Multiple attempts to dynamically reallocate pci resources have unfortunately lead to regressions. Though we continue to fix the regressions and fine tune the dynamic-reallocation behavior, we have not reached a acceptable state yet. This patch provides a interim solution. It disables dynamic reallocation by default, but adds the ability to enable it through pci=realloc kernel command line parameter.

Add an FS-Cache helper to bulk uncache pages on an inode. This will only work for the circumstance where the pages in the cache correspond 1:1 with the pages attached to an inode's page cache. This is required for CIFS and NFS: When disabling inode cookie, we were returning the cookie and setting cifsi->fscache to NULL but failed to invalidate any previously mapped pages. This resulted in "Bad page state" errors and manifested in other kind of errors when running fsstress. Fix it by uncaching mapped pages when we disable the inode cookie. This patch should fix the following oops and "Bad page state" errors seen during fsstress testing. ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at fs/cachefiles/namei.c:201! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Pid: 5, comm: kworker/u:0 Not tainted 2.6.38.7-30.fc15.x86_64 #1 Bochs Bochs RIP: 0010: cachefiles_walk_to_object+0x436/0x745 [cachefiles] RSP: 0018:ffff88002ce6dd00 EFLAGS: 00010282 RAX: ffff88002ef165f0 RBX: ffff88001811f500 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000100 RDI: 0000000000000282 RBP: ffff88002ce6dda0 R08: 0000000000000100 R09: ffffffff81b3a300 R10: 0000ffff00066c0a R11: 0000000000000003 R12: ffff88002ae54840 R13: ffff88002ae54840 R14: ffff880029c29c00 R15: ffff88001811f4b0 FS: 00007f394dd32720(0000) GS:ffff88002ef00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: 00007fffcb62ddf8 CR3: 000000001825f000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process kworker/u:0 (pid: 5, threadinfo ffff88002ce6c000, task ffff88002ce55cc0) Stack: 0000000000000246 ffff88002ce55cc0 ffff88002ce6dd58 ffff88001815dc00 ffff8800185246c0 ffff88001811f618 ffff880029c29d18 ffff88001811f380 ffff88002ce6dd50 ffffffff814757e4 ffff88002ce6dda0 ffffffff8106ac56 Call Trace: cachefiles_lookup_object+0x78/0xd4 [cachefiles] fscache_lookup_object+0x131/0x16d [fscache] fscache_object_work_func+0x1bc/0x669 [fscache] process_one_work+0x186/0x298 worker_thread+0xda/0x15d kthread+0x84/0x8c kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 RIP cachefiles_walk_to_object+0x436/0x745 [cachefiles] ---[ end trace 1d481c9af1804caa ]--- I tested the uncaching by the following means: (1) Create a big file on my NFS server (104857600 bytes).

Handle events 0x4010 and 0x4011 so that we do not pester users about them. These events report when the thinkpad is docked/undocked to a native hotplug dock (i.e. one that does not need ACPI handling, nor is represented in the ACPI device tree). Such docks are based on USB 2.0/3.0, and also work as port replicators. We really want a proper dock class to report these, or at least new input EV_SW events. Since it is not clear which one to use yet, keep reporting them as vendor-specific ThinkPad events. WARNING: As defined by the thinkpad-acpi sysfs ABI rules of engagement, the vendor-specific events will be REMOVED as soon as generic events are made available (duplicate events are a big problem), with an appropriate update to the thinkpad-acpi sysfs/event ABI versioning. Userspace is already prepared to provide easy backwards compatibility for such changes when convenient to the distro (see acpi-fakekey). * Event 0x4010: docking to hotplug dock/port replicator * Event 0x4011: undocking from hotplug dock/port replicator Typical usecase would be to trigger display reconfiguration.

Documentation/usb/error-codes.txt mentions that urb->status can be set to -EXDEV, if the isochronous transfer was not fully completed. However, in practice, EHCI, UHCI, and OHCI all only set -EXDEV in the individual frame status, never in the URB status. Those host controller actually always pass in a zero status to usb_hcd_giveback_urb, and rely on the core to set the appropriate status value. The xHCI driver ran into issues with the uvcvideo driver when it tried to set -EXDEV in urb->status, because the driver refused to submit URBs, and the userspace camera application's video froze.

