Rather than pass in some random truncated offset to the pid-related
functions, check that the offset is in range up-front.This is just cleanup, the previous commit fixed the real problem.

next_pidmap() just quietly accepted whatever 'last' pid that was passed
in, which is not all that safe when one of the users is /proc.Admittedly the proc code should do some sanity checking on the range
(and that will be the next commit), but that doesn't mean that the
helper functions should just do that pidmap pointer arithmetic without
checking the range of its arguments.So clamp 'last' to PID_MAX_LIMIT. The fact that we then do "last+1"
doesn't really matter, the for-loop does check against the end of the
pidmap array properly (it's only the actual pointer arithmetic overflow
case we need to worry about, and going one bit beyond isn't going to
overflow).[ Use PID_MAX_LIMIT rather than pid_max as per Eric Biederman ]

Mouse gets "stuck" after restore of PV guest but buttons are in working
condition.If driver has been configured for ABS coordinates at start it will get
XENKBD_TYPE_POS events and then suddenly after restore it'll start getting
XENKBD_TYPE_MOTION events, that will be dropped later and they won't get
into user-space.Regression was introduced by hunk 5 and 6 of
5ea5254aa0ad269cfbd2875c973ef25ab5b5e9db
("Input: xen-kbdfront - advertise either absolute or relative
coordinates").Driver on restore should ask xen for request-abs-pointer again if it is
available. So restore parts that did it before 5ea5254.Acked-by: Olaf Hering

The free space caching code was recently reworked to
cache all the pages it needed instead of using find_get_page everywhere.One loop was missed though, so it ended up leaking pages. This fixes
it to use our page array instead of find_get_page.Signed-off-by: Chris Mason

Instead of overloading __blk_run_queue to force an offload to kblockd
add a new blk_run_queue_async helper to do it explicitly. I've kept
the blk_queue_stopped check for now, but I suspect it's not needed
as the check we do when the workqueue items runs should be enough.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

We just need to make sure that an unplug event wakes up the md
thread, which is exactly what mddev_check_plugged does.Also remove some plug-related code that is no longer needed.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

In raid5 plugging is used for 2 things:
1/ collecting writes that require a bitmap update
2/ collecting writes in the hope that we can create full
stripes - or at least more-full.We now release these different sets of stripes when plug_cnt
is zero.Also in make_request, we call mddev_check_plug to hopefully increase
plug_cnt, and wake up the thread at the end if plugging wasn't
achieved for some reason.Signed-off-by: NeilBrown
-
When an md device adds a request to a queue, it can call
mddev_check_plugged.
If this succeeds then we know that the md thread will be woken up
shortly, and ->plug_cnt will be non-zero until then, so some
processing can be delayed.If it fails, then no unplug callback is expected and the make_request
function needs to do whatever is required to make the request happen.Signed-off-by: NeilBrown
-
md has some plugging infrastructure for RAID5 to use because the
normal plugging infrastructure required a 'request_queue', and when
called from dm, RAID5 doesn't have one of those available.This relied on the ->unplug_fn callback which doesn't exist any more.
So remove all of that code, both in md and raid5. Subsequent patches
with restore the plugging functionality.Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

Now that unplugging is done differently, the unplug_fn callback is
never called, so it can be completely discarded.Signed-off-by: NeilBrown

md/raid submits a lot of IO from the various raid threads.
So adding start/finish plug calls to those so that some
plugging happens.Signed-off-by: NeilBrown
-
If we know we are going to punt to kblockd, we can drop the queue
lock before calling into __blk_run_queue() since it only does a
safe bit test and a workqueue call. Since kblockd needs to grab
this very lock as one of the first things it does, it's a good
optimization to drop the lock before waking kblockd.Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

MD can't use this since it really requires us to be able to
keep more than a single piece of state for the unplug. Commit
048c9374 added the required support for MD, so get rid of this
now unused code.This reverts commit f75664570d8b75469cc468f23c2b27220984983b.

md/raid requires an unplug callback, but as it does not uses
requests the current code cannot provide one.So allow arbitrary callbacks to be attached to the blk_plug.

Because of speculative event roll back, it is possible for some event coutners
to decrease between reads on POWER7. This causes a problem with the way that
counters are updated. Delta calues are calculated in a 64 bit value and the
top 32 bits are masked. If the register value has decreased, this leaves us
with a very large positive value added to the kernel counters. This patch
protects against this by skipping the update if the delta would be negative.
This can lead to a lack of precision in the coutner values, but from my testing
the value is typcially fewer than 10 samples at a time.Signed-off-by: Eric B Munson

PAPR specifies that DTL buffers can not cross AMS environments (aka CMO
in the PAPR) and can not cross a memory entitlement granule boundary
(4k). This is found in section 14.11.3.2 H_REGISTER_VPA of the PAPR.
kmalloc does not guarantee an alignment of the allocation, though,
beyond 8 bytes (at least in my understanding). Create a special kmem
cache for DTL buffers with the alignment requirement.Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

Recent commit b987812b3fcaf70fdf0037589e5d2f5f2453e6ce caused
a compile failure on UP because a considerably large block
of the file was included within CONFIG_SMP, hence making a stub
function not exposed on UP builds when it needed to be.Relocate the stub to the #else /* ! CONFIG_SMP */ section
and also annotate the relevant else/endif so that nobody

Apparently some distros set i2c-algo-bit.bit_test to 1 by
default. In some cases this causes i2c_bit_add_bus
to fail and prevents the i2c bus from being added. In the
radeon case, we fail to add the ddc i2c buses which prevents
the driver from being able to detect attached monitors.
The i2c bus works fine even if bit_test fails. This is likely
due to gpio switching that is required and handled in the
pre/post_xfer hooks, so call the pre/post_xfer hooks in the
bit test as well.Fixes:

It's a pretty close match to what we had before - the timer triggering
would mean that nobody unplugged the plug in due time, in the new
scheme this matches very closely what the schedule() unplug now is.
It's essentially the difference between an explicit unplug (IO unplug)
or an implicit unplug (timer unplug, we scheduled with pending IO
queued).Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe
