2010-05-17DMAENGINE: extend the control command to include an argLinus Walleij

2010-05-17writeback: fix WB_SYNC_NONE writeback from umountJens Axboe
When umount calls sync_filesystem(), we first do a WB_SYNC_NONE writeback to kick off writeback of pending dirty inodes, then follow that up with a WB_SYNC_ALL to wait for it. Since umount already holds the sb s_umount mutex, WB_SYNC_NONE ends up doing nothing and all writeback happens as WB_SYNC_ALL. This can greatly slow down umount, since WB_SYNC_ALL writeback is a data integrity operation and thus a bigger hammer than simple WB_SYNC_NONE. For barrier aware file systems it's a lot slower.

This patch creates a port_id member in struct fc_lport. This allows libfc to just deal with fc_lport instances instead of calling into the fc_host to get the port_id. This change helps in only using symbols necessary for operation from the libfc structures. libfc still needs to change the fc_host_port_id() if the port_id changes so the presentation layer (scsi_transport_fc) can provide the user with the correct value, but libfc shouldn't rely on the presentation layer for operational values.

To simplify metadata tracking for delalloc writes, ext4 will simply claim metadata blocks at allocation time, without first speculatively reserving the worst case and then freeing what was not used.

2010-05-16net: Introduce sk_route_nocapsEric Dumazet
TCP-MD5 sessions have intermittent failures, when route cache is invalidated. ip_queue_xmit() has to find a new route, calls sk_setup_caps(sk, &rt->u.dst), destroying the sk->sk_route_caps &= ~NETIF_F_GSO_MASK that MD5 desperately try to make all over its way (from tcp_transmit_skb() for example) So we send few bad packets, and everything is fine when tcp_transmit_skb() is called again for this socket. Since ip_queue_xmit() is at a lower level than TCP-MD5, I chose to use a socket field, sk_route_nocaps, containing bits to mask on sk_route_caps.

2010-05-15net: Consistent skb timestampingEric Dumazet
With RPS inclusion, skb timestamping is not consistent in RX path. If netif_receive_skb() is used, its deferred after RPS dispatch. If netif_rx() is used, its done before RPS dispatch. This can give strange tcpdump timestamps results. I think timestamping should be done as soon as possible in the receive path, to get meaningful values (ie timestamps taken at the time packet was delivered by NIC driver to our stack), even if NAPI already can defer timestamping a bit (RPS can help to reduce the gap) Tom Herbert prefer to sample timestamps after RPS dispatch. In case sampling is expensive (HPET/acpi_pm on x86), this makes sense. Let admins switch from one mode to another, using a new sysctl, /proc/sys/net/core/netdev_tstamp_prequeue Its default value (1), means timestamps are taken as soon as possible, before backlog queueing, giving accurate timestamps. Setting a 0 value permits to sample timestamps when processing backlog, after RPS dispatch, to lower the load of the pre-RPS cpu.

2010-05-15Fix the regression created by "set S_DEAD on unlink()..." commitAl Viro
1) i_flags simply doesn't work for mount/unlink race prevention; we may have many links to file and rm on one of those obviously shouldn't prevent bind on top of another later on. To fix it right way we need to mark _dentry_ as unsuitable for mounting upon; new flag (DCACHE_CANT_MOUNT) is protected by d_flags and i_mutex on the inode in question. Set it (with dont_mount(dentry)) in unlink/rmdir/etc., check (with cant_mount(dentry)) in places in namespace.c that used to check for S_DEAD. Setting S_DEAD is still needed in places where we used to set it (for directories getting killed), since we rely on it for readdir/rmdir race prevention. 2) rename()/mount() protection has another bogosity - we unhash the target before we'd checked that it's not a mountpoint. Fixed. 3) ancient bogosity in pivot_root() - we locked i_mutex on the right directory, but checked S_DEAD on the different (and wrong) one. Noticed and fixed.

2010-05-14tracing: Comment the use of event_mutex with trace event flagsSteven Rostedt
The flags variable is protected by the event_mutex when modifying, but the event_mutex is not held when reading the variable. This is due to the fact that the reads occur in critical sections where taking a mutex (or even a spinlock) is not wanted. But the two flags that exist (enable and filter_active) have the code written as such to handle the reads to not need a lock. The enable flag is used just to know if the event is enabled or not and its use is always under the event_mutex. Whether or not the event is actually enabled is really determined by the tracepoint being registered. The flag is just a way to let the code know if the tracepoint is registered. The filter_active is different. It is read without the lock. If it is set, then the event probes jump to the filter code. There can be a slight mismatch between filters available and filter_active. If the flag is set but no filters are available, the code safely jumps to a filter nop. If the flag is not set and the filters are available, then the filters are skipped. This is acceptable since filters are usually set before tracing or they are set by humans, which would not notice the slight delay that this causes. v2: Fixed typo: "cacheing" -> "caching" Reported-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Acked-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Cc: Tom Zanussi <tzanussi@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2010-05-14libata: make sff_irq_on() method optionalSergei Shtylyov
Now, with the introduction of the sff_set_devctl() method, we can use it in sff_irq_on() method too -- that way its implementations in 'pata_bf54x' and 'pata_scc' become virtually identical to ata_sff_irq_on(). The sff_irq_on() method now becomes quite superfluous, and the only reason not to remove it completely is the existence of the 'pata_octeon_cf' driver which implements it as an empty function. Just make the method optional then, with ata_sff_irq_on() becoming generic taskfile-bound function, still global for the 'pata_bf54x' driver to be able to call it from its thaw() and postreset() methods. While at it, make the sff_irq_on() method and ata_sff_irq_on() return 'void' as the result is always ignored anyway.

2010-05-14libata: introduce sff_set_devctl() methodSergei Shtylyov
The set of libata's taskfile access methods is clearly incomplete as it lacks a method to write to the device control register -- which forces drivers like 'pata_bf54x' and 'pata_scc' to implement more "high level" (and more weighty) methods like freeze() and postreset(). So, introduce the optional sff_set_devctl() method which the drivers only have to implement if the standard iowrite8() can't be used (just like the existing sff_check_altstatus() method) and make use of it in the freeze() and postreset() method implementations (I could also have used it in softreset() method but it also reads other taskfile registers without using tf_read() making that quite pointless); this makes freeze() method implementations in the 'pata_bf54x' and 'pata_scc' methods virtually identical to ata_sff_freeze(), so we can get rid of them completely.

2010-05-14libata: use longer 0xff wait if parallel scan is enabledTejun Heo
There are some SATA devices which take relatively long to get out of 0xff status after reset. In libata, this timeout is determined by ATA_TMOUT_FF_WAIT. Quantum GoVault is the worst requring about 2s for reliable detection. However, because 2s 0xff timeout can introduce rather long spurious delay during boot, libata has been compromising at the next longest timeout of 800ms for HHD424020F7SV00 iVDR drive. Now that parallel scan is in place for common drivers, libata can afford 2s 0xff timeout. Use 2s 0xff timeout if parallel scan is enabled. Please note that the chance of spurious wait is pretty slim w/ working SCR access so this will only affect SATA controllers w/o SCR access which isn't too common these days. Please read the following thread for more information on the GoVault drive. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/14545/focus=14663 Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Gary Hade <garyhade@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
