NFSv4: Check the return value of decode_compound_hdr_arg()

proceed to process the callback. Return a 'GARBAGE_ARGS' rpc-level error to
the caller instead.
If, however, the minor version field is incorrect, then we need to
propagate the resulting NFS4ERR_MINOR_VERS_MISMATCH error back as the

currently, the attributes may in fact get cached for up to one jiffy. This
has been seen to cause corruption in some applications.

The reason for the bug is that the time_in_range() test returns 'true' as
long as the current time lies between nfsi->read_cache_jiffies and
nfsi->read_cache_jiffies + nfsi->attrtimeo. In other words, if jiffies

personality(PER_LINUX32).

On IA-64 box, the syscall personality (PER_LINUX32) has poor performance
because it failed to find the Linux/x86 execution domain. Then it tried
to load the kernel module however it failed always and it used the default
execution domain PER_LINUX instead. Requesting kernel modules is very
expensive. It caused the performance issue. (see the function

show_mem() has no need to print the amount of free swap space manually because
show_free_areas() does this already and is called by the former.

The two outputs only differ in text formatting:

Benjamin Herrenschmidt [Wed, 30 Apr 2008 05:41:48 +0000 (15:41 +1000)]
[POWERPC] vmemmap fixes to use smaller pages

This changes vmemmap to use a different region (region 0xf) of the
address space, and to configure the page size of that region
dynamically at boot.

The problem with the current approach of always using 16M pages is that
it's not well suited to machines that have small amounts of memory such
as small partitions on pseries, or PS3's.

In fact, on the PS3, failure to allocate the 16M page backing vmmemmap
tends to prevent hotplugging the HV's "additional" memory, thus limiting
the available memory even more, from my experience down to something
like 80M total, which makes it really not very useable.

The logic used by my match to choose the vmemmap page size is:

 - If 16M pages are available and there's 1G or more RAM at boot,
   use that size.
 - Else if 64K pages are available, use that
 - Else use 4K pages

I've tested on a POWER6 (16M pages) and on an iSeries POWER3 (4K pages)
and it seems to work fine.

Note that I intend to change the way we organize the kernel regions &
SLBs so the actual region will change from 0xf back to something else at
one point, as I simplify the SLB miss handler, but that will be for a
later patch.

16 years agoRemove blkdev warning triggered by using md
Neil Brown [Wed, 14 May 2008 23:05:54 +0000 (16:05 -0700)]
Remove blkdev warning triggered by using md

As setting and clearing queue flags now requires that we hold a spinlock
on the queue, and as blk_queue_stack_limits is called without that lock,
get the lock inside blk_queue_stack_limits.

For blk_queue_stack_limits to be able to find the right lock, each md
personality needs to set q->queue_lock to point to the appropriate lock.
Those personalities which didn't previously use a spin_lock, us
q->__queue_lock.  So always initialise that lock when allocated.

With this in place, setting/clearing of the QUEUE_FLAG_PLUGGED bit will no
longer cause warnings as it will be clear that the proper lock is held.

16 years agomemory_hotplug: always initialize pageblock bitmap
Heiko Carstens [Wed, 14 May 2008 23:05:52 +0000 (16:05 -0700)]
memory_hotplug: always initialize pageblock bitmap

Trying to online a new memory section that was added via memory hotplug
sometimes results in crashes when the new pages are added via __free_page.
 Reason for that is that the pageblock bitmap isn't initialized and hence
contains random stuff.  That means that get_pageblock_migratetype()
returns also random stuff and therefore

list_add(&page->lru,
&zone->free_area[order].free_list[migratetype]);

in __free_one_page() tries to do a list_add to something that isn't even
necessarily a list.

This happens since 86051ca5eaf5e560113ec7673462804c54284456 ("mm: fix
usemap initialization") which makes sure that the pageblock bitmap gets
only initialized for pages present in a zone.  Unfortunately for hot-added
memory the zones "grow" after the memmap and the pageblock memmap have
been initialized.  Which means that the new pages have an unitialized
bitmap.  To solve this the calls to grow_zone_span() and grow_pgdat_span()
are moved to __add_zone() just before the initialization happens.

The patch also moves the two functions since __add_zone() is the only
caller and I didn't want to add a forward declaration.

fix "lxfb: extend PLL table to support dotclocks below 25 MHz"

 commit 3888d4639e78802c4ec1086127124e890461b9e4
    lxfb: extend PLL table to support dotclocks below 25 MHz

    Extends the PLL frequency table of the AMD Geode-LX frame buffer driver to
    make use of the DIV4 bit, thus adding support for dotclocks between 6 and 25

    intermediate steps between pre-existing frequencies.

The problem was the insertion of intermediate steps into the frequency
table; they would cause the wrong frequency to be matched.  This patch
drops those intermediate frequencies while keeping the sub-25MHz

add match_strlcpy() us it to make v9fs make uname and remotename parsing more robust

match_strcpy() is a somewhat creepy function: the caller needs to make sure
that the destination buffer is big enough, and when he screws up or
forgets, match_strcpy() happily overruns the buffer.

There's exactly one customer: v9fs_parse_options().  I believe it currently
can't overflow its buffer, but that's not exactly obvious.

The source string is a substing of the mount options.  The kernel silently
truncates those to PAGE_SIZE bytes, including the terminating zero.  See
compat_sys_mount() and do_mount().

The destination buffer is obtained from __getname(), which allocates from
name_cachep, which is initialized by vfs_caches_init() for size PATH_MAX.

We're safe as long as PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.  PATH_MAX is 4096.  As far as
I know, the smallest PAGE_SIZE is also 4096.

Here's a patch that makes the code a bit more obviously correct.  It
doesn't depend on PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.

[IA64] Don't reserve crashkernel memory > 4 GB

Some IA64 machines map all cell-local memory above 4 GB (32 bit limit).
However, in most cases, the kernel needs some memory below that limit that is
DMA-capable. So in this machine configuration, the crashkernel will be reserved
above 4 GB.

For machines that use SWIOTLB implementation because they lack an I/O MMU
the low memory is required by the SWIOTLB implementation. In that case,
it doesn't make sense to reserve the crashkernel at all because it's unusable
for kdump.

A special case is the "hpzx1" machine vector. In theory, it has a I/O MMU, so
it can be booted above 4 GB. However, in the kdump case that is not possible
because of changeset 51b58e3e26ebfb8cd56825c4b396ed251f51dec9:

    On HP zx1 machines, the 'machvec=dig' parameter is needed for the kdump
    kernel to avoid problems with the HP sba iommu.  The problem is that during
    the boot of the kdump kernel, the iommu is re-initialized, so in-flight DMA
    from improperly shutdown drivers causes an IOTLB miss which leads to an
    MCA.  With kdump, the idea is to get into the kdump kernel with as little
    code as we can, so shutting down drivers properly is not an option.

    The workaround is to add 'machvec=dig' to the kdump kernel boot parameters.
    This makes the kdump kernel avoid using the sba iommu altogether, leaving
    the IOTLB intact.  Any ongoing DMA falls harmlessly outside the kdump
    kernel.  After the kdump kernel reboots, all devices will have been
    shutdown properly and DMA stopped.

This patch pushes that functionality into the sba iommu initialization
code, so that users won't have to find the obscure documentation telling
them about 'machvec=dig'.

This means that also for hpzx1 it's not possible to boot when all
memory is above the 4 GB limit. So the only machine vectors that can handle
this case are "sn2" and "uv".
