Stefano Stabellini 183d03cc4f xen: Xen PCI platform device driver.
Add the xen pci platform device driver that is responsible
for initializing the grant table and xenbus in PV on HVM mode.
Few changes to xenbus and grant table are necessary to allow the delayed
initialization in HVM mode.
Grant table needs few additional modifications to work in HVM mode.

The Xen PCI platform device raises an irq every time an event has been
delivered to us. However these interrupts are only delivered to vcpu 0.
The Xen PCI platform interrupt handler calls xen_hvm_evtchn_do_upcall
that is a little wrapper around __xen_evtchn_do_upcall, the traditional
Xen upcall handler, the very same used with traditional PV guests.

When running on HVM the event channel upcall is never called while in
progress because it is a normal Linux irq handler (and we cannot switch
the irq chip wholesale to the Xen PV ones as we are running QEMU and
might have passed in PCI devices), therefore we cannot be sure that
evtchn_upcall_pending is 0 when returning.
For this reason if evtchn_upcall_pending is set by Xen we need to loop
again on the event channels set pending otherwise we might loose some
event channel deliveries.

Artem Bityutskiy 140236b4b1 VFS: introduce s_dirty accessors
This patch introduces 3 VFS accessors: 'sb_mark_dirty()',
'sb_mark_clean()', and 'sb_is_dirty()'. They simply
set 'sb->s_dirt' or test 'sb->s_dirt'. The plan is to make
every FS use these accessors later instead of manipulating
the 'sb->s_dirt' flag directly.

Ultimately, this change is a preparation for the periodic
superblock synchronization optimization which is about
preventing the "sync_supers" kernel thread from waking up
even if there is nothing to synchronize.

This patch does not do any functional change, just adds
accessor functions.

Christoph Hellwig 83ba7b071f writeback: simplify the write back thread queue
First remove items from work_list as soon as we start working on them.  This
means we don't have to track any pending or visited state and can get
rid of all the RCU magic freeing the work items - we can simply free
them once the operation has finished.  Second use a real completion for
tracking synchronous requests - if the caller sets the completion pointer
we complete it, otherwise use it as a boolean indicator that we can free
the work item directly.  Third unify struct wb_writeback_args and struct
bdi_work into a single data structure, wb_writeback_work.  Previous we
set all parameters into a struct wb_writeback_args, copied it into
struct bdi_work, copied it again on the stack to use it there.  Instead
of just allocate one structure dynamically or on the stack and use it
all the way through the stack.

Christoph Hellwig edadfb10ba writeback: split writeback_inodes_wb
The case where we have a superblock doesn't require a loop here as we scan
over all inodes in writeback_sb_inodes. Split it out into a separate helper
to make the code simpler.  This also allows to get rid of the sb member in
struct writeback_control, which was rather out of place there.

Also update the comments in writeback_sb_inodes that explain the handling
of inodes from wrong superblocks.

Ben Hutchings bcfcc450ba net: Fix definition of netif_vdbg() when VERBOSE_DEBUG is defined
netif_vdbg() was originally defined as entirely equivalent to
netdev_vdbg(), but I assume that it was intended to take the same
parameters as netif_dbg() etc.  (Currently it is only used by the
sfc driver, in which I worked on that assumption.)

In commit a4ed89c I changed the definition used when VERBOSE_DEBUG is
not defined, but I failed to notice that the definition used when
VERBOSE_DEBUG is defined was also not as I expected.  Change that to
match netif_dbg() as well.

Peter Zijlstra b945d6b255 rbtree: Undo augmented trees performance damage and regression
Reimplement augmented RB-trees without sprinkling extra branches
all over the RB-tree code (which lives in the scheduler hot path).

This approach is 'borrowed' from Fabio's BFQ implementation and
relies on traversing the rebalance path after the RB-tree-op to
correct the heap property for insertion/removal and make up for
the damage done by the tree rotations.

For insertion the rebalance path is trivially that from the new
node upwards to the root, for removal it is that from the deepest
node in the path from the to be removed node that will still
be around after the removal.

