2012-09-25SUNRPC: Set alloc_slot for backchannel tcp opsBryan Schumaker
f39c1bfb5a03e2d255451bff05be0d7255298fa4 (SUNRPC: Fix a UDP transport regression) introduced the "alloc_slot" function for xprt operations, but never created one for the backchannel operations.

2012-09-19cpufreq/powernow-k8: workqueue user shouldn't migrate the kworker to another CPUTejun Heo
powernowk8_target() runs off a per-cpu work item and if the cpufreq_policy->cpu is different from the current one, it migrates the kworker to the target CPU by manipulating current->cpus_allowed. The function migrates the kworker back to the original CPU but this is still broken. Workqueue concurrency management requires the kworkers to stay on the same CPU and powernowk8_target() ends up triggerring BUG_ON(rq != this_rq()) in try_to_wake_up_local() if it contends on fidvid_mutex and sleeps. It is unclear why this bug is being reported now. Duncan says it appeared to be a regression of 3.6-rc1 and couldn't reproduce it on 3.5. Bisection seemed to point to 63d95a91 "workqueue: use @pool instead of @gcwq or @cpu where applicable" which is an non-functional change. Given that the reproduce case sometimes took upto days to trigger, it's easy to be misled while bisecting. Maybe something made contention on fidvid_mutex more likely? I don't know. This patch fixes the bug by using work_on_cpu() instead if @pol->cpu isn't the same as the current one. The code assumes that cpufreq_policy->cpu is kept online by the caller, which Rafael tells me is the case. stable: ed48ece27c ("workqueue: reimplement work_on_cpu() using system_wq") should be applied before this; otherwise, the behavior could be horrible.

2012-09-19workqueue: reimplement work_on_cpu() using system_wqTejun Heo
The existing work_on_cpu() implementation is hugely inefficient. It creates a new kthread, execute that single function and then let the kthread die on each invocation. Now that system_wq can handle concurrent executions, there's no advantage of doing this. Reimplement work_on_cpu() using system_wq which makes it simpler and way more efficient. stable: While this isn't a fix in itself, it's needed to fix a workqueue related bug in cpufreq/powernow-k8. AFAICS, this shouldn't break other existing users.

2012-09-19md: make sure metadata is updated when spares are activated or removed.NeilBrown
It isn't always necessary to update the metadata when spares are removed as the presence-or-not of a spare isn't really important to the integrity of an array. Also activating a spare doesn't always require updating the metadata as the update on 'recovery-completed' is usually sufficient. However the introduction of 'replacement' devices have made these transitions sometimes more important. For example the 'Replacement' flag isn't cleared until the original device is removed, so we need to ensure a metadata update after that 'spare' is removed. So set MD_CHANGE_DEVS whenever a spare is activated or removed, to complement the current situation where it is set when a spare is added or a device is failed (or a number of other less common situations). This is suitable for -stable as out-of-data metadata could lead to data corruption. This is only relevant for 3.3 and later 9when 'replacement' as introduced.

2012-09-19md/raid5: fix calculate of 'degraded' when a replacement becomes active.NeilBrown
When a replacement device becomes active, we mark the device that it replaces as 'faulty' so that it can subsequently get removed. However 'calc_degraded' only pays attention to the primary device, not the replacement, so the array appears to become degraded, which is wrong. So teach 'calc_degraded' to consider any replacement if a primary device is faulty. This is suitable for -stable as an incorrect 'degraded' value can confuse md and could lead to data corruption. This is only relevant for 3.3 and later.

Large sequential O_DIRECT writes were faster, Small random O_DIRECT writes were slower. Other changes (batching RAID5 writes) have improved the sequential writes using a different mechanism, so the net result of this patch is definitely negative. So revert it.

2012-09-18vfs: dcache: use DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED instead of DCACHE_DISCONNECTED in d_kill()Miklos Szeredi
IBM reported a soft lockup after applying the fix for the rename_lock deadlock. Commit c83ce989cb5f ("VFS: Fix the nfs sillyrename regression in kernel 2.6.38") was found to be the culprit. The nfs sillyrename fix used DCACHE_DISCONNECTED to indicate that the dentry was killed. This flag can be set on non-killed dentries too, which results in infinite retries when trying to traverse the dentry tree. This patch introduces a separate flag: DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED, which is only set in d_kill() and makes try_to_ascend() test only this flag. IBM reported successful test results with this patch.

