Look at the display fix patch, maybe it does help you.

The problem with the display was, that power_mode wasn't the expected_mode.
So this little patch should fix it, but it's just a workaround and not
the final solution.

The used-once mapped file page detection patchset.

It is meant to help workloads with large amounts of shortly used file
mappings, like rtorrent hashing a file or git when dealing with loose
objects (git gc on a bigger site?).

Right now, the VM activates referenced mapped file pages on first
encounter on the inactive list and it takes a full memory cycle to
reclaim them again.  When those pages dominate memory, the system
no longer has a meaningful notion of 'working set' and is required
to give up the active list to make reclaim progress.  Obviously,
this results in rather bad scanning latencies and the wrong pages
being reclaimed.

This patch makes the VM be more careful about activating mapped file
pages in the first place.  The minimum granted lifetime without
another memory access becomes an inactive list cycle instead of the
full memory cycle, which is more natural given the mentioned loads.

This test resembles a hashing rtorrent process.  Sequentially, 32MB
chunks of a file are mapped into memory, hashed (sha1) and unmapped
again.  While this happens, every 5 seconds a process is launched and
its execution time taken:

	python2.4 -c 'import pydoc'
	old: max=2.31s mean=1.26s (0.34)
	new: max=1.25s mean=0.32s (0.32)

	find /etc -type f
	old: max=2.52s mean=1.44s (0.43)
	new: max=1.92s mean=0.12s (0.17)

	vim -c ':quit'
	old: max=6.14s mean=4.03s (0.49)
	new: max=3.48s mean=2.41s (0.25)

	mplayer --help
	old: max=8.08s mean=5.74s (1.02)
	new: max=3.79s mean=1.32s (0.81)

	overall hash time (stdev):
	old: time=1192.30 (12.85) thruput=25.78mb/s (0.27)
	new: time=1060.27 (32.58) thruput=29.02mb/s (0.88) (-11%)

I also tested kernbench with regular IO streaming in the background to
see whether the delayed activation of frequently used mapped file
pages had a negative impact on performance in the presence of pressure
on the inactive list.  The patch made no significant difference in
timing, neither for kernbench nor for the streaming IO throughput.

The first patch submission raised concerns about the cost of the extra
faults for actually activated pages on machines that have no hardware
support for young page table entries.

I created an artificial worst case scenario on an ARM machine with
around 300MHz and 64MB of memory to figure out the dimensions
involved.  The test would mmap a file of 20MB, then

  1. touch all its pages to fault them in
  2. force one full scan cycle on the inactive file LRU
  -- old: mapping pages activated
  -- new: mapping pages inactive
  3. touch the mapping pages again
  -- old and new: fault exceptions to set the young bits
  4. force another full scan cycle on the inactive file LRU
  5. touch the mapping pages one last time
  -- new: fault exceptions to set the young bits

The test showed an overall increase of 6% in time over 100 iterations
of the above (old: ~212sec, new: ~225sec).  13 secs total overhead /
(100 * 5k pages), ignoring the execution time of the test itself,
makes for about 25us overhead for every page that gets actually
activated.  Note:

  1. File mapping the size of one third of main memory, _completely_
  in active use across memory pressure - i.e., most pages referenced
  within one LRU cycle.  This should be rare to non-existant,
  especially on such embedded setups.

  2. Many huge activation batches.  Those batches only occur when the
  working set fluctuates.  If it changes completely between every full
  LRU cycle, you have problematic reclaim overhead anyway.

  3. Access of activated pages at maximum speed: sequential loads from
  every single page without doing anything in between.  In reality,
  the extra faults will get distributed between actual operations on
  the data.

So even if a workload manages to get the VM into the situation of
activating a third of memory in one go on such a setup, it will take
2.2 seconds instead 2.1 without the patch.

Comparing the numbers (and my user-experience over several months),
I think this change is an overall improvement to the VM.

Patch 1 is only refactoring to break up that ugly compound conditional
in shrink_page_list() and make it easy to document and add new checks
in a readable fashion.

Patch 2 gets rid of the obsolete page_mapping_inuse().  It's not
strictly related to #3, but it was in the original submission and is a
net simplification, so I kept it.

Patch 3 implements used-once detection of mapped file pages.

This patch:

Moving the big conditional into its own predicate function makes the code
a bit easier to read and allows for better commenting on the checks
one-by-one.

