aoe: for performance support larger packet payloads
tAdd adds the ability to work with large packets composed of a number of
segments, using the scatter gather feature of the block layer (biovecs)
and the network layer (skb frag array). The motivation is the performance
gained by using a packet data payload greater than a page size and by
using the network card's scatter gather feature.
Users of the out-of-tree aoe driver already had these changes, but since
early 2011, they have complained of increased memory utilization and
higher CPU utilization during heavy writes.[1] The commit below appears
related, as it disables scatter gather on non-IP protocols inside the
harmonize_features function, even when the NIC supports sg.

nbd: handle discard requests
Add discard support to nbd. If the nbd-server supports discard, it will
send NBD_FLAG_SEND_TRIM to the client. The client will then set the flag
in the kernel via NBD_SET_FLAGS, which tells the kernel to enable discards
for the device (QUEUE_FLAG_DISCARD).
If discard support is enabled, then when the nbd client system receives a
discard request, this will be passed along to the nbd-server. When the
discard request is received by the nbd-server, it will perform:
fallocate(.. FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE ..)

Add a set-flags ioctl, allowing various option flags to be set on an nbd

Flags are typically specified by the nbd-server. During the negotiation

rapidio: fix blocking wait for discovery ready
The following set of patches provides modifications targeting support of
multiple RapidIO master port (mport) devices on a CPU-side of
RapidIO-capable board. While the RapidIO subsystem code has definitions
suitable for multi-controller/multi-net support, the existing
implementation cannot be considered ready for multiple mport
configurations.
=========== NOTES: =============
a) The patches below do not address RapidIO side view of multiport
processing elements defined in Part 6 of RapidIO spec Rev.2.1 (section
6.4.1). These devices have Base Device ID CSR (0x60) and Component Tag
CSR (0x6C) shared by all SRIO ports. For example, Freescale's P4080,
P3041 and P5020 have a dual-port SRIO controller implemented according
the specification. Enumeration/discovery of such devices from RapidIO
side may require device-specific fixups.
b) Devices referenced above may also require implementation specific
code to setup a host device ID for mport device. These operations are
not addressed by patches in this package.
=================================
Details about provided patches:
1. Fix blocking wait for discovery ready
While it does not happen on PowerPC based platforms, there is
possibility of stalled CPU warning dump on x86 based platforms that run
RapidIO discovery process if they wait too long for being enumerated.
Currently users can avoid it by disabling the soft-lockup detector
using "nosoftlockup" kernel parameter OR by ensuring that enumeration
is completed before soft-lockup is detected.
This patch eliminates blocking wait and keeps a scheduler running.
It also is required for patch 3 below which introduces asynchronous
discovery process.
2. Use device lists handling on per-net basis
This patch allows to correctly support multiple RapidIO nets and
resolves possible issues caused by using single global list of devices
during RapidIO system enumeration/discovery. The most common sign of
existing issue is incorrect contents of switch routing tables in
systems with multiple mport controllers while single-port configuration
performs as expected.
The patch does not eliminate the global RapidIO device list but
changes some routines in enumeration/discovery to use per-net device
lists instead. This way compatibility with upper layer RIO routines is
preserved.
3. Run discovery as an asynchronous process
This patch modifies RapidIO initialization routine to asynchronously
run the discovery process for each corresponding mport. This allows
having an arbitrary order of enumerating and discovering mports without
creating a deadlock situation if an enumerator port was registered
after a discovering one.
On boards with multiple discovering mports it also eliminates order
dependency between mports and may reduce total time of RapidIO
subsystem initialization.
Making netID matching to mportID ensures consistent netID assignment
in multiport RapidIO systems with asynchronous discovery process
(global counter implementation is affected by race between threads).
4. Rework RIONET to support multiple RIO master ports
In the current version of the driver rionet_probe() has comment "XXX
Make multi-net safe". Now it is a good time to address this comment.
This patch makes RIONET driver multi-net safe/capable by introducing
per-net lists of RapidIO network peers. It also enables to register
network adapters for all available mport devices.
5. Add destination ID allocation mechanism
The patch replaces a single global destination ID counter with
per-net allocation mechanism to allow independent destID management for
each available RapidIO network. Using bitmap based mechanism instead
of counters allows destination ID release and reuse in systems that
support hot-swap.
This patch:
Fix blocking wait loop in the RapidIO discovery routine to avoid warning
dumps about stalled CPU on x86 platforms.

