      netfilter: accounting rework: ct_extend + 64bit counters (v4) · 58401572
      由 Krzysztof Piotr Oledzki 提交于 
      Initially netfilter has had 64bit counters for conntrack-based accounting, but
it was changed in 2.6.14 to save memory. Unfortunately in-kernel 64bit counters are
still required, for example for "connbytes" extension. However, 64bit counters
waste a lot of memory and it was not possible to enable/disable it runtime.

This patch:
 - reimplements accounting with respect to the extension infrastructure,
 - makes one global version of seq_print_acct() instead of two seq_print_counters(),
 - makes it possible to enable it at boot time (for CONFIG_SYSCTL/CONFIG_SYSFS=n),
 - makes it possible to enable/disable it at runtime by sysctl or sysfs,
 - extends counters from 32bit to 64bit,
 - renames ip_conntrack_counter -> nf_conn_counter,
 - enables accounting code unconditionally (no longer depends on CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT),
 - set initial accounting enable state based on CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT
 - removes buggy IPCT_COUNTER_FILLING event handling.

If accounting is enabled newly created connections get additional acct extend.
Old connections are not changed as it is not possible to add a ct_extend area
to confirmed conntrack. Accounting is performed for all connections with
acct extend regardless of a current state of "net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_acct".

      x86 boot: only pick up additional EFI memmap if add_efi_memmap flag · 200001eb
      由 Paul Jackson 提交于 
      Applies on top of the previous patch:
  x86 boot: add code to add BIOS provided EFI memory entries to kernel

Instead of always adding EFI memory map entries (if present) to the
memory map after initially finding either E820 BIOS memory map entries
and/or kernel command line memmap entries, -instead- only add such
additional EFI memory map entries if the kernel boot option:

    add_efi_memmap

is specified.

Requiring this 'add_efi_memmap' option is backward compatible with
kernels that didn't load such additional EFI memory map entries in
the first place, and it doesn't override a configuration that tries
to replace all E820 or EFI BIOS memory map entries with ones given
entirely on the kernel command line.

      Suspend-related patches for 2.6.27 · d8f3de0d
      由 Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于 
      ACPI PM: Add possibility to change suspend sequence

There are some systems out there that don't work correctly with
our current suspend/hibernation code ordering.  Provide a workaround
for these systems allowing them to pass 'acpi_sleep=old_ordering' in
the kernel command line so that it will use the pre-ACPI 2.0 ("old")
suspend code ordering.

Unfortunately, this requires us to add a platform hook to the
resuming of devices for recovering the platform in case one of the
device drivers' .suspend() routines returns error code.  Namely,
ACPI 1.0 specifies that _PTS should be called before suspending
devices, but _WAK still should be called before resuming them in
order to undo the changes made by _PTS.  However, if there is an
error during suspending devices, they are automatically resumed
without returning control to the PM core, so the _WAK has to be
called from within device_resume() in that cases.

The patch also reorders and refactors the ACPI suspend/hibernation
code to avoid duplication as far as reasonably possible.

      PCI: boot parameter to avoid expansion ROM memory allocation · bb71ad88
      由 Gary Hade 提交于 
      Contention for scarce PCI memory resources has been growing
due to an increasing number of PCI slots in large multi-node
systems.  The kernel currently attempts by default to
allocate memory for all PCI expansion ROMs so there has
also been an increasing number of PCI memory allocation
failures seen on these systems.  This occurs because the
BIOS either (1) provides insufficient PCI memory resource
for all the expansion ROMs or (2) provides adequate PCI
memory resource for expansion ROMs but provides the
space in kernel unexpected BIOS assigned P2P non-prefetch
windows.

The resulting PCI memory allocation failures may be benign
when related to memory requests for expansion ROMs themselves
but in some cases they can occur when attempting to allocate
space for more critical BARs.  This can happen when a successful
expansion ROM allocation request consumes memory resource
that was intended for a non-ROM BAR.  We have seen this
happen during PCI hotplug of an adapter that contains a
P2P bridge where successful memory allocation for an
expansion ROM BAR on device behind the bridge consumed
memory that was intended for a non-ROM BAR on the P2P bridge.
In all cases the allocation failure messages can be very
confusing for users.

