This patch adds mm->task_size to keep track of the task size of a given mm
and uses that to fix the powerpc vdso so that it uses the mm task size to
decide what pages to fault in instead of the current thread flags (which
broke when ptracing).
(akpm: I expect that mm_struct.task_size will become the way in which we
finally sort out the confusion between 32-bit processes and 32-bit mm's. It
may need tweaks, but at this stage this patch is powerpc-only.)

The only reason post_input exists at all is that it gives us the
potential to adjust the checksums incrementally in future which
we ought to do.
However, after thinking about it for a bit we can adjust the
checksums without using this post_input stuff at all. The crucial
point is that only the inner-most NAT-T SA needs to be considered
when adjusting checksums. What's more, the checksum adjustment
comes down to a single u32 due to the linearity of IP checksums.
We just happen to have a spare u32 lying around in our skb structure :)
When ip_summed is set to CHECKSUM_NONE on input, the value of skb->csum
is currently unused. All we have to do is to make that the checksum
adjustment and voila, there goes all the post_input and decap structures!
I've left in the decap data structures for now since it's intricately

A recent change requires cpu_possible_map to be initialized before
smp_sched_init() but most MIPS platforms were initializing their
processors in the prom_prepare_cpus callback of smp_prepare_cpus. The
simple fix of calling prom_prepare_cpus from one of the earlier SMP
initialization hooks doesn't work well either since IPIs may require
init_IRQ() to have completed, so bit the bullet and split
prom_prepare_cpus into two initialization functions, plat_smp_setup
which is called early from setup_arch and plat_prepare_cpus called where
prom_prepare_cpus used to be called.

- apicmaintimer didn't always work because it relied on state that was
set up time_init_gtod too late.
- The output for the used timer in early kernel log was misleading

I'm currently at the POSIX meeting and one thing covered was the
incompatibility of Linux's link() with the POSIX definition. The name.
Linux does not follow symlinks, POSIX requires it does.
Even if somebody thinks this is a good default behavior we cannot change this
because it would break the ABI. But the fact remains that some application
might want this behavior.
We have one chance to help implementing this without breaking the behavior.
For this we could use the new linkat interface which would need a new
flags parameter. If the new parameter is AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW the new
behavior could be invoked.
I do not want to introduce such a patch now. But we could add the
parameter now, just don't use it. The patch below would do this. Can we
get this late patch applied before the release more or less fixes the

Some allocations are restricted to a limited set of nodes (due to memory
policies or cpuset constraints). If the page allocator is not able to find
enough memory then that does not mean that overall system memory is low.
In particular going postal and more or less randomly shooting at processes
is not likely going to help the situation but may just lead to suicide (the
whole system coming down).
It is better to signal to the process that no memory exists given the
constraints that the process (or the configuration of the process) has
placed on the allocation behavior. The process may be killed but then the
sysadmin or developer can investigate the situation. The solution is
similar to what we do when running out of hugepages.
This patch adds a check before we kill processes. At that point
performance considerations do not matter much so we just scan the zonelist
and reconstruct a list of nodes. If the list of nodes does not contain all
online nodes then this is a constrained allocation and we should kill the
current process.

This provides an interface for arch code to find out how many
nanoseconds are going to be added on to xtime by the next call to
do_timer. The value returned is a fixed-point number in 52.12 format
in nanoseconds. The reason for this format is that it gives the
full precision that the timekeeping code is using internally.
The motivation for this is to fix a problem that has arisen on 32-bit
powerpc in that the value returned by do_gettimeofday drifts apart
from xtime if NTP is being used. PowerPC is now using a lockless
do_gettimeofday based on reading the timebase register and performing
some simple arithmetic. (This method of getting the time is also
exported to userspace via the VDSO.) However, the factor and offset
it uses were calculated based on the nominal tick length and weren't
being adjusted when NTP varied the tick length.
Note that 64-bit powerpc has had the lockless do_gettimeofday for a
long time now. It also had an extremely hairy routine that got called
from the 32-bit compat routine for adjtimex, which adjusted the
factor and offset according to what it thought the timekeeping code
was going to do. Not only was this only called if a 32-bit task did
adjtimex (i.e. not if a 64-bit task did adjtimex), it was also
duplicating computations from kernel/timer.c and it wasn't clear that
it was (still) correct.
The simple solution is to ask the timekeeping code how long the
current jiffy will be on each timer interrupt, after calling
do_timer. If this jiffy will be a different length from the last one,
we then need to compute new values for the factor and offset used in
the lockless do_gettimeofday. In this way we can keep xtime and
do_gettimeofday in sync, even when NTP is varying the tick length.
Note that when adjtimex varies the tick length, it almost always
introduces the variation from the next tick on. The only case I could
see where adjtimex would vary the length of the current tick is when
an old-style adjtime adjustment is being cancelled. (It's not clear
to me why the adjustment has to be cancelled immediately rather than
from the next tick on.) Thus I don't see any real need for a hook in
adjtimex; the rare case of an old-style adjustment being cancelled can
be fixed up at the next tick.