This patch ensures that TX/RX enable action is applied only to active

device_cgroup: convert device_cgroup internally to policy + exceptions
The original model of device_cgroup is having a whitelist where all the
allowed devices are listed. The problem with this approach is that is
impossible to have the case of allowing everything but few devices.
The reason for that lies in the way the whitelist is handled internally:
since there's only a whitelist, the "all devices" entry would have to be
removed and replaced by the entire list of possible devices but the ones
that are being denied. Since dev_t is 32 bits long, representing the allowed
devices as a bitfield is not memory efficient.
This patch replaces the "whitelist" by a "exceptions" list and the default
policy is kept as "deny_all" variable in dev_cgroup structure.
The current interface determines that whenever "a" is written to devices.allow
or devices.deny, the entry masking all devices will be added or removed,
respectively. This behavior is kept and it's what will determine the default
policy:
# cat devices.list
a *:* rwm
# echo a >devices.deny
# cat devices.list
# echo a >devices.allow
# cat devices.list
a *:* rwm
The interface is also preserved. For example, if one wants to block only access
to /dev/null:
# ls -l /dev/null
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 Jul 24 16:17 /dev/null
# echo a >devices.allow
# echo "c 1:3 rwm" >devices.deny
# cat /dev/null
cat: /dev/null: Operation not permitted
# echo >/dev/null
bash: /dev/null: Operation not permitted
mknod /tmp/null c 1 3
mknod: `/tmp/null': Operation not permitted
# echo "c 1:3 r" >devices.allow
# cat /dev/null
# echo >/dev/null
bash: /dev/null: Operation not permitted
mknod /tmp/null c 1 3
mknod: `/tmp/null': Operation not permitted
# echo "c 1:3 rw" >devices.allow
# echo >/dev/null
# cat /dev/null
# mknod /tmp/null c 1 3
mknod: `/tmp/null': Operation not permitted
# echo "c 1:3 rwm" >devices.allow
# echo >/dev/null
# cat /dev/null
# mknod /tmp/null c 1 3

fat (exportfs): move NFS support code
Under memory pressure, the system may evict dentries from cache. When the
FAT driver receives a NFS request involving an evicted dentry, it is
unable to reconnect it to the filesystem root. This causes the request to
fail, often with ENOENT.
This is partially due to ineffectiveness of the current FAT NFS
implementation, and partially due to an unimplemented fh_to_parent method.
The latter can cause file accesses to fail on shares exported with
subtree_check.
This patch set provides the FAT driver with the ability to
reconnect dentries. NFS file handle generation and lookups are simplified
and made congruent with ext2.
Testing has involved a memory-starved virtual machine running 3.5-rc5 that
exports a ~2 GB vfat filesystem containing a kernel tree (~770 MB, ~40000
files, 9 levels). Both 'cp -r' and 'ls -lR' operations were performed
from a client, some overlapping, some consecutive. Exports with
'subtree_check' and 'no_subtree_check' have been tested.
Note that while this patch set improves FAT's NFS support, it does not
eliminate ESTALE errors completely.
The following should be considered for NFS clients who are sensitive to ESTALE:
* Mounting with lookupcache=none
Unfortunately this can degrade performance severely, particularly for deep
filesystems.
* Incorporating VFS patches to retry ESTALE failures on the client-side,
such as https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/29/381
* Handling ESTALE errors in client application code
This patch:
Move NFS-related code into its own C file. No functional changes.

rtc_sysfs_show_hctosys(): display 0 if resume failed
Without this patch /sys/class/rtc/$CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS_DEVICE/hctosys
contains a 1 (meaning "This rtc was used to initialize the system
clock") even if setting the time by do_settimeofday() at bootup failed.
The RTC can also be used to set the clock on resume, if it did 1,
otherwise 0. Previously there was no indication if the RTC was used
to set the clock in resume.
This uses only CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS_DEVICE for conditional compilation
instead of it and CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS to be more consistent.
rtc_hctosys_ret was moved to class.c so class.c no longer depends on
hctosys.c.

lib/vsprintf.c: improve standard conformance of sscanf()
Xen's pciback points out a couple of deficiencies with vsscanf()'s
standard conformance:
- Trailing character matching cannot be checked by the caller: With a
format string of "(%x:%x.%x) %n" absence of the closing parenthesis
cannot be checked, as input of "(00:00.0)" doesn't cause the %n to be
evaluated (because of the code not skipping white space before the
trailing %n).
- The parameter corresponding to a trailing %n could get filled even if
there was a matching error: With a format string of "(%x:%x.%x)%n",
input of "(00:00.0]" would still fill the respective variable pointed to
(and hence again make the mismatch non-detectable by the caller).
This patch aims at fixing those, but leaves other non-conforming aspects
of it untouched, among them these possibly relevant ones:
- improper handling of the assignment suppression character '*' (blindly
discarding all succeeding non-white space from the format and input
strings),
- not honoring conversion specifiers for %n, - not recognizing the C99
conversion specifier 't' (recognized by vsprintf()).

