When a user has SYS_ADMIN capabilities and uart->ops->startup returns
an error in uart_startup, we silently drop the error. We then return 0
and behave as if it didn't fail. (Not quite, since we set TTY_IO_ERROR
bit and leave ASYNC_INITIALIZED bit cleared.)

This all is to allow setserial to work with improperly configured or
unconfigured ports. User can thus set port properties and reconfigure
properly.

This patch only documents this behavior.

tty_operations->remove is normally called like:
queue_release_one_tty
 ->tty_shutdown
   ->tty_driver_remove_tty
     ->tty_operations->remove

However tty_shutdown() is called from queue_release_one_tty() only if
tty_operations->shutdown is NULL. But for pty, it is not.
pty_unix98_shutdown() is used there as ->shutdown.

So tty_operations->remove of pty (i.e. pty_unix98_remove()) is never
called. This results in invalid pty_count. I.e. what can be seen in
/proc/sys/kernel/pty/nr.

I see this was already reported at:
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2009/11/5/370
But it was not fixed since then.

This patch is kind of a hackish way. The problem lies in ->install. We
allocate there another tty (so-called tty->link). So ->install is
called once, but ->remove twice, for both tty and tty->link. The fix
here is to count both tty and tty->link and divide the count by 2 for
user.

And to have ->remove called, let's make tty_driver_remove_tty() global
and call that from pty_unix98_shutdown() (tty_operations->shutdown).

While at it, let's document that when ->shutdown is defined,
tty_shutdown() is not called.

This is to fix an issue where output will suddenly become very slow.
The problem occurs on 8250 UARTS with the hardware bug UART_BUG_THRE.

BACKGROUND
For normal UARTs (without UART_BUG_THRE): When the serial core layer
gets new transmit data and the transmitter is idle, it buffers the
data and calls the 8250s' serial8250_start_tx() routine which will
simply enable the TX interrupt in the IER register and return. This
should immediately fire a THRE interrupt and begin transmitting the
data.
For buggy UARTs (with UART_BUG_THRE): merely enabling the TX interrupt
in IER does not necessarily generate a new THRE interrupt.
Therefore, a background timer periodically checks to see if there is
pending data, and starts transmission if that is the case.

The bug happens on SMP systems when the system has nothing to transmit,
the transmit interrupt is disabled and the following sequence occurs:
- CPU0: The background timer routine serial8250_backup_timeout()
  starts and saves the state of the interrupt enable register (IER)
  and then disables all interrupts in IER. NOTE: The transmit interrupt
  (TI) bit is saved as disabled.
- CPU1: The serial core gets data to transmit, grabs the port lock and
  calls serial8250_start_tx() which enables the TI in IER.
- CPU0: serial8250_backup_timeout() waits for the port lock.
- CPU1: finishes (with TI enabled) and releases the port lock.
- CPU0: serial8250_backup_timeout() calls the interrupt routine which
  will transmit the next fifo's worth of data and then restores the
  IER from the previously saved value (TI disabled).
At this point, as long as the serial core has more transmit data
buffered, it will not call serial8250_start_tx() again and the
background timer routine will slowly transmit the data.

The fix is to have serial8250_start_tx() get the port lock before
it saves the IER state and release it after restoring IER. This will
prevent serial8250_start_tx() from running in parallel.

Since commit 1eb19a12 ("lib/sha1: use the git implementation of

depended on the larger 320-byte workspace, and now the sha1 workspace is
just 16 words (64 bytes).  So the assembly version would overwrite the
stack randomly.

The optimized asm version is also probably slower than the new improved
C version, so there's no reason to keep it around.  At least that was
the case in git, where what appears to be the same assembly language
version was removed two years ago because the optimized C BLK_SHA1 code
was faster.

The inode structure layout is largely random, and some of the vfs paths
really do care.  The path lookup in particular is already quite D$
intensive, and profiles show that accessing the 'inode->i_op->xyz'
fields is quite costly.

We already optimized the dcache to not unnecessarily load the d_op
structure for members that are often NULL using the DCACHE_OP_xyz bits
in dentry->d_flags, and this does something very similar for the inode
ops that are used during pathname lookup.

