2009-03-03sh: Add support for SH7786 CPU subtype.Kuninori Morimoto
This adds preliminary support for the SH7786 CPU subtype. While this is a dual-core CPU, only UP is supported for now. L2 cache support is likewise not yet implemented. More information on this particular CPU subtype is available at: http://www.renesas.com/fmwk.jsp?cnt=sh7786_root.jsp&fp=/products/mpumcu/superh_family/sh7780_series/sh7786_group/ Signed-off-by: Kuninori Morimoto <morimoto.kuninori@renesas.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>

2009-02-27sh: multiple vectors per irq - baseMagnus Damm
Instead of keeping the single vector -> single linux irq mapping we extend the intc code to support merging of vectors to a single linux irq. This helps processors such as sh7750, sh7780 and sh7785 which have more vectors than masking ability. With this patch in place we can modify the intc tables to use one irq per maskable irq source. Please note the following: - If multiple vectors share the same enum then only the first vector will be available as a linux irq. - Drivers may need to be rewritten to get pending irq source from the hardware block instead of irq number. This patch together with the sh7785 specific intc tables solves DMA controller irq issues related to buggy interrupt masking.

This patch updates the maple bus to support asynchronous block reads and writes as well as generally improving the quality of the code and supporting concurrency (all needed to support the Dreamcast visual memory unit - a driver will also be posted for that). Changes in the bus driver necessitate some changes in the two maple bus input drivers that are currently in mainline. As well as supporting block reads and writes this code clean up removes some poor handling of locks, uses an atomic status variable to serialise access to devices and more robusly handles the general performance problems of the bus.

2009-02-11nbd: fix I/O hang on disconnected nbdsPaul Clements
Fix a problem that causes I/O to a disconnected (or partially initialized) nbd device to hang indefinitely. To reproduce: # ioctl NBD_SET_SIZE_BLOCKS /dev/nbd23 514048 # dd if=/dev/nbd23 of=/dev/null bs=4096 count=1 ...hangs... This can also occur when an nbd device loses its nbd-client/server connection. Although we clear the queue of any outstanding I/Os after the client/server connection fails, any additional I/Os that get queued later will hang. This bug may also be the problem reported in this bug report: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12277 Testing would need to be performed to determine if the two issues are the same. This problem was introduced by the new request handling thread code ("NBD: allow nbd to be used locally", 3/2008), which entered into mainline around 2.6.25. The fix, which is fairly simple, is to restore the check for lo->sock being NULL in do_nbd_request. This causes I/O to an uninitialized nbd to immediately fail with an I/O error, as it did prior to the introduction of this bug.

2009-02-11mm: rearrange exit_mmap() to unlock before arch_exit_mmapJeremy Fitzhardinge
Christophe Saout reported [in precursor to: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123209902707347&w=4]: > Note that I also some a different issue with CONFIG_UNEVICTABLE_LRU. > Seems like Xen tears down current->mm early on process termination, so > that __get_user_pages in exit_mmap causes nasty messages when the > process had any mlocked pages. (in fact, it somehow manages to get into > the swapping code and produces a null pointer dereference trying to get > a swap token) Jeremy explained: Yes. In the normal case under Xen, an in-use pagetable is "pinned", meaning that it is RO to the kernel, and all updates must go via hypercall (or writes are trapped and emulated, which is much the same thing). An unpinned pagetable is not currently in use by any process, and can be directly accessed as normal RW pages. As an optimisation at process exit time, we unpin the pagetable as early as possible (switching the process to init_mm), so that all the normal pagetable teardown can happen with direct memory accesses. This happens in exit_mmap() -> arch_exit_mmap(). The munlocking happens a few lines below. The obvious thing to do would be to move arch_exit_mmap() to below the munlock code, but I think we'd want to call it even if mm->mmap is NULL, just to be on the safe side. Thus, this patch: exit_mmap() needs to unlock any locked vmas before calling arch_exit_mmap, as the latter may switch the current mm to init_mm, which would cause the former to fail.

2009-02-11syscall define: fix uml compile bugHeiko Carstens
With the new system call defines we get this on uml: arch/um/sys-i386/built-in.o: In function `sys_call_table': (.rodata+0x308): undefined reference to `sys_sigprocmask' Reason for this is that uml passes the preprocessor option -Dsigprocmask=kernel_sigprocmask to gcc when compiling the kernel. This causes SYSCALL_DEFINE3(sigprocmask, ...) to be expanded to SYSCALL_DEFINEx(3, kernel_sigprocmask, ...) and finally to a system call named sys_kernel_sigprocmask. However sys_sigprocmask is missing because of this. To avoid macro expansion for the system call name just concatenate the name at first define instead of carrying it through severel levels.

