Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz 9e42237f26 ide: add ide_tf_load() helper
Based on the earlier work by Tejun Heo.

* Add 'tf_flags' field (for taskfile flags) to ide_task_t.

* Add IDE_TFLAG_LBA48 taskfile flag for LBA48 taskfiles.

* Add IDE_TFLAG_NO_SELECT_MASK taskfile flag for __ide_do_rw_disk()
  which doesn't use SELECT_MASK() (looks like a bug but it requires
  some more investigation).

* Split off ide_tf_load() helper from do_rw_taskfile().

* Convert __ide_do_rw_disk() to use ide_tf_load().

There should be no functionality changes caused by this patch.

Arjan van de Ven 6d082592b6 sched: keep total / count stats in addition to the max for
Right now, the linux kernel (with scheduler statistics enabled) keeps track
of the maximum time a process is waiting to be scheduled. While the maximum
is a very useful metric, tracking average and total is equally useful
(at least for latencytop) to figure out the accumulated effect of scheduler
delays. The accumulated effect is important to judge the performance impact
of scheduler tuning/behavior.

Extend group scheduling to also cover the realtime classes. It uses the time
limiting introduced by the previous patch to allow multiple realtime groups.

The hard time limit is required to keep behaviour deterministic.

The algorithms used make the realtime scheduler O(tg), linear scaling wrt the
number of task groups. This is the worst case behaviour I can't seem to get out
of, the avg. case of the algorithms can be improved, I focused on correctness
and worst case.

Use HR-timers (when available) to deliver an accurate preemption tick.

The regular scheduler tick that runs at 1/HZ can be too coarse when nice
level are used. The fairness system will still keep the cpu utilisation 'fair'
by then delaying the task that got an excessive amount of CPU time but try to
minimize this by delivering preemption points spot-on.

The average frequency of this extra interrupt is sched_latency / nr_latency.
Which need not be higher than 1/HZ, its just that the distribution within the

Paul E. McKenney e260be673a Preempt-RCU: implementation
This patch implements a new version of RCU which allows its read-side
critical sections to be preempted. It uses a set of counter pairs
to keep track of the read-side critical sections and flips them
when all tasks exit read-side critical section. The details
of this implementation can be found in this paper -

	http://www.rdrop.com/users/paulmck/RCU/OLSrtRCU.2006.08.11a.pdf

and the article-

	http://lwn.net/Articles/253651/

This patch was developed as a part of the -rt kernel development and
meant to provide better latencies when read-side critical sections of
RCU don't disable preemption.  As a consequence of keeping track of RCU
readers, the readers have a slight overhead (optimizations in the paper).
This implementation co-exists with the "classic" RCU implementations
and can be switched to at compiler.

Also includes RCU tracing summarized in debugfs.

Steven Rostedt cb46984504 sched: RT-balance, add new methods to sched_class
Dmitry Adamushko found that the current implementation of the RT
balancing code left out changes to the sched_setscheduler and
rt_mutex_setprio.

This patch addresses this issue by adding methods to the schedule classes
to handle being switched out of (switched_from) and being switched into
(switched_to) a sched_class. Also a method for changing of priorities
is also added (prio_changed).

This patch also removes some duplicate logic between rt_mutex_setprio and

Gregory Haskins 57d885fea0 sched: add sched-domain roots
We add the notion of a root-domain which will be used later to rescope
global variables to per-domain variables.  Each exclusive cpuset
essentially defines an island domain by fully partitioning the member cpus
from any other cpuset.  However, we currently still maintain some
policy/state as global variables which transcend all cpusets.  Consider,
for instance, rt-overload state.

Whenever a new exclusive cpuset is created, we also create a new
root-domain object and move each cpu member to the root-domain's span.
By default the system creates a single root-domain with all cpus as
members (mimicking the global state we have today).

We add some plumbing for storing class specific data in our root-domain.
Whenever a RQ is switching root-domains (because of repartitioning) we
give each sched_class the opportunity to remove any state from its old
domain and add state to the new one.  This logic doesn't have any clients
yet but it will later in the series.

Gregory Haskins e7693a362e sched: de-SCHED_OTHER-ize the RT path
The current wake-up code path tries to determine if it can optimize the
wake-up to "this_cpu" by computing load calculations.  The problem is that
these calculations are only relevant to SCHED_OTHER tasks where load is king.
For RT tasks, priority is king.  So the load calculation is completely wasted
bandwidth.

Therefore, we create a new sched_class interface to help with
pre-wakeup routing decisions and move the load calculation as a function
of CFS task's class.

Gregory Haskins 73fe6aae84 sched: add RT-balance cpu-weight
Some RT tasks (particularly kthreads) are bound to one specific CPU.
It is fairly common for two or more bound tasks to get queued up at the
same time.  Consider, for instance, softirq_timer and softirq_sched.  A
timer goes off in an ISR which schedules softirq_thread to run at RT50.
Then the timer handler determines that it's time to smp-rebalance the
system so it schedules softirq_sched to run.  So we are in a situation
where we have two RT50 tasks queued, and the system will go into
rt-overload condition to request other CPUs for help.

This causes two problems in the current code:

1) If a high-priority bound task and a low-priority unbounded task queue
   up behind the running task, we will fail to ever relocate the unbounded
   task because we terminate the search on the first unmovable task.

2) We spend precious futile cycles in the fast-path trying to pull
   overloaded tasks over.  It is therefore optimial to strive to avoid the
   overhead all together if we can cheaply detect the condition before
   overload even occurs.

This patch tries to achieve this optimization by utilizing the hamming
weight of the task->cpus_allowed mask.  A weight of 1 indicates that
the task cannot be migrated.  We will then utilize this information to
skip non-migratable tasks and to eliminate uncessary rebalance attempts.

We introduce a per-rq variable to count the number of migratable tasks
that are currently running.  We only go into overload if we have more
than one rt task, AND at least one of them is migratable.

In addition, we introduce a per-task variable to cache the cpus_allowed
weight, since the hamming calculation is probably relatively expensive.
We only update the cached value when the mask is updated which should be
relatively infrequent, especially compared to scheduling frequency
in the fast path.

Srivatsa Vaddagiri 6b2d770026 sched: group scheduler, fix fairness of cpu bandwidth allocation for task groups
The current load balancing scheme isn't good enough for precise
group fairness.