If a command completes with a status of CMD_PROTOCOL_ERR, this information should be conveyed to the SCSI mid layer, not dropped on the floor. Unlike a similar bug in the hpsa driver, this bug only affects tape drives and CD and DVD ROM drives in the cciss driver, and to induce it, you have to disconnect (or damage) a cable, so it is not a very likely scenario (which would explain why the bug has gone undetected for the last 10 years.)

busy_worker_rebind_fn() didn't clear WORKER_REBIND if rebinding failed (CPU is down again). This used to be okay because the flag wasn't used for anything else. However, after 25511a477 "workqueue: reimplement CPU online rebinding to handle idle workers", WORKER_REBIND is also used to command idle workers to rebind. If not cleared, the worker may confuse the next CPU_UP cycle by having REBIND spuriously set or oops / get stuck by prematurely calling idle_worker_rebind().

But the page address of higher page's buddy was wrongly calculated, which will lead page_is_buddy to fail for ever.

2012-09-17drivers/rtc/rtc-twl.c: ensure all interrupts are disabled during probeKevin Hilman
On some platforms, bootloaders are known to do some interesting RTC programming. Without going into the obscurities as to why this may be the case, suffice it to say the the driver should not make any assumptions about the state of the RTC when the driver loads. In particular, the driver probe should be sure that all interrupts are disabled until otherwise programmed. This was discovered when finding bursty I2C traffic every second on Overo platforms. This I2C overhead was keeping the SoC from hitting deep power states. The cause was found to be the RTC firing every second on the I2C-connected TWL PMIC. Special thanks to Felipe Balbi for suggesting to look for a rogue driver as the source of the I2C traffic rather than the I2C driver itself. Special thanks to Steve Sakoman for helping track down the source of the continuous RTC interrups on the Overo boards.

The crash happens because the next pid is -1, and alloc_pidmap() will try to access to a nonexistent pidmap. map = &pid_ns->pidmap[pid/BITS_PER_PAGE]; Signed-off-by: Andrew Vagin <avagin@openvz.org> Acked-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@openvz.org> Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Eric W.

Commit c76562b6709f ("netvm: prevent a stream-specific deadlock") accidentally replaced the "size" parameter of sk_rmem_schedule() with an unsigned int. This changes the semantics of the comparison in the return statement. In sk_wmem_schedule we have syntactically the same comparison, but "size" is a signed integer. In addition, __sk_mem_schedule() takes a signed integer for its "size" parameter, so there is an implicit type conversion in sk_rmem_schedule() anyway. Revert the "size" parameter back to a signed integer so that the semantics of the expressions in both sk_[rw]mem_schedule() are exactly the same.

2012-09-17slub: consider pfmemalloc_match() in get_partial_node()Joonsoo Kim
get_partial() is currently not checking pfmemalloc_match() meaning that it is possible for pfmemalloc pages to leak to non-pfmemalloc users. This is a problem in the following situation. Assume that there is a request from normal allocation and there are no objects in the per-cpu cache and no node-partial slab. In this case, slab_alloc enters the slow path and new_slab_objects() is called which may return a PFMEMALLOC page. As the current user is not allowed to access PFMEMALLOC page, deactivate_slab() is called ([5091b74a: mm: slub: optimise the SLUB fast path to avoid pfmemalloc checks]) and returns an object from PFMEMALLOC page. Next time, when we get another request from normal allocation, slab_alloc() enters the slow-path and calls new_slab_objects(). In new_slab_objects(), we call get_partial() and get a partial slab which was just deactivated but is a pfmemalloc page. We extract one object from it and re-deactivate. "deactivate -> re-get in get_partial -> re-deactivate" occures repeatedly. As a result, access to PFMEMALLOC page is not properly restricted and it can cause a performance degradation due to frequent deactivation. deactivation frequently. This patch changes get_partial_node() to take pfmemalloc_match() into account and prevents the "deactivate -> re-get in get_partial() scenario. Instead, new_slab() is called.

2012-09-17slab: do ClearSlabPfmemalloc() for all pages of slabMel Gorman
Right now, we call ClearSlabPfmemalloc() for first page of slab when we clear SlabPfmemalloc flag. This is fine for most swap-over-network use cases as it is expected that order-0 pages are in use. Unfortunately it is possible that that __ac_put_obj() checks SlabPfmemalloc on a tail page and while this is harmless, it is sloppy. This patch ensures that the head page is always used.

