Mark Gross [Tue, 4 Mar 2008 22:59:31 +0000 (14:59 -0800)] 
PCI: iova: lockdep false alarm fix

lockdep goes off on the iova copy_reserved_iova() because it and a function
it calls grabs locks in the from, and the to of the copy operation.

The function grab locks of the same lock classes triggering the warning.  The
first lock grabbed is for the constant reserved areas that is never accessed
after early boot.  Technically you could do without grabbing the locks for the
"from" structure its copying reserved areas from.

But dropping the from locks to me looks wrong, even though it would be ok.

The affected code only runs in early boot as its setting up the DMAR
engines.

This patch gives the reserved_ioval_list locks special lockdep classes.

Mikael Pettersson [Sun, 23 Mar 2008 17:41:01 +0000 (18:41 +0100)] 
sata_promise: fix hardreset hotplug events, take 2

A Promise SATA controller will signal hotplug events when a hard
reset (COMRESET) is done on a port. These events aren't masked by
the driver, and the unexpected interrupts will cause a sequence
of failed reset attempts util libata's EH finally gives up.

This has not been a common problem so far, but the pending libata
hardreset-by-default changes makes it a critical issue.

The solution is to disable hotplug events before a reset, and to
reenable them afterwards. (Promise's driver does this too.)

This patch adds SATA-specific versions of ->freeze() and ->thaw()
that also disable and enable hotplug events. PATA ports continue
to use the old versions of ->freeze() and ->thaw().

Accesses to the hotplug register must be serialised via host->lock.
We rely on ap->lock == &ap->host->lock and that libata takes this
lock before ->freeze() and ->thaw(). Document this requirement.
The interrupt handler is adjusted so its hotplug register accesses
are inside the region protected by host->lock.

Tested on various chips (SATA300TX4, SATA300TX2plus, SATAII150TX4,
FastTrack TX4000) with various combinations of SATA and PATA disks,
with and without the pending hardreset-by-default changes.

    kswapd should only wait on IO if there is IO

    The current kswapd (and try_to_free_pages) code has an oddity where the

    Additionally, tasks without __GFP_FS or __GFP_IO in the direct reclaim path
    will sleep if a significant number of pages are encountered that should be

mm: fix boundary checking in free_bootmem_core

With numa enabled, some callers could have a range of memory on one node
but try to free that on other node.  This can cause some pages to be
freed wrongly.

For example: when we try to allocate 128g boot ram early for
gart/swiotlb, and free that range later so gart/swiotlb can get some
range afterwards.

With this patch, we don't need to care which node holds the range, just
loop to call free_bootmem_node for all online nodes.

This patch makes free_bootmem_core() more robust by trimming the sidx
and eidx according the ram range that the node has.

And make the free_bootmem_core handle this out of range case.  We could
use bdata_list to make sure the range can be freed for sure.  So next
time, we don't need to loop online nodes and could use free_bootmem
directly.

SVCRDMA: Use only 1 RDMA read scatter entry for iWARP adapters

The iWARP protocol limits RDMA read requests to a single scatter
entry.  NFS/RDMA has code in rdma_read_max_sge() that is supposed to
limit the sge_count for RDMA read requests to 1, but the code to do
that is inside an #ifdef RDMA_TRANSPORT_IWARP block.  In the mainline
kernel at least, RDMA_TRANSPORT_IWARP is an enum and not a
preprocessor #define, so the #ifdef'ed code is never compiled.

In my test of a kernel build with -j8 on an NFS/RDMA mount, this
problem eventually leads to trouble starting with:

    svcrdma: Error posting send = -22
    svcrdma : RDMA_READ error = -22

and things go downhill from there.

The trivial fix is to delete the #ifdef guard.  The check seems to be
a remnant of when the NFS/RDMA code was not merged and needed to
compile against multiple kernel versions, although I don't think it
ever worked as intended.  In any case now that the code is upstream
there's no need to test whether the RDMA_TRANSPORT_IWARP constant is
defined or not.

Without this patch, my kernel build on an NFS/RDMA mount using NetEffect
adapters quickly and 100% reproducibly failed with an error like:

    ld: final link failed: Software caused connection abort

With the patch applied I was able to complete a kernel build on the
same setup.

(Tom Tucker says this is "actually an _ancient_ remnant when it had to
compile against iWARP vs. non-iWARP enabled OFA trees.")

[POWERPC] Fix Oops with TQM5200 on TQM5200

{ .type = "dma-controller", .compatible = "mpc5200-bestcomm", },

so while registering the driver, the driver's probe function won't be
called, because the device tree node doesn't have a device_type
property.  Thus the driver's bcom_engine structure won't be allocated.
Referencing this structure later causes observed Oops.

