- atomic operations which both modify the variable and return something imply
full smp memory barriers before and after the memory operations involved

So remove extra barriers and branches.

memcg: fix page_cgroup allocation
page_cgroup_init() is called from mem_cgroup_init(). But at this
point, we cannot call alloc_bootmem().
(and this caused panic at boot.)
This patch moves page_cgroup_init() to init/main.c.
Time table is following:
==
parse_args(). # we can trust mem_cgroup_subsys.disabled bit after this.
....
cgroup_init_early() # "early" init of cgroup.
....
setup_arch() # memmap is allocated.
...
page_cgroup_init();
mem_init(); # we cannot call alloc_bootmem after this.
....
cgroup_init() # mem_cgroup is initialized.
==
Before page_cgroup_init(), mem_map must be initialized. So,
I added page_cgroup_init() to init/main.c directly.
(*) maybe this is not very clean but
- cgroup_init_early() is too early
- in cgroup_init(), we have to use vmalloc instead of alloc_bootmem().
use of vmalloc area in x86-32 is important and we should avoid very large
vmalloc() in x86-32. So, we want to use alloc_bootmem() and added page_cgroup_init()
directly to init/main.c

jbd: abort instead of waiting for nonexistent transactions
The __log_wait_for_space function sits in a loop checkpointing
transactions until there is sufficient space free in the journal.
However, if there are no transactions to be processed (e.g. because the
free space calculation is wrong due to a corrupted filesystem) it will
never progress.
Check for space being required when no transactions are outstanding and
abort the journal instead of endlessly looping.

ext3: add checks for errors from jbd
If the journal has aborted due to a checkpointing failure, we have to
keep the contents of the journal space. Otherwise, the filesystem will
lose uncheckpointed metadata completely and become inconsistent. To
avoid this, we need to keep needs_recovery flag if checkpoint has
failed.
With this patch, ext3_put_super() detects a checkpointing failure from
the return value of journal_destroy(), then it invokes ext3_abort() to
make the filesystem read only and keep needs_recovery flag. Errors
from journal_flush() are also handled by this patch in some places.

jbd: fix error handling for checkpoint io
When a checkpointing IO fails, current JBD code doesn't check the error
and continue journaling. This means latest metadata can be lost from both
the journal and filesystem.
This patch leaves the failed metadata blocks in the journal space and
aborts journaling in the case of log_do_checkpoint(). To achieve this, we
need to do:
1. don't remove the failed buffer from the checkpoint list where in
the case of __try_to_free_cp_buf() because it may be released or
overwritten by a later transaction
2. log_do_checkpoint() is the last chance, remove the failed buffer
from the checkpoint list and abort the journal
3. when checkpointing fails, don't update the journal super block to
prevent the journaled contents from being cleaned. For safety,
don't update j_tail and j_tail_sequence either
4. when checkpointing fails, notify this error to the ext3 layer so
that ext3 don't clear the needs_recovery flag, otherwise the
journaled contents are ignored and cleaned in the recovery phase
5. if the recovery fails, keep the needs_recovery flag
6. prevent cleanup_journal_tail() from being called between
__journal_drop_transaction() and journal_abort() (a race issue
between journal_flush() and __log_wait_for_space()

powerpc: Support for relocatable kdump kernel
This adds relocatable kernel support for kdump. With this one can
use the same regular kernel to capture the kdump. A signature (0xfeed1234)
is passed in r6 from panic code to the next kernel through kexec_sequence
and purgatory code. The signature is used to differentiate between
kdump kernel and non-kdump kernels.
The purgatory code compares the signature and sets the __kdump_flag in
head_64.S. During the boot up, kernel code checks __kdump_flag and if it
is set, the kernel will behave as relocatable kdump kernel. This kernel
will boot at the address where it was loaded by kexec-tools ie. at the
address reserved through crashkernel boot parameter.
CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP depends on CONFIG_RELOCATABLE option to build kdump
kernel as relocatable. So the same kernel can be used as production and

core_param() for genuinely core kernel parameters
There are a lot of one-liner uses of __setup() in the kernel: they're
cumbersome and not queryable (definitely not settable) via /sys. Yet
it's ugly to simplify them to module_param(), because by default that
inserts a prefix of the module name (usually filename).
So, introduce a "core_param". The parameter gets no prefix, but
appears in /sys/module/kernel/parameters/ (if non-zero perms arg). I
thought about using the name "core", but that's more common than
"kernel". And if you create a module called "kernel", you will die
a horrible death.

param: Fix duplicate module prefixes
Instead of insisting each new module_param sysfs entry is unique,
handle the case where it already exists (for builtin modules).
The current code assumes that all identical prefixes are together in
the section: true for normal uses, but not necessarily so if someone
overrides MODULE_PARAM_PREFIX. More importantly, it's not true with
the new "core_param()" code which uses "kernel" as a prefix.
This simplifies the caller for the builtin case, at a slight loss of
efficiency (we do the lookup every time to see if the directory
exists).

module: check kernel param length at compile time, not runtime
The kparam code tries to handle over-length parameter prefixes at

Remove stop_machine during module load v2
Remove stop_machine during module load v2
module loading currently does a stop_machine on each module load to insert
the module into the global module lists. Especially on larger systems this
can be quite expensive.
It does that to handle concurrent lock lessmodule list readers
like kallsyms.
I don't think stop_machine() is actually needed to insert something
into a list though. There are no concurrent writers because the
module mutex is taken. And the RCU list functions know how to insert
a node into a list with the right memory ordering so that concurrent
readers don't go off into the wood.
So remove the stop_machine for the module list insert and just
do a list_add_rcu() instead.
Module removal will still do a stop_machine of course, it needs
that for other reasons.
v2: Revised readers based on Paul's comments. All readers that only
rely on disabled preemption need to be changed to list_for_each_rcu().
Done that. The others are ok because they have the modules mutex.
Also added a possible missing preempt disable for print_modules().

NOHZ: fix thinko in the timer restart code path
commit
fb02fbc14d17837b4b7b02dbb36142c16a7bf208 (NOHZ: restart tick
device from irq_enter())
solves the problem of stale jiffies when long running softirqs happen
in a long idle sleep period, but it has a major thinko in it:
When the interrupt which came in _is_ the timer interrupt which should
expire ts->sched_timer then we cancel and rearm the timer _before_ it
gets expired in hrtimer_interrupt() to the next period. That means the
call back function is not called. This game can go on for ever :(
Prevent this by making sure to only rearm the timer when the expiry
time is more than one tick_period away. Otherwise keep it running as
it is either already expired or will expiry at the right point to
update jiffies.

dm crypt: fix async split
When writing io, dm-crypt has to allocate a new cloned bio
and encrypt the data into newly-allocated pages attached to this bio.
In rare cases, because of hw restrictions (e.g. physical segment limit)
or memory pressure, sometimes more than one cloned bio has to be used,
each processing a different fragment of the original.
Currently there is one waitqueue which waits for one fragment to finish
and continues processing the next fragment.
But when using asynchronous crypto this doesn't work, because several
fragments may be processed asynchronously or in parallel and there is
only one crypt context that cannot be shared between the bio fragments.
The result may be corruption of the data contained in the encrypted bio.
The patch fixes this by allocating new dm_crypt_io structs (with new
crypto contexts) and running them independently.
The fragments contains a pointer to the base dm_crypt_io struct to
handle reference counting, so the base one is properly deallocated
after all the fragments are finished.
In a low memory situation, this only uses one additional object from the
mempool. If the mempool is empty, the next allocation simple waits for
previous fragments to complete.

dm snapshot: fix primary_pe race
Fix a race condition with primary_pe ref_count handling.
put_pending_exception runs under dm_snapshot->lock, it does atomic_dec_and_test
on primary_pe->ref_count, and later does atomic_read primary_pe->ref_count.
__origin_write does atomic_dec_and_test on primary_pe->ref_count without holding
dm_snapshot->lock.
This opens the following race condition:
Assume two CPUs, CPU1 is executing put_pending_exception (and holding
dm_snapshot->lock). CPU2 is executing __origin_write in parallel.
primary_pe->ref_count == 2.
CPU1:
if (primary_pe && atomic_dec_and_test(&primary_pe->ref_count))
origin_bios = bio_list_get(&primary_pe->origin_bios);
... decrements primary_pe->ref_count to 1. Doesn't load origin_bios
CPU2:
if (first && atomic_dec_and_test(&primary_pe->ref_count)) {
flush_bios(bio_list_get(&primary_pe->origin_bios));
free_pending_exception(primary_pe);
/* If we got here, pe_queue is necessarily empty. */
return r;
}
... decrements primary_pe->ref_count to 0, submits pending bios, frees
primary_pe.
CPU1:
if (!primary_pe || primary_pe != pe)
free_pending_exception(pe);
... this has no effect.
if (primary_pe && !atomic_read(&primary_pe->ref_count))
free_pending_exception(primary_pe);
... sees ref_count == 0 (written by CPU 2), does double free !!
This bug can happen only if someone is simultaneously writing to both the
origin and the snapshot.
If someone is writing only to the origin, __origin_write will submit kcopyd
request after it decrements primary_pe->ref_count (so it can't happen that the
finished copy races with primary_pe->ref_count decrementation).
If someone is writing only to the snapshot, __origin_write isn't invoked at all
and the race can't happen.
The race happens when someone writes to the snapshot --- this creates
pending_exception with primary_pe == NULL and starts copying. Then, someone
writes to the same chunk in the snapshot, and __origin_write races with
termination of already submitted request in pending_complete (that calls
put_pending_exception).
This race may be reason for bugs:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11636
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=465825
The patch fixes the code to make sure that:
1. If atomic_dec_and_test(&primary_pe->ref_count) returns false, the process
must no longer dereference primary_pe (because someone else may free it under
us).
2. If atomic_dec_and_test(&primary_pe->ref_count) returns true, the process
is responsible for freeing primary_pe.

dm kcopyd: avoid queue shuffle
Write throughput to LVM snapshot origin volume is an order
of magnitude slower than those to LV without snapshots or
snapshot target volumes, especially in the case of sequential
writes with O_SYNC on.
The following patch originally written by Kevin Jamieson and
Jan Blunck and slightly modified for the current RCs by myself
tries to improve the performance by modifying the behaviour
of kcopyd, so that it pushes back an I/O job to the head of
the job queue instead of the tail as process_jobs() currently
does when it has to wait for free pages. This way, write
requests aren't shuffled to cause extra seeks.
I tested the patch against 2.6.27-rc5 and got the following results.
The test is a dd command writing to snapshot origin followed by fsync
to the file just created/updated. A couple of filesystem benchmarks
gave me similar results in case of sequential writes, while random
writes didn't suffer much.
dd if=/dev/zero of=<somewhere on snapshot origin> bs=4096 count=...
[conv=notrunc when updating]
1) linux 2.6.27-rc5 without the patch, write to snapshot origin,
average throughput (MB/s)
10M 100M 1000M
create,dd 511.46 610.72 11.81
create,dd+fsync 7.10 6.77 8.13
update,dd 431.63 917.41 12.75
update,dd+fsync 7.79 7.43 8.12
compared with write throughput to LV without any snapshots,
all dd+fsync and 1000 MiB writes perform very poorly.
10M 100M 1000M
create,dd 555.03 608.98 123.29
create,dd+fsync 114.27 72.78 76.65
update,dd 152.34 1267.27 124.04
update,dd+fsync 130.56 77.81 77.84
2) linux 2.6.27-rc5 with the patch, write to snapshot origin,
average throughput (MB/s)
10M 100M 1000M
create,dd 537.06 589.44 46.21
create,dd+fsync 31.63 29.19 29.23
update,dd 487.59 897.65 37.76
update,dd+fsync 34.12 30.07 26.85
Although still not on par with plain LV performance -
cannot be avoided because it's copy on write anyway -
this simple patch successfully improves throughtput
of dd+fsync while not affecting the rest.
