[PATCH] cpuset: update cpuset_zones_allowed comment

Update the kernel/cpuset.c:cpuset_zone_allowed() comment.

The rule for when mm/page_alloc.c should call cpuset_zone_allowed()
was intended to be:

  Don't call cpuset_zone_allowed() if you can't sleep, unless you
  pass in the __GFP_HARDWALL flag set in gfp_flag, which disables
  the code that might scan up ancestor cpusets and sleep.

The explanation of this rule in the comment above cpuset_zone_allowed() was
stale, as a result of a restructuring of some __alloc_pages() code in
November 2005.

Rewrite that comment ...

Paul Jackson [Sat, 20 May 2006 22:00:09 +0000 (15:00 -0700)]
[PATCH] Cpuset: might sleep checking zones allowed fix

Fix a couple of infrequently encountered 'sleeping function called from
invalid context' in the cpuset hooks in __alloc_pages.  Could sleep while
interrupts disabled.

The routine cpuset_zone_allowed() is called by code in mm/page_alloc.c
__alloc_pages() to determine if a zone is allowed in the current tasks
cpuset.  This routine can sleep, for certain GFP_KERNEL allocations, if the
zone is on a memory node not allowed in the current cpuset, but might be
allowed in a parent cpuset.

But we can't sleep in __alloc_pages() if in interrupt, nor if called for a
GFP_ATOMIC request (__GFP_WAIT not set in gfp_flags).

The rule was intended to be:
  Don't call cpuset_zone_allowed() if you can't sleep, unless you
  pass in the __GFP_HARDWALL flag set in gfp_flag, which disables
  the code that might scan up ancestor cpusets and sleep.

This rule was being violated in a couple of places, due to a bogus change
made (by myself, pj) to __alloc_pages() as part of the November 2005 effort
to cleanup its logic, and also due to a later fix to constrain which swap
daemons were awoken.

The bogus change can be seen at:
  http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Kernel/2005-11/4691.html
  [PATCH 01/05] mm fix __alloc_pages cpuset ALLOC_* flags

This was first noticed on a tight memory system, in code that was disabling
interrupts and doing allocation requests with __GFP_WAIT not set, which
resulted in __might_sleep() writing complaints to the log "Debug: sleeping
function called ...", when the code in cpuset_zone_allowed() tried to take
the callback_sem cpuset semaphore.

We haven't seen a system hang on this 'might_sleep' yet, but we are at
decent risk of seeing it fairly soon, especially since the additional
cpuset_zone_allowed() check was added, conditioning wakeup_kswapd(), in
March 2006.

Special thanks to Dave Chinner, for figuring this out, and a tip of the hat
to Nick Piggin who warned me of this back in Nov 2005, before I was ready
to listen.

[PATCH] pci: correctly allocate return buffers for osc calls

The OSC set and query functions do not allocate enough space for return
values, and set the output buffer length to a false, too large value.  This
causes the acpi-ca code to assume that the output buffer is larger than it
actually is, and overwrite memory when copying acpi return buffers into
this caller provided buffer.  In some cases this can cause kernel oops if
the memory that is overwritten is a pointer.  This patch will change these
calls to use a dynamically allocated output buffer, thus allowing the
acpi-ca code to decide how much space is needed.

[PATCH] NFS server subtree_check returns dubious value

Address a problem found when a Linux NFS server uses the "subtree_check"
export option.

The "subtree_check" NFS export option was designed to prohibit a client
from using a file handle for which it should not have permission.  The
algorithm used is to ensure that the entire path to the file being
referenced is accessible to the user attempting to use the file handle.  If
some part of the path is not accessible, then the operation is aborted and
the appropriate version of ESTALE is returned to the NFS client.

The error, ESTALE, is unfortunate in that it causes NFS clients to make
certain assumptions about the continued existence of the file.  They assume
that the file no longer exists and refuse to attempt to access it again.
In this case, the file really does exist, but access was denied by the
server for a particular user.

A better error to return would be an EACCES sort of error.  This would
inform the client that the particular operation that it was attempting was
not allowed, without the nasty side effects of the ESTALE error.

running Linux.  Higher resolutions and/or higher refresh rates resulted in

the physical monitor.  This patch fixes that problem on the systems I have
easy access to...