For example: on a 8-cpu system, I created 3 groups as under:

	a = 8 tasks (cpu.shares = 1024)
	b = 4 tasks (cpu.shares = 1024)
	c = 3 tasks (cpu.shares = 1024)

a, b and c are task groups that have equal weight. We would expect each
of the groups to receive 33.33% of cpu bandwidth under a fair scheduler.

This is what I get with the latest scheduler git tree:

Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Col1  | Col2    | Col3  |  Col4
------|---------|-------|-------------------------------------------------------
a     | 277.676 | 57.8% | 54.1%  54.1%  54.1%  54.2%  56.7%  62.2%  62.8% 64.5%
b     | 116.108 | 24.2% | 47.4%  48.1%  48.7%  49.3%
c     |  86.326 | 18.0% | 47.5%  47.9%  48.5%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Explanation of o/p:

Col1 -> Group name
Col2 -> Cumulative execution time (in seconds) received by all tasks of that
	group in a 60sec window across 8 cpus
Col3 -> CPU bandwidth received by the group in the 60sec window, expressed in
        percentage. Col3 data is derived as:
		Col3 = 100 * Col2 / (NR_CPUS * 60)
Col4 -> CPU bandwidth received by each individual task of the group.
		Col4 = 100 * cpu_time_recd_by_task / 60

[I can share the test case that produces a similar o/p if reqd]

The deviation from desired group fairness is as below:

	a = +24.47%
	b = -9.13%
	c = -15.33%

which is quite high.

After the patch below is applied, here are the results:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Col1  | Col2    | Col3  |  Col4
------|---------|-------|-------------------------------------------------------
a     | 163.112 | 34.0% | 33.2%  33.4%  33.5%  33.5%  33.7%  34.4%  34.8% 35.3%
b     | 156.220 | 32.5% | 63.3%  64.5%  66.1%  66.5%
c     | 160.653 | 33.5% | 85.8%  90.6%  91.4%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Deviation from desired group fairness is as below:

	a = +0.67%
	b = -0.83%
	c = +0.17%

which is far better IMO. Most of other runs have yielded a deviation within
+-2% at the most, which is good.

Why do we see bad (group) fairness with current scheuler?
=========================================================

Currently cpu's weight is just the summation of individual task weights.
This can yield incorrect results. For ex: consider three groups as below
on a 2-cpu system:

	CPU0	CPU1
---------------------------
	A (10)  B(5)
		C(5)
---------------------------

Group A has 10 tasks, all on CPU0, Group B and C have 5 tasks each all
of which are on CPU1. Each task has the same weight (NICE_0_LOAD =
1024).

The current scheme would yield a cpu weight of 10240 (10*1024) for each cpu and
the load balancer will think both CPUs are perfectly balanced and won't
move around any tasks. This, however, would yield this bandwidth:

	A = 50%
	B = 25%
	C = 25%

which is not the desired result.

What's changing in the patch?
=============================

	- How cpu weights are calculated when CONFIF_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED is
	  defined (see below)
	- API Change
		- Two tunables introduced in sysfs (under SCHED_DEBUG) to
		  control the frequency at which the load balance monitor
		  thread runs.

The basic change made in this patch is how cpu weight (rq->load.weight) is
calculated. Its now calculated as the summation of group weights on a cpu,
rather than summation of task weights. Weight exerted by a group on a
cpu is dependent on the shares allocated to it and also the number of
tasks the group has on that cpu compared to the total number of
(runnable) tasks the group has in the system.

Let,
	W(K,i)  = Weight of group K on cpu i
	T(K,i)  = Task load present in group K's cfs_rq on cpu i
	T(K)    = Total task load of group K across various cpus
	S(K) 	= Shares allocated to group K
	NRCPUS	= Number of online cpus in the scheduler domain to
	 	  which group K is assigned.

Then,
	W(K,i) = S(K) * NRCPUS * T(K,i) / T(K)

A load balance monitor thread is created at bootup, which periodically
runs and adjusts group's weight on each cpu. To avoid its overhead, two
min/max tunables are introduced (under SCHED_DEBUG) to control the rate
at which it runs.

Fixes from: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>

- don't start the load_balance_monitor when there is only a single cpu.
- rename the kthread because its currently longer than TASK_COMM_LEN

Rafael J. Wysocki 775b64d2b6 PM: Acquire device locks on suspend
This patch reorganizes the way suspend and resume notifications are
sent to drivers.  The major changes are that now the PM core acquires
every device semaphore before calling the methods, and calls to
device_add() during suspends will fail, while calls to device_del()
during suspends will block.

It also provides a way to safely remove a suspended device with the
help of the PM core, by using the device_pm_schedule_removal() callback
introduced specifically for this purpose, and updates two drivers (msr
and cpuid) that need to use it.

Eric Paris c9180a57a9 Security: add get, set, and cloning of superblock security information
Adds security_get_sb_mnt_opts, security_set_sb_mnt_opts, and
security_clont_sb_mnt_opts to the LSM and to SELinux.  This will allow
filesystems to directly own and control all of their mount options if they
so choose.  This interface deals only with option identifiers and strings so
it should generic enough for any LSM which may come in the future.

Filesystems which pass text mount data around in the kernel (almost all of
them) need not currently make use of this interface when dealing with
SELinux since it will still parse those strings as it always has.  I assume
future LSM's would do the same.  NFS is the primary FS which does not use
text mount data and thus must make use of this interface.

An LSM would need to implement these functions only if they had mount time
options, such as selinux has context= or fscontext=.  If the LSM has no
mount time options they could simply not implement and let the dummy ops
take care of things.

An LSM other than SELinux would need to define new option numbers in
security.h and any FS which decides to own there own security options would
need to be patched to use this new interface for every possible LSM.  This
is because it was stated to me very clearly that LSM's should not attempt to
understand FS mount data and the burdon to understand security should be in
the FS which owns the options.

byte boundary.

This value is to be used to program the host controller.  As this
represents the actual length of buffer available to the controller and
the controller must be able to deal with short transfers for ATAPI
commands which can transfer variable length, this shouldn't break any
controllers while making problems like rounding-down and controllers
choking up on odd transfer bytes much less likely.

