For "unlock" cycles to 16bit devices in 8bit compatibility mode we need
to use the byte addresses 0xaaa and 0x555. These effectively match
the word address 0x555 and 0x2aa, except the latter has its low bit set.
Most chips don't care about the value of the 'A-1' pin in x8 mode,
but some -- like the ST M29W320D -- do. So we need to be careful to
set it where appropriate.
cfi_send_gen_cmd is only ever passed addresses where the low byte
is 0x00, 0x55 or 0xaa. Of those, only addresses ending 0xaa are
affected by this patch, by masking in the extra low bit when the device
is known to be in compatibility mode.
[dwmw2: Do it only when (cmd_ofs & 0xff) == 0xaa]
v4: Fix stupid typo in cfi_build_cmd_addr that failed to compile
I'm writing this patch way to late at night.
v3: Bring all of the work back into cfi_build_cmd_addr
including calling of map_bankwidth(map) and cfi_interleave(cfi)
So every caller doesn't need to.
v2: Only modified the address if we our device_type is larger than our
bus width.

The 32-bit and 64-bit powerpc PCI code used to set up the resource
pointers of the root bus of a given PHB in completely different
places.
This unifies this in large part, by making 32-bit use a routine very
similar to what 64-bit does when initially scanning the PCI busses.
The actual setup of the PHB resources itself is then moved to a
common function in pci-common.c.
This should cause no functional change on 64-bit. On 32-bit, the
effect is that the PHB resources are going to be setup a bit earlier,
instead of being setup from pcibios_fixup_bus().

Update memcpy() to add two new feature sections: one for aligning the
destination before copying and one for copying using aligned load
and store doubles.
These new feature sections will only affect Power6 and Cell because
the CPU feature bit was only added to these two processors.
Power6 gets its best performance in memcpy() when aligning neither the
source nor the destination, while Cell gets its best performance when
just the destination is aligned. But in order to save on CPU feature
bits we can use the previously added CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ feature bit
to differentiate between Power6 and Cell (because CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ
was added to Cell but not Power6).
The first feature section acts to nop out the branch that takes us to
the code that aligns us to an eight byte boundary for the destination.
We only want to nop out this branch on Power6.
So the ALT_FTR_SECTION_END() for this feature section creates a test
mask of the two feature bits ORed together and provides an expected
result of just CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD, thus we nop out the branch
if we're on a CPU that has CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD set and
CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ unset.
For the second feature section added, if we're on a CPU that has the
CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD bit set then we don't want to do the copy
with aligned loads and stores (and the appropriate shifting left and
right instructions), so we want to nop out the branch to
.Lsrc_unaligned.
The andi. used for this branch is moved to just above the branch
because this allows us to nop out both instructions with just one
feature section which gives us better performance and doesn't hurt
readability which two separate feature sections did.
Moving the andi. to just above the branch doesn't have any noticeable
negative effect on the remaining 64bit processors (the ones that
didn't have this feature bit added).
On Cell this simple modification results in an improvement to measured
memcpy() bandwidth of up to 50% in the hot cache case and up to 15% in
the cold cache case.
On Power6 we get memory bandwidth results that are up to three times
faster in the hot cache case and up to 50% faster in the cold cache
case.
Commit 2a9294369b ("powerpc: Add new CPU
feature: CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ") was where CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ was
added.
To say that Cell gets its best performance in memcpy() with just the
destination aligned is true but only for the reason that the indirect
shift and rotate instructions, sld and srd, are microcoded on Cell.
This means that either the destination or the source can be aligned,
but not both, and seeing as we get better performance with the
destination aligned we choose this option.
While we're at it make a one line change from cmpldi r1,... to
cmpldi cr1,... for consistency.

The 'ibm,interrupt-server#-size' properties are not in the cpu nodes,
which is where we currently look for them, but rather live under the
interrupt source controller nodes (which have "ibm,ppc-xics" in their
compatible property).
This moves the code that looks for the ibm,interrupt-server#-size
properties from xics_update_irq_servers() into xics_init_IRQ().
Also this adds a check for mismatched sizes across the interrupt
source controller nodes. Not sure this is necessary as in this case
the firmware might be seriously busted.
This property only appears on POWER6 boxes and is only used in the
set-indicator(gqirm) call, and apparently firmware currently ignores
the value we pass. Nevertheless we need to fix it in case future
firmware versions use it.

The code to properly expose domain numbers in /proc is somewhat
bogus on ppc64 as it depends on the "buid" field being non-0,
but that field is really pseries specific.
This removes that code and makes ppc64 use the same code as 32-bit
which effectively decides whether to expose domains based on
ppc_pci_flags set by the platform, and sets the default for 64-bit
to enable domains and enable compatibility for domain 0 (which
strips the domain number for domain 0 to help with X servers).

With some net devices types, an IPv6 address configured while the
interface was down can stay 'tentative' forever, even after the interface
is set up. In some case, pending IPv6 DADs are not executed when the
device becomes ready.
I observed this while doing some tests with kvm. If I assign an IPv6
address to my interface eth0 (kvm driver rtl8139) when it is still down
then the address is flagged tentative (IFA_F_TENTATIVE). Then, I set
eth0 up, and to my surprise, the address stays 'tentative', no DAD is
executed and the address can't be pinged.
I also observed the same behaviour, without kvm, with virtual interfaces
types macvlan and veth.
Some easy steps to reproduce the issue with macvlan:
1. ip link add link eth0 type macvlan
2. ip -6 addr add 2003::ab32/64 dev macvlan0
3. ip addr show dev macvlan0
...
inet6 2003::ab32/64 scope global tentative
...
4. ip link set macvlan0 up
5. ip addr show dev macvlan0
...
inet6 2003::ab32/64 scope global tentative
...
Address is still tentative
I think there's a bug in net/ipv6/addrconf.c, addrconf_notify():
addrconf_dad_run() is not always run when the interface is flagged IF_READY.
Currently it is only run when receiving NETDEV_CHANGE event. Looks like
some (virtual) devices doesn't send this event when becoming up.
For both NETDEV_UP and NETDEV_CHANGE events, when the interface becomes
ready, run_pending should be set to 1. Patch below.
'run_pending = 1' could be moved below the if/else block but it makes
the code less readable.

