The struct pnfs_osd_data_map data_map member of exofs_sb_info was never used after mount. In fact all it's members were duplicated by the ore_layout structure. So just remove the duplicated information. Also removed some stupid, but perfectly supported, restrictions on layout parameters. The case where num_devices is not divisible by mirror_count+1 is perfectly fine since the rotating device view will eventually use all the devices it can get.

2011-10-03genirq: percpu: allow interrupt type to be set at enable timeMarc Zyngier
As request_percpu_irq() doesn't allow for a percpu interrupt to have its type configured (it is generally impossible to configure it on all CPUs at once), add a 'type' argument to enable_percpu_irq(). This allows some low-level, board specific init code to be switched to a generic API.

2011-10-03genirq: Add support for per-cpu dev_id interruptsMarc Zyngier
The ARM GIC interrupt controller offers per CPU interrupts (PPIs), which are usually used to connect local timers to each core. Each CPU has its own private interface to the GIC, and only sees the PPIs that are directly connect to it. While these timers are separate devices and have a separate interrupt line to a core, they all use the same IRQ number. For these devices, request_irq() is not the right API as it assumes that an IRQ number is visible by a number of CPUs (through the affinity setting), but makes it very awkward to express that an IRQ number can be handled by all CPUs, and yet be a different interrupt line on each CPU, requiring a different dev_id cookie to be passed back to the handler. The *_percpu_irq() functions is designed to overcome these limitations, by providing a per-cpu dev_id vector: int request_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq, irq_handler_t handler, const char *devname, void __percpu *percpu_dev_id); void free_percpu_irq(unsigned int, void __percpu *); int setup_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq, struct irqaction *new); void remove_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq, struct irqaction *act); void enable_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq); void disable_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq); The API has a number of limitations: - no interrupt sharing - no threading - common handler across all the CPUs Once the interrupt is requested using setup_percpu_irq() or request_percpu_irq(), it must be enabled by each core that wishes its local interrupt to be delivered. Based on an initial patch by Thomas Gleixner.

2011-10-02PM / devfreq: Add basic governorsMyungJoo Ham
Four cpufreq-like governors are provided as examples. powersave: use the lowest frequency possible. The user (device) should set the polling_ms as 0 because polling is useless for this governor. performance: use the highest freqeuncy possible. The user (device) should set the polling_ms as 0 because polling is useless for this governor. userspace: use the user specified frequency stored at devfreq.user_set_freq. With sysfs support in the following patch, a user may set the value with the sysfs interface. simple_ondemand: simplified version of cpufreq's ondemand governor. When a user updates OPP entries (enable/disable/add), OPP framework automatically notifies devfreq to update operating frequency accordingly. Thus, devfreq users (device drivers) do not need to update devfreq manually with OPP entry updates or set polling_ms for powersave , performance, userspace, or any other "static" governors. Note that these are given only as basic examples for governors and any devices with devfreq may implement their own governors with the drivers and use them.

2011-10-02PM: Introduce devfreq: generic DVFS framework with device-specific OPPsMyungJoo Ham
With OPPs, a device may have multiple operable frequency and voltage sets. However, there can be multiple possible operable sets and a system will need to choose one from them. In order to reduce the power consumption (by reducing frequency and voltage) without affecting the performance too much, a Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS) scheme may be used. This patch introduces the DVFS capability to non-CPU devices with OPPs. DVFS is a techique whereby the frequency and supplied voltage of a device is adjusted on-the-fly. DVFS usually sets the frequency as low as possible with given conditions (such as QoS assurance) and adjusts voltage according to the chosen frequency in order to reduce power consumption and heat dissipation. The generic DVFS for devices, devfreq, may appear quite similar with /drivers/cpufreq. However, cpufreq does not allow to have multiple devices registered and is not suitable to have multiple heterogenous devices with different (but simple) governors. Normally, DVFS mechanism controls frequency based on the demand for the device, and then, chooses voltage based on the chosen frequency. devfreq also controls the frequency based on the governor's frequency recommendation and let OPP pick up the pair of frequency and voltage based on the recommended frequency. Then, the chosen OPP is passed to device driver's "target" callback. When PM QoS is going to be used with the devfreq device, the device driver should enable OPPs that are appropriate with the current PM QoS requests. In order to do so, the device driver may call opp_enable and opp_disable at the notifier callback of PM QoS so that PM QoS's update_target() call enables the appropriate OPPs. Note that at least one of OPPs should be enabled at any time; be careful when there is a transition.