There were two mistakes in the register-read-on-(un)blank approach.
- First, without proper register (un)locking the value read back will always
be zero, and this is what I missed entirely until just now. Due to this,
the logic could not be verified at all and I tried some bogus checks which
are completely stupid.
- Second, the LCD status bit will always be set to zero when the backlight
has been turned off. Reading the value back during unblank will disable the
LCD unconditionally, regardless of the state it is supposed to be in, since
we set it to zero beforehand.
So this is what we do now:
- create a new variable in struct neofb_par, and use that to determine
whether to read back registers (initialized to true)
- before actually blanking the screen, read back the register to sense any
possible change made through Fn key combo
- use proper neoUnlock() / neoLock() to actually read something
- every call to neofb_blank() determines if we read back next time: blanking
disables readback, unblanking (FB_BLANK_UNBLANK) enables it
This should give us a nice and clean state machine. Has been thoroughly
tested on a Dell Latitude CPiA / NM220 Chip docked to a C/Dock2 with attached
CRT in all possible combinations of LCD/CRT on/off. I changed the config via
Fn key, let the console blank, unblanked by keypress - works flawlessly.

When a packet matching an IPsec policy is SNATed so it doesn't match any
policy anymore it looses its xfrm bundle, which makes xfrm4_output_finish
crash because of a NULL pointer dereference.
This patch directs these packets to the original output path instead. Since
the packets have already passed the POST_ROUTING hook, but need to start at
the beginning of the original output path which includes another
POST_ROUTING invocation, a flag is added to the IPCB to indicate that the
packet was rerouted and doesn't need to pass the POST_ROUTING hook again.

The original ia64 udelay() was simple, but flawed for platforms without
synchronized ITCs: a preemption and migration to another CPU during the
while-loop likely resulted in too-early termination or very, very
lengthy looping.
The first fix (now in 2.6.15) broke the delay loop into smaller,
non-preemptible chunks, reenabling preemption between the chunks. This
fix is flawed in that the total udelay is computed to be the sum of just
the non-premptible while-loop pieces, i.e., not counting the time spent
in the interim preemptible periods. If an interrupt or a migration
occurs during one of these interim periods, then that time is invisible
and only serves to lengthen the effective udelay().
This new fix backs out the current flawed fix and returns to a simple
udelay(), fully preemptible and interruptible. It implements two simple
alternative udelay() routines: one a default generic version that uses
ia64_get_itc(), and the other an sn-specific version that uses that
platform's RTC.

To find out if a packet needs to be handled by IPsec after SNAT, packets
are currently rerouted in POST_ROUTING and a new xfrm lookup is done. This
breaks SNAT of non-unicast packets to non-local addresses because the
packet is routed as incoming packet and no neighbour entry is bound to the
dst_entry. In general, it seems to be a bad idea to replace the dst_entry
after the packet was already sent to the output routine because its state
might not match what's expected.
This patch changes the xfrm lookup in POST_ROUTING to re-use the original
dst_entry without routing the packet again. This means no policy routing
can be used for transport mode transforms (which keep the original route)
when packets are SNATed to match the policy, but it looks like the best
we can do for now.

