2010-07-22x86 cpufreq, perf: Make trace_power_frequency cpufreq driver independentThomas Renninger
and fix the broken case if a core's frequency depends on others. trace_power_frequency was only implemented in a rather ungeneric way in acpi-cpufreq driver's target() function only. -> Move the call to trace_power_frequency to cpufreq.c:cpufreq_notify_transition() where CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier is triggered. This will support power frequency tracing by all cpufreq drivers. trace_power_frequency did not trace frequency changes correctly when the userspace governor was used or when CPU cores' frequency depend on each other. -> Moving this into the CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and pass the cpu which gets switched automatically fixes this. Robert Schoene provided some important fixes on top of my initial quick shot version which are integrated in this patch: - Forgot some changes in power_end trace (TP_printk/variable names) - Variable dummy in power_end must now be cpu_id - Use static 64 bit variable instead of unsigned int for cpu_id [akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fix] Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Cc: davej@codemonkey.org.uk Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Dave Jones <davej@codemonkey.org.uk> Acked-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org> Cc: Robert Schoene <robert.schoene@tu-dresden.de> Tested-by: Robert Schoene <robert.schoene@tu-dresden.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>

2010-07-21tracing: Allow to disable cmdline recordingLi Zefan
We found that even enabling a single trace event that will rarely be triggered can add big overhead to context switch.

It's because when a trace event is enabled 3 tracepoints (sched_switch, sched_wakeup, sched_wakeup_new) will be activated to map pid to cmdname. We'd like to avoid this overhead, so add a trace option '(no)record-cmd' to allow to disable cmdline recording.

2010-07-21math-emu: correct test for downshifting fraction in _FP_FROM_INT()Mikael Pettersson
The kernel's math-emu code contains a macro _FP_FROM_INT() which is used to convert an integer to a raw normalized floating-point value. It does this basically in three steps: 1. Compute the exponent from the number of leading zero bits. 2. Downshift large fractions to put the MSB in the right position for normalized fractions. 3. Upshift small fractions to put the MSB in the right position. There is an boundary error in step 2, causing a fraction with its MSB exactly one bit above the normalized MSB position to not be downshifted. This results in a non-normalized raw float, which when packed becomes a massively inaccurate representation for that input. The impact of this depends on a number of arch-specific factors, but it is known to have broken emulation of FXTOD instructions on UltraSPARC III, which was originally reported as GCC bug 44631 <http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44631>. Any arch which uses math-emu to emulate conversions from integers to same-size floats may be affected. The fix is simple: the exponent comparison used to determine if the fraction should be downshifted must be "<=" not "<". I'm sending a kernel module to test this as a reply to this message. There are also SPARC user-space test cases in the GCC bug entry. Signed-off-by: Mikael Pettersson <mikpe@it.uu.se> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-07-20vfs: fix RCU-lockdep false positive due to /procPaul E. McKenney
If a single-threaded process does a file-descriptor operation, and some other process accesses that same file descriptor via /proc, the current rcu_dereference_check_fdtable() can give a false-positive RCU-lockdep splat due to the reference count being increased by the /proc access after the reference-count check in fget_light() but before the check in rcu_dereference_check_fdtable(). This commit prevents this false positive by checking for a single-threaded process. To avoid #include hell, this commit uses the wrapper for thread_group_empty(current) defined by rcu_my_thread_group_empty() provided in a separate commit.

2010-07-16PCI: fall back to original BIOS BAR addressesBjorn Helgaas
If we fail to assign resources to a PCI BAR, this patch makes us try the original address from BIOS rather than leaving it disabled. Linux tries to make sure all PCI device BARs are inside the upstream PCI host bridge or P2P bridge apertures, reassigning BARs if necessary. Windows does similar reassignment. Before this patch, if we could not move a BAR into an aperture, we left the resource unassigned, i.e., at address zero. Windows leaves such BARs at the original BIOS addresses, and this patch makes Linux do the same. This is a bit ugly because we disable the resource long before we try to reassign it, so we have to keep track of the BIOS BAR address somewhere. For lack of a better place, I put it in the struct pci_dev. I think it would be cleaner to attempt the assignment immediately when the claim fails, so we could easily remember the original address. But we currently claim motherboard resources in the middle, after attempting to claim PCI resources and before assigning new PCI resources, and changing that is a fairly big job.

2010-07-15jbd2/ocfs2: Fix block checksumming when a buffer is used in several transactionsJan Kara
OCFS2 uses t_commit trigger to compute and store checksum of the just committed blocks. When a buffer has b_frozen_data, checksum is computed for it instead of b_data but this can result in an old checksum being written to the filesystem in the following scenario: 1) transaction1 is opened 2) handle1 is opened 3) journal_access(handle1, bh) - This sets jh->b_transaction to transaction1 4) modify(bh) 5) journal_dirty(handle1, bh) 6) handle1 is closed 7) start committing transaction1, opening transaction2 8) handle2 is opened 9) journal_access(handle2, bh) - This copies off b_frozen_data to make it safe for transaction1 to commit. jh->b_next_transaction is set to transaction2. 10) jbd2_journal_write_metadata() checksums b_frozen_data 11) the journal correctly writes b_frozen_data to the disk journal 12) handle2 is closed - There was no dirty call for the bh on handle2, so it is never queued for any more journal operation 13) Checkpointing finally happens, and it just spools the bh via normal buffer writeback. This will write b_data, which was never triggered on and thus contains a wrong (old) checksum. This patch fixes the problem by calling the trigger at the moment data is frozen for journal commit - i.e., either when b_frozen_data is created by do_get_write_access or just before we write a buffer to the log if b_frozen_data does not exist. We also rename the trigger to t_frozen as that better describes when it is called.

