ocfs2: Add statistics for the checksum and ecc operations.
It would be nice to know how often we get checksum failures. Even
better, how many of them we can fix with the single bit ecc. So, we add
a statistics structure. The structure can be installed into debugfs
wherever the user wants.
For ocfs2, we'll put it in the superblock-specific debugfs directory and
pass it down from our higher-level functions. The stats are only
registered with debugfs when the filesystem supports metadata ecc.

ocfs2: timer to queue scan of all orphan slots
When a dentry is unlinked, the unlinking node takes an EX on the dentry lock
before moving the dentry to the orphan directory. Other nodes that have
this dentry in cache have a PR on the same dentry lock. When the EX is
requested, the other nodes flag the corresponding inode as MAYBE_ORPHANED
during downconvert. The inode is finally deleted when the last node to iput
the inode sees that i_nlink==0 and the MAYBE_ORPHANED flag is set.
A problem arises if a node is forced to free dentry locks because of memory
pressure. If this happens, the node will no longer get downconvert
notifications for the dentries that have been unlinked on another node.
If it also happens that node is actively using the corresponding inode and
happens to be the one performing the last iput on that inode, it will fail
to delete the inode as it will not have the MAYBE_ORPHANED flag set.
This patch fixes this shortcoming by introducing a periodic scan of the
orphan directories to delete such inodes. Care has been taken to distribute
the workload across the cluster so that no one node has to perform the task
all the time.

Move dtc and libfdt sources from arch/powerpc/boot to scripts/dtc
The powerpc kernel always requires an Open Firmware like device tree
to supply device information. On systems without OF, this comes from
a flattened device tree blob. This blob is usually generated by dtc,
a tool which compiles a text description of the device tree into the
flattened format used by the kernel. Sometimes, the bootwrapper makes
small changes to the pre-compiled device tree blob (e.g. filling in
the size of RAM). To do this it uses the libfdt library.
Because these are only used on powerpc, the code for both these tools
is included under arch/powerpc/boot (these were imported and are
periodically updated from the upstream dtc tree).
However, the microblaze architecture, currently being prepared for
merging to mainline also uses dtc to produce device tree blobs. A few
other archs have also mentioned some interest in using dtc.
Therefore, this patch moves dtc and libfdt from arch/powerpc into
scripts, where it can be used by any architecture.
The vast bulk of this patch is a literal move, the rest is adjusting
the various Makefiles to use dtc and libfdt correctly from their new
locations.

mm: close page_mkwrite races
Change page_mkwrite to allow implementations to return with the page
locked, and also change it's callers (in page fault paths) to hold the
lock until the page is marked dirty. This allows the filesystem to have
full control of page dirtying events coming from the VM.
Rather than simply hold the page locked over the page_mkwrite call, we
call page_mkwrite with the page unlocked and allow callers to return with
it locked, so filesystems can avoid LOR conditions with page lock.
The problem with the current scheme is this: a filesystem that wants to
associate some metadata with a page as long as the page is dirty, will
perform this manipulation in its ->page_mkwrite. It currently then must
return with the page unlocked and may not hold any other locks (according
to existing page_mkwrite convention).
In this window, the VM could write out the page, clearing page-dirty. The
filesystem has no good way to detect that a dirty pte is about to be
attached, so it will happily write out the page, at which point, the
filesystem may manipulate the metadata to reflect that the page is no
longer dirty.
It is not always possible to perform the required metadata manipulation in
->set_page_dirty, because that function cannot block or fail. The
filesystem may need to allocate some data structure, for example.
And the VM cannot mark the pte dirty before page_mkwrite, because
page_mkwrite is allowed to fail, so we must not allow any window where the
page could be written to if page_mkwrite does fail.
This solution of holding the page locked over the 3 critical operations
(page_mkwrite, setting the pte dirty, and finally setting the page dirty)
closes out races nicely, preventing page cleaning for writeout being
initiated in that window. This provides the filesystem with a strong
synchronisation against the VM here.
- Sage needs this race closed for ceph filesystem.
- Trond for NFS (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12913).
- I need it for fsblock.
- I suspect other filesystems may need it too (eg. btrfs).
- I have converted buffer.c to the new locking. Even simple block allocation
under dirty pages might be susceptible to i_size changing under partial page
at the end of file (we also have a buffer.c-side problem here, but it cannot
be fixed properly without this patch).
- Other filesystems (eg. NFS, maybe btrfs) will need to change their
page_mkwrite functions themselves.
[ This also moves page_mkwrite another step closer to fault, which should
eventually allow page_mkwrite to be moved into ->fault, and thus avoiding a
filesystem calldown and page lock/unlock cycle in __do_fault. ]