For example, if a new OPP is inserted or enable/disable status of an OPP is changed, the notifier is executed.

2011-09-30mac80211: allow out-of-band EOSP notificationJohannes Berg
iwlwifi has a separate EOSP notification from the device, and to make use of that properly it needs to be passed to mac80211. To be able to mix with tx_status_irqsafe and rx_irqsafe it also needs to be an "_irqsafe" version in the sense that it goes through the tasklet, the actual flag clearing would be IRQ-safe but doing it directly would cause reordering issues. This is needed in the case of a P2P GO going into an absence period without transmitting any frames that should be driver-released as in this case there's no other way to inform mac80211 that the service period ended. Note that for drivers that don't use the _irqsafe functions another version of this function will be required. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-09-30mac80211: explicitly notify drivers of frame releaseJohannes Berg
iwlwifi needs to know the number of frames that are going to be sent to a station while it is asleep so it can properly handle the uCode blocking of that station. Before uAPSD, we got by by telling the device that a single frame was going to be released whenever we encountered IEEE80211_TX_CTL_POLL_RESPONSE. With uAPSD, however, that is no longer possible since there could be more than a single frame. To support this model, add a new callback to notify drivers when frames are going to be released.

2011-09-30mac80211: reply only once to each PS-pollJohannes Berg
If a PS-poll frame is retried (but was received) there is no way to detect that since it has no sequence number. As a consequence, the standard asks us to not react to PS-poll frames until the response to one made it out (was ACKed or lost). Implement this by using the WLAN_STA_SP flags to also indicate a PS-Poll "service period" and the IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP flag for the response packet to indicate the end of the "SP" as usual. We could use separate flags, but that will most likely completely confuse drivers, and while the standard doesn't exclude simultaneously polling using uAPSD and PS-Poll, doing that seems quite problematic.

2011-09-30mac80211: implement uAPSDJohannes Berg
Add uAPSD support to mac80211. This is probably not possible with all devices, so advertising it with the cfg80211 flag will be left up to drivers that want it. Due to my previous patches it is now a fairly straight-forward extension. Drivers need to have accurate TX status reporting for the EOSP frame. For drivers that buffer themselves, the provided APIs allow releasing the right number of frames, but then drivers need to set EOSP and more-data themselves. This is documented in more detail in the new code itself. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2011-09-30mac80211: allow releasing driver-buffered framesJohannes Berg
If there are frames for a station buffered in the driver, mac80211 announces those in the TIM IE but there's no way to release them. Add new API to release such frames and use it when the station polls for a frame. Since the API will soon also be used for uAPSD it is easily extensible. Note that before this change drivers announcing driver-buffered frames in the TIM bit actually will respond to a PS-Poll with a potentially lower priority frame (if there are any frames buffered in mac80211), after this patch a driver that hasn't been changed will no longer respond at all. This only affects ath9k, which will need to be fixed to implement the new API. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2011-09-30mac80211: split PS buffers into ACsJohannes Berg
For uAPSD support we'll need to have per-AC PS buffers. As this is a major undertaking, split the buffers before really adding support for uAPSD. This already makes some reference to the uapsd_queues variable, but for now that will never be non-zero. Since book-keeping is complicated, also change the logic for keeping a maximum of frames only and allow 64 frames per AC (up from 128 for a station).

