under rq->lock
Impact: fix hang/crash on ia64 under high load
This is ugly, but the simplest patch by far.
Unlike other similar routines, account_group_exec_runtime() could be
called "implicitly" from within scheduler after exit_notify(). This
means we can race with the parent doing release_task(), we can't just
check ->signal != NULL.
Change __exit_signal() to do spin_unlock_wait(&task_rq(tsk)->lock)
before __cleanup_signal() to make sure ->signal can't be freed under
task_rq(tsk)->lock. Note that task_rq_unlock_wait() doesn't care
about the case when tsk changes cpu/rq under us, this should be OK.
Thanks to Ingo who nacked my previous buggy patch.

This introduces a debugfs file (ieee80211/phy#/hwsim/ps) that can be
used to force a simulated radio into power save mode. Following values
can be written into this file to change PS mode:
0 = power save disabled (constantly awake)
1 = power save enabled (drop all frames; do not send PS-Poll)
2 = power save enabled (send PS-Poll frames automatically to receive
buffered unicast frames); not yet fully implemented
3 = manual PS-Poll trigger (send a single PS-Poll frame)
Two different behavior for power save mode processing can be tested:
- move between modes 1 and 0 (i.e., receive all buffered frames at a
time)
- move to mode 1 and use manual PS-Poll frames (write 3 to the 'ps'
debugfs file) to fetch power save buffered frames one at a time
Mode 2 (automatic PS-Poll) does not yet parse Beacon frames, but
eventually, it should take a look at TIM IE and send PS-Poll if a
traffic bit is set for our AID.

This patch reverts the following three commits which convert libata to
use block layer tagging.
43a49cbdf31e812c0d8f553d433b09b421f5d52c
e013e13bf605b9e6b702adffbe2853cfc60e7806
2fca5ccf97d2c28bcfce44f5b07d85e74e3cd18e
Although using block layer tagging is the right direction, due to the
tight coupling among tag number, data structure allocation and
hardware command slot allocation, libata doesn't work correctly with
the current conversion.
The biggest problem is guaranteeing that tag 0 is always used for
non-NCQ commands. Due to the way blk-tag is implemented and how SCSI
starts and finishes requests, such guarantee can't be made. I'm not
sure whether this would actually break any low level driver but it
doesn't look like a good idea to break such assumption given the
frailty of ATA controllers.
So, for the time being, keep using the old dumb in-libata qc
allocation.

Impact: preserve user-modified affinities on interrupts
Kumar Galak noticed that commit
18404756765c713a0be4eb1082920c04822ce588 (genirq: Expose default irq
affinity mask (take 3))
overrides an already set affinity setting across a free /
request_irq(). Happens e.g. with ifdown/ifup of a network device.
Change the logic to mark the affinities as set and keep them
intact. This also fixes the unlocked access to irq_desc in
irq_select_affinity() when called from irq_affinity_proc_write()

Currently, all existing users of cnt32_to_63() are fine since the CPU
architectures where it is used don't do read access reordering, and user
mode preemption is disabled already. It is nevertheless a good idea to
better elaborate usage requirements wrt preemption, and use an explicit
memory barrier on SMP to avoid different CPUs accessing the counter
value in the wrong order. On UP a simple compiler barrier is
sufficient.

'tracing/urgent' into tracing/core
|
|
The classifier should cover the most common use case and will work
without any special configuration.
The principle of the classifier is to directly access the
task_struct via get_current(). In order for this to work,
classification requests from softirqs must be ignored. This is
not a problem because the vast majority of packets in softirq
context are not assigned to a task anyway. For this to work, a
mechanism is needed to trace softirq context.
This repost goes back to the method of relying on the number of
nested bh disable calls for the sake of not adding too much
complexity and the option to come up with something more reliable
if actually needed.

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.
But do it carefully so we register the loopback device after
we clear dev_boot_phase.

If an ACPI graphics device supports backlight brightness functions (cmp. with
latest ACPI spec Appendix B), let the ACPI video driver control backlight and
switch backlight control off in vendor specific ACPI drivers (asus_acpi,
thinkpad_acpi, eeepc, fujitsu_laptop, msi_laptop, sony_laptop, acer-wmi).
Currently it is possible to load above drivers and let both poke on the
brightness HW registers, the video and vendor specific ACPI drivers -> bad.
This patch provides the basic support to check for BIOS capabilities before
driver loading time. Driver specific modifications are in separate follow up
patches.

__scm_destroy() walks the list of file descriptors in the scm_fp_list
pointed to by the scm_cookie argument.
Those, in turn, can close sockets and invoke __scm_destroy() again.
There is nothing which limits how deeply this can occur.
The idea for how to fix this is from Linus. Basically, we do all of
the fput()s at the top level by collecting all of the scm_fp_list
objects hit by an fput(). Inside of the initial __scm_destroy() we
keep running the list until it is empty.

Fix the hrtimer_add_expires_ns() function. It should take a 'u64 ns' argument,
but rather takes an 'unsigned long ns' argument - which might only be 32-bits.
On FRV, this results in the kernel locking up because hrtimer_forward() passes
the result of a 64-bit multiplication to this function, for which the compiler
discards the top 32-bits - something that didn't happen when ktime_add_ns() was
called directly.

Then this replaces: MSDOS_MKMODE() by fat_make_mode(), fat_attr() by

And for root inode, those is used with ATTR_DIR instead of bogus

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.

