The network developers have seen sporadic allocations resulting in objects
coming from unexpected NUMA nodes despite asking for objects from a
specific node.
This is due to get_partial() calling get_any_partial() if partial
slabs are exhausted for a node even if a node was specified and therefore
one would expect allocations only from the specified node.
get_any_partial() sporadically may return a slab from a foreign
node to gradually reduce the size of partial lists on remote nodes
and thereby reduce total memory use for a slab cache.
The behavior is controlled by the remote_defrag_ratio of each cache.
Strictly speaking this is permitted behavior since __GFP_THISNODE was
not specified for the allocation but it is certain surprising.
This patch makes sure that the remote defrag behavior only occurs
if no node was specified.

Platform parameter to enable automatic FIFO configuration when

When this mode is selected, the controls for changing
nSample (in Mode1), and UTHR (in Mode7) are not added.
The driver configures the FIFO configuration based on
the stream's period size in a way, that every burst will
read period size of data from the host.
In Mode7 we need to use a formula, which gives close enough

This looks like a big change, but in reality its only a single line of actual
code change, the rest is just moving a function to before its new caller.
The "try" flag for glocks is a rather subtle and delicate setting since it
requires that the state machine tries just hard enough to ensure that it has
a good chance of getting the requested lock, but no so hard that the
request can land up blocked behind another.
The patch adds in an additional check which will fail any queued try
locks if there is another request blocking the try lock request which
is not granted and compatible, nor in progress already. The check is made
only after all pending locks which may be granted have been granted.
I've checked this with the reproducer for the reported flock bug which
this is intended to fix, and it now passes.

This patch implements a wait for the journal id in the case that it has
not been specified on the command line. This is to allow the future
removal of the mount.gfs2 helper. The journal id would instead be
directly communicated by gfs_controld to the file system. Here is a
comparison of the two systems:
Current:
1. mount calls mount.gfs2
2. mount.gfs2 connects to gfs_controld to retrieve the journal id
3. mount.gfs2 adds the journal id to the mount command line and calls
the mount system call
4. gfs_controld receives the status of the mount request via a uevent
Proposed:
1. mount calls the mount system call (no mount.gfs2 helper)
2. gfs_controld receives a uevent for a gfs2 fs which it doesn't know
about already
3. gfs_controld assigns a journal id to it via sysfs
4. the mount system call then completes as normal (sending a uevent
according to status)
The advantage of the proposed system is that it is completely backward
compatible with the current system both at the kernel and at the
userland levels. The "first" parameter can also be set the same way,
with the restriction that it must be set before the journal id is
assigned.
In addition, if mount becomes stuck waiting for a reply from
gfs_controld which never arrives, then it is killable and will abort the
mount gracefully.

HW breakpoints events stopped working correctly with kgdb
as a result of commit: 018cbffe68
(Merge commit 'v2.6.33' into perf/core).
The regression occurred because the behavior changed for setting
NOTIFY_STOP as the return value to the die notifier if the breakpoint
was known to the HW breakpoint API. Because kgdb is using the HW
breakpoint API to register HW breakpoints slots, it must also now
implement the overflow_handler call back else kgdb does not get to see
the events from the die notifier.
The kgdb_ll_trap function will be changed to be general purpose code
which can allow an easy way to implement the hw_breakpoint API
overflow call back.

NULL pointer dereferences in ib_cm_init_qp_attr() were seen by some
users. From a crash dump, I determined that we died in
cm_init_qp_rts_attr() (it's inlined, so it doesn't show up in the
traceback) on the line labeled below:
static int cm_init_qp_rts_attr(struct cm_id_private *cm_id_priv,
struct ib_qp_attr *qp_attr,
int *qp_attr_mask)
{
........
if (cm_id_priv->id.lap_state == IB_CM_LAP_UNINIT) {
.....
} else {
*qp_attr_mask = IB_QP_ALT_PATH | IB_QP_PATH_MIG_STATE;
qp_attr->alt_port_num = cm_id_priv->alt_av.port->port_num; <-die
The problem is that the rdma_cm can call ib_send_cm_mra() after a
connection has been established. The ib_cm incorrectly assumes that
the MRA is in response to a LAP (load alternate path) message, even
though no LAP message has been received. The ib_cm needs to check the
lap_state before sending an MRA if the cm_id state is established.

kmemleak ignores page_alloc() and so believes the final sub-page
allocation using the plain kmalloc is decoupled and lost. This leads to
lots of false-positives with code that uses scatterlists.
The options seem to be either to tell kmemleak that the kmalloc is not
leaked or to notify kmemleak of the page allocations. The danger of the
first approach is that we may hide a real leak, so choose the latter
approach (of which I am not sure of the downsides).

This reverts this commit. While in theory the change is
correct the patch does not address current assumptions made
by some drivers, one which is definitley affected is ath9k.
Prior to this change the scan complete callback would be
called after we returned to the home channel and configured
the hardware RX filters. After this change we call the scan
complete callback prior to both the hw config and the config
filter. At least for ath9k this breaks quite a few assumptions
on the callback, leading to disconnects to the AP after every scan
making the driver pretty useless on STA mode. The goal behind
this commit was to address the now understood spurious warnings
from ath9k and mac80211_hwsim on scanning on two wiphys at the
same time but we have now supressed these and will address this
issue in the next kernel release.
When fixing this for good next we must first review the other
driver's dependence on this logic and perhaps consider removal
of the scan complete callback all together.

