2009-03-17nfsd: nfsd should drop CAP_MKNOD for non-rootJ. Bruce Fields1-2/+4
Since creating a device node is normally an operation requiring special privilege, Igor Zhbanov points out that it is surprising (to say the least) that a client can, for example, create a device node on a filesystem exported with root_squash. So, make sure CAP_MKNOD is among the capabilities dropped when an nfsd thread handles a request from a non-root user.

2009-03-10[SCSI] fcoe: Out of order tx frames was causing several check condition SCSI ↵Vasu Dev1-0/+1
status frames followed by these errors in log. [sdp] Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_SENSE,SUGGEST_OK [sdp] Sense Key : Aborted Command [current] [sdp] Add. Sense: Data phase error This was causing some test apps to exit due to write failure under heavy load. This was due to a race around adding and removing tx frame skb in fcoe_pending_queue, Chris Leech helped me to find that brief unlocking period when pulling skb from fcoe_pending_queue in various contexts (fcoe_watchdog and fcoe_xmit) and then adding skb back into fcoe_pending_queue up on a failed fcoe_start_io could change skb/tx frame order in fcoe_pending_queue. Thanks Chris. This patch allows only single context to pull skb from fcoe_pending_queue at any time to prevent above described ordering issue/race by use of fcoe_pending_queue_active flag. This patch simplified fcoe_watchdog with modified fcoe_check_wait_queue by use of FCOE_LOW_QUEUE_DEPTH instead previously used several conditionals to clear and set lp->qfull. I think FCOE_MAX_QUEUE_DEPTH with FCOE_LOW_QUEUE_DEPTH will work better in re/setting lp->qfull and these could be fine tuned for performance.

2009-03-09Revert "[CPUFREQ] Disable sysfs ui for p4-clockmod."Dave Jones1-1/+0
This reverts commit e088e4c9cdb618675874becb91b2fd581ee707e6. Removing the sysfs interface for p4-clockmod was flagged as a regression in bug 12826. Course of action: - Find out the remaining causes of overheating, and fix them if possible. ACPI should be doing the right thing automatically. If it isn't, we need to fix that. - mark p4-clockmod ui as deprecated - try again with the removal in six months. It's not really feasible to printk about the deprecation, because it needs to happen at all the sysfs entry points, which means adding a lot of strcmp("p4-clockmod".. calls to the core, which.. bleuch.

This allows any rport ELS to retry on LS_RJT. The rport error handling would only retry on resource allocation failures and exchange timeouts. I have a target that will occasionally reject PLOGI when we do a quick LOGO/PLOGI. When a critical ELS was rejected, libfc would fail silently leaving the rport in a dead state. The retry count and delay are managed by fc_rport_error_retry. If the retry count is exceeded fc_rport_error will be called. When retrying is not the correct course of action, fc_rport_error can be called directly.

2009-03-06[SCSI] libfc, fcoe: fixed locking issues with lport->lp_mutex around ↵Vasu Dev1-10/+2
lport->link_status The fcoe_xmit could call fc_pause in case the pending skb queue len is larger than FCOE_MAX_QUEUE_DEPTH, the fc_pause was trying to grab lport->lp_muex to change lport->link_status and that had these issues :- 1. The fcoe_xmit was getting called with bh disabled, thus causing "BUG: scheduling while atomic" when grabbing lport->lp_muex with bh disabled. 2. fc_linkup and fc_linkdown function calls lport_enter function with lport->lp_mutex held and these enter function in turn calls fcoe_xmit to send lport related FC frame, e.g. fc_linkup => fc_lport_enter_flogi to send flogi req. In this case grabbing the same lport->lp_mutex again in fc_puase from fcoe_xmit would cause deadlock. The lport->lp_mutex was used for setting FC_PAUSE in fcoe_xmit path but FC_PAUSE bit was not used anywhere beside just setting and clear this bit in lport->link_status, instead used a separate field qfull in fc_lport to eliminate need for lport->lp_mutex to track pending queue full condition and in turn avoid above described two locking issues. Also added check for lp->qfull in fc_fcp_lport_queue_ready to trigger SCSI_MLQUEUE_HOST_BUSY when lp->qfull is set to prevent more scsi-ml cmds while lp->qfull is set. This patch eliminated FC_LINK_UP and FC_PAUSE and instead used dedicated fields in fc_lport for this, this simplified all related conditional code. Also removed fc_pause and fc_unpause functions and instead used newly added lport->qfull directly in fcoe.

2009-03-06x86, percpu: setup reserved percpu area for x86_64Tejun Heo1-23/+12
Impact: fix relocation overflow during module load x86_64 uses 32bit relocations for symbol access and static percpu symbols whether in core or modules must be inside 2GB of the percpu segement base which the dynamic percpu allocator doesn't guarantee. This patch makes x86_64 reserve PERCPU_MODULE_RESERVE bytes in the first chunk so that module percpu areas are always allocated from the first chunk which is always inside the relocatable range. This problem exists for any percpu allocator but is easily triggered when using the embedding allocator because the second chunk is located beyond 2GB on it. This patch also changes the meaning of PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE such that it only indicates the size of the area to reserve for dynamic allocation as static and dynamic areas can be separate. New PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVED is increased by 4k for both 32 and 64bits as the reserved area separation eats away some allocatable space and having slightly more headroom (currently between 4 and 8k after minimal boot sans module area) makes sense for common case performance. x86_32 can address anywhere from anywhere and doesn't need reserving. Mike Galbraith first reported the problem first and bisected it to the embedding percpu allocator commit.

2009-03-06percpu, module: implement reserved allocation and use it for module percpu ↵Tejun Heo1-4/+6
variables Impact: add reserved allocation functionality and use it for module percpu variables This patch implements reserved allocation from the first chunk. When setting up the first chunk, arch can ask to set aside certain number of bytes right after the core static area which is available only through a separate reserved allocator. This will be used primarily for module static percpu variables on architectures with limited relocation range to ensure that the module perpcu symbols are inside the relocatable range. If reserved area is requested, the first chunk becomes reserved and isn't available for regular allocation. If the first chunk also includes piggy-back dynamic allocation area, a separate chunk mapping the same region is created to serve dynamic allocation. The first one is called static first chunk and the second dynamic first chunk. Although they share the page map, their different area map initializations guarantee they serve disjoint areas according to their purposes. If arch doesn't setup reserved area, reserved allocation is handled like any other allocation. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <[email protected]>
2009-03-06percpu: use negative for auto for pcpu_setup_first_chunk() argumentsTejun Heo1-2/+3
Impact: argument semantic cleanup In pcpu_setup_first_chunk(), zero @unit_size and @dyn_size meant auto-sizing. It's okay for @unit_size as 0 doesn't make sense but 0 dynamic reserve size is valid. Alos, if arch @dyn_size is calculated from other parameters, it might end up passing in 0 @dyn_size and malfunction when the size is automatically adjusted. This patch makes both @unit_size and @dyn_size ssize_t and use -1 for auto sizing. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <[email protected]>
