| | | * cfq-iosched: reset oom_cfqq in cfq_set_request()Vivek Goyal2009-07-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In case memory is scarce, we now default to oom_cfqq. Once memory is available again, we should allocate a new cfqq and stop using oom_cfqq for a particular io context. Once a new request comes in, check if we are using oom_cfqq, and if yes, try to allocate a new cfqq. Tested the patch by forcing the use of oom_cfqq and upon next request thread realized that it was using oom_cfqq and it allocated a new cfqq.

| | | * block: fix sg SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV regressionFUJITA Tomonori2009-07-103-10/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I overlooked SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV support when I converted sg to use the block layer mapping API (2.6.28). Douglas Gilbert explained SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg37135.html = The semantics of SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV were: - copy user space buffer to kernel (LLD) buffer - do SCSI command which is assumed to be of the DATA_IN (data from device) variety. This would overwrite some or all of the kernel buffer - copy kernel (LLD) buffer back to the user space. The idea was to detect short reads by filling the original user space buffer with some marker bytes ("0xec" it would seem in this report). The "resid" value is a better way of detecting short reads but that was only added this century and requires co-operation from the LLD. = This patch changes the block layer mapping API to support this semantics. This simply adds another field to struct rq_map_data and enables __bio_copy_iov() to copy data from user space even with READ requests. It's better to add the flags field and kills null_mapped and the new from_user fields in struct rq_map_data but that approach makes it difficult to send this patch to stable trees because st and osst drivers use struct rq_map_data (they were converted to use the block layer in 2.6.29 and 2.6.30). Well, I should clean up the block layer mapping API. zhou sf reported this regiression and tested this patch: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg37128.html http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg37168.html Reported-by: zhou sf <sxzzsf@gmail.com> Tested-by: zhou sf <sxzzsf@gmail.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, blk_scsi_ioctl_init() is not called since it lacks an initcall marking. This causes the command table to be unitialized, hence somce commands are block when they should not have been.

Since these are kernel memory pointers and we explicitly exclude highmem ranges anyway we cannot ever overflow 32 bits, even if we could. (and on 64-bit it doesnt matter anyway) All in one, this function needs a total revamp. I used Linus's suggestions minus the paranoid checks (we cannot overflow really because if we get totally bad DMA ranges passed far more things break in the systems than just DMA debugging). I also fixed a few other small details i noticed. Reported-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Theses numbers are calculated during the sorting of the branches of the callchain tree using a depth first postfix traversal, so that cumulative hits are propagated in the right order. But if we plan to implement percentages relative to the parent and not absolute percentages (relative to the whole overhead), we need to know the cumulative hits of the parent before computing the children because the relative minimum acceptable number of entries (ie: minimum rate against the cumulative hits from the parent) is the basis to filter the children against a given rate. Then we need to handle the cumul hits on the fly to prepare the implementation of relative overhead rates.

These bugs don't generate warnings on x86 because atomic_read and atomic_set are coded as macros rather than C functions, so we don't get any type-checking on their arguments; similarly for atomic64_read and atomic64_set in 64-bit kernels. This converts them to C functions so that the arguments are type-checked and bugs like this will get caught more easily. It also converts atomic_cmpxchg and atomic_xchg, and atomic64_cmpxchg and atomic64_xchg on 64-bit, so we get type-checking on their arguments too. Compiling a typical 64-bit x86 config, this generates no new warnings, and the vmlinux text is 86 bytes smaller.

That can then be followed by the real cmpxchg8b which sets the value local to the CPU.

Instead we can just rely on cmpxchg8b returning either the new value or returning the current value. We can use any 'old' value, which will be faster as it can be loaded via immediates. Using some value that is not equal to the real value in memory the instruction gets faster. This also has the advantage that the CPU could avoid dirtying the cacheline.

Move them to a separate file: arch/x86/lib/atomic64_32.c Also, while at it, rename all uses of 'unsigned long long' to the much shorter u64. This makes the appearance of the prototypes a lot nicer - and it also uncovered a few bugs where (yet unused) API variants had 'long' as their return type instead of u64.
