      powerpc/pseries: Fix kexec regression caused by CPPR tracking · 36350e00
      Mark Nelson 提交于
      The code to track the CPPR values added by commit
      49bd3647 ("powerpc/pseries: Track previous
      CPPR values to correctly EOI interrupts") broke kexec on pseries because
      the kexec code in xics.c calls xics_set_cpu_priority() before the IPI has
      been EOI'ed. This wasn't a problem previously but it now triggers a BUG_ON
      in xics_set_cpu_priority() because os_cppr->index isn't 0.
      
      Fix this problem by setting the index on the CPPR stack to 0 before calling
      xics_set_cpu_priority() in xics_teardown_cpu().
      
      Also make it clear that we only want to set the priority when there's just
      one CPPR value in the stack, and enforce it by updating the value of
      os_cppr->stack[0] rather than os_cppr->stack[os_cppr->index].
      
      While we're at it change the BUG_ON to a WARN_ON.

      mm: purge fragmented percpu vmap blocks · 02b709df
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Improve handling of fragmented per-CPU vmaps.  We previously don't free
      up per-CPU maps until all its addresses have been used and freed.  So
      fragmented blocks could fill up vmalloc space even if they actually had
      no active vmap regions within them.
      
      Add some logic to allow all CPUs to have these blocks purged in the case
      of failure to allocate a new vm area, and also put some logic to trim
      such blocks of a current CPU if we hit them in the allocation path (so
      as to avoid a large build up of them).
      
      Christoph reported some vmap allocation failures when using the per CPU
      vmap APIs in XFS, which cannot be reproduced after this patch and the
      previous bug fix.

      mm: percpu-vmap fix RCU list walking · de560423
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      RCU list walking of the per-cpu vmap cache was broken.  It did not use
      RCU primitives, and also the union of free_list and rcu_head is
      obviously wrong (because free_list is indeed the list we are RCU
      walking).
      
      While we are there, remove a couple of unused fields from an earlier
      iteration.
      
      These APIs aren't actually used anywhere, because of problems with the
      XFS conversion.  Christoph has now verified that the problems are solved
      with these patches.  Also it is an exported interface, so I think it
      will be good to be merged now (and Christoph wants to get the XFS
      changes into their local tree).

      Fix 'flush_old_exec()/setup_new_exec()' split · 7ab02af4
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Commit 221af7f8 ("Split 'flush_old_exec' into two functions") split
      the function at the point of no return - ie right where there were no
      more error cases to check.  That made sense from a technical standpoint,
      but when we then also combined it with the actual personality setting
      going in between flush_old_exec() and setup_new_exec(), it needs to be a
      bit more careful.
      
      In particular, we need to make sure that we really flush the old
      personality bits in the 'flush' stage, rather than later in the 'setup'
      stage, since otherwise we might be flushing the _new_ personality state
      that we're just setting up.
      
      So this moves the flags and personality flushing (and 'flush_thread()',
      which is the arch-specific function that generally resets lazy FP state
      etc) of the old process into flush_old_exec(), so that it doesn't affect
      any state that execve() is setting up for the new process environment.
      
      This was reported by Michal Simek as breaking his Microblaze qemu
      environment.

      cfq-iosched: Do not idle on async queues · 1efe8fe1
      Vivek Goyal 提交于
      Few weeks back, Shaohua Li had posted similar patch. I am reposting it
      with more test results.
      
      This patch does two things.
      
      - Do not idle on async queues.
      
      - It also changes the write queue depth CFQ drives (cfq_may_dispatch()).
        Currently, we seem to driving queue depth of 1 always for WRITES. This is
        true even if there is only one write queue in the system and all the logic
        of infinite queue depth in case of single busy queue as well as slowly
        increasing queue depth based on last delayed sync request does not seem to
        be kicking in at all.
      
      This patch will allow deeper WRITE queue depths (subjected to the other
      WRITE queue depth contstraints like cfq_quantum and last delayed sync
      request).
      
      Shaohua Li had reported getting more out of his SSD. For me, I have got
      one Lun exported from an HP EVA and when pure buffered writes are on, I
      can get more out of the system. Following are test results of pure
      buffered writes (with end_fsync=1) with vanilla and patched kernel. These
      results are average of 3 sets of run with increasing number of threads.

      I also ran buffered writes along with some sequential reads and some
      buffered reads going on in the system on a SATA disk because the potential
      risk could be that we should not be driving queue depth higher in presence
      of sync IO going to keep the max clat low.
      
      With some random and sequential reads going on in the system on one SATA
      disk I did not see any significant increase in max clat. So it looks like
      other WRITE queue depth control logic is doing its job. Here are the
      results.

      GFS2: Don't withdraw on partial rindex entries · 55f0b4c5
      Benjamin Marzinski 提交于
      ince gfs2 writes the rindex file a block at a time, and releases the
      exclusive lock after each block, it is possible that another process
      will grab the lock in the middle of the write.  Since rindex entries are
      not an even divisor of blocks, that other process may see partial
      entries.  On grows, this is fine.  The process can simply ignore the the
      partial entires. Previously, the code withdrew when it saw partial
      entries. Now it simply ignores them.

      To prevent deadlock, we should take locks as following sequence:
      
      blkio_list_lock -> queue_lock ->  blkcg_lock.
      
      The following patch should fix this bug.

      drm/radeon/kms: Fix oops after radeon_cs_parser_init() failure. · 17aafcca
      Michel Dänzer 提交于
      If radeon_cs_parser_init() fails, radeon_cs_ioctl() calls
      radeon_cs_parser_fini() with the non-zero error value. The latter dereferenced
      parser->ib which hasn't been initialized yet -> boom. Add a test for parser->ib
      being non-NULL before dereferencing it.

      desc->affinity doesn't exit in that case. Let's use a macro for
      the UP variant of get_irq_server(), it's the easiest way, avoids
      evaluating arguments.

      We are happy enough that the KMS driver is stable enough for enough people
      for the kms enable/disable to leave staging. Distros can now contemplate
      turning this on.
