* [PATCH] Provide an interface for getting the current tick lengthPaul Mackerras2006-02-172-5/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This provides an interface for arch code to find out how many nanoseconds are going to be added on to xtime by the next call to do_timer. The value returned is a fixed-point number in 52.12 format in nanoseconds. The reason for this format is that it gives the full precision that the timekeeping code is using internally. The motivation for this is to fix a problem that has arisen on 32-bit powerpc in that the value returned by do_gettimeofday drifts apart from xtime if NTP is being used. PowerPC is now using a lockless do_gettimeofday based on reading the timebase register and performing some simple arithmetic. (This method of getting the time is also exported to userspace via the VDSO.) However, the factor and offset it uses were calculated based on the nominal tick length and weren't being adjusted when NTP varied the tick length. Note that 64-bit powerpc has had the lockless do_gettimeofday for a long time now. It also had an extremely hairy routine that got called from the 32-bit compat routine for adjtimex, which adjusted the factor and offset according to what it thought the timekeeping code was going to do. Not only was this only called if a 32-bit task did adjtimex (i.e. not if a 64-bit task did adjtimex), it was also duplicating computations from kernel/timer.c and it wasn't clear that it was (still) correct. The simple solution is to ask the timekeeping code how long the current jiffy will be on each timer interrupt, after calling do_timer. If this jiffy will be a different length from the last one, we then need to compute new values for the factor and offset used in the lockless do_gettimeofday. In this way we can keep xtime and do_gettimeofday in sync, even when NTP is varying the tick length. Note that when adjtimex varies the tick length, it almost always introduces the variation from the next tick on. The only case I could see where adjtimex would vary the length of the current tick is when an old-style adjtime adjustment is being cancelled. (It's not clear to me why the adjustment has to be cancelled immediately rather than from the next tick on.) Thus I don't see any real need for a hook in adjtimex; the rare case of an old-style adjustment being cancelled can be fixed up at the next tick.

* [PATCH] Handle all and empty zones when setting up custom zonelists for mbindAndi Kleen2006-02-171-4/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The memory allocator doesn't like empty zones (which have an uninitialized freelist), so a x86-64 system with a node fully in GFP_DMA32 only would crash on mbind. Fix that up by putting all possible zones as fallback into the zonelist and skipping the empty ones. In fact the code always enough allocated space for all zones, but only used it for the highest. This change just uses all the memory that was allocated before. This should work fine for now, but whoever implements node hot removal needs to fix this somewhere else too (or make sure zone datastructures by itself never go away, only their memory) Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Acked-by: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

ACPI doesnt give a determinstic method to find hot-pluggable CPUs.

Without which user can still use logical onlining and offlining of CPUs by enabling CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y Adds more bits to cpu_possible_map for potentially hot-pluggable cpus.

The first fix (now in 2.6.15) broke the delay loop into smaller, non-preemptible chunks, reenabling preemption between the chunks. This fix is flawed in that the total udelay is computed to be the sum of just the non-premptible while-loop pieces, i.e., not counting the time spent in the interim preemptible periods. If an interrupt or a migration occurs during one of these interim periods, then that time is invisible and only serves to lengthen the effective udelay(). This new fix backs out the current flawed fix and returns to a simple udelay(), fully preemptible and interruptible. It implements two simple alternative udelay() routines: one a default generic version that uses ia64_get_itc(), and the other an sn-specific version that uses that platform's RTC.

| * | | | [SCSI] fix wrong context bugs in SCSIJames Bottomley2006-02-142-23/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a bug in releasing scsi_device where the release function actually frees the block queue. However, the block queue release calls flush_work(), which requires process context (the scsi_device structure may release from irq context). Update the release function to invoke via the execute_in_process_context() API. Also clean up the scsi_target structure releasing via this API.

| * | | | [PATCH] add scsi_execute_in_process_context() APIJames Bottomley2006-02-142-0/+61
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have several points in the SCSI stack (primarily for our device functions) where we need to guarantee process context, but (given the place where the last reference was released) we cannot guarantee this. This API gets around the issue by executing the function directly if the caller has process context, but scheduling a workqueue to execute in process context if the caller doesn't have it. Unfortunately, it requires memory allocation in interrupt context, but it's better than what we have previously. The true solution will require a bit of re-engineering, so isn't appropriate for 2.6.16. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
| * | | | [SCSI] sym2: Mask off opcode from RBCMatthew Wilcox2006-02-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pm->sg.size is set from the Residual Byte Count register. However, the upper byte of the RBC is the opcode of the instruction that was executing, so we need to mask it off. This fixes some spurious rejects of IGNORE WIDE RESIDUE messages.
