However, there was a minor difference between the code in lgh06xf and dvb-pll, which caused a regression in b2c2-flexcop devices using the LG-H06xF NIM. dvb-pll will probe for the presence of an i2c pll chip by performing a single byte read, the lgh06xf driver did not do this. Unfortunately, the code in flexcop-i2c.c does not currently support 1 byte or 0 byte reads as a probe. Such probes with the current code will always fail. In order to work around this problem, and restore proper functionality of the Airstar HD5000 device, this hack was created to make the probe appear to succeed. The single byte read in dvb_pll_attach is the only place where such a probe would ever occur, so this change is safe, and will not affect any other devices. Of course, if one knew how to actually perform the read operation, it would be better to go that route. In the meantime, however, we must apply this workaround, in order to prevent the regression that causes tuning to fail on the Airstar HD5000 ATSC device. Thanks to Jarod Wilson, who had originally reported this regression, and to Geoffrey Hausheer, whose original workaround patch led us to find the actual cause of the problem.

This allows the rq clock to work around TSC-stops-in-C2, TSC-gets-corrupted-in-C3 type of problems. ( Besides the scheduler's statistics this also benefits blktrace and printk-timestamps as well. ) Furthermore, the precise before-C2/C3-sleep and after-C2/C3-wakeup callbacks allow the scheduler to get out the most of the period where the CPU has a reliable TSC.

78c4af0 | Mikael Pettersson | 18 August 2007, 20:58:53 UTC | pata_pdc2027x: PLL detection fixes Previously I reported that the pata_pdc2027x PLL detection changes in kernel 2.6.22 broke the driver on my PowerMac: >pata_pdc2027x: Invalid PLL input clock 1691742kHz, give up! This is followed by a number of errors and speed reduction steps on the affected ports. There are two bugs in pata_pdc2027x's PLL detection code: 1. The PLL counter's start value is read before the chip is put in "test mode". Outside of test mode the counter is halted, and on the PowerMac the counter is zero because the chip hasn't been initialised by its BIOS. The fix is to move the read of the start value to after test mode is started, but before the mdelay() in test mode. This also improves the precision of the PLL detection. 2. The code to compute the number of PLL decrements during the mdelay() in test mode fails to consider that the PLL counter only is 30 bits wide. If there is a wraparound, it will compute an incorrect and much too large value. On the PowerMac, the start count is zero, the end count is a large 30-bit value, so wraparound occurs and an out of bounds PLL clock is detected. The fix is to mask the (start - end) computation to 30 bits. While debugging this I also noticed that pdc_read_counter() reads the two halves of the 30-bit PLL counter as 16-bit values, and then combines them as if the halves only are 15 bits wide. To avoid confusion, the halves should be read as 15-bit values. This patch implements all three changes. It fixes the PLL detection failure on my PowerMac, and doesn't cause any regressions on an x86 with an identical card.

b377fd3 | Mel Gorman | 22 August 2007, 21:02:05 UTC | Apply memory policies to top two highest zones when highest zone is ZONE_MOVABLE The NUMA layer only supports NUMA policies for the highest zone. When ZONE_MOVABLE is configured with kernelcore=, the the highest zone becomes ZONE_MOVABLE. The result is that policies are only applied to allocations like anonymous pages and page cache allocated from ZONE_MOVABLE when the zone is used. This patch applies policies to the two highest zones when the highest zone is ZONE_MOVABLE. As ZONE_MOVABLE consists of pages from the highest "real" zone, it's always functionally equivalent. The patch has been tested on a variety of machines both NUMA and non-NUMA covering x86, x86_64 and ppc64. No abnormal results were seen in kernbench, tbench, dbench or hackbench. It passes regression tests from the numactl package with and without kernelcore= once numactl tests are patched to wait for vmstat counters to update. akpm: this is the nasty hack to fix NUMA mempolicies in the presence of ZONE_MOVABLE and kernelcore= in 2.6.23. Christoph says "For .24 either merge the mobility or get the other solution that Mel is working on. That solution would only use a single zonelist per node and filter on the fly. That may help performance and also help to make memory policies work better."

