1807a1aaf5 slab: skip calling cache_free_alien() when the platform is not numa capable
Skip calling cache_free_alien() when the platform is not numa capable.
This will avoid cache misses that happen while accessing slabp (which is
per page memory reference) to get nodeid.  Instead use a global variable to
skip the call, which is mostly likely to be present in the cache.

This gives a 0.8% performance boost with the database oltp workload on a
quad-core SMP platform and by any means the number is not small :)

f9ee228bdc signalfd: make it group-wide, fix posix-timers scheduling
With this patch any thread can dequeue its own private signals via signalfd,
even if it was created by another sub-thread.

To do so, we pass "current" to dequeue_signal() if the caller is from the same
thread group. This also fixes the scheduling of posix timers broken by the
previous patch.

If the caller doesn't belong to this thread group, we can't handle __SI_TIMER
case properly anyway. Perhaps we should forbid the cross-process signalfd usage
and convert ctx->tsk to ctx->sighand.

834d216e1f signalfd: fix interaction with posix-timers
dequeue_signal:

	if (__SI_TIMER) {
		spin_unlock(&tsk->sighand->siglock);
		do_schedule_next_timer(info);
		spin_lock(&tsk->sighand->siglock);
	}

Unless tsk == curent, this is absolutely unsafe: nothing prevents tsk from
exiting. If signalfd was passed to another process, do_schedule_next_timer()
is just wrong.

Add yet another "tsk == current" check into dequeue_signal().

This patch fixes an oopsable bug, but breaks the scheduling of posix timers
if the shared __SI_TIMER signal was fetched via signalfd attached to another
sub-thread. Mostly fixed by the next patch.

d02479bdeb posix-timers: fix creation race
sys_timer_create() sets ->it_process and unlocks ->siglock, then checks
tmr->it_sigev_notify to define if get_task_struct() is needed.

We already passed ->it_id to the caller, another thread can delete this timer
and free its memory in between.

As a minimal fix, move this code under ->siglock, sys_timer_delete() takes it
too before calling release_posix_timer().  A proper serialization would be to
take ->it_lock, we add a partly initialized timer on posix_timers_id, not
good.

179394af7a posix-timers: fix deletion race
timer_delete does:
	lock_timer();
	timer->it_process = NULL;
	unlock_timer();
	release_posix_timer();

timer->it_process is checked in lock_timer() to prevent access to a
timer, which is on the way to be deleted, but the check happens after
idr_lock is dropped. This allows release_posix_timer() to delete the
timer before the lock code can check the timer:

  CPU 0				CPU 1

  lock_timer();
  timer->it_process = NULL;
  unlock_timer();
				lock_timer()
					spin_lock(idr_lock);
					timer = idr_find();
					spin_lock(timer->lock);
					spin_unlock(idr_lock);
  release_posix_timer();
	spin_lock(idr_lock);
	idr_remove(timer);
	spin_unlock(idr_lock);
	free_timer(timer);
					if (timer->......)

Change the locking to prevent this.

34b4e4aa3c fix NULL pointer dereference in __vm_enough_memory()
The new exec code inserts an accounted vma into an mm struct which is not
current->mm.  The existing memory check code has a hard coded assumption
that this does not happen as does the security code.

As the correct mm is known we pass the mm to the security method and the
helper function.  A new security test is added for the case where we need
to pass the mm and the existing one is modified to pass current->mm to
avoid the need to change large amounts of code.

(Thanks to Tobias for fixing rejects and testing)

afe1ab4d57 correct name for rtc-m41t80
The new rtc-m41t80 driver name doesn't match its module name, which
prevents it from properly hotplugging.  Since it's new, no platforms yet
depend on that name ...  so this patch fixes the driver name to match its
module name, rather than going the other way around with a MODULE_ALIAS().

NOTE: This sort of bug is a new thing to watch out for with new-style I2C
drivers; previously I2C couldn't hotplug.

c661b078fd synchronous lumpy reclaim: wait for page writeback when directly reclaiming contiguous areas
Lumpy reclaim works by selecting a lead page from the LRU list and then
selecting pages for reclaim from the order-aligned area of pages.  In the
situation were all pages in that region are inactive and not referenced by any
process over time, it works well.

