The ability to have height 0 radix trees (a direct pointer to the data item
rather than going through a full node->slot) quietly disappeared with
old-2.6-bkcvs commit ffee171812d51652f9ba284302d9e5c5cc14bdfd. On 64-bit
machines this causes nearly 600 bytes to be used for every <= 4K file in
pagecache.
Re-introduce this feature, root tags stored in spare ->gfp_mask bits.
Simplify radix_tree_delete's complex tag clearing arrangement (which would
become even more complex) by just falling back to tag clearing functions
(the pagecache radix-tree never uses this path anyway, so the icache
savings will mean it's actually a speedup).
On my 4GB G5, this saves 8MB RAM per kernel kernel source+object tree in
pagecache.
Pagecache lookup, insertion, and removal speed for small files will also be
improved.
This makes RCU radix tree harder, but it's worth it.

Modify the gen_pool allocator (lib/genalloc.c) to utilize a bitmap scheme
instead of the buddy scheme. The purpose of this change is to eliminate
the touching of the actual memory being allocated.
Since the change modifies the interface, a change to the uncached allocator
(arch/ia64/kernel/uncached.c) is also required.
Both Andrey Volkov and Jes Sorenson have expressed a desire that the
gen_pool allocator not write to the memory being managed. See the

Current hugetlb strict accounting for shared mapping always assume mapping
starts at zero file offset and reserves pages between zero and size of the
file. This assumption often reserves (or lock down) a lot more pages then
necessary if application maps at none zero file offset. libhugetlbfs is
one example that requires proper reservation on shared mapping starts at
none zero offset.
This patch extends the reservation and hugetlb strict accounting to support
any arbitrary pair of (offset, len), resulting a much more robust and
accurate scheme. More importantly, it won't lock down any hugetlb pages
outside file mapping.

Also make the on-disk structures be fixed-size types, instead of "int",

This patch adds panic_on_oom sysctl under sys.vm.
When sysctl vm.panic_on_oom = 1, the kernel panics intead of killing rogue
processes. And if vm.panic_on_oom is 0 the kernel will do oom_kill() in
the same way as it does today. Of course, the default value is 0 and only
root can modifies it.
In general, oom_killer works well and kill rogue processes. So the whole
system can survive. But there are environments where panic is preferable
rather than kill some processes.

The buddy allocator has a requirement that boundaries between contigious
zones occur aligned with the the MAX_ORDER ranges. Where they do not we
will incorrectly merge pages cross zone boundaries. This can lead to pages
from the wrong zone being handed out.
Originally the buddy allocator would check that buddies were in the same
zone by referencing the zone start and end page frame numbers. This was
removed as it became very expensive and the buddy allocator already made
the assumption that zones boundaries were aligned.
It is clear that not all configurations and architectures are honouring
this alignment requirement. Therefore it seems safest to reintroduce
support for non-aligned zone boundaries. This patch introduces a new check
when considering a page a buddy it compares the zone_table index for the
two pages and refuses to merge the pages where they do not match. The
zone_table index is unique for each node/zone combination when
FLATMEM/DISCONTIGMEM is enabled and for each section/zone combination when
SPARSEMEM is enabled (a SPARSEMEM section is at least a MAX_ORDER size).

Give the statfs superblock operation a dentry pointer rather than a superblock
pointer.
This complements the get_sb() patch. That reduced the significance of
sb->s_root, allowing NFS to place a fake root there. However, NFS does
require a dentry to use as a target for the statfs operation. This permits
the root in the vfsmount to be used instead.

successfully.

Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that
permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint.
The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry
pointers. For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt()
which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the
superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour).
The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the
superblock pointer.
This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount
points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing. In
such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root
and mnt_sb would be set directly.
The patch also makes the following changes:
(*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount
pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change
very little.
(*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should
normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will
always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb().
(*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the
dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon().
This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that
aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The
currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root,
and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in
dentries being left unculled.
However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be
implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is
simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be
inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries
with child trees.
[*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree.
(*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of
changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

Upgrade the zlib_inflate implementation in the kernel from a patched
version 1.1.3/4 to a patched 1.2.3.
The code in the kernel is about seven years old and I noticed that the
external zlib library's inflate performance was significantly faster (~50%)
than the code in the kernel on ARM (and faster again on x86_32).
For comparison the newer deflate code is 20% slower on ARM and 50% slower
on x86_32 but gives an approx 1% compression ratio improvement. I don't
consider this to be an improvement for kernel use so have no plans to
change the zlib_deflate code.
Various changes have been made to the zlib code in the kernel, the most
significant being the extra functions/flush option used by ppp_deflate.
This update reimplements the features PPP needs to ensure it continues to
work.
This code has been tested on ARM under both JFFS2 (with zlib compression
enabled) and ppp_deflate and on x86_32. JFFS2 sees an approx. 10% real
world file read speed improvement.
This patch also removes ZLIB_VERSION as it no longer has a correct value.
We don't need version checks anyway as the kernel's module handling will
take care of that for us. This removal is also more in keeping with the
zlib author's wishes (http://www.zlib.net/zlib_faq.html#faq24) and I've
added something to the zlib.h header to note its a modified version.

VGA_MAP_MEM translates to ioremap() on some architectures. It makes sense
to do this to vga_vram_base, because we're going to access memory between
vga_vram_base and vga_vram_end.
But it doesn't really make sense to map starting at vga_vram_end, because
we aren't going to access memory starting there. On ia64, which always has
to be different, ioremapping vga_vram_end gives you something completely
incompatible with ioremapped vga_vram_start, so vga_vram_size ends up being
nonsense.
As a bonus, we often know the size up front, so we can use ioremap()
correctly, rather than giving it a zero size.

The race is that the shrink_dcache_memory shrinker could get called while a
filesystem is being unmounted, and could try to prune a dentry belonging to
that filesystem.
If it does, then it will call in to iput on the inode while the dentry is
no longer able to be found by the umounting process. If iput takes a
while, generic_shutdown_super could get all the way though
shrink_dcache_parent and shrink_dcache_anon and invalidate_inodes without
ever waiting on this particular inode.
Eventually the superblock gets freed anyway and if the iput tried to touch
it (which some filesystems certainly do), it will lose. The promised
"Self-destruct in 5 seconds" doesn't lead to a nice day.
The race is closed by holding s_umount while calling prune_one_dentry on
someone else's dentry. As a down_read_trylock is used,
shrink_dcache_memory will no longer try to prune the dentry of a filesystem
that is being unmounted, and unmount will not be able to start until any
such active prune_one_dentry completes.
This requires that prune_dcache *knows* which filesystem (if any) it is
doing the prune on behalf of so that it can be careful of other
filesystems. shrink_dcache_memory isn't called it on behalf of any
filesystem, and so is careful of everything.
shrink_dcache_anon is now passed a super_block rather than the s_anon list
out of the superblock, so it can get the s_anon list itself, and can pass
the superblock down to prune_dcache.
If prune_dcache finds a dentry that it cannot free, it leaves it where it
is (at the tail of the list) and exits, on the assumption that some other
thread will be removing that dentry soon. To try to make sure that some
work gets done, a limited number of dnetries which are untouchable are
skipped over while choosing the dentry to work on.
I believe this race was first found by Kirill Korotaev.