Make the FRV arch use virtual interrupt disablement because accesses to the
processor status register (PSR) are relatively slow and because we will
soon have the need to deal with multiple interrupt controls at the same
time (separate h/w and inter-core interrupts).
The way this is done is to dedicate one of the four integer condition code
registers (ICC2) to maintaining a virtual interrupt disablement state
whilst inside the kernel. This uses the ICC2.Z flag (Zero) to indicate
whether the interrupts are virtually disabled and the ICC2.C flag (Carry)
to indicate whether the interrupts are physically disabled.
ICC2.Z is set to indicate interrupts are virtually disabled. ICC2.C is set
to indicate interrupts are physically enabled. Under normal running
conditions Z==0 and C==1.
Disabling interrupts with local_irq_disable() doesn't then actually
physically disable interrupts - it merely sets ICC2.Z to 1. Should an
interrupt then happen, the exception prologue will note ICC2.Z is set and
branch out of line using one instruction (an unlikely BEQ). Here it will
physically disable interrupts and clear ICC2.C.
When it comes time to enable interrupts (local_irq_enable()), this simply
clears the ICC2.Z flag and invokes a trap #2 if both Z and C flags are
clear (the HI integer condition). This can be done with the TIHI
conditional trap instruction.
The trap then physically reenables interrupts and sets ICC2.C again. Upon
returning the interrupt will be taken as interrupts will then be enabled.
Note that whilst processing the trap, the whole exceptions system is
disabled, and so an interrupt can't happen till it returns.
If no pending interrupt had happened, ICC2.C would still be set, the HI
condition would not be fulfilled, and no trap will happen.
Saving interrupts (local_irq_save) is simply a matter of pulling the ICC2.Z
flag out of the CCR register, shifting it down and masking it off. This
gives a result of 0 if interrupts were enabled and 1 if they weren't.
Restoring interrupts (local_irq_restore) is then a matter of taking the
saved value mentioned previously and XOR'ing it against 1. If it was one,
the result will be zero, and if it was zero the result will be non-zero.
This result is then used to affect the ICC2.Z flag directly (it is a
condition code flag after all). An XOR instruction does not affect the
Carry flag, and so that bit of state is unchanged. The two flags can then
be sampled to see if they're both zero using the trap (TIHI) as for the
unconditional reenablement (local_irq_enable).
This patch also:
(1) Modifies the debugging stub (break.S) to handle single-stepping crossing
into the trap #2 handler and into virtually disabled interrupts.
(2) Removes superseded fixup pointers from the second instructions in the trap
tables (there's no a separate fixup table for this).
(3) Declares the trap #3 vector for use in .org directives in the trap table.
(4) Moves irq_enter() and irq_exit() in do_IRQ() to avoid problems with
virtual interrupt handling, and removes the duplicate code that has now
been folded into irq_exit() (softirq and preemption handling).
(5) Tells the compiler in the arch Makefile that ICC2 is now reserved.
(6) Documents the in-kernel ABI, including the virtual interrupts.
(7) Renames the old irq management functions to different names.

Revert commit d7102e95b7:
[PATCH] sched: filter affine wakeups
Apparently caused more than 10% performance regression for aim7 benchmark.
The setup in use is 16-cpu HP rx8620, 64Gb of memory and 12 MSA1000s with 144
disks. Each disk is 72Gb with a single ext3 filesystem (courtesy of HP, who
supplied benchmark results).
The problem is, for aim7, the wake-up pattern is random, but it still needs
load balancing action in the wake-up path to achieve best performance. With
the above commit, lack of load balancing hurts that workload.
However, for workloads like database transaction processing, the requirement
is exactly opposite. In the wake up path, best performance is achieved with
absolutely zero load balancing. We simply wake up the process on the CPU that
it was previously run. Worst performance is obtained when we do load
balancing at wake up.
There isn't an easy way to auto detect the workload characteristics. Ingo's
earlier patch that detects idle CPU and decide whether to load balance or not
doesn't perform with aim7 either since all CPUs are busy (it causes even
bigger perf. regression).
Revert commit d7102e95b7, which causes more
than 10% performance regression with aim7.