In the situation where there is even light load on the system, the pages may
not free quickly.  Out of a area of 1024 pages, maybe only 950 of them are
freed when the allocation attempt occurs because lumpy reclaim returned early.
 This patch alters the behaviour of direct reclaim for large contiguous
blocks.

The first attempt to call shrink_page_list() is asynchronous but if it fails,
the pages are submitted a second time and the calling process waits for the IO
to complete.  This may stall allocators waiting for contiguous memory but that
should be expected behaviour for high-order users.  It is preferable behaviour
to potentially queueing unnecessary areas for IO.  Note that kswapd will not
stall in this fashion.

e9187bdcbb synchronous lumpy reclaim: ensure we count pages transitioning inactive via clear_active_flags
As pointed out by Mel when reclaim is applied at higher orders a significant
amount of IO may be started.  As this takes finite time to drain reclaim will
consider more areas than ultimatly needed to satisfy the request.  This leads
to more reclaim than strictly required and reduced success rates.

I was able to confirm Mel's test results on systems locally.  These show that
even under light load the success rates drop off far more than expected.
Testing with a modified version of his patch (which follows) I was able to
allocate almost all of ZONE_MOVABLE with a near idle system.  I ran 5 test
passes sequentially following system boot (the system has 29 hugepages in
ZONE_MOVABLE):

  2.6.23-rc1              11  8  6  7  7
  sync_lumpy              28 28 29 29 26

These show that although hugely better than the near 0% success normally
expected we can only allocate about a 1/4 of the zone.  Using synchronous
reclaim for these allocations we get close to 100% as expected.

I have also run our standard high order tests and these show no regressions in
allocation success rates at rest, and some significant improvements under
load.

This patch:

We are transitioning pages from active to inactive in clear_active_flags,
those need counting as PGDEACTIVATE vm events.

ad4c2aa635 Serial 8250: handle saving the clear-on-read bits from the LSR and MSR
Reading the LSR clears the break, parity, frame error, and overrun bits in
the 8250 chip, but these are not being saved in all places that read the
LSR.  Same goes for the MSR delta bits.  Save the LSR bits off whenever the
lsr is read so they can be handled later in the receive routine.  Save the
MSR bits to be handled in the modem status routine.

Also, clear the stored bits and clear the interrupt registers before
enabling interrupts, to avoid handling old values of the stored bits in the
interrupt routines.

20620d688a serial: don't optimise away baud rate changes when BOTHER is used
The uart_set_termios() function will bail out early without bothering to
touch the hardware, if it decides that nothing "relevant" has changed.
Unfortunately, its idea of "relevant" doesn't include c_[io]speed.  So if
the baud rate bits are BOTHER and you just change the speed, the change
gets optimised away.

This patch makes it ignore the old Bfoo bits in c_cflag and just check
whether c_ispeed and c_ospeed have changed.  Those integers are always set
appropriately for us by set_termios().

85770ffe4f sparsemem: ensure we initialise the node mapping for SPARSEMEM_STATIC
Booting SPARSEMEM on NUMA systems trips a BUG in page_alloc.c:

	Initializing HighMem for node 0 (00038000:00100000)
	Initializing HighMem for node 1 (00100000:001ffe00)
	------------[ cut here ]------------
	kernel BUG at /home/apw/git/linux-2.6/mm/page_alloc.c:456!
	[...]

This occurs because the section to node id mapping is not being
setup correctly during init under SPARSEMEM_STATIC, leading to an
attempt to free pages from all nodes into the zones on node 0.

When the zone_table[] was removed in the following commit, a new
section to node mapping table was introduced:

    commit 89689ae7f9
    [PATCH] Get rid of zone_table[]

That conversion inadvertantly only initialised the node mapping in
SPARSEMEM_EXTREME.  Ensure we initialise the node mapping in
SPARSEMEM_STATIC.

df06846416 eCryptfs: fix lookup error for special files
When ecryptfs_lookup() is called against special files, eCryptfs generates
the following errors because it tries to treat them like regular eCryptfs
files.