This is just cleaning up, no semantics should have been changed.

dump_tasks() needs to hold the RCU read lock around its access of the
target task's UID.  To this end it should use task_uid() as it only needs
that one thing from the creds.

The fact that dump_tasks() holds tasklist_lock is insufficient to prevent the
target process replacing its credentials on another CPU.

Then, this patch change to call rcu_read_lock() explicitly.

Errata Titles:
i103: Delay needed to read some GP timer, WD timer and sync timer
      registers after wakeup (OMAP3/4)
i767: Delay needed to read some GP timer registers after wakeup (OMAP5)

Description (i103/i767):
If a General Purpose Timer (GPTimer) is in posted mode
(TSICR [2].POSTED=1), due to internal resynchronizations, values read in
TCRR, TCAR1 and TCAR2 registers right after the timer interface clock
(L4) goes from stopped to active may not return the expected values. The
most common event leading to this situation occurs upon wake up from
idle.

GPTimer non-posted synchronization mode is not impacted by this
limitation.

Workarounds:
1). Disable posted mode
2). Use static dependency between timer clock domain and MPUSS clock
    domain
3). Use no-idle mode when the timer is active

Workarounds #2 and #3 are not pratical from a power standpoint and so
workaround #1 has been implemented. Disabling posted mode adds some CPU
overhead for configuring and reading the timers as the CPU has to wait
for accesses to be re-synchronised within the timer. However, disabling
posted mode guarantees correct operation.

Please note that it is safe to use posted mode for timers if the counter
(TCRR) and capture (TCARx) registers will never be read. An example of
this is the clock-event system timer. This is used by the kernel to
schedule events however, the timers counter is never read and capture
registers are not used. Given that the kernel configures this timer
often yet never reads the counter register it is safe to enable posted
mode in this case. Hence, for the timer used for kernel clock-events,
posted mode is enabled by overriding the errata for devices that are
impacted by this defect.

For drivers using the timers that do not read the counter or capture
registers and wish to use posted mode, can override the errata and
enable posted mode by making the following function calls.

	__omap_dm_timer_override_errata(timer, OMAP_TIMER_ERRATA_I103_I767);
	__omap_dm_timer_enable_posted(timer);

Both dmtimers and watchdogs are impacted by this defect this patch only
implements the workaround for the dmtimer. Currently the watchdog driver
does not read the counter register and so no workaround is necessary.

Posted mode will be disabled for all OMAP2+ devices (including AM33xx)
using a GP timer as a clock-source timer to guarantee correct operation.
This is not necessary for OMAP24xx devices but the default clock-source
timer for OMAP24xx devices is the 32k-sync timer and not the GP timer
and so should not have any impact. This should be re-visited for future
devices if this errata is fixed.

Confirmed with Vaibhav Hiremath that this bug also impacts AM33xx
devices.

…d_counter

Commit 2f0778a (ARM: 7205/2: sched_clock: allow sched_clock to be
selected at runtime) had a typo for the case when CONFIG_OMAP_32K_TIMER
is not set.

In dmtimer_read_sched_clock(), wrong argument was getting passed to
__omap_dm_timer_read_counter() function call; instead of "&clksrc",
we were passing "clksrc.io_base", which results into kernel crash.

To reproduce kernel crash, just disable the CONFIG_OMAP_32K_TIMER config
option (and DEBUG_LL) and build/boot the kernel.
This will use dmtimer as a kernel clocksource and lead to kernel
crash during boot  -

During GC LogFS has to rewrite each valid block to a separate segment.
Rewrite operation reads data from an old segment and writes it to a
newly allocated segment. Since every write operation changes data
block pointers maintained in inode, inode should also be rewritten.

In GC path to avoid AB-BA deadlock LogFS marks a page with
PG_pre_locked in addition to locking the page (PG_locked). The page
lock is ignored iff the page is pre-locked.

LogFS uses a special file called segment file. The segment file
maintains an 8 bytes entry for every segment. It keeps track of erase
count, level etc. for every segment.

Bad things happen with a segment belonging to the segment file is GCed

The patch passes locked page to __logfs_write_inode. It calls function
logfs_get_wblocks() to pre-lock the page. This ensures any further
attempts to lock the page are ignored (esp from get_erase_count).