1864f7b | Ian Kent | 22 August 2007, 21:01:54 UTC | autofs4: deadlock during create Due to inconsistent locking in the VFS between calls to lookup and revalidate deadlock can occur in the automounter. The inconsistency is that the directory inode mutex is held for both lookup and revalidate calls when called via lookup_hash whereas it is held only for lookup during a path walk. Consequently, if the mutex is held during a call to revalidate autofs4 can't release the mutex to callback the daemon as it can't know whether it owns the mutex. This situation happens when a process tries to create a directory within an automount and a second process also tries to create the same directory between the lookup and the mkdir. Since the first process has dropped the mutex for the daemon callback, the second process takes it during revalidate leading to deadlock between the autofs daemon and the second process when the daemon tries to create the mount point directory. After spending quite a bit of time trying to resolve this on more than one occassion, using rather complex and ulgy approaches, it turns out that just delaying the hashing of the dentry until the create operation works fine.

f4768ff | Jeff Dike | 22 August 2007, 21:01:53 UTC | uml: fix previous request size limit fix The previous patch which limited the number of sectors in a single request to a COWed device was correct in concept, but the limit was implemented in the wrong place. By putting it in ubd_add, it covered the cases where the COWing was specified on the command line. However, when the command line only has the COW file specified, the fact that it's a COW file isn't known until it's opened, so the limit is missed in these cases. This patch moves the sector limit from ubd_add to ubd_open_dev.

If the caller doesn't belong to this thread group, we can't handle __SI_TIMER case properly anyway. Perhaps we should forbid the cross-process signalfd usage and convert ctx->tsk to ctx->sighand.

The existing memory check code has a hard coded assumption that this does not happen as does the security code. As the correct mm is known we pass the mm to the security method and the helper function. A new security test is added for the case where we need to pass the mm and the existing one is modified to pass current->mm to avoid the need to change large amounts of code.

c661b07 | Andy Whitcroft | 22 August 2007, 21:01:26 UTC | synchronous lumpy reclaim: wait for page writeback when directly reclaiming contiguous areas Lumpy reclaim works by selecting a lead page from the LRU list and then selecting pages for reclaim from the order-aligned area of pages. In the situation were all pages in that region are inactive and not referenced by any process over time, it works well. In the situation where there is even light load on the system, the pages may not free quickly. Out of a area of 1024 pages, maybe only 950 of them are freed when the allocation attempt occurs because lumpy reclaim returned early. This patch alters the behaviour of direct reclaim for large contiguous blocks. The first attempt to call shrink_page_list() is asynchronous but if it fails, the pages are submitted a second time and the calling process waits for the IO to complete. This may stall allocators waiting for contiguous memory but that should be expected behaviour for high-order users. It is preferable behaviour to potentially queueing unnecessary areas for IO. Note that kswapd will not stall in this fashion.

e9187bd | Andy Whitcroft | 22 August 2007, 21:01:25 UTC | synchronous lumpy reclaim: ensure we count pages transitioning inactive via clear_active_flags As pointed out by Mel when reclaim is applied at higher orders a significant amount of IO may be started. As this takes finite time to drain reclaim will consider more areas than ultimatly needed to satisfy the request. This leads to more reclaim than strictly required and reduced success rates. I was able to confirm Mel's test results on systems locally. These show that even under light load the success rates drop off far more than expected. Testing with a modified version of his patch (which follows) I was able to allocate almost all of ZONE_MOVABLE with a near idle system. I ran 5 test passes sequentially following system boot (the system has 29 hugepages in ZONE_MOVABLE): 2.6.23-rc1 11 8 6 7 7 sync_lumpy 28 28 29 29 26 These show that although hugely better than the near 0% success normally expected we can only allocate about a 1/4 of the zone. Using synchronous reclaim for these allocations we get close to 100% as expected. I have also run our standard high order tests and these show no regressions in allocation success rates at rest, and some significant improvements under load. This patch: We are transitioning pages from active to inactive in clear_active_flags, those need counting as PGDEACTIVATE vm events.