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.

Impact: quick start and stop of function tracer
This patch adds a way to disable the function tracer quickly without
the need to run kstop_machine. It adds a new variable called
function_trace_stop which will stop the calls to functions from mcount
when set. This is just an on/off switch and does not handle recursion
like preempt_disable().
It's main purpose is to help other tracers/debuggers start and stop tracing
fuctions without the need to call kstop_machine.
The config option HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TEST is added for archs
that implement the testing of the function_trace_stop in the mcount
arch dependent code. Otherwise, the test is done in the C code.
x86 is the only arch at the moment that supports this.

Add a no_file_caps boot option when file capabilities are
compiled into the kernel (CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=y).
This allows distributions to ship a kernel with file capabilities
compiled in, without forcing users to use (and understand and
trust) them.
When no_file_caps is specified at boot, then when a process executes
a file, any file capabilities stored with that file will not be
used in the calculation of the process' new capability sets.
This means that booting with the no_file_caps boot option will
not be the same as booting a kernel with file capabilities
compiled out - in particular a task with CAP_SETPCAP will not
have any chance of passing capabilities to another task (which
isn't "really" possible anyway, and which may soon by killed
altogether by David Howells in any case), and it will instead
be able to put new capabilities in its pI. However since fI
will always be empty and pI is masked with fI, it gains the
task nothing.
We also support the extra prctl options, setting securebits and
dropping capabilities from the per-process bounding set.
The other remaining difference is that killpriv, task_setscheduler,
setioprio, and setnice will continue to be hooked. That will
be noticable in the case where a root task changed its uid
while keeping some caps, and another task owned by the new uid
tries to change settings for the more privileged task.

Nov 05 2008: (v4) trivial port on top of always-start-\

Impact: improve wakeup affinity on NUMA systems, tweak SMP systems
Given the fixes+tweaks to the wakeup-buddy code, re-tweak the domain
balancing defaults on NUMA and SMP systems.
Turn on SD_WAKE_AFFINE which was off on x86 NUMA - there's no reason
why we would not want to have wakeup affinity across nodes as well.
(we already do this in the standard NUMA template.)
lat_ctx on a NUMA box is particularly happy about this change:
before:
| phoenix:~/l> ./lat_ctx -s 0 2
| "size=0k ovr=2.60
| 2 5.70
after:
| phoenix:~/l> ./lat_ctx -s 0 2
| "size=0k ovr=2.65
| 2 2.07
a 2.75x speedup.
pipe-test is similarly happy about it too:
| phoenix:~/sched-tests> ./pipe-test
| 18.26 usecs/loop.
| 14.70 usecs/loop.
| 14.38 usecs/loop.
| 10.55 usecs/loop. # +WAKE_AFFINE on domain0+domain1
| 8.63 usecs/loop.
| 8.59 usecs/loop.
| 9.03 usecs/loop.
| 8.94 usecs/loop.
| 8.96 usecs/loop.
| 8.63 usecs/loop.
Also:
- disable SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE on NUMA and SMP domains (keep it for siblings)
- enable SD_WAKE_BALANCE on SMP domains

For "unlock" cycles to 16bit devices in 8bit compatibility mode we need
to use the byte addresses 0xaaa and 0x555. These effectively match
the word address 0x555 and 0x2aa, except the latter has its low bit set.
Most chips don't care about the value of the 'A-1' pin in x8 mode,
but some -- like the ST M29W320D -- do. So we need to be careful to
set it where appropriate.
cfi_send_gen_cmd is only ever passed addresses where the low byte
is 0x00, 0x55 or 0xaa. Of those, only addresses ending 0xaa are
affected by this patch, by masking in the extra low bit when the device
is known to be in compatibility mode.
[dwmw2: Do it only when (cmd_ofs & 0xff) == 0xaa]
v4: Fix stupid typo in cfi_build_cmd_addr that failed to compile
I'm writing this patch way to late at night.
v3: Bring all of the work back into cfi_build_cmd_addr
including calling of map_bankwidth(map) and cfi_interleave(cfi)
So every caller doesn't need to.
v2: Only modified the address if we our device_type is larger than our
bus width.

This provides feature-negotiation initialisation for both DCCP sockets
and DCCP request_sockets, to support feature negotiation during
connection setup.
It also resolves a FIXME regarding the congestion control
initialisation.
Thanks to Wei Yongjun for help with the IPv6 side of this patch.

A lookup table for feature-negotiation information, extracted from RFC
4340/42, is provided by this patch. All currently known features can
be found in this table, along with their feature location, their
default value, and type.

The changes to deliver hardware accelerated VLAN packets to packet
sockets (commit bc1d0411) caused a warning for non-NAPI drivers.
The __vlan_hwaccel_rx() function is called directly from the drivers
RX function, for non-NAPI drivers that means its still in RX IRQ
context:
[ 27.779463] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[ 27.779509] WARNING: at kernel/softirq.c:136 local_bh_enable+0x37/0x81()

Split hardware accelerated VLAN reception into two parts to fix this:
- __vlan_hwaccel_rx just stores the VLAN TCI and performs the VLAN
device lookup, then calls netif_receive_skb()/netif_rx()
- vlan_hwaccel_do_receive(), which is invoked by netif_receive_skb()
in softirq context, performs the real reception and delivery to
packet sockets.