The unmodified value is stored in new field qc->raw_nbytes.

be chained, padding can be handled using standard sg ops.  Convert to

* s/qc->__sg/qc->sg/

* s/qc->pad_sgent/qc->extra_sg[]/.  Because chaining consumes one sg
  entry.  There need to be two extra sg entries.  The renaming is also
  for future addition of other extra sg entries.

* Padding setup is moved into ata_sg_setup_extra() which is organized
  in a way that future addition of other extra sg entries is easy.

* qc->orig_n_elem is unused and removed.

* qc->n_elem now contains the number of sg entries that LLDs should
  map.  qc->mapped_n_elem is added to carry the original number of
  mapped sgs for unmapping.

* The last sg of the original sg list is used to chain to extra sg
  list.  The original last sg is pointed to by qc->last_sg and the
  content is stored in qc->saved_last_sg.  It's restored during
  ata_sg_clean().

* All sg walking code has been updated.  Unnecessary assertions and
  checks for conditions the core layer already guarantees are removed.

Tejun Heo 021ee9a6da libata: reimplement ata_acpi_cbl_80wire() using ata_acpi_gtm_xfermask()
Reimplement ata_acpi_cbl_80wire() using ata_acpi_gtm_xfermask() and
while at it relocate the function below ata_acpi_gtm_xfermask().

New ata_acpi_cbl_80wire() implementation takes @gtm, in both pata_via
and pata_amd, use the initial GTM value.  Both are trying to peek
initial BIOS configuration, so using initial caching value makes
sense.  This fixes ACPI part of cable detection in pata_amd which
previously always returned 0 because configuring PIO0 during reset
clears DMA configuration.

Tejun Heo c88f90c377 libata: add ATA_CBL_PATA_IGN
ATA_CBL_PATA_UNK indicates that the cable type can't be determined
from the host side and might be either 80c or 40c.  libata applies
drive or other generic limit in this case.  However, there are
controllers where both host and drive side detections are
misimplemented and the driver has to rely solely on private method -
peeking BIOS or ACPI configuration or using some other private
mechanism.

This patch adds ATA_CBL_PATA_IGN which tells libata to ignore the
cable type completely and just let the LLD determine the transfer mode
via host transfer mode masks and ->mode_filter().

Alan Cox ae8d4ee7ff libata: Disable ATA8-ACS proposed Trusted Computing features by default
Historically word 48 in the identify data was used to mean 32bit I/O
was supported for VLB IDE etc. ATA8 reassigns this word to the Trusted
Computing Group, where it is used for TCG features. This means that
an ATA8 TCG drive is going to trigger 32bit I/O on some systems which
will be funny.

Anyway we need to sort this out ready for ATA8 so:
- Reorder the ata.h header a bit so the ata_version function occurs early
  in it
- Make dword_io check the ATA version
- Add an ATA8 version checking TCG presence test

While we are at it the current drafts have a flaw where it may not be
possible to disable TCG features at boot (and opt out of the trusted
model) as TCG intends because it relies on presence of a different
optional feature (DCS). Handle this in software by refusing the TCG
commands if libata.allow_tpm is not set. (We must make it possible
as some environments such as proprietary VDR devices will doubtless
want to use it to lock up content)

Finally as with CPRM print a warning so that the user knows they may
not be able to full access and use the device.

Johannes Berg eb13ba8738 lockdep: fix workqueue creation API lockdep interaction
Dave Young reported warnings from lockdep that the workqueue API
can sometimes try to register lockdep classes with the same key
but different names. This is not permitted in lockdep.

Unfortunately, I was unaware of that restriction when I wrote
the code to debug workqueue problems with lockdep and used the
workqueue name as the lockdep class name. This can obviously
lead to the problem if the workqueue name is dynamic.

This patch solves the problem by always using a constant name
for the workqueue's lockdep class, namely either the constant
name that was passed in or a string consisting of the variable
name.

The reason for this is so that the SCSI mid-layer can relax the default

Len Brown 9f9adecd2d PM: ACPI and APM must not be enabled at the same time
ACPI and APM used "pm_active" to guarantee that
they would not be simultaneously active.

But pm_active was recently moved under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY,
so that without CONFIG_PM_LEGACY, pm_active became a NOP --
allowing ACPI and APM to both be simultaneously enabled.
This caused unpredictable results, including boot hangs.

Further, the code under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY is scheduled
for removal.

So replace pm_active with pm_flags.
pm_flags depends only on CONFIG_PM,
which is present for both CONFIG_APM and CONFIG_ACPI.

A new request type aead_givcrypt_request is added which contains an
embedded aead_request structure with two new elements to support this
operation.  The new elements are seq and giv.  The seq field should
contain a strictly increasing 64-bit integer which may be used by
certain IV generators as an input value.  The giv field will be used
to store the generated IV.  It does not need to obey the alignment
requirements of the algorithm because it's not used during the operation.

The existing iv field must still be available as it will be used to store
intermediate IVs and the output IV if chaining is desired.

Herbert Xu 61da88e2b8 [CRYPTO] skcipher: Add givcrypt operations and givcipher type
Different block cipher modes have different requirements for intialisation
vectors.  For example, CBC can use a simple randomly generated IV while
modes such as CTR must use an IV generation mechanisms that give a stronger
guarantee on the lack of collisions.  Furthermore, disk encryption modes
have their own IV generation algorithms.

Up until now IV generation has been left to the users of the symmetric
key cipher API.  This is inconvenient as the number of block cipher modes
increase because the user needs to be aware of which mode is supposed to
be paired with which IV generation algorithm.

Therefore it makes sense to integrate the IV generation into the crypto
API.  This patch takes the first step in that direction by creating two
new ablkcipher operations, givencrypt and givdecrypt that generates an
IV before performing the actual encryption or decryption.

The operations are currently not exposed to the user.  That will be done
once the underlying functionality has actually been implemented.

It also creates the underlying givcipher type.  Algorithms that directly
generate IVs would use it instead of ablkcipher.  All other algorithms
(including all existing ones) would generate a givcipher algorithm upon
registration.  This givcipher algorithm will be constructed from the geniv
string that's stored in every algorithm.  That string will locate a template
which is instantiated by the blkcipher/ablkcipher algorithm in question to
give a givcipher algorithm.

