2007-12-18genirq: revert lazy irq disable for simple irqsSteven Rostedt
In commit 76d2160147f43f982dfe881404cfde9fd0a9da21 lazy irq disabling was implemented, and the simple irq handler had a masking set to it. Remy Bohmer discovered that some devices in the ARM architecture would trigger the mask, but never unmask it. His patch to do the unmasking was questioned by Russell King about masking simple irqs to begin with. Looking further, it was discovered that the problems Remy was seeing was due to improper use of the simple handler by devices, and he later submitted patches to fix those. But the issue that was uncovered was that the simple handler should never mask. This patch reverts the masking in the simple handler.

2007-12-18clockevents: fix reprogramming decision in oneshot broadcastThomas Gleixner
Resolve the following regression of a choppy, almost unusable laptop: http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/12/7/299 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9525 A previous version of the code did the reprogramming of the broadcast device in the return from idle code. This was removed, but the logic in tick_handle_oneshot_broadcast() was kept the same. When a broadcast interrupt happens we signal the expiry to all CPUs which have an expired event. If none of the CPUs has an expired event, which can happen in dyntick mode, then we reprogram the broadcast device. We do not reprogram otherwise, but this is only correct if all CPUs, which are in the idle broadcast state have been woken up. The code ignores, that there might be pending not yet expired events on other CPUs, which are in the idle broadcast state. So the delivery of those events can be delayed for quite a time. Change the tick_handle_oneshot_broadcast() function to check for CPUs, which are in broadcast state and are not woken up by the current event, and enforce the rearming of the broadcast device for those CPUs.

2007-12-18sched: mark rwsem functions as __sched for wchan/profilingLivio Soares
This following commit http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=fdf8cb0909b531f9ae8f9b9d7e4eb35ba3505f07 un-inlined a low-level rwsem function, but did not mark it as __sched. The result is that it now shows up as thread wchan (which also affects /proc/profile stats). The following simple patch fixes this by properly marking rwsem_down_failed_common() as a __sched function. Also in this patch, which is up for discussion, marks down_read() and down_write() proper as __sched. For profiling, it is pretty much useless to know that a semaphore is beig help - it is necessary to know _which_ one. By going up another frame on the stack, the information becomes much more useful. In summary, the below change to lib/rwsem.c should be applied; the changes to kernel/rwsem.c could be applied if other kernel hackers agree with my proposal that down_read()/down_write() in the profile is not enough.

2007-12-18sched: fix crash on ia64, introduce task_current()Dmitry Adamushko
Some services (e.g. sched_setscheduler(), rt_mutex_setprio() and sched_move_task()) must handle a given task differently in case it's the 'rq->curr' task on its run-queue. The task_running() interface is not suitable for determining such tasks for platforms with one of the following options: #define __ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW #define __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW Due to the fact that it makes use of 'p->oncpu == 1' as a criterion but such a task is not necessarily 'rq->curr'.

2007-12-18[XFS] Don't wait for pending I/Os when purging blocks beyond eof.Lachlan McIlroy
On last close of a file we purge blocks beyond eof. The same code is used when we truncate the file size down. In this case we need to wait for any pending I/Os for dirty pages beyond the new eof. For the last close case we are not changing the file size and therefore do not need to wait for any I/Os to complete. This fixes a performance bottleneck where writes into the page cache and cache flushes can become mutually exclusive.

