2012-05-23Merge branch 'sched-core-for-linus' of ↵Linus Torvalds
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull scheduler changes from Ingo Molnar: "The biggest change is the cleanup/simplification of the load-balancer: instead of the current practice of architectures twiddling scheduler internal data structures and providing the scheduler domains in colorfully inconsistent ways, we now have generic scheduler code in kernel/sched/core.c:sched_init_numa() that looks at the architecture's node_distance() parameters and (while not fully trusting it) deducts a NUMA topology from it.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging Pull staging tree changes from Greg Kroah-Hartman: "Here is the big staging tree pull request for the 3.5-rc1 merge window. Loads of changes here, and we just narrowly added more lines than we added: 622 files changed, 28356 insertions(+), 26059 deletions(-) But, good news is that there is a number of subsystems that moved out of the staging tree, to their respective "real" portions of the kernel. Code that moved out was: - iio core code - mei driver - vme core and bridge drivers There was one broken network driver that moved into staging as a step before it is removed from the tree (pc300), and there was a few new drivers added to the tree: - new iio drivers - gdm72xx wimax USB driver - ipack subsystem and 2 drivers All of the movements around have acks from the various subsystem maintainers, and all of this has been in the linux-next tree for a while.

Posted to LKML: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/322. 3) A couple of commits that improve the efficiency of the interaction between preemptible RCU and the scheduler, these two being all that survived an abortive attempt to allow preemptible RCU's __rcu_read_lock() to be inlined. The full set was posted to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/14/143, and the first and third patches of that set remain. 4) Lai Jiangshan's algorithmic implementation of SRCU, which includes call_srcu() and srcu_barrier().

isci update for 3.5 1/ Rework remote-node-context (RNC) handling for proper management of the silicon state machine in error handling and hot-plug conditions. Further details below, suffice to say if the RNC is mismanaged the silicon state machines may lock up. 2/ Refactor the initialization code to be reused for suspend/resume support 3/ Miscellaneous bug fixes to address discovery issues and hardware compatibility. RNC rework details from Jeff Skirvin: In the controller, devices as they appear on a SAS domain (or direct-attached SATA devices) are represented by memory structures known as "Remote Node Contexts" (RNCs). These structures are transferred from main memory to the controller using a set of register commands; these commands include setting up the context ("posting"), removing the context ("invalidating"), and commands to control the scheduling of commands and connections to that remote device ("suspensions" and "resumptions"). There is a similar path to control RNC scheduling from the protocol engine, which interprets the results of command and data transmission and reception. In general, the controller chooses among non-suspended RNCs to find one that has work requiring scheduling the transmission of command and data frames to a target. Likewise, when a target tries to return data back to the initiator, the state of the RNC is used by the controller to determine how to treat the incoming request. As an example, if the RNC is in the state "TX/RX Suspended", incoming SSP connection requests from the target will be rejected by the controller hardware. When an RNC is "TX Suspended", it will not be selected by the controller hardware to start outgoing command or data operations (with certain priority-based exceptions). As mentioned above, there are two sources for management of the RNC states: commands from driver software, and the result of transmission and reception conditions of commands and data signaled by the controller hardware. As an example of the latter, if an outgoing SSP command ends with a OPEN_REJECT(BAD_DESTINATION) status, the RNC state will transition to the "TX Suspended" state, and this is signaled by the controller hardware in the status to the completion of the pending command as well as signaled in a controller hardware event. Examples of the former are included in the patch changelogs. Driver software is required to suspend the RNC in a "TX/RX Suspended" condition before any outstanding commands can be terminated. Failure to guarantee this can lead to a complete hardware hang condition. Earlier versions of the driver software did not guarantee that an RNC was correctly managed before I/O termination, and so operated in an unsafe way. Further, the driver performed unnecessary contortions to preserve the remote device command state and so was more complicated than it needed to be. A simplifying driver assumption is that once an I/O has entered the error handler path without having completed in the target, the requirement on the driver is that all use of the sas_task must end. Beyond that, recovery of operation is dependent on libsas and other components to reset, rediscover and reconfigure the device before normal operation can restart. In the driver, this simplifying assumption meant that the RNC management could be reduced to entry into the suspended state, terminating the targeted I/O request, and resuming the RNC as needed for device-specific management such as an SSP Abort Task or LUN Reset Management request.

2012-05-17sched: Remove stale power aware scheduling remnants and dysfunctional knobsPeter Zijlstra
It's been broken forever (i.e. it's not scheduling in a power aware fashion), as reported by Suresh and others sending patches, and nobody cares enough to fix it properly ... so remove it to make space free for something better. There's various problems with the code as it stands today, first and foremost the user interface which is bound to topology levels and has multiple values per level. This results in a state explosion which the administrator or distro needs to master and almost nobody does. Furthermore large configuration state spaces aren't good, it means the thing doesn't just work right because it's either under so many impossibe to meet constraints, or even if there's an achievable state workloads have to be aware of it precisely and can never meet it for dynamic workloads. So pushing this kind of decision to user-space was a bad idea even with a single knob - it's exponentially worse with knobs on every node of the topology. There is a proposal to replace the user interface with a single 3 state knob: sched_balance_policy := { performance, power, auto } where 'auto' would be the preferred default which looks at things like Battery/AC mode and possible cpufreq state or whatever the hw exposes to show us power use expectations - but there's been no progress on it in the past many months. Aside from that, the actual implementation of the various knobs is known to be broken. There have been sporadic attempts at fixing things but these always stop short of reaching a mergable state. Therefore this wholesale removal with the hopes of spurring people who care to come forward once again and work on a coherent replacement.