Herbert Xu 378f4f51f9 [CRYPTO] skcipher: Add crypto_grab_skcipher interface
Note: From now on the collective of ablkcipher/blkcipher/givcipher will
be known as skcipher, i.e., symmetric key cipher.  The name blkcipher has
always been much of a misnomer since it supports stream ciphers too.

This patch adds the function crypto_grab_skcipher as a new way of getting
an ablkcipher spawn.  The problem is that previously we did this in two
steps, first getting the algorithm and then calling crypto_init_spawn.

This meant that each spawn user had to be aware of what type and mask to
use for these two steps.  This is difficult and also presents a problem
when the type/mask changes as they're about to be for IV generators.

The new interface does both steps together just like crypto_alloc_ablkcipher.

As a side-effect this also allows us to be stronger on type enforcement
for spawns.  For now this is only done for ablkcipher but it's trivial
to extend for other types.

This patch also moves the type/mask logic for skcipher into the helpers
crypto_skcipher_type and crypto_skcipher_mask.

Finally this patch introduces the function crypto_require_sync to determine
whether the user is specifically requesting a sync algorithm.

Herbert Xu 332f8840f7 [CRYPTO] ablkcipher: Add distinct ABLKCIPHER type
Up until now we have ablkcipher algorithms have been identified as
type BLKCIPHER with the ASYNC bit set.  This is suboptimal because
ablkcipher refers to two things.  On the one hand it refers to the
top-level ablkcipher interface with requests.  On the other hand it
refers to and algorithm type underneath.

As it is you cannot request a synchronous block cipher algorithm
with the ablkcipher interface on top.  This is a problem because
we want to be able to eventually phase out the blkcipher top-level
interface.

This patch fixes this by making ABLKCIPHER its own type, just as
we have distinct types for HASH and DIGEST.  The type it associated
with the algorithm implementation only.

Which top-level interface is used for synchronous block ciphers is
then determined by the mask that's used.  If it's a specific mask
then the old blkcipher interface is given, otherwise we go with the
new ablkcipher interface.

David S. Miller a0a46196cd [NET]: Add NAPI_STATE_DISABLE.
Create a bit to signal that a napi_disable() is in progress.

This sets up infrastructure such that net_rx_action() can generically
break out of the ->poll() loop on a NAPI context that has a pending
napi_disable() yet is being bombed with packets (and thus would
otherwise poll endlessly and not allow the napi_disable() to finish).

Now, what napi_disable() does is first set the NAPI_STATE_DISABLE bit
(to indicate that a disable is pending), then it polls for the
NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit, and once the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit is acquired
the NAPI_STATE_DISABLE bit is cleared.  Here, the test_and_set_bit()
provides the necessary memory barrier between the various bitops.

napi_schedule_prep() now tests for a pending disable as it's first
action and won't try to obtain the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit if a disable
is pending.

As a result, we can remove the netif_running() check in
netif_rx_schedule_prep() because the NAPI disable pending state serves
this purpose.  And, it does so in a NAPI centric manner which is what
we really want.

changeset needs to do.  net_rx_action() can only perform actions
in NAPI centric ways, because there may be a one to many mapping
between NAPI contexts and network devices (SKY2 is one example).

We also want to get rid of this because it's an extra atomic in the
NAPI paths, and also because it is one of the last instances where the
NAPI interfaces care about net devices.

The one remaining netdev detail the NAPI stuff cares about is the
netif_running() check which will be killed off in a subsequent
changeset.

Alan Cox bf5e5834bf pl2303: Fix mode switching regression
Cleaning out all the incorrect 'no change made' checks for termios
settings showed up a problem with the PL2303. The hardware here seems to
lose sync and bits if you tell it to make no changes. This shows up with
a real world application.

To fix this the driver check for meaningful hardware changes is restored
but doing the tests correctly and as a tty layer function so it doesn't
get duplicated wrongly everywhere if other drivers turn out to need it.

Ingo Molnar a263898f62 CPU hotplug: fix cpu_is_offline() on !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
make randconfig bootup testing found that the cpufreq code
crashes on bootup, if the powernow-k8 driver is enabled and
if maxcpus=1 passed on the boot line to a !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
kernel.

First lockdep found out that there's an inconsistent unlock
sequence:

 =====================================
 [ BUG: bad unlock balance detected! ]
 -------------------------------------
 swapper/1 is trying to release lock (&per_cpu(cpu_policy_rwsem, cpu)) at:
 [<ffffffff806ffd8e>] unlock_policy_rwsem_write+0x3c/0x42
 but there are no more locks to release!

Call Trace:

 [<ffffffff807008b6>] cpufreq_add_dev+0x2a8/0x5c4
 ...

then shortly afterwards the cpufreq code crashed on an assert:

 ------------[ cut here ]------------
 kernel BUG at drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c:1068!
 invalid opcode: 0000 [1] SMP
 [...]
 Call Trace:

  [<ffffffff80cc0596>] powernowk8_init+0x86/0x94
 [...]
 ---[ end trace 1e9219be2b4431de ]---

the bug was caused by maxcpus=1 bootup, which brought up the
secondary core as !cpu_online() but !cpu_is_offline() either,
which on on !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is always 0 (include/linux/cpu.h):

  /* CPUs don't go offline once they're online w/o CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU */
  static inline int cpu_is_offline(int cpu) { return 0; }

but the cpufreq code uses cpu_online() and cpu_is_offline() in
a mixed way - the low-level drivers use cpu_online(), while
the cpufreq core uses cpu_is_offline(). This opened up the
possibility to add the non-initialized sysdev device of the
secondary core:

 cpufreq-core: trying to register driver powernow-k8
 cpufreq-core: adding CPU 0
 powernow-k8: BIOS error - no PSB or ACPI _PSS objects
 cpufreq-core: initialization failed
 cpufreq-core: adding CPU 1
 cpufreq-core: initialization failed

which then blew up. The fix is to make cpu_is_offline() always
the negation of cpu_online(). With that fix applied the kernel
boots up fine without crashing:

 Calling initcall 0xffffffff80cc0510: powernowk8_init+0x0/0x94()
 powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ processors (1 cpu cores) (version 2.20.00)
 powernow-k8: BIOS error - no PSB or ACPI _PSS objects
 initcall 0xffffffff80cc0510: powernowk8_init+0x0/0x94() returned -19.
 initcall 0xffffffff80cc0510 ran for 19 msecs: powernowk8_init+0x0/0x94()
 Calling initcall 0xffffffff80cc328f: init_lapic_nmi_sysfs+0x0/0x39()

We could fix this by making CPU enumeration aware of max_cpus, but that
would be more fragile IMO, and the cpu_online(cpu) != cpu_is_offline(cpu)
possibility was quite confusing and a continuous source of bugs too.

