sh64: Drop deprecated ISA tuning for legacy toolchains.

The original sh64 toolchains required that we tune the ISA
level accordingly to not have head.S/entry.S blow up. With
current toolchains, this is no longer the case, and the
syntax magically changed as well, causing all current
toolchains to die a horrible death.

Incidentally, code generation in other parts of the kernel
is now significantly complex enough that none of the older
toolchains make it very far these days, so there's not
even any point in preserving legacy compatability via
as-option.

This fixes a long-standing issue, as noted here:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/1/5/223

to make adjusting the tuning worthwhile.

Looking at the code, it looks like it's not handle HOLE correctly.  It ends
up returning -EIO.  Here is the patch to fix it.

If we really want to be paranoid, we can allow return values 0 (HOLE), 1
(we asked for one block) and return -EIO for more than 1 block.  But I
really don't see a reason for doing it - all we need is the block# here.
(doesn't matter how many blocks are mapped).

ext3_get_blocks_handle() returns number of blocks it mapped.  It returns 0
in case of HOLE.  ext3_getblk() should handle HOLE properly (currently its
dumping warning stack and returning -EIO).

Thomas Gleixner [Fri, 8 Sep 2006 16:47:15 +0000 (09:47 -0700)] 
[PATCH] Use the correct restart option for futex_lock_pi

The current implementation of futex_lock_pi returns -ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK
in case that the lock operation has been interrupted by a signal.  This
results in a return of -EINTR to userspace in case there is an handler for
the signal.  This is wrong, because userspace expects that the lock
function does not return in any case of signal delivery.

This was not caught by my insufficient test case, but triggered a nasty
userspace problem in an high load application scenario.  Unfortunately also
glibc does not check for this invalid return value.

Using -ERSTARTNOINTR makes sure, that the interrupted syscall is restarted.
 The restart block related code can be safely removed, as the possible
timeout argument is an absolute time value.

18 years ago[XFS] Prevent free space oversubscription and xfssyncd looping.
David Chinner [Thu, 7 Sep 2006 04:26:50 +0000 (14:26 +1000)] 
[XFS] Prevent free space oversubscription and xfssyncd looping.

The fix for recent ENOSPC deadlocks introduced certain limitations on
allocations. The fix could cause xfssyncd to loop endlessly if we did not
leave some space free for the allocator to work correctly. Basically, we
needed to ensure that we had at least 4 blocks free for an AG free list
and a block for the inode bmap btree at all times.

However, this did not take into account the fact that each AG has a free
list that needs 4 blocks. Hence any filesystem with more than one AG could
cause oversubscription of free space and make xfssyncd spin forever trying
to allocate space needed for AG freelists that was not available in the
AG.

The following patch reserves space for the free lists in all AGs plus the
inode bmap btree which prevents oversubscription. It also prevents those
blocks from being reported as free space (as they can never be used) and
makes the SMP in-core superblock accounting code and the reserved block
ioctl respect this requirement.

[ARM] 3762/1: Fix ptrace cache coherency bug for ARM1136 VIPT nonaliasing Harvard caches

Patch from George G. Davis

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.

[PATCH] fix NUMA interleaving for huge pages

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.

[PATCH] dm: work around mempool_alloc, bio_alloc_bioset deadlocks

This patch works around a complex dm-related deadlock/livelock down in the

Alasdair said:

  Several dm targets suffer from this.

  Mempools are not yet used correctly everywhere in device-mapper: they can
  get shared when devices are stacked, and some targets share them across
  multiple instances.  I made fixing this one of the prerequisites for this
  patch:

    md-dm-reduce-stack-usage-with-stacked-block-devices.patch

  which in some cases makes people more likely to hit the problem.

  There's been some progress on this recently with (unfinished) dm-crypt
  patches at:

    http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/agk/patches/2.6/editing/
      (dm-crypt-move-io-to-workqueue.patch plus dependencies)

and:

  I've no problems with a temporary workaround like that, but Milan Broz (a
  new Redhat developer in the Czech Republic) has started reviewing all the
  mempool usage in device-mapper so I'm expecting we'll soon have a proper fix
  for this associated problems.  [He's back from holiday at the start of next
  week.]

For now, this sad-but-safe little patch will allow the machine to recover.

default arch due to the ISA bus having an ID of 32.

It would have worked OK with the generic arch - for some reason the default
arch doesn't support as many busses.

So bump that up to support 256 busses, but leave it at 32 if we're building a
tiny system to save a bit of memory.

[PATCH] task delay accounting fixes

Cleanup allocation and freeing of tsk->delays used by delay accounting.
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.

2. Possible memory leak in kernel/delayacct.c
http://www.uwsg.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0608.2/1389.html

The patch cleans up tsk->delays allocations after a bad fork which was
missing earlier.

The patch has been tested to fix the problems listed above and stress
tested with rapid calls to delay accounting's taskstats command interface
(which is the other path that can access the same data, besides the /proc
interface causing the oops above).

18 years ago[PATCH] ZVC: Scale thresholds depending on the size of the system
Christoph Lameter [Fri, 1 Sep 2006 04:27:35 +0000 (21:27 -0700)] 
[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):

                       X                   MIN
TYPE:               CPUS       WALL       WALL        SYS     USER     TOTCPU
fork                   1      0.552      0.552      0.540    0.012      0.552
fork                   4      0.552      0.548      2.164    0.036      2.200
fork                  16      0.564      0.548      8.812    0.164      8.976
fork                 128      0.580      0.572     72.204    1.208     73.412
fork                 256      1.300      0.660    310.400    2.160    312.560
fork                 512      3.512      0.696   1526.836    4.816   1531.652
fork                1020     20.024      0.700  17243.176    6.688  17249.863

So a threshold of 32 is fine up to 128 processors. At 256 processors contention
becomes a factor.

Overstepping the counter (earlier patch) improves the numbers a bit:

fork                   4      0.552      0.548      2.164    0.040      2.204
fork                  16      0.552      0.548      8.640    0.148      8.788
fork                 128      0.556      0.548     69.676    0.956     70.632
fork                 256      0.876      0.636    212.468    2.108    214.576
fork                 512      2.276      0.672    997.324    4.260   1001.584
fork                1020     13.564      0.680  11586.436    6.088  11592.523

Still contention at 512 and 1020. Contention at 1020 is down by a third.
256 still has a slight bit of contention.

After this patch the counter threshold will be set to 125 which reduces
contention significantly:

fork                 128      0.560      0.548     69.776    0.932     70.708
fork                 256      0.636      0.556    143.460    2.036    145.496
fork                 512      0.640      0.548    284.244    4.236    288.480
fork                1020      1.500      0.588   1326.152    8.892   1335.044

[PATCH] ZVC: Overstep counters

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.
