* [PATCH] Fix microcode-related suspend problemRafael J. Wysocki2007-04-021-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix the regression resulting from the recent change of suspend code ordering that causes systems based on Intel x86 CPUs using the microcode driver to hang during the resume. The problem occurs since the microcode driver uses request_firmware() in its CPU hotplug notifier, which is called after tasks has been frozen and hangs. It can be fixed by telling the microcode driver to use the microcode stored in memory during the resume instead of trying to load it from disk. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

* | ide: use correct IDE error recoverySuleiman Souhlal2007-03-261-0/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | IDE error recovery is using IDLE IMMEDIATE if the drive is busy or has DRQ set. This violates the ATA spec (can only send IDLE IMMEDIATE when drive is not busy) and really hoses up some drives (modern drives will not be able to recover using this error handling). The correct thing to do is issue a SRST followed by a SET FEATURES command. This is what Western Digital recommends for error recovery and what Western Digital says Windows does.  It also does not violate the ATA spec as far as I can tell. Bart: * port the patch over the current tree * undo the recalibration code removal * send SET FEATURES command after checking for good drive status * don't check whether the current request is of REQ_TYPE_ATA_{CMD,TASK} type because we need to send SET FEATURES before handling any requests * some pre-ATA4 drives require INITIALIZE DEVICE PARAMETERS command before other commands (except IDENTIFY) so send SET FEATURES only if there are no pending drive->special requests * update comments and patch description * any bugs introduced by this patch are mine and not Suleiman's :-) Signed-off-by: Suleiman Souhlal <suleiman@google.com> Acked-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>

Also it implements its own waitqueue. Replace this by a more regular congestion implementation that puts a cap on the number of active writeback pages and uses the bdi congestion waitqueue. Also always use an interruptible wait since it makes sense to be able to SIGKILL the process even for mounts without 'intr'.

* [PATCH] spi: destroy workqueue after spi_unregister_masterChris Lesiak2007-03-161-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix a bug in the cleanup of an spi_bitbang bus. The workqueue associated with the bus was destroyed before the call to spi_unregister_master. That meant that spi devices on that bus would be unable to do IO in their remove method. The shutdown flag should have been able to prevent a segfault, but was never getting set. By waiting to destroy the workqueue until after the master is unregistered, devices are able to do IO in their remove methods. An added benefit is that neither the shutdown flag nor a wait for the queue of messages to empty is needed.

* [PATCH] sysfs and driver core: add callback helper, used by SCSI and S390Alan Stern2007-03-152-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as868) adds a helper routine for device drivers that need to set up a callback to perform some action in a different process's context. This is intended for use by attribute methods that want to unregister themselves or their parent device. Attribute method calls are mutually exclusive with unregistration, so such actions cannot be taken directly. Two attribute methods are converted to use the new helper routine: one for SCSI device deletion and one for System/390 ccwgroup devices.

* [PATCH] pci: Repair pci_save/restore_state so we can restore one save many ↵Eric W. Biederman2007-03-121-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | times. Because we do not reserve space for the pci-x and pci-e state in struct pci dev we need to dynamically allocate it. However because we need to support restore being called multiple times after a single save it is never safe to free the buffers we have allocated to hold the state. So this patch modifies the save routines to first check to see if we have already allocated a state buffer before allocating a new one. Then the restore routines are modified to not free the state after restoring it. Simple and it fixes some subtle error path handling bugs, that are hard to test for. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [PATCH] msi: Safer state caching.Eric W. Biederman2007-03-122-5/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are two ways pci_save_state and pci_restore_state are used. As helper functions during suspend/resume, and as helper functions around a hardware reset event. When used as helper functions around a hardware reset event there is no reason to believe the calls will be paired, nor is there a good reason to believe that if we restore the msi state from before the reset that it will match the current msi state. Since arch code may change the msi message without going through the driver, drivers currently do not have enough information to even know when to call pci_save_state to ensure they will have msi state in sync with the other kernel irq reception data structures. It turns out the solution is straight forward, cache the state in the existing msi data structures (not the magic pci saved things) and have the msi code update the cached state each time we write to the hardware. This means we never need to read the hardware to figure out what the hardware state should be. By modifying the caching in this manner we get to remove our save_state routines and only need to provide restore_state routines. The only fields that were at all tricky to regenerate were the msi and msi-x control registers and the way we regenerate them currently is a bit dependent upon assumptions on how we use the allow msi registers to be configured and used making the code a little bit brittle. If we ever change what cases we allow or how we configure the msi bits we can address the fragility then. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