Commit a26ac245(rcu: move TREE_RCU from softirq to kthread) introduced performance regression. In an AIM7 test, this commit degraded performance by about 40%. The commit runs rcu callbacks in a kthread instead of softirq. We observed high rate of context switch which is caused by this. Out test system has 64 CPUs and HZ is 1000, so we saw more than 64k context switch per second which is caused by RCU's per-CPU kthread. A trace showed that most of the time the RCU per-CPU kthread doesn't actually handle any callbacks, but instead just does a very small amount of work handling grace periods. This means that RCU's per-CPU kthreads are making the scheduler do quite a bit of work in order to allow a very small amount of RCU-related processing to be done. Alex Shi's analysis determined that this slowdown is due to lock contention within the scheduler. Unfortunately, as Peter Zijlstra points out, the scheduler's real-time semantics require global action, which means that this contention is inherent in real-time scheduling. (Yes, perhaps someone will come up with a workaround -- otherwise, -rt is not going to do well on large SMP systems -- but this patch will work around this issue in the meantime. And "the meantime" might well be forever.) This patch therefore re-introduces softirq processing to RCU, but only for core RCU work. RCU callbacks are still executed in kthread context, so that only a small amount of RCU work runs in softirq context in the common case. This should minimize ksoftirqd execution, allowing us to skip boosting of ksoftirqd for CONFIG_RCU_BOOST=y kernels.

由 Alan Stern 提交于
Some USB mass-storage devices have bugs that cause them not to handle the first READ(10) command they receive correctly. The Corsair Padlock v2 returns completely bogus data for its first read (possibly it returns the data in encrypted form even though the device is supposed to be unlocked). The Feiya SD/SDHC card reader fails to complete the first READ(10) command after it is plugged in or after a new card is inserted, returning a status code that indicates it thinks the command was invalid, which prevents the kernel from retrying the read. Since the first read of a new device or a new medium is for the partition sector, the kernel is unable to retrieve the device's partition table. Users have to manually issue an "hdparm -z" or "blockdev --rereadpt" command before they can access the device. This patch (as1470) works around the problem. It adds a new quirk flag, US_FL_INVALID_READ10, indicating that the first READ(10) should always be retried immediately, as should any failing READ(10) commands (provided the preceding READ(10) command succeeded, to avoid getting stuck in a loop). The patch also adds appropriate unusual_devs entries containing the new flag.

由 Youquan Song 提交于
There are no externally-visible changes with this. In the loop in the internal __domain_mapping() function, we simply detect if we are mapping: - size >= 2MiB, and - virtual address aligned to 2MiB, and - physical address aligned to 2MiB, and - on hardware that supports superpages. (and likewise for larger superpages). We automatically use a superpage for such mappings. We never have to worry about *breaking* superpages, since we trust that we will always *unmap* the same range that was mapped. So all we need to do is ensure that dma_pte_clear_range() will also cope with superpages. Adjust pfn_to_dma_pte() to take a superpage 'level' as an argument, so it can return a PTE at the appropriate level rather than always extending the page tables all the way down to level 1. Again, this is simplified by the fact that we should never encounter existing small pages when we're creating a mapping; any old mapping that used the same virtual range will have been entirely removed and its obsolete page tables freed. Provide an 'intel_iommu=sp_off' argument on the command line as a chicken bit. Not that it should ever be required. == The original commit seen in the iommu-2.6.git was Youquan's implementation (and completion) of my own half-baked code which I'd typed into an email. Followed by half a dozen subsequent 'fixes'. I've taken the unusual step of rewriting history and collapsing the original commits in order to keep the main history simpler, and make life easier for the people who are going to have to backport this to older kernels. And also so I can give it a more coherent commit comment which (hopefully) gives a better explanation of what's going on. The original sequence of commits leading to identical code was: Youquan Song (3): intel-iommu: super page support intel-iommu: Fix superpage alignment calculation error intel-iommu: Fix superpage level calculation error in dma_pfn_level_pte() David Woodhouse (4): intel-iommu: Precalculate superpage support for dmar_domain intel-iommu: Fix hardware_largepage_caps() intel-iommu: Fix inappropriate use of superpages in __domain_mapping() intel-iommu: Fix phys_pfn in __domain_mapping for sglist pages Signed-off-by: NYouquan Song <youquan.song@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>

mwait_idle() is a C1-only idle loop intended to be more efficient than HLT on SMP hardware that supports it. But mwait_idle() has been replaced by the more general mwait_idle_with_hints(), which handles both C1 and deeper C-states. ACPI uses only mwait_idle_with_hints(), and never uses mwait_idle(). Deprecate mwait_idle() and the "idle=mwait" cmdline param to simplify the x86 idle code. After this change, kernels configured with (!CONFIG_ACPI=n && !CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=n) when run on hardware that support MWAIT will simply use HLT. If MWAIT is desired on those systems, cpuidle and the cpuidle drivers above can be used. cc: x86@kernel.org cc: stable@kernel.org # .39.x Signed-off-by: NLen Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