I've tested with SLES9SP3 (2.6.5+ kernel) and 2.6.16-rc6 custom kernels on
an IBM eServer p5 520 w/G450 (a.k.a GXT135P on IBM's ppc64 systems), and a
colleague of mine (Ian Romanick) tested it successfully on an Apple ppc32
box (w/GXT135P).  I also tested it on IA32 box I have with a GXT135P to
verify that it didn't obviously break anything.  In my testing, I covered
single-card, single and dual-head setups using both HD15 and DVI-D signals,
on both the IA32 and ppc64 boxes.  While everything appeared fine on both
boxes, I did encounter one problem: I can't get any signal on the DVI-D
output on the ppc64 box.  However, this is also the case without my patch.

[PATCH] sata_mv: remove local copy of queue indexes

The driver currently keeps local copies of the hardware request/response queue indexes.
But it expends significant effort ensuring consistency between the two views,
and still gets it wrong after an error or reset occurs.

This patch removes the local copies, in favour of just accessing the hardware
whenever we need them.  Eventually this may need to be tweaked again for NCQ,
but for now this works and solves problems some users were seeing.

[SCTP]: A better solution to fix the race between sctp_peeloff() and
sctp_rcv().

The goal is to hold the ref on the association/endpoint throughout the
state-machine process.  We accomplish like this:

  /* ref on the assoc/ep is taken during lookup */

  if owned_by_user(sk)
  sctp_add_backlog(skb, sk);
  else
  inqueue_push(skb, sk);

  /* drop the ref on the assoc/ep */

However, in sctp_add_backlog() we take the ref on assoc/ep and hold it
while the skb is on the backlog queue.  This allows us to get rid of the
sock_hold/sock_put in the lookup routines.

Now sctp_backlog_rcv() needs to account for potential association move.
In the unlikely event that association moved, we need to retest if the
new socket is locked by user.  If we don't this, we may have two packets
racing up the stack toward the same socket and we can't deal with it.
If the new socket is still locked, we'll just add the skb to its backlog
continuing to hold the ref on the association.  This get's rid of the
need to move packets from one backlog to another and it also safe in
case new packets arrive on the same backlog queue.

The last step, is to lock the new socket when we are moving the
association to it.  This is needed in case any new packets arrive on
the association when it moved.  We want these to go to the backlog since
we would like to avoid the race between this new packet and a packet
that may be sitting on the backlog queue of the old socket toward the
same association.

[ARM] 3529/1: s3c24xx: fix restoring control register with undefined instruction

Patch from Dimitry Andric

In arch/arm/mach-s3c2410/sleep.S, the coprocessor registers are saved at
suspend time, and restored at resume time. However, an undefined
instruction is used when attempting to restore a non-existent "auxiliary
control register".  This leads to a crash on S3C2412, which has an ARM926
core instead of an ARM920.

At suspend time, the following fragment runs:

mrc p15, 0, r7, c2, c0, 0 @ translation table base address
mrc p15, 0, r8, c2, c0, 0 @ auxiliary control register
mrc p15, 0, r9, c1, c0, 0 @ control register

and at resume time, the following fragment runs:

mcr p15, 0, r7, c2, c0, 0 @ translation table base
mcr p15, 0, r8, c1, c1, 0 @ auxilliary control
...
mcr p15, 0, r9, c1, c0, 0 @ turn on MMU, etc

There are several problems with these fragments:
1. The ARM920 and ARM926 cores don't have any "auxiliary control
   register", at least not according to the ARM920 and ARM926 TRM's.
2. The 2nd line of suspend erroneously saves the c2 register again.
3. This saved c2 value is restored using an undefined instruction.  For
   some reason this does not crash on ARM920, but does crash on ARM926.

The following patch fixes all these problems.

[PATCH] SPI: spi_bitbang: clocking fixes

This fixes two problems triggered by the MMC stack updating clocks:

 - SPI masters driver should accept a max clock speed of zero; that's one
   convention for marking idle devices.  (Presumably that helps controllers
   that don't autogate clocks to "off" when not in use.)

 - There are more than 1000 nanoseconds per millisecond; setting the clock
   down to 125 KHz now works properly.

Showing once again that Zero (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero) is still
an inexhaustible number of bugs.

[PATCH] SPI: busnum == 0 needs to work

We need to be able to have a "SPI bus 0" matching chip numbering; but
that number was wrongly used to flag dynamic allocation of a bus number.

This patch resolves that issue; now negative numbers trigger dynamic alloc.

It also updates the how-to-write-a-controller-driver overview to mention
this stuff.