…S block during isolation for migration

When isolating for migration, migration starts at the start of a zone
which is not necessarily pageblock aligned.  Further, it stops isolating
when COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX pages are isolated so migrate_pfn is generally
not aligned.  This allows isolate_migratepages() to call pfn_to_page() on
an invalid PFN which can result in a crash.  This was originally reported
against a 3.0-based kernel with the following trace in a crash dump.

It was also reported by Herbert van den Bergh against 3.1-based kernel
with the following snippet from the console log.

BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 01c00008
IP: [<c0522399>] isolate_migratepages+0x119/0x390
*pdpt = 000000002f7ce001 *pde = 0000000000000000

It is expected that it also affects 3.2.x and current mainline.

The problem is that pfn_valid is only called on the first PFN being
checked and that PFN is not necessarily aligned.  Lets say we have a case
like this

H = MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES boundary
| = pageblock boundary
m = cc->migrate_pfn
f = cc->free_pfn
o = memory hole

H------|------H------|----m-Hoooooo|ooooooH-f----|------H

The migrate_pfn is just below a memory hole and the free scanner is beyond
the hole.  When isolate_migratepages started, it scans from migrate_pfn to
migrate_pfn+pageblock_nr_pages which is now in a memory hole.  It checks
pfn_valid() on the first PFN but then scans into the hole where there are
not necessarily valid struct pages.

This patch ensures that isolate_migratepages calls pfn_valid when
necessary.

If the netdev is already in NETREG_UNREGISTERING/_UNREGISTERED state, do not
update the real num tx queues. netdev_queue_update_kobjects() is already
called via remove_queue_kobjects() at NETREG_UNREGISTERING time. So, when
upper layer driver, e.g., FCoE protocol stack is monitoring the netdev
event of NETDEV_UNREGISTER and calls back to LLD ndo_fcoe_disable() to remove
extra queues allocated for FCoE, the associated txq sysfs kobjects are already
removed, and trying to update the real num queues would cause something like
below:

Since bluetooth uses multiple protocols types, to avoid lockdep
warnings, we need to use different lockdep classes (one for each
protocol type).

This is already done in bt_sock_create but it misses a couple of cases
when new connections are created. This patch corrects that to fix the
following warning:

root complex: 80:02.2
pci express modules: have pcie switch and are listed as b0:00.0, b1:02.0 and b1:03.0.
end devices  are b2:00.0 and b3.00.0.
VFs are: b2:00.1,... b2:00.3, and b3:00.1,...,b3:00.3

Root cause: when doing pci_stop_bus_device() with phys fn, it will stop
virt fn and remove the fn, so
	list_for_each_safe(l, n, &bus->devices)
will have problem to refer freed n that is pointed to vf entry.

Solution is just replacing list_for_each_safe() with
list_for_each_prev_safe().  This will make sure we can get valid n pointer
to PF instead of the freed VF pointer (because newly added devices are
inserted to the bus->devices list tail).

During reviewing the patch, Bjorn said:
|   The PCI hot-remove path calls pci_stop_bus_devices() via
|   pci_remove_bus_device().
|
|   pci_stop_bus_devices() traverses the bus->devices list (point A below),
|   stopping each device in turn, which calls the driver remove() method.  When
|   the device is an SR-IOV PF, the driver calls pci_disable_sriov(), which
|   also uses pci_remove_bus_device() to remove the VF devices from the
|   bus->devices list (point B).
|
|       pci_remove_bus_device
|         pci_stop_bus_device
|           pci_stop_bus_devices(subordinate)
|             list_for_each(bus->devices)             <-- A
|               pci_stop_bus_device(PF)
|                 ...
|                   driver->remove
|                     pci_disable_sriov
|                       ...
|                         pci_remove_bus_device(VF)
|                             <remove from bus_list>  <-- B
|
|   At B, we're changing the same list we're iterating through at A, so when
|   the driver remove() method returns, the pci_stop_bus_devices() iterator has
|   a pointer to a list entry that has already been freed.

				 https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/23/360

-v5: According to Linus to make remove more robust, Change to
     list_for_each_prev_safe instead. That is more reasonable, because
     those devices are added to tail of the list before.

Since bluetooth uses multiple protocols types, to avoid lockdep
warnings, we need to use different lockdep classes (one for each

This is already done in bt_sock_create but it misses a couple of cases

The <linux/device.h> header includes a lot of stuff, and
it in turn gets a lot of use just for the basic "struct device"
which appears so often.

