If invalidate_inode_pages2() fails, then it should in principle just be because the current process was signalled. In that case, we just want to ensure that the inode's page cache remains marked as invalid. Also add a helper to allow the O_DIRECT code to simply mark the page cache as invalid once it is finished writing, instead of calling invalidate_inode_pages2() itself.

Separate out the concept of "queue congestion" from "backing-dev congestion". Congestion is a backing-dev concept, not a queue concept. The blk_* congestion functions are retained, as wrappers around the core backing-dev congestion functions. This proper layering is needed so that NFS can cleanly use the congestion functions, and so that CONFIG_BLOCK=n actually links.

Problem: New Dell PowerEdge servers have 2 embedded ethernet ports, which are labeled NIC1 and NIC2 on the chassis, in the BIOS setup screens, and in the printed documentation. Assuming no other add-in ethernet ports in the system, Linux 2.4 kernels name these eth0 and eth1 respectively. Many people have come to expect this naming. Linux 2.6 kernels name these eth1 and eth0 respectively (backwards from expectations). I also have reports that various Sun and HP servers have similar behavior. Root cause: Linux 2.4 kernels walk the pci_devices list, which happens to be sorted in breadth-first order (or pcbios_find_device order on i386, which most often is breadth-first also). 2.6 kernels have both the pci_devices list and the pci_bus_type.klist_devices list, the latter is what is walked at driver load time to match the pci_id tables; this klist happens to be in depth-first order. On systems where, for physical routing reasons, NIC1 appears on a lower bus number than NIC2, but NIC2's bridge is discovered first in the depth-first ordering, NIC2 will be discovered before NIC1. If the list were sorted breadth-first, NIC1 would be discovered before NIC2. A PowerEdge 1955 system has the following topology which easily exhibits the difference between depth-first and breadth-first device lists. -[0000:00]-+-00.0 Intel Corporation 5000P Chipset Memory Controller Hub +-02.0-[0000:03-08]--+-00.0-[0000:04-07]--+-00.0-[0000:05-06]----00.0-[0000:06]----00.0 Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708S Gigabit Ethernet (labeled NIC2, 2.4 kernel name eth1, 2.6 kernel name eth0) +-1c.0-[0000:01-02]----00.0-[0000:02]----00.0 Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708S Gigabit Ethernet (labeled NIC1, 2.4 kernel name eth0, 2.6 kernel name eth1) Other factors, such as device driver load order and the presence of PCI slots at various points in the bus hierarchy further complicate this problem; I'm not trying to solve those here, just restore the device order, and thus basic behavior, that 2.4 kernels had. Solution: The solution can come in multiple steps. Suggested fix #1: kernel Patch below optionally sorts the two device lists into breadth-first ordering to maintain compatibility with 2.4 kernels. It adds two new command line options: pci=bfsort pci=nobfsort to force the sort order, or not, as you wish. It also adds DMI checks for the specific Dell systems which exhibit "backwards" ordering, to make them "right". Suggested fix #2: udev rules from userland Many people also have the expectation that embedded NICs are always discovered before add-in NICs (which this patch does not try to do). Using the PCI IRQ Routing Table provided by system BIOS, it's easy to determine which PCI devices are embedded, or if add-in, which PCI slot they're in. I'm working on a tool that would allow udev to name ethernet devices in ascending embedded, slot 1 .. slot N order, subsort by PCI bus/dev/fn breadth-first. It'll be possible to use it independent of udev as well for those distributions that don't use udev in their installers. Suggested fix #3: system board routing rules One can constrain the system board layout to put NIC1 ahead of NIC2 regardless of breadth-first or depth-first discovery order. This adds a significant level of complexity to board routing, and may not be possible in all instances (witness the above systems from several major manufacturers). I don't want to encourage this particular train of thought too far, at the expense of not doing #1 or #2 above. Feedback appreciated. Patch tested on a Dell PowerEdge 1955 blade with 2.6.18. You'll also note I took some liberty and temporarily break the klist abstraction to simplify and speed up the sort algorithm. I think that's both safe and appropriate in this instance.

handle_pte_fault uses pte_present, pte_none and pte_file to find out the type of a pte. That is done without holding the page table lock. This clashes with the way how ptep_clear_flush removes active page table entries from the system. First the ipte instruction is used to invalidate the pte and remove all plt entries for the page. The ipte sets the hardware invalid bit without changing any other bit. After the ipte finished the pte is cleared. A concurrent fault can observe the the previously valid pte with the invalid bit set. With the current encoding of the different pte types an invalidated read-only pte can be misinterpreted as a swap-pte. Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

Linux maps PAL instructions with an ITR, but uses a DTC for PAL data. Section 11.10.2.1.3, "Making PAL Procedures Calls in Physical or Virtual Mode," of the SDM (rev 2.2), says we must therefore make all PAL calls with PSR.ic = 1 so that Linux can handle any TLB faults. PAL_CALL_IC_OFF is currently unused, and as long as we use the ITR + DTC strategy, we can't use it. So remove it. I also removed the code in ia64_pal_call_static() that conditionally cleared PSR.ic.

