libata: Report disk alignment and physical block size
For disks with 4KB sectors, report the correct block size and alignment
when filling out the READ CAPACITY(16) response.
This patch is based upon code from Matthew Wilcox' 4KB ATA tree. I
fixed the bug I reported a while back caused by ATA and SCSI using
different approaches to describing the alignment.

If two CPU's simultaneously call ext4_ext_get_blocks() at the same

This bug has been in the ext4 code since almost the very beginning of

A couple of issues crept in since about 2.6.27 related to accessing PCI
device ROMs on various powerpc machines.
First, historically, we don't allocate the ROM resource in the resource
tree. I'm not entirely certain of why, I susepct they often contained
garbage on x86 but it's hard to tell. This causes the current generic
code to always call pci_assign_resource() when trying to access the said
ROM from sysfs, which will try to re-assign some new address regardless
of what the ROM BAR was already set to at boot time. This can be a
problem on hypervisor platforms like pSeries where we aren't supposed
to move PCI devices around (and in fact probably can't).
Second, our code that generates the PCI tree from the OF device-tree
(instead of doing config space probing) which we mostly use on pseries
at the moment, didn't set the (new) flag IORESOURCE_SIZEALIGN on any
resource. That means that any attempt at re-assigning such a resource
with pci_assign_resource() would fail due to resource_alignment()
returning 0.
This fixes this by doing these two things:
- The code that calculates resource flags based on the OF device-node
is improved to set IORESOURCE_SIZEALIGN on any valid BAR, and while at
it also set IORESOURCE_READONLY for ROMs since we were lacking that too
- We now allocate ROM resources as part of the resource tree. However
to limit the chances of nasty conflicts due to busted firmwares, we
only do it on the second pass of our two-passes allocation scheme,
so that all valid and enabled BARs get precedence.
This brings pSeries back the ability to access PCI ROMs via sysfs (and
thus initialize various video cards from X etc...).

powerpc: Fix oprofile sampling of marked events on POWER7
Description
-----------
Change ppc64 oprofile kernel driver to use the SLOT bits (MMCRA[37:39]only on
older processors where those bits are defined.
Background
----------
The performance monitor unit of the 64-bit POWER processor family has the
ability to collect accurate instruction-level samples when profiling on marked
events (i.e., "PM_MRK_<event-name>"). In processors prior to POWER6, the MMCRA
register contained "slot information" that the oprofile kernel driver used to
adjust the value latched in the SIAR at the time of a PMU interrupt. But as of
POWER6, these slot bits in MMCRA are no longer necessary for oprofile to use,
since the SIAR itself holds the accurate sampled instruction address. With
POWER6, these MMCRA slot bits were zero'ed out by hardware so oprofile's use of
these slot bits was, in effect, a NOP. But with POWER7, these bits are no
longer zero'ed out; however, they serve some other purpose rather than slot
information. Thus, using these bits on POWER7 to adjust the SIAR value results
in samples being attributed to the wrong instructions. The attached patch
changes the oprofile kernel driver to ignore these slot bits on all newer
processors starting with POWER6.

When ext4_get_blocks_wrap() is called with create=1, the uninitialized
extent is converted into an initialized one, so the BH_Unwritten flag
is no longer appropriate. Hence, we need to make sure the
BH_Unwritten is not left set, since the combination of BH_Mapped and
BH_Unwritten is not allowed; among other things, it will result ext4's
get_block() to be called over and over again during the write_begin

Now that the previous commit removed the "readpage" actor for hugetlb
files, read-ahead will no longer mess up the mapping, and there's no
longer any reason to treat hugetlbfs mappings specially.
Mel Gorman [Wed, 13 May 2009 14:56:10 +0000 (15:56 +0100)]
Remove implementation of readpage from the hugetlbfs_aops
The core VM assumes the page size used by the address_space in
inode->i_mapping is PAGE_SIZE but hugetlbfs breaks this assumption by
inserting pages into the page cache at offsets the core VM considers
unexpected.
This would not be a problem except that hugetlbfs also provide a
->readpage implementation. As it exists, the core VM can assume the
base page size is being used, allocate pages on behalf of the
filesystem, insert them into the page cache and call ->readpage to
populate them. These pages are the wrong size and at the wrong offset
for hugetlbfs causing confusion.
This patch deletes the ->readpage implementation for hugetlbfs on the
grounds the core VM should not be allocating and populating pages on
behalf of hugetlbfs. There should be no existing users of the
->readpage implementation so it should not cause a regression.
