| 8169bd9 | Eugene Surovegin | 24 November 2005, 22:48:40 UTC | [PATCH] ibm_emac: fix graceful stop timeout handling This patch fixes graceful stop timeout handling in PPC4xx EMAC driver. Currently, when we stop TX/RX channels we just do some number of loops without relying on actual spent time. This has finally bitten me on one of our systems (heavy network traffic during start up, RX channel is stopped several times to configure multicast list). Graceful channel stop can take up to 1 frame time, so I've added device specific timeout counter which depends on current link speed and calls to udelay() to really wait required amount of time before giving up.

I've been able to (finally !) successfully suspend and resume various Mac models, with or without USB mouse plugged, or plugging while asleep, or unplugging while asleep etc... all without a crash. Alan, please verify the UHCI bit I did, I only verified that it builds. It's very simple so I wouldn't expect any issue there. If you aren't confident, then just drop the hunks that change uhci-hcd.c I also made the patch a little bit more "safer" by making sure the store to the interrupt register that disables interrupts is not posted before I set the flag and drop the spinlock. Without this patch, you cannot reliably sleep/wakeup any recent Mac, and I suspect PCs have some more sneaky issues too (they don't frankly crash with machine checks because x86 tend to silently swallow PCI errors but that won't last afaik, at least PCI Express will blow up in those situations, but the USB code may still misbehave).

| 5bd0190 | David Gibson | 30 November 2005, 03:34:32 UTC | [PATCH] Fix crash when ptrace poking hugepage areas set_page_dirty() will not cope with being handed a page * which is part of a compound page, but not the master page in that compound page. This case can occur via access_process_vm() if you attemp to write to another process's hugepage memory area using ptrace() (causing an oops or hang). This patch fixes the bug by only calling set_page_dirty() from access_process_vm() if the page is not a compound page. We already use a similar fix in bio_set_pages_dirty() for the case of direct io to hugepages.

| 18955cf | Mike Stroyan | 30 November 2005, 00:12:55 UTC | [IPV4] tcp/route: Another look at hash table sizes The tcp_ehash hash table gets too big on systems with really big memory. It is worse on systems with pages larger than 4KB. It wastes memory that could be better used. It also makes the netstat command slow because reading /proc/net/tcp and /proc/net/tcp6 needs to go through the full hash table. The default value should not be larger for larger page sizes. It seems that the effect of page size is an unintended error dating back a long time. I also wonder if the default value really should be a larger fraction of memory for systems with more memory. While systems with really big ram can afford more space for hash tables, it is not clear to me that they benefit from increasing the allocation ratio for this table. The amount of memory allocated is determined by net/ipv4/tcp.c:tcp_init and mm/page_alloc.c:alloc_large_system_hash. tcp_init calls alloc_large_system_hash passing parameters- bucketsize=sizeof(struct tcp_ehash_bucket) numentries=thash_entries scale=(num_physpages >= 128 * 1024) ? (25-PAGE_SHIFT) : (27-PAGE_SHIFT) limit=0 On i386, PAGE_SHIFT is 12 for a page size of 4K On ia64, PAGE_SHIFT defaults to 14 for a page size of 16K The num_physpages test above makes the allocation take a larger fraction of the total memory on systems with larger memory. The threshold size for a i386 system is 512MB. For an ia64 system with 16KB pages the threshold is 2GB. For smaller memory systems- On i386, scale = (27 - 12) = 15 On ia64, scale = (27 - 14) = 13 For larger memory systems- On i386, scale = (25 - 12) = 13 On ia64, scale = (25 - 14) = 11 For the rest of this discussion, I'll just track the larger memory case. The default behavior has numentries=thash_entries=0, so the allocated size is determined by either scale or by the default limit of 1/16 of total memory. In alloc_large_system_hash- | numentries = (flags & HASH_HIGHMEM) ? nr_all_pages : nr_kernel_pages; | numentries += (1UL << (20 - PAGE_SHIFT)) - 1; | numentries >>= 20 - PAGE_SHIFT; | numentries <<= 20 - PAGE_SHIFT; At this point, numentries is pages for all of memory, rounded up to the nearest megabyte boundary. | /* limit to 1 bucket per 2^scale bytes of low memory */ | if (scale > PAGE_SHIFT) | numentries >>= (scale - PAGE_SHIFT); | else | numentries <<= (PAGE_SHIFT - scale); On i386, numentries >>= (13 - 12), so numentries is 1/8196 of bytes of total memory. On ia64, numentries <<= (14 - 11), so numentries is 1/2048 of bytes of total memory. | log2qty = long_log2(numentries); | | do { | size = bucketsize << log2qty; bucketsize is 16, so size is 16 times numentries, rounded down to a power of two. On i386, size is 1/512 of bytes of total memory. On ia64, size is 1/128 of bytes of total memory. For smaller systems the results are On i386, size is 1/2048 of bytes of total memory. On ia64, size is 1/512 of bytes of total memory. The large page effect can be removed by just replacing the use of PAGE_SHIFT with a constant of 12 in the calls to alloc_large_system_hash. That makes them more like the other uses of that function from fs/inode.c and fs/dcache.c Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> | 30 November 2005, 00:12:55 UTC |
