2010-01-12lib: Introduce generic list_sort functionDave Chinner
There are two copies of list_sort() in the tree already, one in the DRM code, another in ubifs. Now XFS needs this as well. Create a generic list_sort() function from the ubifs version and convert existing users to it so we don't end up with yet another copy in the tree.

2010-01-11core, x86: make LIST_POISON less deadlyAvi Kivity
The list macros use LIST_POISON1 and LIST_POISON2 as undereferencable pointers in order to trap erronous use of freed list_heads. Unfortunately userspace can arrange for those pointers to actually be dereferencable, potentially turning an oops to an expolit. To avoid this allow architectures (currently x86_64 only) to override the default values for these pointers with truly-undereferencable values. This is easy on x86_64 as the virtual address space is large and contains areas that cannot be mapped. Other 64-bit architectures will likely find similar unmapped ranges.

2010-01-11lib: add support for LZO-compressed kernelsAlbin Tonnerre
This patch series adds generic support for creating and extracting LZO-compressed kernel images, as well as support for using such images on the x86 and ARM architectures, and support for creating and using LZO-compressed initrd and initramfs images. Russell King said: : Testing on a Cortex A9 model: : - lzo decompressor is 65% of the time gzip takes to decompress a kernel : - lzo kernel is 9% larger than a gzip kernel : : which I'm happy to say confirms your figures when comparing the two. : : However, when comparing your new gzip code to the old gzip code: : - new is 99% of the size of the old code : - new takes 42% of the time to decompress than the old code : : What this means is that for a proper comparison, the results get even better: : - lzo is 7.5% larger than the old gzip'd kernel image : - lzo takes 28% of the time that the old gzip code took : : So the expense seems definitely worth the effort. The only reason I : can think of ever using gzip would be if you needed the additional : compression (eg, because you have limited flash to store the image.) : : I would argue that the default for ARM should therefore be LZO. This patch: The lzo compressor is worse than gzip at compression, but faster at extraction. Here are some figures for an ARM board I'm working on: Uncompressed size: 3.24Mo gzip 1.61Mo 0.72s lzo 1.75Mo 0.48s So for a compression ratio that is still relatively close to gzip, it's much faster to extract, at least in that case. This part contains: - Makefile routine to support lzo compression - Fixes to the existing lzo compressor so that it can be used in compressed kernels - wrapper around the existing lzo1x_decompress, as it only extracts one block at a time, while we need to extract a whole file here - config dialog for kernel compression [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: cleanup] Signed-off-by: Albin Tonnerre <albin.tonnerre@free-electrons.com> Tested-by: Wu Zhangjin <wuzhangjin@gmail.com> Acked-by: "H.

2010-01-06NOMMU: Avoiding duplicate icache flushes of shared mapsMike Frysinger
When working with FDPIC, there are many shared mappings of read-only code regions between applications (the C library, applet packages like busybox, etc.), but the current do_mmap_pgoff() function will issue an icache flush whenever a VMA is added to an MM instead of only doing it when the map is initially created. The flush can instead be done when a region is first mmapped PROT_EXEC. Note that we may not rely on the first mapping of a region being executable - it's possible for it to be PROT_READ only, so we have to remember whether we've flushed the region or not, and then flush the entire region when a bit of it is made executable. However, this also affects the brk area. That will no longer be executable. We can mprotect() it to PROT_EXEC on MPU-mode kernels, but for NOMMU mode kernels, when it increases the brk allocation, making sys_brk() flush the extra from the icache should suffice. The brk area probably isn't used by NOMMU programs since the brk area can only use up the leavings from the stack allocation, where the stack allocation is larger than requested.

