2011-03-10block: remove per-queue pluggingJens Axboe
Code has been converted over to the new explicit on-stack plugging, and delay users have been converted to use the new API for that. So lets kill off the old plugging along with aops->sync_page(). Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>
2011-03-10block: initial patch for on-stack per-task pluggingJens Axboe
This patch adds support for creating a queuing context outside of the queue itself. This enables us to batch up pieces of IO before grabbing the block device queue lock and submitting them to the IO scheduler. The context is created on the stack of the process and assigned in the task structure, so that we can auto-unplug it if we hit a schedule event. The current queue plugging happens implicitly if IO is submitted to an empty device, yet callers have to remember to unplug that IO when they are going to wait for it. This is an ugly API and has caused bugs in the past. Additionally, it requires hacks in the vm (->sync_page() callback) to handle that logic. By switching to an explicit plugging scheme we make the API a lot nicer and can get rid of the ->sync_page() hack in the vm. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>
2011-03-10block: add API for delaying work/request_fn a little bitJens Axboe
Currently we use plugging for that, but as plugging is going away, we need an alternative mechanism. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

2011-02-21module: explicitly align module_version_attribute structureDmitry Torokhov
We force particular alignment when we generate attribute structures when generation MODULE_VERSION() data and we need to make sure that this alignment is followed when we iterate over these structures, otherwise we may crash on platforms whose natural alignment is not sizeof(void *), such as m68k.

2011-02-18Expand CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST to several other list operationsLinus Torvalds
When list debugging is enabled, we aim to readably show list corruption errors, and the basic list_add/list_del operations end up having extra debugging code in them to do some basic validation of the list entries. However, "list_del_init()" and "list_move[_tail]()" ended up avoiding the debug code due to how they were written. This fixes that. So the _next_ time we have list_move() problems with stale list entries, we'll hopefully have an easier time finding them.. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2011-02-17RTC: Revert UIE emulation removalJohn Stultz
Uwe pointed out that my alarm based UIE emulation is not sufficient to replace the older timer/polling based UIE emulation on devices where there is no alarm irq. This causes rtc devices without alarms to return -EINVAL to UIE ioctls. The fix is to re-instate the old timer/polling method for devices without alarm irqs. This patch reverts the following commits: 042620a018afcfba1d678062b62e46 - Remove UIE emulation 1daeddd5962acad1bea55e524fc0fa - Cleanup removed UIE emulation declaration b5cc8ca1c9c3a37eaddf709b2fd3e1 - Remove Kconfig symbol for UIE emulation The emulation mode will still need to be wired-in with a following patch before it will work.

2011-02-03tracing: Replace syscall_meta_data struct array with pointer arraySteven Rostedt
Currently the syscall_meta structures for the syscall tracepoints are placed in the __syscall_metadata section, and at link time, the linker makes one large array of all these syscall metadata structures. On boot up, this array is read (much like the initcall sections) and the syscall data is processed. The problem is that there is no guarantee that gcc will place complex structures nicely together in an array format. Two structures in the same file may be placed awkwardly, because gcc has no clue that they are suppose to be in an array. A hack was used previous to force the alignment to 4, to pack the structures together. But this caused alignment issues with other architectures (sparc). Instead of packing the structures into an array, the structures' addresses are now put into the __syscall_metadata section. As pointers are always the natural alignment, gcc should always pack them tightly together (otherwise initcall, extable, etc would also fail). By having the pointers to the structures in the section, we can still iterate the trace_events without causing unnecessary alignment problems with other architectures, or depending on the current behaviour of gcc that will likely change in the future just to tick us kernel developers off a little more. The __syscall_metadata section is also moved into the .init.data section as it is now only needed at boot up. Suggested-by: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Acked-by: David S.

2011-02-03tracepoints: Fix section alignment using pointer arrayMathieu Desnoyers
Make the tracepoints more robust, making them solid enough to handle compiler changes by not relying on anything based on compiler-specific behavior with respect to structure alignment. Implement an approach proposed by David Miller: use an array of const pointers to refer to the individual structures, and export this pointer array through the linker script rather than the structures per se. It will consume 32 extra bytes per tracepoint (24 for structure padding and 8 for the pointers), but are less likely to break due to compiler changes. History: commit 7e066fb8 tracepoints: add DECLARE_TRACE() and DEFINE_TRACE() added the aligned(32) type and variable attribute to the tracepoint structures to deal with gcc happily aligning statically defined structures on 32-byte multiples. One attempt was to use a 8-byte alignment for tracepoint structures by applying both the variable and type attribute to tracepoint structures definitions and declarations. It worked fine with gcc 4.5.1, but broke with gcc 4.4.4 and 4.4.5. The reason is that the "aligned" attribute only specify the _minimum_ alignment for a structure, leaving both the compiler and the linker free to align on larger multiples. Because tracepoint.c expects the structures to be placed as an array within each section, up-alignment cause NULL-pointer exceptions due to the extra unexpected padding.

FMODE_EXEC is a constant type of fmode_t but was used with normal integer constants. This results in following warnings from sparse. Fix it using new macro __FMODE_EXEC. fs/exec.c:116:58: warning: restricted fmode_t degrades to integer fs/exec.c:689:58: warning: restricted fmode_t degrades to integer fs/fcntl.c:777:9: warning: restricted fmode_t degrades to integer Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@gmail.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2011-02-02memcg: prevent endless loop when charging huge pages to near-limit groupJohannes Weiner
If reclaim after a failed charging was unsuccessful, the limits are checked again, just in case they settled by means of other tasks. This is all fine as long as every charge is of size PAGE_SIZE, because in that case, being below the limit means having at least PAGE_SIZE bytes available. But with transparent huge pages, we may end up in an endless loop where charging and reclaim fail, but we keep going because the limits are not yet exceeded, although not allowing for a huge page. Fix this up by explicitely checking for enough room, not just whether we are within limits.

2011-02-01netfilter: ecache: always set events bits, filter them laterPablo Neira Ayuso
For the following rule: iptables -I PREROUTING -t raw -j CT --ctevents assured The event delivered looks like the following: [UPDATE] tcp 6 src=192.168.0.2 dst=192.168.1.2 sport=37041 dport=80 src=192.168.1.2 dst=192.168.1.100 sport=80 dport=37041 [ASSURED] Note that the TCP protocol state is not included. For that reason the CT event filtering is not very useful for conntrackd. To resolve this issue, instead of conditionally setting the CT events bits based on the ctmask, we always set them and perform the filtering in the late stage, just before the delivery. Thus, the event delivered looks like the following: [UPDATE] tcp 6 432000 ESTABLISHED src=192.168.0.2 dst=192.168.1.2 sport=37041 dport=80 src=192.168.1.2 dst=192.168.1.100 sport=80 dport=37041 [ASSURED] Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
