powerpc: Fix incorrect setting of __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL
[I'm going to fix upstream differently, by having all CPU types
actually support _PAGE_SPECIAL, but I prefer the simple and obvious
fix for -stable. -- Ben]
The test that decides whether to define __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL on
powerpc is bogus and will end up always defining it, even when
_PAGE_SPECIAL is not supported (in which case it's 0) such as on
8xx or 40x processors.

We noticed very erratic behavior [throughput] with the AIM7 shared
workload running on recent distro [SLES11] and mainline kernels on an
8-socket, 32-core, 256GB x86_64 platform. On the SLES11 kernel
[2.6.27.19+] with Barcelona processors, as we increased the load [10s of
thousands of tasks], the throughput would vary between two "plateaus"--one
at ~65K jobs per minute and one at ~130K jpm. The simple patch below
causes the results to smooth out at the ~130k plateau.
But wait, there's more:
We do not see this behavior on smaller platforms--e.g., 4 socket/8 core.
This could be the result of the larger number of cpus on the larger
platform--a scalability issue--or it could be the result of the larger
number of interconnect "hops" between some nodes in this platform and how
the tasks for a given load end up distributed over the nodes' cpus and
memories--a stochastic NUMA effect.
The variability in the results are less pronounced [on the same platform]
with Shanghai processors and with mainline kernels. With 31-rc6 on
Shanghai processors and 288 file systems on 288 fibre attached storage
volumes, the curves [jpm vs load] are both quite flat with the patched
kernel consistently producing ~3.9% better throughput [~80K jpm vs ~77K
jpm] than the unpatched kernel.
Profiling indicated that the "slow" runs were incurring high[er]
contention on an anon_vma lock in vma_adjust(), apparently called from the
sbrk() system call.
The patch:
A comment in mm/mmap.c:vma_adjust() suggests that we don't really need the
anon_vma lock when we're only adjusting the end of a vma, as is the case
for brk(). The comment questions whether it's worth while to optimize for
this case. Apparently, on the newer, larger x86_64 platforms, with
interesting NUMA topologies, it is worth while--especially considering
that the patch [if correct!] is quite simple.
We can detect this condition--no overlap with next vma--by noting a NULL
"importer". The anon_vma pointer will also be NULL in this case, so
simply avoid loading vma->anon_vma to avoid the lock.
However, we DO need to take the anon_vma lock when we're inserting a vma
['insert' non-NULL] even when we have no overlap [NULL "importer"], so we
need to check for 'insert', as well. And Hugh points out that we should
also take it when adjusting vm_start (so that rmap.c can rely upon
vma_address() while it holds the anon_vma lock).
akpm: Zhang Yanmin reprts a 150% throughput improvement with aim7, so it
might be -stable material even though thiss isn't a regression: "this
issue is not clear on dual socket Nehalem machine (2*4*2 cpu), but is
severe on large machine (4*8*2 cpu)"

