except that on 64 bits there is a hack to avoid copying on top of the
page tables.  There is no point in copying bss at all, especially
since we are just about to zero it all anyway.

To clean up and unify the handling, we now do:

  - copy from startup_32 to _bss.
  - zero from _bss to _ebss.
  - the _ebss symbol is aligned to an 8-byte boundary.
  - the page tables are moved to a separate section.

other than that it's really very mindless and straigt conversion.

and just call it "startup", and get rid of one more difference. I didn't

Also, notice the comment in the unified vmlinux.lds.S talks about

acpi-cpufreq: fix 'smp_call_function_many()' confusion

It turns out that 'smp_call_function_many()' doesn't work at all like
'smp_call_function_single()', and my change to Andrew's patch to use it
rather than a loop over all CPU's acpi-cpufreq doesn't work.

My bad.

'smp_call_function_many()' has two "features" (aka "documented bugs"):

 (a) it needs to be called with preemption disabled, because it uses
     smp_processor_id() without guarding the CPU lookup with 'get_cpu()'
     and 'put_cpu()' like the 'single' variant does.

 (b) even if the current CPU is part of the CPU mask, it won't do the
     call on that CPU.

Still, we're better off trying to use 'smp_call_function_many()' than
looping over CPU's, since it at least in theory allows us to use a
broadcast IPI and do it all in parallel.  So let's just work around the
silly semantic bugs in that function.

cfq-iosched: add close cooperator code

If we have processes that are working in close proximity to each
other on disk, we don't want to idle wait. Instead allow the close
process to issue a request, getting better aggregate bandwidth.
The anticipatory scheduler has similar checks, noop and deadline do
not need it since they don't care about process <-> io mappings.

The code for CFQ is a little more involved though, since we split
request queues into per-process contexts.

This fixes a performance problem with eg dump(8), since it uses
several processes in some silly attempt to speed IO up. Even if
dump(8) isn't really a valid case (it should be fixed by using
CLONE_IO), there are other cases where we see close processes
and where idling ends up hurting performance.

cfq-iosched: don't delay queue kick for a merged request

"Zhang, Yanmin" <yanmin_zhang@linux.intel.com> reports that commit
b029195dda0129b427c6e579a3bb3ae752da3a93 introduced a regression
of about 50% with sequential threaded read workloads. The test
case is:

tiotest -k0 -k1 -k3 -f 80 -t 32

which starts 32 threads each reading a 80MB file. Twiddle the kick
queue logic so that we do start IO immediately, if it appears to be
a fully merged request. We can't really detect that, so just check
if the request is bigger than a page or not. The assumption is that
since single bio issues will first queue a single request with just
one page attached and then later do merges on that, if we already
have more than a page worth of data in the request, then the request
is most likely good to go.

Verified that this doesn't cause a regression with the test case that
commit b029195dda0129b427c6e579a3bb3ae752da3a93 was fixing. It does not,

15 years agopowerpc/pseries: Set error_state to pci_channel_io_normal in eeh_report_reset()
Mike Mason [Fri, 10 Apr 2009 08:57:03 +0000 (08:57 +0000)]
powerpc/pseries: Set error_state to pci_channel_io_normal in eeh_report_reset()

While adding native EEH support to Emulex and Qlogic drivers, it was
discovered that dev->error_state was set to pci_io_channel_normal too
late in the recovery process. These drivers rely on error_state to
determine if they can access the device in their slot_reset callback,
thus error_state needs to be set to pci_io_channel_normal in
eeh_report_reset(). Below is a detailed explanation (courtesy of Richard
Lary) as to why this is necessary.

Background:
PCI MMIO or DMA accesses to a frozen slot generate additional EEH
errors. If the number of additional EEH errors exceeds EEH_MAX_FAILS the
adapter will be shutdown. To avoid triggering excessive EEH errors and
an undesirable adapter shutdown, some drivers use the
pci_channel_offline(dev) wrapper function to return a Boolean value
based on the value of pci_dev->error_state to determine if PCI MMIO or
DMA accesses are safe. If the wrapper returns TRUE, drivers must not
make PCI MMIO or DMA access to their hardware.

The pci_dev structure member error_state reflects one of three values,
1) pci_channel_io_normal, 2) pci_channel_io_frozen, 3)
pci_channel_io_perm_failure.  Function pci_channel_offline(dev) returns
TRUE if error_state is pci_channel_io_frozen or pci_channel_io_perm_failure.

The EEH driver sets pci_dev->error_state to pci_channel_io_frozen at the
point where the PCI slot is frozen. Currently, the EEH driver restores
dev->error_state to pci_channel_io_normal in eeh_report_resume() before
calling the driver's resume callback. However, when the EEH driver calls
the driver's slot_reset callback() from eeh_report_reset(), it
incorrectly indicates the error state is still pci_channel_io_frozen.

Waiting until eeh_report_resume() to restore dev->error_state to
pci_channel_io_normal is too late for Emulex and QLogic FC drivers and
any other drivers which are designed to use common code paths in these
two cases: i) those called after the driver's slot_reset callback() and
ii) those called after the PCI slot is frozen but before the driver's
slot_reset callback is called. Case i) all driver paths executed to
reinitialize the hardware after a reset and case ii) all code paths
executed by driver kernel threads that run asynchronous to the main
driver thread, such as interrupt handlers and worker threads to process
driver work queues.

Emulex and QLogic FC drivers are designed with common code paths which
require that pci_channel_offline(dev) reflect the true state of the
hardware. The state transitions that the hardware takes from Normal
Operations to Slot Frozen to Reset to Normal Operations are documented
in the Power Architectureâ„¢ Platform Requirements+ (PAPR+) in Table 75.
PE State Control.

PAPR defines the following 3 states:

0 -- Not reset, Not EEH stopped, MMIO load/store allowed, DMA allowed
     (Normal Operations)
1 -- Reset, Not EEH stopped, MMIO load/store disabled, DMA disabled
2 -- Not reset, EEH stopped, MMIO load/store disabled, DMA disabled
     (Slot Frozen)

An EEH error places the slot in state 2 (Frozen) and the adapter driver
is notified that an EEH error was detected. If the adapter driver
returns PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET, the EEH driver calls
eeh_reset_device() to place the slot into state 1 (Reset) and
eeh_reset_device completes by placing the slot into State 0 (Normal
Operations). Upon return from eeh_reset_device(), the EEH driver calls
eeh_report_reset, which then calls the adapter's slot_reset callback. At
the time the adapter's slot_reset callback is called, the true state of
the hardware is Normal Operations and should be accurately reflected by
setting dev->error_state to pci_channel_io_normal.

The current implementation of EEH driver does not do so and requires
this change to correct this deficiency.

Don't call snd_jack_report at release of sigmatel and conexnat codecs
which results in Oops at unloading the module.

The Oops is triggered by the power-up sequence during the free due to
the pincfg restoration.  Since the power-up sequence is involved with
the unsol handling, the jack reporting may be issued during that.
The Oops occurs with this jack reporting because the jack instances
have been already released but the codec doesn't do the proper
book-keeping.

This patch adds the book-keeping of jack instances to avoid the access
to bogus pointers.
