Remove stop_machine during module load v2
module loading currently does a stop_machine on each module load to insert
the module into the global module lists. Especially on larger systems this
can be quite expensive.
It does that to handle concurrent lock lessmodule list readers
like kallsyms.
I don't think stop_machine() is actually needed to insert something
into a list though. There are no concurrent writers because the
module mutex is taken. And the RCU list functions know how to insert
a node into a list with the right memory ordering so that concurrent
readers don't go off into the wood.
So remove the stop_machine for the module list insert and just
do a list_add_rcu() instead.
Module removal will still do a stop_machine of course, it needs
that for other reasons.
v2: Revised readers based on Paul's comments. All readers that only
rely on disabled preemption need to be changed to list_for_each_rcu().
Done that. The others are ok because they have the modules mutex.
Also added a possible missing preempt disable for print_modules().
[cc Paul McKenney for review. It's not RCU, but quite similar.]

Linus' recent catch of stack overflow in load_module lead me to look
at the code. A couple of helpers to get a section address and get
objects from a section can help clean things up a little.
(And in case you're wondering, the stack size also dropped from 328 to
284 bytes).

commit fb02fbc14d17837b4b7b02dbb36142c16a7bf208 (NOHZ: restart tick
device from irq_enter())
solves the problem of stale jiffies when long running softirqs happen
in a long idle sleep period, but it has a major thinko in it:
When the interrupt which came in _is_ the timer interrupt which should
expire ts->sched_timer then we cancel and rearm the timer _before_ it
gets expired in hrtimer_interrupt() to the next period. That means the
call back function is not called. This game can go on for ever :(
Prevent this by making sure to only rearm the timer when the expiry
time is more than one tick_period away. Otherwise keep it running as
it is either already expired or will expiry at the right point to
update jiffies.

This patch removes the DM_WQ_FLUSH_ALL state that is unnecessary.
The dm_queue_flush(md, DM_WQ_FLUSH_ALL, NULL) in dm_suspend()
is never invoked because:
- 'goto flush_and_out' is the same as 'goto out' because
the 'goto flush_and_out' is called only when '!noflush'
- If r is non-zero, then the code above will invoke 'goto out'
and skip this code.

When writing io, dm-crypt has to allocate a new cloned bio
and encrypt the data into newly-allocated pages attached to this bio.
In rare cases, because of hw restrictions (e.g. physical segment limit)
or memory pressure, sometimes more than one cloned bio has to be used,
each processing a different fragment of the original.
Currently there is one waitqueue which waits for one fragment to finish
and continues processing the next fragment.
But when using asynchronous crypto this doesn't work, because several
fragments may be processed asynchronously or in parallel and there is
only one crypt context that cannot be shared between the bio fragments.
The result may be corruption of the data contained in the encrypted bio.
The patch fixes this by allocating new dm_crypt_io structs (with new
crypto contexts) and running them independently.
The fragments contains a pointer to the base dm_crypt_io struct to
handle reference counting, so the base one is properly deallocated
after all the fragments are finished.
In a low memory situation, this only uses one additional object from the
mempool. If the mempool is empty, the next allocation simple waits for
previous fragments to complete.

