db677ff Revert "x86: Side-step lguest problem by only building cmpxchg8b_emu for pre-Pentium" This reverts commit ae1b22f6e46c03cede7cea234d0bf2253b4261cf. As Linus said in 982d007a6ee: "There was something really messy about cmpxchg8b and clone CPU's, so if you enable it on other CPUs later, do it carefully." This breaks lguest for those configs, but we can fix that by emulating if we have to.

e04ed38 sparc64: Fix Niagara2 perf event handling.

In bbc_envctrl_init() we have to unlink the fan and temp instances from the lists because our caller is going to free up the 'bp' object if we return an error.

846f997 sysfs: Add lockdep annotations for the sysfs active reference Holding locks over device_del -> kobject_del -> sysfs_deactivate can cause deadlocks if those same locks are grabbed in sysfs show or store methods. The I model s_active count + completion as a sleeping read/write lock. I describe to lockdep sysfs_get_active as a read_trylock, sysfs_put_active as a read_unlock, and sysfs_deactivate as a write_lock and write_unlock pair. This seems to capture the essence for purposes of finding deadlocks, and in my testing gives finds real issues and ignores non-issues. This brings us back to holding locks over kobject_del is a problem that ideally we should find a way of addressing, but at least lockdep can tell us about the problems instead of requiring developers to debug rare strange system deadlocks, that happen when sysfs files are removed while being written to.

6486cda [S390] qdio: convert global statistics to per-device stats Revamp the qdio performance statistics and move them from procfs to debugfs using the seq_file interface. Since the statistics are not intended for the general user the removal of /proc/qdio_perf should not surprise anyone. The per device statistics are disabled by default, writing 1 to /<debugfs mountpoint>/qdio/<device bus ID>/statistics enables the statistics for the given device.

c674905 reiserfs: Fix unwanted recursive reiserfs lock in reiserfs_unlink() reiserfs_unlink() may or may not be called under the reiserfs lock. But it also takes the reiserfs lock and can then acquire it recursively which leads to do_journal_begin_r() that fails to relax the reiserfs lock before grabbing the journal mutex, creating an unexpected lock inversion. We need to ensure reiserfs_unlink() won't get the reiserfs lock recursively using reiserfs_write_lock_once(). This fixes the following warning that precedes a lock inversion report (reiserfs lock <-> journal mutex). ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at fs/reiserfs/lock.c:95 reiserfs_lock_check_recursive+0x3a/0x50() Hardware name: MS-7418 Unwanted recursive reiserfs lock!

3f14fea reiserfs: Relax lock before open xattr dir in reiserfs_xattr_set_handle() We call xattr_lookup() from reiserfs_xattr_get(). We then hold the reiserfs lock when we grab the i_mutex. But later, we may relax the reiserfs lock, creating dependency inversion between both locks.

27026a0 reiserfs: Fix reiserfs lock <-> i_mutex dependency inversion on xattr While deleting the xattrs of an inode, we hold the reiserfs lock and grab the inode->i_mutex of the targeted inode and the root private xattr directory. Later on, we may relax the reiserfs lock for various reasons, this creates inverted dependencies. We can remove the reiserfs lock -> i_mutex dependency by relaxing the former before calling open_xa_dir(). This is fine because the lookup and creation of xattr private directories done in open_xa_dir() are covered by the targeted inode mutexes. And deeper operations in the tree are still done under the write lock.

c4a62ca reiserfs: Warn on lock relax if taken recursively When we relax the reiserfs lock to avoid creating unwanted dependencies against others locks while grabbing these, we want to ensure it has not been taken recursively, otherwise the lock won't be really relaxed. Only its depth will be decreased. The unwanted dependency would then actually happen. To prevent from that, add a reiserfs_lock_check_recursive() call in the places that need it.

0719d34 reiserfs: Fix reiserfs lock <-> i_xattr_sem dependency inversion i_xattr_sem depends on the reiserfs lock. But after we grab i_xattr_sem, we may relax/relock the reiserfs lock while waiting on a freezed filesystem, creating a dependency inversion between the two locks. In order to avoid the i_xattr_sem -> reiserfs lock dependency, let's create a reiserfs_down_read_safe() that acts like reiserfs_mutex_lock_safe(): relax the reiserfs lock while grabbing another lock to avoid undesired dependencies induced by the heivyweight reiserfs lock.

