yesterday I tried to reactivate my old 486 box and wanted to install a
current Linux with latest kernel on it. But it turned out that the
latest kernel does not boot because the machine crashes early in the
setup code.
After some debugging it turned out that the problem is the query_ist()
function. If this interrupt with that function is called the machine
simply locks up. It looks like a BIOS bug. Looking for a workaround for
this problem I wrote the attached patch. It checks for the CPUID
instruction and if it is not implemented it does not call the speedstep
BIOS function. As far as I know speedstep should be available since some
Pentium earliest.
Alan Cox observed that it's available since the Pentium II, so cpuid
levels 4 and 5 can be excluded altogether.
H. Peter Anvin cleaned up the code some more:
> Right in concept, but I dislike the implementation (duplication of the
> CPU detect code we already have). Could you try this patch and see if
> it works for you?
which, with a small modification to fix a build error with it the
resulting kernel boots on my machine.

In case of error, the function rxrpc_get_transport returns an ERR
pointer, but never returns a NULL pointer. So after a call to this
function, a NULL test should be replaced by an IS_ERR test.
A simplified version of the semantic patch that makes this change is
as follows:
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)
// <smpl>
@correct_null_test@
expression x,E;
statement S1, S2;
@@
x = rxrpc_get_transport(...)

+ ! IS_ERR ( x )

Based upon a bug report by Andrew Gallatin on netdev
with subject "CPU utilization increased in 2.6.27rc"
In commit 37437bb2e1ae8af470dfcd5b4ff454110894ccaf
("pkt_sched: Schedule qdiscs instead of netdev_queue.")
the test of the queue being stopped was erroneously
removed from qdisc_run().
When the TX queue of the device fills up, this omission
causes lots of extraneous useless work to be queued up
to softirq context, where we'll just return immediately
because the device is still stuffed up.

At the moment UBIFS reserves twice old index size space for the
index. But this is not enough in some cases, because if the indexing
node are very fragmented and there are many small gaps, while the
dirty index has big znodes - in-the-gaps method would fail.
Thus, reserve trise as more, in which case we are guaranteed that
we can commit in any case.

UBIFS aligns node lengths to 8, so budgeting has to do the
same. Well, direntry, inode, and page budgets are already
aligned, but not inode data budget (e.g., data in special
devices or symlinks). Do this for inode data as well.
Also, add corresponding debugging checks.

Every time anything is deleted, UBIFS writes the deletion inode
node twice - once in 'ubifs_jnl_update()' and the second time in
'ubifs_jnl_write_inode()'. However, the second write is not needed
if no commit happened after 'ubifs_jnl_update()'. This patch
checks that condition and avoids writing the deletion inode for
the second time.

Orphan inodes are deleted inodes which will disappear after FS
re-mount. There is not need to write orphan inodes back, because
they are not needed on the flash media.
So optimize orphans a little by not writing them back. Just mark
them as clean, free the budget, and report success to VFS.

We use ubifs_ro_mode() quite a lot, and not in fast-path, so
there is no reason to blow the code up by having it inlined.
Also, we usually want R/O mode change to be seen to other
CPUs as soon as possible, so when we make this a function
call, we will automatically have a memory barrier.

UBI transparently handles write errors by automatically copying
and remapping the affected eraseblock. If UBI is unable to do
that, for example its pool of eraseblocks reserved for bad block
handling is empty, then the error is propagated to UBIFS. UBIFS
must protect the media from falling into an inconsistent state
by immediately switching to read-only mode. In the case of log
updates, this was not being done.

The 'ubifs_release_dirty_inode_budget()' was buggy and incorrectly
freed the budget, which led to not freeing all dirty data budget.
This patch fixes that.
Also, this patch fixes ubifs_mkdir() which passed 1 in dirty_ino_d,
which makes no sense. Well, it is harmless though.
Also, add few more useful assertions. And improve few debugging
messages.

Use KM_NOFS to prevent recursion back into the filesystem which can cause
deadlocks.
In the case of xfs_iread() we hold the lock on the inode cluster buffer
while allocating memory for the trace buffers. If we recurse back into XFS
to flush data that may require a transaction to allocate extents which
needs log space. This can deadlock with the xfsaild thread which can't
push the tail of the log because it is trying to get the inode cluster
buffer lock.

xfs_mount_free mostly frees the perag data, which is something that is
duplicated in the mount error path.
Move the XFS_QM_DONE call to the caller and remove the useless
mutex_destroy/spinlock_destroy calls so that we can re-use it for the
mount error path. Also rename it to xfs_free_perag to reflect what it
does.

xfs_readsb is called before xfs_mount so xfs_freesb should be called after

The root inode is allocated in xfs_mountfs so it should be release in
xfs_unmountfs. For the unmount case that means we do it after the the
xfs_sync(mp, SYNC_WAIT | SYNC_CLOSE) in the forced shutdown case and the
dmapi unmount event. Note that both reference the rip variable which might
be freed by that time in case inode flushing has kicked in, so strictly
speaking this might count as a bug fix

In xfs_ialloc we just want to set all timestamps to the current time. We
don't need to mark the inode dirty like xfs_ichgtime does, and we don't
need nor want the opimizations in xfs_ichgtime that I will introduce in
the next patch.
So just opencode the timestamp update in xfs_ialloc, and remove the new
unused XFS_ICHGTIME_ACC case in xfs_ichgtime.
