2008-04-29Taint kernel after WARN_ON(condition)Nur Hussein
The kernel is sent to tainted within the warn_on_slowpath() function, and whenever a warning occurs the new taint flag 'W' is set. This is useful to know if a warning occurred before a BUG by preserving the warning as a flag in the taint state. This does not work on architectures where WARN_ON has its own definition. These archs are: 1. s390 2. superh 3. avr32 4. parisc The maintainers of these architectures have been added in the Cc: list in this email to alert them to the situation. The documentation in oops-tracing.txt has been updated to include the new flag.

2008-04-29Avoid divides in BITS_TO_LONGSEric Dumazet
BITS_PER_LONG is a signed value (32 or 64) DIV_ROUND_UP(nr, BITS_PER_LONG) performs signed arithmetic if "nr" is signed too. Converting BITS_TO_LONGS(nr) to DIV_ROUND_UP(nr, BITS_PER_BYTE * sizeof(long)) makes sure compiler can perform a right shift, even if "nr" is a signed value, instead of an expensive integer divide. Applying this patch saves 141 bytes on x86 when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y and speedup bitmap operations.

2008-04-29mm: fix misleading __GFP_REPEAT related commentsNishanth Aravamudan
The definition and use of __GFP_REPEAT, __GFP_NOFAIL and __GFP_NORETRY in the core VM have somewhat differing comments as to their actual semantics. Annoyingly, the flags definition has inline and header comments, which might be interpreted as not being equivalent. Just add references to the header comments in the inline ones so they don't go out of sync in the future. In their use in __alloc_pages() clarify that the current implementation treats low-order allocations and __GFP_REPEAT allocations as distinct cases. To clarify, the flags' semantics are: __GFP_NORETRY means try no harder than one run through __alloc_pages __GFP_REPEAT means __GFP_NOFAIL __GFP_NOFAIL means repeat forever order <= PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER means __GFP_NOFAIL Signed-off-by: Nishanth Aravamudan <nacc@us.ibm.com> Acked-by: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-04-28reiserfs: unpack tails on quota filesJan Kara
Quota files cannot have tails because quota_write and quota_read functions do not support them. So far when quota files did have tail, we just refused to turn quotas on it. Sadly this check has been wrong and so there are now plenty installations where quota files don't have NOTAIL flag set and so now after fixing the check, they suddently fail to turn quotas on. Since it's easy to unpack the tail from kernel, do this from reiserfs_quota_on() which solves the problem and is generally nicer to users anyway.

2008-04-28md: introduce get_priority_stripe() to improve raid456 write performanceDan Williams
Improve write performance by preventing the delayed_list from dumping all its stripes onto the handle_list in one shot. Delayed stripes are now further delayed by being held on the 'hold_list'. The 'hold_list' is bypassed when: * a STRIPE_IO_STARTED stripe is found at the head of 'handle_list' * 'handle_list' is empty and i/o is being done to satisfy full stripe-width write requests * 'bypass_count' is less than 'bypass_threshold'. By default the threshold is 1, i.e. every other stripe handled is a preread stripe provided the top two conditions are false. Benchmark data: System: 2x Xeon 5150, 4x SATA, mem=1GB Baseline: 2.6.24-rc7 Configuration: mdadm --create /dev/md0 /dev/sd[b-e] -n 4 -l 5 --assume-clean Test1: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/md0 bs=1024k count=2048 * patched: +33% (stripe_cache_size = 256), +25% (stripe_cache_size = 512) Test2: tiobench --size 2048 --numruns 5 --block 4096 --block 131072 (XFS) * patched: +13% * patched + preread_bypass_threshold = 0: +37% Changes since v1: * reduce bypass_threshold from (chunk_size / sectors_per_chunk) to (1) and make it configurable. This defaults to fairness and modest performance gains out of the box. Changes since v2: * [neilb@suse.de]: kill STRIPE_PRIO_HI and preread_needed as they are not necessary, the important change was clearing STRIPE_DELAYED in add_stripe_bio and this has been moved out to make_request for the hang fix. * [neilb@suse.de]: simplify get_priority_stripe * [dan.j.williams@intel.com]: reset the bypass_count when ->hold_list is sampled empty (+11%) * [dan.j.williams@intel.com]: decrement the bypass_count at the detection of stripes being naturally promoted off of hold_list +2%.

2008-04-28PM/gxfb: add hook to PM console layer that allows disabling of suspend VT switchAndres Salomon
Prior to suspend, we allocate and switch to a new VT; after suspend, we switch back to the original VT. This can be slow, and is completely unnecessary if the framebuffer we're using can restore video properly. This adds a hook that allows drivers to select whether or not to do this vt switch, and changes the gxfb driver to call this hook. It also adds a module param to gxfb to allow controlling of the vt switch (defaulting to no switch). (Note: I'm not convinced that console_sem is the best way to protect this, but we should probably have some form of locking..)

2008-04-28kprobes: prevent probing of preempt_schedule()Srinivasa Ds
Prohibit users from probing preempt_schedule(). One way of prohibiting the user from probing functions is by marking such functions with __kprobes. But this method doesn't work for those functions, which are already marked to different section like preempt_schedule() (belongs to __sched section). So we use blacklist approach to refuse user from probing these functions. In blacklist approach we populate the blacklisted function's starting address and its size in kprobe_blacklist structure. Then we verify the user specified address against start and end of the blacklisted function. So any attempt to register probe on blacklisted functions will be rejected.

This patch extends the sm501 mfd with 8250 uart support. We're currently doing this in the board specific r2d-1 code already, but it would be nice to do move things into the mfd since it's more chip specific than board specific.

2008-04-28x86: configurable DMI scanning codeThomas Petazzoni
Turn CONFIG_DMI into a selectable option if EMBEDDED is defined, in order to be able to remove the DMI table scanning code if it's not needed, and then reduce the kernel code size. With CONFIG_DMI (i.e before) : text data bss dec hex filename 1076076 128656 98304 1303036 13e1fc vmlinux Without CONFIG_DMI (i.e after) : text data bss dec hex filename 1068092 126308 98304 1292704 13b9a0 vmlinux Result: text data bss dec hex filename -7984 -2348 0 -10332 -285c vmlinux The new option appears in "Processor type and features", only when CONFIG_EMBEDDED is defined.