Currently, copy-on-write may change the physical address of a page even if the
user requested that the page is pinned in memory (either by mlock or by
get_user_pages). This happens if the process forks meanwhile, and the parent
writes to that page. As a result, the page is orphaned: in case of
get_user_pages, the application will never see any data hardware DMA's into
this page after the COW. In case of mlock'd memory, the parent is not getting
the realtime/security benefits of mlock.
In particular, this affects the Infiniband modules which do DMA from and into
user pages all the time.
This patch adds madvise options to control whether memory range is inherited
across fork. Useful e.g. for when hardware is doing DMA from/into these
pages. Could also be useful to an application wanting to speed up its forks
by cutting large areas out of consideration.

If 2 threads attached to the same process are blocking on different locks on
different files (maybe even on different servers) but have the same lock
arguments (i.e. same offset+length - actually quite common, since most
processes try to lock the entire file) then the first GRANTED call that wakes
one up will also wake the other.
Currently when the NLM_GRANTED callback comes in, lockd walks the list of
blocked locks in search of a match to the lock that the NLM server has
granted. Although it checks the lock pid, start and end, it fails to check
the filehandle and the server address.
By checking the filehandle and server IP address, we ensure that this only
happens if the locks truly are referencing the same file.

restore_gp_regs() copies 64-bit user fields into 32-bit variables,
and in this combination, the new __get_user_asm_ll32() clobbers too
many registers. It says:
/*

{ \
__asm__ __volatile__( \

"2: lw %D1, 4(%3) \n" \

: "0" (0), "r" (addr), "i" (-EFAULT)); \

and this requires val (%1) to be a 64-bit value. In the case I saw,
gcc was using $3 for the 32-bit val, and wasn't expecting $4 to be
clobbered.

The patch also fixes a bug in compat_sys_pselect7(): it was adding the new
timeout value to the old one and was returning that. It should just return
the new timeout value.

using the last interrupt offset in HPET. This resulted in x460 not

Shouldn't affect any other machine because they either use full HPET mode
or no HPET at all.

The *at patches introduced fstatat and, due to inusfficient research, I
used the newfstat functions generally as the guideline. The result is that
on 32-bit platforms we don't have all the information needed to implement
fstatat64.
This patch modifies the code to pass up 64-bit information if
__ARCH_WANT_STAT64 is defined. I renamed the syscall entry point to make
this clear. Other archs will continue to use the existing code. On x86-64
the compat code is implemented using a new sys32_ function. this is what
is done for the other stat syscalls as well.
This patch might break some other archs (those which define
__ARCH_WANT_STAT64 and which already wired up the syscall). Yet others
might need changes to accomodate the compatibility mode. I really don't
want to do that work because all this stat handling is a mess (more so in
glibc, but the kernel is also affected). It should be done by the arch
maintainers. I'll provide some stand-alone test shortly. Those who are
eager could compile glibc and run 'make check' (no installation needed).

It is possible that the reserved crashkernel region can be overlapped with
initrd since the bootloader sets the initrd location. When the initrd
region is freed, the second kernel memory will not be contiguous. The
Kexec_load can cause an oops since there is no contiguous memory to write
the second kernel or this memory could be used in the first kernel itself
and may not be part of the dump. For example, on powerpc, the initrd is
located at 36MB and the crashkernel starts at 32MB. The kexec_load caused
panic since writing into non-allocated memory (after 36MB). We could see
the similar issue even on other archs.
One possibility is to move the initrd outside of crashkernel region. But,
the initrd region will be freed anyway before the system is up. This patch
fixes this issue and frees only regions that are not part of crashkernel
memory in case overlaps.

This patch adds a windfarm module, windfarm_pm112, for the dual core G5s
(both 2 and 4 core models), keeping the machine from getting into
vacuum-cleaner mode ;) For proper credits, the patch was initially
written by Paul Mackerras, and slightly reworked by me to add overtemp
handling among others. The patch also removes the sysfs attributes from
windfarm_pm81 and windfarm_pm91 and instead adds code to the windfarm
core to automagically expose attributes for sensor & controls.

