2010-01-26clocksource: Prevent potential kgdb dead lockThomas Gleixner
commit 0f8e8ef7 (clocksource: Simplify clocksource watchdog resume logic) introduced a potential kgdb dead lock. When the kernel is stopped by kgdb inside code which holds watchdog_lock then kgdb dead locks in clocksource_resume_watchdog(). clocksource_resume_watchdog() is called from kbdg via clocksource_touch_watchdog() to avoid that the clock source watchdog marks TSC unstable after the kernel has been stopped. Solve this by replacing spin_lock with a spin_trylock and just return in case the lock is held. Not resetting the watchdog might result in TSC becoming marked unstable, but that's an acceptable penalty for using kgdb. The timekeeping is anyway easily screwed up by kgdb when the system uses either jiffies or a clock source which wraps in short intervals (e.g. pm_timer wraps about every 4.6s), so we really do not have to worry about that occasional TSC marked unstable side effect. The second caller of clocksource_resume_watchdog() is clocksource_resume(). The trylock is safe here as well because the system is UP at this point, interrupts are disabled and nothing else can hold watchdog_lock().

2010-01-26xfs: Use delay write promotion for dquot flushingDave Chinner
xfs_qm_dqflock_pushbuf_wait() does a very similar trick to item pushing used to do to flush out delayed write dquot buffers. Change it to use the new promotion method rather than an async flush. Also, xfs_qm_dqflock_pushbuf_wait() can return without the flush lock held, yet the callers make the assumption that after this call the flush lock is held. Always return with the flush lock held.

2010-01-26xfs: Sort delayed write buffers before dispatchDave Chinner
Currently when the xfsbufd writes delayed write buffers, it pushes them to disk in the order they come off the delayed write list. If there are lots of buffers ѕpread widely over the disk, this results in overwhelming the elevator sort queues in the block layer and we end up losing the posibility of merging adjacent buffers to minimise the number of IOs. Use the new generic list_sort function to sort the delwri dispatch queue before issue to ensure that the buffers are pushed in the most friendly order possible to the lower layers.

2010-02-02xfs: Don't issue buffer IO direct from AIL push V2Dave Chinner
All buffers logged into the AIL are marked as delayed write. When the AIL needs to push the buffer out, it issues an async write of the buffer. This means that IO patterns are dependent on the order of buffers in the AIL. Instead of flushing the buffer, promote the buffer in the delayed write list so that the next time the xfsbufd is run the buffer will be flushed by the xfsbufd. Return the state to the xfsaild that the buffer was promoted so that the xfsaild knows that it needs to cause the xfsbufd to run to flush the buffers that were promoted. Using the xfsbufd for issuing the IO allows us to dispatch all buffer IO from the one queue. This means that we can make much more enlightened decisions on what order to flush buffers to disk as we don't have multiple places issuing IO. Optimisations to xfsbufd will be in a future patch. Version 2 - kill XFS_ITEM_FLUSHING as it is now unused. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
2010-02-06xfs: Use delayed write for inodes rather than async V2Dave Chinner
We currently do background inode flush asynchronously, resulting in inodes being written in whatever order the background writeback issues them. Not only that, there are also blocking and non-blocking asynchronous inode flushes, depending on where the flush comes from. This patch completely removes asynchronous inode writeback. It removes all the strange writeback modes and replaces them with either a synchronous flush or a non-blocking delayed write flush. That is, inode flushes will only issue IO directly if they are synchronous, and background flushing may do nothing if the operation would block (e.g. on a pinned inode or buffer lock). Delayed write flushes will now result in the inode buffer sitting in the delwri queue of the buffer cache to be flushed by either an AIL push or by the xfsbufd timing out the buffer. This will allow accumulation of dirty inode buffers in memory and allow optimisation of inode cluster writeback at the xfsbufd level where we have much greater queue depths than the block layer elevators. We will also get adjacent inode cluster buffer IO merging for free when a later patch in the series allows sorting of the delayed write buffers before dispatch. This effectively means that any inode that is written back by background writeback will be seen as flush locked during AIL pushing, and will result in the buffers being pushed from there. This writeback path is currently non-optimal, but the next patch in the series will fix that problem. A side effect of this delayed write mechanism is that background inode reclaim will no longer directly flush inodes, nor can it wait on the flush lock. The result is that inode reclaim must leave the inode in the reclaimable state until it is clean. Hence attempts to reclaim a dirty inode in the background will simply skip the inode until it is clean and this allows other mechanisms (i.e. xfsbufd) to do more optimal writeback of the dirty buffers. As a result, the inode reclaim code has been rewritten so that it no longer relies on the ambiguous return values of xfs_iflush() to determine whether it is safe to reclaim an inode. Portions of this patch are derived from patches by Christoph Hellwig. Version 2: - cleanup reclaim code as suggested by Christoph - log background reclaim inode flush errors - just pass sync flags to xfs_iflush Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
2010-02-06xfs: Make inode reclaim states explicitDave Chinner
A.K.A.: don't rely on xfs_iflush() return value in reclaim We have gradually been moving checks out of the reclaim code because they are duplicated in xfs_iflush(). We've had a history of problems in this area, and many of them stem from the overloading of the return values from xfs_iflush() and interaction with inode flush locking to determine if the inode is safe to reclaim. With the desire to move to delayed write flushing of inodes and non-blocking inode tree reclaim walks, the overloading of the return value of xfs_iflush makes it very difficult to determine the correct thing to do next. This patch explicitly re-adds the checks to the inode reclaim code, removing the reliance on the return value of xfs_iflush() to determine what to do next. It also means that we can clearly document all the inode states that reclaim must handle and hence we can easily see that we handled all the necessary cases. This also removes the need for the xfs_inode_clean() check in xfs_iflush() as all callers now check this first (safely).

