Make the choice of checksum a per-I/O property by introducing a flag
that can be inspected by the SCSI layer. There are several reasons for
this:
1. It allows us to switch choice of checksum without unloading and
reloading the HBA driver.
2. During error recovery we need to be able to tell the HBA that
checksums read from disk should not be verified and converted to IP
checksums.
3. For error injection purposes we need to be able to write a bad guard
tag to storage. Since the storage device only supports T10 CRC we
need to be able to disable IP checksum conversion on the HBA.

We previously used bi_integrity != NULL as a way to identify whether a

blk-mq: support per-distpatch_queue flush machinery
This patch supports to run one single flush machinery for
each blk-mq dispatch queue, so that:
- current init_request and exit_request callbacks can
cover flush request too, then the buggy copying way of
initializing flush request's pdu can be fixed
- flushing performance gets improved in case of multi hw-queue
In fio sync write test over virtio-blk(4 hw queues, ioengine=sync,
iodepth=64, numjobs=4, bs=4K), it is observed that througput gets
increased a lot over my test environment:
- throughput: +70% in case of virtio-blk over null_blk
- throughput: +30% in case of virtio-blk over SSD image
The multi virtqueue feature isn't merged to QEMU yet, and patches for
the feature can be found in below tree:
git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ming/qemu.git v2.1.0-mq.4

blk-mq: limit memory consumption if a crash dump is active
It's not uncommon for crash dump kernels to be limited to 128MB or
something low in that area. This is normally not a problem for
devices as we don't use that much memory, but for some shared SCSI
setups with huge queue depths, it can potentially fill most of
memory with tons of request allocations. blk-mq does scale back
when it fails to allocate memory, but it scales back just enough
so that blk-mq succeeds. This could still leave the system with
not enough memory to make any real progress.
Check if we are in a kdump environment and limit the hardware
queues and tag depth.
This patch removes two unnecessary blk_clear_rq_complete(),
the REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE flag is cleared inside blk_mq_start_request(),
so:
- The blk_clear_rq_complete() in blk_flush_restore_request()
needn't because the request will be freed later, and clearing
it here may open a small race window with timeout.
- The blk_clear_rq_complete() in blk_mq_requeue_request() isn't
necessary too, even though REQ_ATOM_STARTED is cleared in
__blk_mq_requeue_request(), in theory it still may cause a small
race window with timeout since the two clear_bit() may be
reordered.

Also move the reset of cmd_flags for the initializing code to the point
where a request is freed. So we will never end up with pending flush

vfs: simplify and shrink stack frame of link_path_walk()
Commit 9226b5b440f2 ("vfs: avoid non-forwarding large load after small
store in path lookup") made link_path_walk() always access the
"hash_len" field as a single 64-bit entity, in order to avoid mixed size
accesses to the members.
However, what I didn't notice was that that effectively means that the
whole "struct qstr this" is now basically redundant. We already
explicitly track the "const char *name", and if we just use "u64
hash_len" instead of "long len", there is nothing else left of the
"struct qstr".
We do end up wanting the "struct qstr" if we have a filesystem with a
"d_hash()" function, but that's a rare case, and we might as well then
just squirrell away the name and hash_len at that point.
End result: fewer live variables in the loop, a smaller stack frame, and
better code generation. And we don't need to pass in pointers variables
to helper functions any more, because the return value contains all the
relevant information. So this removes more lines than it adds, and the
source code is clearer too.

vfs: avoid non-forwarding large load after small store in path lookup
The performance regression that Josef Bacik reported in the pathname
lookup (see commit 99d263d4c5b2 "vfs: fix bad hashing of dentries") made
me look at performance stability of the dcache code, just to verify that
the problem was actually fixed. That turned up a few other problems in
this area.
There are a few cases where we exit RCU lookup mode and go to the slow
serializing case when we shouldn't, Al has fixed those and they'll come
in with the next VFS pull.
But my performance verification also shows that link_path_walk() turns
out to have a very unfortunate 32-bit store of the length and hash of
the name we look up, followed by a 64-bit read of the combined hash_len
field. That screws up the processor store to load forwarding, causing
an unnecessary hickup in this critical routine.
It's caused by the ugly calling convention for the "hash_name()"
function, and easily fixed by just making hash_name() fill in the whole
'struct qstr' rather than passing it a pointer to just the hash value.
With that, the profile for this function looks much smoother.