Compound pages on SMP systems can now often be freed from pagetables via
the release_pages path. This uses put_page_testzero which does not handle
compound pages at all. Releasing constituent pages from process mappings
decrements their count to a large negative number and leaks the reference
at the head page - net result is a memory leak.
The problem was hidden because the debug check in put_page_testzero itself
actually did take compound pages into consideration.
Fix the bug and the debug check.

With the latest 2.6.15 kernel builds for alpha on Debian, we ran into a
problem with undefined references to __cmpxchg_called_with_bad_pointer() in
a couple of kernel modules (xfs.ko and drm.ko; see
http://bugs.debian.org/347556).
It looks like people have been trying to out-clever each other wrt the
definition of "inline" on this architecture :), with the result that
__cmpxchg(), which must be inlined so the compiler can see its argument is
const, is not guaranteed to be inlined. Indeed, it was not being inlined
when building with -Os.
The attached patch fixes the issue by adding an
__attribute__((always_inline)) explicitly to the definition of __cmpxchg()
instead of relying on redefines of "inline" elsewhere to make this happen.

Currently, x86_64 and ia64 arches do not clear the corresponding bits in

is buggy since there are pieces of common code where the cpumask is checked
in the cpu down code path to decide on things (like in the slab down path).
PPC does the right thing, but x86_64 and ia64 don't (This was the reason
Sonny hit upon a slab bug during cpu offline on ppc and could not reproduce

Ben points out that:
When writing files out using O_SYNC, jbd's 1 jiffy delay results in a
significant drop in throughput as the disk sits idle. The patch below
results in a 4-5x performance improvement (from 6.5MB/s to ~24-30MB/s on my
IDE test box) when writing out files using O_SYNC.
So optimise the batching code by omitting it entirely if the process which is
doing a sync write is the same as the one which did the most recent sync
write. If that's true, we're unlikely to get any other processes joining the
transaction.
(Has been in -mm for ages - it took me a long time to get on to performance
testing it)
Numbers, on write-cache-disabled IDE:
/usr/bin/time -p synctest -n 10 -uf -t 1 -p 1 dir-name
Unpatched:
40 seconds
Patched:
35 seconds
Batching disabled:
35 seconds
This is the problematic single-process-doing-fsync case. With multiple
fsyncing processes the numbers are AFACIT unaltered by the patch.
Aside: performance testing and instrumentation shows that the transaction
batching almost doesn't help (testing with synctest -n 1 -uf -t 100 -p 10
dir-name on non-writeback-caching IDE). This is because by the time one
process is running a synchronous commit, a bunch of other processes already
have a transaction handle open, so they're all going to batch into the same
transaction anyway.
The batching seems to offer maybe 5-10% speedup with this workload, but I'm
pretty sure it was more important than that when it was first developed 4-odd
years ago...

The pktcdvd driver defaulted to its maximum allowed packet length when it

On some broken motherboards (at least one NForce3 based AMD64 laptop)
the PIT timer runs at a incorrect frequency. This patch adds a new
option "apicpmtimer" that allows to use the APIC timer and calibrate it
using the PMTimer. It requires the earlier patch that allows to run the
main timer from the APIC.
Specifying apicpmtimer implies apicmaintimer.
The option defaults to off for now.
I tested it on a few systems and the resulting APIC timer frequencies
were usually a bit off, but always <1%, which should be tolerable.
TBD figure out heuristic to enable this automatically on the affected
systems TBD perhaps do it on all NForce3s or using DMI?

Another piece from the no-idle-tick patch.
This can be enabled with the "apicmaintimer" option.
This is mainly useful when the PIT/HPET interrupt is unreliable.
Note there are some systems that are known to stop the APIC
timer in C3. For those it will never work, but this case
should be automatically detected.
It also only works with PM timer right now. When HPET is used
the way the main timer handler computes the delay doesn't work.
It should be a bit more efficient because there is one less
regular interrupt to process on the boot processor.