It also re-orders the fields so that the fields accessed by 'stat' are
together at the beginning of the inode structure, and roughly in the
order accessed.

The effect of this seems to be in the 1-2% range for an empty kernel
"make -j" run (which is fairly kernel-intensive, mostly in filename
lookup), so it's visible.  The numbers are fairly noisy, though, and
likely depend a lot on exact microarchitecture.  So there's more tuning
to be done.

ORE stands for "Objects Raid Engine"

This patch is a mechanical rename of everything that was in ios.c

engine will later be used by the pnfs objects layout driver.

* File ios.c => ore.c

* Declaration of types and API are moved from exofs.h to a new
  osd_ore.h

* All used types are prefixed by ore_ from their exofs_ name.

* Shift includes from exofs.h to osd_ore.h so osd_ore.h is
  independent, include it from exofs.h.

Other than a pure rename there are no other changes. Next patch
will move the ore into it's own module and will export the API
to be used by exofs and later the layout driver
Signed-off-by: NBoaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

Exofs raid engine was saving on memory space by having a single layout-info,
single pid, and a single device-table, global to the filesystem. Then passing
a credential and object_id info at the io_state level, private for each
inode. It would also devise this contraption of rotating the device table
view for each inode->ino to spread out the device usage.

This is not compatible with the pnfs-objects standard, demanding that
each inode can have it's own layout-info, device-table, and each object
component it's own pid, oid and creds.

So: Bring exofs raid engine to be usable for generic pnfs-objects use by:

* Define an exofs_comp structure that holds obj_id and credential info.

* Break up exofs_layout struct to an exofs_components structure that holds a
  possible array of exofs_comp and the array of devices + the size of the
  arrays.

* Add a "comps" parameter to get_io_state() that specifies the ids creds
  and device array to use for each IO.

  This enables to keep the layout global, but the device-table view, creds
  and IDs at the inode level. It only adds two 64bit to each inode, since
  some of these members already existed in another form.

* ios raid engine now access layout-info and comps-info through the passed
  pointers. Everything is pre-prepared by caller for generic access of
  these structures and arrays.

At the exofs Level:

* Super block holds an exofs_components struct that holds the device
  array, previously in layout. The devices there are in device-table
  order. The device-array is twice bigger and repeats the device-table
  twice so now each inode's device array can point to a random device
  and have a round-robin view of the table, making it compatible to
  previous exofs versions.

* Each inode has an exofs_components struct that is initialized at
  load time, with it's own view of the device table IDs and creds.
  When doing IO this gets passed to the io_state together with the
  layout.

While preforming this change. Bugs where found where credentials with the
wrong IDs where used to access the different SB objects (super.c). As well
as some dead code. It was never noticed because the target we use does not
check the credentials.

Signed-off-by: NBoaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

In future raid code we will need to know the IO offset/length
and if it's a read or write to determine some of the array
sizes we'll need.

So add a new exofs_get_rw_state() API for use when
writeing/reading. All other simple cases are left using the
old way.

The major change to this is that now we need to call
exofs_get_io_state later at inode.c::read_exec and
inode.c::write_exec when we actually know these things. So this
patch is kept separate so I can test things apart from other
changes.

Computers have become a lot faster since we compromised on the
partial MD4 hash which we use currently for performance reasons.

MD5 is a much safer choice, and is inline with both RFC1948 and
other ISS generators (OpenBSD, Solaris, etc.)

Furthermore, only having 24-bits of the sequence number be truly
unpredictable is a very serious limitation.  So the periodic
regeneration and 8-bit counter have been removed.  We compute and
use a full 32-bit sequence number.

For ipv6, DCCP was found to use a 32-bit truncated initial sequence
number (it needs 43-bits) and that is fixed here as well.

For ChromiumOS, we use SHA-1 to verify the integrity of the root

To improve boot performance, we investigated using the heavily optimized

see a 11.7% improvement in boot time.

10 reboots, remove slowest/fastest.

Before:

  Mean: 6.58 seconds Stdev: 0.14

After (with git sha-1, this patch):

  Mean: 5.89 seconds Stdev: 0.07

The other cool thing about the git SHA-1 implementation is that it only
needs 64 bytes of stack for the workspace while the original kernel
implementation needed 320 bytes.
