[SCTP]: Set assoc_id correctly during INIT collision.

During the INIT/COOKIE-ACK collision cases, it's possible to get
into a situation where the association id is not yet set at the time
of the user event generation.  As a result, user events have an
association id set to 0 which will confuse applications.

This happens if we hit case B of duplicate cookie processing.
In the particular example found and provided by Oscar Isaula
<Oscar.Isaula@motorola.com>, flow looks like this:
A B
---- INIT------->  (lost)
    <---------INIT------
---- INIT-ACK--->
    <------ Cookie ECHO

When the Cookie Echo is received, we end up trying to update the
association that was created on A as a result of the (lost) INIT,
but that association doesn't have the ID set yet.

libata: honour host controllers that want just one host

The Marvell IDE interface on my machine would hit a BUG_ON() in
lib/iomem.c because it was calling ata_pci_init_one() specifying just a
single port on the host, but that would actually end up trying to
initialize two ports, the second one with bogus information.

This fixes "ata_pci_init_one()" so that it actually passes down the
n_ports variable that it got from the low-level driver to the host
allocation routine ("ata_host_alloc_pinfo()"), which results in the ATA
layer actually having the correct port number information.

And in order to make it all work, I also needed to fix a few places that
had incorrectly hard-coded the fact that a host always had exactly two
ports (both ata_pci_init_bmdma() and ata_request_legacy_irqs() would
just always iterate over both ports).

rework pm_ops pm_disk_mode, kill misuse

This patch series cleans up some misconceptions about pm_ops.  Some users of
the pm_ops structure attempt to use it to stop the user from entering suspend
to disk, this, however, is not possible since the user can always use
"shutdown" in /sys/power/disk and then the pm_ops are never invoked.  Also,
platforms that don't support suspend to disk simply should not allow
configuring SOFTWARE_SUSPEND (read the help text on it, it only selects
suspend to disk and nothing else, all the other stuff depends on PM).

The pm_ops structure is actually intended to provide a way to enter
platform-defined sleep states (currently supported states are "standby" and
"mem" (suspend to ram)) and additionally (if SOFTWARE_SUSPEND is configured)
allows a platform to support a platform specific way to enter low-power mode
once everything has been saved to disk.  This is currently only used by ACPI
(S4).

This patch:

The pm_ops.pm_disk_mode is used in totally bogus ways since nobody really
seems to understand what it actually does.

This patch clarifies the pm_disk_mode description.

It also removes all the arm and sh users that think they can veto suspend to
disk via pm_ops; not so since the user can always do echo shutdown >
/sys/power/disk, they need to find a better way involving Kconfig or such.

ACPI is the only user left with a non-zero pm_disk_mode.

The patch also sets the default mode to shutdown again, but when a new pm_ops
is registered its pm_disk_mode is selected as default, that way the default
stays for ACPI where it is apparently required.

single chain.  Processing of incoming packets is very expensive,

I chose in this patch to hash UDP sockets with a hash function that
take into account both their port number and address : This has a
drawback because we need two lookups : one with a given address, one

cfq hash is no more necessary.  We always can get cfqq from io context.
cfq_get_io_context_noalloc() function is introduced, because we don't

identify sync queue we've used hash key = CFQ_KEY_ASYNC. Since hash is

In all places where we dig in rb_tree we're in current context, so no
additional locking is required.

Advantages of this patch: no additional memory for hash, no seeking in
hash, code is cleaner. But it is necessary now to seek cic in per-ioc
rbtree, but it is faster:

cfq-iosched: rework the whole round-robin list concept

Drawing on some inspiration from the CFS CPU scheduler design, overhaul
the pending cfq_queue concept list management. Currently CFQ uses a
doubly linked list per priority level for sorting and service uses.
Kill those lists and maintain an rbtree of cfq_queue's, sorted by when
to service them.

This unfortunately means that the ionice levels aren't as strong
anymore, will work on improving those later. We only scale the slice
time now, not the number of times we service. This means that latency
is better (for all priority levels), but that the distinction between
the highest and lower levels aren't as big.

The diffstat speaks for itself.

- Only select the non-first queue in cfq_get_best_queue(), if there's
  a substantial difference between the best and first.

17 years agocfq-iosched: development update
Jens Axboe [Wed, 25 Apr 2007 10:44:27 +0000 (12:44 +0200)]
cfq-iosched: development update

- Implement logic for detecting cooperating processes, so we
  choose the best available queue whenever possible.

- Improve residual slice time accounting.

- Remove dead code: we no longer see async requests coming in on
  sync queues. That part was removed a long time ago. That means
  that we can also remove the difference between cfq_cfqq_sync()
  and cfq_cfqq_class_sync(), they are now indentical. And we can
  kill the on_dispatch array, just make it a counter.

- Allow a process to go into the current list, if it hasn't been
  serviced in this scheduler tick yet.

Possible future improvements including caching the cfqq lookup
in cfq_close_cooperator(), so we don't have to look it up twice.
cfq_get_best_queue() should just use that last decision instead
of doing it again.

17 years agocfq-iosched: improve preemption for cooperating tasks

cfq-iosched: improve preemption for cooperating tasks

When testing the syslet async io approach, I discovered that CFQ
sometimes didn't perform as well as expected. cfq_should_preempt()
needs to better check for cooperating tasks, so fix that by allowing
preemption of an equal priority queue if the recently queued request
is as good a candidate for IO as the one we are currently waiting for.

of dev_dbg in the !DEBUG case from being a #define to being a static
inline.  There was code in drivers/ps3/vuart.c to do exactly that,

as the redefinition is now superfluous.
