* ext3: Update Kconfig description of EXT3_DEFAULTS_TO_ORDEREDTheodore Ts'o2009-08-241-15/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The old description for this configuration option was perhaps not completely balanced in terms of describing the tradeoffs of using a default of data=writeback vs. data=ordered. Despite the fact that old description very strongly recomended disabling this feature, all of the major distributions have elected to preserve the existing 'legacy' default, which is a strong hint that it perhaps wasn't telling the whole story. This revised description has been vetted by a number of ext3 developers as being better at informing the user about the tradeoffs of enabling or disabling this configuration feature.

| * | KVM: Avoid redelivery of edge interrupt before next edgeGleb Natapov2009-08-091-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The check for an edge is broken in current ioapic code. ioapic->irr is cleared on each edge interrupt by ioapic_service() and this makes old_irr != ioapic->irr condition in kvm_ioapic_set_irq() to be always true. The patch fixes the code to properly recognise edge. Some HW emulation calls set_irq() without level change. If each such call is propagated to an OS it may confuse a device driver. This is the case with keyboard device emulation and Windows XP x64 installer on SMP VM. Each keystroke produce two interrupts (down/up) one interrupt is submitted to CPU0 and another to CPU1. This confuses Windows somehow and it ignores keystrokes. Signed-off-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

There are two options to fix the problem: o move all the s390 specific code to vcpu->wq and remove vcpu->arch.local_int.wq o move all the s390 specific code to vcpu->arch.local_int.wq This patch chooses the 2nd variant for two reasons: o s390 does not use kvm_vcpu_block but implements its own enabled wait handling.

That function doesn't consider the type bits, which means that any modes which differ only in the type field will be lost. One of the bits in the mode->type field is the DRM_MODE_TYPE_PREFERRED bit. If the mode with that bit is lost, then higher level code will not know which mode to select, causing a random mode to be used instead. This patch simply merges the two mode type bits together; that seems reasonable to me, but perhaps only a subset of the bits should be used? None of these can be user defined as they all come from looking at just the hardware. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard <keithp@keithp.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>

A new counter sampling attribute is added: PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD which requests ftrace events record sampling.

For that we need to have an instant access to the perf counter attribute. This is a matter of a flag to add in the struct ftrace_event. - Take care of the events recursivity! Don't ever try to record a lock event for example, it seems some locking is used in the profiling fast path and lead to a tracing recursivity. That will be fixed using raw spinlock or recursivity protection. - [...] - Profit! :-) Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Tom Zanussi <tzanussi@gmail.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi> Cc: Gabriel Munteanu <eduard.munteanu@linux360.ro> Cc: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Well we tracked it down and it is powerpc64 specific. Seems that in drivers/hwmon/lm93.c there's a function called: LM93_IN_FROM_REG() But PPC64 has function descriptors and the real function names (the ones you see in objdump) start with a '.'. Thus this in objdump you have: Disassembly of section .text: 0000000000000000 <.LM93_IN_FROM_REG>: 0: 7c 08 02 a6 mflr r0 4: fb 81 ff e0 std r28,-32(r1) The function name used is .LM93_IN_FROM_REG. But gcc considers symbols that start with ".L" as a special symbol that is used inside the assembly stage. The nm passed into recordmcount uses the --synthetic option which shows the ".L" symbols (my runs outside of the build did not include the --synthetic option, so my older patch worked). We see the function as a local. Now to capture all the locations that use "mcount" we need to have a reference to link into the object file a list of mcount callers. We need a reference that will not disappear. We try to use a global function and if that does not work, we use a local function as a reference. But to relink the section back into the object, we need to make it global. In this case, we run objcopy using --globalize-symbol and --localize-symbol to convert the symbol into a global symbol, link the mcount list, then convert it back to a local symbol. This works great except for this case. .L* symbols can not be converted into a global symbol, and the mcount section referencing it will remain unresolved.

When this triggers it will cause any read from the ring buffer to permanently disable the ring buffer (not to mention no locking of printk). This patch removes the check. It keeps the print in NMI which makes sense. This is probably OK, since the ring buffer should not cause something to set oops_in_progress anyway. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

It should skip incrementing the entry counter if try_to_discard succeeded. But instead, it increments the entry conder if it succeeded to discard, and does not increment it if it fails. The result of this bug is that filtering will make the stat counters incorrect. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