This can happen in combination with the conntrack event cache, which holds a reference to the conntrack entry, which is only released when the packet makes it all the way through the stack or a different packet is handled. - taking references to an unconfirmed entry and using it outside the locked section doesn't work, the list entries are not refcounted and another CPU might already be waiting to destroy the entry What the code really wants to do is make sure the references of the hash table to the selected conntrack entries are released, so they will be destroyed once all references from skbs and the event cache are dropped. Since unconfirmed entries haven't even entered the hash yet, simply mark them as dying and skip confirmation based on that.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In active-backup mode, the current bonding code duplicates IGMP traffic to all slaves, so that switches are up to date in case of a failover from an active to a backup interface. If bonding then fails back to the original active interface, it is likely that the "active slave" switch's IGMP forwarding for the port will be out of date until some event occurs to refresh the switch (e.g., a membership query). This patch alters the behavior of bonding to no longer flood IGMP to all ports, and to issue IGMP JOINs to the newly active port at the time of a failover. This insures that switches are kept up to date for all cases. "GOELLESCH Niels" <niels.goellesch@eurocontrol.int> originally reported this problem, and included a patch. His original patch was modified by Jay Vosburgh to additionally remove the existing IGMP flood behavior, use RCU, streamline code paths, fix trailing white space, and adjust for style.

* | [PATCH] knfsd: fix recently introduced problem with shutting down a busy NFS ↵NeilBrown2007-03-061-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | server When the last thread of nfsd exits, it shuts down all related sockets. It currently uses svc_close_socket to do this, but that only is immediately effective if the socket is not SK_BUSY. If the socket is busy - i.e. if a request has arrived that has not yet been processes - svc_close_socket is not effective and the shutdown process spins. So create a new svc_force_close_socket which removes the SK_BUSY flag is set and then calls svc_close_socket. Also change some open-codes loops in svc_destroy to use list_for_each_entry_safe.

* [PATCH] timer/hrtimer: take per cpu locks in sane orderHeiko Carstens2007-03-051-0/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Doing something like this on a two cpu system # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/online # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/online # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online will give me this: ======================================================= [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 2.6.21-rc2-g562aa1d4-dirty #7 ------------------------------------------------------- bash/1282 is trying to acquire lock: (&cpu_base->lock_key){.+..}, at: [<000000000005f17e>] hrtimer_cpu_notify+0xc6/0x240 but task is already holding lock: (&cpu_base->lock_key#2){.+..}, at: [<000000000005f174>] hrtimer_cpu_notify+0xbc/0x240 which lock already depends on the new lock. This happens because we have the following code in kernel/hrtimer.c: migrate_hrtimers(int cpu) [...] old_base = &per_cpu(hrtimer_bases, cpu); new_base = &get_cpu_var(hrtimer_bases); [...] spin_lock(&new_base->lock); spin_lock(&old_base->lock); Which means the spinlocks are taken in an order which depends on which cpu gets shut down from which other cpu. Therefore lockdep complains that there might be an ABBA deadlock. Since migrate_hrtimers() gets only called on cpu hotplug it's safe to assume that it isn't executed concurrently on a The same problem exists in kernel/timer.c: migrate_timers(). As pointed out by Christian Borntraeger one possible solution to avoid the locking order complaints would be to make sure that the locks are always taken in the same order. E.g. by taking the lock of the cpu with the lower number first. To achieve this we introduce two new spinlock functions double_spin_lock and double_spin_unlock which lock or unlock two locks in a given order.

If sys_migrate_pages is called to move pages then we check for vm_flags that indicate a non migratable vma but that still includes VM_LOCKED and we can migrate mlocked pages. Extract the vma_migratable check from mm/mempolicy.c, fix it and put it into migrate.h so that is can be used from both locations.

* [PATCH] sched: remove SMT niceCon Kolivas2007-03-052-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the SMT-nice feature which idles sibling cpus on SMT cpus to facilitiate nice working properly where cpu power is shared. The idling of cpus in the presence of runnable tasks is considered too fragile, easy to break with outside code, and the complexity of managing this system if an architecture comes along with many logical cores sharing cpu power will be unworkable. Remove the associated per_cpu_gain variable in sched_domains used only by this code. Also: The reason is that with dynticks enabled, this code breaks without yet further tweaks so dynticks brought on the rapid demise of this code. So either we tweak this code or kill it off entirely. It was Ingo's preference to kill it off. Either way this needs to happen for 2.6.21 since dynticks has gone in.

* [PATCH] msi: sanely support hardware level msi disablingEric W. Biederman2007-03-052-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some cases when we are not using msi we need a way to ensure that the hardware does not have an msi capability enabled. Currently the code has been calling disable_msi_mode to try and achieve that. However disable_msi_mode has several other side effects and is only available when msi support is compiled in so it isn't really appropriate. Instead this patch implements pci_msi_off which disables all msi and msix capabilities unconditionally with no additional side effects. pci_disable_device was redundantly clearing the bus master enable flag and clearing the msi enable bit. A device that is not allowed to perform bus mastering operations cannot generate intx or msi interrupt messages as those are essentially a special case of dma, and require bus mastering. So the call in pci_disable_device to disable msi capabilities was redundant. quirk_pcie_pxh also called disable_msi_mode and is updated to use pci_msi_off. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
