* m32r: Rename STI/CLI macrosHirokazu Takata2007-09-062-16/+16
| | | | | | | | | The names of STI and CLI macros were derived from i386 arch historically, but their name are incomprehensible. So, for easy to understand, rename these macros to ENABLE_INTERRUPTS and DISABLE_INTERRUPTS, respectively. Signed-off-by: Hirokazu Takata <takata@linux-m32r.org>

* m32r: Exit ei_handler directly for no IRQ case or IPI operationsHirokazu Takata2007-09-031-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | If no IRQ request is found in the IRQ check of ei_handler, we can exit directly by jumping "restore_all", instead of via "ret_from_intr". This modification is also likely effective for IPI operations, because scheduler call never happen at the exit of IPIs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This avoids the recent NFS mount regression (returning EBUSY when mounting the same filesystem twice with different parameters). The best I can do given the constraints appears to be to have the kernel first look for a superblock that matches both the fsid and the user-specified mount options, and then spawn off a new superblock if that search fails. Note that this is not the same as specifying nosharecache everywhere since nosharecache will never attempt to match an existing superblock.

* | | x86: be even more careful about checking the stack frame on dumpingLinus Torvalds2007-08-311-12/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | lguest didn't initialize the kernel stack the way a real i386 kernel does, and ended up triggering a corner-case in the stack frame checking that doesn't happen on naive i386, and that the stack dumping didn't handle quite right. This makes the frame handling more correct, and tries to clarify the code at the same time so that it's a bit more obvious what is going on.

* | | Do not use the ia64 clocksource on non-ia64 architecturesLinus Torvalds2007-08-311-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The HPET clocksource in drivers/char/hpet.c was written as generic code for ia64, but it is not yet ready to replace the native HPET clocksource implementations that the i386/x86-64 architectures use. On x86[-64], trying to register this clocksource results in potentially multiple hpet-based clocksources being registered, and if the ia64 one is chosen on x86_64 some users have experienced hangs. Eventually all three architectures may end up using the same code, but that is not the case right now.

In qeth_remove_device() an interruptible wait operation is used to wait until a qeth recovery thread is finished. If a user really interrupts the ungroup operation of a qeth device while a recovery is running, cio and qeth are out of sync (device already removed from cio, but kept in qeth). A following module unload of qeth results in a kernel OOPS here. Solution: Do not allow interruption of ungroup operation to guarantee finishing of a potentially running qeth recovery thread.

With the increase of the granularity due to the removal of HZ dependencies, this becomes visible in chew-max output (with 5 tasks running): out: 28 . 27. 32 | flu: 0 . 0 | ran: 9 . 13 | per: 37 . 40 out: 27 . 27. 32 | flu: 0 . 0 | ran: 17 . 13 | per: 44 . 40 out: 27 . 27. 32 | flu: 0 . 0 | ran: 9 . 13 | per: 36 . 40 out: 29 . 27. 32 | flu: 2 . 0 | ran: 17 . 13 | per: 46 . 40 out: 28 . 27. 32 | flu: 0 . 0 | ran: 9 . 13 | per: 37 . 40 out: 29 . 27. 32 | flu: 0 . 0 | ran: 18 . 13 | per: 47 . 40 out: 28 . 27. 32 | flu: 0 . 0 | ran: 9 . 13 | per: 37 . 40 average slice is the ideal 13 msecs and the period is picture-perfect 40 msecs. But the 'ran' field fluctuates around 13.33 msecs and there's no mechanism in CFS to keep that from happening: it's a perfectly valid solution that CFS finds. to fix this we add a granularity/preemption rule that knows about the "target latency", which makes tasks that run longer than the ideal latency run a bit less. The simplest approach is to simply decrease the preemption granularity when a task overruns its ideal latency. For this we have to track how much the task executed since its last preemption. ( this adds a new field to task_struct, but we can eliminate that overhead in 2.6.24 by putting all the scheduler timestamps into an anonymous union. ) with this change in place, chew-max output is fluctuation-less all around: out: 28 . 27. 39 | flu: 0 . 2 | ran: 13 . 13 | per: 41 . 40 out: 28 . 27. 39 | flu: 0 . 2 | ran: 13 . 13 | per: 41 . 40 out: 28 . 27. 39 | flu: 0 . 2 | ran: 13 . 13 | per: 41 . 40 out: 28 . 27. 39 | flu: 0 . 2 | ran: 13 . 13 | per: 41 . 40 out: 28 . 27. 39 | flu: 0 . 1 | ran: 13 . 13 | per: 41 . 40 out: 28 . 27. 39 | flu: 0 . 1 | ran: 13 . 13 | per: 41 . 40 this patch has no impact on any fastpath or on any globally observable scheduling property.

| * | | | sched: fix sleeper bonus limitMike Galbraith2007-08-281-1/+1

What is happening is that sleeper_bonus is never consumed, and only rarely goes below runtime_limit, so for the most part, Amarok isn't getting any bonus at all. We're keeping sleeper_bonus right at runtime_limit (sched_latency == sched_runtime_limit == 40ms) forever, ie we don't consume if we're lower that that, and don't add if we're above it. One Amarok thread waking (or anybody else) will push us past the threshold, so the next thread waking gets nada, but will reap pain from the previous thread waking until we drop back to runtime_limit. It looks to me like under load, some random task gets a bonus, and everybody else pays, whether deserving or not. This diff fixed the regression for me at any load rate.

Promise's partial- source FT TX4200 driver confirms this classification. Treating it as a first-generation chip causes several problems: 1. Detection failures. This is a recent regression triggered by the hotplug-enabling changes in 2.6.23-rc1. 2. Various "failed to resume link for reset" warnings.