Instead of using /dev/mem directly and forcing userspace to know (or extract) where the platform has defined persistent memory, how many slots it has, the sizes, etc, use the common pstore infrastructure to handle Oops gathering and extraction. This presents a much easier to use filesystem-based view to the memory region. This also means that any other tools that are written to understand pstore will automatically be able to process ramoops too.

2012-05-15Smack: allow for significantly longer Smack labels v4Casey Schaufler
V4 updated to current linux-security#next Targeted for git://gitorious.org/smack-next/kernel.git Modern application runtime environments like to use naming schemes that are structured and generated without human intervention. Even though the Smack limit of 23 characters for a label name is perfectly rational for human use there have been complaints that the limit is a problem in environments where names are composed from a set or sources, including vendor, author, distribution channel and application name. Names like softwarehouse-pgwodehouse-coolappstore-mellowmuskrats are becoming harder to avoid. This patch introduces long label support in Smack. Labels are now limited to 255 characters instead of the old 23. The primary reason for limiting the labels to 23 characters was so they could be directly contained in CIPSO category sets. This is still done were possible, but for labels that are too large a mapping is required. This is perfectly safe for communication that stays "on the box" and doesn't require much coordination between boxes beyond what would have been required to keep label names consistent. The bulk of this patch is in smackfs, adding and updating administrative interfaces. Because existing APIs can't be changed new ones that do much the same things as old ones have been introduced. The Smack specific CIPSO data representation has been removed and replaced with the data format used by netlabel. The CIPSO header is now computed when a label is imported rather than on use. This results in improved IP performance. The smack label is now allocated separately from the containing structure, allowing for larger strings. Four new /smack interfaces have been introduced as four of the old interfaces strictly required labels be specified in fixed length arrays. The access interface is supplemented with the check interface: access "Subject Object rwxat" access2 "Subject Object rwaxt" The load interface is supplemented with the rules interface: load "Subject Object rwxat" load2 "Subject Object rwaxt" The load-self interface is supplemented with the self-rules interface: load-self "Subject Object rwxat" load-self2 "Subject Object rwaxt" The cipso interface is supplemented with the wire interface: cipso "Subject lvl cnt c1 c2 ..." cipso2 "Subject lvl cnt c1 c2 ..." The old interfaces are maintained for compatibility. Signed-off-by: Casey Schaufler <casey@schaufler-ca.com>

2012-05-14regulator: tps62360: support force PWM mode via regulator modeLaxman Dewangan
Change the mechanism of enabling the force PWM mode through regulator set mode. This can be dynamically configured now. In the REGULATOR_MODE_FAST the force PWM is enabled and in REGULATOR_MODE_NORMAL the force PWM is disabled.

2012-05-14batman-adv: README cleanupsSven Eckelmann
- Add routing_algo - Remove date from README: The date has to be updated when a patch touches the README. Therefore, nearly every feature will modify this date. It can happens quite often that not only one feature is currently in development or waiting on the mailinglist. This creates merge conflicts when applying a patchset. The date itself doesn't provide any additional information when this file is only available in a release tarball or as part of a SCM repository.

2012-05-14Merge branch 'rcu/next' of ↵Ingo Molnar
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu Pull the v3.5 RCU tree from Paul E. McKenney: 1) A set of improvements and fixes to the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ feature (with more on the way for 3.6). Posted to LKML: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/324 (commits 1-3 and 5), https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/16/611 (commit 4), https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/30/390 (commit 6), and https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/4/410 (commit 7, combined with the other commits for the convenience of the tester). 2) Changes to make rcu_barrier() avoid disrupting execution of CPUs that have no RCU callbacks. Posted to LKML: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/322. 3) A couple of commits that improve the efficiency of the interaction between preemptible RCU and the scheduler, these two being all that survived an abortive attempt to allow preemptible RCU's __rcu_read_lock() to be inlined. The full set was posted to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/14/143, and the first and third patches of that set remain. 4) Lai Jiangshan's algorithmic implementation of SRCU, which includes call_srcu() and srcu_barrier(). A major feature of this new implementation is that synchronize_srcu() no longer disturbs the execution of other CPUs. This work is based on earlier implementations by Peter Zijlstra and Paul E. McKenney. Posted to LKML: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/22/82. 5) A number of miscellaneous bug fixes and improvements which were posted to LKML at: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/353 with subsequent updates posted to LKML.
