2008-04-29Taint kernel after WARN_ON(condition)Nur Hussein
The kernel is sent to tainted within the warn_on_slowpath() function, and whenever a warning occurs the new taint flag 'W' is set. This is useful to know if a warning occurred before a BUG by preserving the warning as a flag in the taint state. This does not work on architectures where WARN_ON has its own definition. These archs are: 1. s390 2. superh 3. avr32 4. parisc The maintainers of these architectures have been added in the Cc: list in this email to alert them to the situation. The documentation in oops-tracing.txt has been updated to include the new flag.

2008-04-29epoll: avoid kmemcheck warningDavide Libenzi
Epoll calls rb_set_parent(n, n) to initialize the rb-tree node, but rb_set_parent() accesses node's pointer in its code. This creates a warning in kmemcheck (reported by Vegard Nossum) about an uninitialized memory access. The warning is harmless since the following rb-tree node insert is going to overwrite the node data. In any case I think it's better to not have that happening at all, and fix it by simplifying the code to get rid of a few lines that became superfluous after the previous epoll changes.

2008-04-29page allocator: explicitly retry hugepage allocationsNishanth Aravamudan
Add __GFP_REPEAT to hugepage allocations. Do so to not necessitate userspace putting pressure on the VM by repeated echo's into /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages to grow the pool. With the previous patch to allow for large-order __GFP_REPEAT attempts to loop for a bit (as opposed to indefinitely), this increases the likelihood of getting hugepages when the system experiences (or recently experienced) load. Mel tested the patchset on an x86_32 laptop. With the patches, it was easier to use the proc interface to grow the hugepage pool. The following is the output of a script that grows the pool as much as possible running on 2.6.25-rc9. Allocating hugepages test ------------------------- Disabling OOM Killer for current test process Starting page count: 0 Attempt 1: 57 pages Progress made with 57 pages Attempt 2: 73 pages Progress made with 16 pages Attempt 3: 74 pages Progress made with 1 pages Attempt 4: 75 pages Progress made with 1 pages Attempt 5: 77 pages Progress made with 2 pages 77 pages was the most it allocated but it took 5 attempts from userspace to get it. With the 3 patches in this series applied, Allocating hugepages test ------------------------- Disabling OOM Killer for current test process Starting page count: 0 Attempt 1: 75 pages Progress made with 75 pages Attempt 2: 76 pages Progress made with 1 pages Attempt 3: 79 pages Progress made with 3 pages And 79 pages was the most it got. Your patches were able to allocate the bulk of possible pages on the first attempt.

2008-04-29page allocator: smarter retry of costly-order allocationsNishanth Aravamudan
Because of page order checks in __alloc_pages(), hugepage (and similarly large order) allocations will not retry unless explicitly marked __GFP_REPEAT. However, the current retry logic is nearly an infinite loop (or until reclaim does no progress whatsoever). For these costly allocations, that seems like overkill and could potentially never terminate. Mel observed that allowing current __GFP_REPEAT semantics for hugepage allocations essentially killed the system. I believe this is because we may continue to reclaim small orders of pages all over, but never have enough to satisfy the hugepage allocation request. This is clearly only a problem for large order allocations, of which hugepages are the most obvious (to me). Modify try_to_free_pages() to indicate how many pages were reclaimed. Use that information in __alloc_pages() to eventually fail a large __GFP_REPEAT allocation when we've reclaimed an order of pages equal to or greater than the allocation's order. This relies on lumpy reclaim functioning as advertised. Due to fragmentation, lumpy reclaim may not be able to free up the order needed in one invocation, so multiple iterations may be requred. In other words, the more fragmented memory is, the more retry attempts __GFP_REPEAT will make (particularly for higher order allocations). This changes the semantics of __GFP_REPEAT subtly, but *only* for allocations > PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER. With this patch, for those size allocations, we will try up to some point (at least 1<<order reclaimed pages), rather than forever (which is the case for allocations <= PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER). This change improves the /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages interface with a follow-on patch that makes pool allocations use __GFP_REPEAT. Rather than administrators repeatedly echo'ing a particular value into the sysctl, and forcing reclaim into action manually, this change allows for the sysctl to attempt a reasonable effort itself. Similarly, dynamic pool growth should be more successful under load, as lumpy reclaim can try to free up pages, rather than failing right away. Choosing to reclaim only up to the order of the requested allocation strikes a balance between not failing hugepage allocations and returning to the caller when it's unlikely to every succeed. Because of lumpy reclaim, if we have freed the order requested, hopefully it has been in big chunks and those chunks will allow our allocation to succeed. If that isn't the case after freeing up the current order, I don't think it is likely to succeed in the future, although it is possible given a particular fragmentation pattern.

