2009-03-26ext3: Avoid starting a transaction in writepage when not necessaryJan Kara
We don't have to start a transaction in writepage() when all the blocks are a properly allocated. Even in ordered mode either the data has been written via write() and they are thus already added to transaction's list or the data was written via mmap and then it's random in which transaction they get written anyway. This should help VM to pageout dirty memory without blocking on transaction commits. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2009-03-26writeback: double the dirty thresholdsWu Fengguang
Enlarge default dirty ratios from 5/10 to 10/20. This fixes [Bug #12809] iozone regression with 2.6.29-rc6. The iozone benchmarks are performed on a 1200M file, with 8GB ram. iozone -i 0 -i 1 -i 2 -i 3 -i 4 -r 4k -s 64k -s 512m -s 1200m -b tmp.xls iozone -B -r 4k -s 64k -s 512m -s 1200m -b tmp.xls The performance regression is triggered by commit 1cf6e7d83bf3(mm: task dirty accounting fix), which makes more correct/thorough dirty accounting. The default 5/10 dirty ratios were picked (a) with the old dirty logic and (b) largely at random and (c) designed to be aggressive. In particular, that (a) means that having fixed some of the dirty accounting, maybe the real bug is now that it was always too aggressive, just hidden by an accounting issue. The enlarged 10/20 dirty ratios are just about enough to fix the regression.

2009-03-26[S390] cpumask: use mm_cpumask() wrapperRusty Russell
Makes code futureproof against the impending change to mm->cpu_vm_mask. It's also a chance to use the new cpumask_ ops which take a pointer (the older ones are deprecated, but there's no hurry for arch code).

2009-03-26[S390] cpumask: Use accessors code.Rusty Russell

2009-03-26[S390] cpumask: prepare for iterators to only go to nr_cpu_ids/nr_cpumask_bits.Rusty Russell
Impact: cleanup, futureproof In fact, all cpumask ops will only be valid (in general) for bit numbers < nr_cpu_ids. So use that instead of NR_CPUS in various places (I also updated the immediate sites to use the new cpumask_ operators). This is always safe: no cpu number can be >= nr_cpu_ids, and nr_cpu_ids is initialized to NR_CPUS at boot.

2009-03-26[S390] fix clock comparator save area usageHeiko Carstens
The lowcore clock comparator save area on 64 bit machines is defined to contain only the seven most significant bits of the register. That's also why it starts at an uneven address (0x1331). The current code however writes eight bytes to the address and therefore overwrites the first byte of the access register save area. Fix this and write only seven bytes to the save area.

2009-03-26[S390] Add hwcap flag for the etf3 enhancement facilityAndreas Krebbel
The Extended Translation Facility 3 (ETF3) added instructions which allow conversions between different unicode character maps (UTF-8, UTF-32 ...). These instructions got enhanced with a later version of the ETF3 allowing malformed multibyte chars to be recognized and reported correctly. The attached patch reserves bit 8 in the elf hwcaps vector for the enhanced version of ETF3. The bit corresponds to the stfle bits 22 and 30 and will only be set if both of the stfle bits are set.

2009-03-26[S390] Ensure that ipl panic notifier is called late.Michael Holzheu
The s390 ipl panic notifier will stop the system or trigger a system dump. This should be done as final action on the panic path. All other panic notifiers should be executed before. Currently we use priority 0 for the ipl notifier. In order to be called late, this patch changes the priority to INT_MIN which is the lowest possible priority.

2009-03-26[S390] fix dfp elf hwcap/facility bit detectionChristian Ehrhardt
The old dfp detection wanted to check bit 43 (dfp high performance), but due to a wrong calculation always used to check bit 42. Additionally the "userspace expectation" is, that the dfp capability bit is set is if facility bit 42 (decimal floating point facility available) and bit 44 (perform floating point operation facility avail). The patch fixes the bit calculation and extends the check to work like: elf hw cap dfp bit = facility bits 42 (dfp) & 44 (pfpo) available Signed-off-by: Christian Ehrhardt <ehrhardt@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
