2013-07-02Merge tag 'cleanup-for-linus' of ↵Linus Torvalds
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc Pull ARM SoC cleanups from Arnd Bergmann: "This contains cleanups as preparation for other branches adding new features, we pulled 16 branches for 9 platforms into this one. Most notable here is the removal of support for ATAGS based OMAP4 systems. Since all OMAP4 machines are fully functional with DT based booting in 3.10, we can remove a lot of code here. Also noteworthy is Maxime Ripard's cleanup of the machine descriptors, which means we need no machine descriptors in a lot more cases and can boot additional machines by just having the respective device drivers enabled." * tag 'cleanup-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc: (76 commits) ARM: picoxcell: remove .nr_irqs reference ARM: s5p64x0: avoid build warning for uncompress.h ARM: SAMSUNG: Remove unused plat/regs-watchdog.h header ARM: SAMSUNG: Remove legacy watchdog reset code ARM: SAMSUNG: Let platforms use the new watchdog reset driver ARM: SAMSUNG: Add watchdog reset driver ARM: SAMSUNG: Use local definitions of watchdog registers watchdog: s3c2410_wdt: Use local register definitions ARM: S5P64X0: Use common uncompress.h part for plat-samsung ARM: SAMSUNG: Consolidate uncompress subroutine ARM: at91: drop rm9200dk board support ARM: dts: msm: Fix merge resolution ARM: OMAP1: Remove dma.h ARM: OMAP1: Remove legacy irda.h and irda setup from board files ARM: OMAP1: Remove duplicated DMA channel definitions ARM: OMAP1: Remove McBSP DMA channel definitions ARM: OMAP2+: Remove dma.h ARM: OMAP2+: hwmod: Remove remaining DMA channel definitions ARM: OMAP2+: Remove duplicated DMA channel definitions ARM: OMAP2+: Remove AES crypto device DMA channel definitions ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4 Pull ext4 update from Ted Ts'o: "Lots of bug fixes, cleanups and optimizations. In the bug fixes category, of note is a fix for on-line resizing file systems where the block size is smaller than the page size (i.e., file systems 1k blocks on x86, or more interestingly file systems with 4k blocks on Power or ia64 systems.) In the cleanup category, the ext4's punch hole implementation was significantly improved by Lukas Czerner, and now supports bigalloc file systems. In addition, Jan Kara significantly cleaned up the write submission code path. We also improved error checking and added a few sanity checks. In the optimizations category, two major optimizations deserve mention. The first is that ext4_writepages() is now used for nodelalloc and ext3 compatibility mode. This allows writes to be submitted much more efficiently as a single bio request, instead of being sent as individual 4k writes into the block layer (which then relied on the elevator code to coalesce the requests in the block queue). Secondly, the extent cache shrink mechanism, which was introduce in 3.9, no longer has a scalability bottleneck caused by the i_es_lru spinlock. Other optimizations include some changes to reduce CPU usage and to avoid issuing empty commits unnecessarily." * tag 'ext4_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4: (86 commits) ext4: optimize starting extent in ext4_ext_rm_leaf() jbd2: invalidate handle if jbd2_journal_restart() fails ext4: translate flag bits to strings in tracepoints ext4: fix up error handling for mpage_map_and_submit_extent() jbd2: fix theoretical race in jbd2__journal_restart ext4: only zero partial blocks in ext4_zero_partial_blocks() ext4: check error return from ext4_write_inline_data_end() ext4: delete unnecessary C statements ext3,ext4: don't mess with dir_file->f_pos in htree_dirblock_to_tree() jbd2: move superblock checksum calculation to jbd2_write_superblock() ext4: pass inode pointer instead of file pointer to punch hole ext4: improve free space calculation for inline_data ext4: reduce object size when !CONFIG_PRINTK ext4: improve extent cache shrink mechanism to avoid to burn CPU time ext4: implement error handling of ext4_mb_new_preallocation() ext4: fix corruption when online resizing a fs with 1K block size ext4: delete unused variables ext4: return FIEMAP_EXTENT_UNKNOWN for delalloc extents jbd2: remove debug dependency on debug_fs and update Kconfig help text jbd2: use a single printk for jbd_debug() ...

