2011-08-03mm: page_alloc: increase __GFP_BITS_SHIFT to include __GFP_OTHER_NODEJohannes Weiner
__GFP_OTHER_NODE is used for NUMA allocations on behalf of other nodes. It's supposed to be passed through from the page allocator to zone_statistics(), but it never gets there as gfp_allowed_mask is not wide enough and masks out the flag early in the allocation path. The result is an accounting glitch where successful NUMA allocations by-agent are not properly attributed as local. Increase __GFP_BITS_SHIFT so that it includes __GFP_OTHER_NODE.

1. Commit 26c4caea9d69 "don't allow duplicate entries in listener mode" changed add_del_listener(REGISTER) so that "next_cpu:" can reuse the listener allocated for the previous cpu, this doesn't look exactly right even if minor. Change the code to kfree() in the already-registered case, this case is unlikely anyway so the extra kmalloc_node() shouldn't hurt but looke more correct and clean. 2. use the plain list_for_each_entry() instead of _safe() to scan listeners->list. 3.

2011-08-03fault-injection: add ability to export fault_attr in arbitrary directoryAkinobu Mita
init_fault_attr_dentries() is used to export fault_attr via debugfs. But it can only export it in debugfs root directory. Per Forlin is working on mmc_fail_request which adds support to inject data errors after a completed host transfer in MMC subsystem. The fault_attr for mmc_fail_request should be defined per mmc host and export it in debugfs directory per mmc host like /sys/kernel/debug/mmc0/mmc_fail_request. init_fault_attr_dentries() doesn't help for mmc_fail_request. So this introduces fault_create_debugfs_attr() which is able to create a directory in the arbitrary directory and replace init_fault_attr_dentries().

2011-08-03mrst_pmu: driver for Intel Moorestown Power Management UnitLen Brown
The Moorestown (MRST) Power Management Unit (PMU) driver directs the SOC power states in the "Langwell" south complex (SCU). It hooks pci_platform_pm_ops[] and thus observes all PCI ".set_state" requests. For devices in the SC, the pmu driver translates those PCI requests into the appropriate commands for the SCU. The PMU driver helps implement S0i3, a deep system idle power idle state. Entry into S0i3 is via cpuidle, just like regular processor c-states. S0i3 depends on pre-conditions including uni-processor, graphics off, and certain IO devices in the SC must be off. If those pre-conditions are met, then the PMU allows cpuidle to enter S0i3, otherwise such requests are demoted, either to Atom C4 or Atom C6. This driver is based on prototype work by Bruce Flemming, Illyas Mansoor, Rajeev D. Muralidhar, Vishwesh M. Rudramuni, Hari Seshadri and Sujith Thomas. The current driver also includes contributions from H. Peter Anvin, Arjan van de Ven, Kristen Accardi, and Yong Wang. Thanks for additional review feedback from Alan Cox and Randy Dunlap.

2011-08-03HWPoison: add memory_failure_queue()Huang Ying
memory_failure() is the entry point for HWPoison memory error recovery. It must be called in process context. But commonly hardware memory errors are notified via MCE or NMI, so some delayed execution mechanism must be used. In MCE handler, a work queue + ring buffer mechanism is used. In addition to MCE, now APEI (ACPI Platform Error Interface) GHES (Generic Hardware Error Source) can be used to report memory errors too. To add support to APEI GHES memory recovery, a mechanism similar to that of MCE is implemented. memory_failure_queue() is the new entry point that can be called in IRQ context. The next step is to make MCE handler uses this interface too.

2011-08-03ACPI, APEI, GHES, Error records content based throttleHuang Ying
printk is used by GHES to report hardware errors. Ratelimit is enforced on the printk to avoid too many hardware error reports in kernel log. Because there may be thousands or even millions of corrected hardware errors during system running. Currently, a simple scheme is used. That is, the total number of hardware error reporting is ratelimited. This may cause some issues in practice. For example, there are two kinds of hardware errors occurred in system. One is corrected memory error, because the fault memory address is accessed frequently, there may be hundreds error report per-second. The other is corrected PCIe AER error, it will be reported once per-second. Because they share one ratelimit control structure, it is highly possible that only memory error is reported. To avoid the above issue, an error record content based throttle algorithm is implemented in the patch. Where after the first successful reporting, all error records that are same are throttled for some time, to let other kinds of error records have the opportunity to be reported. In above example, the memory errors will be throttled for some time, after being printked. Then the PCIe AER error will be printked successfully.

2011-08-03ACPI, APEI, GHES, printk support for recoverable error via NMIHuang Ying
Some APEI GHES recoverable errors are reported via NMI, but printk is not safe in NMI context. To solve the issue, a lock-less memory allocator is used to allocate memory in NMI handler, save the error record into the allocated memory, put the error record into a lock-less list. On the other hand, an irq_work is used to delay the operation from NMI context to IRQ context. The irq_work IRQ handler will remove nodes from lock-less list, printk the error record and do some further processing include recovery operation, then free the memory.

2011-08-03lib, Make gen_pool memory allocator locklessHuang Ying
This version of the gen_pool memory allocator supports lockless operation. This makes it safe to use in NMI handlers and other special unblockable contexts that could otherwise deadlock on locks. This is implemented by using atomic operations and retries on any conflicts. The disadvantage is that there may be livelocks in extreme cases. For better scalability, one gen_pool allocator can be used for each CPU. The lockless operation only works if there is enough memory available. If new memory is added to the pool a lock has to be still taken. So any user relying on locklessness has to ensure that sufficient memory is preallocated. The basic atomic operation of this allocator is cmpxchg on long. On architectures that don't have NMI-safe cmpxchg implementation, the allocator can NOT be used in NMI handler. So code uses the allocator in NMI handler should depend on CONFIG_ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG.