This patch removes the steal_locks() function.
steal_locks() doesn't work correctly with any filesystem that does it's own
lock management, including NFS, CIFS, etc.
In addition it has weird semantics on local filesystems in case tasks
sharing file-descriptor tables are doing POSIX locking operations in
parallel to execve().
The steal_locks() function has an effect on applications doing:
clone(CLONE_FILES)
/* in child */
lock
execve
lock
POSIX locks acquired before execve (by "child", "parent" or any further
task sharing files_struct) will after the execve be owned exclusively by
"child".
According to Chris Wright some LSB/LTP kind of suite triggers without the
stealing behavior, but there's no known real-world application that would
also fail.
Apps using NPTL are not affected, since all other threads are killed before
execve.
Apps using LinuxThreads are only affected if they
- have multiple threads during exec (LinuxThreads doesn't kill other
threads, the app may do it with pthread_kill_other_threads_np())
- rely on POSIX locks being inherited across exec
Both conditions are documented, but not their interaction.
Apps using clone() natively are affected if they
- use clone(CLONE_FILES)
- rely on POSIX locks being inherited across exec
The above scenarios are unlikely, but possible.
If the patch is vetoed, there's a plan B, that involves mostly keeping the
weird stealing semantics, but changing the way lock ownership is handled so
that network and local filesystems work consistently.
That would add more complexity though, so this solution seems to be
preferred by most people.

Add a revocation notification method to the key type and calls it whilst
the key's semaphore is still write-locked after setting the revocation
flag.
The patch then uses this to maintain a reference on the task_struct of the
process that calls request_key() for as long as the authorisation key
remains unrevoked.
This fixes a potential race between two processes both of which have
assumed the authority to instantiate a key (one may have forked the other
for example). The problem is that there's no locking around the check for
revocation of the auth key and the use of the task_struct it points to, nor
does the auth key keep a reference on the task_struct.
Access to the "context" pointer in the auth key must thenceforth be done
with the auth key semaphore held. The revocation method is called with the
target key semaphore held write-locked and the search of the context
process's keyrings is done with the auth key semaphore read-locked.
The check for the revocation state of the auth key just prior to searching
it is done after the auth key is read-locked for the search. This ensures
that the auth key can't be revoked between the check and the search.
The revocation notification method is added so that the context task_struct
can be released as soon as instantiation happens rather than waiting for
the auth key to be destroyed, thus avoiding the unnecessary pinning of the
requesting process.

This patch adds support for the ST m41t81 and m41t85 i2c rtc chips
to the existing m41t00 driver.
Since there is no way to reliably determine what type of rtc chip
is in use, the chip type is passed in via platform_data. The i2c
address and square wave frequency are passed in via platform_data
as well. To accommodate the use of platform_data, a new header

The m41t81 and m41t85 chips halt the updating of their time registers
while they are being accessed. They resume when a stop condition
exists on the i2c bus or when non-time related regs are accessed.

Some machine classes need to allow VFP support to be built into the
kernel, but still allow the kernel to run even though VFP isn't
present. Unfortunately, the kernel hard-codes VFP instructions
into the thread switch, which prevents this being run-time selectable.
Solve this by introducing a notifier which things such as VFP can
hook into to be informed of events which affect the VFP subsystem
(eg, creation and destruction of threads, switches between threads.)

