* PM / Hibernate: Make default image size depend on total RAM sizeRafael J. Wysocki2010-10-174-3/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | The default hibernation image size is currently hard coded and euqal to 500 MB, which is not a reasonable default on many contemporary systems. Make it equal 2/5 of the total RAM size (this is slightly below the maximum, i.e. 1/2 of the total RAM size, and seems to be generally suitable). Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

* PM / Runtime: Use alloc_workqueue() for creating the PM workqueueRafael J. Wysocki2010-10-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Although we need the PM workqueue to be freezable, we don't need it to be singlethread. Also, the number of concurrent work items running on a single CPU need not be constrained. For these reasons use alloc_workqueue() directly, with suitable arguments, instead of create_freezeable_workqueue(), to create the runtime PM workqueue. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

* PM / Runtime: Lenient generic runtime pm callbacksOhad Ben-Cohen2010-10-171-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow drivers, that belong to subsystems which use the generic runtime pm callbacks, not to define runtime pm suspend/resume handlers, by implicitly assuming success in such cases. This is needed to eliminate nop handlers that would otherwise be necessary by drivers which enable runtime pm, but don't need to do anything when their devices are runtime-suspended/resumed.

In the signals tree here I have static inline void sig_set_blocked(struct sigset_t *set) ... and it's used all over the place (including quite a few places where we currently have sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, set, NULL), which is what it's equivalent to).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently have a kernel internal type called aligned_u64 which aligns __u64's on 8 bytes boundaries even on systems which would normally align them on 4 byte boundaries. This patch creates a new type __aligned_u64 which does the same thing but which is exposed to userspace rather than being kernel internal.

When issuing fails due to memory pressure or other reasons, the device is put on the restart list and issuing stops. On IO completion, devices on the restart list are scanned and IO issuing is restarted. ubd issues IOs sg-by-sg and issuing can be stopped in the middle of a request, so each device on the restart queue needs to remember where to restart in its current request. ubd needs to keep track of the issue position itself because, * blk_rq_pos(req) is now updated by the block layer to keep track of _completion_ position. * Multiple io_req's for the current request may be in flight, so it's difficult to tell where blk_rq_pos(req) currently is. Add ubd->rq_pos to keep track of the issue position and use it to correctly restart io_req issue.

Rather than add yet another include (<asm/unistd.h>) to make everything happy, just uninline the silly core dump helper functions and move the bodies to fs/exec.c where they make a lot more sense. dump_seek() in particular was too big to be an inline function anyway, and none of them are in any way performance-critical. And we really don't need to mess up our include file headers more than they already are.

This switch does not present the usual register interface of a PHY, it presents nothing. So a PHY scan will find nothing - it finds ID's of 0 for each PHY on the attached MII bus. After the FEC driver was changed to use phylib for supporting PHYs it no longer works on this particular board/switch setup. Add code support to use a fixed phy if no PHY is found on the MII bus.

In some situations (e.g. unchecked error conditions), the heap will remain unchanged in areas before copying back to userspace.

Just remove it. Also do the access_ok() check on dump_write(). It probably doesn't matter (since normal filesystems all seem to do it anyway), but he points out that it's normally done by the VFS layer, so ... [ I suspect that we should possibly do "vfs_write()" instead of calling ->write directly. That also does the whole fsnotify and write statistics thing, which may or may not be a good idea. ] And just to be anal, do this all for the x86-64 32-bit a.out emulation code too, even though it's not enabled (and won't currently even compile) Reported-by: akiphie <akiphie@lavabit.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

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.

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.
