[PATCH] NFS: large non-page-aligned direct I/O clobbers memory
The logic in nfs_direct_read_schedule and nfs_direct_write_schedule can
allow data->npages to be one larger than rpages. This causes a page

The patch actually raises two concerns:

some other drivers (at least ipath) do the same. But we probably do not want
to add a new function for every PCIe capability. I will probably look at it
and discuss it on linux-pci in the future.
* As requested during the submission, the PCI ids of chipsets that are known to
provided aligned completion are defined in the myri10ge code. If we keep adding
new ones, it might become better to move them to pciids.h.

It is not possible to find a sub-thread in ->children/->ptrace_children

Even if it was possible to ptrace the task from the same thread group,

Resolve ARM1136 VIPT non-aliasing cache coherency issues observed when
using ptrace to set breakpoints and cleanup copy_{to,from}_user_page()
while we're here as requested by Russell King because "it's also far
too heavy on non-v6 CPUs".
NOTES:
1. Only access_process_vm() calls copy_{to,from}_user_page().
2. access_process_vm() calls get_user_pages() to pin down the "page".
3. get_user_pages() calls flush_dcache_page(page) which ensures cache
coherency between kernel and userspace mappings of "page". However
flush_dcache_page(page) may not invalidate I-Cache over this range
for all cases, specifically, I-Cache is not invalidated for the VIPT
non-aliasing case. So memory is consistent between kernel and user
space mappings of "page" but I-Cache may still be hot over this
range. IOW, we don't have to worry about flush_cache_page() before
memcpy().
4. Now, for the copy_to_user_page() case, after memcpy(), we must flush
the caches so memory is consistent with kernel cache entries and
invalidate the I-Cache if this mm region is executable. We don't
need to do anything after memcpy() for the copy_from_user_page()
case since kernel cache entries will be invalidated via the same
process above if we access "page" again. The flush_ptrace_access()
function (borrowed from SPARC64 implementation) is added to handle
cache flushing after memcpy() for the copy_to_user_page() case.

Since vma->vm_pgoff is in units of smallpages, VMAs for huge pages have the
lower HPAGE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT bits always cleared, which results in badd
offsets to the interleave functions. Take this difference from small pages
into account when calculating the offset. This does add a 0-bit shift into
the small-page path (via alloc_page_vma()), but I think that is negligible.
Also add a BUG_ON to prevent the offset from growing due to a negative
right-shift, which probably shouldn't be allowed anyways.

This solves two problems reported for delay accounting:
1. oops in __delayacct_blkio_ticks
http://www.uwsg.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0608.2/1844.html
Currently tsk->delays is getting freed too early in task exit which can
cause a NULL tsk->delays to get accessed via reading of /proc/<tgid>/stats.
The patch fixes this problem by freeing tsk->delays closer to when
task_struct itself is freed up. As a result, it also eliminates the use of
tsk->delays_lock which was only being used (inadequately) to safeguard
access to tsk->delays while a task was exiting.

[PATCH] ZVC: Scale thresholds depending on the size of the system
The ZVC counter update threshold is currently set to a fixed value of 32.
This patch sets up the threshold depending on the number of processors and
the sizes of the zones in the system.
With the current threshold of 32, I was able to observe slight contention
when more than 130-140 processors concurrently updated the counters. The
contention vanished when I either increased the threshold to 64 or used
Andrew's idea of overstepping the interval (see ZVC overstep patch).
However, we saw contention again at 220-230 processors. So we need higher
values for larger systems.
But the current default is already a bit of an overkill for smaller
systems. Some systems have tiny zones where precision matters. For
example i386 and x86_64 have 16M DMA zones and either 900M ZONE_NORMAL or
ZONE_DMA32. These are even present on SMP and NUMA systems.
The patch here sets up a threshold based on the number of processors in the
system and the size of the zone that these counters are used for. The
threshold should grow logarithmically, so we use fls() as an easy
approximation.
Results of tests on a system with 1024 processors (4TB RAM)
The following output is from a test allocating 1GB of memory concurrently
on each processor (Forking the process. So contention on mmap_sem and the
pte locks is not a factor):
Increments and decrements are usually grouped rather than mixed. We can
optimize the inc and dec functions for that case.
Increment and decrement the counters by 50% more than the threshold in
those cases and set the differential accordingly. This decreases the need
to update the atomic counters.
The idea came originally from Andrew Morton. The overstepping alone was
sufficient to address the contention issue found when updating the global
and the per zone counters from 160 processors.
Also remove some code in dec_zone_page_state.

IB/mthca: Use IRQ safe locks to protect allocation bitmaps
It is supposed to be OK to call mthca_create_ah() and mthca_destroy_ah()
from any context. However, for mem-full HCAs, these functions use the
mthca_alloc() and mthca_free() bitmap helpers, and those helpers use
non-IRQ-safe spin_lock() internally. Lockdep correctly warns that
this could lead to a deadlock. Fix this by changing mthca_alloc() and
mthca_free() to use spin_lock_irqsave().

[IPV4]: Fix SNMPv2 "ipFragFails" counter error
When I tested Linux kernel 2.6.17.7 about statistics
"ipFragFails",found that this counter couldn't increase correctly. The
criteria is RFC2011:
RFC2011
ipFragFails OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX Counter32
MAX-ACCESS read-only
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"The number of IP datagrams that have been discarded because
they needed to be fragmented at this entity but could not
be, e.g., because their Don't Fragment flag was set."
::= { ip 18 }
When I send big IP packet to a router with DF bit set to 1 which need to
be fragmented, and router just sends an ICMP error message
ICMP_FRAG_NEEDED but no increments for this counter(in the function
ip_fragment).

Both pci_disable_device and ixgb_down would access the device. It doesn't
follow Documentation/pci-error-recovery.txt that error_detected shouldn't do
any access to the device.

e100: fix error recovery
A recent patch in -mm3 titled
"gregkh-pci-pci-don-t-enable-device-if-already-enabled.patch" causes
pci_enable_device() to be a no-op if the kernel thinks that the device is
already enabled. This change breaks the PCI error recovery mechanism in
the e100 device driver, since, after PCI slot reset, the card is no longer
enabled. This is a trivial fix for this problem. Tested.