Checking bcom_eng pointer for NULL before referencing data pointed
by it prevents oopsing, but fec driver still doesn't work (because
of the lost bestcomm match and resulted task allocation failure).
Actually the compatible property exists and should match and so
the fec driver should work.

This removes .type = "dma-controller" from the bestcomm driver's
mpc52xx_bcom_of_match table to solve the problem.

stop extending the packet if it's the first packet yet to be
sent and if it's larger than the MSS.  Since each extension is
bound by the page size, this means that (given a 1500 MTU) we're
very unlikely to construct packets greater than a page, provided
that the receiver and the path is fast enough so that packets can
always be sent immediately.

The fix is also quite obvious.  The push calls inside the loop
is just an optimisation so that we don't end up doing all the
sending at the end of the loop.  Therefore there is no specific
reason why it has to do so at MSS boundaries.  For TSO, the
most natural extension of this optimisation is to do the pushing
once the skb exceeds the TSO size goal.

This is what the patch does and testing with KVM shows that the
TSO performance with a 1500 MTU easily surpasses that of a 16436
MTU and indeed the packet sizes sent are generally larger than
16436.

I don't see any obvious downsides for slower peers or connections,
but it would be prudent to test this extensively to ensure that
those cases don't regress.

16 years ago[SPARC64]: Remove most limitations to kernel image size.
David S. Miller [Sat, 22 Mar 2008 00:01:38 +0000 (17:01 -0700)] 
[SPARC64]: Remove most limitations to kernel image size.

Currently kernel images are limited to 8MB in size, and this causes
problems especially when enabling features that take up a lot of
kernel image space such as lockdep.

The code now will align the kernel image size up to 4MB and map that
many locked TLB entries.  So, the only practical limitation is the
number of available locked TLB entries which is 16 on Cheetah and 64
on pre-Cheetah sparc64 cpus.  Niagara cpus don't actually have hw
locked TLB entry support.  Rather, the hypervisor transparently
provides support for "locked" TLB entries since it runs with physical
addressing and does the initial TLB miss processing.

Fully utilizing this change requires some help from SILO, a patch for
which will be submitted to the maintainer.  Essentially, SILO will
only currently map up to 8MB for the kernel image and that needs to be
increased.

Note that neither this patch nor the SILO bits will help with network
booting.  The openfirmware code will only map up to a certain amount
of kernel image during a network boot and there isn't much we can to
about that other than to implemented a layered network booting
facility.  Solaris has this, and calls it "wanboot" and we may
implement something similar at some point.

16 years agox86: cast cmpxchg and cmpxchg_local result for 386 and 486
Mathieu Desnoyers [Thu, 6 Mar 2008 12:45:46 +0000 (13:45 +0100)]

A cast is needed in the 386 and 486 code because the type is a pointer.  In
every other integer case the original cmpxchg code (and the cmpxchg_local
which has been copied from it) worked fine, but since we touch a pointer,
the type needs to be casted in the cmpxchg_local and cmpxchg macros.

The more recent code (586+) does not have this problem (the cast is already
there).

16 years ago[TCP]: Fix shrinking windows with window scaling
Patrick McHardy [Thu, 20 Mar 2008 23:11:27 +0000 (16:11 -0700)] 
[TCP]: Fix shrinking windows with window scaling

When selecting a new window, tcp_select_window() tries not to shrink
the offered window by using the maximum of the remaining offered window
size and the newly calculated window size. The newly calculated window
size is always a multiple of the window scaling factor, the remaining
window size however might not be since it depends on rcv_wup/rcv_nxt.
This means we're effectively shrinking the window when scaling it down.

The dump below shows the problem (scaling factor 2^7):

- Window size of 557 (71296) is advertised, up to 3111907257:

IP 172.2.2.3.33000 > 172.2.2.2.33000: . ack 3111835961 win 557 <...>

- New window size of 514 (65792) is advertised, up to 3111907217, 40 bytes
  below the last end:

IP 172.2.2.3.33000 > 172.2.2.2.33000: . 3113575668:3113577116(1448) ack 3111841425 win 514 <...>

The number 40 results from downscaling the remaining window:

3111907257 - 3111841425 = 65832
65832 / 2^7 = 514
65832 % 2^7 = 40

If the sender uses up the entire window before it is shrunk, this can have
chaotic effects on the connection. When sending ACKs, tcp_acceptable_seq()
will notice that the window has been shrunk since tcp_wnd_end() is before
tp->snd_nxt, which makes it choose tcp_wnd_end() as sequence number.
This will fail the receivers checks in tcp_sequence() however since it
is before it's tp->rcv_wup, making it respond with a dupack.

If both sides are in this condition, this leads to a constant flood of
ACKs until the connection times out.

Make sure the window is never shrunk by aligning the remaining window to
the window scaling factor.
