2010-04-11Revert "tcp: Set CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY in tcp_init_nondata_skb"David S. Miller
This reverts commit 2626419ad5be1a054d350786b684b41d23de1538. It causes regressions for people with IGB cards. Connection requests don't complete etc. The true cause of the issue is still not known, but we should sort this out in net-next-2.6 not net-2.6 Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-04-09radix_tree_tag_get() is not as safe as the docs make out [ver #2]David Howells
radix_tree_tag_get() is not safe to use concurrently with radix_tree_tag_set() or radix_tree_tag_clear(). The problem is that the double tag_get() in radix_tree_tag_get(): if (!tag_get(node, tag, offset)) saw_unset_tag = 1; if (height == 1) { int ret = tag_get(node, tag, offset); may see the value change due to the action of set/clear. RCU is no protection against this as no pointers are being changed, no nodes are being replaced according to a COW protocol - set/clear alter the node directly. The documentation in linux/radix-tree.h, however, says that radix_tree_tag_get() is an exception to the rule that "any function modifying the tree or tags (...) must exclude other modifications, and exclude any functions reading the tree". The problem is that the next statement in radix_tree_tag_get() checks that the tag doesn't vary over time: BUG_ON(ret && saw_unset_tag); This has been seen happening in FS-Cache: https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-cachefs/2010-April/msg00013.html To this end, remove the BUG_ON() from radix_tree_tag_get() and note in various comments that the value of the tag may change whilst the RCU read lock is held, and thus that the return value of radix_tree_tag_get() may not be relied upon unless radix_tree_tag_set/clear() and radix_tree_delete() are excluded from running concurrently with it.

As suggested by Linus, fix up kmem_ptr_validate() to handle non-kernel pointers more graciously.

2010-04-09[S390] increase default size of vmalloc areaMartin Schwidefsky
The default size of the vmalloc area is currently 1 GB. The memory resource controller uses about 10 MB of vmalloc space per gigabyte of memory. That turns a system with more than ~100 GB memory unbootable with the default vmalloc size. It costs us nothing to increase the default size to some more adequate value, e.g. 128 GB.

2010-04-09[S390] s390: disable change bit overrideChristian Borntraeger
commit 6a985c6194017de2c062916ad1cd00dee0302c40 ([S390] s390: use change recording override for kernel mapping) deactivated the change bit recording for the kernel mapping to improve the performance. This works most of the time, but there are cases (e.g. kernel runs in home space, futex atomic compare xcmg) where we modify user memory with the kernel mapping instead of the user mapping. Instead of fixing these cases, this patch just deactivates change bit override to avoid future problems with other kernel code that might use the kernel mapping for user memory.

2010-04-09[S390] fix io_return critical section cleanupMartin Schwidefsky
If a machine check interrupts the io interrupt handler on one of the instructions between io_return and io_leave the critical section cleanup code will move the return psw to io_work_loop. By doing that the switch from the asynchronous interrupt stack to the process stack is skipped. If e.g. TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set things break because the scheduler is called with the asynchronous interrupts stack. Moving the psw back to io_return instead fixes the problem.

2010-04-09cfq-iosched: Fix the incorrect timeslice accounting with forced_dispatchDivyesh Shah
When CFQ dispatches requests forcefully due to a barrier or changing iosched, it runs through all cfqq's dispatching requests and then expires each queue. However, it does not activate a cfqq before flushing its IOs resulting in using stale values for computing slice_used. This patch fixes it by calling activate queue before flushing reuqests from each queue. This is useful mostly for barrier requests because when the iosched is changing it really doesnt matter if we have incorrect accounting since we're going to break down all structures anyway. We also now expire the current timeslice before moving on with the dispatch to accurately account slice used for that cfqq.

2010-04-08tcp: Set CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY in tcp_init_nondata_skbDavid S. Miller
Back in commit 04a0551c87363f100b04d28d7a15a632b70e18e7 ("loopback: Drop obsolete ip_summed setting") we stopped setting CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY in the loopback xmit. This is because such a setting was a lie since it implies that the checksum field of the packet is properly filled in. Instead what happens normally is that CHECKSUM_PARTIAL is set and skb->csum is calculated as needed. But this was only happening for TCP data packets (via the skb->ip_summed assignment done in tcp_sendmsg()). It doesn't happen for non-data packets like ACKs etc. Fix this by setting skb->ip_summed in the common non-data packet constructor. It already is setting skb->csum to zero. But this reminds us that we still have things like ip_output.c's ip_dev_loopback_xmit() which sets skb->ip_summed to the value CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY, which Herbert's patch teaches us is not valid. So we'll have to address that at some point too. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-04-08libata: Fix accesses at LBA28 boundary (old bug, but nasty) (v2)Mark Lord
Most drives from Seagate, Hitachi, and possibly other brands, do not allow LBA28 access to sector number 0x0fffffff (2^28 - 1). So instead use LBA48 for such accesses. This bug could bite a lot of systems, especially when the user has taken care to align partitions to 4KB boundaries. On misaligned systems, it is less likely to be encountered, since a 4KB read would end at 0x10000000 rather than at 0x0fffffff.