Error opening lower file for lower_dentry [0xffff810233a6f150], lower_mnt [0xffff810235bb4c80], and flags [0x8000]
Error opening lower_file to read header region
Error attempting to read the [user.ecryptfs] xattr from the lower file; return value = [-95]
Valid metadata not found in header region or xattr region; treating file as unencrypted

For instance, the problem can be reproduced by the steps below.

  # mkdir /root/crypt /mnt/crypt
  # mount -t ecryptfs /root/crypt /mnt/crypt
  # mknod /mnt/crypt/c0 c 0 0
  # umount /mnt/crypt
  # mount -t ecryptfs /root/crypt /mnt/crypt
  # ls -l /mnt/crypt

This patch fixes it by adding a check similar to directories and
symlinks.

18166c1a50 PCI: Run k8t_sound_hostbridge quirk only when needed
The k8t_sound_hostbridge PCI quick fires on my motherboard (Jetway
K8M8MS) while it shouldn't: the on-board sound chip is not disabled
and is working just fine. Looking at the code, I see that we are
running the quirk for two distinct register values (0x88 and 0xc8)
and then clear bit 6 (0x40). However value 0x88 already has bit 6
cleared so this is a no-op. This is what happens on my board. Thus I
believe that the quirk should only be run for register value 0xc8.

Ok, lets kill the message. As Alois Nešpor also saw, that's fixed up by Yenta,
so PCI does not have to warn about it. PCI could still warn about it if
is_cardbus is 0 in that instance of pci_scan_bridge(), but so far I have
not seen a report where this would have been the case so I think we can
spare the kernel of that check (removes ~300 lines of asm) unless debugging
is done.

History: The whole check was added in the days before we had the fixup
for this in Yenta and pci=assign-busses was the only way to get CardBus
cards detected on many (not all) of the machines which give this warning.

In theory, there could be cases when this warning would be triggered and
it's not cardbus, then the warning should still apply, but I think this
should only be the case when working on a completely broken PCI setup,
but one may have already enabled the debug code in drivers/pci and the
patched check would then trigger.

I do not sign this off yet because it's completely untested so far, but
everyone is free to test it (with the #ifdef DEBUG replaced by #if 1 and
pr_debug( changed to printk(.

We may also dump the whole check (remove everything within the #ifdef from
the source) if that's perferred.

On Alois Nešpor's machine this would then (only when debugging) this message:

"PCI: Bus #0b (-#0e) is partially hidden behind transparent bridge #0a (-#0b)"

"partially" should be in the message on his machine because #0b of #0b-#0e 
is reachable behind #0a-#0b, but not #0c-#0e.

But that differentiation is now moot anyway because the fixup in Yenta takes
care of it as far as I could see so far, which means that unless somebody
is debugging a totally broken PCI setup, this message is not needed anymore,
not even for debugging PCI.


Ok, here the patch with the following changes:

* Refined to say that the bus is only partially hidden when the parent
  bus numbers are not totally way off (outside of) the child bus range
* remove the reference to pci=assign-busses and the plea to report it

We could add a pure source code-only comment to keep a reference to
pci=assign-busses the in case when this is triggered by someone who
is debugging the cause of this message and looking the way to solve it.

4e68fc97b1 PCI: quirk_e100_interrupt() called too early
quirk_e100_interrupts() is called after PCI controller is initialized
and before PCI bus enumeration is performed. On some powerpc platforms
which modify PCI controller configuration and set different MEM and IO
windows than those set by firmware quirk_e100_interrupt() is causing
kernel panic as it tries to read from device BAR0 offets which at this
time points to a invalid PCI window (set by firmware).

This patch delays the quirk_100_interrupt() to pci_fixup_final phase,
which happens after bus enumeration and before PCI enable and
device driver initialization.
