2009-09-24futex: Add memory barrier commentary to futex_wait_queue_me()Darren Hart
The memory barrier semantics of futex_wait_queue_me() are non-obvious. Add some commentary to try and clarify it.

2009-09-22futex: Fix wakeup race by setting TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE before queue_me()Darren Hart
PI futexes do not use the same plist_node_empty() test for wakeup. It was possible for the waiter (in futex_wait_requeue_pi()) to set TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE after the waker assigned the rtmutex to the waiter. The waiter would then note the plist was not empty and call schedule(). The task would not be found by any subsequeuent futex wakeups, resulting in a userspace hang. By moving the setting of TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE to before the call to queue_me(), the race with the waker is eliminated. Since we no longer call get_user() from within queue_me(), there is no need to delay the setting of TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE until after the call to queue_me(). The FUTEX_LOCK_PI operation is not affected as futex_lock_pi() relies entirely on the rtmutex code to handle schedule() and wakeup. The requeue PI code is affected because the waiter starts as a non-PI waiter and is woken on a PI futex. Remove the crusty old comment about holding spinlocks() across get_user() as we no longer do that. Correct the locking statement with a description of why the test is performed.

2009-09-22futex: Correct futex_q woken state commentaryDarren Hart
Use kernel-doc format to describe struct futex_q. Correct the wakeup definition to eliminate the statement about waking the waiter between the plist_del() and the q->lock_ptr = 0. Note in the comment that PI futexes have a different definition of the woken state.

2009-09-20x86, apic: Fix missed handling of discrete apicsCyrill Gorcunov
In case of discrete (pretty old) apics we may have cpu_has_apic bit not set but have to check if smp_found_config (MP spec) is there and apic was not disabled. Also don't forget to print apic/io-apic for such case as well. Signed-off-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@openvz.org> Cc: "Maciej W.

2009-09-20sched: Fix raciness in runqueue_is_locked()Andrew Morton
runqueue_is_locked() is unavoidably racy due to a poor interface design. It does cpu = get_cpu() ret = some_perpcu_thing(cpu); put_cpu(cpu); return ret; Its return value is unreliable. Fix.

2009-09-20perf util: SVG performance improvementsArjan van de Ven
Tweak the output SVG to increase performance in SVG viewers by limiting the different types of font sizes and by smarter transformations on the text. At least with Inkscape this gives a notable performance improvement during zoom and scrolling.
