Adds all defines, ioctls and structs needed for the sliced VBI API VBI = Vertical Blank Interval. It is related with the way TV signals work. It sends a line, then, it has a retrace time to allow the tube to move electrons to the beginning of the next line. This was the main reason at the beginning of analog B&W TV. There is a lot of bandwidth lost on VBI. So, lots of TV systems use it to send other information such as Closed Captions and Teletext. Also, broadcasters uses this as a channel to exchange information from the content producer to their subsidiaries at each city. There's already a raw VBI interface on V4L2 api, used for Closed Captions and Teletext. The decoding is doing at userlevel space and it is mostly for analog TV signals, non encoded. Encoded signals (MPEG, for example), may need also to transmit other information (like, for example, display aspect, i.e. 4x3, widescreen...). Sliced VBI interface is a method to allow the video stream to transmit this kind of information.

Explain the mysteries of set_current_state(). Quoth Linus: The scheduler itself never needs the memory barrier at all. The barrier is needed only if the user itself ends up testing some other thing afterwards, ie if you have set_process_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE); if (still_need_to_sleep()) schedule(); then the "still_need_to_sleep()" thing may test flags and wakeup events, and then you _may_ want to (and often do) make sure that the write of TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE is serialized wrt the reads of any wakeup data (since the wakeup may have happened on another CPU). So the comment is somewhat wrong. We don't really _care_ whether the state propagates out to other CPU's since all of our actions are purely local, and there is nothing we do that is conditional on any other CPU: we're going to sleep unconditionally, and the scheduler only cares about _our_ state, not about somebody elses state.

NET/ROM is lacking a connection reset like TCP's RST flag which at times may result in a connecting having to slowly timing out instead of just being reset. An earlier attempt to reset the connection by sending a NR_CONNACK | NR_CHOKE_FLAG transport was inacceptable as it did result in crashes of BPQ systems. An alternative approach of introducing a new transport type 7 (NR_RESET) has be implemented several years ago in Paula Jayne Dowie G8PZT's Xrouter. Implement NR_RESET for Linux's NET/ROM but like any messing with the state engine consider this experimental for now and thus control it by a sysctl (net.netrom.reset) which for the time being defaults to off.

Kernel connector - new userspace <-> kernel space easy to use communication module which implements easy to use bidirectional message bus using netlink as it's backend. Connector was created to eliminate complex skb handling both in send and receive message bus direction. Connector driver adds possibility to connect various agents using as one of it's backends netlink based network. One must register callback and identifier. When driver receives special netlink message with appropriate identifier, appropriate callback will be called. From the userspace point of view it's quite straightforward: socket(); bind(); send(); recv(); But if kernelspace want to use full power of such connections, driver writer must create special sockets, must know about struct sk_buff handling... Connector allows any kernelspace agents to use netlink based networking for inter-process communication in a significantly easier way: int cn_add_callback(struct cb_id *id, char *name, void (*callback) (void *)); void cn_netlink_send(struct cn_msg *msg, u32 __groups, int gfp_mask); struct cb_id { __u32 idx; __u32 val; }; idx and val are unique identifiers which must be registered in connector.h for in-kernel usage. void (*callback) (void *) - is a callback function which will be called when message with above idx.val will be received by connector core. Using connector completely hides low-level transport layer from it's users. Connector uses new netlink ability to have many groups in one socket.

This patch implements a task state bit (TASK_NONINTERACTIVE), which can be used by blocking points to mark the task's wait as "non-interactive". This does not mean the task will be considered a CPU-hog - the wait will simply not have an effect on the waiting task's priority - positive or negative alike. Right now only pipe_wait() will make use of it, because it's a common source of not-so-interactive waits (kernel compilation jobs, etc.).

The cpusets-formalize-intermediate-gfp_kernel-containment patch has a deadlock problem. This patch was part of a set of four patches to make more extensive use of the cpuset 'mem_exclusive' attribute to manage kernel GFP_KERNEL memory allocations and to constrain the out-of-memory (oom) killer. A task that is changing cpusets in particular ways on a system when it is very short of free memory could double trip over the global cpuset_sem semaphore (get the lock and then deadlock trying to get it again). The second attempt to get cpuset_sem would be in the routine cpuset_zone_allowed(). This was discovered by code inspection. I can not reproduce the problem except with an artifically hacked kernel and a specialized stress test. In real life you cannot hit this unless you are manipulating cpusets, and are very unlikely to hit it unless you are rapidly modifying cpusets on a memory tight system. Even then it would be a rare occurence. If you did hit it, the task double tripping over cpuset_sem would deadlock in the kernel, and any other task also trying to manipulate cpusets would deadlock there too, on cpuset_sem. Your batch manager would be wedged solid (if it was cpuset savvy), but classic Unix shells and utilities would work well enough to reboot the system. The unusual condition that led to this bug is that unlike most semaphores, cpuset_sem _can_ be acquired while in the page allocation code, when __alloc_pages() calls cpuset_zone_allowed. So it easy to mistakenly perform the following sequence: 1) task makes system call to alter a cpuset 2) take cpuset_sem 3) try to allocate memory 4) memory allocator, via cpuset_zone_allowed, trys to take cpuset_sem 5) deadlock The reason that this is not a serious bug for most users is that almost all calls to allocate memory don't require taking cpuset_sem. Only some code paths off the beaten track require taking cpuset_sem -- which is good. Taking a global semaphore on the main code path for allocating memory would not scale well. This patch fixes this deadlock by wrapping the up() and down() calls on cpuset_sem in kernel/cpuset.c with code that tracks the nesting depth of the current task on that semaphore, and only does the real down() if the task doesn't hold the lock already, and only does the real up() if the nesting depth (number of unmatched downs) is exactly one. The previous required use of refresh_mems(), anytime that the cpuset_sem semaphore was acquired and the code executed while holding that semaphore might try to allocate memory, is no longer required. Two refresh_mems() calls were removed thanks to this. This is a good change, as failing to get all the necessary refresh_mems() calls placed was a primary source of bugs in this cpuset code. The only remaining call to refresh_mems() is made while doing a memory allocation, if certain task memory placement data needs to be updated from its cpuset, due to the cpuset having been changed behind the tasks back.

