      efifb: allow user to disable write combined mapping. · dd0c41f8
      Dave Airlie authored
      This patch allows the user to disable write combined mapping
      of the efifb framebuffer console using an nowc option.
      
      A customer noticed major slowdowns while logging to the console
      with write combining enabled, on other tasks running on the same
      CPU. (10x or greater slow down on all other cores on the same CPU
      as is doing the logging).
      
      I reproduced this on a machine with dual CPUs.
      Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2609 v3 @ 1.90GHz (6 core)
      
      I wrote a test that just mmaps the pci bar and writes to it in
      a loop, while this was running in the background one a single
      core with (taskset -c 1), building a kernel up to init/version.o
      (taskset -c 8) went from 13s to 133s or so. I've yet to explain
      why this occurs or what is going wrong I haven't managed to find
      a perf command that in any way gives insight into this.
      
          11,885,070,715      instructions              #    1.39  insns per cycle
      vs
          12,082,592,342      instructions              #    0.13  insns per cycle
      
      is the only thing I've spotted of interest, I've tried at least:
      dTLB-stores,dTLB-store-misses,L1-dcache-stores,LLC-store,LLC-store-misses,LLC-load-misses,LLC-loads,\mem-loads,mem-stores,iTLB-loads,iTLB-load-misses,cache-references,cache-misses
      
      For now it seems at least a good idea to allow a user to disable write
      combining if they see this until we can figure it out.
      
      Note also most users get a real framebuffer driver loaded when kms
      kicks in, it just happens on these machines the kernel didn't support
      the gpu specific driver.

      NFSv4.1: Fix a race where CB_NOTIFY_LOCK fails to wake a waiter · b7dbcc0e
      Benjamin Coddington authored
      nfs4_retry_setlk() sets the task's state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE within the
      same region protected by the wait_queue's lock after checking for a
      notification from CB_NOTIFY_LOCK callback.  However, after releasing that
      lock, a wakeup for that task may race in before the call to
      freezable_schedule_timeout_interruptible() and set TASK_WAKING, then
      freezable_schedule_timeout_interruptible() will set the state back to
      TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE before the task will sleep.  The result is that the task
      will sleep for the entire duration of the timeout.
      
      Since we've already set TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE in the locked section, just use
      freezable_schedule_timout() instead.

      lightnvm: pblk: advance bio according to lba index · 75cb8e93
      Javier González authored
      When a lba either hits the cache or corresponds to an empty entry in the
      L2P table, we need to advance the bio according to the position in which
      the lba is located. Otherwise, we will copy data in the wrong page, thus
      causing data corruption for the application.
      
      In case of a cache hit, we assumed that bio->bi_iter.bi_idx would
      contain the correct index, but this is no necessarily true. Instead, use
      the local bio advance counter and iterator. This guarantees that lbas
      hitting the cache are copied into the right bv_page.
      
      In case of an empty L2P entry, we omitted to advance the bio. In the
      cases when the same I/O also contains a cache hit, data corresponding
      to this lba will be copied to the wrong bv_page. Fix this by advancing
      the bio as we do in the case of a cache hit.