2010-07-15net: fix problem in reading sock TX queueTom Herbert
Fix problem in reading the tx_queue recorded in a socket. In dev_pick_tx, the TX queue is read by doing a check with sk_tx_queue_recorded on the socket, followed by a sk_tx_queue_get. The problem is that there is not mutual exclusion across these calls in the socket so it it is possible that the queue in the sock can be invalidated after sk_tx_queue_recorded is called so that sk_tx_queue get returns -1, which sets 65535 in queue_index and thus dev_pick_tx returns 65536 which is a bogus queue and can cause crash in dev_queue_xmit. We fix this by only calling sk_tx_queue_get which does the proper checks. The interface is that sk_tx_queue_get returns the TX queue if the sock argument is non-NULL and TX queue is recorded, else it returns -1. sk_tx_queue_recorded is no longer used so it can be completely removed.

For some reason if we declare a static variable and then assign it later, and the assignment contains a __attribute__((__aligned__(#))), some versions of gcc will ignore it. This caused the syscall meta data to not be compact in its section and caused a kernel oops when the section was being read. The fix for these versions of gcc seems to be to add the aligned attribute to the declaration as well.

This patch introduces 3 VFS accessors: 'sb_mark_dirty()', 'sb_mark_clean()', and 'sb_is_dirty()'. They simply set 'sb->s_dirt' or test 'sb->s_dirt'. The plan is to make every FS use these accessors later instead of manipulating the 'sb->s_dirt' flag directly. Ultimately, this change is a preparation for the periodic superblock synchronization optimization which is about preventing the "sync_supers" kernel thread from waking up even if there is nothing to synchronize.

First remove items from work_list as soon as we start working on them. This means we don't have to track any pending or visited state and can get rid of all the RCU magic freeing the work items - we can simply free them once the operation has finished. Second use a real completion for tracking synchronous requests - if the caller sets the completion pointer we complete it, otherwise use it as a boolean indicator that we can free the work item directly. Third unify struct wb_writeback_args and struct bdi_work into a single data structure, wb_writeback_work. Previous we set all parameters into a struct wb_writeback_args, copied it into struct bdi_work, copied it again on the stack to use it there. Instead of just allocate one structure dynamically or on the stack and use it all the way through the stack.

netif_vdbg() was originally defined as entirely equivalent to netdev_vdbg(), but I assume that it was intended to take the same parameters as netif_dbg() etc. (Currently it is only used by the sfc driver, in which I worked on that assumption.) In commit a4ed89c I changed the definition used when VERBOSE_DEBUG is not defined, but I failed to notice that the definition used when VERBOSE_DEBUG is defined was also not as I expected. Change that to match netif_dbg() as well. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-07-05rbtree: Undo augmented trees performance damage and regressionPeter Zijlstra
Reimplement augmented RB-trees without sprinkling extra branches all over the RB-tree code (which lives in the scheduler hot path). This approach is 'borrowed' from Fabio's BFQ implementation and relies on traversing the rebalance path after the RB-tree-op to correct the heap property for insertion/removal and make up for the damage done by the tree rotations. For insertion the rebalance path is trivially that from the new node upwards to the root, for removal it is that from the deepest node in the path from the to be removed node that will still be around after the removal.

2010-07-05module: initialize module dynamic debug laterYehuda Sadeh
We should initialize the module dynamic debug datastructures only after determining that the module is not loaded yet. This fixes a bug that introduced in 2.6.35-rc2, where when a trying to load a module twice, we also load it's dynamic printing data twice which causes all sorts of nasty issues. Also handle the dynamic debug cleanup later on failure.

2010-07-03net: decreasing real_num_tx_queues needs to flush qdiscJohn Fastabend
Reducing real_num_queues needs to flush the qdisc otherwise skbs with queue_mappings greater then real_num_tx_queues can be sent to the underlying driver. The flow for this is, dev_queue_xmit() dev_pick_tx() skb_tx_hash() => hash using real_num_tx_queues skb_set_queue_mapping() ... qdisc_enqueue_root() => enqueue skb on txq from hash ... dev->real_num_tx_queues -= n ... sch_direct_xmit() dev_hard_start_xmit() ndo_start_xmit(skb,dev) => skb queue set with old hash skbs are enqueued on the qdisc with skb->queue_mapping set 0 < queue_mappings < real_num_tx_queues. When the driver decreases real_num_tx_queues skb's may be dequeued from the qdisc with a queue_mapping greater then real_num_tx_queues. This fixes a case in ixgbe where this was occurring with DCB and FCoE. Because the driver is using queue_mapping to map skbs to tx descriptor rings we can potentially map skbs to rings that no longer exist.

2010-07-01sched: Cure nr_iowait_cpu() usersPeter Zijlstra
Commit 0224cf4c5e (sched: Intoduce get_cpu_iowait_time_us()) broke things by not making sure preemption was indeed disabled by the callers of nr_iowait_cpu() which took the iowait value of the current cpu. This resulted in a heap of preempt warnings. Cure this by making nr_iowait_cpu() take a cpu number and fix up the callers to pass in the right number.