do_anonymous_page() has been wrong to dirty the pte regardless.
If it's not going to mark the pte writable, then it won't help
to mark it dirty here, and clogs up memory with pages which will
need swap instead of being thrown away. Especially wrong if no
overcommit is chosen, and this vma is not yet VM_ACCOUNTed -
we could exceed the limit and OOM despite no overcommit.
Hiroaki Wakabayashi points out that when mlock() has been interrupted
by SIGKILL, the subsequent munlock() takes unnecessarily long because
its use of __get_user_pages() insists on faulting in all the pages
which mlock() never reached.
It's worse than slowness if mlock() is terminated by Out Of Memory kill:
the munlock_vma_pages_all() in exit_mmap() insists on faulting in all the
pages which mlock() could not find memory for; so innocent bystanders are
killed too, and perhaps the system hangs.
__get_user_pages() does a lot that's silly for munlock(): so remove the
munlock option from __mlock_vma_pages_range(), and use a simple loop of
follow_page()s in munlock_vma_pages_range() instead; ignoring absent
pages, and not marking present pages as accessed or dirty.
(Change munlock() to only go so far as mlock() reached? That does not
work out, given the convention that mlock() claims complete success even
when it has to give up early - in part so that an underlying file can be
extended later, and those pages locked which earlier would give SIGBUS.)
After anti-fragmentation was merged, a bug was reported whereby devices
that depended on high-order atomic allocations were failing. The solution
was to preserve a property in the buddy allocator which tended to keep the
minimum number of free pages in the zone at the lower physical addresses
and contiguous. To preserve this property, MIGRATE_RESERVE was introduced
and a number of pageblocks at the start of a zone would be marked
"reserve", the number of which depended on min_free_kbytes.
Anti-fragmentation works by avoiding the mixing of page migratetypes
within the same pageblock. One way of helping this is to increase
min_free_kbytes because it becomes less like that it will be necessary to
place pages of of MIGRATE_RESERVE is unbounded, the free memory is kept
there in large contiguous blocks instead of helping anti-fragmentation as
much as it should. With the page-allocator tracepoint patches applied, it
was found during anti-fragmentation tests that the number of
fragmentation-related events were far higher than expected even with
min_free_kbytes at higher values.
This patch limits the number of MIGRATE_RESERVE blocks that exist per zone
to two. For example, with a sufficient min_free_kbytes, 4MB of memory
will be kept aside on an x86-64 and remain more or less free and
contiguous for the systems uptime. This should be sufficient for devices
depending on high-order atomic allocations while helping fragmentation
control when min_free_kbytes is tuned appropriately. As side-effect of
this patch is that the reserve variable is converted to int as unsigned
long was the wrong type to use when ensuring that only the required number
of reserve blocks are created.
With the patches applied, fragmentation-related events as measured by the
page allocator tracepoints were significantly reduced when running some
fragmentation stress-tests on systems with min_free_kbytes tuned to a
value appropriate for hugepage allocations at runtime. On x86, the events
recorded were reduced by 99.8%, on x86-64 by 99.72% and on ppc64 by
99.83%.

hugetlb: restore interleaving of bootmem huge pages (2.6.31)
Not upstream as it is fixed differently in .32
I noticed that alloc_bootmem_huge_page() will only advance to the next
node on failure to allocate a huge page. I asked about this on linux-mm

responded:
I strongly suspect that the same node being used until allocation
failure instead of round-robin is an oversight and not deliberate
at all. It appears to be a side-effect of a fix made way back in
commit 63b4613c3f0d4b724ba259dc6c201bb68b884e1a ["hugetlb: fix
hugepage allocation with memoryless nodes"]. Prior to that patch
it looked like allocations would always round-robin even when
allocation was successful.
Andy Whitcroft countered that the existing behavior looked like Andi
Kleen's original implementation and suggested that we ask him. We did and
Andy replied that his intention was to interleave the allocations. So,
...
This patch moves the advance of the hstate next node from which to
allocate up before the test for success of the attempted allocation. This
will unconditionally advance the next node from which to alloc,
interleaving successful allocations over the nodes with sufficient
contiguous memory, and skipping over nodes that fail the huge page
allocation attempt.
Note that alloc_bootmem_huge_page() will only be called for huge pages of
order > MAX_ORDER.

Interrupt transfers are submitted to the xHCI hardware using the same TRB
type as bulk transfers. Re-use the bulk transfer enqueueing code to
enqueue interrupt transfers.
Interrupt transfers are a bit different than bulk transfers. When the
interrupt endpoint is to be serviced, the xHC will consume (at most) one
TD. A TD (comprised of sg list entries) can take several service
intervals to transmit. The important thing for device drivers to note is
that if they use the scatter gather interface to submit interrupt
requests, they will not get data sent from two different scatter gather
lists in the same service interval.
For now, the xHCI driver will use the service interval from the endpoint's
descriptor (bInterval). Drivers will need a hook to poll at a more
frequent interval. Set urb->interval to the interval that the xHCI
hardware will use.

babble is detected on a transfer. The 0.96 xHCI spec says all types of
endpoints will be halted when a babble is detected. Some hardware that
claims to be 0.95 compliant halts the control endpoint anyway.
When a babble is detected on a control endpoint, check the hardware's

the control endpoint is halted, a reset endpoint command must be issued
and the transfer ring dequeue pointer needs to be moved past the stopped
transfer. Basically, we treat it as if the control endpoint had stalled.