[ This patch also fixes a video driver regression reported by
  Ali Gholami Rudi - the memtype->subtree_max_end was updated
  incorrectly. ]

twice which causes all sorts of nasty issues. Also handle

John Fastabend f0796d5c73 net: decreasing real_num_tx_queues needs to flush qdisc
Reducing real_num_queues needs to flush the qdisc otherwise
skbs with queue_mappings greater then real_num_tx_queues can
be sent to the underlying driver.

The flow for this is,

dev_queue_xmit()
	dev_pick_tx()
		skb_tx_hash()  => hash using real_num_tx_queues
		skb_set_queue_mapping()
	...
	qdisc_enqueue_root() => enqueue skb on txq from hash
...
dev->real_num_tx_queues -= n
...
sch_direct_xmit()
	dev_hard_start_xmit()
		ndo_start_xmit(skb,dev) => skb queue set with old hash

skbs are enqueued on the qdisc with skb->queue_mapping set
0 < queue_mappings < real_num_tx_queues.  When the driver
decreases real_num_tx_queues skb's may be dequeued from the
qdisc with a queue_mapping greater then real_num_tx_queues.

This fixes a case in ixgbe where this was occurring with DCB
and FCoE. Because the driver is using queue_mapping to map
skbs to tx descriptor rings we can potentially map skbs to
rings that no longer exist.

This resulted in a heap of preempt warnings. Cure this by making
nr_iowait_cpu() take a cpu number and fix up the callers to pass
in the right number.

Mikael Pettersson 9c695203a7 compiler-gcc.h: gcc-4.5 needs noclone and noinline on __naked functions
A __naked function is defined in C but with a body completely implemented
by asm(), including any prologue and epilogue.  These asm() bodies expect
standard calling conventions for parameter passing.  Older GCCs implement
that correctly, but 4.[56] currently do not, see GCC PR44290.  In the
Linux kernel this breaks ARM, causing most arch/arm/mm/copypage-*.c
modules to get miscompiled, resulting in kernel crashes during bootup.

Part of the kernel fix is to augment the __naked function attribute to
also imply noinline and noclone.  This patch implements that, and has been
verified to fix boot failures with gcc-4.5 compiled 2.6.34 and 2.6.35-rc1
kernels.  The patch is a no-op with older GCCs.

list_for_each_entry_safe is not suitable to protect against concurrent
modification of the list. 6754af6 introduced a race in sb walking.

list_for_each_entry can use the trick of pinning the current entry in
the list before we drop and retake the lock because it subsequently
follows cur->next. However list_for_each_entry_safe saves n=cur->next
for following before entering the loop body, so when the lock is
dropped, n may be deleted.

commands.  These commands should have been defined to use a new
structure, but it is too late to change that now.

Since user-space may still be using the old structure definition
for the ETHTOOL_{G,S}RXFH commands, and since they do not need the
additional fields, only copy the originally defined fields to and

John Fastabend 597a264b1a net: deliver skbs on inactive slaves to exact matches
Currently, the accelerated receive path for VLAN's will
drop packets if the real device is an inactive slave and
is not one of the special pkts tested for in
skb_bond_should_drop().  This behavior is different then
the non-accelerated path and for pkts over a bonded vlan.

For example,

vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx

will be dropped in the vlan path and not delivered to any
packet handlers at all.  However,

bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx

and

bond0 -> ethx

will be delivered to handlers that match the exact dev,
because the VLAN path checks the real_dev which is not a
slave and netif_recv_skb() doesn't drop frames but only
delivers them to exact matches.

This patch adds a sk_buff flag which is used for tagging
skbs that would previously been dropped and allows the
skb to continue to skb_netif_recv().  Here we add
logic to check for the deliver_no_wcard flag and if it
is set only deliver to handlers that match exactly.  This
makes both paths above consistent and gives pkt handlers
a way to identify skbs that come from inactive slaves.
Without this patch in some configurations skbs will be
delivered to handlers with exact matches and in others
be dropped out right in the vlan path.