I noticed a contention on udp_memory_allocated on regular UDP applications.
While tcp_memory_allocated is seldom used, it appears each incoming UDP frame
is currently touching udp_memory_allocated when queued, and when received by
application.
One possible solution is to use sk_mem_reclaim_partial() instead of
sk_mem_reclaim(), so that we keep a small reserve (less than one page)
of memory for each UDP socket.
We did something very similar on TCP side in commit
9993e7d313

Impact: improve/change/fix wakeup-buddy scheduling
Currently we only have a forward looking buddy, that is, we prefer to
schedule to the task we last woke up, under the presumption that its
going to consume the data we just produced, and therefore will have
cache hot benefits.
This allows co-waking producer/consumer task pairs to run ahead of the
pack for a little while, keeping their cache warm. Without this, we
would interleave all pairs, utterly trashing the cache.
This patch introduces a backward looking buddy, that is, suppose that
in the above scenario, the consumer preempts the producer before it
can go to sleep, we will therefore miss the wakeup from consumer to
producer (its already running, after all), breaking the cycle and
reverting to the cache-trashing interleaved schedule pattern.
The backward buddy will try to schedule back to the task that woke us
up in case the forward buddy is not available, under the assumption
that the last task will be the one with the most cache hot task around
barring current.
This will basically allow a task to continue after it got preempted.
In order to avoid starvation, we allow either buddy to get wakeup_gran
ahead of the pack.

This patch prepares for the new and extended feature-negotiation
routines.
The following feature-negotiation data structures are provided:
* a container for the various (SP or NN) values,
* symbolic state names to track feature states,
* an entry struct which holds all current information together,
* elementary functions to fill in and process these structures.
Entry structs are arranged as FIFO for the following reason: RFC 4340
specifies that if multiple options of the same type are present, they
are processed in the order of their appearance in the packet; which
means that this order needs to be preserved in the local data
structure (the later insertion code also respects this order).
The struct list_head has been chosen for the following reasons: the most
frequent operations are
* add new entry at tail (when receiving Change or setting socket
options);
* delete entry (when Confirm has been received);
* deep copy of entire list (cloning from listening socket onto
request socket).
The NN value has been set to 64 bit, which is a currently sufficient
upper limit (Sequence Window feature has 48 bit).

This patch removes the static sleep time in favor of a more self
optimizing approach where we measure the average amount of time it
takes to commit a transaction to disk and the ammount of time a
transaction has been running. If somebody does a sync write or an
fsync() traditionally we would sleep for 1 jiffies, which depending on
the value of HZ could be a significant amount of time compared to how
long it takes to commit a transaction to the underlying storage. With
this patch instead of sleeping for a jiffie, we check to see if the
amount of time this transaction has been running is less than the
average commit time, and if it is we sleep for the delta using
schedule_hrtimeout to give us a higher precision sleep time. This
greatly benefits high end storage where you could end up sleeping for
longer than it takes to commit the transaction and therefore sitting
idle instead of allowing the transaction to be committed by keeping
the sleep time to a minimum so you are sure to always be doing
something.

A few weeks ago I posted a patch for discussion that allowed ext4 to run

running with this patch and generating some performance numbers against
both ext2 (with backported reservations code) and ext4 with and without

slightly faster for most everything.
We did
iozone -T -t 4 s 2g -r 256k -T -I -i0 -i1 -i2
which creates 4 threads, each of which create and do reads and writes on
a 2G file, with a buffer size of 256K, using O_DIRECT for all file opens
to bypass the page cache. Results:
ext2 ext4, default ext4, no journal
initial writes 13.0 MB/s 15.4 MB/s 15.7 MB/s
rewrites 13.1 MB/s 15.6 MB/s 15.9 MB/s
reads 15.2 MB/s 16.9 MB/s 17.2 MB/s
re-reads 15.3 MB/s 16.9 MB/s 17.2 MB/s
random readers 5.6 MB/s 5.6 MB/s 5.7 MB/s

I chased the cause of following ext4 oops report which is tested on
ia64 box.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12018
The cause is the size of s_mb_maxs array that is defined as "unsigned
short" in ext4_sb_info structure. If the file system's block size is
8k or greater, an unsigned short is not wide enough to contain the
value fs->blocksize << 3.

The inode table has been zeroed in setup_new_group_blocks(). Mark it as
such in ext4_group_add(). Since we are currently clearing inode table
for the new block group, we should set the EXT4_BG_INODE_ZEROED flag.
If at some point in the future we don't immediately zero out the inode
table as part of the resize operation, then obviously we shouldn't do
this.

Add this so that file systems using JBD2 can safely allocate unused b_state
bits.
In this case, we add it so that Ocfs2 can define a single bit for tracking
the validation state of a buffer.

Remove some completely unneeded code which which caused an ext4_error
to be generated when mounting a file system with only a single block
group.