When a control endpoint stalls, the next control transfer will clear the
stall. The USB core doesn't call down to the host controller driver's
endpoint_reset() method when control endpoints stall, so the xHCI driver
has to do all its stall handling for internal state in its interrupt handler.
When the host stalls on a control endpoint, it may stop on the data phase
or status phase of the control transfer. Like other stalled endpoints,
the xHCI driver needs to queue a Reset Endpoint command and move the
hardware's control endpoint ring dequeue pointer past the failed control
transfer (with a Set TR Dequeue Pointer or a Configure Endpoint command).
Since the USB core doesn't call usb_hcd_reset_endpoint() for control
endpoints, we need to do this in interrupt context when we get notified of
the stalled transfer. URBs may be queued to the hardware before these two
commands complete. The endpoint queue will be restarted once both
commands complete.

Full speed devices have varying max packet sizes (8, 16, 32, or 64) for
endpoint 0. The xHCI hardware needs to know the real max packet size
that the USB core discovers after it fetches the first 8 bytes of the
device descriptor.
In order to fix this without adding a new hook to host controller drivers,
the xHCI driver looks for an updated max packet size for control
endpoints. If it finds an updated size, it issues an evaluate context
command and waits for that command to finish. This should only happen in
the initialization and device descriptor fetching steps in the khubd
thread, so blocking should be fine.

Set the max packet size for the default control endpoint on high speed

of 64 bytes. There's no use setting it to eight for the initial 8 byte
descriptor fetch and then issuing (and waiting for) an evaluate context
command to update it to 64 bytes for the subsequent control transfers.
The USB core guesses that the max packet size on a full speed control
endpoint is 64 bytes, and then updates it after the first 8-byte
descriptor fetch. Change the initial setup for the xHCI internal
representation of the full speed device to have a 64 byte max packet size.

Different sections of the xHCI 0.95 specification had opposing
requirements for the chain bit in a link transaction request buffer (TRB).
The chain bit is used to designate that adjacent TRBs are all part of the
same scatter gather list that should be sent to the device. Link TRBs can
be in the middle, or at the beginning or end of these chained TRBs.
Sections 4.11.5.1 and 6.4.4.1 both stated the link TRB "shall have the
chain bit set to 1", meaning it is always chained to the next TRB.
However, section 4.6.9 on the stop endpoint command has specific cases for
what the hardware must do for a link TRB with the chain bit set to 0. The
0.96 specification errata later cleared up this issue by fixing the
4.11.5.1 and 6.4.4.1 sections to state that a link TRB can have the chain
bit set to 1 or 0.
The problem is that the xHCI cancellation code depends on the chain bit of
the link TRB being cleared when it's at the end of a TD, and some 0.95
xHCI hardware simply stops processing the ring when it encounters a link
TRB with the chain bit cleared.
Allow users who are testing 0.95 xHCI prototypes to set a module parameter
(link_quirk) to turn on this link TRB work around. Cancellation may not
work if the ring is stopped exactly on a link TRB with chain bit set, but
cancellation should be a relatively uncommon case.

only once, when it is created. (Not to mention that these actions are
reversed when the tty is released, not when it is closed.) Finally,
it is at install time that the TTY core takes its own reference to the
usb_serial module, so it is only fitting that we should act the same

This patch (as1286) changes usb_serial_get_by_index(). Now the

it has then the return value will be NULL. If the device hasn't been
disconnected then the routine will return with serial->disc_mutex
held, so that the caller can use the structure without fear of racing
against driver unloads.
This permits the scope of table_mutex in destroy_serial() to be
reduced. Instead of protecting the entire function, it suffices to
protect the part that actually uses serial_table[], i.e., the call to
return_serial(). There's no longer any danger of the refcount being
incremented after it reaches 0 (which was the reason for having the
large scope previously), because it can't reach 0 until the serial
device has been disconnected.

This patch (as1284) changes the referencing of the usb_serial and
usb_serial_port structures in usb-serial.c. It's not feasible to make
the port structures keep a reference to the serial structure, because
the ports need to remain in existence when serial is released -- quite
a few of the drivers expect this. Consequently taking a reference
to the port when the device file is open is insufficient; such a
reference would not pin serial.
To fix this, we now take a reference to serial when the device file is
opened. The final put_device() for the ports occurs in
destroy_serial(), so that the ports will last as long as they are
needed.
The patch initializes all the port devices, including those in the
unused "fake" ports. This makes the code more uniform because they
can all be released in the same way. The error handling code in
usb_serial_probe() is much simplified by this approach; instead of
freeing everything by hand we can use a single usb_serial_put() call.
Also simplified is the port-release mechanism. Instead of being two
separate routines, port_release() and port_free() can be combined into
one.