Clean up the users as follows:

1) For those headers only needing "struct device" as a pointer
in fcn args, replace the include with exactly that.

2) For headers not really using anything from device.h, simply
delete the include altogether.

3) For headers relying on getting device.h implicitly before
being included themselves, now explicitly include device.h

4) For files in which doing #1 or #2 uncovers an implicit
dependency on some other header, fix by explicitly adding
the required header(s).

Any C files that were implicitly relying on device.h to be
present have already been dealt with in advance.

Total removals from #1 and #2: 51.  Total additions coming
from #3: 9.  Total other implicit dependencies from #4: 7.

As of 3.3-rc1, there were 110, so a net removal of 42 gives
about a 38% reduction in device.h presence in include/*

Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells:
 "Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of
  separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion
  dependencies.

  I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can
  and made sure that they don't break.

  The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular
  dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to
  optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2().

  This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in
  asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h.

  The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h.  It holds a number of
  low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg.
  memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that
  aren't used in many places (eg.  switch_to()).

  These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces:

    (1) asm/barrier.h

        Move memory barriers here.  This already done for MIPS and Alpha.

    (2) asm/switch_to.h

        Move switch_to() and related stuff here.

    (3) asm/exec.h

        Move arch_align_stack() here.  Other process execution related bits
        could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h.

    (4) asm/cmpxchg.h

        Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and
        frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg().

    (5) asm/bug.h

        Move die() and related bits.

    (6) asm/auxvec.h

        Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.

  Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."

Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code
around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat
weakened by that.  We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it..

is removed. The interrupt handler schedules a workqueue which
acquires a mutex that ks8851_net_stop() also acquires before
flushing the workqueue. Previously lockdep wouldn't be able
to find this problem but now that it has the support we can
trigger this lockdep warning by rmmoding the driver after
an ifconfig up.

Fix the possible deadlock by disabling the interrupts in
the chip and then release the lock across the workqueue
flushing. The mutex is only there to proect the registers
anyway so this should be ok.

When holding the mmap_sem for reading, pmd_offset_map_lock should only
run on a pmd_t that has been read atomically from the pmdp pointer,
otherwise we may read only half of it leading to this crash.

This should be a longstanding bug affecting x86 32bit PAE without THP.
Only archs with 64bit large pmd_t and 32bit unsigned long should be
affected.

With THP enabled the barrier() in pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad()
would partly hide the bug when the pmd transition from none to stable,
by forcing a re-read of the *pmd in pmd_offset_map_lock, but when THP is
enabled a new set of problem arises by the fact could then transition
freely in any of the none, pmd_trans_huge or pmd_trans_stable states.
So making the barrier in pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad()
unconditional isn't good idea and it would be a flakey solution.

This should be fully fixed by introducing a pmd_read_atomic that reads
the pmd in order with THP disabled, or by reading the pmd atomically
with cmpxchg8b with THP enabled.

Luckily this new race condition only triggers in the places that must
already be covered by pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() so the fix
is localized there but this bug is not related to THP.

NOTE: this can trigger on x86 32bit systems with PAE enabled with more
than 4G of ram, otherwise the high part of the pmd will never risk to be
truncated because it would be zero at all times, in turn so hiding the
SMP race.

This bug was discovered and fully debugged by Ulrich, quote:

----
[..]
pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() loads the content of edx and
eax.

    496 static inline int pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(pmd_t
    *pmd)
    497 {
    498         /* depend on compiler for an atomic pmd read */
    499         pmd_t pmdval = *pmd;

                                // edi = pmd pointer
0xc0507a74 <sys_mincore+548>:   mov    0x8(%esp),%edi
...
                                // edx = PTE page table high address
0xc0507a84 <sys_mincore+564>:   mov    0x4(%edi),%edx
...
                                // eax = PTE page table low address
0xc0507a8e <sys_mincore+574>:   mov    (%edi),%eax

[..]

Please note that the PMD is not read atomically. These are two "mov"
instructions where the high order bits of the PMD entry are fetched
first. Hence, the above machine code is prone to the following race.

-  The PMD entry {high|low} is 0x0000000000000000.
   The "mov" at 0xc0507a84 loads 0x00000000 into edx.

