2008-04-07virtio: remove overzealous BUG_ON.Rusty Russell
The 'disable_cb' callback is designed as an optimization to tell the host we don't need callbacks now. As it is not reliable, the debug check is overzealous: it can happen on two CPUs at the same time. Document this. Even if it were reliable, the virtio_net driver doesn't disable callbacks on transmit so the START_USE/END_USE debugging reentrance protection can be easily tripped even on UP. Thanks to Balaji Rao for the bug report and testing.

2008-04-07x86: fix 64-bit asm NOPS for CONFIG_GENERIC_CPUSuresh Siddha
ASM_NOP's for 64-bit kernel with CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU is broken with the recent x86 nops merge. They were using GENERIC_NOPS which will truncate the upper 32bits of %rsi, because of the missing 64bit rex prefix. For now, fall back ASM NOPS for generic cpu to K8 NOPS, similar to the code before the wrong x86 nop merge. This should resolve the crash seen by Ingo on a test-system: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 00000000d80d8ee8 IP: [<ffffffff802121af>] save_i387_ia32+0x61/0xd8 PGD b8e0067 PUD 51490067 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [1] SMP CPU 2 Modules linked in: Pid: 3871, comm: distcc Not tainted 2.6.25-rc7-sched-devel.git-x86-latest.git #359 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff802121af>] [<ffffffff802121af>] save_i387_ia32+0x61/0xd8 RSP: 0000:ffff81003abd3cb8 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: ffff810082e93400 RBX: 00000000ffc37f84 RCX: ffff8100d80d8ee0 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 00000000d80d8ee0 RDI: ffff810082e93400 RBP: 00000000ffc37fdc R08: 00000000ffc37f88 R09: 0000000000000008 R10: ffff81003abd2000 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: ffff810082e93400 R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff81011fb12dc0(0063) knlGS:00000000f7f1a6c0 CS: 0010 DS: 002b ES: 002b CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00000000d80d8ee8 CR3: 0000000076922000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process distcc (pid: 3871, threadinfo ffff81003abd2000, task ffff8100d80d8ee0) Stack: ffff8100bb670380 ffffffff8026de50 0000000000000118 0000000000000002 0000000000000002 ffff81003abd3e68 ffff81003abd3ed8 ffff81003abd3de8 ffff81003abd3d18 ffffffff80229785 ffff8100d80d8ee0 ffff810001041280 Call Trace: [<ffffffff8026de50>] ? __generic_file_aio_write_nolock+0x343/0x377 [<ffffffff80229785>] ? update_curr+0x54/0x64 [<ffffffff80227cd3>] ? ia32_setup_sigcontext+0x125/0x1d2 [<ffffffff8022839f>] ? ia32_setup_frame+0x73/0x1a5 [<ffffffff8020b2a5>] ? do_notify_resume+0x1aa/0x7db [<ffffffff8024ae8c>] ? getnstimeofday+0x31/0x85 [<ffffffff80249858>] ? ktime_get_ts+0x17/0x48 [<ffffffff80249933>] ? ktime_get+0xc/0x41 [<ffffffff8024973e>] ? hrtimer_nanosleep+0x75/0xd5 [<ffffffff80249261>] ? hrtimer_wakeup+0x0/0x21 [<ffffffff8020bfbc>] ? int_signal+0x12/0x17 [<ffffffff8030e6b3>] ? dummy_file_free_security+0x0/0x1 Code: a6 08 05 00 00 f6 40 14 01 74 34 4c 89 e7 48 0f ae 07 48 8b 86 08 05 00 00 80 78 02 00 79 02 db e2 90 8d b4 26 00 00 00 00 89 f6 <48> 8b 46 08 83 60 14 fe 0f 20 c0 48 83 c8 08 0f 22 c0 eb 07 c6 Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-04-04cgroups: add cgroup support for enabling controllers at boot timePaul Menage
The effects of cgroup_disable=foo are: - foo isn't auto-mounted if you mount all cgroups in a single hierarchy - foo isn't visible as an individually mountable subsystem As a result there will only ever be one call to foo->create(), at init time; all processes will stay in this group, and the group will never be mounted on a visible hierarchy. Any additional effects (e.g. not allocating metadata) are up to the foo subsystem. This doesn't handle early_init subsystems (their "disabled" bit isn't set be, but it could easily be extended to do so if any of the early_init systems wanted it - I think it would just involve some nastier parameter processing since it would occur before the command-line argument parser had been run. Hugh said: Ballpark figures, I'm trying to get this question out rather than processing the exact numbers: CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR adds 15% overhead to the affected paths, booting with cgroup_disable=memory cuts that back to 1% overhead (due to slightly bigger struct page). I'm no expert on distros, they may have no interest whatever in CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR=y; and the rest of us can easily build with or without it, or apply the cgroup_disable=memory patches.