2008-04-29mm: fix misleading __GFP_REPEAT related commentsNishanth Aravamudan
The definition and use of __GFP_REPEAT, __GFP_NOFAIL and __GFP_NORETRY in the core VM have somewhat differing comments as to their actual semantics. Annoyingly, the flags definition has inline and header comments, which might be interpreted as not being equivalent. Just add references to the header comments in the inline ones so they don't go out of sync in the future. In their use in __alloc_pages() clarify that the current implementation treats low-order allocations and __GFP_REPEAT allocations as distinct cases. To clarify, the flags' semantics are: __GFP_NORETRY means try no harder than one run through __alloc_pages __GFP_REPEAT means __GFP_NOFAIL __GFP_NOFAIL means repeat forever order <= PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER means __GFP_NOFAIL Signed-off-by: Nishanth Aravamudan <nacc@us.ibm.com> Acked-by: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Bit 5 controls the "reduce backlight levels when on battery" optional functionality (active low). Bits 6 and 7 are better left alone as well, instead of being forced to zero.

thinkpad-acpi knows for a while now how to best program the hotkeys by default, and always enable them by default. Unfortunately, this information has not filtered down everywhere it needs to, yet. Notably, old ibm-acpi documentation and most "thinkpad setup guides" will have wrong information on this area. Warn the local admin once whenever any of the following patterns are met: 1. Attempts to set hotkey mask to 0xffff (artifact from docs and config for the old ibm-acpi driver and behaviour). This mask makes no real-world sense; 2. Attempts to set hotkey mask to 0xffffffff, which means the user is trying to just have "everything work" without even reading the documentation, or that we need to get a bug report, because there is a new thinkpad out there with new exciting hot keys :-) 3. Attempts to set hotkey mask to 0xffffff, which is almost never the correct way to set up volume and brightness event reporting (and with the current state-of-the-art, it is known to never be right way to do it). The driver will perform any and all requested operations, though, regardless of any warnings. I hope these warnings can be removed one or two years from now.

2008-04-29ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: BIOS backlight mode helper (v2.1)Henrique de Moraes Holschuh
Lenovo ThinkPads with generic ACPI backlight level control can be easily set to react to keyboard brightness key presses in a more predictable way than what they do when in "DOS / bootloader" mode after Linux brings up the ACPI interface. The switch to the ACPI backlight mode in the firmware is designed to be safe to use only as an one way trapdoor. One is not to force the firmware to switch back to "DOS/bootloader" mode except by rebooting. The mode switch itself is performed by calling any of the ACPI _BCL methods at least once. When in ACPI mode, the backlight firmware just issues (standard) events for the brightness up/down hot key presses along with the non-standard HKEY events which thinkpad-acpi traps, and doesn't touch the hardware. thinkpad-acpi will: 1. Place the ThinkPad firmware in ACPI backlight control mode if one is available 2. Suppress HKEY backlight change notifications by default to avoid double-reporting when ACPI video is loaded when the ThinkPad is in ACPI backlight control mode 3. Urge the user to load the ACPI video driver The user is free to use either the ACPI video driver to get the brightness key events, or to override the thinkpad-acpi default hotkey mask to get them from thinkpad-acpi as well (this will result in duplicate events if ACPI video is loaded, so let's hope distros won't screw this up). Provided userspace is sane, all should work (and *keep* working), which is more that can be said about the non-ACPI mode of the new Lenovo ThinkPad BIOSes when coupled to current userspace and X.org drivers.

2008-04-29[POWERPC] mpc5200: defconfigs for CM5200, Lite5200B, Motion-PRO and TQM5200Bartlomiej Sieka
Board-specific defconfigs based on current mpc5200_defconfig, archival lite5200_defconfig, and [cm5200|motionpro|tqm5200]_defconfig from the linux-2.6-denx tree. Kernels build using these defconfigs were verified to boot with root filesystem mounted over NFS on Motion-PRO, TQM5200 and Lite5200B boards. CM5200 target was not tested due to hardware unavailability. Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Sieka <tur@semihalf.com> Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>

2008-04-29[POWERPC] mpc5200: Fix FEC error handling on FIFO errorsSascha Hauer
The error handling for the mpc5200 fec interrupt is broken. The intended behaviour is like this: * If one of FEC_IEVENT_RFIFO_ERROR and FEC_IEVENT_XFIFO_ERROR happens, the datasheet says (MPC5200B User's Guide R1.2, p. 14-13): "When this occurs, software must ensure both the FIFO Controller and BestComm are soft-reset". * On any other error (non-TFINT) interrupt, just issue a debug message.

2008-04-29block: Skip I/O merges when disabledAlan D. Brunelle
The block I/O + elevator + I/O scheduler code spend a lot of time trying to merge I/Os -- rightfully so under "normal" circumstances. However, if one were to know that the incoming I/O stream was /very/ random in nature, the cycles are wasted. This patch adds a per-request_queue tunable that (when set) disables merge attempts (beyond the simple one-hit cache check), thus freeing up a non-trivial amount of CPU cycles. Signed-off-by: Alan D.

2008-04-29block: add large command supportFUJITA Tomonori
This patch changes rq->cmd from the static array to a pointer to support large commands. We rarely handle large commands. So for optimization, a struct request still has a static array for a command. rq_init sets rq->cmd pointer to the static array.
