Commit 2a6b6976 (ACPI: Store NVS state even when entering suspend to RAM) caused the ACPI suspend code save the NVS area during suspend and restore it during resume unconditionally, although it is known that some systems need to use acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs for hibernation to work. To allow the affected systems to avoid saving and restoring the NVS area during suspend to RAM and resume, introduce kernel command line option acpi_sleep=nonvs and make acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs work as its alias temporarily (add acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs to the feature removal file).

Mark Wagner reported OOM symptoms when sending UDP traffic over a macvtap link to a kvm receiver. This appears to be caused by the fact that macvtap packet queues are unlimited in length. This means that if the receiver can't keep up with the rate of flow, then we will hit OOM. Of course it gets worse if the OOM killer then decides to kill the receiver. This patch imposes a cap on the packet queue length, in the same way as the tuntap driver, using the device TX queue length. Please note that macvtap currently has no way of giving congestion notification, that means the software device TX queue cannot be used and packets will always be dropped once the macvtap driver queue fills up. This shouldn't be a great problem for the scenario where macvtap is used to feed a kvm receiver, as the traffic is most likely external in origin so congestion notification can't be applied anyway. Of course, if anybody decides to complain about guest-to-guest UDP packet loss down the track, then we may have to revisit this. Incidentally, this patch also fixes a real memory leak when macvtap_get_queue fails. Chris Wright noticed that for this patch to work, we need a non-zero TX queue length. This patch includes his work to change the default macvtap TX queue length to 500.

If a single-threaded process does a file-descriptor operation, and some other process accesses that same file descriptor via /proc, the current rcu_dereference_check_fdtable() can give a false-positive RCU-lockdep splat due to the reference count being increased by the /proc access after the reference-count check in fget_light() but before the check in rcu_dereference_check_fdtable(). This commit prevents this false positive by checking for a single-threaded process. To avoid #include hell, this commit uses the wrapper for thread_group_empty(current) defined by rcu_my_thread_group_empty() provided in a separate commit.

由 Bjorn Helgaas 提交于
If we fail to assign resources to a PCI BAR, this patch makes us try the original address from BIOS rather than leaving it disabled. Linux tries to make sure all PCI device BARs are inside the upstream PCI host bridge or P2P bridge apertures, reassigning BARs if necessary. Windows does similar reassignment. Before this patch, if we could not move a BAR into an aperture, we left the resource unassigned, i.e., at address zero. Windows leaves such BARs at the original BIOS addresses, and this patch makes Linux do the same. This is a bit ugly because we disable the resource long before we try to reassign it, so we have to keep track of the BIOS BAR address somewhere. For lack of a better place, I put it in the struct pci_dev. I think it would be cleaner to attempt the assignment immediately when the claim fails, so we could easily remember the original address. But we currently claim motherboard resources in the middle, after attempting to claim PCI resources and before assigning new PCI resources, and changing that is a fairly big job.

OCFS2 uses t_commit trigger to compute and store checksum of the just committed blocks. When a buffer has b_frozen_data, checksum is computed for it instead of b_data but this can result in an old checksum being written to the filesystem in the following scenario: 1) transaction1 is opened 2) handle1 is opened 3) journal_access(handle1, bh) - This sets jh->b_transaction to transaction1 4) modify(bh) 5) journal_dirty(handle1, bh) 6) handle1 is closed 7) start committing transaction1, opening transaction2 8) handle2 is opened 9) journal_access(handle2, bh) - This copies off b_frozen_data to make it safe for transaction1 to commit. jh->b_next_transaction is set to transaction2. 10) jbd2_journal_write_metadata() checksums b_frozen_data 11) the journal correctly writes b_frozen_data to the disk journal 12) handle2 is closed - There was no dirty call for the bh on handle2, so it is never queued for any more journal operation 13) Checkpointing finally happens, and it just spools the bh via normal buffer writeback. This will write b_data, which was never triggered on and thus contains a wrong (old) checksum. This patch fixes the problem by calling the trigger at the moment data is frozen for journal commit - i.e., either when b_frozen_data is created by do_get_write_access or just before we write a buffer to the log if b_frozen_data does not exist. We also rename the trigger to t_frozen as that better describes when it is called.

For some reason if we declare a static variable and then assign it later, and the assignment contains a __attribute__((__aligned__(#))), some versions of gcc will ignore it.

The fix for these versions of gcc seems to be to add the aligned attribute to the declaration as well.

This patch introduces 3 VFS accessors: 'sb_mark_dirty()', 'sb_mark_clean()', and 'sb_is_dirty()'. They simply set 'sb->s_dirt' or test 'sb->s_dirt'. The plan is to make every FS use these accessors later instead of manipulating the 'sb->s_dirt' flag directly. Ultimately, this change is a preparation for the periodic superblock synchronization optimization which is about preventing the "sync_supers" kernel thread from waking up even if there is nothing to synchronize. This patch does not do any functional change, just adds accessor functions.

First remove items from work_list as soon as we start working on them. This means we don't have to track any pending or visited state and can get rid of all the RCU magic freeing the work items - we can simply free them once the operation has finished. Second use a real completion for tracking synchronous requests - if the caller sets the completion pointer we complete it, otherwise use it as a boolean indicator that we can free the work item directly. Third unify struct wb_writeback_args and struct bdi_work into a single data structure, wb_writeback_work. Previous we set all parameters into a struct wb_writeback_args, copied it into struct bdi_work, copied it again on the stack to use it there. Instead of just allocate one structure dynamically or on the stack and use it all the way through the stack.