9d0be50 ext4: Calculate metadata requirements more accurately In the past, ext4_calc_metadata_amount(), and its sub-functions ext4_ext_calc_metadata_amount() and ext4_indirect_calc_metadata_amount() badly over-estimated the number of metadata blocks that might be required for delayed allocation blocks. This didn't matter as much when functions which managed the reserved metadata blocks were more aggressive about dropping reserved metadata blocks as delayed allocation blocks were written, but unfortunately they were too aggressive. This was fixed in commit 0637c6f, but as a result the over-estimation by ext4_calc_metadata_amount() would lead to reserving 2-3 times the number of pending delayed allocation blocks as potentially required metadata blocks. So if there are 1 megabytes of blocks which have been not yet been allocation, up to 3 megabytes of space would get reserved out of the user's quota and from the file system free space pool until all of the inode's data blocks have been allocated. This commit addresses this problem by much more accurately estimating the number of metadata blocks that will be required. It will still somewhat over-estimate the number of blocks needed, since it must make a worst case estimate not knowing which physical blocks will be needed, but it is much more accurate than before.

Currently, dump_trace() takes the current bp and starts the callchain from dump_trace() itself. This is wasteful because we need to walk through the entire NMI/DEBUG stack before retrieving the interrupted point. We can fix that by just using the frame pointer from the captured regs.

66f0dc4 mm: move sys_mmap_pgoff from util.c Move sys_mmap_pgoff() from mm/util.c to mm/mmap.c and mm/nommu.c, where we'd expect to find such code: especially now that it contains the MAP_HUGETLB handling. Revert mm/util.c to how it was in 2.6.32. This patch just ignores MAP_HUGETLB in the nommu case, as in 2.6.32, whereas 2.6.33-rc2 reported -ENOSYS. Perhaps validate_mmap_request() should reject it with -EINVAL? Add that later if necessary.

75c85a0 libsrp: fix compile failure commit 45465487897a1c6d508b14b904dc5777f7ec7e04 ("kfifo: move struct kfifo in place") caused a compile failure in ibmvscsitgt.c because it changed a pointer to kfifo in the libsrp.h structure to a direct inclusion without including <linux/kfifo.h>. The fix is simple, just add the include, but how did this happen? This change, introduced at -rc2, hardly looks like a bug fix, and it clearly didn't go through linux-next, which would have picked up this compile failure (it only occurs on ppc because of the ibm virtual scsi target).

0637c6f ext4: Patch up how we claim metadata blocks for quota purposes As reported in Kernel Bugzilla #14936, commit d21cd8f triggered a BUG in the function ext4_da_update_reserve_space() found in fs/ext4/inode.c. The root cause of this BUG() was caused by the fact that ext4_calc_metadata_amount() can severely over-estimate how many metadata blocks will be needed, especially when using direct block-mapped files. In addition, it can also badly *under* estimate how much space is needed, since ext4_calc_metadata_amount() assumes that the blocks are contiguous, and this is not always true. If the application is writing blocks to a sparse file, the number of metadata blocks necessary can be severly underestimated by the functions ext4_da_reserve_space(), ext4_da_update_reserve_space() and ext4_da_release_space(). This was the cause of the dq_claim_space reports found on kerneloops.org. Unfortunately, doing this right means that we need to massively over-estimate the amount of free space needed. So in some cases we may need to force the inode to be written to disk asynchronously in to avoid spurious quota failures. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14936 Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> 30 December 2009, 19:20:45 UTC

So when GART IOMMU isn't detected, agp_amd64_init isn't called. Marin Mitov reported this issue: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=126192729110083&w=2 With this patch, agp_amd64_init() is always called via module_init (the above ifndef is removed). If agp_amd64_init() is called via gart_iommu_init() earlier, agp_amd64_init() finishes without doing anything (when it is called via module_init).