Most distributions have kernels with CPU hotplug enabled, so this bug
remained hidden for a long time.

Bug forensics:

The broken cpu_is_offline() API variant was introduced via:

 commit a59d2e4e6977e7b94e003c96a41f07e96cddc340
 Author: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
 Date:   Mon Mar 8 06:06:03 2004 -0800

     [PATCH] minor cleanups for hotplug CPUs

( this predates linux-2.6.git, this commit is available from Thomas's
  historic git tree. )

Then 1.5 years later the cpufreq code made use of it:

 commit c32b6b8e52
 Author: Ashok Raj <ashok.raj@intel.com>
 Date:   Sun Oct 30 14:59:54 2005 -0800

     [PATCH] create and destroy cpufreq sysfs entries based on cpu notifiers

 +       if (cpu_is_offline(cpu))
 +               return 0;

which is a correct use of the subtly broken new API. v2.6.15 then
shipped with this bug included.

then it took two more years for random-kernel qa to hit it.

Given the new sysctl nr_overcommit_hugepages, the boolean dynamic pool

(pool enabled).

Nishanth Aravamudan d1c3fb1f8f hugetlb: introduce nr_overcommit_hugepages sysctl
hugetlb: introduce nr_overcommit_hugepages sysctl

While examining the code to support /proc/sys/vm/hugetlb_dynamic_pool, I
became convinced that having a boolean sysctl was insufficient:

1) To support per-node control of hugepages, I have previously submitted
patches to add a sysfs attribute related to nr_hugepages. However, with
a boolean global value and per-mount quota enforcement constraining the
dynamic pool, adding corresponding control of the dynamic pool on a
per-node basis seems inconsistent to me.

2) Administration of the hugetlb dynamic pool with multiple hugetlbfs
mount points is, arguably, more arduous than it needs to be. Each quota
would need to be set separately, and the sum would need to be monitored.

To ease the administration, and to help make the way for per-node
control of the static & dynamic hugepage pool, I added a separate
sysctl, nr_overcommit_hugepages. This value serves as a high watermark
for the overall hugepage pool, while nr_hugepages serves as a low
watermark. The boolean sysctl can then be removed, as the condition

	nr_overcommit_hugepages > 0

indicates the same administrative setting as

	hugetlb_dynamic_pool == 1

Quotas still serve as local enforcement of the size of the pool on a
per-mount basis.

A few caveats:

1) There is a race whereby the global surplus huge page counter is
incremented before a hugepage has allocated. Another process could then
try grow the pool, and fail to convert a surplus huge page to a normal
huge page and instead allocate a fresh huge page. I believe this is
benign, as no memory is leaked (the actual pages are still tracked
correctly) and the counters won't go out of sync.

2) Shrinking the static pool while a surplus is in effect will allow the
number of surplus huge pages to exceed the overcommit value. As long as
this condition holds, however, no more surplus huge pages will be
allowed on the system until one of the two sysctls are increased
sufficiently, or the surplus huge pages go out of use and are freed.

Successfully tested on x86_64 with the current libhugetlbfs snapshot,
modified to use the new sysctl.

Tejun Heo 140b5e5911 libata: fix ATAPI draining
With ATAPI transfer chunk size properly programmed, libata PIO HSM
should be able to handle full spurious data chunks.  Also, it's a good
idea to suppress trailing data warning for misc ATAPI commands as
there can be many of them per command - for example, if the chunk size
is 16 and the drive tries to transfer 510 bytes, there can be 31
trailing data messages.

This patch makes the following updates to libata ATAPI PIO HSM
implementation.

* Make it drain full spurious chunks.

* Suppress trailing data warning message for misc commands.

* Put limit on how many bytes can be drained.

* If odd, round up consumed bytes and the number of bytes to be
  drained.  This gets the number of bytes to drain right for drivers
  which do 16bit PIO.

This patch is partial backport of improve-ATAPI-data-xfer patchset
pending for #upstream.

Tejun Heo 398e07826b libata-acpi: implement dev->gtf_cache and evaluate _GTF right after _STM during resume
On certain implementations, _GTF evaluation depends on preceding _STM
and both can be pretty picky about the configuration.  Using _GTM
result cached during controller initialization satisfies the most
neurotic _STM implementation.  However, libata evaluates _GTF after
reset during device configuration and the hardware state can be
different from what _GTF expects and can cause evaluation failure.

This patch adds dev->gtf_cache and updates ata_dev_get_GTF() such that
it uses the cached value if available.  Cache is cleared with a call
to ata_acpi_clear_gtf().

Because for SATA ACPI nodes _GTF must be evaluated after _SDD which
can't be done till IDENTIFY is complete, _GTF caching from
ata_acpi_on_resume() is used only for IDE ACPI nodes.

Tejun Heo c05e6ff035 libata-acpi: implement and use ata_acpi_init_gtm()
_GTM fetches currently configured transfer mode while _STM configures
controller according to _GTM parameter and prepares transfer mode
configuration TFs for _GTF.  In many cases _GTM and _STM
implementations are quite brittle and can't cope with configuration
changed by libata.

libata does not depend on ATA ACPI to configure devices.  The only
reason libata performs _GTM and _STM are to make _GTF evaluation
succeed and libata also doesn't care about how _GTF TFs configure
transfer mode.  It overrides that configuration anyway, so from
libata's POV, it doesn't matter what value is feeded to _STM as long
as evaluation succeeds for _STM and following _GTF.

This patch adds dev->__acpi_init_gtm and store initial _GTM values on
host initialization before modified by reset and mode configuration.
If the field is valid, ata_acpi_init_gtm() returns pointer to the
saved _GTM structure; otherwise, NULL.

This saved value is used for _STM during resume and peek at
BIOS/firmware programmed initial timing for later use.  The accessor
is there to make building w/o ACPI easy as dev->__acpi_init doesn't
exist if ACPI is not enabled.

