2008-05-08Fix drivers/media build for modular buildsIngo Molnar
Fix allmodconfig build bug introduced in latest -git by commit 7c91f0624a9 ("V4L/DVB(7767): Move tuners to common/tuners"): LD kernel/built-in.o LD drivers/built-in.o ld: drivers/media/built-in.o: No such file: No such file or directory which happens if all media drivers are modular: http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/config-Wed_Apr_30_09_24_48_CEST_2008.bad In that case there's no obj-y rule connecting all the built-in.o files and the link tree breaks. The fix is to add a guaranteed obj-y rule for the core vmlinux to build.

2008-05-08Fix cpuset sched_relax_domain_level control filePaul Menage
Due to a merge conflict, the sched_relax_domain_level control file was marked as being handled by cpuset_read/write_u64, but the code to handle it was actually in cpuset_common_file_read/write. Since the value being written/read is in fact a signed integer, it should be treated as such; this patch adds cpuset_read/write_s64 functions, and uses them to handle the sched_relax_domain_level file. With this patch, the sched_relax_domain_level can be read and written, and the correct contents seen/updated.

2008-05-07IB/ipath: Fix SDMA error recovery in absence of link status changeJohn Gregor
What's fixed: in ipath_cancel_sends() We need to unconditionally set ABORTING. So, swap the tests so the set_bit() isn't shadowed by the &&. If we've disarmed the piobufs, then we need to unconditionally set DISARMED. So, move it out from the overly protective if at the bottom. in sdma_abort_task() Abort_task was written knowing that the SDMA engine would always be reset (and restarted) on error. A recent change broke that fundamental assumption by taking the restart portion and making it conditional on a link status change. But, SDMA can go boom without a link status change in some conditions. Signed-off-by: John Gregor <john.gregor@qlogic.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2008-05-07IB/ipath: Need to always request and handle PIO avail interruptsDave Olson
Now that we always use PIO for vl15 on 7220, we could get stuck forever if we happened to run out of PIO buffers from the verbs code, because the setup code wouldn't run; the interrupt was also ignored if SDMA was supported. We also have to reduce the pio update threshold if we have fewer kernel buffers than the existing threshold. Clean up the initialization a bit to get ordering safer and more sensible, and use the existing ipath_chg_kernavail call to do init, rather than doing it separately. Drop unnecessary clearing of pio buffer on pio parity error. Drop incorrect updating of pioavailshadow when exitting freeze mode (software state may not match chip state if buffer has been allocated and not yet written). If we couldn't get a kernel buffer for a while, make sure we are in sync with hardware, mainly to handle the exitting freeze case.

2008-05-07IB/ipath: Fix count of packets received by kernelMichael Albaugh
The loop in ipath_kreceive() that processes packets increments the loop-index 'i' once too often, because the exit condition does not depend on it, and is checked after the increment. By adding a check for !last to the iterator in the for loop, we correct that in a way that is not so likely to be re-broken by changes in the loop body.

2008-05-07block: optimize generic_unplug_device()Jens Axboe
Original patch from Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Mike Anderson was doing an OLTP benchmark on a computer with 48 physical disks mapped to one logical device via device mapper. He found that there was a slowdown on request_queue->lock in function generic_unplug_device. The slowdown is caused by the fact that when some code calls unplug on the device mapper, device mapper calls unplug on all physical disks. These unplug calls take the lock, find that the queue is already unplugged, release the lock and exit. With the below patch, performance of the benchmark was increased by 18% (the whole OLTP application, not just block layer microbenchmarks). So I'm submitting this patch for upstream. I think the patch is correct, because when more threads call simultaneously plug and unplug, it is unspecified, if the queue is or isn't plugged (so the patch can't make this worse). And the caller that plugged the queue should unplug it anyway. (if it doesn't, there's 3ms timeout).

2008-05-07vfs: splice remove_suid() cleanupMiklos Szeredi
generic_file_splice_write() duplicates remove_suid() just because it doesn't hold i_mutex. But it grabs i_mutex inside splice_from_pipe() anyway, so this is rather pointless.

2008-05-07cfq-iosched: fix RCU race in the cfq io_context destructor handlingJens Axboe
put_io_context() drops the RCU read lock before calling into cfq_dtor(), however we need to hold off freeing there before grabbing and dereferencing the first object on the list. So extend the rcu_read_lock() scope to cover the calling of cfq_dtor(), and optimize cfq_free_io_context() to use a new variant for call_for_each_cic() that assumes the RCU read lock is already held.