-  A page fault (on another CPU) sneaks in between the two "mov"
   instructions and instantiates the PMD.

-  The PMD entry {high|low} is now 0x00000003fda38067.
   The "mov" at 0xc0507a8e loads 0xfda38067 into eax.

Errata Title:
GP and WD Timer Returns Incorrect Time Due to Dynamic Clock Gating

Description:
After wakeup from IDLE state, it is possible to read the old value of the
counter (the value before IDLE state) on general-purpose timers and watchdog
timers. Only impacts posted mode.

Workarounds:
1). Disable posted mode
2). Use static dependency between timer clock domain and MPUSS clock domain
3). Use no-idle mode when the timer is active

Workarounds #2 and #3 are not pratical from a power standpoint and so
workaround #1 has been implemented. Disabling posted mode adds some CPU overhead
for configuring the timers as the CPU has to wait for the write to complete.
However, disabling posted mode guarantees correct operation.

Please note that it is safe to use posted mode for timers if the counter
register will never be read. An example of this is the clock-event system
timer. This is used by the kernel to schedule events however, the timers
counter is never read. Given that the kernel configures this timer often yet
never reads the counter register it is safe to enable posted mode in this case.
Hence, for the timer used for kernel clock-events, posted mode is enabled by
overriding the errata for devices that are impacted by this defect.

Although both dmtimers and watchdogs are impacted by this defect this patch only
implements the workaround for the dmtimer. The workaround for the watchdog timer
has been implemented separately by patch "ARM: OMAP5: Implement workaround for
sync-timer and watchdog errata".

It should be noted that when using posted mode there is another defect that can
cause the timer counter to return an incorrect value, if the timer interface
clock is greater or equal to 4 times the function clock frequency. By disabling
posted mode this defect is also avoided.

vmxnet3's netpoll driver is incorrectly coded.  It directly calls
vmxnet3_do_poll, which is the driver internal napi poll routine.  As the netpoll
controller method doesn't block real napi polls in any way, there is a potential
for race conditions in which the netpoll controller method and the napi poll
method run concurrently.  The result is data corruption causing panics such as this
one recently observed:

The fix is to do as other drivers do, and have the poll controller call the top
half interrupt handler, which schedules a napi poll properly to recieve frames

Tested by myself, successfully.

If a driver calls enable_irq_wake() on a gpio turned interrupt
from the msm pinctrl driver we'll get a lockdep warning like so:

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

Or Gerlitz says:

====================
mlx4: Add SRIOV support for RoCE

This series adds SRIOV support for RoCE (RDMA over Ethernet) to the mlx4 driver.

The patches are against net-next, as of commit 2d8d40a "pkt_sched: fq:
do not hold qdisc lock while allocating memory"

changes from V1:
 - addressed feedback from Dave on patch #3 and changed get_real_sgid_index()
   to be called fill_in_real_sgid_index() and be a void  function.
 - removed some checkpatch warnings on long lines

changes from V0:
  - always check the return code of mlx4_get_roce_gid_from_slave().
    The call we fixed is introduced in patch #1 and later removed by
    patch #3 that allows guests to have multiple GIDS. The 1..3
    separation was done for proper division of patches to logical changes.

The following pattern is currently not well supported by RCU:

1.	Make data element inaccessible to RCU readers.

2.	Do work that probably lasts for more than one grace period.

3.	Do something to make sure RCU readers in flight before #1 above
	have completed.

Here are some things that could currently be done:

a.	Do a synchronize_rcu() unconditionally at either #1 or #3 above.
	This works, but imposes needless work and latency.

b.	Post an RCU callback at #1 above that does a wakeup, then
	wait for the wakeup at #3.  This works well, but likely results
	in an extra unneeded grace period.  Open-coding this is also
	a bit more semi-tricky code than would be good.

This commit therefore adds get_state_synchronize_rcu() and
cond_synchronize_rcu() APIs.  Call get_state_synchronize_rcu() at #1
above and pass its return value to cond_synchronize_rcu() at #3 above.
This results in a call to synchronize_rcu() if no grace period has
elapsed between #1 and #3, but requires only a load, comparison, and
memory barrier if a full grace period did elapse.

