Based on ace_dump_mem() from Grant Likely for the Xilinx SystemACE CompactFlash interface. Add print_hex_dump() & hex_dumper() to lib/hexdump.c and linux/kernel.h. This patch adds the functions print_hex_dump() & hex_dumper(). print_hex_dump() can be used to perform a hex + ASCII dump of data to syslog, in an easily viewable format, thus providing a common text hex dump format. hex_dumper() provides a dump-to-memory function. It converts one "line" of output (16 bytes of input) at a time. Example usages: print_hex_dump(KERN_DEBUG, DUMP_PREFIX_ADDRESS, frame->data, frame->len); hex_dumper(frame->data, frame->len, linebuf, sizeof(linebuf)); Example output using %DUMP_PREFIX_OFFSET: 0009ab42: 40414243 44454647 48494a4b 4c4d4e4f-@ABCDEFG HIJKLMNO Example output using %DUMP_PREFIX_ADDRESS: ffffffff88089af0: 70717273 74757677 78797a7b 7c7d7e7f-pqrstuvw xyz{|}~.

If CONFIG_TASK_IO_ACCOUNTING is defined, we update io accounting counters for each task. This patch permits reporting of values using the well known getrusage() syscall, filling ru_inblock and ru_oublock instead of null values. As TASK_IO_ACCOUNTING currently counts bytes counts, we approximate blocks count doing : nr_blocks = nr_bytes / 512 Example of use : ---------------------- After patch is applied, /usr/bin/time command can now give a good approximation of IO that the process had to do. $ /usr/bin/time grep tototo /usr/include/* Command exited with non-zero status 1 0.00user 0.02system 0:02.11elapsed 1%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 24288inputs+0outputs (0major+259minor)pagefaults 0swaps $ /usr/bin/time dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/testfile count=1000 1000+0 enregistrements lus 1000+0 enregistrements écrits 512000 octets (512 kB) copiés, 0,00326601 seconde, 157 MB/s 0.00user 0.00system 0:00.00elapsed 80%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+3000outputs (0major+299minor)pagefaults 0swaps Signed-off-by:

Jeff Dike authored
Add a separate IRQ stack. This differs from i386 in having the entire interrupt run on a separate stack rather than starting on the normal kernel stack and switching over once some preparation has been done. The underlying mechanism, is of course, sigaltstack. Another difference is that interrupts that happen in userspace are handled on the normal kernel stack. These cause a wait wakeup instead of a signal delivery so there is no point in trying to switch stacks for these. There's no other stuff on the stack, so there is no extra stack consumption. This quirk makes it possible to have the entire interrupt run on a separate stack - process preemption (and calls to schedule()) happens on a normal kernel stack. If we enable CONFIG_PREEMPT, this will need to be rethought. The IRQ stack for CPU 0 is declared in the same way as the initial kernel stack. IRQ stacks for other CPUs will be allocated dynamically. An extra field was added to the thread_info structure. When the active thread_info is copied to the IRQ stack, the real_thread field points back to the original stack. This makes it easy to tell where to copy the thread_info struct back to when the interrupt is finished. It also serves as a marker of a nested interrupt. It is NULL for the first interrupt on the stack, and non-NULL for any nested interrupts. Care is taken to behave correctly if a second interrupt comes in when the thread_info structure is being set up or taken down. I could just disable interrupts here, but I don't feel like giving up any of the performance gained by not flipping signals on and off. If an interrupt comes in during these critical periods, the handler can't run because it has no idea what shape the stack is in. So, it sets a bit for its signal in a global mask and returns. The outer handler will deal with this signal itself. Atomicity is had with xchg. A nested interrupt that needs to bail out will xchg its signal mask into pending_mask and repeat in case yet another interrupt hit at the same time, until the mask stabilizes. The outermost interrupt will set up the thread_info and xchg a zero into pending_mask when it is done. At this point, nested interrupts will look at ->real_thread and see that no setup needs to be done. They can just continue normally. Similar care needs to be taken when exiting the outer handler. If another interrupt comes in while it is copying the thread_info, it will drop a bit into pending_mask. The outer handler will check this and if it is non-zero, will loop, set up the stack again, and handle the interrupt. Signed-off-by:

This patch fixes a rarely-happened but severe scheduling problem of the recent m32r kernel of 2.6.17-rc3 or later. In the following previous m32r patch, the switch_to macro was modified not to do unnecessary push/pop operations for tuning. > [PATCH] m32r: update switch_to macro for tuning > 4127272c In this modification, only 'lr' and 'sp' registers are push/pop'ed, assuming that the m32r kernel is always compiled with -fomit-frame-pointer option. However, in 2.6 kernel, kernel/sched.c is irregularly compiled with -fno-omit-frame-pointer if CONFIG_SCHED_NO_NO_OMIT_FRAME_POINTER is not defined. -- kernel/Makefile -- : ifneq ($(CONFIG_SCHED_NO_NO_OMIT_FRAME_POINTER),y) # According to Alan Modra <alan@linuxcare.com.au>, the -fno-omit-frame-pointer is # needed for x86 only. Why this used to be enabled for all architectures is beyond # me. I suspect most platforms don't need this, but until we know that for sure # I turn this off for IA-64 only. Andreas Schwab says it's also needed on m68k # to get a correct value for the wait-channel (WCHAN in ps). --davidm CFLAGS_sched.o := $(PROFILING) -fno-omit-frame-pointer endif : --- Therefore, for the recent m32r kernel, we have to push/pop 'fp' (frame pointer) if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is defined or CONFIG_SCHED_NO_NO_OMIT_FRAME_POINTER is not defined.

Christoph Lameter authored
VM statistics updates do not matter if the kernel is in idle powersaving mode. So allow the timer to be deferred. It would be better though if we could switch the timer between deferrable and nondeferrable based on differentials present. The timer would start out nondeferrable and if we find that there were no updates in the last statistics interval then we would switch the timer to deferrable. If the timer later finds again that there are differentials then go to nondeferrable again. And yet another way would be to run the timer shortly before going to idle? The solution here means that the VM counters may be slightly off during idle since differentials may be still pending while the timer is deferred. Signed-off-by:

Fix a couple of problems with unlinking AFS files. (1) The parent directory wasn't being updated properly between unlink() and the following lookup(). It seems that, for some reason, invalidate_remote_inode() wasn't discarding the directory contents correctly, so this patch calls invalidate_inode_pages2() instead on non-regular files. (2) afs_vnode_deleted_remotely() should handle vnodes that don't have a source server recorded without oopsing. Signed-off-by: -

A recent change makes my Dell 1501 hang on boot. It's an AMD MK-36. I use an x86_64 kernel. It is 100% reproducible. I debugged this problem a bit and my compiler[1]interprets the =A constraint as %rax instead of %edx:%eax on x86_64 which causes the problem. The appended patch provides a workaround for this and fixed the hang on my machine. [1] gcc version 4.1.3 20070429 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.2-5) Signed-off-by:

In 9d6a8c5c we changed posix_test_lock to modify its single file_lock argument instead of taking separate input and output arguments. This makes it no longer safe to set the output lock's fl_type to F_UNLCK before looking for a conflict, since that means searching for a conflict against a lock with type F_UNLCK. This fixes a regression which causes F_GETLK to incorrectly report no conflict on most filesystems (including any filesystem that doesn't do its own locking). Also fix posix_lock_to_flock() to copy the lock type. This isn't strictly necessary, since the caller already does this; but it seems less likely to cause confusion in the future. Thanks to Doug Chapman for the bug report. Signed-off-by:

When a raid1 has only one working drive, we want read error to propagate up to the filesystem as there is no point failing the last drive in an array. Currently the code perform this check is racy. If a write and a read a both submitted to a device on a 2-drive raid1, and the write fails followed by the read failing, the read will see that there is only one working drive and will pass the failure up, even though the one working drive is actually the *other* one. So, tighten up the locking. Signed-off-by:
