x86: memtest: reuse test patterns when memtest parameter exceeds number of available patterns

Impact: fix unexpected behaviour when pattern number is out of range

Current implementation provides 4 patterns for memtest. The code doesn't
check whether the memtest parameter value exceeds the maximum pattern number.

Instead the memtest code pretends to test with non-existing patterns, e.g.
when booting with memtest=10 I've observed the following

  ...
  early_memtest: pattern num 10
  0000001000 - 0000006000 pattern 0
  ...
  0000001000 - 0000006000 pattern 1
  ...
  0000001000 - 0000006000 pattern 2
  ...
  0000001000 - 0000006000 pattern 3
  ...
  0000001000 - 0000006000 pattern 4
  ...
  0000001000 - 0000006000 pattern 5
  ...
  0000001000 - 0000006000 pattern 6
  ...
  0000001000 - 0000006000 pattern 7
  ...
  0000001000 - 0000006000 pattern 8
  ...
  0000001000 - 0000006000 pattern 9
  ...

But in fact Linux didn't test anything for patterns > 4 as the default
case in memtest() is to leave the function.

I suggest to use the memtest parameter as the number of tests to be
performed and to re-iterate over all existing patterns.

0812a579c92fefa57506821fa08e90f47cb6dbdd) may have been an improvement
for sufficiently large writes, there is evidence to show that it is
deterimental for small writes.  Unixbench's fstime test gives the
following results for 256 byte writes with MAX_BLOCK of 2000:

    2.6.29-rc6 ( 5 samples, each in KB/sec ):

    2.6.18
    395700, 342000, 399100, 366050, 359850

    See w_test() in src/fstime.c in unixbench version 4.1.0.  Basically, the above test
    consists of counting how much we can write in this manner:

    alarm(10);
    while (!sigalarm) {
            for (f_blocks = 0; f_blocks < 2000; ++f_blocks) {
                   write(f, buf, 256);

that are not addressed here.

This is not a bug per se because the kernel stack is always an aligned
4K or 8K block.  Therefore it cannot cross 64K boundaries; this code,
in fact, relies strictly on that fact.

has been reworked and removed - and the Voyager code, beyond the
build problems already known, needs serious and significant
changes and probably a rewrite to support it.

CONFIG_X86_VOYAGER has been marked BROKEN then. The maintainer has

While all other subarchs have been converted to the new scheme,
voyager is still broken. We'd prefer to receive patches which
clean up the current situation in a constructive way, but even in

docbook: split kernel-api for device-drivers

The kernel-api docbook was much larger than any of the others,
so processing it took longer and needed some docbook extras in
some cases, so split it into kernel-api (infrastructure etc.)
and device drivers/device subsystems.  This allows these docbooks
to be generated in parallel.  (This reduced the docbook processing
time on my 4-proc system with make -j4 from about 5min:16sec to
about 2min:01sec.)

The chapters that were moved from kernel-api to device-drivers are:

Driver Basics
Device drivers infrastructure
Parallel Port Devices
Message-based devices
Sound Devices
16x50 UART Driver
Frame Buffer Library
Input Subsystem
Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)

PM/hibernate: fix "swap breaks after hibernation failures"

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12239

The image writing code dropped a reference to the current swap device.
This doesn't show up if the hibernation succeeds - because it doesn't
affect the image which gets resumed.  But it means multiple _failed_
hibernations end up freeing the swap device while it is still use!

swsusp_write() finds the block device for the swap file using swap_type_of().
It then uses blkdev_get() / blkdev_put() to open and close the block device.

Unfortunately, blkdev_get() assumes ownership of the inode of the block_device
passed to it.  So blkdev_put() calls iput() on the inode.  This is by design
and other callers expect this behaviour.  The fix is for swap_type_of() to take
a reference on the inode using bdget().

When two different users mount the same Windows 2003 Server share using CIFS,

smb session when a second similar user (e.g. two users who get mapped by server to "guest")

[CIFS] improve posix semantics of file create

Samba server added support for a new posix open/create/mkdir operation
a year or so ago, and we added support to cifs for mkdir to use it,
but had not added the corresponding code to file create.

