percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

In the transmit path of firewire-net (IPv4 over 1394), the following
race condition may occur:
- The networking soft IRQ inserts a datagram into the 1394 async
request transmit DMA.
- The 1394 async transmit completion tasklet runs to finish cleaning
up (unlink datagram from list of pending ones, release skb and
outbound 1394 transaction object) --- before the networking soft IRQ
had a chance to proceed and add the datagram to the list of pending
datagrams.
This caused a panic in the 1394 async transmit completion tasklet when
it dereferenced unitialized list heads:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15077
The fix is to add checks in the tx soft IRQ and in the tasklet to
determine which of these two is the last referrer to the transaction
object. Then handle the cleanup of the object by the last referrer
rather than assuming that the tasklet is always the last one.
There is another similar race: Between said tasklet and fwnet_close,
i.e. at ifdown. However, that race is much less likely to occur in
practice and shall be fixed in a separate update.

The AR req handler should not check the generation; higher level code
is the better place to handle bus generation changes. The target node
ID just needs to be checked for not being the "all nodes" address; in
this case don't handle the request and don't respond.
Use Address_Error and Type_Error rcodes as appropriate.

Fix some problems from "firewire: net: allow for unordered unit
discovery":
- fwnet_remove was missing a list_del, causing fwnet_probe to crash if
called after fwnet_remove, e.g. if firewire-ohci was unloaded and
reloaded.
- fwnet_probe should set its new_netdev flag only if it actually
allocated a net_device.
- Use dev_set_drvdata and dev_get_drvdata instead of deprecated direct
access to device.driver_data.

The .ndo_tx_timeout callback is currently without function; delete it.
Give .watchdog_timeo a proper time value; lower it to 2 seconds.
Decrease the .tx_queue_len from 1000 (as in Ethernet card drivers) to 10
because we have only 64 transaction labels available, and responders
might have further limits of their AR req contexts.

Decouple the creation and destruction of the net_device from the order
of discovery and removal of nodes with RFC 2734 unit directories since
there is no reliable order. The net_device is now created when the
first RFC 2734 unit on a card is discovered, and destroyed when the last
RFC 2734 unit on a card went away. This includes all remote units as
well as the local unit, which is therefore tracked as a peer now too.
Also, locking around the list of peers is slightly extended to guard
against peer removal. As a side effect, fwnet_peer.pdg_lock has become
superfluous and is deleted.
Peer data (max_rec, speed, node ID, generation) are updated more
carefully.
