      ubd: fix incorrect sector handling during request restart · 47526903
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Commit f81f2f7c (ubd: drop unnecessary rq->sector manipulation)
      dropped request->sector manipulation in preparation for global request
      handling cleanup; unfortunately, it incorrectly assumed that the
      updated sector wasn't being used.
      
      ubd tries to issue as many requests as possible to io_thread.  When
      issuing fails due to memory pressure or other reasons, the device is
      put on the restart list and issuing stops.  On IO completion, devices
      on the restart list are scanned and IO issuing is restarted.
      
      ubd issues IOs sg-by-sg and issuing can be stopped in the middle of a
      request, so each device on the restart queue needs to remember where
      to restart in its current request.  ubd needs to keep track of the
      issue position itself because,
      
      * blk_rq_pos(req) is now updated by the block layer to keep track of
        _completion_ position.
      
      * Multiple io_req's for the current request may be in flight, so it's
        difficult to tell where blk_rq_pos(req) currently is.
      
      Add ubd->rq_pos to keep track of the issue position and use it to
      correctly restart io_req issue.

      Don't dump task struct in a.out core-dumps · 0eead9ab
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      akiphie points out that a.out core-dumps have that odd task struct
      dumping that was never used and was never really a good idea (it goes
      back into the mists of history, probably the original core-dumping
      code).  Just remove it.
      
      Also do the access_ok() check on dump_write().  It probably doesn't
      matter (since normal filesystems all seem to do it anyway), but he
      points out that it's normally done by the VFS layer, so ...
      
      [ I suspect that we should possibly do "vfs_write()" instead of
        calling ->write directly.  That also does the whole fsnotify and write
        statistics thing, which may or may not be a good idea. ]
      
      And just to be anal, do this all for the x86-64 32-bit a.out emulation
      code too, even though it's not enabled (and won't currently even
      compile)

      x86, numa: For each node, register the memory blocks actually used · 73cf624d
      Yinghai Lu 提交于
      Russ reported SGI UV is broken recently. He said:
      
      | The SRAT table shows that memory range is spread over two nodes.
      |
      | SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 100000000-800000000
      | SRAT: Node 1 PXM 1 800000000-1000000000
      | SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 1000000000-1080000000
      |
      |Previously, the kernel early_node_map[] would show three entries
      |with the proper node.
      |
      |[    0.000000]     0: 0x00100000 -> 0x00800000
      |[    0.000000]     1: 0x00800000 -> 0x01000000
      |[    0.000000]     0: 0x01000000 -> 0x01080000
      |
      |The problem is recent community kernel early_node_map[] shows
      |only two entries with the node 0 entry overlapping the node 1
      |entry.
      |
      |    0: 0x00100000 -> 0x01080000

      |    x86: Export srat physical topology
      
      Before that commit, register_active_regions() is called for every SRAT memory
      entry right away.
      
      Use nodememblk_range[] instead of nodes[] in order to make sure we
      capture the actual memory blocks registered with each node.  nodes[]
      contains an extended range which spans all memory regions associated
      with a node, but that does not mean that all the memory in between are
      included.

      KVM: x86: Move TSC reset out of vmcb_init · 47008cd8
      Zachary Amsden 提交于
      The VMCB is reset whenever we receive a startup IPI, so Linux is setting
      TSC back to zero happens very late in the boot process and destabilizing
      the TSC.  Instead, just set TSC to zero once at VCPU creation time.
      
      Why the separate patch?  So git-bisect is your friend.

      On reset, VMCB TSC should be set to zero.  Instead, code was setting
      tsc_offset to zero, which passes through the underlying TSC.

      x86, AMD, MCE thresholding: Fix the MCi_MISCj iteration order · 6dcbfe4f
      Borislav Petkov 提交于
      This fixes possible cases of not collecting valid error info in
      the MCE error thresholding groups on F10h hardware.
      
      The current code contains a subtle problem of checking only the
      Valid bit of MSR0000_0413 (which is MC4_MISC0 - DRAM
      thresholding group) in its first iteration and breaking out if
      the bit is cleared.
      
      But (!), this MSR contains an offset value, BlkPtr[31:24], which
      points to the remaining MSRs in this thresholding group which
      might contain valid information too. But if we bail out only
      after we checked the valid bit in the first MSR and not the
      block pointer too, we miss that other information.
      
      The thing is, MC4_MISC0[BlkPtr] is not predicated on
      MCi_STATUS[MiscV] or MC4_MISC0[Valid] and should be checked
      prior to iterating over the MCI_MISCj thresholding group,
      irrespective of the MC4_MISC0[Valid] setting.