When issuing two consecutive scans you could often end up

This message is due to a race in mac80211 but addressing
that race requires some more major changes on the driver
and perhaps optimizations on mac80211 like removing the
scan complete callback alltogether. Its too late to address
this this kernel release so supress the complaint and annotate
this needs fixing for later.

Errata are defined using the AMD_LEGACY_ERRATUM() or AMD_OSVW_ERRATUM()
macros. The latter is intended for newer errata that have an OSVW id
assigned, which it takes as first argument. Both take a variable number
of family-specific model-stepping ranges created by AMD_MODEL_RANGE().
Iff an erratum has an OSVW id, OSVW is available on the CPU, and the
OSVW id is known to the hardware, it is used to determine whether an
erratum is present. Otherwise, the model-stepping ranges are matched
against the current CPU to find out whether the erratum applies.
For certain special errata, the code using this framework might have to
conduct further checks to make sure an erratum is really (not) present.

Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
Since the decrementer and timekeeping code was moved over to using
the generic clockevents and timekeeping infrastructure, several
variables and functions have been obsolete and effectively unused.
This deletes them.
In particular, wakeup_decrementer() is no longer needed since the
generic code reprograms the decrementer as part of the process of
resuming the timekeeping code, which happens during sysdev resume.
Thus the wakeup_decrementer calls in the suspend_enter methods for
52xx platforms have been removed. The call in the powermac cpu
frequency change code has been replaced by set_dec(1), which will
cause a timer interrupt as soon as interrupts are enabled, and the
generic code will then reprogram the decrementer with the correct
value.
This also simplifies the generic_suspend_en/disable_irqs functions
and makes them static since they are not referenced outside time.c.
The preempt_enable/disable calls are removed because the generic
code has disabled all but the boot cpu at the point where these
functions are called, so we can't be moved to another cpu.

Currently it is possible for userspace to see the result of
gettimeofday() going backwards by 1 microsecond, assuming that
userspace is using the gettimeofday() in the VDSO. The VDSO
gettimeofday() algorithm computes the time in "xsecs", which are
units of 2^-20 seconds, or approximately 0.954 microseconds,
using the algorithm
now = (timebase - tb_orig_stamp) * tb_to_xs + stamp_xsec
and then converts the time in xsecs to seconds and microseconds.
The kernel updates the tb_orig_stamp and stamp_xsec values every
tick in update_vsyscall(). If the length of the tick is not an
integer number of xsecs, then some precision is lost in converting
the current time to xsecs. For example, with CONFIG_HZ=1000, the
tick is 1ms long, which is 1048.576 xsecs. That means that
stamp_xsec will advance by either 1048 or 1049 on each tick.
With the right conditions, it is possible for userspace to get
(timebase - tb_orig_stamp) * tb_to_xs being 1049 if the kernel is
slightly late in updating the vdso_datapage, and then for stamp_xsec
to advance by 1048 when the kernel does update it, and for userspace
to then see (timebase - tb_orig_stamp) * tb_to_xs being zero due to
integer truncation. The result is that time appears to go backwards
by 1 microsecond.
To fix this we change the VDSO gettimeofday to use a new field in the
VDSO datapage which stores the nanoseconds part of the time as a
fractional number of seconds in a 0.32 binary fraction format.
(Or put another way, as a 32-bit number in units of 0.23283 ns.)
This is convenient because we can use the mulhwu instruction to
convert it to either microseconds or nanoseconds.
Since it turns out that computing the time of day using this new field
is simpler than either using stamp_xsec (as gettimeofday does) or
stamp_xtime.tv_nsec (as clock_gettime does), this converts both
gettimeofday and clock_gettime to use the new field. The existing
__do_get_tspec function is converted to use the new field and take
a parameter in r7 that indicates the desired resolution, 1,000,000
for microseconds or 1,000,000,000 for nanoseconds. The __do_get_xsec
function is then unused and is deleted.
The new algorithm is
now = ((timebase - tb_orig_stamp) << 12) * tb_to_xs
+ (stamp_xtime_seconds << 32) + stamp_sec_fraction
with 'now' in units of 2^-32 seconds. That is then converted to
seconds and either microseconds or nanoseconds with
seconds = now >> 32
partseconds = ((now & 0xffffffff) * resolution) >> 32
The 32-bit VDSO code also makes a further simplification: it ignores
the bottom 32 bits of the tb_to_xs value, which is a 0.64 format binary
fraction. Doing so gets rid of 4 multiply instructions. Assuming
a timebase frequency of 1GHz or less and an update interval of no
more than 10ms, the upper 32 bits of tb_to_xs will be at least
4503599, so the error from ignoring the low 32 bits will be at most
2.2ns, which is more than an order of magnitude less than the time
taken to do gettimeofday or clock_gettime on our fastest processors,
so there is no possibility of seeing inconsistent values due to this.
This also moves update_gtod() down next to its only caller, and makes
update_vsyscall use the time passed in via the wall_time argument rather
than accessing xtime directly. At present, wall_time always points to
xtime, but that could change in future.