2008-04-02kvm: provide kvm.h for all architecture: fixes headers_installChristian Borntraeger
Currently include/linux/kvm.h is not considered by make headers_install, because Kbuild cannot handle " unifdef-$(CONFIG_FOO) += foo.h. This problem was introduced by commit fb56dbb31c4738a3918db81fd24da732ce3b4ae6 Author: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com> Date: Sun Dec 2 10:50:06 2007 +0200 KVM: Export include/linux/kvm.h only if $ARCH actually supports KVM Currently, make headers_check barfs due to <asm/kvm.h>, which <linux/kvm.h> includes, not existing. Rather than add a zillion <asm/kvm.h>s, export kvm. only if the arch actually supports it. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com> which makes this an 2.6.25 regression. One way of solving the issue is to enhance Kbuild, but Avi and David conviced me, that changing headers_install is not the way to go. This patch changes the definition for linux/kvm.h to unifdef-y. If  unifdef-y is used for linux/kvm.h "make headers_check" will fail on all architectures without asm/kvm.h. Therefore, this patch also provides asm/kvm.h on all architectures.

This is achieved by just giving user a chance to define the clock explicitly in the board config. via CONFIG_SOC_AU1000_FREQUENCY option, defaulting to 396 MHz if the option is not given...

Based upon a lockdep report. Since ->poll() can be invoked from netpoll with interrupts disabled, we must not unconditionally enable interrupts in napi_complete(). Instead we must use local_irq_{save,restore}(). Noticed by Peter Zijlstra: <irqs disabled> netpoll_poll() poll_napi() spin_trylock(&napi->poll_lock) poll_one_napi() napi->poll() := sky2_poll() napi_complete() local_irq_disable() local_irq_enable() <--- *BUG* <irq> irq_exit() do_softirq() net_rx_action() spin_lock(&napi->poll_lock) <--- Deadlock! Because we still hold the lock.... Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-03-27rdc321x: GPIO routines bugfixesFlorian Fainelli
This patch fixes the use of GPIO routines which are in the PCI configuration space of the RDC321x, therefore reading/writing to this space without spinlock protection can be problematic. We also now request and free GPIOs and support the MGB100 board, previous code was very AR525W-centric.

2008-03-26[IPSEC]: Fix BEET outputHerbert Xu
The IPv6 BEET output function is incorrectly including the inner header in the payload to be protected. This causes a crash as the packet doesn't actually have that many bytes for a second header. The IPv4 BEET output on the other hand is broken when it comes to handling an inner IPv6 header since it always assumes an inner IPv4 header. This patch fixes both by making sure that neither BEET output function touches the inner header at all. All access is now done through the protocol-independent cb structure. Two new attributes are added to make this work, the IP header length and the IPv4 option length. They're filled in by the inner mode's output function. Thanks to Joakim Koskela for finding this problem. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-03-26x86: fix performance drop for glxSuresh Siddha
fix the 3D performance drop reported at: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10328 fb drivers are using ioremap()/ioremap_nocache(), followed by mtrr_add with WC attribute. Recent changes in page attribute code made both ioremap()/ioremap_nocache() mappings as UC (instead of previous UC-). This breaks the graphics performance, as the effective memory type is UC instead of expected WC. The correct way to fix this is to add ioremap_wc() (which uses UC- in the absence of PAT kernel support and WC with PAT) and change all the fb drivers to use this new ioremap_wc() API. We can take this correct and longer route for post 2.6.25. For now, revert back to the UC- behavior for ioremap/ioremap_nocache.
