If an asynchronous HiperSockets queue runs full, no further packet can be sent. In this case the next initiative to give transmitted skbs back to the stack is triggered only by a 10-seconds qdio timer. This timer has been introduced for low multicast traffic scenarios to guarantee freeing of skbs in a limited amount of time. For high HiperSocket multicast traffic scenarios progress checking on the outbound queue should be enforced by tasklet rescheduling.

Currently we disable barriers as soon as we get a buffer in xlog_iodone that has the XBF_ORDERED flag cleared. But this can be the case not only for buffers where the barrier failed, but also the first buffer of a split log write in case of a log wraparound. Due to the disabled barriers we can easily get directory corruption on unclean shutdowns. So instead of using this check add a new buffer flag for failed barrier writes. This is a regression vs 2.6.26 caused by patch to use the right macro to check for the ORDERED flag, as we previously got true returned for every buffer. Thanks to Toei Rei for reporting the bug.

We already did that a long time ago for pnp_system_init, but pnpacpi_init and pnpbios_init remained as subsys_initcalls, and get linked into the kernel before the arch-specific routines that finalize the PCI resources (pci_subsys_init). This means that the PnP routines would either register their resources before the PCI layer could, or would be unable to check whether a PCI resource had already been registered. Both are problematic. I wanted to do this before 2.6.27, but every time we change something like this, something breaks. That said, _every_ single time we trust some firmware (like PnP tables) more than we trust the hardware itself (like PCI probing), the problems have been worse.

Don't wait between submitting crypt requests for a bio unless we are short of memory. There are two situations when we must split an encrypted bio: 1) there are no free pages; 2) the new bio would violate underlying device restrictions (e.g. max hw segments). In case (2) we do not need to wait. Add output variable to crypt_alloc_buffer() to distinguish between these cases.

dm-raid1 is setting the 'DM_KCOPYD_IGNORE_ERROR' flag unconditionally when assigning kcopyd work. kcopyd is responsible for copying an assigned section of disk to one or more other disks. The 'DM_KCOPYD_IGNORE_ERROR' flag affects kcopyd in the following way: When not set: kcopyd will immediately stop the copy operation when an error is encountered. When set: kcopyd will try to proceed regardless of errors and try to continue copying any remaining amount. Since dm-raid1 tracks regions of the address space that are (or are not) in sync and it now has the ability to handle these errors, we can safely enable this optimization. This optimization is conditional on whether mirror error handling has been enabled. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Brassow <jbrassow@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

This is debatable, but while we're debating it, let's disallow the combination of splice and an O_APPEND destination. It's not entirely clear what the semantics of O_APPEND should be, and POSIX apparently expects pwrite() to ignore O_APPEND, for example. So we could make up any semantics we want, including the old ones. But Miklos convinced me that we should at least give it some thought, and that accepting writes at arbitrary offsets is wrong at least for IS_APPEND() files (which always have O_APPEND set, even if the reverse isn't true: you can obviously have O_APPEND set on a regular file). So disallow O_APPEND entirely for now. I doubt anybody cares, and this way we have one less gray area to worry about.
