| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a CPU is taken offline in an SMP system, cpufreq_remove_dev() nulls out the per-cpu policy before cpufreq_stats_free_table() can make use of it. cpufreq_stats_free_table() then skips the call to sysfs_remove_group(), leaving about 100 bytes of sysfs-related memory unclaimed each time a CPU-removal occurs. Break up cpu_stats_free_table into sysfs and table portions, and call the sysfs portion early.

| * [CPUFREQ] use dynamic debug instead of custom infrastructureDominik Brodowski2011-05-0426-474/+270
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With dynamic debug having gained the capability to report debug messages also during the boot process, it offers a far superior interface for debug messages than the custom cpufreq infrastructure. As a first step, remove the old cpufreq_debug_printk() function and replace it with a call to the generic pr_debug() function. How can dynamic debug be used on cpufreq? You need a kernel which has CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG enabled. To enabled debugging during runtime, mount debugfs and $ echo -n 'module cpufreq +p' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control for debugging the complete "cpufreq" module. To achieve the same goal during boot, append ddebug_query="module cpufreq +p" as a boot parameter to the kernel of your choice.

| * [CPUFREQ] CPU hotplug, re-create sysfs directory and symlinksJacob Shin2011-05-041-2/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we discover CPUs that are affected by each other's frequency/voltage transitions, the first CPU gets a sysfs directory created, and rest of the siblings get symlinks. Currently, when we hotplug off only the first CPU, all of the symlinks and the sysfs directory gets removed. Even though rest of the siblings are still online and functional, they are orphaned, and no longer governed by cpufreq. This patch, given the above scenario, creates a sysfs directory for the first sibling and symlinks for the rest of the siblings. Please note the recursive call, it was rather too ugly to roll it out. And the removal of redundant NULL setting (it is already taken care of near the top of the function).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Binutils 2.18.50 made a backwards-incompatible change in the way it writes ELF objects with over 65280 sections, to improve conformance with the ELF specification and interoperability with other ELF tools. Specifically, it no longer adds 256 to section indices SHN_LORESERVE and higher to skip over the reserved range SHN_LORESERVE through SHN_HIRESERVE; those values are only considered special in the st_shndx field, and not in other places where section indices are stored.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There a large number hand-coded binary searches in the kernel (run "git grep search | grep binary" to find many of them). Since in my experience, hand-coding binary searches can be error-prone, it seems worth cleaning this up by providing a generic binary search function. This generic binary search implementation comes from Ksplice. It has the same basic API as the C library bsearch() function. Ksplice uses it in half a dozen places with 4 different comparison functions, and I think our code is substantially cleaner because of this.

Thus the linker will use its SORT() directive to sort and finally merge all symbol in the right and final section (i.e. "__ksymtab"). The symbol prefixed archs use an underscore as prefix for symbols. To avoid collision we use a different character to create the temporary section names.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While debugging I stumbled over two problems in the code that protects module pages. First issue is that disabling the protection before freeing init or unload of a module is not symmetric with the enablement. For instance, if pages are set to RO the page range from module_core to module_core + core_ro_size is protected. If a module is unloaded the page range from module_core to module_core + core_size is set back to RW. So pages that were not set to RO are also changed to RW. This is not critical but IMHO it should be symmetric. Second issue is that while set_memory_rw & set_memory_ro are used for RO/RW changes only set_memory_nx is involved for NX/X. One would await that the inverse function is called when the NX protection should be removed, which is not the case here, unless I'm missing something.

This causes trouble when we try to access elements in this section in array-like fashion when create "version" attributes for built-in modules. Moreover, as DaveM said, we can't reliably put structures into independent objects, put them into a special section, and then expect array access over them (via the section boundaries) after linking the objects together to just "work" due to variable alignment choices in different situations. The only solution that seems to work reliably is to make an array of plain pointers to the objects in question and put those pointers in the special section.

It also replaces <linux/prefetch.h> with <linux/const.h>, because the use of LIST_POISON ends up needing it. <linux/poison.h> is sadly not self-contained, and including prefetch.h just happened to hide that.

On internationally acclaimed benchmarks ("make -j16" on an already fully built kernel source tree) the hlist prefetching slows down the build by up to 1%. (Almost all of it comes from hlist_for_each_entry_rcu() as used by avc_has_perm_noaudit(), which is very hot due to all the pathname lookups to see if there is anything to do). The cause seems to be two-fold: - on at least some Intel cores, prefetch(NULL) ends up with some microarchitectural stall due to the TLB miss that it incurs. The hlist case triggers this very commonly, since the NULL pointer is the last entry in the list. - the prefetch appears to cause more D$ activity, probably because it prefetches hash list entries that are never actually used (because we ended the search early due to a hit). Regardless, the numbers clearly say that the implicit prefetching is simply a bad idea. If some _particular_ user of the hlist iterators wants to prefetch the next list entry, they can do so themselves explicitly, rather than depend on all list iterators doing so implicitly.

This patch slows the spin by making the thread wait for the recovery to kick in. Signed-off-by: Sunil Mushran <sunil.mushran@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <jlbec@evilplan.org>

| * | | ocfs2/cluster: Increase the live threshold for global heartbeatSunil Mushran2011-05-131-1/+12

One plausible reasoning for it is that other node had a hb io delay at the same time. The live threshold set at 2 (as low as it can be) could be increased to ameliorate the situation. But increasing the threshold directly affects mount time. Currently it takes around 5 secs to mount a volume in o2cb cluster with local heartbeat. Increasing the threshold will make mounts even slower. As the issue itself is rare, we have left things as they are for the local heartbeat mode. However we can improve the situation for global heartbeat mode as in that mode, we start the heartbeat much before the mount. This patch doubles the live threshold for the start of the first region in global heartbeat mode. Addresses internal Oracle bug#10635585.

| * | | ocfs2/dlm: Use negotiated o2dlm protocol versionSunil Mushran2011-05-131-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch fixes a bug in the o2dlm protocol negotiation in that it is using the builtin version rather than the negotiated version during the domain join. This causes join errors when a node having kernel >= 2.6.37 joins a cluster with nodes having kernels < 2.6.37. This only affects the o2cb cluster stack.

| * | | ocfs2: skip existing hole when removing the last extent_rec in punching-hole ↵Tristan Ye2011-05-131-0/+12

In the case of removing a partial extent record which covers a hole, current punching-hole logic will try to remove more than the length of whole extent record, which leads to the failure of following assert(fs/ocfs2/alloc.c): 5507 BUG_ON(cpos < le32_to_cpu(rec->e_cpos) || trunc_range > rec_range); This patch tries to skip existing hole at the last attempt of removing a partial extent record, what's more, it also adds some necessary comments for better understanding of punching-hole codes.

This was unsafe because matching is not an atomic operation with probing a driver. If two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get overwritten. This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to call of_match_device() directly instead. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>

Only write the result if the device matches. In a thread titled "SBus devices sometimes detected, sometimes not", Meelis reported his SBus hme was not detected about 50% of the time. From the debug suggested by Grant it was obvious another driver matched some devices between the call to match the hme and the hme discovery failling.