This patch (as1271) affects when new devices get linked into their
bus's list of devices. Currently this happens after probing, and it
doesn't happen at all if probing fails. Clearly this is wrong,
because at that point quite a few symbolic links have already been
created in sysfs. We are committed to adding the device, so it should
be linked into the bus's list regardless.
In addition, this needs to happen before the uevent announcing the new
device gets issued. Otherwise user programs might try to access the
device before it has been added to the bus.
To fix both these problems, the patch moves the call to
klist_add_tail() forward from bus_attach_device() to bus_add_device().
Since bus_attach_device() now does nothing but probe for drivers, it

Kernel 2.6.30 introduced a patch [1] for the persistent option in the
netfilter SNAT target. This is exactly what we need here so I had a quick look
at the code and noticed that the patch is wrong. The logic is simply inverted.
The patch below fixes this.
Also note that because of this the default behavior of the SNAT target has
changed since kernel 2.6.30 as it now ignores the destination IP in choosing
the source IP for nating (which should only be the case if the persistent
option is set).
This improves patch fa6963b24 so that perf.data stuff that has
been dumped as root can be read (annotate/report) by a user
without the use of the --force.
Rationale is that root has plenty of ways to screw us (usually)
that do not require twisted schemes involving specially
crafting a perf.data.

n_requested_mmu_pages/n_free_mmu_pages are used by
kvm_mmu_change_mmu_pages to calculate the number of pages to zap.
alloc_mmu_pages, called from the vcpu initialization path, modifies this
variables without proper locking, which can result in a negative value
in kvm_mmu_change_mmu_pages (say, with cpu hotplug).
Commit ac89a9174 ("pty: don't limit the writes to 'pty_space()' inside
'pty_write()'") removed the pty_space() checking, in order to let the
regular tty buffer code limit the buffering itself.
That was all good, but as a subtle side effect it meant that we'd be
doing a tty_wakeup() even in the case where the buffers were all filled
up, and didn't actually make any progress on the write.
Which sounds innocuous, but it interacts very badly with the ppp_async
code, which has an infinite loop in ppp_async_push() that tries to push
out data to the tty. When we call tty_wakeup(), that loop ends up
thinking that progress was made (see the subtle interactions between
XMIT_WAKEUP and 'tty_stuffed' for details). End result: one unhappy ppp
user.
Fixed by noticing when tty_insert_flip_string() didn't actually do
anything, and then not doing any more processing (including, very much
not calling tty_wakeup()).
The length of the to-copy data structure is currently stored in
a signed integer. However many comparisons are done with sizeof(..)
which is unsigned. It's more suitable for this variable to be unsigned
to make these comparisons more naturally right.

as a security check against optlen being negative (or zero) in the

Unfortunately, "sizeof(int)" is an unsigned property, with the
result that the whole comparison is done in unsigned, letting
negative values slip through.
This patch changes this to

return -EINVAL;
so that the comparison is done as signed, and negative values

Commit a5bfc4714b3f01365aef89a92673f2ceb1ccf246 dropped explicit
pci_intx() manipulation from ahci because it seemed unnecessary and
ahci doesn't seem to be the right place to be tweaking it if it were.
This was largely okay but there are exceptions. There was one on an
embedded platform which was fixed via firmware and now bko#14124
reports it on a HP DL320.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14124
I still think this isn't something libata drivers should be caring
about (the only ones which are calling pci_intx() explicitly are
libata ones and one other driver) but for now reverting the change
seems to be the right thing to do.