I'm transitioning maintainership of the xHCI driver to my colleague,
Mathias Nyman.  The xHCI driver is in good shape, and it's time for me
to move on to the next shiny thing. :)

There's a few known outstanding bugs that we have plans for how to fix:

1. Clear Halt issue that means some USB scanners fail after one scan
2. TD fragment issue that means USB ethernet scatter-gather doesn't work
3. xHCI command queue issues that cause the driver to die when a USB
   device doesn't respond to a Set Address control transfer when another
   command is outstanding.
4. USB port power off for Haswell-ULT is a complete disaster.

Mathias is putting the finishing touches on a fix for #3, which will
make it much easier to craft a solution for #1.  Dan William has an
ACKed RFC for #4 that may land in 3.16, after much testing.  I'm working
with Mathias to come up with an architectural solution for #2.

I don't foresee very many big features coming down the pipe for USB
(which is part of the reason it's a good time to change now).  SSIC is
mostly a hardware-level change (perhaps with some PHY drivers needed),
USB 3.1 is again mostly a hardware-level change with some software
engineering to communicate the speed increase to the device drivers, add
new device descriptor parsing to lsusb, but definitely nothing as big as
USB 3.0 was.

There are two problematic situations.

A deadlock can happen when is_percpu is false because it can get
interrupted while holding the spinlock. Then it executes
ovs_flow_stats_update() in softirq context which tries to get
the same lock.

The second sitation is that when is_percpu is true, the code
correctly disables BH but only for the local CPU, so the
following can happen when locking the remote CPU without
disabling BH:

       CPU#0                            CPU#1
  ovs_flow_stats_get()
   stats_read()
 +->spin_lock remote CPU#1        ovs_flow_stats_get()
 |  <interrupted>                  stats_read()
 |  ...                       +-->  spin_lock remote CPU#0
 |                            |     <interrupted>
 |  ovs_flow_stats_update()   |     ...
 |   spin_lock local CPU#0 <--+     ovs_flow_stats_update()
 +---------------------------------- spin_lock local CPU#1

This patch disables BH for both cases fixing the deadlocks.

xen-netback: fix rx slot estimation

Sander Eikelenboom reported an issue with ring overflow in netback in
3.14-rc3. This turns outo be be because of a bug in the ring slot estimation
code. This patch series fixes the slot estimation, fixes the BUG_ON() that
was supposed to catch the issue that Sander ran into and also makes a small
fix to start_new_rx_buffer().

v3:
 - Added a cap of MAX_SKB_FRAGS to estimate in patch #2

v2:
 - Added BUG_ON() to patch #1
 - Added more explanation to patch #3

The Synopsys APB DW UART has a couple of special features that are not
in the System C model. In 3.8, the 8250_dw driver didn't really use these
features, but from 3.9 onwards, the 8250_dw driver has become incompatible
with our model.

This patch changes isert_conn_create_fastreg_pool() to follow
logic in iscsi_target_locate_portal() for determining how many
FRMR descriptors to allocate based upon the number of possible
per-session command slots that are available.

This addresses an OOPs in isert_reg_rdma() where due to the
use of ISCSI_DEF_XMIT_CMDS_MAX could end up returning a bogus
fast_reg_descriptor when the number of active tags exceeded
the original hardcoded max.

Note this also includes moving isert_conn_create_fastreg_pool()
from isert_connect_request() to isert_put_login_tx() before
posting the final Login Response PDU in order to determine the
se_nacl->queue_depth (eg: number of tags) per session the target
will be enforcing.

v2 changes:
  - Move isert_conn->conn_fr_pool list_head init into
    isert_conn_request()
v3 changes:
  - Drop unnecessary list_empty() check in isert_reg_rdma()

This patch fixes a bug where outstanding RDMA_READs with WRITE_PENDING
status require an extra target_put_sess_cmd() in isert_put_cmd() code
when called from isert_cq_tx_comp_err() + isert_cq_drain_comp_llist()
context during session shutdown.

The extra kref PUT is required so that transport_generic_free_cmd()
invokes the last target_put_sess_cmd() -> target_release_cmd_kref(),
which will complete(&se_cmd->cmd_wait_comp) the outstanding se_cmd
descriptor with WRITE_PENDING status, and awake the completion in
target_wait_for_sess_cmds() to invoke TFO->release_cmd().

The bug was manifesting itself in target_wait_for_sess_cmds() where
a se_cmd descriptor with WRITE_PENDING status would end up sleeping
indefinately.

