2009-10-14powerpc/pci: Fix MODPOST warningHeiko Schocher
making a powerpc target with PCI support, shows the following warning: MODPOST vmlinux.o WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x10430): Section mismatch in reference from the function pcibios_allocate_bus_resources() to the function .init.text:reparent_resources() The function pcibios_allocate_bus_resources() references the function __init reparent_resources(). This is often because pcibios_allocate_bus_resources lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of reparent_resources is wrong. This patch fix this warning by removing the __init annotation before reparent_resources. Signed-off-by: Heiko Schocher <hs@denx.de> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2009-10-14powerpc: Fix hypervisor TLB batchingAnton Blanchard
Profiling of a page fault scalability microbenchmark shows flush_hash_range is not calling the batch hpte invalidate hcall (H_BULK_REMOVE). It turns out we have a duplicate firmware feature for hcall-bulk and the current setup code stops after finding the first match. This meant we never batch and always do individual invalidates. The patch below removes the duplicate and shifts FW_FEATURE_CMO to close the gap. With the patch applied the single threaded page fault rate improves from 217169 to 238755 per second on a POWER5 test box, a 10% improvement.

2009-10-14powerpc/mm: Fix hang accessing top of vmalloc spaceBenjamin Herrenschmidt
On pSeries, we always force the IO space to be mapped using 4K pages even with a 64K base page size to cope with some limitations in the HV interface to some devices. However, the SLB miss handler code to discriminate between vmalloc and ioremap space uses a CPU feature section such that the code is nop'ed out when the processor support large pages non-cachable mappings. Thus, we end up always using the ioremap page size for vmalloc segments on such processors, causing a discrepency between the segment and the hash table, and thus a hang continously hashing the page. It works for the first segment of the vmalloc space since that segment is "bolted" in by C code correctly, and thankfully we almost never use the vmalloc space beyond the first segment, but the new percpu code made the bug happen. This fixes it by removing the feature section from the assembly, we now always do the comparison between vmalloc and ioremap.

2009-10-14powerpc/pmac: Fix issues with sleep on some powerbooksBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Since the change of how interrupts are disabled during suspend, certain PowerBook models started exhibiting various issues during suspend or resume from sleep. I finally tracked it down to the code that runs various "platform" functions (kind of little scripts extracted from the device-tree), which uses our i2c and PMU drivers expecting interrutps to work, and at a time where with the new scheme, they have been disabled. This causes timeouts internally which for some reason results in the PMU being unable to see the trackpad, among other issues, really it depends on the machine. Most of the time, we fail to properly adjust some clocks for suspend/resume so the results are not always predictable. This patch fixes it by using IRQF_TIMER for both the PMU and the I2C interrupts. I prefer doing it this way than moving the call sites since I really want those platform functions to still be called after all drivers (and before sysdevs). We also do a slight cleanup to via-pmu.c driver to make sure the ADB autopoll mask is handled correctly when doing bus resets Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2009-10-13powerpc64/ftrace: use PACA to retrieve TOC in mod_return_to_handlerSteven Rostedt
The mod_return_to_handler needs to switch to the kernel TOC before jumping to a the kernel code. It currently does this by looking at the kernel function data and retrieves the TOC that way. Not only is this inefficient, it also breaks with a relocatable kernel. The PACA contains the kernel TOC and we can easily retrieve it that way.

2009-10-13powerpc/ftrace: show real return addresses in modulesSteven Rostedt
When the function graph tracer is enabled, it replaces the return address with a hook back to the tracer. This makes back traces see the hook instead of the actual return address. The current code also shows the real address by checking if the return address jumps to the return_to_handler. If it is, is also prints out the saved real return address. On powerpc64, some modules may return to mod_return_to_handler, which is not checked. This patch will also show the real address if a return is to mod_return_to_handler as well.

2009-10-13TI DaVinci EMAC: Clear statistics register properly.Sriram
The mechanism to clear the statistics register is dependent on the status of GMIIEN bit in MAC control register. If the GMIIEN bit is set, the stats registers are write to decrement. If the GMIIEN bit is cleared, the stats registers are plain read/write registers. The stats register clearing operation must take into account the current state of GMIIEN as it can be cleared when the interface is brought down. With existing implementation logic, querying for interface stats when the interface is down, can corrupt the statistics counters. This patch examines the GMIIEN bit status in MAC_CONTROL register before choosing an appropriate mask for clearing stats registers.

2009-10-13Btrfs: streamline tree-log btree block writeoutChris Mason
Syncing the tree log is a 3 phase operation. 1) write and wait for all the tree log blocks for a given root. 2) write and wait for all the tree log blocks for the tree of tree log roots. 3) write and wait for the super blocks (barriers here) This isn't as efficient as it could be because there is no requirement to wait for the blocks from step one to hit the disk before we start writing the blocks from step two. This commit changes the sequence so that we don't start waiting until all the tree blocks from both steps one and two have been sent to disk. We do this by breaking up btrfs_write_wait_marked_extents into two functions, which is trivial because it was already broken up into two parts. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-10-13Btrfs: avoid tree log commit when there are no changesChris Mason
rpm has a habit of running fdatasync when the file hasn't changed. We already detect if a file hasn't been changed in the current transaction but it might have been sent to the tree-log in this transaction and not changed since the last call to fsync. In this case, we want to avoid a tree log sync, which includes a number of synchronous writes and barriers. This commit extends the existing tracking of the last transaction to change a file to also track the last sub-transaction. The end result is that rpm -ivh and -Uvh are roughly twice as fast, and on par with ext3. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2009-10-13Btrfs: only write one super copy during fsyncChris Mason
During a tree-log commit for fsync, we've been writing at least two copies of the super block and forcing them to disk. The other filesystems write only one, and this change brings us on par with them. A full transaction commit will write all the super copies, so we still have redundant info written on a regular basis. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

2009-10-13tcp: fix tcp_defer_accept to consider the timeoutWilly Tarreau
I was trying to use TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT and noticed that if the client does not talk, the connection is never accepted and remains in SYN_RECV state until the retransmits expire, where it finally is deleted. This is bad when some firewall such as netfilter sits between the client and the server because the firewall sees the connection in ESTABLISHED state while the server will finally silently drop it without sending an RST. This behaviour contradicts the man page which says it should wait only for some time : TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT (since Linux 2.4) Allows a listener to be awakened only when data arrives on the socket. Takes an integer value (seconds), this can bound the maximum number of attempts TCP will make to complete the connection. This option should not be used in code intended to be portable. Also, looking at ipv4/tcp.c, a retransmit counter is correctly computed : case TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT: icsk->icsk_accept_queue.rskq_defer_accept = 0; if (val > 0) { /* Translate value in seconds to number of * retransmits */ while (icsk->icsk_accept_queue.rskq_defer_accept < 32 && val > ((TCP_TIMEOUT_INIT / HZ) << icsk->icsk_accept_queue.rskq_defer_accept)) icsk->icsk_accept_queue.rskq_defer_accept++; icsk->icsk_accept_queue.rskq_defer_accept++; } break; ==> rskq_defer_accept is used as a counter of retransmits. But in tcp_minisocks.c, this counter is only checked. And in fact, I have found no location which updates it. So I think that what was intended was to decrease it in tcp_minisocks whenever it is checked, which the trivial patch below does. Signed-off-by: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu> Signed-off-by: David S.