This patch (written by me and also containing many suggestions of Arjan van de Ven) does a major cleanup of the spinlock code. It does the following things: - consolidates and enhances the spinlock/rwlock debugging code - simplifies the asm/spinlock.h files - encapsulates the raw spinlock type and moves generic spinlock features (such as ->break_lock) into the generic code. - cleans up the spinlock code hierarchy to get rid of the spaghetti. Most notably there's now only a single variant of the debugging code, located in lib/spinlock_debug.c. (previously we had one SMP debugging variant per architecture, plus a separate generic one for UP builds) Also, i've enhanced the rwlock debugging facility, it will now track write-owners. There is new spinlock-owner/CPU-tracking on SMP builds too. All locks have lockup detection now, which will work for both soft and hard spin/rwlock lockups. The arch-level include files now only contain the minimally necessary subset of the spinlock code - all the rest that can be generalized now lives in the generic headers: include/asm-i386/spinlock_types.h | 16 include/asm-x86_64/spinlock_types.h | 16 I have also split up the various spinlock variants into separate files, making it easier to see which does what. The new layout is: SMP | UP ----------------------------|----------------------------------- asm/spinlock_types_smp.h | linux/spinlock_types_up.h linux/spinlock_types.h | linux/spinlock_types.h asm/spinlock_smp.h | linux/spinlock_up.h linux/spinlock_api_smp.h | linux/spinlock_api_up.h linux/spinlock.h | linux/spinlock.h /* * here's the role of the various spinlock/rwlock related include files: * * on SMP builds: * * asm/spinlock_types.h: contains the raw_spinlock_t/raw_rwlock_t and the * initializers * * linux/spinlock_types.h: * defines the generic type and initializers * * asm/spinlock.h: contains the __raw_spin_*()/etc. lowlevel * implementations, mostly inline assembly code * * (also included on UP-debug builds:) * * linux/spinlock_api_smp.h: * contains the prototypes for the _spin_*() APIs. * * linux/spinlock.h: builds the final spin_*() APIs. * * on UP builds: * * linux/spinlock_type_up.h: * contains the generic, simplified UP spinlock type. * (which is an empty structure on non-debug builds) * * linux/spinlock_types.h: * defines the generic type and initializers * * linux/spinlock_up.h: * contains the __raw_spin_*()/etc. version of UP * builds. (which are NOPs on non-debug, non-preempt * builds) * * (included on UP-non-debug builds:) * * linux/spinlock_api_up.h: * builds the _spin_*() APIs. * * linux/spinlock.h: builds the final spin_*() APIs. */ All SMP and UP architectures are converted by this patch. arm, i386, ia64, ppc, ppc64, s390/s390x, x64 was build-tested via crosscompilers. m32r, mips, sh, sparc, have not been tested yet, but should be mostly fine.

I did not try to build non-SMP kernels. That should be trivial to fix up later if necessary. I converted bit ops atomic_hash lock to raw_spinlock_t. Doing so avoids some ugly nesting of linux/*.h and asm/*.h files. Those particular locks are well tested and contained entirely inside arch specific code. I do NOT expect any new issues to arise with them. If someone does ever need to use debug/metrics with them, then they will need to unravel this hairball between spinlocks, atomic ops, and bit ops that exist only because parisc has exactly one atomic instruction: LDCW (load and clear word).

Most awkward part of this is delaying write requests until bitmap updates have been flushed. To achieve this, we have a sequence number (seq_flush) which is incremented each time the raid5 is unplugged. If the raid thread notices that this has changed, it flushes bitmap changes, and assigned the value of seq_flush to seq_write. When a write request arrives, it is given the number from seq_write, and that write request may not complete until seq_flush is larger than the saved seq number. We have a new queue for storing stripes which are waiting for a bitmap flush and an extra flag for stripes to record if the write was 'degraded' and so should not clear the a bit in the bitmap.

If a device is flagged 'WriteMostly' and the array has a bitmap, and the bitmap superblock indicates that write_behind is allowed, then write_behind is enabled for WriteMostly devices. Write requests will be acknowledges as complete to the caller (via b_end_io) when all non-WriteMostly devices have completed the write, but will not be cleared from the bitmap until all devices complete. This requires memory allocation to make a local copy of the data being written. If there is insufficient memory, then we fall-back on normal write semantics.