This patch provides a new 'pci=norom' kernel boot parameter
that can be used to disable the default PCI expansion ROM memory
resource allocation.  This provides a way to avoid the above
described issues on systems that do not contain PCI devices
for which drivers or user-level applications depend on the
default PCI expansion ROM memory resource allocation behavior.

      infrastructure to debug (dynamic) objects · 3ac7fe5a
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      We can see an ever repeating problem pattern with objects of any kind in the
kernel:

1) freeing of active objects
2) reinitialization of active objects

Both problems can be hard to debug because the crash happens at a point where
we have no chance to decode the root cause anymore.  One problem spot are
kernel timers, where the detection of the problem often happens in interrupt
context and usually causes the machine to panic.

While working on a timer related bug report I had to hack specialized code
into the timer subsystem to get a reasonable hint for the root cause.  This
debug hack was fine for temporary use, but far from a mergeable solution due
to the intrusiveness into the timer code.

The code further lacked the ability to detect and report the root cause
instantly and keep the system operational.

Keeping the system operational is important to get hold of the debug
information without special debugging aids like serial consoles and special
knowledge of the bug reporter.

The problems described above are not restricted to timers, but timers tend to
expose it usually in a full system crash.  Other objects are less explosive,
but the symptoms caused by such mistakes can be even harder to debug.

Instead of creating specialized debugging code for the timer subsystem a
generic infrastructure is created which allows developers to verify their code
and provides an easy to enable debug facility for users in case of trouble.

The debugobjects core code keeps track of operations on static and dynamic
objects by inserting them into a hashed list and sanity checking them on
object operations and provides additional checks whenever kernel memory is
freed.

The tracked object operations are:
- initializing an object
- adding an object to a subsystem list
- deleting an object from a subsystem list

Each operation is sanity checked before the operation is executed and the
subsystem specific code can provide a fixup function which allows to prevent
the damage of the operation.  When the sanity check triggers a warning message
and a stack trace is printed.

The list of operations can be extended if the need arises.  For now it's
limited to the requirements of the first user (timers).

The core code enqueues the objects into hash buckets.  The hash index is
generated from the address of the object to simplify the lookup for the check
on kfree/vfree.  Each bucket has it's own spinlock to avoid contention on a
global lock.

The debug code can be compiled in without being active.  The runtime overhead
is minimal and could be optimized by asm alternatives.  A kernel command line
option enables the debugging code.

      PCI: iommu: iotlb flushing · 5e0d2a6f
      由 mark gross 提交于 
      This patch is for batching up the flushing of the IOTLB for the DMAR
implementation found in the Intel VT-d hardware.  It works by building a list
of to be flushed IOTLB entries and a bitmap list of which DMAR engine they are
from.

After either a high water mark (250 accessible via debugfs) or 10ms the list
of iova's will be reclaimed and the DMAR engines associated are IOTLB-flushed.

This approach recovers 15 to 20% of the performance lost when using the IOMMU
for my netperf udp stream benchmark with small packets.  It can be disabled
with a kernel boot parameter "intel_iommu=strict".

Its use does weaken the IOMMU protections a bit.

      PCI: remove initial bios sort of PCI devices on x86 · 1ba6ab11
      由 Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于 
      We currently keep 2 lists of PCI devices in the system, one in the
driver core, and one all on its own.  This second list is sorted at boot
time, in "BIOS" order, to try to remain compatible with older kernels
(2.2 and earlier days).  There was also a "nosort" option to turn this
sorting off, to remain compatible with even older kernel versions, but
that just ends up being what we have been doing from 2.5 days...

Unfortunately, the second list of devices is not really ever used to 
determine the probing order of PCI devices or drivers[1].  That is done
using the driver core list instead.  This change happened back in the
early 2.5 days.