2013-07-01lib: vsprintf: add IPv4/v6 generic %p[Ii]S[pfs] format specifierDaniel Borkmann
In order to avoid making code that deals with printing both, IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, unnecessary complicated as for example ... if (sa.sa_family == AF_INET6) printk("... %pI6 ...", ..sin6_addr); else printk("... %pI4 ...", ..sin_addr.s_addr); ... it would be better to introduce a format specifier that can deal with those kind of situations internally; just as we have a "struct sockaddr" for generic mapping into "struct sockaddr_in" or "struct sockaddr_in6" as e.g. done in "union sctp_addr". Then, we could reduce the above statement into something like: printk("... %pIS ..", &sockaddr); In case our pointer is NULL, pointer() then deals with that already at an earlier point in time internally. While we're at it, support for both %piS/%pIS, where 'S' stands for sockaddr, comes (almost) for free. Additionally to that, postfix specifiers 'p', 'f' and 's' are supported as suggested and initially implemented in 2009 by Joe Perches [1]. Handling of those additional specifiers orientate on the initial RFC that was proposed. Also we support IPv6 compressed format specified by 'c' and various other IPv4 extensions as stated in the documentation part. Likely, there are many other areas than just SCTP in the kernel to make use of this extension as well.

The OLPC XO-1.75 and XO-4 laptops include a PS/2 touchpad and an AT keyboard, yet they do not have a hardware PS/2 controller. Instead, a firmware runs on a dedicated core ("Security Processor", part of the SoC) that acts as a PS/2 controller through bit-banging. Communication between the main cpu (Application Processor) and the Security Processor happens via a standard command mechanism implemented by the SoC. Add a driver for this interface to enable keyboard/mouse input on this platform.

EBBs are a feature which allows the hardware to branch directly to a specified user space address when a PMU event overflows. This can be used by programs for self-monitoring with no kernel involvement in the inner loop. Most of the logic is in the generic book3s code, primarily to avoid a proliferation of PMU callbacks.

2013-06-29locks: give the blocked_hash its own spinlockJeff Layton
There's no reason we have to protect the blocked_hash and file_lock_list with the same spinlock.

2013-06-29locks: add a new "lm_owner_key" lock operationJeff Layton
Currently, the hashing that the locking code uses to add these values to the blocked_hash is simply calculated using fl_owner field. That's valid in most cases except for server-side lockd, which validates the owner of a lock based on fl_owner and fl_pid. In the case where you have a small number of NFS clients doing a lot of locking between different processes, you could end up with all the blocked requests sitting in a very small number of hash buckets. Add a new lm_owner_key operation to the lock_manager_operations that will generate an unsigned long to use as the key in the hashtable. That function is only implemented for server-side lockd, and simply XORs the fl_owner and fl_pid. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Acked-by: J.

2013-06-29locks: protect most of the file_lock handling with i_lockJeff Layton
Having a global lock that protects all of this code is a clear scalability problem. Instead of doing that, move most of the code to be protected by the i_lock instead. The exceptions are the global lists that the ->fl_link sits on, and the ->fl_block list. ->fl_link is what connects these structures to the global lists, so we must ensure that we hold those locks when iterating over or updating these lists. Furthermore, sound deadlock detection requires that we hold the blocked_list state steady while checking for loops. We also must ensure that the search and update to the list are atomic. For the checking and insertion side of the blocked_list, push the acquisition of the global lock into __posix_lock_file and ensure that checking and update of the blocked_list is done without dropping the lock in between. On the removal side, when waking up blocked lock waiters, take the global lock before walking the blocked list and dequeue the waiters from the global list prior to removal from the fl_block list. With this, deadlock detection should be race free while we minimize excessive file_lock_lock thrashing. Finally, in order to avoid a lock inversion problem when handling /proc/locks output we must ensure that manipulations of the fl_block list are also protected by the file_lock_lock.

2013-06-29Don't pass inode to ->d_hash() and ->d_compare()Linus Torvalds
Instances either don't look at it at all (the majority of cases) or only want it to find the superblock (which can be had as dentry->d_sb). A few cases that want more are actually safe with dentry->d_inode - the only precaution needed is the check that it hadn't been replaced with NULL by rmdir() or by overwriting rename(), which case should be simply treated as cache miss.