function and the new one into a userspace helper to get real numbers

Old hash table had 1000000 entries, 0 dupes, 0 max dupes
New hash table had 12628 entries, 987372 dupes, 900 max dupes
We had 11400 buckets with a p50 of 30 dupes, p90 of 240 dupes, p99 of 567 dupes for the new hash
My test does the hash, and then does the d_hash into a integer pointer
array the same size as the dentry hash table on my system, and then
just increments the value at the address we got to see how many
entries we overlap with.
As you can see the old hash function ended up with all 1 million
entries in their own bucket, whereas the new one they are only
distributed among ~12.5k buckets, which is why we're using so much
more CPU in __d_lookup".
The reason for this hash regression is two-fold:
- On 64-bit architectures the down-mixing of the original 64-bit
word-at-a-time hash into the final 32-bit hash value is very
simplistic and suboptimal, and just adds the two 32-bit parts
together.
In particular, because there is no bit shuffling and the mixing
boundary is also a byte boundary, similar character patterns in the
low and high word easily end up just canceling each other out.
- the old byte-at-a-time hash mixed each byte into the final hash as it
hashed the path component name, resulting in the low bits of the hash
generally being a good source of hash data. That is not true for the
word-at-a-time case, and the hash data is distributed among all the
bits.
The fix is the same in both cases: do a better job of mixing the bits up
and using as much of the hash data as possible. We already have the
"hash_32|64()" functions to do that.

Make hash_64() use a 64-bit multiply when appropriate
The hash_64() function historically does the multiply by the
GOLDEN_RATIO_PRIME_64 number with explicit shifts and adds, because
unlike the 32-bit case, gcc seems unable to turn the constant multiply
into the more appropriate shift and adds when required.
However, that means that we generate those shifts and adds even when the
architecture has a fast multiplier, and could just do it better in
hardware.
Use the now-cleaned-up CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_FAST_MULTIPLIER (together with
"is it a 64-bit architecture") to decide whether to use an integer
multiply or the explicit sequence of shift/add instructions.
Make ARCH_HAS_FAST_MULTIPLIER a real config variable
It used to be an ad-hoc hack defined by the x86 version of
<asm/bitops.h> that enabled a couple of library routines to know whether
an integer multiply is faster than repeated shifts and additions.
This just makes it use the real Kconfig system instead, and makes x86
(which was the only architecture that did this) select the option.
NOTE! Even for x86, this really is kind of wrong. If we cared, we would
probably not enable this for builds optimized for netburst (P4), where
shifts-and-adds are generally faster than multiplies. This patch does
*not* change that kind of logic, though, it is purely a syntactic change
with no code changes.
This was triggered by the fact that we have other places that really
want to know "do I want to expand multiples by constants by hand or
not", particularly the hash generation code.

The regular posix timers avoid sending signals to SIGEV_NONE timers by
not scheduling any callbacks for them in the first place. Although it
would be possible to do something similar for alarm timers, it's simpler
to handle this as a special case in the timeout.
Prior to this patch, the alarm timer would ignore the sigev_notify value
and try to deliver signals to the process anyway. Even worse, the
sanity check for the value of sigev_signo is skipped when SIGEV_NONE was
specified, so the signal number could be bogus. If sigev_signo was an
unitialized value (as it often would be if SIGEV_NONE is used), then
it's hard to predict which signal will be sent.