The patch implements cpu topology exportation by sysfs.
Items (attributes) are similar to /proc/cpuinfo.
1) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/physical_package_id:
represent the physical package id of cpu X;
2) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/core_id:
represent the cpu core id to cpu X;
3) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/thread_siblings:
represent the thread siblings to cpu X in the same core;
4) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/core_siblings:
represent the thread siblings to cpu X in the same physical package;
To implement it in an architecture-neutral way, a new source file,
driver/base/topology.c, is to export the 5 attributes.
If one architecture wants to support this feature, it just needs to
implement 4 defines, typically in file include/asm-XXX/topology.h.
The 4 defines are:
#define topology_physical_package_id(cpu)
#define topology_core_id(cpu)
#define topology_thread_siblings(cpu)
#define topology_core_siblings(cpu)
The type of **_id is int.
The type of siblings is cpumask_t.
To be consistent on all architectures, the 4 attributes should have
deafult values if their values are unavailable. Below is the rule.
1) physical_package_id: If cpu has no physical package id, -1 is the
default value.
2) core_id: If cpu doesn't support multi-core, its core id is 0.
3) thread_siblings: Just include itself, if the cpu doesn't support
HT/multi-thread.
4) core_siblings: Just include itself, if the cpu doesn't support
multi-core and HT/Multi-thread.
So be careful when declaring the 4 defines in include/asm-XXX/topology.h.
If an attribute isn't defined on an architecture, it won't be exported.
Thank Nathan, Greg, Andi, Paul and Venki.

This fixes the code like this:
bh = sb_find_get_block (sb, tmp + j);
if ((bh && DATA_BUFFER_USED(bh)) || tmp != fs32_to_cpu(sb, *p)) {
retry = 1;
brelse (bh);
goto next1;
}
bforget (bh);
sb_find_get_block() ordinarily returns a buffer_head with b_count>=2, and
this code assume that in case if "b_count>1" buffer is used, so this caused
infinite loop.
(akpm: that is-the-buffer-busy code is incomprehensible. Good riddance. Use
of block_truncate_page() seems sane).

"rm" command, on file system with "ufs1" type cause system hang up. This
is, in fact, not so bad as it seems to be, because of after that in "kernel
control path" there are 3-4 places which may cause "oops".
So the first patch fix oopses, and the second patch fix "kernel hang up".
"oops" appears because of reading of group's summary info partly wrong, and
access to not first group's summary info cause "oops".

I noticed that list.h init functions were evaluating macro arguments
multiple times and thought it might be nice to protect the unsuspecting
caller. Converting the macros to inline functions seems to reduce code
size, too. A i386 defconfig build with gcc 3.3.3 from fc4:

SCTP used to "fast retransmit" a TSN every time we hit the number
of missing reports for the TSN. However the Implementers Guide
specifies that we should only "fast retransmit" a given TSN once.
Subsequent retransmits should be timeouts only. Also change the
number of missing reports to 3 as per the latest IG(similar to TCP).

If SAL_CACHE_FLUSH drops interrupts, complain about it and fall back to
using PAL_CACHE_FLUSH instead.
This is to work around a defect in HP rx5670 firmware: when an interrupt
occurs during SAL_CACHE_FLUSH, SAL drops the interrupt but leaves it marked
"in-service", which leaves the interrupt (and others of equal or lower
priority) masked.

This patch adds support for SIIG 8-port boards. These boards have 4 ports in

too.

Most of the 64 bit architectures will zero extend the first argument to
compat_sys_{openat,newfstatat,futimesat} which will fail if the 32 bit
syscall was passed AT_FDCWD (which is a small negative number). Declare
the first argument to be an unsigned int which will force the correct
sign extension when the internal functions are called in each case.
Also, do some small white space cleanups in fs/compat.c.

This fixes a bug whereby if two processes try to look up the same auth_gss
credential, they may end up creating two creds, and triggering two upcalls
because the upcall is performed before the credential is added to the
credcache.
Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
When we look up a new cred in the auth_gss downcall so that we can stuff
the credcache, we do not want that lookup to queue up an upcall in order
to initialise it. To do an upcall here not only redundant, but since we
are already holding the inode->i_mutex, it will trigger a lock recursion.
This patch allows rpcauth cache searches to indicate that they can cope
with uninitialised credentials.