2013-06-28[media] exynos4-is: Add support for Exynos5250 MIPI-CSISSylwester Nawrocki
Add compatible property for the Exynos5250 and enable the frame start and frame end interrupts. These interrupts are needed for the Exynos5 FIMC-IS firmware. The driver enables those interrupt only where available, depending on the 'compatible' property. This can be optimized further, by exposing some API at the subdev driver, so the host driver can enable extra interrupts only for the image processing chains involving FIMC-IS.

2013-06-28[media] exynos4-is: Add Exynos5250 SoC support to fimc-lite driverSylwester Nawrocki
This patch adds support for the Exynos5250 SoC variant of the FIMC-LITE IP. A 'compatible' string is added for Exynos5250 compatible devices and the capture DMA handling is reworked to use the FLITE_REG_CIFCNTSEQ register, masking output DMA buffer address slots. The frame interrupt is enabled so there are now 2 interrupts per frame. This likely can be optimized in future by using any status registers that allow to figure out what the last and the currently written frame buffer is. It would also be more reliable in cases where there are high interrupt service latencies.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen into for-3.11/drivers Konrad writes: It has the 'feature-max-indirect-segments' implemented in both backend and frontend. The current problem with the backend and frontend is that the segment size is limited to 11 pages. It means we can at most squeeze in 44kB per request. The ring can hold 32 (next power of two below 36) requests, meaning we can do 1.4M of outstanding requests. Nowadays that is not enough. The problem in the past was addressed in two ways - but neither one went upstream. The first solution to this proposed by Justin from Spectralogic was to negotiate the segment size. This means that the ‘struct blkif_sring_entry’ is now a variable size. It can expand from 112 bytes (cover 11 pages of data - 44kB) to 1580 bytes (256 pages of data - so 1MB). It is a simple extension by just making the array in the request expand from 11 to a variable size negotiated. But it had limits: this extension still limits the number of segments per request to 255 (as the total number must be specified in the request, which only has an 8-bit field for that purpose). The other solution (from Intel - Ronghui) was to create one extra ring that only has the ‘struct blkif_request_segment’ in them. The ‘struct blkif_request’ would be changed to have an index in said ‘segment ring’. There is only one segment ring. This means that the size of the initial ring is still the same. The requests would point to the segment and enumerate out how many of the indexes it wants to use. The limit is of course the size of the segment. If one assumes a one-page segment this means we can in one request cover ~4MB. Those patches were posted as RFC and the author never followed up on the ideas on changing it to be a bit more flexible. There is yet another mechanism that could be employed  (which these patches implement) - and it borrows from VirtIO protocol. And that is the ‘indirect descriptors’. This very similar to what Intel suggests, but with a twist. The twist is to negotiate how many of these 'segment' pages (aka indirect descriptor pages) we want to support (in reality we negotiate how many entries in the segment we want to cover, and we module the number if it is bigger than the segment size). This means that with the existing 36 slots in the ring (single page) we can cover: 32 slots * each blkif_request_indirect covers: 512 * 4096 ~= 64M. Since we ample space in the blkif_request_indirect to span more than one indirect page, that number (64M) can be also multiplied by eight = 512MB. Roger Pau Monne took the idea and implemented them in these patches. They work great and the corner cases (migration between backends with and without this extension) work nicely. The backend has a limit right now off how many indirect entries it can handle: one indirect page, and at maximum 256 entries (out of 512 - so 50% of the page is used). That comes out to 32 slots * 256 entries in a indirect page * 1 indirect page per request * 4096 = 32MB. This is a conservative number that can change in the future. Right now it strikes a good balance between giving excellent performance, memory usage in the backend, and balancing the needs of many guests. In the patchset there is also the split of the blkback structure to be per-VBD. This means that the spinlock contention we had with many guests trying to do I/O and all the blkback threads hitting the same lock has been eliminated. Also there are bug-fixes to deal with oddly sized sectors, insane amounts on th ring, and also a security fix (posted earlier).