Reimplement augmented RB-trees without sprinkling extra branches all over the RB-tree code (which lives in the scheduler hot path). This approach is 'borrowed' from Fabio's BFQ implementation and relies on traversing the rebalance path after the RB-tree-op to correct the heap property for insertion/removal and make up for the damage done by the tree rotations. For insertion the rebalance path is trivially that from the new node upwards to the root, for removal it is that from the deepest node in the path from the to be removed node that will still be around after the removal.

Reducing real_num_queues needs to flush the qdisc otherwise skbs with queue_mappings greater then real_num_tx_queues can be sent to the underlying driver. The flow for this is, dev_queue_xmit() dev_pick_tx() skb_tx_hash() => hash using real_num_tx_queues skb_set_queue_mapping() ... qdisc_enqueue_root() => enqueue skb on txq from hash ... dev->real_num_tx_queues -= n ... sch_direct_xmit() dev_hard_start_xmit() ndo_start_xmit(skb,dev) => skb queue set with old hash skbs are enqueued on the qdisc with skb->queue_mapping set 0 < queue_mappings < real_num_tx_queues. When the driver decreases real_num_tx_queues skb's may be dequeued from the qdisc with a queue_mapping greater then real_num_tx_queues. This fixes a case in ixgbe where this was occurring with DCB and FCoE. Because the driver is using queue_mapping to map skbs to tx descriptor rings we can potentially map skbs to rings that no longer exist.

A __naked function is defined in C but with a body completely implemented by asm(), including any prologue and epilogue. These asm() bodies expect standard calling conventions for parameter passing. Older GCCs implement that correctly, but 4.[56] currently do not, see GCC PR44290. In the Linux kernel this breaks ARM, causing most arch/arm/mm/copypage-*.c modules to get miscompiled, resulting in kernel crashes during bootup. Part of the kernel fix is to augment the __naked function attribute to also imply noinline and noclone. This patch implements that, and has been verified to fix boot failures with gcc-4.5 compiled 2.6.34 and 2.6.35-rc1 kernels. The patch is a no-op with older GCCs.

Currently, the accelerated receive path for VLAN's will drop packets if the real device is an inactive slave and is not one of the special pkts tested for in skb_bond_should_drop(). This behavior is different then the non-accelerated path and for pkts over a bonded vlan. For example, vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx will be dropped in the vlan path and not delivered to any packet handlers at all. However, bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx and bond0 -> ethx will be delivered to handlers that match the exact dev, because the VLAN path checks the real_dev which is not a slave and netif_recv_skb() doesn't drop frames but only delivers them to exact matches. This patch adds a sk_buff flag which is used for tagging skbs that would previously been dropped and allows the skb to continue to skb_netif_recv(). Here we add logic to check for the deliver_no_wcard flag and if it is set only deliver to handlers that match exactly. This makes both paths above consistent and gives pkt handlers a way to identify skbs that come from inactive slaves. Without this patch in some configurations skbs will be delivered to handlers with exact matches and in others be dropped out right in the vlan path. I have tested the following 4 configurations in failover modes and load balancing modes. # bond0 -> ethx # vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx # bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx # bond0 -> ethx | vlanx -> -- Signed-off-by: NJohn Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

10, 233 is allocated officially to /dev/kmview which is shipping in Ubuntu and Debian distributions. vhost_net seem to have borrowed it without making a proper request and this causes regressions in the other distributions. vhost_net can use a dynamic minor so use that instead. Also update the file with a comment to try and avoid future misunderstandings. cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NAlan Cox <device@lanana.org> [ We should have caught this before 2.6.34 got released. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

If a filesystem writes more than one page in ->writepage, write_cache_pages fails to notice this and continues to attempt writeback when wbc->nr_to_write has gone negative - this trace was captured from XFS: wbc_writeback_start: towrt=1024 wbc_writepage: towrt=1024 wbc_writepage: towrt=0 wbc_writepage: towrt=-1 wbc_writepage: towrt=-5 wbc_writepage: towrt=-21 wbc_writepage: towrt=-85 This has adverse effects on filesystem writeback behaviour. write_cache_pages() needs to terminate after a certain number of pages are written, not after a certain number of calls to ->writepage are made. This is a regression introduced by 17bc6c30 ("vfs: Add no_nrwrite_index_update writeback control flag"), but cannot be reverted directly due to subsequent bug fixes that have gone in on top of it.

PROVE_RCU has a few issues with the cpu_cgroup because the scheduler typically holds rq->lock around the css rcu derefs but the generic cgroup code doesn't (and can't) know about that lock. Provide means to add extra checks to the css dereference and use that in the scheduler to annotate its users. The addition of rq->lock to these checks is correct because the cgroup_subsys::attach() method takes the rq->lock for each task it moves, therefore by holding that lock, we ensure the task is pinned to the current cgroup and the RCU derefence is valid. That leaves one genuine race in __sched_setscheduler() where we used task_group() without holding any of the required locks and thus raced with the cgroup code. Solve this by moving the check under the appropriate lock. Signed-off-by: NPeter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: "Paul E.

JMB362 is a new variant of jmicron controller which is similar to JMB360 but has two SATA ports instead of one. As there is no PATA port, single function AHCI mode can be used as in JMB360. Add pci quirk for JMB362. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reported-by: NAries Lee <arieslee@jmicron.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NJeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

These were placed in the header in ef665c1a to get the various SYSFS/MODULE config combintations to compile. That may have been necessary then, but it's not now. These functions are all local to module.c. Signed-off-by: NRusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com>
