10-16vfs: Add no_nrwrite_index_update writeback control flagAneesh Kumar K.V
If no_nrwrite_index_update is set we don't update nr_to_write and address space writeback_index in write_cache_pages. This change enables a file system to skip these updates in write_cache_pages and do them in the writepages() callback. This patch will be followed by an ext4 patch that make use of these new flags.

On the GM45, the amount of stolen memory mapped to the GTT was underestimated, even though we had 508KB more available since the GTT doesn't take from stolen memory. On the non-GM45 G4X, we overestimated how much stolen was mapped to the GTT by 4KB, resulting in GPU page faults when that page was accessed.

Commit 9be7bbd54df3c9c393ccd19acc49f90c517d1291 (HID: build drivers for all quirky devices by default) made a wrong assumption about select/depends interaction in Kconfig, resulting in possibility of link failure with certain configuration options.

2008-10-15IPV6: Fix default gateway criteria wrt. HIGH/LOW preference radv optionPedro Ribeiro
Problem observed: In IPv6, in the presence of multiple routers candidates to default gateway in one segment, each sending a different value of preference, the Linux hosts connected to the segment weren't selecting the right one in all the combinations possible of LOW/MEDIUM/HIGH preference. This patch changes two files: include/linux/icmpv6.h Get the "router_pref" bitfield in the right place (as RFC4191 says), named the bit left with this fix as "home_agent" (RFC3775 say that's his function) net/ipv6/ndisc.c Corrects the binary logic behind the updating of the router preference in the flags of the routing table Result: With this two fixes applied, the default route used by the system was to consistent with the rules mentioned in RFC4191 in case of changes in the value of preference in router advertisements Signed-off-by: Pedro Ribeiro <pribeiro@net.ipl.pt> Acked-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-10-15firewire: fw-sbp2: fix another small generation access bugStefan Richter
queuecommand() looked at the remote and local node IDs before it read the bus generation. The corresponding race with sbp2_reconnect updating these data was probably impossible to happen though because the current code blocks the SCSI layer during reconnection. However, better safe than sorry, especially if someone later improves the code to not block the SCSI layer. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
2008-10-15firewire: fw-sbp2: enforce s/g segment size limitStefan Richter
1. We don't need to round the SBP-2 segment size limit down to a multiple of 4 kB (0xffff -> 0xf000). It is only necessary to ensure quadlet alignment (0xffff -> 0xfffc). 2. Use dma_set_max_seg_size() to tell the DMA mapping infrastructure and the block IO layer about the restriction. This way we can remove the size checks and segment splitting in the queuecommand path. This assumes that no other code in the firewire stack uses dma_map_sg() with conflicting requirements. It furthermore assumes that the controller device's platform actually allows us to set the segment size to our liking. Assert the latter with a BUG_ON(). 3. Also use blk_queue_max_segment_size() to tell the block IO layer about it. It cannot know it because our scsi_add_host() does not point to the FireWire controller's device.

2008-10-15ieee1394: survive a few seconds connection lossStefan Richter
There are situations when nodes vanish from the bus and come back in quickly thereafter: - When certain bus-powered hubs are plugged in, - when certain disk enclosures are switched from self-power to bus power or vice versa and break the daisy chain during the transition, - when the user plugs a cable out and quickly plugs it back in, e.g. to reorder a daisy chain (works on Mac OS X if done quickly enough), - when certain hubs temporarily malfunction during high bus traffic. The ieee1394 driver's nodemgr already contained a function to set vanished nodes aside into "limbo"; i.e. they wouldn't actually be deleted right away. (In fact, only unloading the driver or writing into an obscure sysfs attribute would delete them eventually.) If nodes reappeared later, they would be resurrected out of limbo. Moving nodes into and out of limbo was accompanied with calling the .suspend() and .resume() driver methods of the drivers which were bound to a respective node's unit directories. Not only is this somewhat strange due to the intended use of these driver methods for power management, also the sbp2 driver in particular does not implement .suspend() and .resume(). Hence sbp2 would be disconnected from devices in situations as listed above. We now: - leave drivers bound when nodes go into limbo, - call the drivers' .update() when nodes come out of limbo, - automatically delete in-limbo nodes 3 seconds after the last bus reset and bus rescan. - Because of the automatic removal, the now obsolete bus attribute /sys/bus/ieee1394/destroy_node is removed. This especially lets sbp2 survive brief disconnections. You can for example yank a disk's cable and plug it back in while reading the respective disk with dd, but dd will happily continue as if nothing happened.
