      [ARM] Double check memmap is actually valid with a memmap has unexpected holes V2 · eb33575c
      由 Mel Gorman 提交于 
      pfn_valid() is meant to be able to tell if a given PFN has valid memmap
associated with it or not. In FLATMEM, it is expected that holes always
have valid memmap as long as there is valid PFNs either side of the hole.
In SPARSEMEM, it is assumed that a valid section has a memmap for the
entire section.

However, ARM and maybe other embedded architectures in the future free
memmap backing holes to save memory on the assumption the memmap is never
used. The page_zone linkages are then broken even though pfn_valid()
returns true. A walker of the full memmap must then do this additional
check to ensure the memmap they are looking at is sane by making sure the
zone and PFN linkages are still valid. This is expensive, but walkers of
the full memmap are extremely rare.

This was caught before for FLATMEM and hacked around but it hits again for
SPARSEMEM because the page_zone linkages can look ok where the PFN linkages
are totally screwed. This looks like a hatchet job but the reality is that
any clean solution would end up consumning all the memory saved by punching
these unexpected holes in the memmap. For example, we tried marking the
memmap within the section invalid but the section size exceeds the size of
the hole in most cases so pfn_valid() starts returning false where valid
memmap exists. Shrinking the size of the section would increase memory
consumption offsetting the gains.

This patch identifies when an architecture is punching unexpected holes
in the memmap that the memory model cannot automatically detect and sets
ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL. At the moment, this is restricted to EP93xx
which is the model sub-architecture this has been reported on but may expand
later. When set, walkers of the full memmap must call memmap_valid_within()
for each PFN and passing in what it expects the page and zone to be for
that PFN. If it finds the linkages to be broken, it assumes the memmap is
invalid for that PFN.

      libata: Media rotation rate and form factor heuristics · 4bca3286
      由 Martin K. Petersen 提交于 
      This patch provides new heuristics for parsing both the form factor and
media rotation rate ATA IDENFITY words.

The reported ATA version must be 7 or greater and the device must return
values defined as valid in the standard.  Only then are the
characteristics reported to SCSI via the VPD B1 page.

This seems like a reasonable compromise to me considering that we have
been shipping several kernel releases that key off the rotation rate bit
without any version checking whatsoever.  With no complaints so far.

Work is progressing to switch away from pdflush as the process backing

to control pdflush threads. The original author of the patch did not
have any specific use cases for adding the knobs, so we can easily
revert this before 2.6.30 to avoid having to maintain this API

      Does equivalent of up_write(&s->s_umount); deactivate_super(s);
However, it does not does not unlock it until it's all over.
As the result, it's safe to use to dispose of new superblock on ->get_sb()
failure exits - nobody will see the sucker until it's all over.
Equivalent using up_write/deactivate_super is safe for that purpose
if superblock is either	safe to use or has NULL ->s_root when we unlock.
Normally filesystems take the required precautions, but
	a) we do have bugs in that area in some of them.
	b) up_write/deactivate_super sequence is extremely common,
so the helper makes sense anyway.

       The xattr_root caching was broken from my previous patch set. It wouldn't

 This patch loads the xattr root dentry at xattr initialization and creates
 it on-demand. Since we're using the cached dentry, there's no point
 in keeping lookup_or_create_dir around, so that's removed.

      Revert driver core: move platform_data into platform_device · e67c8562
      由 Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于 
      This reverts commit 006f4571:

	This patch moves platform_data from struct device into
	struct platform_device, based on the two ideas:

	1. Now all platform_driver is registered by platform_driver_register,
	   which makes probe()/release()/... of platform_driver passed parameter
	   of platform_device *, so platform driver can get platform_data from
	   platform_device;

	2. Other kind of devices do not need to use platform_data, we can
	   decrease size of device if moving it to platform_device.

	Taking into consideration of thousands of files to be fixed and they
	can't be finished in one night(maybe it will take a long time), so we
	keep platform_data in device to allow two kind of cases coexist until
	all platform devices pass its platfrom data from
	platform_device->platform_data.

	All patches to do this kind of conversion are welcome.

As we don't really want to do it, it was a bad idea.

      netfilter: xt_cluster: fix use of cluster match with 32 nodes · 280f37af
      由 Pablo Neira Ayuso 提交于 
      This patch fixes a problem when you use 32 nodes in the cluster
match:

% iptables -I PREROUTING -t mangle -i eth0 -m cluster \
  --cluster-total-nodes  32  --cluster-local-node  32 \
  --cluster-hash-seed 0xdeadbeef -j MARK --set-mark 0xffff
iptables: Invalid argument. Run `dmesg' for more information.
% dmesg | tail -1
xt_cluster: this node mask cannot be higher than the total number of nodes

The problem is related to this checking:

if (info->node_mask >= (1 << info->total_nodes)) {
	printk(KERN_ERR "xt_cluster: this node mask cannot be "
			"higher than the total number of nodes\n");
	return false;
}

(1 << 32) is 1. Thus, the checking fails.

