writeback_single_inode() doesn't need wb->list_lock for anything on entry now. So remove the requirement. This makes locking of writeback_single_inode() temporarily awkward (entering with i_lock, returning with i_lock and wb->list_lock) but it will be sanitized in the next patch. Also inode_wait_for_writeback() doesn't need wb->list_lock for anything. It was just taking it to make usage convenient for callers but with writeback_single_inode() changing it's not very convenient anymore. So remove the lock from that function.

Instead of clearing I_DIRTY_PAGES and resetting it when we didn't succeed in writing them all, just clear the bit only when we succeeded writing all the pages. We also move the clearing of the bit close to other i_state handling to separate it from writeback list handling. This is desirable because list handling will differ for flusher thread and other writeback_single_inode() callers in future. No filesystem plays any tricks with I_DIRTY_PAGES (like checking it in ->writepages or ->write_inode implementation) so this movement is safe.

When writeback_single_inode() is called on inode which has I_SYNC already set while doing WB_SYNC_NONE, inode is moved to b_more_io list. However this makes sense only if the caller is flusher thread. For other callers of writeback_single_inode() it doesn't really make sense and may be even wrong - flusher thread may be doing WB_SYNC_ALL writeback in parallel. So we move requeueing from writeback_single_inode() to writeback_sb_inodes().

Move clearing of I_SYNC into inode_sync_complete(). It is more logical to have clearing of I_SYNC bit and waking of waiters in one place. Also later we will have two places needing to clear I_SYNC and wake up waiters so this allows them to use the common helper. Moving of I_SYNC clearing to a later stage of writeback_single_inode() is safe since we hold i_lock all the time.

This prevents global_dirty_limit from remaining 0 (the initial value) for long time, since it's only updated in update_dirty_limit() when above the dirty freerun area. It will avoid unexpected consequences when some random code use it as a convenient approximation of the global dirty threshold. Signed-off-by: Fengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@intel.com>

Reorder structure writeback_control to remove 8 bytes of padding on 64 bit builds, this shrinks its size from 48 to 40 bytes. This structure is always on the stack and uses C99 named initialisation, so should be safe and have a small impact on stack usage.

Pull block core bits from Jens Axboe: "It's a nice and quiet round this time, since most of the tricky stuff has been pushed to 3.5 to give it more time to mature. After a few hectic block IO core changes for 3.3 and 3.2, I'm quite happy with a slow round. Really minor stuff in here, the only real functional change is making the auto-unplug threshold a per-queue entity. The threshold is set so that it's low enough that we don't hold off IO for too long, but still big enough to get a nice benefit from the batched insert (and hence queue lock cost reduction).

The OMAP driver needs a 'depends on ARCH_OMAP2PLUS' since it only builds for OMAP2+ platforms. This 'depends on' was in the original patch from Russell King, but was erroneously removed by me when making this option user-selectable in commit b09db45c (cpufreq: OMAP driver depends CPUfreq tables.) This patch remedies that. Apologies to Russell King for breaking his originally working patch. Also, thanks to Grazvydas Ignotas for reporting the same problem.

The invocation of softirq is now handled by irq_exit(), so there is no need for sparc64 to invoke it on the trap-return path. In fact, doing so is a bug because if the trap occurred in the idle loop, this invocation can result in lockdep-RCU failures. The problem is that RCU ignores idle CPUs, and the sparc64 trap-return path to the softirq handlers fails to tell RCU that the CPU must be considered non-idle while those handlers are executing. This means that RCU is ignoring any RCU read-side critical sections in those handlers, which in turn means that RCU-protected data can be yanked out from under those read-side critical sections. The shiny new lockdep-RCU ability to detect RCU read-side critical sections that RCU is ignoring located this problem. The fix is straightforward: Make sparc64 stop manually invoking the softirq handlers. Reported-by: Meelis Roos <mroos@linux.ee> Suggested-by: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Paul Gortmaker authored
Using IS_ENABLED() within C (vs. within CPP #if statements) in its current form requires us to actually define every possible bool/tristate Kconfig option twice (__enabled_* and __enabled_*_MODULE variants). This results in a huge autoconf.h file, on the order of 16k lines for a x86_64 defconfig. Fixing IS_ENABLED to be able to work on the smaller subset of just things that we really have defined is step one to fixing this. Which means it has to not choke when fed non-enabled options, such as: include/linux/netdevice.h:964:1: warning: "__enabled_CONFIG_FCOE_MODULE" is not defined [-Wundef] The original prototype of how to implement a C and preprocessor compatible way of doing this came from the Google+ user "comex ." in response to Linus' crowdsourcing challenge for a possible improvement on his earlier C specific solution: #define config_enabled(x) (__stringify(x)[0] == '1') In this implementation, I've chosen variable names that hopefully make how it works more understandable.

A user reported that booting his box up with btrfs root on 3.4 was way slower than on 3.3 because I removed the ideal caching code. It turns out that we don't load the free space cache if we're in a commit for deadlock reasons, but since we're reading the cache and it hasn't changed yet we are safe reading the inode and free space item from the commit root, so do that and remove all of the deadlock checks so we don't unnecessarily skip loading the free space cache. The user reported this fixed the slowness.

If, in __persistent_ram_init(), the call to persistent_ram_buffer_init() fails or the call to persistent_ram_init_ecc() fails then we fail to free the memory we allocated to 'prz' with kzalloc() - thus leaking it. To prevent the leaks I consolidated all error exits from the function at a 'err:' label at the end and made all error cases jump to that label where we can then make sure we always free 'prz'. This is safe since all the situations where the code bails out happen before 'prz' has been stored anywhere and although we'll do a redundant kfree(NULL) call in the case of kzalloc() itself failing that's OK since kfree() deals gracefully with NULL pointers and I felt it was more important to keep all error exits at a single location than to avoid that one harmless/redundant kfree() on a error path.

If copy_to_user() fails in the WLAN_CMD_GET_NODE_LIST case of the switch in drivers/staging/vt6656/ioctl.c::private_ioctl() we'll leak the memory allocated to 'pNodeList'. Fix that by kfree'ing the memory in the failure case. Also remove a pointless cast (to type 'PSNodeList') of a kmalloc() return value - kmalloc() returns a void pointer that is implicitly converted, so there is no need for an explicit cast.