2011-09-30mac80211: let drivers inform it about per TID buffered framesJohannes Berg
For uAPSD implementation, it is necessary to know on which ACs frames are buffered. mac80211 obviously knows about the frames it has buffered itself, but with aggregation many drivers buffer frames. Thus, mac80211 needs to be informed about this. For now, since we don't have APSD in any form, this will unconditionally set the TIM bit for the station but later with uAPSD only some ACs might cause the TIM bit to be set. ath9k is the only driver using this API and I only modify it in the most basic way, it won't be able to implement uAPSD with this yet. But it can't do that anyway since there's no way to selectively release frames to the peer yet. Since drivers will buffer frames per TID, let them inform mac80211 on a per TID basis, mac80211 will then sort out the AC mapping itself.

In addition, make sure all peers are removed on disassociation. A TDLS peer is first added just before link setup is initiated.

David reported: Attached below is a watered-down version of rt/tst-cpuclock2.c from GLIBC. Just build it with "gcc -o test test.c -lpthread -lrt" or similar. Run it several times, and you will see cases where the main thread will measure a process clock difference before and after the nanosleep which is smaller than the cpu-burner thread's individual thread clock difference. This doesn't make any sense since the cpu-burner thread is part of the top-level process's thread group. I've reproduced this on both x86-64 and sparc64 (using both 32-bit and 64-bit binaries).

This does not take time since the last schedule operation (tick or otherwise) into account. We can cure this by using task_sched_runtime() at the cost of having to take locks. This also means we can (and must) do away with thread_group_sched_runtime() since the modified thread_group_cputime() is now more accurate and would deadlock when called from thread_group_sched_runtime(). Aside of that it makes the function safe on 32 bit systems. The old code added t->se.sum_exec_runtime unprotected. sum_exec_runtime is a 64bit value and could be changed on another cpu at the same time.

Allow the xen balloon driver to populate its list of extra pages from more than one region of memory. This will allow platforms to provide (for example) a region of low memory and a region of high memory. The maximum possible number of extra regions is 128 (== E820MAX) which is quite large so xen_extra_mem is placed in __initdata.

2011-09-29xen/balloon: account for pages released during memory setupDavid Vrabel
In xen_memory_setup() pages that occur in gaps in the memory map are released back to Xen. This reduces the domain's current page count in the hypervisor. The Xen balloon driver does not correctly decrease its initial current_pages count to reflect this. If 'delta' pages are released and the target is adjusted the resulting reservation is always 'delta' less than the requested target. This affects dom0 if the initial allocation of pages overlaps the PCI memory region but won't affect most domU guests that have been setup with pseudo-physical memory maps that don't have gaps. Fix this by accouting for the released pages when starting the balloon driver. If the domain's targets are managed by xapi, the domain may eventually run out of memory and die because xapi currently gets its target calculations wrong and whenever it is restarted it always reduces the target by 'delta'.

2011-09-29xen: modify kernel mappings corresponding to granted pagesStefano Stabellini
If we want to use granted pages for AIO, changing the mappings of a user vma and the corresponding p2m is not enough, we also need to update the kernel mappings accordingly. Currently this is only needed for pages that are created for user usages through /dev/xen/gntdev. As in, pages that have been in use by the kernel and use the P2M will not need this special mapping. However there are no guarantees that in the future the kernel won't start accessing pages through the 1:1 even for internal usage. In order to avoid the complexity of dealing with highmem, we allocated the pages lowmem. We issue a HYPERVISOR_grant_table_op right away in m2p_add_override and we remove the mappings using another HYPERVISOR_grant_table_op in m2p_remove_override. Considering that m2p_add_override and m2p_remove_override are called once per page we use multicalls and hypercall batching. Use the kmap_op pointer directly as argument to do the mapping as it is guaranteed to be present up until the unmapping is done. Before issuing any unmapping multicalls, we need to make sure that the mapping has already being done, because we need the kmap->handle to be set correctly.

