2011-02-28netlink: handle errors from netlink_dump()Andrey Vagin1-4/+14
netlink_dump() may failed, but nobody handle its error. It generates output data, when a previous portion has been returned to user space. This mechanism works when all data isn't go in skb. If we enter in netlink_recvmsg() and skb is absent in the recv queue, the netlink_dump() will not been executed. So if netlink_dump() is failed one time, the new data never appear and the reader will sleep forever. netlink_dump() is called from two places: 1. from netlink_sendmsg->...->netlink_dump_start(). In this place we can report error directly and it will be returned by sendmsg(). 2. from netlink_recvmsg There we can't report error directly, because we have a portion of valid output data and call netlink_dump() for prepare the next portion. If netlink_dump() is failed, the socket will be mark as error and the next recvmsg will be failed. Signed-off-by: Andrey Vagin <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <[email protected]>

In linux rtc_time struct, tm_mon range is 0~11, tm_wday range is 0~6, while in RTC HW REG, month range is 1~12, day of the week range is 1~7, this patch adjusts difference of them. The efect of this bug was that most of month will be operated on as the next month by the hardware (When in Jan it maybe even worse). For example, if in May, software wrote 4 to the hardware, which handled it as April. Then the logic would be different between software and hardware, which would cause weird things to happen.

2011-02-25mm: vmscan: stop reclaim/compaction earlier due to insufficient progress if ↵Mel Gorman1-10/+22
!__GFP_REPEAT should_continue_reclaim() for reclaim/compaction allows scanning to continue even if pages are not being reclaimed until the full list is scanned. In terms of allocation success, this makes sense but potentially it introduces unwanted latency for high-order allocations such as transparent hugepages and network jumbo frames that would prefer to fail the allocation attempt and fallback to order-0 pages. Worse, there is a potential that the full LRU scan will clear all the young bits, distort page aging information and potentially push pages into swap that would have otherwise remained resident. This patch will stop reclaim/compaction if no pages were reclaimed in the last SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages that were considered. For allocations such as hugetlbfs that use __GFP_REPEAT and have fewer fallback options, the full LRU list may still be scanned. Order-0 allocation should not be affected because RECLAIM_MODE_COMPACTION is not set so the following avoids the gfp_mask being examined: if (!(sc->reclaim_mode & RECLAIM_MODE_COMPACTION)) return false; A tool was developed based on ftrace that tracked the latency of high-order allocations while transparent hugepage support was enabled and three benchmarks were run. The "fix-infinite" figures are 2.6.38-rc4 with Johannes's patch "vmscan: fix zone shrinking exit when scan work is done" applied.

THP mean allocation latency is also reduced. That said, allocation time varies so significantly that the reductions are within noise. Max allocation time is reduced by a significant amount for low-order allocations but reduced for THP allocations which presumably are now breaking before reclaim has done enough work.

This pounds swap quite heavily and is intended to exercise THP a bit. Mean allocation time for order-1 is reduced as before. It's also reduced for THP allocations but the variations here are pretty massive due to swap. As before, maximum allocation times are significantly reduced. Overall, the patch reduces the mean and maximum allocation latencies for the smaller high-order allocations. This was with Slab configured so it would be expected to be more significant with Slub which uses these size allocations more aggressively. The mean allocation times for THP allocations are also slightly reduced. The maximum latency was slightly increased as predicted by the comments due to reclaim/compaction breaking early. However, workloads care more about the latency of lower-order allocations than THP so it's an acceptable trade-off.

2011-02-25drivers/nfc/pn544.c: add missing regulatorMatti J. Aaltonen1-1/+3
The regulator framework is used for power management. The regulators are only named in the driver code, the actual control stuff is in the board file for each architecture or use case. The PN544 chip has three regulators that can be controlled or not - depending on the architecture where the chip is being used. So some of the regulators may not be controllable. In our current case the third regulator, which was missing from the code, went unnoticed because we didn't need to control it. To be as general as possible - in this respect - the driver needs to list all regulators. Then the board file can be used to actually set the usage. Signed-off-by: Matti J.

2011-02-25epoll: prevent creating circular epoll structuresDavide Libenzi1-0/+95
In several places, an epoll fd can call another file's ->f_op->poll() method with ep->mtx held. This is in general unsafe, because that other file could itself be an epoll fd that contains the original epoll fd. The code defends against this possibility in its own ->poll() method using ep_call_nested, but there are several other unsafe calls to ->poll elsewhere that can be made to deadlock. For example, the following simple program causes the call in ep_insert recursively call the original fd's ->poll, leading to deadlock: #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/epoll.h> int main(void) { int e1, e2, p[2]; struct epoll_event evt = { .events = EPOLLIN }; e1 = epoll_create(1); e2 = epoll_create(2); pipe(p); epoll_ctl(e2, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, e1, &evt); epoll_ctl(e1, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, p[0], &evt); write(p[1], p, sizeof p); epoll_ctl(e1, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, e2, &evt); return 0; } On insertion, check whether the inserted file is itself a struct epoll, and if so, do a recursive walk to detect whether inserting this file would create a loop of epoll structures, which could lead to deadlock.

2011-02-25net: handle addr_type of 0 properlyHagen Paul Pfeifer1-1/+1
addr_type of 0 means that the type should be adopted from from_dev and not from __hw_addr_del_multiple(). Unfortunately it isn't so and addr_type will always be considered. Fix this by implementing the considered and documented behavior. Signed-off-by: Hagen Paul Pfeifer <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <[email protected]>

2011-02-25ath9k: correct ath9k_hw_set_interruptsStanislaw Gruszka1-2/+3
Commit 4df3071ebd92ef7115b409da64d0eb405d24a631 "ath9k_hw: optimize interrupt mask changes", changed ath9k_hw_set_interrupts function to enable interrupts regardless of function argument, what could possibly be wrong. Correct that behaviour and check "ints" arguments before enabling interrupts, also disable interrupts if ints do not have ATH9K_INT_GLOBAL flag set.

2011-02-25omap4: prcm: Fix the CPUx clockdomain offsetsSantosh Shilimkar1-2/+2
CPU0 and CPU1 clockdomain is at the offset of 0x18 from the LPRM base. The header file has set it wrongly to 0x0. Offset 0x0 is for CPUx power domain control register Fix the same. The autogen scripts is fixed thanks to Benoit Cousson With the old value, the clockdomain code would access the *_PWRSTCTRL.POWERSTATE field when it thought it was accessing the *_CLKSTCTRL.CLKTRCTRL field. In the worst case, this could cause system power management to behave incorrectly.
