* mm: prevent divide error for small values of vm_dirty_bytesAndrea Righi2009-05-021-1/+4

[...] > > The only reason we migrate MSIs in interrupt context today is that there > wasn't infrastructure for support migration both in interrupt context > and outside of it. Yes. The idea here was to force the MSI migration to happen in process context. One of the patches in the series did disable_irq(dev->irq); irq_set_affinity(dev->irq, cpumask_of(dev->cpu)); enable_irq(dev->irq); with the above patch adding irq/manage code check for interrupt disabled and moving the interrupt in process context. IIRC, there was no IRQ_MOVE_PCNTXT when we were developing this HPET code and we ended up having this ugly hack. IRQ_MOVE_PCNTXT was there when we eventually submitted the patch upstream. But, looks like I did a blind rebasing instead of using IRQ_MOVE_PCNTXT in hpet MSI code. Below patch fixes this. i.e., revert commit 932775a4ab622e3c99bd59f14cc and add PCNTXT to HPET MSI setup. Also removes copying of desc->affinity in generic code as set_affinity routines are doing it internally. Reported-by: "Eric W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit c751085943362143f84346d274e0011419c84202 ("PM/Hibernate: Wait for SCSI devices scan to complete during resume") added a call to scsi_complete_async_scans() to software_resume(), so that it waited for the SCSI scanning to complete, but the call was added at a wrong place. Namely, it should have been added after wait_for_device_probe(), which is called only if the image partition hasn't been specified yet. Also, it's reasonable to check if the image partition is present and only wait for the device probing and SCSI scanning to complete if it is not the case. Additionally, since noresume is checked right at the beginning of software_resume() and the function returns immediately if it's set, it doesn't make sense to check it once again later.

Unfortunately, this turns out to break ARM platforms that need to talk via I2C to power control devices during the .prepare() callback. For this reason introduce two new platform suspend callbacks, .prepare_late() and .wake(), that will be called just prior to disabling non-boot CPUs and right after bringing them back on line, respectively, and use them instead of .prepare() and .finish() for ACPI suspend. Make the PM core execute the .prepare() and .finish() platform suspend callbacks where they were executed previously (that is, right after calling the regular suspend methods provided by device drivers and right before executing their regular resume methods, respectively). It is not necessary to make analogous changes to the hibernation code and data structures at the moment, because they are only used by ACPI platforms. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

* | | Remove 'recurse into child resources' logic from 'reserve_region_with_split()'Linus Torvalds2009-04-181-34/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This function is not actually used right now, since the original use case for it was done with insert_resource_expand_to_fit() instead. However, we now have another usage case that wants to basically do a "reserve IO resource, splitting around existing resources", however that one doesn't actually want the "recurse into the conflicting resource" logic at all. And since recursing into the conflicting resource was the most complex part, and isn't wanted, just remove it. Maybe we'll some day want both versions, but we can just resurrect the logic then.

The problem stems from a misguided attempt to provide a work-around for jiffies-counter failure. This work-around uses a per-CPU n_rcu_pending counter, which is incremented on each call to rcu_pending(), which in turn is called from each scheduling-clock interrupt. Each CPU then treats this counter as a surrogate for the jiffies counter, so that if the jiffies counter fails to advance, the per-CPU n_rcu_pending counter will cause RCU to invoke force_quiescent_state(), which in turn will (among other things) send resched IPIs to CPUs that have thus far failed to pass through an RCU quiescent state. Unfortunately, each CPU resets only its own counter after sending a batch of IPIs. This means that the other CPUs will also (needlessly) send -another- round of IPIs, for a full N-squared set of IPIs in the worst case every three scheduler-clock ticks until the grace period finally ends. It is not reasonable for a given CPU to reset each and every n_rcu_pending for all the other CPUs, so this patch instead simply disables the jiffies-counter "training wheels", thus eliminating the excessive IPIs. Note that the jiffies-counter IPIs do not have this problem due to the fact that the jiffies counter is global, so that the CPU sending the IPIs can easily reset things, thus preventing the other CPUs from sending redundant IPIs. Note also that the n_rcu_pending counter remains, as it will continue to be used for tracing. It may also see use to update the jiffies counter, should an appropriate kick-the-jiffies-counter API appear.

Since that patch we have a window after exit_ptrace() drops tasklist and before forget_original_parent() takes it again. In this window the child can do ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME) and nobody can untrace this child after that. Change ptrace_traceme() to not attach to the exiting ->real_parent. We don't report the error in this case, we pretend we attach right before ->real_parent calls exit_ptrace() which should untrace us anyway.

But when such taint happens, a developer might still be working on the kernel, expecting that lockdep is still enabled. But a taint disables lockdep without ever warning about it. Such a kernel behaviour doesn't really help for kernel development. This patch adds this missing warning. Since the taint is done most of the time after the main message that explain the real source issue, it seems safe to warn about it inside add_taint() so that it appears at last, without hurting the main information. v2: Use a generic helper to disable lockdep instead of an open coded xchg().

Especially the cpu_relax() loop in mutex_spin_on_owner might hurt if the mutex holding cpu has been scheduled away by the hypervisor. We would end up in a cpu_relax() loop when there is no chance that the state of the mutex changes until the target cpu has been scheduled again by the hypervisor. For that reason we should change the default behaviour to no-spin on s390. We do have an instruction which allows to yield the current cpu in favour of a different target cpu. Also we have an instruction which allows us to figure out if the target cpu is physically backed. However we need to do some performance tests until we can come up with a solution that will do the right thing on s390.

* | | async: Fix module loading async-work regressionLinus Torvalds2009-04-111-0/+3

We already saw one case of a similar issue in the ACPI battery code, where the kernel itself expected the module to be all done, and unmapped the init memory - but the async device discovery was still running. That got hacked around by just removing the "__init" (see commit 5d38258ec026921a7b266f4047ebeaa75db358e5 "ACPI battery: fix async boot oops"), but the real fix is to just make the module loading wait for all async work to be completed. It will slow down module loading, but since common devices should be built in anyway, and since the bug is really annoying and hard to handle from user space (and caused several S3 resume regressions), the simple fix to wait is the right one. This fixes at least http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13063 but probably a few other bugzilla entries too (12936, for example), and is confirmed to fix Rafael's storage driver breakage after resume bug report (no bugzilla entry). We should also be able to now revert that ACPI battery fix. Reported-and-tested-by: Rafael J.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: fix kfree crash with non-standard act_mask string If passing a string with leading white spaces to strstrip(), the returned ptr != the original ptr. This bug was introduced by me.

But including ftrace.h can pull too much things for a low level file, especially on ia64 where the ia32 private headers conflict with higher level headers. Now we isolate the syscall tracing headers in their own lightweight file.
