      netns: Remove net_alive · 17edde52
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      It turns out that net_alive is unnecessary, and the original problem
      that led to it being added was simply that the icmp code thought
      it was a network device and wound up being unable to handle packets
      while there were still packets in the network namespace.
      
      Now that icmp and tcp have been fixed to properly register themselves
      this problem is no longer present and we have a stronger guarantee
      that packets will not arrive in a network namespace then that provided
      by net_alive in netif_receive_skb.  So remove net_alive allowing
      packet reception run a little faster.
      
      Additionally document the strong reason why network namespace cleanup
      is safe so that if something happens again someone else will have
      a chance of figuring it out.

      block: reduce stack footprint of blk_recount_segments() · 1e428079
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      blk_recalc_rq_segments() requires a request structure passed in, which
      we don't have from blk_recount_segments(). So the latter allocates one on
      the stack, using > 400 bytes of stack for that. This can cause us to spill
      over one page of stack from ext4 at least:

      rcu: Teach RCU that idle task is not quiscent state at boot · a6826048
      Paul E. McKenney 提交于
      This patch fixes a bug located by Vegard Nossum with the aid of
      kmemcheck, updated based on review comments from Nick Piggin,
      Ingo Molnar, and Andrew Morton.  And cleans up the variable-name
      and function-name language.  ;-)
      
      The boot CPU runs in the context of its idle thread during boot-up.
      During this time, idle_cpu(0) will always return nonzero, which will
      fool Classic and Hierarchical RCU into deciding that a large chunk of
      the boot-up sequence is a big long quiescent state.  This in turn causes
      RCU to prematurely end grace periods during this time.
      
      This patch changes the rcutree.c and rcuclassic.c rcu_check_callbacks()
      function to ignore the idle task as a quiescent state until the
      system has started up the scheduler in rest_init(), introducing a
      new non-API function rcu_idle_now_means_idle() to inform RCU of this
      transition.  RCU maintains an internal rcu_idle_cpu_truthful variable
      to track this state, which is then used by rcu_check_callback() to
      determine if it should believe idle_cpu().
      
      Because this patch has the effect of disallowing RCU grace periods
      during long stretches of the boot-up sequence, this patch also introduces
      Josh Triplett's UP-only optimization that makes synchronize_rcu() be a
      no-op if num_online_cpus() returns 1.  This allows boot-time code that
      calls synchronize_rcu() to proceed normally.  Note, however, that RCU
      callbacks registered by call_rcu() will likely queue up until later in
      the boot sequence.  Although rcuclassic and rcutree can also use this
      same optimization after boot completes, rcupreempt must restrict its
      use of this optimization to the portion of the boot sequence before the
      scheduler starts up, given that an rcupreempt RCU read-side critical
      section may be preeempted.
      
      In addition, this patch takes Nick Piggin's suggestion to make the
      system_state global variable be __read_mostly.
      
      Changes since v4:
      
      o	Changes the name of the introduced function and variable to
      	be less emotional.  ;-)
      
      Changes since v3:
      
      o	WARN_ON(nr_context_switches() > 0) to verify that RCU
      	switches out of boot-time mode before the first context
      	switch, as suggested by Nick Piggin.
      
      Changes since v2:
      
      o	Created rcu_blocking_is_gp() internal-to-RCU API that
      	determines whether a call to synchronize_rcu() is itself
      	a grace period.
      
      o	The definition of rcu_blocking_is_gp() for rcuclassic and
      	rcutree checks to see if but a single CPU is online.
      
      o	The definition of rcu_blocking_is_gp() for rcupreempt
      	checks to see both if but a single CPU is online and if
      	the system is still in early boot.
      
      	This allows rcupreempt to again work correctly if running
      	on a single CPU after booting is complete.
      
      o	Added check to rcupreempt's synchronize_sched() for there
      	being but one online CPU.
      
      Tested all three variants both SMP and !SMP, booted fine, passed a short
      rcutorture test on both x86 and Power.

      ide: fix refcounting in device drivers · 8fed4368
      Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz 提交于
      During host driver module removal del_gendisk() results in a final
      put on drive->gendev and freeing the drive by drive_release_dev().
      
      Convert device drivers from using struct kref to use struct device
      so device driver's object holds reference on ->gendev and prevents
      drive from prematurely going away.
      
      Also fix ->remove methods to not erroneously drop reference on a
      host driver by using only put_device() instead of ide*_put().