2007-12-17hugetlb: introduce nr_overcommit_hugepages sysctlNishanth Aravamudan
hugetlb: introduce nr_overcommit_hugepages sysctl While examining the code to support /proc/sys/vm/hugetlb_dynamic_pool, I became convinced that having a boolean sysctl was insufficient: 1) To support per-node control of hugepages, I have previously submitted patches to add a sysfs attribute related to nr_hugepages. However, with a boolean global value and per-mount quota enforcement constraining the dynamic pool, adding corresponding control of the dynamic pool on a per-node basis seems inconsistent to me. 2) Administration of the hugetlb dynamic pool with multiple hugetlbfs mount points is, arguably, more arduous than it needs to be. Each quota would need to be set separately, and the sum would need to be monitored. To ease the administration, and to help make the way for per-node control of the static & dynamic hugepage pool, I added a separate sysctl, nr_overcommit_hugepages. This value serves as a high watermark for the overall hugepage pool, while nr_hugepages serves as a low watermark. The boolean sysctl can then be removed, as the condition nr_overcommit_hugepages > 0 indicates the same administrative setting as hugetlb_dynamic_pool == 1 Quotas still serve as local enforcement of the size of the pool on a per-mount basis. A few caveats: 1) There is a race whereby the global surplus huge page counter is incremented before a hugepage has allocated. Another process could then try grow the pool, and fail to convert a surplus huge page to a normal huge page and instead allocate a fresh huge page. I believe this is benign, as no memory is leaked (the actual pages are still tracked correctly) and the counters won't go out of sync. 2) Shrinking the static pool while a surplus is in effect will allow the number of surplus huge pages to exceed the overcommit value. As long as this condition holds, however, no more surplus huge pages will be allowed on the system until one of the two sysctls are increased sufficiently, or the surplus huge pages go out of use and are freed. Successfully tested on x86_64 with the current libhugetlbfs snapshot, modified to use the new sysctl.

However, the names of function entry points begin with '.' in the ppc64 ABI. This causes all function text size changes to be accounted to a single 'static.' entry in the output when comparing ppc64 kernels.

2007-12-17mm: fix page allocation for larger I/O segmentsMel Gorman

This was achieved in the allocator by having expand() return pages in physically contiguous order in situations were a large buddy was split. However, list-based anti-fragmentation changed the order pages were returned in to avoid searching in buffered_rmqueue() for a page of the appropriate migrate type.

2007-12-17drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_stats.c section fixAdrian Bunk
cpufreq_stats_free_table() mustn't be __cpuexit since it's called by the __cpuinit cpufreq_stat_cpu_callback(). This patch fixes the following section mismatch reported by Chris Clayton: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.init.text+0x143dd): Section mismatch: reference to .exit.text:cpufreq_stats_free_table (between 'cpufreq_stat_cpu_callback' and 'cpufreq_stats_init') Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@kernel.org> Cc: Chris Clayton <chris2553@googlemail.com> Acked-by: Dave Jones <davej@codemonkey.org.uk> Cc: Russell King <rmk@arm.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2007-12-17cpufreq: fix missing unlocks in cpufreq_add_dev error paths.Dave Jones
Ingo hit some BUG_ONs that were probably caused by these missing unlocks causing an unbalance. He couldn't reproduce the bug reliably, so it's unknown that it's definitly fixing the problem he hit, but it's a fairly good chance, and this fixes an obvious bug. [ Dave: "Ingo followed up that he hit some lockdep related output with this applied, so it may not be right. I'll look at it after xmas if no-one has it figured out before then."

2007-12-17alpha: build fixesIvan Kokshaysky
This fixes some of the alpha-specific build problems, except a) modpost warning about COMMON symbol "saved_config" and b) nasty final link failure with gcc-4.x, -Os and scsi-disk driver configured built-in (due to jump table in .rodata referencing discarded .exit.text). - build failure with gcc-4.2.x: fix up casts in cia_io* routines to avoid warnings ('discards qualifiers from pointer target type'), which are failures, thanks to -Werror; - modpost warnings: add missing __init qualifier for titan and marvel; for non-generic build, move machine vectors from .data to .data.init.refok section; - unbreak CPU-specific optimization: rearrange cpuflags-y assignments so that extended -mcpu value (ev56, pca56, ev67) overrides basic one (ev5, ev6) and not vice versa.

As it turns out, the kernel divides by EXT3_INODES_PER_GROUP(s) when mounting an ext3 filesystem. If that number is zero, a crash follows. Below a patch.
