6307091fe6 [XFS] Avoid using inodes that haven't been completely initialised
The radix tree walks in xfs_sync_inodes_ag and xfs_qm_dqrele_all_inodes()
can find inodes that are still undergoing initialisation. Avoid
them by checking for the the XFS_INEW() flag once we have a reference
on the inode. This flag is cleared once the inode is properly initialised.

cb4f0d1d42 [XFS] fix uninitialised variable bug in dquot release
gcc on ARM warns about an using an uninitialised variable
in xfs_qm_dqrele_all_inodes(). This is a real bug, but gcc
on x86_64 is not reporting this warning so it went unnoticed.

Fix the bug by bring the inode radix tree walk code up to
date with xfs_sync_inodes_ag().

644c3567d1 [XFS] handle memory allocation failures during log initialisation
When there is no memory left in the system, xfs_buf_get_noaddr()
can fail. If this happens at mount time during xlog_alloc_log()
we fail to catch the error and oops.

Catch the error from xfs_buf_get_noaddr(), and allow other memory
allocations to fail and catch those errors too. Report the error
to the console and fail the mount with ENOMEM.

Tested by manually injecting errors into xfs_buf_get_noaddr() and
xlog_alloc_log().

Version 2:
o remove unnecessary casts of the returned pointer from kmem_zalloc()

6c2e94033d x86: apic honour irq affinity which was set in early boot
setup_ioapic_dest() is called after the non boot cpus have been
brought up. It sets the irq affinity of all already configured
interrupts to all cpus and ignores affinity settings which were
done by the early bootup code.

If the IRQ_NO_BALANCING or IRQ_AFFINITY_SET flags are set then use the
affinity mask from the irq descriptor and not TARGET_CPUS.

Kumar Galak noticed that commit
1840475676 (genirq: Expose default irq

overrides an already set affinity setting across a free /
request_irq(). Happens e.g. with ifdown/ifup of a network device.

Change the logic to mark the affinities as set and keep them
intact. This also fixes the unlocked access to irq_desc in

The "Exclude staging drivers" question is there so that we don't build

irritating when you've already said "no" to staging drivers earlier.

There is absolutely no point in declining twice - once you've declined
the staging drivers, you're done.

So make the second question depend on the first question having been
answered in the affirmative.

b726e923ea Fix nfsd truncation of readdir results
Commit 8d7c4203 "nfsd: fix failure to set eof in readdir in some
situations" introduced a bug: on a directory in an exported ext3
filesystem with dir_index unset, a READDIR will only return about 250
entries, even if the directory was larger.

Bisected it back to this commit; reverting it fixes the problem.

It turns out that in this case ext3 reads a block at a time, then
returns from readdir, which means we can end up with buf.full==0 but
with more entries in the directory still to be read.  Before 8d7c4203
(but after c002a6c797 "Optimise NFS readdir hack slightly"), this would
cause us to return the READDIR result immediately, but with the eof bit
unset.  That could cause a performance regression (because the client
would need more roundtrips to the server to read the whole directory),
but no loss in correctness, since the cleared eof bit caused the client
to send another readdir.  After 8d7c4203, the setting of the eof bit
made this a correctness problem.

So, move nfserr_eof into the loop and remove the buf.full check so that
we loop until buf.used==0.  The following seems to do the right thing
and reduces the network traffic since we don't return a READDIR result
until the buffer is full.

Tested on an empty directory & large directory; eof is properly sent and
there are no more short buffers.

6209344f5a net: unix: fix inflight counting bug in garbage collector
Previously I assumed that the receive queues of candidates don't
change during the GC.  This is only half true, nothing can be received
from the queues (see comment in unix_gc()), but buffers could be added
through the other half of the socket pair, which may still have file
descriptors referring to it.

This can result in inc_inflight_move_tail() erronously increasing the
"inflight" counter for a unix socket for which dec_inflight() wasn't
previously called.  This in turn can trigger the "BUG_ON(total_refs <
inflight_refs)" in a later garbage collection run.