On driver detach, the initial BIOS configuration is restored by
executing _STM with the initial _GTM values such that the next driver
can also use the initial BIOS configured values.

Doug Maxey 33abc04f04 usb-storage: Fix devices that cannot handle 32k transfers
When a device cannot handle the smallest previously limited transfer
size (64 blocks) without stalling, limit the device to the amount of
packets that fit in a platform native page.

The lowest possible limit is PAGE_CACHE_SIZE, so if the device is ever
used on a platform that has larger than 8K pages, you lose unless you
can convince the device firmware folks to fix the issue.

Patrick McHardy 4a9ecd5960 [NETFILTER]: bridge: fix missing link layer headers on outgoing routed packets
As reported by Damien Thebault, the double POSTROUTING hook invocation
fix caused outgoing packets routed between two bridges to appear without
a link-layer header. The reason for this is that we're skipping the
br_nf_post_routing hook for routed packets now and don't save the
original link layer header, but nevertheless tries to restore it on
output, causing corruption.

The root cause for this is that skb->nf_bridge has no clearly defined
lifetime and is used to indicate all kind of things, but that is
quite complicated to fix. For now simply don't touch these packets
and handle them like packets from any other device.

Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz 3ab7efe8e2 ide: DMA reporting and validity checking fixes (take 3)
* ide_xfer_verbose() fixups:
  - beautify returned mode names
  - fix PIO5 reporting
  - make it return 'const char *'

* Change printk() level from KERN_DEBUG to KERN_INFO in ide_find_dma_mode().

* Add ide_id_dma_bug() helper based on ide_dma_verbose() to check for invalid
  DMA info in identify block.

* Use ide_id_dma_bug() in ide_tune_dma() and ide_driveid_update().

  As a result DMA won't be tuned or will be disabled after tuning if device
  reports inconsistent info about enabled DMA mode (ide_dma_verbose() does the
  same checks while the IDE device is probed by ide-{cd,disk} device driver).

* Remove no longer needed ide_dma_verbose().

This patch should fix the following problem with out-of-sync IDE messages
reported by Nick Warne:

       hdd: ATAPI 48X DVD-ROM DVD-R-RAM CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache<7>hdd:
       skipping word 93 validity check
        , UDMA(66)

and later debugged by Mark Lord to be caused by:

        ide_dma_verbose()
                printk( ... "2048kB Cache");
        eighty_ninty_three()
                printk(KERN_DEBUG "%s: skipping word 93 validity check\n");
        ide_dma_verbose()
                printk(", UDMA(66)"

Please note that as a result ide-{cd,disk} device drivers won't report the
DMA speed used but this is intended since now DMA mode being used is always
reported by IDE core code.

v2:
* fixes suggested by Randy:
  - use KERN_CONT for printk()-s in ide-{cd,disk}.c
  - don't remove argument name from ide_xfer_verbose() declaration

v3:
* Remove incorrect check for (id->field_valid & 1) from ide_id_dma_bug()
  (spotted by Sergei).

* "XFER SLOW" -> "PIO SLOW" in ide_xfer_verbose() (suggested by Sergei).

* Fix ide_find_dma_mode() to report the correct mode ('mode' after being
  limited by 'req_mode').

Jay Vosburgh 6f6652be18 bonding: Add new layer2+3 hash for xor/802.3ad modes
Add new hash for balance-xor and 802.3ad modes.  Originally
 submitted by "Glenn Griffin" <ggriffin.kernel@gmail.com>; modified by
 Jay Vosburgh to move setting of hash policy out of line, tweak the
 documentation update and add version update to 3.2.2.

	Glenn's original comment follows:

Included is a patch for a new xmit_hash_policy for the bonding driver
that selects slaves based on MAC and IP information.  This is a middle
ground between what currently exists in the layer2 only policy and the
layer3+4 policy.  This policy strives to be fully 802.3ad compliant by
transmitting every packet of any particular flow over the same link.
As documented the layer3+4 policy is not fully compliant for extreme
cases such as ip fragmentation, so this policy is a nice compromise
for environments that require full compliance but desire more than the
layer2 only policy.

Alexey Dobriyan 5a622f2d0f proc: fix proc_dir_entry refcounting
Creating PDEs with refcount 0 and "deleted" flag has problems (see below).
Switch to usual scheme:
* PDE is created with refcount 1
* every de_get does +1
* every de_put() and remove_proc_entry() do -1
* once refcount reaches 0, PDE is freed.

This elegantly fixes at least two following races (both observed) without
introducing new locks, without abusing old locks, without spreading
lock_kernel():

1) PDE leak

remove_proc_entry			de_put
-----------------			------
			[refcnt = 1]
if (atomic_read(&de->count) == 0)
					if (atomic_dec_and_test(&de->count))
						if (de->deleted)
							/* also not taken! */
							free_proc_entry(de);
else
	de->deleted = 1;
		[refcount=0, deleted=1]

2) use after free

remove_proc_entry			de_put
-----------------			------
			[refcnt = 1]

					if (atomic_dec_and_test(&de->count))
if (atomic_read(&de->count) == 0)
	free_proc_entry(de);
						/* boom! */
						if (de->deleted)
							free_proc_entry(de);

Also, remove broken usage of ->deleted from reiserfs: if sget() succeeds,
module is already pinned and remove_proc_entry() can't happen => nobody
can mark PDE deleted.

Dummy proc root in netns code is not marked with refcount 1. AFAICS, we
never get it, it's just for proper /proc/net removal. I double checked
CLONE_NETNS continues to work.

Patch survives many hours of modprobe/rmmod/cat loops without new bugs
which can be attributed to refcounting.

Jan Kara d4beaf4ab5 jbd: Fix assertion failure in fs/jbd/checkpoint.c
Before we start committing a transaction, we call
__journal_clean_checkpoint_list() to cleanup transaction's written-back
buffers.

If this call happens to remove all of them (and there were already some
buffers), __journal_remove_checkpoint() will decide to free the transaction
because it isn't (yet) a committing transaction and soon we fail some
assertion - the transaction really isn't ready to be freed :).