On setting up the callback to the client, we attempt to use the same
authentication flavor the client did. We find an rpc cred to use by
calling rpcauth_lookup_credcache(), which assumes that the given
authentication flavor has a credentials cache. However, this is not
required to be true--in particular, auth_null does not use one.
Instead, we should call the auth's lookup_cred() method.
Without this, a client attempting to mount using nfsv4 and auth_null

Ever since we enabled GEM, the pre-9xx chipsets (particularly 865) have had
serious stability issues. Back in May a wbinvd was added to the DRM to
work around much of the problem. Some failure remained -- easily visible
by dragging a window around on an X -retro desktop, or by looking at bugzilla.
The chipset flush was on the right track -- hitting the right amount of
memory, and it appears to be the only way to flush on these chipsets, but the
flush page was mapped uncached. As a result, the writes trying to clear the
writeback cache ended up bypassing the cache, and not flushing anything! The
wbinvd would flush out other writeback data and often cause the data we wanted
to get flushed, but not always. By removing the setting of the page to UC
and instead just clflushing the data we write to try to flush it, we get the
desired behavior with no wbinvd.
This exports clflush_cache_range(), which was laying around and happened to
basically match the code I was otherwise going to copy from the DRM.

This also fixes the mishandling of a partially constructed offset which
leaves pointers initialized after freeing them along the
i915_gem_create_mmap_offset() error paths.

According to the specifications, an instrument should not return more data in a
DEV_DEP_MSG_IN urb than requested. However, some instruments can send more
than requested. This could cause the kernel to write the extra data past the
end of the buffer provided by read().
Fix this by checking that the value of the TranserSize field is not larger than
the urb itself and not larger than the size of the userspace buffer. Also
correctly decrement the remaining size of the buffer when userspace read()s
more than USBTMC_SIZE_IOBUFFER.
In this patch, we always make the return value of function
usb_stor_huawei_e220_init to be zero. Then it will not prevent usb-storage
driver from attaching to the CDROM device of Huawei Datacard.
The UV BIOS has changed the way interrupt remapping is being done.
This affects the id used for sending IPIs. The upper id bits no
longer need to be masked off.
kaweth_control() never frees the buffer that it allocates for the USB
control message. Test case:
while :; do ifconfig eth2 down ; ifconfig eth2 up ; done
This is a tiny buffer so it is a slow leak. If you want to speed up the
process, you can change the allocation size to e.g. 16384 bytes, and it
will consume several megabytes within a few minutes.

Some devices from the OpenDCC project are missing in the list

http://www.opendcc.de/elektronik/usb/opendcc_usb.html
(Sorry for the german only page.)
This patch adds the three missing devices.
The M29W128G Numonyx flash devices are intolerant to any 0xFF command:
in the Cfi_util.c the function cfi_qry_mode_off() (that resets the device
after the autoselect mode) must have a 0xF0 command after the 0xFF command.
This fix solves also the cause of the fixup_M29W128G_write_buffer() fix,
that can be removed now.

The previous implementation breaks the dts binding "mtd-physmap.txt". This
implementation fixes the issue by checking the availability of the reg

This will fix file system corruption which infrequently happens after
mount. The problem was reported from users with the title "[NILFS
users] Fail to mount NILFS." (Message-ID:
<200908211918.34720.yuri@itinteg.net>), and so forth. I've also
experienced the corruption multiple times on kernel 2.6.30 and 2.6.31.
The problem turned out to be caused due to discordance between
mapping->nrpages of a btree node cache and the actual number of pages
hung on the cache; if the mapping->nrpages becomes zero even as it has
pages, truncate_inode_pages() returns without doing anything. Usually
this is harmless except it may cause page leak, but garbage collection
fairly infrequently sees a stale page remained in the btree node cache
of DAT (i.e. disk address translation file of nilfs), and induces the
corruption.
I identified a missing initialization in btree node caches was the
root cause. This corrects the bug.

Since 2.6.29 the PCI PM core have been restoring the standard
configuration registers of PCI devices in the early phase of
resume. In particular, PCI devices without drivers have been handled
this way since commit 355a72d75b3b4f4877db4c9070c798238028ecb5
(PCI: Rework default handling of suspend and resume). Unfortunately,
this leads to post-resume problems with CardBus devices which cannot
be accessed in the early phase of resume, because the sockets they
are on have not been woken up yet at that point.
To solve this problem, move the yenta socket resume to the early
phase of resume and, analogously, move the suspend of it to the late
phase of suspend. Additionally, remove some unnecessary PCI code
from the yenta socket's resume routine.
Fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13092, which is a
post-2.6.28 regression.
