      param: use ops in struct kernel_param, rather than get and set fns directly · 9bbb9e5a
      由 Rusty Russell 提交于 
      This is more kernel-ish, saves some space, and also allows us to
expand the ops without breaking all the callers who are happy for the
new members to be NULL.

The few places which defined their own param types are changed to the
new scheme (more which crept in recently fixed in following patches).

Since we're touching them anyway, we change get() and set() to take a
const struct kernel_param (which they really are).  This causes some
harmless warnings until we fix them (in following patches).

To reduce churn, module_param_call creates the ops struct so the callers
don't have to change (and casts the functions to reduce warnings).
The modern version which takes an ops struct is called module_param_cb.

      NFS: flush signals before taking down callback thread · 1227a74e
      由 Jeff Layton 提交于 
      Now that the reference counting on the callback thread is working as
expected, it uncovers another problem.  Peter Staubach noticed while
testing that patch on an older kernel that he would occasionally see
this printk in rpc_register fire:

    "RPC: failed to contact portmap (errno -512).

The NFSv4 callback thread is signaled by nfs_callback_down(), but never
flushes that signal. All of the shutdown processing is done with that
signal pending. This makes it fail the call to unregister the port with
the portmapper.

In actuality, this rpc_register call isn't necessary at all since the
port isn't actually registered with the portmapper anymore. Regardless,
there doesn't seem to be any reason to leave the signal pending while
the thread is being shut down and flushing it should generally silence
that printk.

      NFS: fix reference counting for NFSv4 callback thread · 8e60029f
      由 Jeff Layton 提交于 
      The reference counting for the NFSv4 callback thread stays artificially
high. When this thread comes down, it doesn't properly tear down the
svc_serv, causing a memory leak. In my testing on an older kernel on
x86_64, memory would leak out of the 8k kmalloc slab. So, we're leaking
at least a page of memory every time the thread comes down.

svc_create() creates the svc_serv with a sv_nrthreads count of 1, and
then svc_create_thread() increments that count. Whenever the callback
thread is started it has a sv_nrthreads count of 2. When coming down, it
calls svc_exit_thread() which decrements that count and if it hits 0, it
tears everything down. That never happens here since the count is always
at 2 when the thread exits.

The problem is that nfs_callback_up() should be calling svc_destroy() on
the svc_serv on both success and failure. This is how lockd_up_proto()
handles the reference counting, and doing that here fixes the leak.

      Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by default · 83144186
      由 Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于 
      Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves.  This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.

It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.

The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie.  to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE.  It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear.  Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.
