[PATCH] x86-64: cleanup segments
Move __KERNEL32_CS up into the unused gdt entry. __KERNEL32_CS is
used when entering the kernel so putting it first is useful when
trying to keep boot gdt sizes to a minimum.
Set the accessed bit on all gdt entries. We don't care
so there is no need for the cpu to burn the extra cycles,
and it potentially allows the pages to be immutable. Plus
it is confusing when debugging and your gdt entries mysteriously
change.

[PATCH] x86-64: Kill temp boot pmds
Early in the boot process we need the ability to set
up temporary mappings, before our normal mechanisms are
initialized. Currently this is used to map pages that
are part of the page tables we are building and pages
during the dmi scan.
The core problem is that we are using the user portion of
the page tables to implement this. Which means that while
this mechanism is active we cannot catch NULL pointer dereferences
and we deviate from the normal ways of handling things.
In this patch I modify early_ioremap to map pages into
the kernel portion of address space, roughly where
we will later put modules, and I make the discovery of
which addresses we can use dynamic which removes all
kinds of static limits and remove the dependencies
on implementation details between different parts of the code.
Now alloc_low_page() and unmap_low_page() use
early_iomap() and early_iounmap() to allocate/map and
unmap a page.

Fix a couple of inconsistencies/problems I found while reviewing the x86_64
genapic code (when I was chasing mysterious eth0 timeouts that would only
trigger if CPU_HOTPLUG is enabled):
- AMD systems defaulted to the slower flat-physical mode instead
of the flat-logical mode. The only restriction on AMD systems
is that they should not use clustered APIC mode.
- removed the CPU hotplug hacks, switching the default for small
systems back from phys-flat to logical-flat. The switching to logical
flat mode on small systems fixed sporadic ethernet driver timeouts i
was getting on a dual-core Athlon64 system:
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out
eth0: Transmit timeout, status 0c 0005 c07f media 80.
eth0: Tx queue start entry 32 dirty entry 28.
eth0: Tx descriptor 0 is 0008a04a. (queue head)
eth0: Tx descriptor 1 is 0008a04a.
eth0: Tx descriptor 2 is 0008a04a.
eth0: Tx descriptor 3 is 0008a04a.
eth0: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex, lpa 0xC5E1
- The use of '<= 8' was a bug by itself (the valid APIC ids
for logical flat mode go from 0 to 7, not 0 to 8). The new logic
is to use logical flat mode on both AMD and Intel systems, and
to only switch to physical mode when logical mode cannot be used.
If CPU hotplug is racy wrt. APIC shutdown then CPU hotplug needs
fixing, not the whole IRQ system be made inconsistent and slowed
down.
- minor cleanups: simplified some code constructs
build & booted on a couple of AMD and Intel SMP systems.

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

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.

[TCP] FRTO: RFC4138 allows Nagle override when new data must be sent
This is a corner case where less than MSS sized new data thingie
is awaiting in the send queue. For F-RTO to work correctly, a
new data segment must be sent at certain point or F-RTO cannot
be used at all. RFC4138 allows overriding of Nagle at that
point.
Implementation uses frto_counter states 2 and 3 to distinguish
when Nagle override is needed.

[XFRM]: Restrict upper layer information by bundle.
On MIPv6 usage, XFRM sub policy is enabled.
When main (IPsec) and sub (MIPv6) policy selectors have the same
address set but different upper layer information (i.e. protocol
number and its ports or type/code), multiple bundle should be created.
However, currently we have issue to use the same bundle created for
the first time with all flows covered by the case.
It is useful for the bundle to have the upper layer information
to be restructured correctly if it does not match with the flow.
1. Bundle was created by two policies
Selector from another policy is added to xfrm_dst.
If the flow does not match the selector, it goes to slow path to
restructure new bundle by single policy.
2. Bundle was created by one policy
Flow cache is added to xfrm_dst as originated one. If the flow does
not match the cache, it goes to slow path to try searching another
policy.

[TCP]: Catch skb with S+L bugs earlier
SACKED_ACKED and LOST are mutually exclusive with SACK, thus
having their sum larger than packets_out is bug with SACK.
Eventually these bugs trigger traps in the tcp_clean_rtx_queue
with SACK but it's much more informative to do this here.
Non-SACK TCP, however, could get more than packets_out duplicate
ACKs which each increment sacked_out, so it makes sense to do
this kind of limitting for non-SACK TCP but not for SACK enabled
one. Perhaps the author had the opposite in mind but did the
logic accidently wrong way around? Anyway, the sacked_out
incrementer code for non-SACK already deals this issue before
calling sync_left_out so this trapping can be done
unconditionally.

[PATCH] INET : IPV4 UDP lookups converted to a 2 pass algo
Some people want to have many UDP sockets, binded to a single port but
many different addresses. We currently hash all those sockets into a
single chain. Processing of incoming packets is very expensive,
because the whole chain must be examined to find the best match.
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
with a wildcard (null) address.

Currently we scale the mempool sizes depending on memory installed
in the machine, except for the bio pool itself which sits at a fixed
256 entry pre-allocation.
There's really no point in "optimizing" this OOM path, we just need
enough preallocated to make progress. A single unit is enough, lets
scale it down to 2 just to be on the safe side.
This patch saves ~150kb of pinned kernel memory on a 32-bit box.
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
want to allocate cic on merging and checking may_queue. In order to
identify sync queue we've used hash key = CFQ_KEY_ASYNC. Since hash is
eliminated we need to use other criterion: sync flag for queue is added.
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:
- most processes work only with few devices
- most systems have only few block devices
- it is a rb-tree
Signed-off-by: Vasily Tarasov <vtaras@openvz.org>
Changes by me:
- Merge into CFQ devel branch
- Get rid of cfq_get_io_context_noalloc()
- Fix various bugs with dereferencing cic->cfqq[] with offset other
than 0 or 1.
- Fix bug in cfqq setup, is_sync condition was reversed.
- Fix bug where only bio_sync() is used, we need to check for a READ too
It's only used for preemption now that the IDLE and RT queues also
use the rbtree. If we pass an 'add_front' variable to
cfq_service_tree_add(), we can set ->rb_key to 0 to force insertion
at the front of the tree.
Currently CFQ does a linked insert into the current list for RT
queues. We can just factor the class into the rb insertion,
and then we don't have to treat RT queues in a special way. It's
faster, too.
For cases where the rbtree is mainly used for sorting and min retrieval,
a nice speedup of the rbtree code is to maintain a cache of the leftmost
node in the tree.
Also spotted in the CFS CPU scheduler code.
Improved by Alan D. Brunelle <Alan.Brunelle@hp.com> by updating the
leftmost hint in cfq_rb_first() if it isn't set, instead of only
updating it on insert.
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.
- Move the queue_new flag clear to when the queue is selected
- Only select the non-first queue in cfq_get_best_queue(), if there's
a substantial difference between the best and first.
- Get rid of ->busy_rr
- Only select a close cooperator, if the current queue is known to take
a while to "think".
- 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.

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.