2011-09-28rcu: Simplify unboosting checksPaul E. McKenney
Commit 7765be (Fix RCU_BOOST race handling current->rcu_read_unlock_special) introduced a new ->rcu_boosted field in the task structure. This is redundant because the existing ->rcu_boost_mutex will be non-NULL at any time that ->rcu_boosted is nonzero. Therefore, this commit removes ->rcu_boosted and tests ->rcu_boost_mutex instead.

2011-09-28rcu: Move __rcu_read_unlock()'s barrier() within if-statementPaul E. McKenney
We only need to constrain the compiler if we are actually exiting the top-level RCU read-side critical section. This commit therefore moves the first barrier() cal in __rcu_read_unlock() to inside the "if" statement, thus avoiding needless register flushes for inner rcu_read_unlock() calls.

2011-09-28rcu: Improve rcu_assign_pointer() and RCU_INIT_POINTER() documentationPaul E. McKenney
The differences between rcu_assign_pointer() and RCU_INIT_POINTER() are subtle, and it is easy to use the the cheaper RCU_INIT_POINTER() when the more-expensive rcu_assign_pointer() should have been used instead. The consequences of this mistake are quite severe. This commit therefore carefully lays out the situations in which it it permissible to use RCU_INIT_POINTER(). Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2011-09-28rcu: Make rcu_assign_pointer() unconditionally insert a memory barrierEric Dumazet
Recent changes to gcc give warning messages on rcu_assign_pointers()'s checks that allow it to determine when it is OK to omit the memory barrier. Stephen Hemminger tried a number of gcc tricks to silence this warning, but #pragmas and CPP macros do not work together in the way that would be required to make this work. However, we now have RCU_INIT_POINTER(), which already omits this memory barrier, and which therefore may be used when assigning NULL to an RCU-protected pointer that is accessible to readers. This commit therefore makes rcu_assign_pointer() unconditionally emit the memory barrier.

2011-09-28rcu: Move rcu_head definition to types.hPaul E. McKenney
Take a first step towards untangling Linux kernel header files by placing the struct rcu_head definition into include/linux/types.h and including include/linux/types.h in include/linux/rcupdate.h where struct rcu_head used to be defined. The actual inclusion point for include/linux/types.h is with the rest of the #include directives rather than at the point where struct rcu_head used to be defined, as suggested by Mathieu Desnoyers. Once this is in place, then header files that need only rcu_head can include types.h rather than rcupdate.h. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2011-09-28rcu: Restore checks for blocking in RCU read-side critical sectionsPaul E. McKenney
Long ago, using TREE_RCU with PREEMPT would result in "scheduling while atomic" diagnostics if you blocked in an RCU read-side critical section. However, PREEMPT now implies TREE_PREEMPT_RCU, which defeats this diagnostic. This commit therefore adds a replacement diagnostic based on PROVE_RCU. Because rcu_lockdep_assert() and lockdep_rcu_dereference() are now being used for things that have nothing to do with rcu_dereference(), rename lockdep_rcu_dereference() to lockdep_rcu_suspicious() and add a third argument that is a string indicating what is suspicious. This third argument is passed in from a new third argument to rcu_lockdep_assert(). Update all calls to rcu_lockdep_assert() to add an informative third argument. Also, add a pair of rcu_lockdep_assert() calls from within rcu_note_context_switch(), one complaining if a context switch occurs in an RCU-bh read-side critical section and another complaining if a context switch occurs in an RCU-sched read-side critical section. These are present only if the PROVE_RCU kernel parameter is enabled. Finally, fix some checkpatch whitespace complaints in lockdep.c. Again, you must enable PROVE_RCU to see these new diagnostics. But you are enabling PROVE_RCU to check out new RCU uses in any case, aren't you? Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2011-09-29ptp: fix L2 event message recognitionRichard Cochran
The IEEE 1588 standard defines two kinds of messages, event and general messages. Event messages require time stamping, and general do not. When using UDP transport, two separate ports are used for the two message types. The BPF designed to recognize event messages incorrectly classifies L2 general messages as event messages. This commit fixes the issue by extending the filter to check the message type field for L2 PTP packets. Event messages are be distinguished from general messages by testing the "general" bit.