Fix a race condition with primary_pe ref_count handling.
put_pending_exception runs under dm_snapshot->lock, it does atomic_dec_and_test
on primary_pe->ref_count, and later does atomic_read primary_pe->ref_count.
__origin_write does atomic_dec_and_test on primary_pe->ref_count without holding
dm_snapshot->lock.
This opens the following race condition:
Assume two CPUs, CPU1 is executing put_pending_exception (and holding
dm_snapshot->lock). CPU2 is executing __origin_write in parallel.
primary_pe->ref_count == 2.
CPU1:
if (primary_pe && atomic_dec_and_test(&primary_pe->ref_count))
origin_bios = bio_list_get(&primary_pe->origin_bios);
... decrements primary_pe->ref_count to 1. Doesn't load origin_bios
CPU2:
if (first && atomic_dec_and_test(&primary_pe->ref_count)) {
flush_bios(bio_list_get(&primary_pe->origin_bios));
free_pending_exception(primary_pe);
/* If we got here, pe_queue is necessarily empty. */
return r;
}
... decrements primary_pe->ref_count to 0, submits pending bios, frees
primary_pe.
CPU1:
if (!primary_pe || primary_pe != pe)
free_pending_exception(pe);
... this has no effect.
if (primary_pe && !atomic_read(&primary_pe->ref_count))
free_pending_exception(primary_pe);
... sees ref_count == 0 (written by CPU 2), does double free !!
This bug can happen only if someone is simultaneously writing to both the
origin and the snapshot.
If someone is writing only to the origin, __origin_write will submit kcopyd
request after it decrements primary_pe->ref_count (so it can't happen that the
finished copy races with primary_pe->ref_count decrementation).
If someone is writing only to the snapshot, __origin_write isn't invoked at all
and the race can't happen.
The race happens when someone writes to the snapshot --- this creates
pending_exception with primary_pe == NULL and starts copying. Then, someone
writes to the same chunk in the snapshot, and __origin_write races with
termination of already submitted request in pending_complete (that calls
put_pending_exception).
This race may be reason for bugs:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11636
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=465825
The patch fixes the code to make sure that:
1. If atomic_dec_and_test(&primary_pe->ref_count) returns false, the process
must no longer dereference primary_pe (because someone else may free it under
us).
2. If atomic_dec_and_test(&primary_pe->ref_count) returns true, the process
is responsible for freeing primary_pe.

Write throughput to LVM snapshot origin volume is an order
of magnitude slower than those to LV without snapshots or
snapshot target volumes, especially in the case of sequential
writes with O_SYNC on.
The following patch originally written by Kevin Jamieson and
Jan Blunck and slightly modified for the current RCs by myself
tries to improve the performance by modifying the behaviour
of kcopyd, so that it pushes back an I/O job to the head of
the job queue instead of the tail as process_jobs() currently
does when it has to wait for free pages. This way, write
requests aren't shuffled to cause extra seeks.
I tested the patch against 2.6.27-rc5 and got the following results.
The test is a dd command writing to snapshot origin followed by fsync
to the file just created/updated. A couple of filesystem benchmarks
gave me similar results in case of sequential writes, while random
writes didn't suffer much.
dd if=/dev/zero of=<somewhere on snapshot origin> bs=4096 count=...
[conv=notrunc when updating]
1) linux 2.6.27-rc5 without the patch, write to snapshot origin,
average throughput (MB/s)
10M 100M 1000M
create,dd 511.46 610.72 11.81
create,dd+fsync 7.10 6.77 8.13
update,dd 431.63 917.41 12.75
update,dd+fsync 7.79 7.43 8.12
compared with write throughput to LV without any snapshots,
all dd+fsync and 1000 MiB writes perform very poorly.
10M 100M 1000M
create,dd 555.03 608.98 123.29
create,dd+fsync 114.27 72.78 76.65
update,dd 152.34 1267.27 124.04
update,dd+fsync 130.56 77.81 77.84
2) linux 2.6.27-rc5 with the patch, write to snapshot origin,
average throughput (MB/s)
10M 100M 1000M
create,dd 537.06 589.44 46.21
create,dd+fsync 31.63 29.19 29.23
update,dd 487.59 897.65 37.76
update,dd+fsync 34.12 30.07 26.85
Although still not on par with plain LV performance -
cannot be avoided because it's copy on write anyway -
this simple patch successfully improves throughtput
of dd+fsync while not affecting the rest.

inode is never used on video_ioctl2. Remove it and rename the function to
__video_ioctl2. This allows its usage directly as a callback at
fops.unlocked_ioctl.
Since we still need a callback with inode to be used with fops.ioctl,
this patch adds video_ioctl2() that is just a call to __video_ioctl2().
Also, this patch adds some comments about video_ioctl2 and __video_ioctl2

The kernel number of a v4l2 node (e.g. videoX, radioX or vbiX) is now
independent of the minor number. So instead of using the minor field
of the video_device struct one has to use the num field: this always
contains the kernel number of the device node.
I forgot about this when I did the v4l2 core change, so this patch
converts all drivers that use it in one go. Luckily the change is
trivial.

the desired modulation
If we are already at the desired modulation, there is no need to reconfigure
the demod (at a tuning time cost)
Note that this change revealed that although the datasheet says the demod
starts out in VSB-8 mode, the first tuning was failing consistently unless
we went through the work of setting the registers. So add a field to denote
this case so we always do the enable_frontend call, even if the first tuning
request is for VSB-8.