The following patch helps improve the performance of the cifs create
path (to Samba and servers which support the cifs posix protocol
extensions).  Using Connectathon basic test1, with 2000 files, the
performance improved about 15%, and also helped reduce network traffic
(17% fewer SMBs sent over the wire) due to saving a network round trip
for the SetPathInfo on every file create.

It should also help the semantics (and probably the performance) of
write (e.g. when posix byte range locks are on the file) on file
handles opened with posix create, and adds support for a few flags

Mauro Carvalho Chehab [Fri, 20 Feb 2009 23:38:52 +0000 (15:38 -0800)]
8250: fix boot hang with serial console when using with Serial Over Lan port

Intel 8257x Ethernet boards have a feature called Serial Over Lan.

This feature works by emulating a serial port, and it is detected by
kernel as a normal 8250 port.  However, this emulation is not perfect, as
also noticed on changeset 7500b1f602aad75901774a67a687ee985d85893f.

Before this patch, the kernel were trying to check if the serial TX is
capable of work using IRQ's.

This were done with a code similar this:

        serial_outp(up, UART_IER, UART_IER_THRI);
        lsr = serial_in(up, UART_LSR);
        iir = serial_in(up, UART_IIR);
        serial_outp(up, UART_IER, 0);

        if (lsr & UART_LSR_TEMT && iir & UART_IIR_NO_INT)
up->bugs |= UART_BUG_TXEN;

This works fine for other 8250 ports, but, on 8250-emulated SoL port, the
chip is a little lazy to down UART_IIR_NO_INT at UART_IIR register.

Due to that, UART_BUG_TXEN is sometimes enabled.  However, as TX IRQ keeps
working, and the TX polling is now enabled, the driver miss-interprets the
IRQ received later, hanging up the machine until a key is pressed at the
serial console.

This is the 6 version of this patch.  Previous versions were trying to
introduce a large enough delay between serial_outp and serial_in(up,
UART_IIR), but not taking forever.  However, the needed delay couldn't be
safely determined.

At the experimental tests, a delay of 1us solves most of the cases, but
still hangs sometimes.  Increasing the delay to 5us was better, but still
doesn't solve.  A very high delay of 50 ms seemed to work every time.

However, poking around with delays and pray for it to be enough doesn't
seem to be a good approach, even for a quirk.

So, instead of playing with random large arbitrary delays, let's just
disable UART_BUG_TXEN for all SoL ports.

15 years agoslab: introduce kzfree()
Johannes Weiner [Fri, 20 Feb 2009 23:38:41 +0000 (15:38 -0800)]
slab: introduce kzfree()

kzfree() is a wrapper for kfree() that additionally zeroes the underlying
memory before releasing it to the slab allocator.

Currently there is code which memset()s the memory region of an object
before releasing it back to the slab allocator to make sure
security-sensitive data are really zeroed out after use.

These callsites can then just use kzfree() which saves some code, makes
users greppable and allows for a stupid destructor that isn't necessarily
aware of the actual object size.

x86, mm: fault.c, give another attempt at prefetch handing before SIGBUS

Impact: extend prefetch handling on 64-bit

Currently there's an extra is_prefetch() check done in do_sigbus(),
which we only do on 32 bits.

This is a last-ditch check before we terminate a task, so it's worth
giving prefetch instructions another chance - should none of our
existing quirks have caught a prefetch instruction related spurious
fault.

The only risk is if a prefetch causes a real sigbus, in that case
we'll not OOM but try another fault. But this code has been on
32-bit for a long time, so it should be fine in practice.

So do this on 64-bit too - and thus remove one more #ifdef.

x86, mm: fault.c, unify oops handling

Impact: add oops-recursion check to 32-bit

Unify the oops state-machine, to the 64-bit version. It is
slightly more careful in that it does a recursion check
in oops_begin(), and is thus more likely to show the relevant
oops.

It also means that 32-bit will print one more line at the
end of pagefault triggered oopses:

  printk(KERN_EMERG "CR2: %016lx\n", address);

Which is generally good information to be seen in partial-dump
digital-camera jpegs ;-)

The downside is the somewhat more complex critical path. Both
variants have been tested well meanwhile by kernel developers
crashing their boxes so i dont think this is a practical worry.

This removes 3 ugly #ifdefs from no_context() and makes the
function a lot nicer read.