2009-02-11ext2/xip: refuse to change xip flag during remount with busy inodesCarsten Otte
For a reason that I was unable to understand in three months of debugging, mount ext2 -o remount stopped working properly when remounting from regular operation to xip, or the other way around. According to a git bisect search, the problem was introduced with the VM_MIXEDMAP/PTE_SPECIAL rework in the vm: commit 70688e4dd1647f0ceb502bbd5964fa344c5eb411 Author: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Date: Mon Apr 28 02:13:02 2008 -0700 xip: support non-struct page backed memory In the failing scenario, the filesystem is mounted read only via root= kernel parameter on s390x. During remount (in rc.sysinit), the inodes of the bash binary and its libraries are busy and cannot be invalidated (the bash which is running rc.sysinit resides on subject filesystem). Afterwards, another bash process (running ifup-eth) recurses into a subshell, runs dup_mm (via fork). Some of the mappings in this bash process were created from inodes that could not be invalidated during remount. Both parent and child process crash some time later due to inconsistencies in their address spaces. The issue seems to be timing sensitive, various attempts to recreate it have failed. This patch refuses to change the xip flag during remount in case some inodes cannot be invalidated. This patch keeps users from running into that issue.

2009-02-11mm: fix mlocked page counter mismatchMinChan Kim
When I tested following program, I found that the mlocked counter is strange. It cannot free some mlocked pages. It is because try_to_unmap_file() doesn't check real page mappings in vmas. That is because the goal of an address_space for a file is to find all processes into which the file's specific interval is mapped. It is related to the file's interval, not to pages. Even if the page isn't really mapped by the vma, it returns SWAP_MLOCK since the vma has VM_LOCKED, then calls try_to_mlock_page. After this the mlocked counter is increased again. COWed anon page in a file-backed vma could be a such case.

2009-02-11ext3: revert "ext3: wait on all pending commits in ext3_sync_fs"Jan Kara
This reverts commit c87591b719737b4e91eb1a9fa8fd55a4ff1886d6. Since journal_start_commit() is now fixed to return 1 when we started a transaction commit, there's some transaction waiting to be committed or there's a transaction already committing, we don't need to call ext3_force_commit() in ext3_sync_fs(). Furthermore ext3_force_commit() can unnecessarily create sync transaction which is expensive so it's worthwhile to remove it when we can.

2009-02-11jbd: fix return value of journal_start_commit()Jan Kara
journal_start_commit() returns 1 if either a transaction is committing or the function has queued a transaction commit. But it returns 0 if we raced with somebody queueing the transaction commit as well. This resulted in ext3_sync_fs() not functioning correctly (description from Arthur Jones): In the case of a data=ordered umount with pending long symlinks which are delayed due to a long list of other I/O on the backing block device, this causes the buffer associated with the long symlinks to not be moved to the inode dirty list in the second phase of fsync_super. Then, before they can be dirtied again, kjournald exits, seeing the UMOUNT flag and the dirty pages are never written to the backing block device, causing long symlink corruption and exposing new or previously freed block data to userspace. This can be reproduced with a script created by Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com>: #!/bin/bash umount /mnt/test2 mount /dev/sdb4 /mnt/test2 rm -f /mnt/test2/* dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test2/bigfile bs=1M count=512 touch /mnt/test2/thisisveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryverylongfilename ln -s /mnt/test2/thisisveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryverylongfilename /mnt/test2/link umount /mnt/test2 mount /dev/sdb4 /mnt/test2 ls /mnt/test2/ This patch fixes journal_start_commit() to always return 1 when there's a transaction committing or queued for commit.

2009-02-11Do not account for hugetlbfs quota at mmap() time if mapping [SHM|MAP]_NORESERVEMel Gorman
Commit 5a6fe125950676015f5108fb71b2a67441755003 brought hugetlbfs more in line with the core VM by obeying VM_NORESERVE and not reserving hugepages for both shared and private mappings when [SHM|MAP]_NORESERVE are specified. However, it is still taking filesystem quota unconditionally. At fault time, if there are no reserves and attempt is made to allocate the page and account for filesystem quota. If either fail, the fault fails. The impact is that quota is getting accounted for twice. This patch partially reverts 5a6fe125950676015f5108fb71b2a67441755003. To help prevent this mistake happening again, it improves the documentation of hugetlb_reserve_pages() Reported-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Acked-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