2012-09-17nbd: clear waiting_queue on shutdownPaul Clements
Fix a serious but uncommon bug in nbd which occurs when there is heavy I/O going to the nbd device while, at the same time, a failure (server, network) or manual disconnect of the nbd connection occurs. There is a small window between the time that the nbd_thread is stopped and the socket is shutdown where requests can continue to be queued to nbd's internal waiting_queue. When this happens, those requests are never completed or freed. The fix is to clear the waiting_queue on shutdown of the nbd device, in the same way that the nbd request queue (queue_head) is already being cleared.

2012-09-17mm/ia64: fix a memory block size bugJianguo Wu
I found following definition in include/linux/memory.h, in my IA64 platform, SECTION_SIZE_BITS is equal to 32, and MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE will be 0. #define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE (1 << SECTION_SIZE_BITS) Because MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE is int type and length of 32bits, so MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE(1 << 32) will will equal to 0. Actually when SECTION_SIZE_BITS >= 31, MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE will be wrong. This will cause wrong system memory infomation in sysfs. I think it should be: #define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE (1UL << SECTION_SIZE_BITS) And "echo offline > memory0/state" will cause following call trace: kernel BUG at mm/memory_hotplug.c:885! sh[6455]: bugcheck! 0 [1] Pid: 6455, CPU 0, comm: sh psr : 0000101008526030 ifs : 8000000000000fa4 ip : [<a0000001008c40f0>] Not tainted (3.6.0-rc1) ip is at offline_pages+0x210/0xee0 Call Trace: show_stack+0x80/0xa0 show_regs+0x640/0x920 die+0x190/0x2c0 die_if_kernel+0x50/0x80 ia64_bad_break+0x3d0/0x6e0 ia64_native_leave_kernel+0x0/0x270 offline_pages+0x210/0xee0 alloc_pages_current+0x180/0x2a0 Signed-off-by: Jianguo Wu <wujianguo@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Jiang Liu <jiang.liu@huawei.com> Cc: "Luck, Tony" <tony.luck@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2012-09-17fs/proc: fix potential unregister_sysctl_table hangFrancesco Ruggeri
The unregister_sysctl_table() function hangs if all references to its ctl_table_header structure are not dropped. This can happen sometimes because of a leak in proc_sys_lookup(): proc_sys_lookup() gets a reference to the table via lookup_entry(), but it does not release it when a subsequent call to sysctl_follow_link() fails. This patch fixes this leak by making sure the reference is always dropped on return. See also commit 076c3eed2c31 ("sysctl: Rewrite proc_sys_lookup introducing find_entry and lookup_entry") which reorganized this code in 3.4. Tested in Linux 3.4.4.

2012-09-16Revert "sched: Improve scalability via 'CPU buddies', which withstand random ↵Linus Torvalds
perturbations" This reverts commit 970e178985cadbca660feb02f4d2ee3a09f7fdda. Nikolay Ulyanitsky reported thatthe 3.6-rc5 kernel has a 15-20% performance drop on PostgreSQL 9.2 on his machine (running "pgbench"). Borislav Petkov was able to reproduce this, and bisected it to this commit 970e178985ca ("sched: Improve scalability via 'CPU buddies' ...") apparently because the new single-idle-buddy model simply doesn't find idle CPU's to reschedule on aggressively enough. Mike Galbraith suspects that it is likely due to the user-mode spinlocks in PostgreSQL not reacting well to preemption, but we don't really know the details - I'll just revert the commit for now. There are hopefully other approaches to improve scheduler scalability without it causing these kinds of downsides.

2012-09-15mfd: core: Push irqdomain mapping out into devicesMark Brown
Currently the MFD core supports remapping MFD cell interrupts using an irqdomain but only if the MFD is being instantiated using device tree and only if the device tree bindings use the pattern of registering IPs in the device tree with compatible properties. This will be actively harmful for drivers which support non-DT platforms and use this pattern for their DT bindings as it will mean that the core will silently change remapping behaviour and it is also limiting for drivers which don't do DT with this particular pattern. There is also a potential fragility if there are interrupts not associated with MFD cells and all the cells are omitted from the device tree for some reason. Instead change the code to take an IRQ domain as an optional argument, allowing drivers to take the decision about the parent domain for their interrupts. The one current user of this feature is ab8500-core, it has the domain lookup pushed out into the driver.