2010-01-04PCI/PM: Use per-device D3 delaysRafael J. Wysocki
It turns out that some PCI devices require extra delays when changing power state from D3 to D0 (and the other way around). Although this is against the PCI specification, we can handle it quite easily by allowing drivers to define arbitrary D3 delays for devices known to require extra time for switching power states. Introduce additional field d3_delay in struct pci_dev and use it to store the value of the device's D0->D3 delay, in miliseconds. Make the PCI PM core code use the per-device d3_delay unless pci_pm_d3_delay is greater (in which case the latter is used). [This also allows the driver to specify d3_delay shorter than the 10 ms required by the PCI standard if the device is known to be able to handle that.] Make the sky2 driver set d3_delay to 150 for devices handled by it. Fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14730 which is a listed regression from 2.6.30. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl> Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org>

2010-01-02reiserfs: Warn on lock relax if taken recursivelyFrederic Weisbecker
When we relax the reiserfs lock to avoid creating unwanted dependencies against others locks while grabbing these, we want to ensure it has not been taken recursively, otherwise the lock won't be really relaxed. Only its depth will be decreased. The unwanted dependency would then actually happen. To prevent from that, add a reiserfs_lock_check_recursive() call in the places that need it.

2010-01-02reiserfs: Fix reiserfs lock <-> i_xattr_sem dependency inversionFrederic Weisbecker
i_xattr_sem depends on the reiserfs lock. But after we grab i_xattr_sem, we may relax/relock the reiserfs lock while waiting on a freezed filesystem, creating a dependency inversion between the two locks. In order to avoid the i_xattr_sem -> reiserfs lock dependency, let's create a reiserfs_down_read_safe() that acts like reiserfs_mutex_lock_safe(): relax the reiserfs lock while grabbing another lock to avoid undesired dependencies induced by the heivyweight reiserfs lock.

In the first iteration, those distributors might want to ship the old stack also (but blacklisted) as a fallback for their users if unforeseen problems with the newer replacement drivers are encountered. The older FireWire stack contains several known problems which are not going to be fixed; instead, those issues are addressed by the new stack. An incomplete list of these issues is kept in bugzilla: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10046 We have a guide on migration from the older to the newer stack: http://ieee1394.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Juju_Migration

2009-12-29firewire: fix use of multiple AV/C devices, allow multiple FCP listenersClemens Ladisch
Control of more than one AV/C device at once --- e.g. camcorders, tape decks, audio devices, TV tuners --- failed or worked only unreliably, depending on driver implementation. This affected kernelspace and userspace drivers alike and was caused by firewire-core's inability to accept multiple registrations of FCP listeners. The fix allows multiple address handlers to be registered for the FCP command and response registers. When a request for these registers is received, all handlers are invoked, and the Firewire response is generated by the core and not by any handler. The cdev API does not change, i.e., userspace is still expected to send a response for FCP requests; this response is silently ignored.

2009-12-25net: restore ip source validationJamal Hadi Salim
when using policy routing and the skb mark: there are cases where a back path validation requires us to use a different routing table for src ip validation than the one used for mapping ingress dst ip. One such a case is transparent proxying where we pretend to be the destination system and therefore the local table is used for incoming packets but possibly a main table would be used on outbound.

Looks like I need to document that. Error(include/linux/kfifo.h:76): duplicate section name 'Note' Warning(include/linux/kfifo.h:88): Excess function parameter 'size' description in 'INIT_KFIFO' Error(include/linux/kfifo.h:101): duplicate section name 'Note' Warning(include/linux/kfifo.h:257): No description found for parameter 'fifo' (many of this last type, from internal functions) Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Cc: Stefani Seibold <stefani@seibold.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2009-12-23Fix usb_serial_probe() problem introduced by the recent kfifo changesStefani Seibold
The USB serial code was a new user of the kfifo API, and it was missed when porting things to the new kfifo API. Please make the write_fifo in place. Here is my patch to fix the regression and full ported version. Signed-off-by: Stefani Seibold <stefani@seibold.net> Reported-and-tested-by: Rafael J.

2009-12-23fs-writeback: Add helper function to start writeback if idleEric Sandeen
ext4, at least, would like to start pushing on writeback if it starts to get close to ENOSPC when reserving worst-case blocks for delalloc writes. Writing out delalloc data will convert those worst-case predictions into usually smaller actual usage, freeing up space before we hit ENOSPC based on this speculation. Thanks to Jens for the suggestion for the helper function, & the naming help. I've made the helper return status on whether writeback was started even though I don't plan to use it in the ext4 patch; it seems like it would be potentially useful to test this in some cases.

2009-12-23ext3: Replace lock/unlock_super() with an explicit lock for resizingEric Sandeen
Use a separate lock to protect s_groups_count and the other block group descriptors which get changed via an on-line resize operation, so we can stop overloading the use of lock_super().
