2008-09-11sg: disable interrupts inside sg_copy_bufferFUJITA Tomonori
The callers of sg_copy_buffer must disable interrupts before calling it (since it uses kmap_atomic). Some callers use it on interrupt-disabled code but some need to take the trouble to disable interrupts just for this. No wonder they forget about it and we hit a bug like: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11529 James said that it might be better to disable interrupts inside the function rather than risk the callers getting it wrong.

2008-09-10swiotlb: fix back-off path when memory allocation failsDaniel J Blueman
This fixes a SWIOTLB oops With SWIOTLB being enabled and straight-forward page allocation failure [1], the swiotlb_alloc_coherent fall-back path hits an issue [2], resulting in my webcam failing to work. At the time of oops, RDI is clearly a pointer to a structure which has arrived as NULL, leading to the typo in swiotlb_map_single's callsite arguments. Correctly passing the device structure [3] addresses the issue and gets my webcam working again (the allocation failure still occuring). --- [1] skype: page allocation failure. order:3, mode:0x1 Pid: 5895, comm: skype Not tainted 2.6.27-rc6-235c-debug #1 Call Trace: [<ffffffff802b7cf0>] __alloc_pages_internal+0x4a0/0x5d0 [<ffffffff802d5ddd>] alloc_pages_current+0xad/0x110 [<ffffffff802b4ccd>] __get_free_pages+0x1d/0x60 [<ffffffff8046cd39>] swiotlb_alloc_coherent+0x49/0x180 [<ffffffff80212731>] dma_alloc_coherent+0x281/0x310 [<ffffffff805621c0>] hcd_buffer_alloc+0x50/0x90 [<ffffffff805547fd>] usb_buffer_alloc+0x2d/0x40 [<ffffffffa0056763>] uvc_alloc_urb_buffers+0x53/0xf0 [uvcvideo] [<ffffffffa0056958>] uvc_init_video+0x158/0x3e0 [uvcvideo] [<ffffffffa0056c17>] uvc_video_enable+0x37/0x80 [uvcvideo] [<ffffffffa0055853>] uvc_v4l2_do_ioctl+0x723/0x1260 [uvcvideo] [<ffffffff8026dd61>] ?

2008-09-09lib: Correct printk %pF to work on all architecturesJames Bottomley
It was introduced by "vsprintf: add support for '%pS' and '%pF' pointer formats" in commit 0fe1ef24f7bd0020f29ffe287dfdb9ead33ca0b2. However, the current way its coded doesn't work on parisc64. For two reasons: 1) parisc isn't in the #ifdef and 2) parisc has a different format for function descriptors Make dereference_function_descriptor() more accommodating by allowing architecture overrides. I put the three overrides (for parisc64, ppc64 and ia64) in arch/kernel/module.c because that's where the kernel internal linker which knows how to deal with function descriptors sits.

2008-09-03powerpc: Work around gcc's -fno-omit-frame-pointer bugTony Breeds
This bug is causing random crashes (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11414). -fno-omit-frame-pointer is only needed on powerpc when -pg is also supplied, and there is a gcc bug that causes incorrect code generation on 32-bit powerpc when -fno-omit-frame-pointer is used---it uses stack locations below the stack pointer, which is not allowed by the ABI because those locations can and sometimes do get corrupted by an interrupt. This ensures that CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is only selected by ftrace. When CONFIG_FTRACE is enabled we also pass -mno-sched-epilog to work around the gcc codegen bug.

Since we are taking the fbc->lock to calculate the precise value of the counter in percpu_counter_sum() anyway, it should simply set fbc->count too, as the percpu_counter_sum_and_set() does.

2008-08-15lmb: Fix reserved region handling in lmb_enforce_memory_limit().David S. Miller
The idea of the implementation of this fix is from Michael Ellerman. This function has two loops, but they each interpret the memory_limit value differently. The first loop interprets it as a "size limit" whereas the second loop interprets it as an "address limit". Before the second loop runs, reset memory_limit to lmb_end_of_DRAM() so that it all works out. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Acked-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au>
2008-08-12docsrc: build Documentation/ sourcesRandy Dunlap
Currently source files in the Documentation/ sub-dir can easily bit-rot since they are not generally buildable, either because they are hidden in text files or because there are no Makefile rules for them. This needs to be fixed so that the source files remain usable and good examples of code instead of bad examples. Add the ability to build source files that are in the Documentation/ dir. Add to Kconfig as "BUILD_DOCSRC" config symbol. Use "CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=1 make ..." to build objects from the Documentation/ sources. Or enable BUILD_DOCSRC in the *config system. However, this symbol depends on HEADERS_CHECK since the header files need to be installed (for userspace builds). Built (using cross-tools) for x86-64, i386, alpha, ia64, sparc32, sparc64, powerpc, sh, m68k, & mips.

2008-08-12seq_file: add seq_cpumask(), seq_nodemask()Alexey Dobriyan
Short enough reads from /proc/irq/*/smp_affinity return -EINVAL for no good reason. This became noticed with NR_CPUS=4096 patches, when length of printed representation of cpumask becase 1152, but cat(1) continued to read with 1024-byte chunks. bitmap_scnprintf() in good faith fills buffer, returns 1023, check returns -EINVAL. Fix it by switching to seq_file, so handler will just fill buffer and doesn't care about offsets, length, filling EOF and all this crap. For that add seq_bitmap(), and wrappers around it -- seq_cpumask() and seq_nodemask().

2008-08-11rcu, debug: detect stalled grace periodsPaul E. McKenney
this is a diagnostic patch for Classic RCU. The approach is to record a timestamp at the beginning of the grace period (in rcu_start_batch()), then have rcu_check_callbacks() complain if: 1. it is running on a CPU that has holding up grace periods for a long time (say one second). This will identify the culprit assuming that the culprit has not disabled hardware irqs, instruction execution, or some such. 2. it is running on a CPU that is not holding up grace periods, but grace periods have been held up for an even longer time (say two seconds). It is enabled via the default-off CONFIG_DEBUG_RCU_STALL kernel parameter. Rather than exponential backoff, it backs off to once per 30 seconds. My feeling upon thinking on it was that if you have stalled RCU grace periods for that long, a few extra printk() messages are probably the least of your worries... Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2008-07-26dma-mapping: add the device argument to dma_mapping_error()FUJITA Tomonori
Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER architecture does: This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423). I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread). So I CC'ed this to KVM camp. Comments are appreciated. A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added. If the pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it. If it's NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before. If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works with hot plugging). It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate dma_mapping_ops per device. The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different dma_mapping_error functions. The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error. The patch is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in all the architecture. This patch: dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function. x86 IOMMUs use device argument.
