2010-10-18sched: Force balancing on newidle balance if local group has capacityNikhil Rao
This patch forces a load balance on a newly idle cpu when the local group has extra capacity and the busiest group does not have any. It improves system utilization when balancing tasks with a large weight differential. Under certain situations, such as a niced down task (i.e. nice = -15) in the presence of nr_cpus NICE0 tasks, the niced task lands on a sched group and kicks away other tasks because of its large weight. This leads to sub-optimal utilization of the machine. Even though the sched group has capacity, it does not pull tasks because sds.this_load >> sds.max_load, and f_b_g() returns NULL. With this patch, if the local group has extra capacity, we shortcut the checks in f_b_g() and try to pull a task over. A sched group has extra capacity if the group capacity is greater than the number of running tasks in that group. Thanks to Mike Galbraith for discussions leading to this patch and for the insight to reuse SD_NEWIDLE_BALANCE.

2010-10-18sched: Set group_imb only a task can be pulled from the busiest cpuNikhil Rao
When cycling through sched groups to determine the busiest group, set group_imb only if the busiest cpu has more than 1 runnable task. This patch fixes the case where two cpus in a group have one runnable task each, but there is a large weight differential between these two tasks. The load balancer is unable to migrate any task from this group, and hence do not consider this group to be imbalanced.

2010-10-18sched: Do not consider SCHED_IDLE tasks to be cache hotNikhil Rao
This patch adds a check in task_hot to return if the task has SCHED_IDLE policy. SCHED_IDLE tasks have very low weight, and when run with regular workloads, are typically scheduled many milliseconds apart. There is no need to consider these tasks hot for load balancing.

2010-10-18sched: Drop all load weight manipulation for RT tasksLinus Walleij
Load weights are for the CFS, they do not belong in the RT task. This makes all RT scheduling classes leave the CFS weights alone. This fixes a real bug as well: I noticed the following phonomena: a process elevated to SCHED_RR forks with SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK set, and the child is indeed SCHED_OTHER, and the niceval is indeed reset to 0. However the weight inserted by set_load_weight() remains at 0, giving the task insignificat priority. With this fix, the weight is reset to what the task had before being elevated to SCHED_RR/SCHED_FIFO.

2010-10-18sched: Create special class for stop/migrate workPeter Zijlstra
In order to separate the stop/migrate work thread from the SCHED_FIFO implementation, create a special class for it that is of higher priority than SCHED_FIFO itself. This currently solves a problem where cpu-hotplug consumes so much cpu-time that the SCHED_FIFO class gets throttled, but has the bandwidth replenishment timer pending on the now dead cpu. It is also required for when we add the planned deadline scheduling class above SCHED_FIFO, as the stop/migrate thread still needs to transcent those tasks.

2010-10-13ioat2: fix performance regressionDan Williams
Commit 0793448 "DMAENGINE: generic channel status v2" changed the interface for how dma channel progress is retrieved. It inadvertently exported an internal helper function ioat_tx_status() instead of ioat_dma_tx_status(). The latter polls the hardware to get the latest completion state, while the helper just evaluates the current state without touching hardware. The effect is that we end up waiting for completion timeouts or descriptor allocation errors before the completion state is updated. iperf (before fix): [SUM] 0.0-41.3 sec 364 MBytes 73.9 Mbits/sec iperf (after fix): [SUM] 0.0- 4.5 sec 499 MBytes 940 Mbits/sec This is a regression starting with 2.6.35.

2010-10-12ARM: 6440/1: ep93xx: DMA: fix channel_disableMika Westerberg
When channel_disable() is called, it disables per channel interrupts and waits until channels state becomes STATE_STALL, and then disables the channel. Now, if the DMA transfer is disabled while the channel is in STATE_NEXT we will not wait anything and disable the channel immediately. This seems to cause weird data corruption for example in audio transfers. Fix is to wait while we are in STATE_NEXT or STATE_ON and only then disable the channel.