kbuild, modpost: Check the section flags, to catch missing "ax"/"aw"
When you put
.section ".foo"
in an assembly file instead of
.section "foo", "ax"
, one of the possible symptoms is that modpost will see an
ld-generated section name ".foo.1" in section_rel() or section_rela().
But this heuristic has two problems: it will miss a bad section that
has no relocations, and it will incorrectly flag many gcc-generated
sections as bad when compiling with -ffunction-sections
-fdata-sections.
On mips it fixes a lot of bogus warnings with gcc 4.4.0 lije this one:
WARNING: crypto/cryptd.o (.text.T.349): unexpected section name.
So instead of checking whether the section name matches a particular
pattern, we directly check for a missing SHF_ALLOC in the section
flags.

kbuild: fix Module.markers permission error under cygwin
While building the kernel, we end-up calling modpost with -K and -M
options for the same file (Modules.markers). This is resulting in
modpost's main function calling read_markers() and then write_markers() on
the same file.
We then have read_markers() mmap'ing the file, and writer_markers()
opening that same file for writing.
The issue is that read_markers() exits without munmap'ing the file and is
as a matter holding a reference on Modules.markers. When write_markers()
is opening that very same file for writing, we still have a reference on
it and cygwin (Windows?) is then making fopen() fail with EPERM.
Calling release_file() before exiting read_markers() clears that reference
(and memory leak) and fopen() then succeeds.
Tested on both cygwin (1.3.22) and Linux. Also ran modpost within
valgrind on Linux to make sure that the munmap'ed file was not accessed
after read_markers()

ocfs2: Fix a missing credit when deleting from indexed directories.
The ocfs2 directory index updates two blocks when we remove an entry -
the dx root and the dx leaf. OCFS2_DELETE_INODE_CREDITS was only

runs out of credits in jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() at

The test that caught this was running dirop_file_racer from the

ide-cd: fix REQ_QUIET tests in cdrom_decode_status
Original patch (dfa4411cc3a690011cab90e9a536938795366cf9) was buggy.
This is a more proper fix which introduces blk_rq_quiet() macro
alleviating the need for dumb, too short caching variables.
Thanks to Helge Deller and Bart for debugging this.
xfs_getbmap (or rather the formatters called by it) copy out the getbmap
structures under the ilock, which can deadlock against mmap. This has
been reported via bugzilla a while ago (#717) and has recently also
shown up via lockdep.
So allocate a temporary buffer to format the kernel getbmap structures
into and then copy them out after dropping the locks.
A little problem with this is that we limit the number of extents we
can copy out by the maximum allocation size, but I see no real way
around that.

Currently drivers/media drivers are linked very early - directly after
base, block, misc, and mfd and before ata, scsi, ide, input, firewire,
usb, and i2c. This breaks static build of video4linux drivers, that use
generic CPU i2c adapter drivers and the v4l2-subdev subsystem, because
during video4linux probing the v4l2-subdev core requires a struct
i2c_adapter context, which cannot be satisfied before the i2c subsystem is
initialised. Moving drivers/media after drivers/i2c fixes this problem.
The best way to trigger action is by submitting a patch:-) So, let's see
what comes out of it - on the one hand I don't see any reason why media
has to be linked this early, and nobody was able to give me one yesterday
as this problem has been discussed on linux-media, OTOH, maybe indeed it
would be better to move i2c the whole way up above media, but that'd be
much bigger of a change, I think.

suspend does and puts the device in D3 state. I couldn't find a way to
get the device back to a sane state in the probe function. So, based on
some similar patches from Rafael J. Wysocki for e1000, e1000e, and ixgbe,
I wrote this one for e100.

The x_tables are organized with a table structure and a per-cpu copies
of the counters and rules. On older kernels there was a reader/writer
lock per table which was a performance bottleneck. In 2.6.30-rc, this
was converted to use RCU and the counters/rules which solved the performance
problems for do_table but made replacing rules much slower because of
the necessary RCU grace period.
This version uses a per-cpu set of spinlocks and counters to allow to
table processing to proceed without the cache thrashing of a global
reader lock and keeps the same performance for table updates.