With EXT4FS_DEBUG ext4_count_free_clusters() will call
ext4_read_block_bitmap() without s_group_info initialized, so we need to
initialize multi-block allocator before.

And dependencies that must be solved, to allow this:
- multi-block allocator needs in group descriptors
- need to install s_op before initializing multi-block allocator,
  because in ext4_mb_init_backend() new inode is created.
- initialize number of group desc blocks (s_gdb_count) otherwise
  number of clusters returned by ext4_free_clusters_after_init() is not correct.

There was a very small race window where resume to kernel mode from a
Exception Path (or pure kernel mode which is true for most of ARC
exceptions anyways), was not disabling interrupts in restore_regs,
clobbering the exception regs

Anton found the culprit call flow (after many sleepless nights)

| 1. we got a Trap from user land
| 2. started to service it.
| 3. While doing some stuff on user-land memory (I think it is padzero()),
|     we got a DataTlbMiss
| 4. On return from it we are taking "resume_kernel_mode" path
| 5. NEED_RESHED is not set, so we go to "return from exception" path in

As trace event triggers are now part of the mainline kernel, I added
my trace event trigger tests to my test suite I run on all my kernels.
Now these tests get run under different config options, and one of
those options is CONFIG_PROVE_RCU, which checks under lockdep that
the rcu locking primitives are being used correctly. This triggered
the following splat:

The cause is that the triggers are protected by rcu_read_lock_sched() but
the data is dereferenced with rcu_dereference() which expects it to
be protected with rcu_read_lock(). The proper reference should be
rcu_dereference_sched().

During the recent conversion of cgroup to kernfs, cgroup_tree_mutex
which nests above both the kernfs s_active protection and cgroup_mutex
is added to synchronize cgroup file type operations as cgroup_mutex
needed to be grabbed from some file operations and thus can't be put
above s_active protection.

While this arrangement mostly worked for cgroup, this triggered the
following lockdep warning.

This is a highly unlikely but valid circular dependency between "echo
1 > blkcg.reset_stats" and cfq module [un]loading.  cgroup is going
through further locking update which will remove this complication but
for now let's use trylock on blkcg_pol_mutex and retry the file
operation if the trylock fails.

After 96d365e ("cgroup: make css_set_lock a rwsem and rename it
to css_set_rwsem"), css task iterators requires sleepable context as
it may block on css_set_rwsem.  I missed that cgroup_freezer was
iterating tasks under IRQ-safe spinlock freezer->lock.  This leads to
errors like the following on freezer state reads and transitions.

freezer->lock used to be used in hot paths but that time is long gone
and there's no reason for the lock to be IRQ-safe spinlock or even
per-cgroup.  In fact, given the fact that a cgroup may contain large
number of tasks, it's not a good idea to iterate over them while
holding IRQ-safe spinlock.

Let's simplify locking by replacing per-cgroup freezer->lock with
global freezer_mutex.  This also makes the comments explaining the
intricacies of policy inheritance and the locking around it as the
states are protected by a common mutex.

The conversion is mostly straight-forward.  The followings are worth
mentioning.

* freezer_css_online() no longer needs double locking.

* freezer_attach() now performs propagation simply while holding
  freezer_mutex.  update_if_frozen() race no longer exists and the
  comment is removed.

* freezer_fork() now tests whether the task is in root cgroup using
  the new task_css_is_root() without doing rcu_read_lock/unlock().  If
  not, it grabs freezer_mutex and performs the operation.

* freezer_read() and freezer_change_state() grab freezer_mutex across
  the whole operation and pin the css while iterating so that each
  descendant processing happens in sleepable context.

This patch fixes a free-after-use regression in ft_free_cmd(), where
ft_sess_put() is called with cmd->sess after percpu_ida_free() has
already released the tag.

Fix this bug by saving the ft_sess pointer ahead of percpu_ida_free(),
and pass it directly to ft_sess_put().

The regression was originally introduced in v3.13-rc1 commit:

This patch series provides the ability for cgroup subsystems to be
compiled as modules both within and outside the kernel tree.  This is
mainly useful for classifiers and subsystems that hook into components
that are already modules.  cls_cgroup and blkio-cgroup serve as the
example use cases for this feature.

It provides an interface cgroup_load_subsys() and cgroup_unload_subsys()
which modular subsystems can use to register and depart during runtime.
The net_cls classifier subsystem serves as the example for a subsystem
which can be converted into a module using these changes.