I have tested the following 4 configurations in failover modes
and load balancing modes.

# bond0 -> ethx

# vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx

# bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx

# bond0 -> ethx
            |
  vlanx -> --

Alan Cox 79907d89c3 misc: Fix allocation 'borrowed' by vhost_net
10, 233 is allocated officially to /dev/kmview which is shipping in
Ubuntu and Debian distributions.  vhost_net seem to have borrowed it
without making a proper request and this causes regressions in the other
distributions.

vhost_net can use a dynamic minor so use that instead.  Also update the
file with a comment to try and avoid future misunderstandings.

Dave Chinner 0b5649278e writeback: pay attention to wbc->nr_to_write in write_cache_pages
If a filesystem writes more than one page in ->writepage, write_cache_pages
fails to notice this and continues to attempt writeback when wbc->nr_to_write
has gone negative - this trace was captured from XFS:

    wbc_writeback_start: towrt=1024
    wbc_writepage: towrt=1024
    wbc_writepage: towrt=0
    wbc_writepage: towrt=-1
    wbc_writepage: towrt=-5
    wbc_writepage: towrt=-21
    wbc_writepage: towrt=-85

This has adverse effects on filesystem writeback behaviour. write_cache_pages()
needs to terminate after a certain number of pages are written, not after a
certain number of calls to ->writepage are made.  This is a regression
introduced by 17bc6c30cf ("vfs: Add
no_nrwrite_index_update writeback control flag"), but cannot be reverted
directly due to subsequent bug fixes that have gone in on top of it.

Peter Zijlstra dc61b1d65e sched: Fix PROVE_RCU vs cpu_cgroup
PROVE_RCU has a few issues with the cpu_cgroup because the scheduler
typically holds rq->lock around the css rcu derefs but the generic
cgroup code doesn't (and can't) know about that lock.

Provide means to add extra checks to the css dereference and use that
in the scheduler to annotate its users.

The addition of rq->lock to these checks is correct because the
cgroup_subsys::attach() method takes the rq->lock for each task it
moves, therefore by holding that lock, we ensure the task is pinned to
the current cgroup and the RCU derefence is valid.

That leaves one genuine race in __sched_setscheduler() where we used
task_group() without holding any of the required locks and thus raced
with the cgroup code. Solve this by moving the check under the
appropriate lock.

Linus Torvalds 2c02dfe7fe module: Make the 'usage' lists be two-way
When adding a module that depends on another one, we used to create a
one-way list of "modules_which_use_me", so that module unloading could
see who needs a module.

It's actually quite simple to make that list go both ways: so that we
not only can see "who uses me", but also see a list of modules that are
"used by me".

In fact, we always wanted that list in "module_unload_free()": when we
unload a module, we want to also release all the other modules that are
used by that module.  But because we didn't have that list, we used to
first iterate over all modules, and then iterate over each "used by me"
list of that module.

By making the list two-way, we simplify module_unload_free(), and it
allows for some trivial fixes later too.

Oleg Nesterov 485d527686 sys_personality: change sys_personality() to accept "unsigned int" instead of u_long
task_struct->pesonality is "unsigned int", but sys_personality() paths use
"unsigned long pesonality".  This means that every assignment or
comparison is not right.  In particular, if this argument does not fit
into "unsigned int" __set_personality() changes the caller's personality
and then sys_personality() returns -EINVAL.

Turn this argument into "unsigned int" and avoid overflows.  Obviously,
this is the user-visible change, we just ignore the upper bits.  But this
can't break the sane application.

There is another thing which can confuse the poorly written applications.
User-space thinks that this syscall returns int, not long.  This means
that the returned value can be negative and look like the error code.  But
note that libc won't be confused and thus errno won't be set, and with
this patch the user-space can never get -1 unless sys_personality() really
fails.  And, most importantly, the negative RET != -1 is only possible if
that app previously called personality(RET).