Relying on BIOS ording for the binding of drivers to specific device
names is problematic for many reasons, and userspace tools like udev
exist to properly name devices in a persistant manner if that is needed,
no reliance on the BIOS is needed.

Matt Domsch and others at Dell noticed this back in 2006, and added a
boot option to sort the PCI device lists (both of them) in a
breadth-first manner to help remain compatible with the 2.4 order, if
needed for any reason.  This option is not going away, as some systems
rely on them.

This patch removes the sorting of the internal PCI device list in "BIOS"
mode, as it's not needed at all anymore, and hasn't for many years.
I've also removed the PCI flags for this from some other arches that for
some reason defined them, but never used them.

This should not change the ordering of any drivers or device probing.

[1] The old-style pci_get_device and pci_find_device() still used this
sorting order, but there are very few drivers that use these functions,
as they are deprecated for use in this manner.  If for some reason, a
driver rely on the order and uses these functions, the breadth-first
boot option will resolve any problem.

User can choose a security module to enable at boot. If no

asking for registration will be loaded. An invalid security
module name will be treated as if no module has been chosen.

LSM modules must check now if they are allowed to register
by calling security_module_enable(ops) first. Modify SELinux
and SMACK to do so.

Do not let SMACK register smackfs if it was not chosen on
boot. Smackfs assumes that smack hooks are registered and
the initial task security setup (swapper->security) is done.

      cgroups: add cgroup support for enabling controllers at boot time · 8bab8dde
      由 Paul Menage 提交于 
      The effects of cgroup_disable=foo are:

- foo isn't auto-mounted if you mount all cgroups in a single hierarchy
- foo isn't visible as an individually mountable subsystem

As a result there will only ever be one call to foo->create(), at init time;
all processes will stay in this group, and the group will never be mounted on
a visible hierarchy.  Any additional effects (e.g.  not allocating metadata)
are up to the foo subsystem.

This doesn't handle early_init subsystems (their "disabled" bit isn't set be,
but it could easily be extended to do so if any of the early_init systems
wanted it - I think it would just involve some nastier parameter processing
since it would occur before the command-line argument parser had been run.

Hugh said:

  Ballpark figures, I'm trying to get this question out rather than
  processing the exact numbers: CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR adds 15% overhead
  to the affected paths, booting with cgroup_disable=memory cuts that back to
  1% overhead (due to slightly bigger struct page).

  I'm no expert on distros, they may have no interest whatever in
  CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR=y; and the rest of us can easily build with or
  without it, or apply the cgroup_disable=memory patches.

      ACPI PM: Restore the 2.6.24 suspend ordering · 7731ce63
      由 Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于 
      Some time ago it turned out that our suspend code ordering broke some
NVidia-based systems that hung if _PTS was executed with one of the PCI
devices, specifically a USB controller, in a low power state.

Then, it was noticed that the suspend code ordering was not compliant
with ACPI 1.0, although it was compliant with ACPI 2.0 (and later), and
it was argued that the code had to be changed for that reason (ref.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9528).

So we did, but evidently we did wrong, because it's now turning out that
some systems have been broken by this change. Refs:
	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10340
	https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=374217#c16

[ I said at that time that something like this might happend, but the
  majority of people involved thought that it was improbable due to the
  necessity to preserve the compliance of hardware with ACPI 1.0. ]

This actually is a quite serious regression from 2.6.24.

Moreover, the ACPI 1.0 ordering of suspend code introduced another issue
that I have only noticed recently.  Namely, if the suspend of one of
devices fails, the already suspended devices will be resumed without
executing _WAK before, which leads to problems on some systems (for
example, in such situations thermal management is broken on my HP
nx6325).  Consequently, it also breaks suspend debugging on the affected
systems.

Note also, that the requirement to execute _PTS before suspending
devices does not really make sense, because the device in question may
be put into a low power state at run time for a reason unrelated to a
system-wide suspend.

For the reasons outlined above, the change of the suspend ordering
should be reverted, which is done by the patch below.
