2009-09-30pty: reconnect the BSD TIOCSPTLCK handling to legacy ptysLinus Torvalds
David Howells noticed (due to the compiler warning about an unused 'pty_ops_bsd' variable) that we haven't actually been using the code that implements TIOCSPTLCK for legacy pty handling. It's been that way since 2.6.26, commit 3e8e88ca053150efdbecb45d8f481cf560ec808d to be exact ("pty: prepare for tty->ops changes"). DavidH initially submitted a patch just removing the dead code entirely, and since nobody has apparently ever complained, I'm not entirely sure that wouldn't be the right thing to do. But since the whole and only point of the legacy pty code is to be compatible with legacy distros that don't use the new unix98 pty model, let's just wire it up again. And clean it up a bit while we're at it. Acked-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2009-09-29percpu: make allocation failures more verboseTejun Heo
Warn and dump stack when percpu allocation fails. percpu allocator is still young and unchecked NULL percpu pointer usage can result in random memory corruption when combined with the pointer shifting in access macros. Allocation failures should be rare and the warning message will be disabled after certain times. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2009-09-29percpu: make pcpu_setup_first_chunk() failures more verboseTejun Heo
The parameters to pcpu_setup_first_chunk() come from different sources depending on architecture and can be quite complex. The function runs various sanity checks on the parameters and triggers BUG() if something isn't right. However, this is very early during the boot and not reporting exactly what the problem is makes debugging even harder. Add PCPU_SETUP_BUG() macro which prints out enough information about the parameters. As the macro still puts separate BUG() for each check, it won't lose any information even on the situations where only the program counter can be retrieved. While at it, also bump pcpu_dump_alloc_info() message to KERN_INFO so that it's visible on the console if boot fails to complete. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2009-09-29percpu: make embedding first chunk allocator check vmalloc space sizeTejun Heo
Embedding first chunk allocator maintains the distances between units in the vmalloc area and thus needs vmalloc space to be larger than the maximum distances between units; otherwise, it wouldn't be able to create any dynamic chunks. This patch makes the embedding first chunk allocator check vmalloc space size and if the maximum distance between units is larger than 75% of it, print warning and, if page mapping allocator is available, fail initialization so that the system falls back onto it. This should work around percpu allocation failure problems on certain sparc64 configurations where distances between NUMA nodes are larger than the vmalloc area and makes percpu allocator more robust for future configurations. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2009-09-29sparc64: implement page mapping percpu first chunk allocatorTejun Heo
Implement page mapping percpu first chunk allocator as a fallback to the embedding allocator. The next patch will make the embedding allocator check distances between units to determine whether it fits within the vmalloc area so that this fallback can be used on such cases. sparc64 currently has relatively small vmalloc area which makes it impossible to create any dynamic chunks on certain configurations leading to percpu allocation failures. This and the next patch should allow those configurations to keep working until proper solution is found. While at it, mark pcpu_cpu_distance() with __init.

2009-09-29percpu: make pcpu_build_alloc_info() clear static buffersTejun Heo

2009-09-29percpu: fix unit_map[] verification in pcpu_setup_first_chunk()Tejun Heo
pcpu_setup_first_chunk() incorrectly used NR_CPUS as the impossible unit number while unit number can equal and go over NR_CPUS with sparse unit map. This triggers BUG_ON() spuriously on machines which have non-power-of-two number of cpus. Use UINT_MAX instead.

2009-09-27tty: Fix regressions caused by commit b50989dcDave Young
The following commit made console open fails while booting: commit b50989dc444599c8b21edc23536fc305f4e9b7d5 Author: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Date: Sat Sep 19 13:13:22 2009 -0700 tty: make the kref destructor occur asynchronously Due to tty release routines run in a workqueue now, error like the following will be reported while booting: INIT open /dev/console Input/output error It also causes hibernation regression to appear as reported at http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14229 The reason is that now there's latency issue with closing, but when we open a "closing not finished" tty, -EIO will be returned. Fix it as per the following Alan's suggestion: Fun but it's actually not a bug and the fix is wrong in itself as the port may be closing but not yet being destructed, in which case it seems to do the wrong thing. Opening a tty that is closing (and could be closing for long periods) is supposed to return -EIO. I suspect a better way to deal with this and keep the old console timing is to split tty->shutdown into two functions. tty->shutdown() - called synchronously just before we dump the tty onto the waitqueue for destruction tty->cleanup() - called when the destructor runs. We would then do the shutdown part which can occur in IRQ context fine, before queueing the rest of the release (from tty->magic = 0 ... the end) to occur asynchronously The USB update in -next would then need a call like if (tty->cleanup) tty->cleanup(tty); at the top of the async function and the USB shutdown to be split between shutdown and cleanup as the USB resource cleanup and final tidy cannot occur synchronously as it needs to sleep. In other words the logic becomes final kref put make object unfindable async clean it up Signed-off-by: Dave Young <hidave.darkstar@gmail.com> [ rjw: Rebased on top of 2.6.31-git, reworked the changelog. ] Signed-off-by: "Rafael J.

2009-09-27ACPI: Clarify resource conflict messageJean Delvare
The message "ACPI: Device needs an ACPI driver" is misleading. The device _may_ need an ACPI driver, if the BIOS implemented a custom API for the device in question (which, AFAIK, can't be checked.) If not, then either a generic ACPI driver may be used (for example "thermal"), or nothing can be done (other than a white list). I propose to reword the message to: ACPI: If an ACPI driver is available for this device, you should use it instead of the native driver which I think is more correct. Comments and suggestions welcome. I also added a message warning about possible problems and system instability when users pass acpi_enforce_resources=lax, as suggested by Len.
