2008-05-25Remove argument from open_softirq which is always NULLCarlos R. Mafra
As git-grep shows, open_softirq() is always called with the last argument being NULL block/blk-core.c: open_softirq(BLOCK_SOFTIRQ, blk_done_softirq, NULL); kernel/hrtimer.c: open_softirq(HRTIMER_SOFTIRQ, run_hrtimer_softirq, NULL); kernel/rcuclassic.c: open_softirq(RCU_SOFTIRQ, rcu_process_callbacks, NULL); kernel/rcupreempt.c: open_softirq(RCU_SOFTIRQ, rcu_process_callbacks, NULL); kernel/sched.c: open_softirq(SCHED_SOFTIRQ, run_rebalance_domains, NULL); kernel/softirq.c: open_softirq(TASKLET_SOFTIRQ, tasklet_action, NULL); kernel/softirq.c: open_softirq(HI_SOFTIRQ, tasklet_hi_action, NULL); kernel/timer.c: open_softirq(TIMER_SOFTIRQ, run_timer_softirq, NULL); net/core/dev.c: open_softirq(NET_TX_SOFTIRQ, net_tx_action, NULL); net/core/dev.c: open_softirq(NET_RX_SOFTIRQ, net_rx_action, NULL); This observation has already been made by Matthew Wilcox in June 2002 (http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/linux/linux-kernel/2002-25/0687.html) "I notice that none of the current softirq routines use the data element passed to them." and the situation hasn't changed since them. So it appears we can safely remove that extra argument to save 128 (54) bytes of kernel data (text). Signed-off-by: Carlos R.

If previous window was above representable values of u16, strange things will happen if undo with the truncated value is called for.

So, create two new functions, deviec_create_vargs() and device_create_drvdata() that take this new field. device_create_drvdata() will go away in 2.6.27 as the drvdata field will just be moved to the device_create() call as it should be.

Since 2.6.25 the HID_QUIRK_APPLE_HAS_FN quirk is enabled even for non-laptop Apple keyboards of the Aluminium series. The USB version of these don't need Numlock emulation, like the laptop (and Aluminium Wireless) do, as they have a proper keypad. This patch splits the Numlock emulation for Apple keyboards in a different quirk flag, so that it can be enabled for all the keyboards but the Aluminium USB ones. If the Numlock emulation is enabled for Aluminium USB keyboards, the JKL and UIO keys become the numeric pad, and the rest of the keyboard is disabled, included the key used to disable Numlock. Additionally, these keyboard should not have a Numlock at all, as the Numlock key is instead replaced by the 'Clear' key as usual for Apple USB keyboards.

2008-05-19svcrdma: Simplify RDMA_READ deferral buffer managementTom Tucker
An NFS_WRITE requires a set of RDMA_READ requests to fetch the write data from the client. There are two principal pieces of data that need to be tracked: the list of pages that comprise the completed RPC and the SGE of dma mapped pages to refer to this list of pages. Previously this whole bit was managed as a linked list of contexts with the context containing the page list buried in this list. This patch simplifies this processing by not keeping a linked list, but rather only a pionter from the last submitted RDMA_READ's context to the context that maps the set of pages that describe the RPC. This significantly simplifies this code path. SGE contexts are cleaned up inline in the DTO path instead of at read completion time. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>

2008-05-14per_cpu: fix DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED for modulesEric Dumazet
Current module loader lookups ".data.percpu" ELF section to perform per_cpu relocation. But DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED() uses another section (".data.percpu.shared_aligned"), currently only handled in vmlinux.lds, not by module loader. To correct this problem, instead of adding logic into module loader, or using at build time a module.lds file for all arches to group ".data.percpu.shared_aligned" into ".data.percpu", just use ".data.percpu" for modules. Alignment requirements are correctly handled by ld and module loader.

2008-05-14add match_strlcpy() us it to make v9fs make uname and remotename parsing ↵Markus Armbruster
more robust match_strcpy() is a somewhat creepy function: the caller needs to make sure that the destination buffer is big enough, and when he screws up or forgets, match_strcpy() happily overruns the buffer. There's exactly one customer: v9fs_parse_options(). I believe it currently can't overflow its buffer, but that's not exactly obvious. The source string is a substing of the mount options. The kernel silently truncates those to PAGE_SIZE bytes, including the terminating zero. See compat_sys_mount() and do_mount(). The destination buffer is obtained from __getname(), which allocates from name_cachep, which is initialized by vfs_caches_init() for size PATH_MAX. We're safe as long as PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE. PATH_MAX is 4096. As far as I know, the smallest PAGE_SIZE is also 4096. Here's a patch that makes the code a bit more obviously correct. It doesn't depend on PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.

2008-05-13fuse: add flag to turn on big writesMiklos Szeredi
Prior to 2.6.26 fuse only supported single page write requests. In theory all fuse filesystem should be able support bigger than 4k writes, as there's nothing in the API to prevent it. Unfortunately there's a known case in NTFS-3G where big writes cause filesystem corruption. There could also be other filesystems, where the lack of testing with big write requests would result in bugs. To prevent such problems on a kernel upgrade, disable big writes by default, but let filesystems set a flag to turn it on.

2008-05-13memcg: fix possible panic when CONFIG_MM_OWNER=yKOSAKI Motohiro
When mm destruction happens, we should pass mm_update_next_owner() the old mm. But unfortunately new mm is passed in exec_mmap(). Thus, kernel panic is possible when a multi-threaded process uses exec(). Also, the owner member comment description is wrong. mm->owner does not necessarily point to the thread group leader.

2008-05-13cpumask: remove bitmap_scnprintf_len and cpumask_scnprintf_lenPaul Jackson
They aren't used. They were briefly used as part of some other patches to provide an alternative format for displaying some /proc and /sys cpumasks. They probably should have been removed when those other patches were dropped, in favor of a different solution.

2008-05-12net: Allow netdevices to specify needed head/tailroomJohannes Berg
This patch adds needed_headroom/needed_tailroom members to struct net_device and updates many places that allocate sbks to use them. Not all of them can be converted though, and I'm sure I missed some (I mostly grepped for LL_RESERVED_SPACE) Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-05-12net: Set LL_MAX_HEADER properly for wireless.David S. Miller
Wireless networking, particularly with MESH enabled, has quite strong requirements for link-layer header space. Based upon some numbers and descriptions from Johannes Berg we use 96 (same as AX25) for plain wireless, and with mesh enabled we use 128. In the process, simplify the cpp conditional logic here by ordering the cases by those needing the most space down to those needing the least case. Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-05-12Make 'cond_resched()' nullification depend on PREEMPT_BKLLinus Torvalds
Because it's not correct with a non-preemptable BKL and just causes PREEMPT kernels to have longer latencies than non-PREEMPT ones (which is obviously not the point of it at all). Of course, that config option actually got removed as an option earlier, so for now this basically disables it entirely, but if BKL preemption is ever resurrected it will be a meaningful optimization. And in the meantime, it at least documents the intent of the code, while not doing the wrong thing. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-05-12Fix up 'need_resched()' definitionLinus Torvalds
We should not go through the task pointer to get at the thread info, since it's usually cheaper to just access the thread info directly. So don't make the code look up 'current', when we can just use the thread info accessor functions directly. This generally avoids one level of indirection and tends to work better together with code that also looks at other thread flags (eg preempt_count).