jiffies: Fix timeval conversion to jiffies
timeval_to_jiffies tried to round a timeval up to an integral number
of jiffies, but the logic for doing so was incorrect: intervals
corresponding to exactly N jiffies would become N+1. This manifested
itself particularly repeatedly stopping/starting an itimer:
would add a full tick to val, _even if it was exactly representable in
terms of jiffies_ (say, the result of a previous rounding.) Doing
this repeatedly would cause unbounded growth in val. So fix the math.
Here's what was wrong with the conversion: we essentially computed
(eliding seconds)
jiffies = usec * (NSEC_PER_USEC/TICK_NSEC)
by using scaling arithmetic, which took the best approximation of
NSEC_PER_USEC/TICK_NSEC with denominator of 2^USEC_JIFFIE_SC =
x/(2^USEC_JIFFIE_SC), and computed:
jiffies = (usec * x) >> USEC_JIFFIE_SC
and rounded this calculation up in the intermediate form (since we
can't necessarily exactly represent TICK_NSEC in usec.) But the
scaling arithmetic is a (very slight) *over*approximation of the true
value; that is, instead of dividing by (1 usec/ 1 jiffie), we
effectively divided by (1 usec/1 jiffie)-epsilon (rounding
down). This would normally be fine, but we want to round timeouts up,
and we did so by adding 2^USEC_JIFFIE_SC - 1 before the shift; this
would be fine if our division was exact, but dividing this by the
slightly smaller factor was equivalent to adding just _over_ 1 to the
final result (instead of just _under_ 1, as desired.)
In particular, with HZ=1000, we consistently computed that 10000 usec
was 11 jiffies; the same was true for any exact multiple of
TICK_NSEC.
We could possibly still round in the intermediate form, adding
something less than 2^USEC_JIFFIE_SC - 1, but easier still is to
convert usec->nsec, round in nanoseconds, and then convert using
time*spec*_to_jiffies. This adds one constant multiplication, and is
not observably slower in microbenchmarks on recent x86 hardware.
Tested: the following program:
int main() {
struct itimerval zero = {{0, 0}, {0, 0}};
/* Initially set to 10 ms. */
struct itimerval initial = zero;
initial.it_interval.tv_usec = 10000;
setitimer(ITIMER_PROF, &initial, NULL);
/* Save and restore several times. */
for (size_t i = 0; i < 10; ++i) {
struct itimerval prev;
setitimer(ITIMER_PROF, &zero, &prev);
/* on old kernels, this goes up by TICK_USEC every iteration */
printf("previous value: %ld %ld %ld %ld\n",

prev.it_value.tv_sec, prev.it_value.tv_usec);

KEYS: Fix termination condition in assoc array garbage collection
This fixes CVE-2014-3631.
It is possible for an associative array to end up with a shortcut node at the
root of the tree if there are more than fan-out leaves in the tree, but they
all crowd into the same slot in the lowest level (ie. they all have the same
first nibble of their index keys).
When assoc_array_gc() returns back up the tree after scanning some leaves, it
can fall off of the root and crash because it assumes that the back pointer
from a shortcut (after label ascend_old_tree) must point to a normal node -
which isn't true of a shortcut node at the root.
Should we find we're ascending rootwards over a shortcut, we should check to
see if the backpointer is zero - and if it is, we have completed the scan.
This particular bug cannot occur if the root node is not a shortcut - ie. if
you have fewer than 17 keys in a keyring or if you have at least two keys that
sit into separate slots (eg. a keyring and a non keyring).
This can be reproduced by:
ring=`keyctl newring bar @s`
for ((i=1; i<=18; i++)); do last_key=`keyctl newring foo$i $ring`; done
keyctl timeout $last_key 2
Doing this:
echo 3 >/proc/sys/kernel/keys/gc_delay
first will speed things up.
If we do fall off of the top of the tree, we get the following oops:

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
"Ben's travelling so this is my first attempt at a pull request.
There's nothing too exciting. The CONFIG_FHANDLE one is annoying, I
know you love defconfig changes. But we've had a couple of developers
waste time debugging boxes that wouldn't boot, only to realise it's
just that systemd needs CONFIG_FHANDLE and our defconfigs don't have
it.
The new syscalls seem to be working, I've run the selftests that
exist, and also let trinity bash on them for a while"
