* [PATCH] cfq-iosched: busy_rr fairness fixJens Axboe2006-06-011-2/+5
| | | | | | | Now that we select busy_rr for possible service, insert entries at the back of that list instead of at the front. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
* [PATCH] cfq-iosched: fix bug in timer handling for the idle classJens Axboe2006-06-011-4/+3
| | | | | | | | | There's a small window from when the timer is entered and we grab the queue lock, where cfq_set_active_queue() could be rearming the timer for us. Seen in the wild on a 12-way ppc box. Fix this by just using mod_timer(), which will do the right thing for us. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
* [PATCH] cfq-iosched: Detect hardware queueingJens Axboe2006-06-011-2/+13
| | | | | | | | If the hardware is doing real queueing, decide that it's worthless to idle the hardware. It does reasonable simultaneous io in that case anyways, and the idling hurts some work loads. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
* [PATCH] cfq-iosched: Detect idle process issuing async requestJens Axboe2006-06-011-3/+13
| | | | | | | | If we are anticipating a sync request from this process and we are waiting for that and see an async request come in, expire that slice and move on. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
* [PATCH] cfq-iosched: check busy queues before deciding we are idleJens Axboe2006-06-011-0/+7
| | | | | | | | For just one busy queue (like async write out), we often overlooked that we could queue more io and decided we were idle instead. This causes us quite a bit of performance loss. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

| * [MIPS] Fix deadlock on MP with cache aliases.Ralf Baechle2006-06-011-9/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A proper fix would involve introducing the notion of shared caches but at this stage of 2.6.17 that's going to be too intrusive and not needed for current hardware; aside I think some discussion will be needed. So for now on the affected SMP configurations which happen to suffer from cache aliases we make use of the fact that a single cache will be shared by all processors. This solves the deadlock issue and will improve performance by getting rid of the smp_call_function overhead. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

| * [MIPS] Fix marking buddy of pte global for MIPS32 w/36-bit physical addressSergei Shtylyov2006-06-011-39/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In case of CONFIG_64BIT_PHYS_ADDR, set_pte() and pte_clear() functions only set _PAGE_GLOBAL bit in the pte_low field of the buddy PTEs, forgetting to propagate ito to pte_high. Thus, the both pages might not really be made global for the CPU (since it AND's the G-bit of the odd / even PTEs together to decide whether they're global or not). Thus, if only a single page is allocated via vmalloc() or ioremap(), it's not really global for CPU (and it must be, since this is kernel mapping), and thus its ASID is compared against the current process' one -- so, we'll get into trouble sooner or later... Also, pte_none() will fail on global pages because _PAGE_GLOBAL bit is set in both pte_low and pte_high, and pte_val() will return u64 value consisting of those fields concateneted.

* | [PATCH] md: Fix badness in sysfs_notify caused by md_new_eventNeilBrown2006-05-311-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> If an error is reported by a drive in a RAID array (which is done via bi_end_io - in interrupt context), we call md_error and md_new_event which calls sysfs_notify. However sysfs_notify grabs a mutex and so cannot be called in interrupt context. This patch just creates a variant of md_new_event which avoids the sysfs call, and uses that. A better fix for later is to arrange for the event to be called from user-context. Note: avoiding the sysfs call isn't a problem as an error will not, by itself, modify the sync_action attribute. (We do still need to wake_up(&md_event_waiters) as an error by itself will modify /proc/mdstat).

* | [PATCH] sgiioc4: use mmio ops instead of port ioJeremy Higdon2006-05-311-5/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Jeremy Higdon <jeremy@sgi.com> This patch fixes a bug in sgiioc4 where it was using the default IDE port I/O operations instead of MMIO. The IDE part of the IOC4 chip uses MMIO to map the chip registers. Unfortunately, the sgiioc4 driver uses the default port IO operations, which happens to have worked for the past few years. That's about to change, however, thus this change from inX/outX to readX/writeX.

This is a temporary fix until we get proper ACPI handling in IPMI. Fixed releasing already-allocated regions when a later request fails, and forward-ported it to HEAD.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Seiji Munetoh <seiji.munetoh@gmail.com> Change the binary output format to actual ACPI TCPA log structure since the current format does not contain all event-data information that need to verify the PCRs in TPM. tpm_binary_bios_measurements_show() uses get_event_name() to convert the binary event-data to ascii format, and puts them as binary. However, to verify the PCRs, the event-data must be a actual binary event-data used by SHA1 calc. in BIOS. So, I think actual ACPI TCPA log is good for this binary output format.

* [PATCH] x86_64: Fix off by one in bad_addr checking in find_e820_areaRobert Hentosh2006-05-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Robert Hentosh <robert_hentosh@dell.com> Actually, we just stumbled on a different bug found in find_e820_area() in e820.c. The following code does not handle the edge condition correctly: while (bad_addr(&addr, size) && addr+size < ei->addr + ei->size) ; last = addr + size; if ( last > ei->addr + ei->size ) continue; The second statement in the while loop needs to be a <= b so that it is the logical negavite of the if (a > b) outside it. It needs to read: while (bad_addr(&addr, size) && addr+size <= ei->addr + ei->size) ; In the case that failed bad_addr was returning an address that is exactly size bellow the end of the e820 range. AK: Again together with the earlier avoid edma fix this fixes boot on a Dell PE6850/16GB Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] x86_64: Handle empty node zeroDaniel Yeisley2006-05-303-2/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Daniel Yeisley <dan.yeisley@unisys.com> It is possible to boot a Unisys ES7000 with CPUs from multiple cells, and not also include the memory from those cells. This can create a scenario where node 0 has cpus, but no associated memory. The system will boot fine in a configuration where node 0 has memory, but nodes 2 and 3 do not. [AK: I rechecked the code and generic code seems to indeed handle that already. Dan's original patch had a change for mm/slab.c that seems to be already in now.] Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] x86_64: fix last_tsc calculation of PM timerJan Beulich2006-05-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: "Jan Beulich" <jbeulich@novell.com> The PM timer code updates vxtime.last_tsc, but this update was done incorrectly in two ways: - offset_delay being in microseconds requires multiplying with cpu_mhz rather than cpu_khz - the multiplication of offset_delay and cpu_khz (both being 32-bit values) on most current CPUs would overflow (observed value of the delay was approximately 4000us, yielding an overflow for frequencies starting a little above 1GHz) Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] i386: apic= command line option should always beJan Beulich2006-05-301-6/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | From: "Jan Beulich" <jbeulich@novell.com> When using apic= on the kernel command line, this had no effect for machines matched by either the ACPI MADT or the MPS OEM table scan. However, when such option is specified, it should also take effect for this set of systems.

* [PATCH] x86_64: Fix stack/mmap randomization for compat tasksAndi Kleen2006-05-302-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ia32_setup_arg_pages would ignore the passed in random stack top and use its own static value. Now it uses the 8bit of randomness native i386 would use too. This indirectly fixes mmap randomization for 32bit processes too, which depends on the stack randomization. Should also give slightly better virtual cache colouring and possibly better performance with HyperThreading.
