The "flags" member of "struct wait_queue_t" is used in several places in
the kernel code without beeing initialized by init_wait().  "flags" is
used in bitwise operations.

If "flags" not initialized then unexpected behaviour may take place.
Incorrect flags might used later in code.

Added initialization of "wait_queue_t.flags" with zero value into
"init_wait".

[ The bit we care about does end up being initialized by both
   prepare_to_wait() and add_to_wait_queue(), so this doesn't seem to
   cause actual bugs, but is definitely the right thing to do -Linus ]

<title>wait_event_interruptible_locked() interface</title>

<id>22c43c81a51e05f61e90445ceb59d486c12fd921</id>
<content type='text'>
New wait_event_interruptible{,_exclusive}_locked{,_irq} macros added.
They work just like versions without _locked* suffix but require the
wait queue's lock to be held.  Also __wake_up_locked() is now exported
as to pair it with the above macros.

The use case of this new facility is when one uses wait queue's lock
to  protect a data structure.  This may be advantageous if the
structure needs to be protected by a spinlock anyway.  In particular,
with additional spinlock the following code has to be used to wait
for a condition:

spin_lock(&amp;data.lock);
...
for (ret = 0; !ret &amp;&amp; !(condition); ) {
	spin_unlock(&amp;data.lock);
	ret = wait_event_interruptible(data.wqh, (condition));
	spin_lock(&amp;data.lock);
}
...
spin_unlock(&amp;data.lock);

This looks bizarre plus wait_event_interruptible() locks the wait
queue's lock anyway so there is a unlock+lock sequence where it could
be avoided.

To avoid those problems and benefit from wait queue's lock, a code
similar to the following should be used:

/* Waiting */
spin_lock(&amp;data.wqh.lock);
...
ret = wait_event_interruptible_locked(data.wqh, (condition));
...
spin_unlock(&amp;data.wqh.lock);

/* Waiting exclusively */
spin_lock(&amp;data.whq.lock);
...
ret = wait_event_interruptible_exclusive_locked(data.whq, (condition));
...
spin_unlock(&amp;data.whq.lock);

/* Waking up */
spin_lock(&amp;data.wqh.lock);
...
wake_up_locked(&amp;data.wqh);
...
spin_unlock(&amp;data.wqh.lock);

When spin_lock_irq() is used matching versions of macros need to be
used (*_locked_irq()).

epoll should not touch flags in wait_queue_t. This patch introduces a new
function __add_wait_queue_exclusive(), for the users, who use wait queue as a
LIFO queue.

__add_wait_queue_tail_exclusive() is introduced too instead of
add_wait_queue_exclusive_locked(). remove_wait_queue_locked() is removed, as
it is a duplicate of __remove_wait_queue(), disliked by users, and with less
users.

Give waitqueue spinlocks their own lockdep classes when they
are initialised from init_waitqueue_head().  This means that
struct wait_queue::func functions can operate other waitqueues.

This is used by CacheFiles to catch the page from a backing fs
being unlocked and to wake up another thread to take a copy of
it.

<title>net: Avoid extra wakeups of threads blocked in wait_for_packet()</title>

<id>bf368e4e70cd4e0f880923c44e95a4273d725ab4</id>
<content type='text'>
In 2.6.25 we added UDP mem accounting.

This unfortunatly added a penalty when a frame is transmitted, since
we have at TX completion time to call sock_wfree() to perform necessary
memory accounting. This calls sock_def_write_space() and utimately
scheduler if any thread is waiting on the socket.
Thread(s) waiting for an incoming frame was scheduled, then had to sleep
again as event was meaningless.

(All threads waiting on a socket are using same sk_sleep anchor)

This adds lot of extra wakeups and increases latencies, as noted
by Christoph Lameter, and slows down softirq handler.

Reference : http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&amp;m=124060437012283&amp;w=2 

Fortunatly, Davide Libenzi recently added concept of keyed wakeups
into kernel, and particularly for sockets (see commit
37e5540b3c9d838eb20f2ca8ea2eb8072271e403 
epoll keyed wakeups: make sockets use keyed wakeups)

Davide goal was to optimize epoll, but this new wakeup infrastructure
can help non epoll users as well, if they care to setup an appropriate
handler.

This patch introduces new DEFINE_WAIT_FUNC() helper and uses it
in wait_for_packet(), so that only relevant event can wakeup a thread
blocked in this function.

Trace of function calls from bnx2 TX completion bnx2_poll_work() is :
__kfree_skb()
 skb_release_head_state()
  sock_wfree()
   sock_def_write_space()
    __wake_up_sync_key()
     __wake_up_common()
      receiver_wake_function() : Stops here since thread is waiting for an INPUT

'777c6c5 wait: prevent exclusive waiter starvation' made
__wake_up_common() global to be used from abort_exclusive_wait().

It was needed to do a wake-up with the waitqueue lock held while
passing down a key to the wake-up function.

Since '4ede816 epoll keyed wakeups: add __wake_up_locked_key() and
__wake_up_sync_key()' there is an appropriate wrapper for this case:
__wake_up_locked_key().

Use it here and make __wake_up_common() private to the scheduler
again.

Introduce new wakeup macros that allow passing an event mask to the wakeup
targets.  They exactly mimic their non-_poll() counterpart, with the added
event mask passing capability.  I did add only the ones currently
requested, avoiding the _nr() and _all() for the moment.