2010-10-12ring-buffer: Fix typo of time extends per pageSteven Rostedt
Time stamps for the ring buffer are created by the difference between two events. Each page of the ring buffer holds a full 64 bit timestamp. Each event has a 27 bit delta stamp from the last event. The unit of time is nanoseconds, so 27 bits can hold ~134 milliseconds. If two events happen more than 134 milliseconds apart, a time extend is inserted to add more bits for the delta. The time extend has 59 bits, which is good for ~18 years. Currently the time extend is committed separately from the event. If an event is discarded before it is committed, due to filtering, the time extend still exists. If all events are being filtered, then after ~134 milliseconds a new time extend will be added to the buffer. This can only happen till the end of the page. Since each page holds a full timestamp, there is no reason to add a time extend to the beginning of a page. Time extends can only fill a page that has actual data at the beginning, so there is no fear that time extends will fill more than a page without any data. When reading an event, a loop is made to skip over time extends since they are only used to maintain the time stamp and are never given to the caller. As a paranoid check to prevent the loop running forever, with the knowledge that time extends may only fill a page, a check is made that tests the iteration of the loop, and if the iteration is more than the number of time extends that can fit in a page a warning is printed and the ring buffer is disabled (all of ftrace is also disabled with it). There is another event type that is called a TIMESTAMP which can hold 64 bits of data in the theoretical case that two events happen 18 years apart. This code has not been implemented, but the name of this event exists, as well as the structure for it. The size of a TIMESTAMP is 16 bytes, where as a time extend is only 8 bytes. The macro used to calculate how many time extends can fit on a page used the TIMESTAMP size instead of the time extend size cutting the amount in half. The following test case can easily trigger the warning since we only need to have half the page filled with time extends to trigger the warning: # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/ # echo function > current_tracer # echo 'common_pid < 0' > events/ftrace/function/filter # echo > trace # echo 1 > trace_marker # sleep 120 # cat trace Enabling the function tracer and then setting the filter to only trace functions where the process id is negative (no events), then clearing the trace buffer to ensure that we have nothing in the buffer, then write to trace_marker to add an event to the beginning of a page, sleep for 2 minutes (only 35 seconds is probably needed, but this guarantees the bug), and then finally reading the trace which will trigger the bug. This patch fixes the typo and prevents the false positive of that warning. Reported-by: Hans J. Koch <hjk@linutronix.de> Tested-by: Hans J.

2010-10-12fanotify: disable fanotify syscallsEric Paris
This patch disables the fanotify syscalls by just not building them and letting the cond_syscall() statements in kernel/sys_ni.c redirect them to sys_ni_syscall(). It was pointed out by Tvrtko Ursulin that the fanotify interface did not include an explicit prioritization between groups. This is necessary for fanotify to be usable for hierarchical storage management software, as they must get first access to the file, before inotify-like notifiers see the file. This feature can be added in an ABI compatible way in the next release (by using a number of bits in the flags field to carry the info) but it was suggested by Alan that maybe we should just hold off and do it in the next cycle, likely with an (new) explicit argument to the syscall. I don't like this approach best as I know people are already starting to use the current interface, but Alan is all wise and noone on list backed me up with just using what we have. I feel this is needlessly ripping the rug out from under people at the last minute, but if others think it needs to be a new argument it might be the best way forward. Three choices: Go with what we got (and implement the new feature next cycle). Add a new field right now (and implement the new feature next cycle). Wait till next cycle to release the ABI (and implement the new feature next cycle). This is number 3.

2010-10-11x86, AMD, MCE thresholding: Fix the MCi_MISCj iteration orderBorislav Petkov
This fixes possible cases of not collecting valid error info in the MCE error thresholding groups on F10h hardware. The current code contains a subtle problem of checking only the Valid bit of MSR0000_0413 (which is MC4_MISC0 - DRAM thresholding group) in its first iteration and breaking out if the bit is cleared. But (!), this MSR contains an offset value, BlkPtr[31:24], which points to the remaining MSRs in this thresholding group which might contain valid information too. But if we bail out only after we checked the valid bit in the first MSR and not the block pointer too, we miss that other information. The thing is, MC4_MISC0[BlkPtr] is not predicated on MCi_STATUS[MiscV] or MC4_MISC0[Valid] and should be checked prior to iterating over the MCI_MISCj thresholding group, irrespective of the MC4_MISC0[Valid] setting.

2010-10-09kbuild: fix oldnoconfig to do the right thingKyle McMartin
Commit 861b4ea4 broke oldnoconfig when removed the oldnoconfig checks on if (input_mode == nonint_oldconfig || input_mode == oldnoconfig) { if (input_mode == nonint_oldconfig && sym->name && !sym_is_choice_value(sym)) { to avoid oldnoconfig chugging through the else stanza. Fix that to restore expected behaviour (which I've confirmed in the Fedora kernel build that the configs end up looking the same.)

2010-10-09kconfig: Temporarily disable dependency warningsMichal Marek
After fixing a use-after-free bug in kconfig, a 'make defconfig' or 'make allmodconfig' fills the screen with warnings that were not detected before. Given that we are close to the release now, disable the warnings temporarily and deal with them after 2.6.36. Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz>