We change the check in __journal_remove_checkpoint() to free only a
transaction in T_FINISHED state.  The locking there is subtle though (as
everywhere in JBD ;().  We use j_list_lock to protect the check and a
subsequent call to __journal_drop_transaction() and do the same in the end
of journal_commit_transaction() which is the only place where a transaction
can get to T_FINISHED state.

Probably I'm too paranoid here and such locking is not really necessary -
checkpoint lists are processed only from log_do_checkpoint() where a
transaction must be already committed to be processed or from
__journal_clean_checkpoint_list() where kjournald itself calls it and thus
transaction cannot change state either.  Better be safe if something
changes in future...

Steven Rostedt ce6bd420f4 futex: fix for futex_wait signal stack corruption
David Holmes found a bug in the -rt tree with respect to
pthread_cond_timedwait. After trying his test program on the latest git
from mainline, I found the bug was there too.  The bug he was seeing
that his test program showed, was that if one were to do a "Ctrl-Z" on a
process that was in the pthread_cond_timedwait, and then did a "bg" on
that process, it would return with a "-ETIMEDOUT" but early. That is,
the timer would go off early.

Looking into this, I found the source of the problem. And it is a rather
nasty bug at that.

Here's the relevant code from kernel/futex.c: (not in order in the file)

[...]
smlinkage long sys_futex(u32 __user *uaddr, int op, u32 val,
                          struct timespec __user *utime, u32 __user *uaddr2,
                          u32 val3)
{
        struct timespec ts;
        ktime_t t, *tp = NULL;
        u32 val2 = 0;
        int cmd = op & FUTEX_CMD_MASK;

        if (utime && (cmd == FUTEX_WAIT || cmd == FUTEX_LOCK_PI)) {
                if (copy_from_user(&ts, utime, sizeof(ts)) != 0)
                        return -EFAULT;
                if (!timespec_valid(&ts))
                        return -EINVAL;

                t = timespec_to_ktime(ts);
                if (cmd == FUTEX_WAIT)
                        t = ktime_add(ktime_get(), t);
                tp = &t;
        }
[...]
        return do_futex(uaddr, op, val, tp, uaddr2, val2, val3);
}

[...]

long do_futex(u32 __user *uaddr, int op, u32 val, ktime_t *timeout,
                u32 __user *uaddr2, u32 val2, u32 val3)
{
        int ret;
        int cmd = op & FUTEX_CMD_MASK;
        struct rw_semaphore *fshared = NULL;

        if (!(op & FUTEX_PRIVATE_FLAG))
                fshared = &current->mm->mmap_sem;

        switch (cmd) {
        case FUTEX_WAIT:
                ret = futex_wait(uaddr, fshared, val, timeout);

[...]

static int futex_wait(u32 __user *uaddr, struct rw_semaphore *fshared,
                      u32 val, ktime_t *abs_time)
{
[...]
               struct restart_block *restart;
                restart = &current_thread_info()->restart_block;
                restart->fn = futex_wait_restart;
                restart->arg0 = (unsigned long)uaddr;
                restart->arg1 = (unsigned long)val;
                restart->arg2 = (unsigned long)abs_time;
                restart->arg3 = 0;
                if (fshared)
                        restart->arg3 |= ARG3_SHARED;
                return -ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK;
[...]

static long futex_wait_restart(struct restart_block *restart)
{
        u32 __user *uaddr = (u32 __user *)restart->arg0;
        u32 val = (u32)restart->arg1;
        ktime_t *abs_time = (ktime_t *)restart->arg2;
        struct rw_semaphore *fshared = NULL;

        restart->fn = do_no_restart_syscall;
        if (restart->arg3 & ARG3_SHARED)
                fshared = &current->mm->mmap_sem;
        return (long)futex_wait(uaddr, fshared, val, abs_time);
}

So when the futex_wait is interrupt by a signal we break out of the
hrtimer code and set up or return from signal. This code does not return
back to userspace, so we set up a RESTARTBLOCK.  The bug here is that we
save the "abs_time" which is a pointer to the stack variable "ktime_t t"
from sys_futex.

This returns and unwinds the stack before we get to call our signal. On
return from the signal we go to futex_wait_restart, where we update all
the parameters for futex_wait and call it. But here we have a problem
where abs_time is no longer valid.

I verified this with print statements, and sure enough, what abs_time
was set to ends up being garbage when we get to futex_wait_restart.

The solution I did to solve this (with input from Linus Torvalds)
was to add unions to the restart_block to allow system calls to
use the restart with specific parameters.  This way the futex code now
saves the time in a 64bit value in the restart block instead of storing
it on the stack.

Note: I'm a bit nervious to add "linux/types.h" and use u32 and u64
in thread_info.h, when there's a #ifdef __KERNEL__ just below that.
Not sure what that is there for.  If this turns out to be a problem, I've
tested this with using "unsigned int" for u32 and "unsigned long long" for
u64 and it worked just the same. I'm using u32 and u64 just to be
consistent with what the futex code uses.

Eric Paris 7cd94146cd Security: round mmap hint address above mmap_min_addr
If mmap_min_addr is set and a process attempts to mmap (not fixed) with a
non-null hint address less than mmap_min_addr the mapping will fail the
security checks.  Since this is just a hint address this patch will round
such a hint address above mmap_min_addr.

gcj was found to try to be very frugal with vm usage and give hint addresses
in the 8k-32k range.  Without this patch all such programs failed and with
the patch they happily get a higher address.

This patch is wrappad in CONFIG_SECURITY since mmap_min_addr doesn't exist
without it and there would be no security check possible no matter what.  So
we should not bother compiling in this rounding if it is just a waste of
time.

Lately I've got this nice badness on mdio bus removal:

This patch implement phy device's release function, thus
we're getting rid of this badness.

Srivatsa Vaddagiri d842de871c sched: cpu accounting controller (V2)
Commit cfb5285660 removed a useful feature for
us, which provided a cpu accounting resource controller.  This feature would be
useful if someone wants to group tasks only for accounting purpose and doesnt
really want to exercise any control over their cpu consumption.