Patch #1 sets up the subsys[] array so its contents can be dynamic as
modules appear and (eventually) disappear.  Iterations over the array are
modified to handle when subsystems are absent, and the dynamic section of
the array is protected by cgroup_mutex.

Patch #2 implements an interface for modules to load subsystems, called
cgroup_load_subsys, similar to cgroup_init_subsys, and adds a module
pointer in struct cgroup_subsys.

Patch #3 adds a mechanism for unloading modular subsystems, which includes
a more advanced rework of the rudimentary reference counting introduced in
patch 2.

Patch #4 modifies the net_cls subsystem, which already had some module
declarations, to be configurable as a module, which also serves as a
simple proof-of-concept.

Part of implementing patches 2 and 4 involved updating css pointers in
each css_set when the module appears or leaves.  In doing this, it was
discovered that css_sets always remain linked to the dummy cgroup,
regardless of whether or not any subsystems are actually bound to it
(i.e., not mounted on an actual hierarchy).  The subsystem loading and
unloading code therefore should keep in mind the special cases where the
added subsystem is the only one in the dummy cgroup (and therefore all
css_sets need to be linked back into it) and where the removed subsys was
the only one in the dummy cgroup (and therefore all css_sets should be
unlinked from it) - however, as all css_sets always stay attached to the
dummy cgroup anyway, these cases are ignored.  Any fix that addresses this
issue should also make sure these cases are addressed in the subsystem
loading and unloading code.

This patch:

Make subsys[] able to be dynamically populated to support modular
subsystems

This patch reworks the way the subsys[] array is used so that subsystems
can register themselves after boot time, and enables the internals of
cgroups to be able to handle when subsystems are not present or may
appear/disappear.

dump_tasks() needs to hold the RCU read lock around its access of the
target task's UID.  To this end it should use task_uid() as it only needs
that one thing from the creds.

The fact that dump_tasks() holds tasklist_lock is insufficient to prevent the
target process replacing its credentials on another CPU.

Then, this patch change to call rcu_read_lock() explicitly.

This patch series provides the ability for cgroup subsystems to be
compiled as modules both within and outside the kernel tree.  This is
mainly useful for classifiers and subsystems that hook into components
that are already modules.  cls_cgroup and blkio-cgroup serve as the
example use cases for this feature.

It provides an interface cgroup_load_subsys() and cgroup_unload_subsys()
which modular subsystems can use to register and depart during runtime.
The net_cls classifier subsystem serves as the example for a subsystem
which can be converted into a module using these changes.

Patch Quarx2k#1 sets up the subsys[] array so its contents can be dynamic as
modules appear and (eventually) disappear.  Iterations over the array are
modified to handle when subsystems are absent, and the dynamic section of
the array is protected by cgroup_mutex.

Patch Quarx2k#2 implements an interface for modules to load subsystems, called
cgroup_load_subsys, similar to cgroup_init_subsys, and adds a module
pointer in struct cgroup_subsys.

Patch Quarx2k#3 adds a mechanism for unloading modular subsystems, which includes
a more advanced rework of the rudimentary reference counting introduced in
patch 2.

Patch Quarx2k#4 modifies the net_cls subsystem, which already had some module
declarations, to be configurable as a module, which also serves as a
simple proof-of-concept.

Part of implementing patches 2 and 4 involved updating css pointers in
each css_set when the module appears or leaves.  In doing this, it was
discovered that css_sets always remain linked to the dummy cgroup,
regardless of whether or not any subsystems are actually bound to it
(i.e., not mounted on an actual hierarchy).  The subsystem loading and
unloading code therefore should keep in mind the special cases where the
added subsystem is the only one in the dummy cgroup (and therefore all
css_sets need to be linked back into it) and where the removed subsys was
the only one in the dummy cgroup (and therefore all css_sets should be
unlinked from it) - however, as all css_sets always stay attached to the
dummy cgroup anyway, these cases are ignored.  Any fix that addresses this
issue should also make sure these cases are addressed in the subsystem
loading and unloading code.

This patch:

Make subsys[] able to be dynamically populated to support modular
subsystems

This patch reworks the way the subsys[] array is used so that subsystems
can register themselves after boot time, and enables the internals of
cgroups to be able to handle when subsystems are not present or may
appear/disappear.