BTW, I said this before but I insist: I have only tested the cluster
match with 2 nodes getting ~45% extra performance in an active-active setup.
The maximum limit of 32 nodes is still completely arbitrary. I'd really
appreciate if people that have more nodes in their setups let me know.

      usbnet: CDC EEM support (v5) · 9f722c09
      由 Omar Laazimani 提交于 
      This introduces a CDC Ethernet Emulation Model (EEM) host side
driver to support USB EEM devices.

EEM is different from the Ethernet Control Model (ECM) currently
supported by the "CDC Ethernet" driver.  One key difference is
that it doesn't require of USB interface alternate settings to
manage interface state; some maldesigned hardware can't handle
that part of USB.  It also avoids a separate USB interface for
control and status updates.

      netfilter: revised locking for x_tables · 942e4a2b
      由 Stephen Hemminger 提交于 
      The x_tables are organized with a table structure and a per-cpu copies
of the counters and rules. On older kernels there was a reader/writer 
lock per table which was a performance bottleneck. In 2.6.30-rc, this
was converted to use RCU and the counters/rules which solved the performance
problems for do_table but made replacing rules much slower because of
the necessary RCU grace period.

This version uses a per-cpu set of spinlocks and counters to allow to
table processing to proceed without the cache thrashing of a global
reader lock and keeps the same performance for table updates.

      Input: add detailed multi-touch finger data report protocol · 5e5ee686
      由 Henrik Rydberg 提交于 
      In order to utilize the full power of the new multi-touch devices, a
way to report detailed finger data to user space is needed. This patch
adds a multi-touch (MT) protocol which allows drivers to report details
for an arbitrary number of fingers.

The driver sends a SYN_MT_REPORT event via the input_mt_sync() function
when a complete finger has been reported.

In order to stay compatible with existing applications, the data
reported in a finger packet must not be recognized as single-touch
events. In addition, all finger data must bypass input filtering,
since subsequent events of the same type refer to different fingers.

A set of ABS_MT events with the desired properties are defined. The
events are divided into categories, to allow for partial implementation.
The minimum set consists of ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR, ABS_MT_POSITION_X and
ABS_MT_POSITION_Y, which allows for multiple fingers to be tracked.
If the device supports it, the ABS_MT_WIDTH_MAJOR may be used to provide
the size of the approaching finger. Anisotropy and direction may be
specified with ABS_MT_TOUCH_MINOR, ABS_MT_WIDTH_MINOR and
ABS_MT_ORIENTATION. Devices with more granular information may specify
general shapes as blobs, i.e., as a sequence of rectangular shapes
grouped together by a ABS_MT_BLOB_ID. Finally, the ABS_MT_TOOL_TYPE
may be used to specify whether the touching tool is a finger or a pen.

      net: Avoid extra wakeups of threads blocked in wait_for_packet() · bf368e4e
      由 Eric Dumazet 提交于 
      In 2.6.25 we added UDP mem accounting.

This unfortunatly added a penalty when a frame is transmitted, since
we have at TX completion time to call sock_wfree() to perform necessary
memory accounting. This calls sock_def_write_space() and utimately
scheduler if any thread is waiting on the socket.
Thread(s) waiting for an incoming frame was scheduled, then had to sleep
again as event was meaningless.

(All threads waiting on a socket are using same sk_sleep anchor)

This adds lot of extra wakeups and increases latencies, as noted
by Christoph Lameter, and slows down softirq handler.

Reference : http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=124060437012283&w=2 

Fortunatly, Davide Libenzi recently added concept of keyed wakeups
into kernel, and particularly for sockets (see commit
37e5540b 
epoll keyed wakeups: make sockets use keyed wakeups)

Davide goal was to optimize epoll, but this new wakeup infrastructure
can help non epoll users as well, if they care to setup an appropriate
handler.

This patch introduces new DEFINE_WAIT_FUNC() helper and uses it
in wait_for_packet(), so that only relevant event can wakeup a thread
blocked in this function.

Trace of function calls from bnx2 TX completion bnx2_poll_work() is :
__kfree_skb()
 skb_release_head_state()
  sock_wfree()
   sock_def_write_space()
    __wake_up_sync_key()