The patch below reintroduces the feature. It is based on Paul Menage's
original patch (Commit 62d0df6406), with
these differences:

        - Removed load average information. I felt it needs more thought (esp
	  to deal with SMP and virtualized platforms) and can be added for
	  2.6.25 after more discussions.
        - Convert group cpu usage to be nanosecond accurate (as rest of the cfs
	  stats are) and invoke cpuacct_charge() from the respective scheduler
	  classes
	- Make accounting scalable on SMP systems by splitting the usage
	  counter to be per-cpu
	- Move the code from kernel/cpu_acct.c to kernel/sched.c (since the
	  code is not big enough to warrant a new file and also this rightly
	  needs to live inside the scheduler. Also things like accessing
	  rq->lock while reading cpu usage becomes easier if the code lived in
	  kernel/sched.c)

The patch also modifies the cpu controller not to provide the same accounting
information.

Tested-by: Balbir Singh <balbir@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

 Tested the patches on top of 2.6.24-rc3. The patches work fine. Ran
 some simple tests like cpuspin (spin on the cpu), ran several tasks in
 the same group and timed them. Compared their time stamps with
 cpuacct.usage.

Eric W. Biederman 2b1e300a9d [NETNS]: Fix /proc/net breakage
Well I clearly goofed when I added the initial network namespace support
for /proc/net.  Currently things work but there are odd details visible to
user space, even when we have a single network namespace.

Since we do not cache proc_dir_entry dentries at the moment we can just
modify ->lookup to return a different directory inode depending on the
network namespace of the process looking at /proc/net, replacing the
current technique of using a magic and fragile follow_link method.

To accomplish that this patch:
- introduces a shadow_proc method to allow different dentries to
  be returned from proc_lookup.
- Removes the old /proc/net follow_link magic
- Fixes a weakness in our not caching of proc generic dentries.

As shadow_proc uses a task struct to decided which dentry to return we can
go back later and fix the proc generic caching without modifying any code
that uses the shadow_proc method.

Huang, Ying 7c83172b98 x86_64 EFI boot support: EFI frame buffer driver
This patch adds Graphics Output Protocol support to the kernel.  UEFI2.0 spec
deprecates Universal Graphics Adapter (UGA) protocol and only Graphics Output
Protocol (GOP) is produced.  Therefore, the boot loader needs to query the
UEFI firmware with appropriate Output Protocol and pass the video information
to the kernel.  As a result of GOP protocol, an EFI framebuffer driver is
needed for displaying console messages.  The patch adds a EFI framebuffer
driver.  The EFI frame buffer driver in this patch is based on the Intel Mac
framebuffer driver.

The ELILO bootloader takes care of passing the video information as
appropriate for EFI firmware.

The framebuffer driver has been tested in i386 kernel and x86_64 kernel on EFI
platform.

For reasons unclear to me, glibc's <sys/kd.h> deliberately defeats the
attempt we make in <linux/kd.h> to include <linux/types.h>

For now, change the one instance of __u32 to 'unsigned int' instead
because it's breaking userspace. We should probably also remove our
inclusion of <linux/types.h>, since we don't use it -- but that's not a
change to make in -rc.

On some systems the number of resources(IO,MEM) returnedy by PNP device is
greater than the PNP constant, for example motherboard devices.  It brings
that some resources can't be reserved and resource confilicts.  This will
cause PCI resources are assigned wrongly in some systems, and cause hang.
This is a regression since we deleted ACPI motherboard driver and use PNP
system driver.

James Lentini cfcb43ff7c SUNRPC: remove NFS/RDMA client's binary sysctls
Support for binary sysctls is being deprecated in 2.6.24. Since there
are no applications using the NFS/RDMA client's binary sysctls, it
makes sense to remove them. The patch below does this while leaving
the /proc/sys interface unchanged.

Please consider this for 2.6.24.

John Stultz 52bfb36050 time: add ADJ_OFFSET_SS_READ
Michael Kerrisk reported that a long standing bug in the adjtimex()
system call causes glibc's adjtime(3) function to deliver the wrong
results if 'delta' is NULL.

add the ADJ_OFFSET_SS_READ API detail, which will be used by glibc
to fix this API compatibility bug.

Also see: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6761

[ mingo@elte.hu: added patch description and made it backwards compatible ]

NOTE: the new flag is defined 0xa001 so that it returns -EINVAL on
older kernels - this way glibc can use it safely. Suggested by Ulrich
Drepper.

Herbert Xu 2d4baff8da [SKBUFF]: Free old skb properly in skb_morph
The skb_morph function only freed the data part of the dst skb, but leaked
the auxiliary data such as the netfilter fields.  This patch fixes this by
moving the relevant parts from __kfree_skb to skb_release_all and calling
it in skb_morph.

It also makes kfree_skbmem static since it's no longer called anywhere else
and it now no longer does skb_release_data.

Thanks to Yasuyuki KOZAKAI for finding this problem and posting a patch for
it.

Shaohua Li 61fd47e0c8 ACPI: fix two IRQ8 issues in IOAPIC mode
Use mp_irqs[] to get PNP device's interrupt polarity and trigger.
There are two reasons to do this:
1. BIOS bug for PNP interrupt
2. BIOS explictly does override
mp_irqs[] should cover all the cases.

Venkatesh Pallipadi ddc081a195 cpuidle: fix HP nx6125 regression
Fix for http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9355

cpuidle always used to fallback to C2 if there is some bm activity while
entering C3. But, presence of C2 is not always guaranteed. Change cpuidle
algorithm to detect a safe_state to fallback in case of bm_activity and
use that state instead of C2.

Albert Lee 2d3b8eea7f libata: workaround DRQ=1 ERR=1 for ATAPI tape drives
After an error condition, some ATAPI tape drives set DRQ=1 together
with ERR=1 when asking the host to transfer the CDB of the next packet
command (i.e. request sense).  This patch, a revised version of
Alan/Mark's previous patch, adds ATA_HORKAGE_STUCK_ERR to workaround
the problem by ignoring the ERR bit and proceed sending the CDB.

ENOTSUPP is not a valid error code in the kernel (it is defined in some
NFS internal error codes and has been improperly used other places).  In
the !CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX case though it is possible that we could
return this from selinux_audit_rule_init().  This patch just returns the
userspace valid EOPNOTSUPP.

With 64KB blocksize, a directory entry can have size 64KB which does not
fit into 16 bits we have for entry lenght.  So we store 0xffff instead and
convert value when read from / written to disk.  The patch also converts
some places to use ext3_next_entry() when we are changing them anyway.
