      s390/idle: fix sequence handling vs cpu hotplug · 0008204f
      由 Heiko Carstens 提交于 
      The s390 idle accounting code uses a sequence counter which gets used
when the per cpu idle statistics get updated and read.

One assumption on read access is that only when the sequence counter is
even and did not change while reading all values the result is valid.
On cpu hotplug however the per cpu data structure gets initialized via
a cpu hotplug notifier on CPU_ONLINE.
CPU_ONLINE however is too late, since the onlined cpu is already running
and might access the per cpu data. Worst case is that the data structure
gets initialized while an idle thread is updating its idle statistics.
This will result in an uneven sequence counter after an update.

As a result user space tools like top, which access /proc/stat in order
to get idle stats, will busy loop waiting for the sequence counter to
become even again, which will never happen until the queried cpu will
update its idle statistics again. And even then the sequence counter
will only have an even value for a couple of cpu cycles.

Fix this by moving the initialization of the per cpu idle statistics
to cpu_init(). I prefer that solution in favor of changing the
notifier to CPU_UP_PREPARE, which would be a different solution to
the problem.

      s390/smp: make absolute lowcore / cpu restart parameter accesses more robust · fbe76568
      由 Heiko Carstens 提交于 
      Setting the cpu restart parameters is done in three different fashions:
- directly setting the four parameters individually
- copying the four parameters with memcpy (using 4 * sizeof(long))
- copying the four parameters using a private structure

In addition code in entry*.S relies on a certain order of the restart
members of struct _lowcore.

Make all of this more robust to future changes by adding a
mem_absolute_assign(dest, val) define, which assigns val to dest
using absolute addressing mode. Also the load multiple instructions
in entry*.S have been split into separate load instruction so the
order of the struct _lowcore members doesn't matter anymore.

In addition move the prototypes of memcpy_real/absolute from uaccess.h
to processor.h. These memcpy* variants are not related to uaccess at all.
string.h doesn't seem to match as well, so lets use processor.h.

Also replace the eight byte array in struct _lowcore which represents a
misaliged u64 with a u64. The compiler will always create code that
handles the misaligned u64 correctly.

      dm thin: provide userspace access to pool metadata · cc8394d8
      由 Joe Thornber 提交于 
      This patch implements two new messages that can be sent to the thin
pool target allowing it to take a snapshot of the _metadata_.  This,
read-only snapshot can be accessed by userland, concurrently with the
live target.

Only one metadata snapshot can be held at a time.  The pool's status
line will give the block location for the current msnap.

Since version 0.1.5 of the userland thin provisioning tools, the
thin_dump program displays the msnap as follows:

    thin_dump -m <msnap root> <metadata dev>

Available here: https://github.com/jthornber/thin-provisioning-tools

Now that userland can access the metadata we can do various things
that have traditionally been kernel side tasks:

     i) Incremental backups.

     By using metadata snapshots we can work out what blocks have
     changed over time.  Combined with data snapshots we can ensure
     the data doesn't change while we back it up.

     A short proof of concept script can be found here:

     https://github.com/jthornber/thinp-test-suite/blob/master/incremental_backup_example.rb

     ii) Migration of thin devices from one pool to another.

     iii) Merging snapshots back into an external origin.

     iv) Asyncronous replication.

      dm mpath: allow ioctls to trigger pg init · 35991652
      由 Mikulas Patocka 提交于 
      After the failure of a group of paths, any alternative paths that
need initialising do not become available until further I/O is sent to
the device.  Until this has happened, ioctls return -EAGAIN.

With this patch, new paths are made available in response to an ioctl
too.  The processing of the ioctl gets delayed until this has happened.

Instead of returning an error, we submit a work item to kmultipathd
(that will potentially activate the new path) and retry in ten
milliseconds.

Note that the patch doesn't retry an ioctl if the ioctl itself fails due
to a path failure.  Such retries should be handled intelligently by the
code that generated the ioctl in the first place, noting that some SCSI
commands should not be retried because they are not idempotent (XOR write
commands).  For commands that could be retried, there is a danger that
if the device rejected the SCSI command, the path could be errorneously
marked as failed, and the request would be retried on another path which
might fail too.  It can be determined if the failure happens on the
device or on the SCSI controller, but there is no guarantee that all
SCSI drivers set these flags correctly.

      dm mpath: delay retry of bypassed pg · f220fd4e
      由 Mike Christie 提交于 
      If I/O needs retrying and only bypassed priority groups are available,
set the pg_init_delay_retry flag to wait before retrying.

If, for example, the reason for the bypass is that the controller is
getting reset or there is a firmware upgrade happening, retrying right
away would cause a flood of log messages and retries for what could be a
few seconds or even several minutes.

    a) Not pre-COW'ing routing metrics for SYN/ACKs
    b) Mirroring the device queue mapping of the SYN for the SYN/ACK

    socket, so we don't overrun the page vector accidently.  From Jason
    Wang.

 4) When netlabel is disabled, we abort all IP option processing when we
    see a CIPSO option.  This isn't the right thing to do, we should
    simply skip over it and continue processing the remaining options
    (if any).  Fix from Paul Moore.

 5) SRIOV fixes for the mellanox driver from Jack orgenstein and Marcel

 6) 8139cp enables the receiver before the ring address is properly
    programmed, which potentially lets the device crap over random
    memory.  Fix from Jason Wang.

      tty: Revert the tty locking series, it needs more work · f309532b
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      This reverts the tty layer change to use per-tty locking, because it's
not correct yet, and fixing it will require some more deep surgery.

The main revert is d29f3ef3 ("tty_lock: Localise the lock"), but
there are several smaller commits that built upon it, they also get
reverted here. The list of reverted commits is:

  fde86d31 - tty: add lockdep annotations
  8f6576ad - tty: fix ldisc lock inversion trace
  d3ca8b64 - pty: Fix lock inversion
  b1d679af - tty: drop the pty lock during hangup
  abcefe5f - tty/amiserial: Add missing argument for tty_unlock()
  fd11b42e - cris: fix missing tty arg in wait_event_interruptible_tty call
  d29f3ef3 - tty_lock: Localise the lock

The revert had a trivial conflict in the 68360serial.c staging driver
that got removed in the meantime.