2010-01-26xfs: don't hold onto reserved blocks on remount,roDave Chinner
If we hold onto reserved blocks when doing a remount,ro we end up writing the blocks used count to disk that includes the reserved blocks. Reserved blocks are not actually used, so this results in the values in the superblock being incorrect. Hence if we run xfs_check or xfs_repair -n while the filesystem is mounted remount,ro we end up with an inconsistent filesystem being reported. Also, running xfs_copy on the remount,ro filesystem will result in an inconsistent image being generated. To fix this, unreserve the blocks when doing the remount,ro, and reserved them again on remount,rw. This way a remount,ro filesystem will appear consistent on disk to all utilities.

2010-01-25virtio_net: Make delayed refill more reliableHerbert Xu
I have seen RX stalls on a machine that experienced a suspected OOM. After the stall, the RX buffer is empty on the guest side and there are exactly 16 entries available on the host side. As the number of entries is less than that required by a maximal skb, the host cannot proceed. The guest did not have a refill job scheduled. My diagnosis is that an OOM had occured, with the delayed refill job scheduled. The job was able to allocate at least one skb, but not enough to overcome the minimum required by the host to proceed. As the refill job would only reschedule itself if it failed completely to allocate any skbs, this would lead to an RX stall. The following patch removes this stall possibility by always rescheduling the refill job until the ring is totally refilled. Testing has shown that the RX stall no longer occurs whereas previously it would occur within a day.

Currently qlge tries to release regions even if they were not allocated. This causes messages like the following in the kernel log Trying to free nonexistent resource <00000000006af400-00000000006af4ff> Trying to free nonexistent resource <00003c04ff9f4000-00003c04ff9f7fff> Trying to free nonexistent resource <00003c04ffc00000-00003c04ffcfffff> This patch fixes the goto logic in order to not release the resources if they were not allocated.

2010-01-25ath9k: fix eeprom INI values override for 2GHz-only cardsFelix Fietkau
Among other changes, this commit: commit 06d0f0663e11cab4ec5f2c143a118d71a12fbbe9 Author: Sujith <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com> Date: Thu Feb 12 10:06:45 2009 +0530 ath9k: Enable Fractional N mode changed the hw attach code to fix up initialization values only for dual band devices, however the commit message did not give a reason as to why this would be useful or necessary. According to tests by Jorge Boncompte, this breaks at least some 2GHz-only cards, so the code should be changed back to the unconditional INI fixup.

There are a few station addresses that are char *, instead of the normal u8 *; gcc gives pointer signedness warnings for some of those, so use u8 * consistently.

2010-01-25tracing: Prevent kernel oops with corrupted bufferSteven Rostedt
If the contents of the ftrace ring buffer gets corrupted and the trace file is read, it could create a kernel oops (usualy just killing the user task thread). This is caused by the checking of the pid in the buffer. If the pid is negative, it still references the cmdline cache array, which could point to an invalid address. The simple fix is to test for negative PIDs. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The mdelay function was used between I/O access commands, that causes peak in CPU usage. Fix it by substitution mdelay to msleep. Expand usage on fitPC2 compatible boards according to DMI identification. Signed-off-by: Denis Turischev <denis@compulab.co.il> Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck <wim@iguana.be>
2010-01-25PCI: fix nested spinlock hang in aer_injectAndrew Patterson
The aer_inject module hangs in aer_inject() when checking the device's error masks. The hang is due to a recursive use of the aer_inject lock. The aer_inject() routine grabs the lock while processing the error and then calls pci_read_config_dword to read the masks. The pci_read_config_dword routine is earlier overridden by pci_read_aer, which among other things, grabs the aer_inject lock. Fixed by moving the pci_read_config_dword calls to read the masks to before the lock is taken.

2010-01-25mm: add coherence API for DMA to vmalloc/vmap areasJames Bottomley
On Virtually Indexed architectures (which don't do automatic alias resolution in their caches), we have to flush via the correct virtual address to prepare pages for DMA. On some architectures (like arm) we cannot prevent the CPU from doing data movein along the alias (and thus giving stale read data), so we not only have to introduce a flush API to push dirty cache lines out, but also an invalidate API to kill inconsistent cache lines that may have moved in before DMA changed the data Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de>
