2009-02-24x86: fix performance regression in write() syscallSalman Qazi
While the introduction of __copy_from_user_nocache (see commit: 0812a579c92fefa57506821fa08e90f47cb6dbdd) may have been an improvement for sufficiently large writes, there is evidence to show that it is deterimental for small writes. Unixbench's fstime test gives the following results for 256 byte writes with MAX_BLOCK of 2000: 2.6.29-rc6 ( 5 samples, each in KB/sec ): 283750, 295200, 294500, 293000, 293300 2.6.29-rc6 + this patch (5 samples, each in KB/sec): 313050, 3106750, 293350, 306300, 307900 2.6.18 395700, 342000, 399100, 366050, 359850 See w_test() in src/fstime.c in unixbench version 4.1.0. Basically, the above test consists of counting how much we can write in this manner: alarm(10); while (!sigalarm) { for (f_blocks = 0; f_blocks < 2000; ++f_blocks) { write(f, buf, 256); } lseek(f, 0L, 0); } Note, there are other components to the write syscall regression that are not addressed here.

2009-02-23x86: minor cleanup in the espfix codeStas Sergeev
Impact: Cleanup Checkin be44d2aabce2d62f72d5751d1871b6212bf7a1c7 eliminates the use of a 16-bit stack for espfix. However, at least one instruction remained that only operated on the low 16 bits of %esp. This is not a bug per se because the kernel stack is always an aligned 4K or 8K block. Therefore it cannot cross 64K boundaries; this code, in fact, relies strictly on that fact. However, it's a lot cleaner (and, for that matter, smaller) to operate on the entire 32-bit register.

2009-02-23x86: check mptable physptr with max_low_pfn on 32bitYinghai Lu
Impact: fix early crash on LinuxBIOS systems Kevin O'Connor reported that Coreboot aka LinuxBIOS tries to put mptable somewhere very high, well above max_low_pfn (below which BIOSes generally put the mptable), causing a panic. The BIOS will probably be changed to be compatible with older Linus versions, but nevertheless the MP-spec does not forbid an MP-table in arbitrary system RAM, so make sure it all works even if the table is in an unexpected place. Check physptr with max_low_pfn * PAGE_SIZE.

2009-02-23drm/i915: Don't let a device flush to prepare buffers clear new write_domains.Eric Anholt
The problem was that object_set_to_gpu_domain would set the new write_domains that are getting set by this batchbuffer, then the accumulated flushes required for all the objects in preparation for this batchbuffer were posted, and the brand new write domain would get cleared by the flush being posted. Instead, hang on to the new (or old if we're not changing it) value and set it after the flush is queued. Results from this noticably included conformance test failures from reads shortly after writes (where the new write domain had been lost and thus not flushed and waited on), but is a suspected cause of hangs in some apps when a write domain is lost on a buffer that gets reused for instruction or commmand state.

2009-02-23x86: refactor x86_quirks supportIngo Molnar
Impact: cleanup Make x86_quirks support more transparent. The highlevel methods are now named: extern void x86_quirk_pre_intr_init(void); extern void x86_quirk_intr_init(void); extern void x86_quirk_trap_init(void); extern void x86_quirk_pre_time_init(void); extern void x86_quirk_time_init(void); This makes it clear that if some platform extension has to do something here that it is considered ... weird, and is discouraged. Also remove arch_hooks.h and move it into setup.h (and other header files where appropriate). Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2009-02-23x86: remove the Voyager 32-bit subarchIngo Molnar
Impact: remove unused/broken code The Voyager subarch last built successfully on the v2.6.26 kernel and has been stale since then and does not build on the v2.6.27, v2.6.28 and v2.6.29-rc5 kernels. No actual users beyond the maintainer reported this breakage. Patches were sent and most of the fixes were accepted but the discussion around how to do a few remaining issues cleanly fizzled out with no resolution and the code remained broken. In the v2.6.30 x86 tree development cycle 32-bit subarch support has been reworked and removed - and the Voyager code, beyond the build problems already known, needs serious and significant changes and probably a rewrite to support it. CONFIG_X86_VOYAGER has been marked BROKEN then. The maintainer has been notified but no patches have been sent so far to fix it. While all other subarchs have been converted to the new scheme, voyager is still broken. We'd prefer to receive patches which clean up the current situation in a constructive way, but even in case of removal there is no obstacle to add that support back after the issues have been sorted out in a mutually acceptable fashion. So remove this inactive code for now. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-02-23selinux: Fix the NetLabel glue code for setsockopt()Paul Moore
At some point we (okay, I) managed to break the ability for users to use the setsockopt() syscall to set IPv4 options when NetLabel was not active on the socket in question. The problem was noticed by someone trying to use the "-R" (record route) option of ping: # ping -R 10.0.0.1 ping: record route: No message of desired type The solution is relatively simple, we catch the unlabeled socket case and clear the error code, allowing the operation to succeed. Please note that we still deny users the ability to override IPv4 options on socket's which have NetLabel labeling active; this is done to ensure the labeling remains intact.

2009-02-23cipso: Fix documentation commentPaul Moore

For the sake of completeness I've also included a link to the CIPSO draft specification on the NetLabel website. Thanks to Randy Dunlap for spotting the error and letting me know.

2009-02-22docbook: split kernel-api for device-driversRandy Dunlap
The kernel-api docbook was much larger than any of the others, so processing it took longer and needed some docbook extras in some cases, so split it into kernel-api (infrastructure etc.) and device drivers/device subsystems. This allows these docbooks to be generated in parallel. (This reduced the docbook processing time on my 4-proc system with make -j4 from about 5min:16sec to about 2min:01sec.)

2009-02-22x86: Add IRQF_TIMER to legacy x86 timer interrupt descriptorsLinus Torvalds
Right now nobody cares, but the suspend/resume code will eventually want to suspend device interrupts without suspending the timer, and will depend on this flag to know. The modern x86 timer infrastructure uses the local APIC timers and never shows up as a device interrupt at all, so it isn't affected and doesn't need any of this. Cc: Rafael J.

2009-02-21fujitsu-laptop: Use RFKILL support bitmask from firmwareTony Vroon
Up until now, we polled the rfkill status for every incoming FUJ02E3 ACPI event. It turns out that the firmware has a bitmask which indicates what rfkill-related state it can report. The rfkill_supported bitmask is now used to avoid polling for rfkill at all in the notification handler if there is no support. Also, it is used in the platform device callbacks. As before we register all callbacks and report "unknown" if the firmware does not give us status updates for that particular bit. This was fed through checkpatch.pl and tested on the S6420, S7020 and P8010 platforms.

As acpi_enter_sleep_state can fail, take this into account in do_suspend_lowlevel and don't return to the do_suspend_lowlevel's caller. This would break (currently) fpu status and preempt count. Technically, this means use `call' instead of `jmp' and `jmp' to the `resume_point' after the `call' (i.e. if acpi_enter_sleep_state returns=fails). `resume_point' will handle the restore of fpu and preempt count gracefully.