lib/spinlock_debug: avoid livelock in do_raw_spin_lock()
The logic in do_raw_spin_lock() attempts to acquire a spinlock by invoking
arch_spin_trylock() in a loop with a delay between each attempt. Now
consider the following situation in a 2 CPU system:
1. CPU-0 continually acquires and releases a spinlock in a
tight loop; it stays in this loop until some condition X
is satisfied. X can only be satisfied by another CPU.
2. CPU-1 tries to acquire the same spinlock, in an attempt
to satisfy the aforementioned condition X. However, it
never sees the unlocked value of the lock because the
debug spinlock code uses trylock instead of just lock;
it checks at all the wrong moments - whenever CPU-0 has
locked the lock.
Now in the absence of debug spinlocks, the architecture specific spinlock
code can correctly allow CPU-1 to wait in a "queue" (e.g., ticket
spinlocks), ensuring that it acquires the lock at some point. However,
with the debug spinlock code, livelock can easily occur due to the use of
try_lock, which obviously cannot put the CPU in that "queue". This
queueing mechanism is implemented in both x86 and ARM spinlock code.
Note that the situation mentioned above is not hypothetical. A real
problem was encountered where CPU-0 was running hrtimer_cancel with
interrupts disabled, and CPU-1 was attempting to run the hrtimer that
CPU-0 was trying to cancel.
Address this by actually attempting arch_spin_lock once it is suspected
that there is a spinlock lockup. If we're in a situation that is
described above, the arch_spin_lock should succeed; otherwise other
timeout mechanisms (e.g., watchdog) should alert the system of a lockup.
Therefore, if there is a genuine system problem and the spinlock can't be
acquired, the end result (irrespective of this change being present) is
the same. If there is a livelock caused by the debug code, this change
will allow the lock to be acquired, depending on the implementation of the
lower level arch specific spinlock code.

genalloc: make it possible to use a custom allocation algorithm
Premit use of another algorithm than the default first-fit one. For
example a custom algorithm could be used to manage alignment requirements.
As I can't predict all the possible requirements/needs for all allocation
uses cases, I add a "free" field 'void *data' to pass any needed
information to the allocation function. For example 'data' could be used
to handle a structure where you store the alignment, the expected memory
bank, the requester device, or any information that could influence the
allocation algorithm.
An usage example may look like this:
struct my_pool_constraints {
int align;
int bank;
...
};
unsigned long my_custom_algo(unsigned long *map, unsigned long size,
unsigned long start, unsigned int nr, void *data)
{
struct my_pool_constraints *constraints = data;
...
deal with allocation contraints
...
return the index in bitmap where perform the allocation
}
void create_my_pool()
{
struct my_pool_constraints c;
struct gen_pool *pool = gen_pool_create(...);
gen_pool_add(pool, ...);
gen_pool_set_algo(pool, my_custom_algo, &c);
}
Add of best-fit algorithm function:
most of the time best-fit is slower then first-fit but memory fragmentation
is lower. The random buffer allocation/free tests don't show any arithmetic
relation between the allocation time and fragmentation but the
best-fit algorithm
is sometime able to perform the allocation when the first-fit can't.
This new algorithm help to remove static allocations on ESRAM, a small but
fast on-chip RAM of few KB, used for high-performance uses cases like DMA
linked lists, graphic accelerators, encoders/decoders. On the Ux500
(in the ARM tree) we have define 5 ESRAM banks of 128 KB each and use of
static allocations becomes unmaintainable:

I want to use genalloc to do dynamic allocations but I need to be able to
fine tune the allocation algorithm. I my case best-fit algorithm give
better results than first-fit, but it will not be true for every use case.

lib/Kconfig.debug: adjust hard-lockup related Kconfig options
The main option should not appear in the resulting .config when the

setting the default from the combined dependency values).
The sub-options should depend on the main option rather than a more
generic higher level one.

lib/parser.c: avoid overflow in match_number()
The result of converting an integer value to another signed integer type
that's unable to represent the original value is implementation defined.
(See notes in section 6.3.1.3 of the C standard.)
In match_number(), the result of simple_strtol() (which returns type long)
is assigned to a value of type int.
Instead, handle the result of simple_strtol() in a well-defined way, and
return -ERANGE if the result won't fit in the int variable used to hold
the parsed result.
No current callers pay attention to the particular error value returned,
so this additional return code shouldn't do any harm.
