2009-07-02[ARM] 5581/1: U300 clock updatesLinus Walleij
This adds a few default locks to the clocks (the clocks were used before the locks were initialized by code), then renames the clocks a bit to fit with the latest driver names (some changed during review). Lastly it moves the initialization of the clock debugfs entry to module_init() initcall level since the debugfs isn't up in core_initcall().

2009-07-01Fix iommu address space allocationDavid Woodhouse
This fixes kernel.org bug #13584. The IOVA code attempted to optimise the insertion of new ranges into the rbtree, with the unfortunate result that some ranges just didn't get inserted into the tree at all. Then those ranges would be handed out more than once, and things kind of go downhill from there. Introduced after 2.6.25 by ddf02886cbe665d67ca750750196ea5bf524b10b ("PCI: iova RB tree setup tweak").

2009-07-01Fix pci_unmap_addr() et al on i386.David Woodhouse
We can run a 32-bit kernel on boxes with an IOMMU, so we need pci_unmap_addr() etc. to work -- without it, drivers will leak mappings. To be honest, this whole thing looks like it's more pain than it's worth; I'm half inclined to remove the no-op #else case altogether. But this is the minimal fix, which just does the right thing if CONFIG_DMAR is set.

2009-07-01blocK: Restore barrier support for md and probably other virtual devices.NeilBrown
The next_ordered flag is only meaningful for devices that use __make_request. So move the test against next_ordered out of generic code and in to __make_request Since this test was added, barriers have not worked on md or any devices that don't use __make_request and so don't bother to set next_ordered. (dm explicitly sets something other than QUEUE_ORDERED_NONE since commit 99360b4c18f7675b50d283301d46d755affe75fd but notes in the comments that it is otherwise meaningless).

2009-07-01block: Create bip slabs with embedded integrity vectorsMartin K. Petersen
This patch restores stacking ability to the block layer integrity infrastructure by creating a set of dedicated bip slabs. Each bip slab has an embedded bio_vec array at the end. This cuts down on memory allocations and also simplifies the code compared to the original bvec version. Only the largest bip slab is backed by a mempool. The pool is contained in the bio_set so stacking drivers can ensure forward progress. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@carl.(none)>
2009-07-01cfq-iosched: get rid of the need for __GFP_NOFAIL in cfq_find_alloc_queue()Jens Axboe
Setup an emergency fallback cfqq that we allocate at IO scheduler init time. If the slab allocation fails in cfq_find_alloc_queue(), we'll just punt IO to that cfqq instead. This ensures that cfq_find_alloc_queue() never fails without having to ensure free memory. On cfqq lookup, always try to allocate a new cfqq if the given cfq io context has the oom_cfqq assigned. This ensures that we only temporarily punt to this shared queue. Reviewed-by: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2009-07-01cfq-iosched: move cfqq initialization out of cfq_find_alloc_queue()Jens Axboe

2009-07-01md: use interruptible wait when duration is controlled by userspace.NeilBrown
User space can set various limits on an md array so that resync waits when it gets to a certain point, or so that I/O is blocked for a short while. When md is waiting against one of these limit, it should use an interruptible wait so as not to add to the load average, and so are not to trigger a warning if the wait goes on for too long. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2009-07-01md/raid5: suspend shouldn't affect read requests.NeilBrown
md allows write to regions on an array to be suspended temporarily. This allows user-space to participate is aspects of reshape. In particular, data can be copied with not risk of a race. We should not be blocking read requests though, so don't. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2009-06-30Revert "ipv4: arp announce, arp_proxy and windows ip conflict verification"Eric W. Biederman
This reverts commit 73ce7b01b4496a5fbf9caf63033c874be692333f. After discovering that we don't listen to gratuitious arps in 2.6.30 I tracked the failure down to this commit. The patch makes absolutely no sense. RFC2131 RFC3927 and RFC5227. are all in agreement that an arp request with sip == 0 should be used for the probe (to prevent learning) and an arp request with sip == tip should be used for the gratitous announcement that people can learn from. It appears the author of the broken patch got those two cases confused and modified the code to drop all gratuitous arp traffic. Ouch! Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Eric W.

As the recent bug in md_alloc showed, having a single exit path for unlocking and putting is a good idea. So restructure md_alloc to have a single mutex_unlock and mddev_put, and use gotos where necessary. Found-by: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2009-07-01md: fix error path when duplicate name is found on md device creation.NeilBrown
When an md device is created by name (rather than number) we need to check that the name is not already in use. If this check finds a duplicate, we return an error without dropping the lock or freeing the newly create mddev. This patch fixes that.