When IO error happens on metadata buffer, buffer is freed from memory and later fsync() is called, filesystems like ext2 fail to report EIO. We solve the problem by introducing a pointer to associated address space into the buffer_head. When a buffer is removed from a list of metadata buffers associated with an address space, IO error is transferred from the buffer to the address space, so that fsync can later report it.

It is possible for the ->fopen callback from lockd into nfsd to find that an answer cannot be given straight away (an upcall is needed) and so the request has to be 'dropped', to be retried later. That error status is not currently propagated back. So: Change nlm_fopen to return nlm error codes (rather than a private protocol) and define a new nlm_drop_reply code. Cause nlm_drop_reply to cause the rpc request to get rpc_drop_reply when this error comes back. Cause svc_process to drop a request which returns a status of rpc_drop_reply.

Use inc/dec_preempt_count() rather than preempt_enable/disable() and manually add in the compiler barriers that were provided by the latter. This makes FRV consistent with other archs. Furthermore, the compiler barrier effects are now there unconditionally - at least as far as preemption is concerned - because we don't want the compiler moving memory accesses out of the section of code in which the mapping is in force - in effect the kmap_atomic() must imply a LOCK-class barrier and the kunmap_atomic() must imply an UNLOCK-class barrier to the compiler.

Unify the following functions: acpi_ec_poll_read() acpi_ec_poll_write() acpi_ec_poll_query() acpi_ec_intr_read() acpi_ec_intr_write() acpi_ec_intr_query() into: acpi_ec_poll_transaction() acpi_ec_intr_transaction() These new functions take as arguments an ACPI EC command, a few bytes to write to the EC data register and a buffer for a few bytes to read from the EC data register. The old _read(), _write(), _query() are just special cases of these functions. Then unified the code in acpi_ec_poll_transaction() and acpi_ec_intr_transaction() a little more. Both functions are now just wrappers around the new acpi_ec_transaction_unlocked() function. The latter contains the EC access logic, the two original function now just do their special way of locking and call the the new function for the actual work. This saves a lot of very similar code. The primary reason for doing this, however, is that my driver for MSI 270 laptops needs to issue some non-standard EC commands in a safe way. Due to this I added a new exported function similar to ec_write()/ec_write() which is called ec_transaction() and is essentially just a wrapper around acpi_ec_{poll,intr}_transaction().

Intel processors starting with the Core Duo support support processor native C-state using the MWAIT instruction. Refer: Intel Architecture Software Developer's Manual http://www.intel.com/design/Pentium4/manuals/253668.htm Platform firmware exports the support for Native C-state to OS using ACPI _PDC and _CST methods. Refer: Intel Processor Vendor-Specific ACPI: Interface Specification http://www.intel.com/technology/iapc/acpi/downloads/302223.htm With Processor Native C-state, we use 'MWAIT' instruction on the processor to enter different C-states (C1, C2, C3). We won't use the special IO ports to enter C-state and no SMM mode etc required to enter C-state. Overall this will mean better C-state support. One major advantage of using MWAIT for all C-states is, with this and "treat interrupt as break event" feature of MWAIT, we can now get accurate timing for the time spent in C1, C2, .. states.

由 Venkat Yekkirala 提交于
Currently when an IPSec policy rule doesn't specify a security context, it is assumed to be "unlabeled" by SELinux, and so the IPSec policy rule fails to match to a flow that it would otherwise match to, unless one has explicitly added an SELinux policy rule allowing the flow to "polmatch" to the "unlabeled" IPSec policy rules. In the absence of such an explicitly added SELinux policy rule, the IPSec policy rule fails to match and so the packet(s) flow in clear text without the otherwise applicable xfrm(s) applied. The above SELinux behavior violates the SELinux security notion of "deny by default" which should actually translate to "encrypt by default" in the above case. This was first reported by Evgeniy Polyakov and the way James Morris was seeing the problem was when connecting via IPsec to a confined service on an SELinux box (vsftpd), which did not have the appropriate SELinux policy permissions to send packets via IPsec. With this patch applied, SELinux "polmatching" of flows Vs. IPSec policy rules will only come into play when there's a explicit context specified for the IPSec policy rule (which also means there's corresponding SELinux policy allowing appropriate domains/flows to polmatch to this context). Secondly, when a security module is loaded (in this case, SELinux), the security_xfrm_policy_lookup() hook can return errors other than access denied, such as -EINVAL. We were not handling that correctly, and in fact inverting the return logic and propagating a false "ok" back up to xfrm_lookup(), which then allowed packets to pass as if they were not associated with an xfrm policy. The solution for this is to first ensure that errno values are correctly propagated all the way back up through the various call chains from security_xfrm_policy_lookup(), and handled correctly. Then, flow_cache_lookup() is modified, so that if the policy resolver fails (typically a permission denied via the security module), the flow cache entry is killed rather than having a null policy assigned (which indicates that the packet can pass freely). This also forces any future lookups for the same flow to consult the security module (e.g. SELinux) for current security policy (rather than, say, caching the error on the flow cache entry). This patch: Fix the selinux side of things. This makes sure SELinux polmatching of flow contexts to IPSec policy rules comes into play only when an explicit context is associated with the IPSec policy rule. Also, this no longer defaults the context of a socket policy to the context of the socket since the "no explicit context" case is now handled properly.