During the recent "isa drivers using platform devices" discussion it was
pointed out that (ALSA) ISA drivers ran into the problem of not having
the option to fail driver load (device registration rather) upon not
finding their hardware due to a probe() error not being passed up
through the driver model. In the course of that, I suggested a seperate
ISA bus might be best; Russell King agreed and suggested this bus could
use the .match() method for the actual device discovery.
The attached does this. For this old non (generically) discoverable ISA
hardware only the driver itself can do discovery so as a difference with
the platform_bus, this isa_bus also distributes match() up to the driver.
As another difference: these devices only exist in the driver model due
to the driver creating them because it might want to drive them, meaning
that all device creation has been made internal as well.
The usage model this provides is nice, and has been acked from the ALSA
side by Takashi Iwai and Jaroslav Kysela. The ALSA driver module_init's
now (for oldisa-only drivers) become:
static int __init alsa_card_foo_init(void)
{
return isa_register_driver(&snd_foo_isa_driver, SNDRV_CARDS);
}
static void __exit alsa_card_foo_exit(void)
{
isa_unregister_driver(&snd_foo_isa_driver);
}
Quite like the other bus models therefore. This removes a lot of
duplicated init code from the ALSA ISA drivers.
The passed in isa_driver struct is the regular driver struct embedding a
struct device_driver, the normal probe/remove/shutdown/suspend/resume
callbacks, and as indicated that .match callback.
The "SNDRV_CARDS" you see being passed in is a "unsigned int ndev"
parameter, indicating how many devices to create and call our methods with.
The platform_driver callbacks are called with a platform_device param;
the isa_driver callbacks are being called with a "struct device *dev,
unsigned int id" pair directly -- with the device creation completely
internal to the bus it's much cleaner to not leak isa_dev's by passing
them in at all. The id is the only thing we ever want other then the
struct device * anyways, and it makes for nicer code in the callbacks as
well.
With this additional .match() callback ISA drivers have all options. If
ALSA would want to keep the old non-load behaviour, it could stick all
of the old .probe in .match, which would only keep them registered after
everything was found to be present and accounted for. If it wanted the
behaviour of always loading as it inadvertently did for a bit after the
changeover to platform devices, it could just not provide a .match() and
do everything in .probe() as before.
If it, as Takashi Iwai already suggested earlier as a way of following
the model from saner buses more closely, wants to load when a later bind
could conceivably succeed, it could use .match() for the prerequisites
(such as checking the user wants the card enabled and that port/irq/dma
values have been passed in) and .probe() for everything else. This is
the nicest model.
To the code...
This exports only two functions; isa_{,un}register_driver().
isa_register_driver() register's the struct device_driver, and then
loops over the passed in ndev creating devices and registering them.
This causes the bus match method to be called for them, which is:
int isa_bus_match(struct device *dev, struct device_driver *driver)
{
struct isa_driver *isa_driver = to_isa_driver(driver);
if (dev->platform_data == isa_driver) {
if (!isa_driver->match ||
isa_driver->match(dev, to_isa_dev(dev)->id))
return 1;
dev->platform_data = NULL;
}
return 0;
}
The first thing this does is check if this device is in fact one of this
driver's devices by seeing if the device's platform_data pointer is set
to this driver. Platform devices compare strings, but we don't need to
do that with everything being internal, so isa_register_driver() abuses
dev->platform_data as a isa_driver pointer which we can then check here.
I believe platform_data is available for this, but if rather not, moving
the isa_driver pointer to the private struct isa_dev is ofcourse fine as
well.
Then, if the the driver did not provide a .match, it matches. If it did,
the driver match() method is called to determine a match.
If it did _not_ match, dev->platform_data is reset to indicate this to
isa_register_driver which can then unregister the device again.
If during all this, there's any error, or no devices matched at all
everything is backed out again and the error, or -ENODEV, is returned.
isa_unregister_driver() just unregisters the matched devices and the
driver itself.
More global points/questions...
- I'm introducing include/linux/isa.h. It was available but is ofcourse
a somewhat generic name. Moving more isa stuff over to it in time is
ofcourse fine, so can I have it please? :)
- I'm using device_initcall() and added the isa.o (dependent on
CONFIG_ISA) after the base driver model things in the Makefile. Will
this do, or I really need to stick it in drivers/base/init.c, inside
#ifdef CONFIG_ISA? It's working fine.
Lastly -- I also looked, a bit, into integrating with PnP. "Old ISA"
could be another pnp_protocol, but this does not seem to be a good
match, largely due to the same reason platform_devices weren't -- the
devices do not have a life of their own outside the driver, meaning the
pnp_protocol {get,set}_resources callbacks would need to callback into
driver -- which again means you first need to _have_ that driver. Even
if there's clean way around that, you only end up inventing fake but
valid-form PnP IDs and generally catering to the PnP layer without any
practical advantages over this very simple isa_bus. The thing I also
suggested earlier about the user echoing values into /sys to set up the
hardware from userspace first is... well, cute, but a horrible idea from
a user standpoint.
Comments ofcourse appreciated. Hope it's okay. As said, the usage model
is nice at least.

