There was some broken keepalive code using a dead variable. Shift to using

With commit f363e45f we replaced a bunch of hacky workqueue mutual
exclusion logic with the WQ_NON_REENTRANT flag. One pieces of fallout is
that the exponential backoff breaks in certain cases:
* con_work attempts to connect.
* we get an immediate failure, and the socket state change handler queues
immediate work.
* con_work calls con_fault, we decide to back off, but can't queue delayed
work.
In this case, we add a BACKOFF bit to make con_work reschedule delayed work
next time it runs (which should be immediately).

This merge creates two set of conflicts. One is simple context
conflicts caused by removal of throtl_scheduled_delayed_work() in
for-linus and removal of throtl_shutdown_timer_wq() in
for-2.6.39/core.
The other is caused by commit 255bb490c8 (block: blk-flush shouldn't
call directly into q->request_fn() __blk_run_queue()) in for-linus
crashing with FLUSH reimplementation in for-2.6.39/core. The conflict
isn't trivial but the resolution is straight-forward.
* __blk_run_queue() calls in flush_end_io() and flush_data_end_io()
should be called with @force_kblockd set to %true.
* elv_insert() in blk_kick_flush() should use
%ELEVATOR_INSERT_REQUEUE.
Both changes are to avoid invoking ->request_fn() directly from
request completion path and closely match the changes in the commit
255bb490c8.

Change logs against Andi's original version:
- Extends perf_event_attr:config to config{,1,2} (Peter Zijlstra)
- Fixed a major event scheduling issue. There cannot be a ref++ on an
event that has already done ref++ once and without calling
put_constraint() in between. (Stephane Eranian)
- Use thread_cpumask for percore allocation. (Lin Ming)
- Use MSR names in the extra reg lists. (Lin Ming)
- Remove redundant "c = NULL" in intel_percore_constraints
- Fix comment of perf_event_attr::config1
Intel Nehalem/Westmere have a special OFFCORE_RESPONSE event
that can be used to monitor any offcore accesses from a core.
This is a very useful event for various tunings, and it's
also needed to implement the generic LLC-* events correctly.
Unfortunately this event requires programming a mask in a separate
register. And worse this separate register is per core, not per
CPU thread.
This patch:
- Teaches perf_events that OFFCORE_RESPONSE needs extra parameters.
The extra parameters are passed by user space in the
perf_event_attr::config1 field.
- Adds support to the Intel perf_event core to schedule per
core resources. This adds fairly generic infrastructure that
can be also used for other per core resources.
The basic code has is patterned after the similar AMD northbridge
constraints code.
Thanks to Stephane Eranian who pointed out some problems
in the original version and suggested improvements.

The VFS mount code passes the mount options to the LSM. The LSM will remove
options it understands from the data and the VFS will then pass the remaining
options onto the underlying filesystem. This is how options like the
SELinux context= work. The problem comes in that -o remount never calls
into LSM code. So if you include an LSM specific option it will get passed
to the filesystem and will cause the remount to fail. An example of where
this is a problem is the 'seclabel' option. The SELinux LSM hook will
print this word in /proc/mounts if the filesystem is being labeled using
xattrs. If you pass this word on mount it will be silently stripped and
ignored. But if you pass this word on remount the LSM never gets called
and it will be passed to the FS. The FS doesn't know what seclabel means
and thus should fail the mount. For example an ext3 fs mounted over loop
# mount -o loop /tmp/fs /mnt/tmp
# cat /proc/mounts | grep /mnt/tmp
/dev/loop0 /mnt/tmp ext3 rw,seclabel,relatime,errors=continue,barrier=0,data=ordered 0 0
# mount -o remount /mnt/tmp
mount: /mnt/tmp not mounted already, or bad option
# dmesg
EXT3-fs (loop0): error: unrecognized mount option "seclabel" or missing value
This patch passes the remount mount options to an new LSM hook.

If we enable trace events to trace block actions, We use
blk_fill_rwbs_rq to analyze the corresponding actions
in request's cmd_flags, but we only choose the minor 2 bits
from it, so most of other flags(e.g, REQ_SYNC) are missing.
For example, with a sync write we get:
write_test-2409 [001] 160.013869: block_rq_insert: 3,64 W 0 () 258135 + =
8 [write_test]
Since now we have integrated the flags of both bio and request,
it is safe to pass rq->cmd_flags directly to blk_fill_rwbs and
blk_fill_rwbs_rq isn't needed any more.
With this patch, after a sync write we get:
write_test-2417 [000] 226.603878: block_rq_insert: 3,64 WS 0 () 258135 +=
8 [write_test]