2011-08-03lib, Add lock-less NULL terminated single listHuang Ying
Cmpxchg is used to implement adding new entry to the list, deleting all entries from the list, deleting first entry of the list and some other operations. Because this is a single list, so the tail can not be accessed in O(1). If there are multiple producers and multiple consumers, llist_add can be used in producers and llist_del_all can be used in consumers. They can work simultaneously without lock. But llist_del_first can not be used here. Because llist_del_first depends on list->first->next does not changed if list->first is not changed during its operation, but llist_del_first, llist_add, llist_add (or llist_del_all, llist_add, llist_add) sequence in another consumer may violate that. If there are multiple producers and one consumer, llist_add can be used in producers and llist_del_all or llist_del_first can be used in the consumer. This can be summarized as follow: | add | del_first | del_all add | - | - | - del_first | | L | L del_all | | | - Where "-" stands for no lock is needed, while "L" stands for lock is needed. The list entries deleted via llist_del_all can be traversed with traversing function such as llist_for_each etc. But the list entries can not be traversed safely before deleted from the list. The order of deleted entries is from the newest to the oldest added one. If you want to traverse from the oldest to the newest, you must reverse the order by yourself before traversing. The basic atomic operation of this list is cmpxchg on long. On architectures that don't have NMI-safe cmpxchg implementation, the list can NOT be used in NMI handler. So code uses the list in NMI handler should depend on CONFIG_ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG.

2011-08-03Add Kconfig option ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHGHuang Ying
cmpxchg() is widely used by lockless code, including NMI-safe lockless code. But on some architectures, the cmpxchg() implementation is not NMI-safe, on these architectures the lockless code may need a spin_trylock_irqsave() based implementation. This patch adds a Kconfig option: ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG, so that NMI-safe lockless code can depend on it or provide different implementation according to it. On many architectures, cmpxchg is only NMI-safe for several specific operand sizes. So, ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG define in this patch only guarantees cmpxchg is NMI-safe for sizeof(unsigned long).

2011-08-03[S390] Use diagnose 308 for system resetMichael Holzheu
The diagnose 308 call is the prefered method for clearing all ongoing I/O. Therefore if it is available we use it instead of doing a manual reset. Signed-off-by: Michael Holzheu <holzheu@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>
2011-08-03[S390] Export store_status() functionMichael Holzheu
For kdump we need a store status function to save the registers for the current CPU. Therefore this patch exports a function "store_status()". In addition to that now also floating point registers are saved correctly. Signed-off-by: Michael Holzheu <holzheu@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>
2011-08-03[S390] dasd: use vmalloc for statistics input bufferStefan Weinhuber
The size of the buffer that is used to store DASD statistics input strings depends on the user input. If the input string is to large, the write operation could fail with -ENOMEM. To avoid this, use vmalloc instead of kmalloc. Signed-off-by: Stefan Weinhuber <wein@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>
2011-08-03[S390] Add PSW restart shutdown triggerMichael Holzheu
With this patch a new S390 shutdown trigger "restart" is added. If under z/VM "systerm restart" is entered or under the HMC the "PSW restart" button is pressed, the PSW located at 0 (31 bit) or 0x1a0 (64 bit) bit is loaded. Now we execute do_restart() that processes the restart action that is defined under /sys/firmware/shutdown_actions/on_restart. Currently the following actions are possible: reipl (default), stop, vmcmd, dump, and dump_reipl.

2011-08-03[S390] qdio: 2nd stage retry on SIGA-W busy conditionsJan Glauber
The SIGA-W may return with the busy bit set which means the device was blocked. The busy loop which retries the SIGA-W for 100us may not be long enough when running under a heavily loaded hypervisor. Extend the retry mechanism by adding a longer second stage which retries the SIGA-W for up to 10s. In difference to the first retry loop the second stage is using mdelay to stop the cpu between the retries and thereby avoid additional preassure in on the hypervisor. If the second stage retry is successfull a device reset is avoided. Signed-off-by: Jan Glauber <jang@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>

2011-08-03tcm_fc: Handle DDP/SW fc_frame_payload_get failures in ft_recv_write_dataKiran Patil
Problem: HW DDP context was not invalidated in case of ABORTS, etc... This leads to the problem where memory pages which are used for DDP as user descriptor could get reused for some other purpose (such as to satisfy new memory allocation request either by kernel or user mode threads) and since HW DDP context was not invalidated, HW continue to write to those pages, hence causing memory corruption. Fix: Either on incoming ABORTS or due to exchange time out, allowed the target to cleanup HW DDP context if it was setup for respective ft_cmd. Added new function to perform this cleanup, furthur it can be enhanced for other cleanup activity. Fix ft_recv_write_data() to properly handle fc_frame_payload_get to return pointer to payload if it exist. If there is no payload which is most common case (+ve case in case if DDP is working as expected, it will return NULL. Yes, scope of buf is limited to printk. Invalidation of HW context (which is done inside ft_invl_hw_context() is necessary in SUCCESS and FAILURE case of DDP. Hence invalidation is DONE as long as there was DDP setup (whether it worked correctly or not, NOTE: For some reason, if there is any error w.r.t DDP such as out of order packet reception, HW simply post the full packet in rx queue.