Currently, the EDAC (error detection and correction) modules that are in
the kernel contain some features that need to be moved. After some good
feedback on the PCI Parity detection code and interface
(http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0603.1/0897.html) this
patch ADDs an new attribute to the pci_dev structure: Namely the
'broken_parity_status' bit.
When set this indicates that the respective hardware generates false
positives of Parity errors.
The EDAC "blacklist" solution was inferior and will be removed in a
future patch.
Also in this patch is a PCI quirk.c entry for an Infiniband PCI-X card
which generates false positive parity errors.
I am requesting comments on this AND on the possibility of a exposing
this 'broken_parity_status' bit to userland via the PCI device sysfs
directory for devices. This access would allow for enabling of this
feature on new devices and for old devices that have their drivers
updated. (SLES 9 SP3 did this on an ATI motherboard video device). There
is a need to update such a PCI attribute between kernel releases.
This patch just adds a storage place for the attribute and a quirk entry
for a known bad PCI device. PCI Parity reaper/harvestor operations are
in EDAC itself and will be refactored to use this PCI attribute instead
of its own mechanisms (which are currently disabled) in the future.

On partitioned PPC64 systems where a partition is given 1/10 of a
processor, we have seen mdelay() delaying for 10 times longer than it
should. The reason is that the generic mdelay(n) does n delays of 1
millisecond each. However, with 1/10 of a processor, we only get a
one-millisecond timeslice every 10ms. Thus each 1 millisecond delay
loop ends up taking 10ms elapsed time.
The solution is just to use the PPC64 udelay function, which uses the
timebase to ensure that the delay is based on elapsed time rather than
how much processing time the partition has been given. (Yes, the
generic mdelay uses the PPC64 udelay, but the problem is that the
start time gets reset every millisecond, and each time it gets reset
we lose another 9ms.)

Floating point exceptions should not be enabled by default,
as this setting impacts the performance on some CPUs, in
particular the Cell BE. Since the bits are inherited from
parent processes, the place to change the default is the
thread struct used for init.
glibc sets this up correctly per thread in its fesetenv
function, so user space should not be impacted by this
setting. None of the other common libc implementations
(uClibc, dietlibc, newlib, klibc) has support for fp
exceptions, so they are unlikely to be hit by this either.
There is a small risk that somebody wrote their own
application that manually sets the fpscr bits instead
of calling fesetenv, without changing the MSR bits as well.
Those programs will break with this change.
It probably makes sense to change glibc in the future
to be more clever about FE bits, so that when running
on a CPU where this is expensive, it disables exceptions
ASAP, while it keeps them enabled on CPUs where running
with exceptions on is cheaper than changing the state
often.

This patch hardcodes the data structures to a 64k

SPUs are registered as system devices, exposing attributes through
sysfs. Since the sysdev includes a kref, we can remove the one in
struct spu (it isn't used at the moment anyway).
Currently only the interrupt source and numa node attributes are added.

This is a first version of support for the Cell BE "Reliability,
Availability and Serviceability" features.
It doesn't yet handle some of the RAS interrupts (the ones described in
iic_is/iic_irr), I'm still working on a proper way to expose these. They
are essentially a cascaded controller by themselves (sic !) though I may
just handle them locally to the iic driver. I need also to sync with
David Erb on the way he hooked in the performance monitor interrupt.
So that's all for 2.6.17 and I'll do more work on that with my rework of
the powerpc interrupt layer that I'm hacking on at the moment.

Introduce __iowrite64_copy. It will be used by the Myri-10G Ethernet
driver to post requests to the NIC. This driver will be submitted soon.
__iowrite64_copy copies to I/O memory in units of 64 bits when possible (on
64 bit architectures). It reverts to __iowrite32_copy on 32 bit
architectures.