Fix this by only manipulating the "inflight" counter for sockets which
are candidates themselves.  Duplicating the file references in
unix_attach_fds() is also needed to prevent a socket becoming a
candidate for GC while the skb that contains it is not yet queued.

058e3739f6 clarify usage expectations for cnt32_to_63()
Currently, all existing users of cnt32_to_63() are fine since the CPU
architectures where it is used don't do read access reordering, and user
mode preemption is disabled already.  It is nevertheless a good idea to
better elaborate usage requirements wrt preemption, and use an explicit
memory barrier on SMP to avoid different CPUs accessing the counter
value in the wrong order.  On UP a simple compiler barrier is
sufficient.

because of power failures of the breakout box.

ebb4c65869 [ARM] iop: iop3xx needs registers mapped uncached+unbuffered
Mikael Pettersson reported:

   The 2.6.28-rc kernels fail to detect PCI device 0000:00:01.0
   (the first ethernet port) on my Thecus n2100 XScale box.

   There is however still a strange "ghost" device that gets partially
   detected in 2.6.28-rc2 vanilla.

The IOP321 manual says:

  The user designates the memory region containing the OCCDR as
  non-cacheable and non-bufferable from the IntelR XScaleTM core.
  This guarantees that all load/stores to the OCCDR are only of
  DWORD quantities.

Ensure that the OCCDR is so mapped.

c5d712433f Fix __pfn_to_page(pfn) for CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM=y
Fix the __pfn_to_page(pfn) macro so that it doesn't evaluate its
argument twice in the CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM=y case, because 'pfn' may
be a result of a funtion call having side effects.

For example, the hibernation code applies pfn_to_page(pfn) to the
result of a function returning the pfn corresponding to the next set
bit in a bitmap and the current bit position is modified on each
call.  This leads to "interesting" failures for CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM=y
due to the current behavior of __pfn_to_page(pfn).

7cbaef9c83 sched: optimize sched_clock() a bit
sched_clock() uses cycles_2_ns() needlessly - which is an irq-disabling
variant of __cycles_2_ns().

Most of the time sched_clock() is called with irqs disabled already.
The few places that call it with irqs enabled need to be updated.

0d12cdd5f8 sched: improve sched_clock() performance
in scheduler-intense workloads native_read_tsc() overhead accounts for
20% of the system overhead:

 659567 system_call                              41222.9375
 686796 schedule                                 435.7843
 718382 __switch_to                              665.1685
 823875 switch_mm                                4526.7857
 1883122 native_read_tsc                          55385.9412
 9761990 total                                      2.8468

this is large part due to the rdtsc_barrier() that is done before
and after reading the TSC.

But sched_clock() is not a precise clock in the GTOD sense, using such
barriers is completely pointless. So remove the barriers and only use
them in vget_cycles().

This improves lat_ctx performance by about 5%.

a309720c87 ftrace: display start of CPU buffer in trace output
Impact: change in trace output

Because the trace buffers are per cpu ring buffers, the start of
the trace can be confusing. If one CPU is very active at the
end of the trace, its history will not go as far back as the
other CPU traces.  This means that output for a particular CPU
may not appear for the first part of a trace.

To help annotate what is happening, and to prevent any more
confusion, this patch adds a line that annotates the start of
a CPU buffer output.

For example:

       automount-3495  [001]   184.596443: dnotify_parent <-vfs_write
[...]
       automount-3495  [001]   184.596449: dput <-path_put
       automount-3496  [002]   184.596450: down_read_trylock <-do_page_fault
[...]
           sshd-3497  [001]   184.597069: up_read <-do_page_fault
          <idle>-0     [000]   184.597074: __exit_idle <-exit_idle
[...]
       automount-3496  [002]   184.597257: filemap_fault <-__do_fault
          <idle>-0     [003]   184.597261: exit_idle <-smp_apic_timer_interrupt

Note, parsers of a trace output should always ignore any lines that
start with a '#'.
