include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

2010-03-30T13:02:32+00:00

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

qeth: change checksumming default for HiperSockets

2010-03-10T15:32:26+00:00

Deactivate inbound checksumming on HiperSocket is a valid but
dangerous optimization in case the frame is routed from an OSA
network to an HiperSockets network. To go for sure we change the
default to software checksumming.

qeth: no recovery after layer mismatch (z/VM NICs)

2010-03-10T15:32:26+00:00

Depending on their definition in z/VM, virtual devices for z/VM
VSWITCH or GuestLAN must be configured either in layer2 or in
layer3 mode. If qeth detects a layer mismatch, device activation
fails. Trying to recover from this error cannot help; thus
scheduling a recovery should be avoided.
In addition, since recovery is forbidden during online setting of
a qeth device, existence of its network device is guaranteed for all
dev_close() calls in qeth. The corresponding checks can be removed.

qeth: set promisc off after trace disabling failure

2010-03-10T15:32:25+00:00

If HiperSockets Network Traffic Analyzer is switched off, but trace
disabling fails somehow, the qeth driver does not switch off its
promisc mode status. A following sniffer reactivation fails, since
qeth does not see a need to reenable tracing.
At the same time the code analyzing results of trace commands is
restructured.

qeth: l3 send dhcp in non pass thru mode

2010-03-10T15:32:25+00:00

dhcp frames are valid IPv4 packets so there is no need to send them
in pass thru mode. This allows dhcp packets to pass HiperSockets.
Also the dhcp release frame is send out correctly with this patch.

[S390] smsgiucv_app: deliver z/VM CP special messages (SMSG) as uevents

2010-03-08T11:26:28+00:00

The smsgiucv_app driver registers a callback with the smsgiucv driver
to receive z/VM CP special messages (SMSG) starting with "APP".

When the callback is called for special messages, the driver creates
an uevent for the received message.  The uevent consists of additional
environment data containing the message prefix ("APP"), message sender,
and message content.

udev rules can be used to trigger application specific actions through
matching the content or sender of the special message.
