      [PATCH] vfs: add lock owner argument to flush operation · 75e1fcc0
      Miklos Szeredi 提交于
      Pass the POSIX lock owner ID to the flush operation.
      
      This is useful for filesystems which don't want to store any locking state
      in inode->i_flock but want to handle locking/unlocking POSIX locks
      internally.  FUSE is one such filesystem but I think it possible that some
      network filesystems would need this also.
      
      Also add a flag to indicate that a POSIX locking request was generated by
      close(), so filesystems using the above feature won't send an extra locking
      request in this case.

      [PATCH] VFS: Permit filesystem to override root dentry on mount · 454e2398
      David Howells 提交于
      Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that
      permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint.
      
      The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry
      pointers.  For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt()
      which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the
      superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour).
      
      The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the
      superblock pointer.
      
      This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount
      points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing.  In
      such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root
      and mnt_sb would be set directly.
      
      The patch also makes the following changes:
      
       (*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount
           pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change
           very little.
      
       (*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should
           normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will
           always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb().
      
       (*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the
           dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon().
      
           This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that
           aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The
           currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root,
           and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in
           dentries being left unculled.
      
           However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be
           implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is
           simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be
           inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries
           with child trees.
      
           [*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree.
      
       (*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of
           changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

      [IA64] support for cpu0 removal · ff741906
      Ashok Raj 提交于
      here is the BSP removal support for IA64. Its pretty much the same thing that
      was released a while back, but has your feedback incorporated.
      
      - Removed CONFIG_BSP_REMOVE_WORKAROUND and associated cmdline param
      - Fixed compile issue with sn2/zx1 due to a undefined fix_b0_for_bsp
      - some formatting nits (whitespace etc)
      
      This has been tested on tiger and long back by alex on hp systems as well.

      [IA64] fix perfmon context load · 6bf11e8c
      stephane.eranian@hp.com 提交于
      The PFM_LOAD_CONTEXT may fail silently and cause a session
      to remain reserved even though it should not. This can happen
      when the commands succeeds in reserving the session but fails
      when it actually tries to attach to the load_pid. In that case,
      the command has failed but will return 0. More importantly,
      the session will remain reserved. This patch fixes the problem.

      [IA64] alternate perfmon handler · a1ecf7f6

      Patch from Charles Spirakis
      
      Some linux customers want to optimize their applications on the latest
      hardware but are not yet willing to upgrade to the latest kernel. This
      patch provides a way to plug in an alternate, basic, and GPL'ed PMU
      subsystem to help with their monitoring needs or for specialty work. It
      can also be used in case of serious unexpected bugs in perfmon. Mutual
      exclusion between the two subsystems is guaranteed, hence no conflict
      can arise from both subsystem being present.

      [IA64] another perfmon fix (take2) · a5a70b75

      - pfm_context_load(): change return value from EINVAL to EBUSY
        when context is already loaded.
      
      - pfm_check_task_state(): pass test if context state is MASKED.
        It is safe to give access on PFM_CTX_MASKED because the PMU
        state (PMD) is stable and saved in software state.
        This helps multiplexing programs such as the example given
        in libpfm-3.1.

      [IA64] perfmon & PAL_HALT again · 8df5a500
      Stephane Eranian 提交于
      The pmu_active test is based on the values of PSR.up. THIS IS THE PROBLEM as
      it does not take into account the lazy restore logic which is as follow (simplified):
      
      context switch out:
      	save PMDs
      	clear psr.up
      	release ownership
      
      context switch in:
      	if (ctx->last_cpu == smp_processor_id() && ctx->cpu_activation == cpu_activation) {
      		set psr.up
      		return
      	}
      	restore PMD
      	restore PMC
      	ctx->last_cpu   = smp_processor_id();
      	ctx->activation = ++cpu_activation;
      	set psr.up
      
      The key here is that on context switch out, we clear psr.up and on context switch in
      we check if nobody else used the PMU on that processor since last time we came. In
      that case, we assume the PMD/PMC are ours and we simply reactivate.
      
      The Caliper problem is that between the moment we context switch out and the moment we
      come back, nobody effectively used the PMU BUT the processor went idle. Normally this
      would have no incidence but PAL_HALT does alter the PMU registers.  In default_idle(),
      the test on psr.up is not strong enough to cover this case and we go into PAL which
      trashed the PMU resgisters. When we come back we falsely assume that this is our state
      yet it is corrupted. Very nasty indeed.
      
      To avoid the problem it is necessary to forbid going to PAL_HALT as soon as perfmon
      installs some valid state in the PMU registers. This happens with an application
      attaches a context to a thread or CPU. It is not enough to check the psr/dcr bits.
      Hence I propose the attached patch. It adds a callback in process.c to modify the
      condition to enter PAL on idle. Basically, now it is conditional to pal_halt=1 AND
      perfmon saying it is okay.

        be triggered. There is a path where pfm_handle_work()
        can be called with interrupts enabled, i.e., when
        TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set. The fix correct the masking
        and unmasking of interrupts in pfm_handle_work() such
        that we restore the interrupt mask as it was upon entry.