Move blk_throtl_exit() in blk_cleanup_queue() as blk_throtl_exit() is
written in such a way that it needs queue lock. In blk_release_queue()
there is no gurantee that ->queue_lock is still around.
Initially blk_throtl_exit() was in blk_cleanup_queue() but Ingo reported
one problem.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/10/23/86
And a quick fix moved blk_throtl_exit() to blk_release_queue().
commit 7ad58c028652753814054f4e3ac58f925e7343f4
Author: Jens Axboe <[email protected]>

block: fix use-after-free bug in blk throttle code
This patch reverts above change and does not try to shutdown the
throtl work in blk_sync_queue(). By avoiding call to
throtl_shutdown_timer_wq() from blk_sync_queue(), we should also avoid
the problem reported by Ingo.
blk_sync_queue() seems to be used only by md driver and it seems to be
using it to make sure q->unplug_fn is not called as md registers its
own unplug functions and it is about to free up the data structures
used by unplug_fn(). Block throttle does not call back into unplug_fn()
or into md. So there is no need to cancel blk throttle work.
In fact I think cancelling block throttle work is bad because it might
happen that some bios are throttled and scheduled to be dispatched later
with the help of pending work and if work is cancelled, these bios might
never be dispatched.
Block layer also uses blk_sync_queue() during blk_cleanup_queue() and
blk_release_queue() time. That should be safe as we are also calling
blk_throtl_exit() which should make sure all the throttling related
data structures are cleaned up.

__blk_run_queue() automatically either calls q->request_fn() directly
or schedules kblockd depending on whether the function is recursed.
blk-flush implementation needs to be able to explicitly choose
kblockd. Add @force_kblockd.
All the current users are converted to specify %false for the
parameter and this patch doesn't introduce any behavior change.
stable: This is prerequisite for fixing ide oops caused by the new
blk-flush implementation.

Right at the moment, the libata error handler is incredibly
monolithic. This makes it impossible to use from composite drivers
like libsas and ipr which have to handle error themselves in the first
instance.
The essence of the change is to split the monolithic error handler
into two components: one which handles a queue of ata commands for
processing and the other which handles the back end of readying a
port. This allows the upper error handler fine grained control in
calling libsas functions (and making sure they only get called for ATA
commands whose lower errors have been fixed up).

o Dominik Klein reported a system hang issue while doing some blkio
throttling testing.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/24/173
o Some tracing revealed that CFQ was not dispatching any more jobs as
queue unplug was not happening. And queue unplug was not happening
because unplug work was not being called as there was one throttling
work on same cpu which as not finished yet. And throttling work had not
finished as it was tyring to dispatch a bio to CFQ but all the request
descriptors were consume to it was put to sleep.
o So basically it is a cyclic dependecny between CFQ unplug work and
throtl dispatch work. Tejun suggested that use separate workqueue for
such cases.
o This patch uses a separate workqueue for throttle related work and
does not rely on kblockd workqueue anymore.

Several ACPI drivers fail to build if CONFIG_NET is unset, because
they refer to things depending on CONFIG_THERMAL that in turn depends
on CONFIG_NET. However, CONFIG_THERMAL doesn't really need to depend
on CONFIG_NET, because the only part of it requiring CONFIG_NET is
the netlink interface in thermal_sys.c.
Put the netlink interface in thermal_sys.c under #ifdef CONFIG_NET
and remove the dependency of CONFIG_THERMAL on CONFIG_NET from

Add a commandline parameter "threadirqs" which forces all interrupts except
those marked IRQF_NO_THREAD to run threaded. That's mostly a debug option to
allow retrieving better debug data from crashing interrupt handlers. If
"threadirqs" is not enabled on the kernel command line, then there is no
impact in the interrupt hotpath.
Architecture code needs to select CONFIG_IRQ_FORCED_THREADING after
marking the interrupts which cant be threaded IRQF_NO_THREAD. All
interrupts which have IRQF_TIMER set are implict marked
IRQF_NO_THREAD. Also all PER_CPU interrupts are excluded.
Forced threading hard interrupts also forces all soft interrupt
handling into thread context.
When enabled it might slow down things a bit, but for debugging problems in
interrupt code it's a reasonable penalty as it does not immediately
crash and burn the machine when an interrupt handler is buggy.

When a driver doesn't know how much data a device is going to send,
the buffer size should be at least as big as the endpoint's maxpacket
value. The serial drivers don't follow this rule; many of them
request only 256-byte bulk-in buffers. As a result, they suffer
overflow errors if a high-speed device wants to send a lot of data,
because high-speed bulk endpoints are required to have a maxpacket
size of 512.
This patch (as1450) fixes the problem by using the driver's
bulk_in_size value as a minimum, always allocating buffers no smaller
than the endpoint's maxpacket size.

For level type interrupts we need to track how many threads are on
flight to avoid useless interrupt storms when not all thread handlers
have finished yet. Keep track of the woken threads and only unmask
when there are no more threads in flight.
Yes, I'm lazy and using a bitfield. But not only because I'm lazy, the
main reason is that it's way simpler than using a refcount. A refcount
based solution would need to keep track of various things like
crashing the irq thread, spurious interrupts coming in,
disables/enables, free_irq() and some more. The bitfield keeps the
tracking simple and makes things just work. It's also nicely confined
to the thread code pathes and does not require additional checks all
over the place.
