Not only is linear aligned supposedly more performant, linear general is only supported by the CB in single slice mode. The texture hardware doesn't support linear general, but I think the hw automatically upgrades it to linear aligned.

My evergreen has been in a remote PC for week and reset has never once saved me from certain doom, I finally relocated to the box with a serial cable and noticed an oops when the GPU resets, and the TTM delayed delete thread tries to remove something from the GTT. This stops the delayed delete thread from executing across the GPU reset handler, and woot I can GPU reset now. Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>

The colorbuffer, zbuffer, and texture states are checked only once when they get changed. This improves performance in the apps which emit lots of draw packets and few state changes. This drops performance in glxgears by a 1% or so, but glxgears is not a benchmark we care about. The time spent in the kernel when running Torcs dropped from 33% to 23% and the frame rate is higher, which is a good thing. r600 might need something like this as well.

drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/mkregtable.c:parser_auth() almost always remembers to fclose(file) before returning, but it misses two spots. This is not really important since the process will exit shortly after and thus close the file for us, but being explicit prevents static analysis tools from complaining about leaked memory and missing fclose() calls and it also seems to be the prefered style of the existing code to explicitly close the file. So, here's a patch to add the two missing fclose() calls. Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <jj@chaosbits.net> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>

This reverts commit 47970b1b. It turns out it breaks several distributions. Looks like the stricter selinux checks fail due to selinux policies not being set to allow the access - breaking X, but also lspci. So while the change was clearly the RightThing(tm) to do in theory, in practice we have backwards compatibility issues making it not work.

On an SMP ARM system running ext4, I've received a report that the first J_ASSERT in jbd2_journal_commit_transaction has been triggering: J_ASSERT(journal->j_running_transaction != NULL); While investigating possible causes for this problem, I noticed that __jbd2_log_start_commit() is getting called with j_state_lock only read-locked, in spite of the fact that it's possible for it might j_commit_request. Fix this by grabbing the necessary information so we can test to see if we need to start a new transaction before dropping the read lock, and then calling jbd2_log_start_commit() which will grab the write lock.

ext4 has a data corruption case when doing non-block-aligned asynchronous direct IO into a sparse file, as demonstrated by xfstest 240. The root cause is that while ext4 preallocates space in the hole, mappings of that space still look "new" and dio_zero_block() will zero out the unwritten portions. When more than one AIO thread is going, they both find this "new" block and race to zero out their portion; this is uncoordinated and causes data corruption. Dave Chinner fixed this for xfs by simply serializing all unaligned asynchronous direct IO. I've done the same here. The difference is that we only wait on conversions, not all IO. This is a very big hammer, and I'm not very pleased with stuffing this into ext4_file_write(). But since ext4 is DIO_LOCKING, we need to serialize it at this high level. I tried to move this into ext4_ext_direct_IO, but by then we have the i_mutex already, and we will wait on the work queue to do conversions - which must also take the i_mutex. So that won't work. This was originally exposed by qemu-kvm installing to a raw disk image with a normal sector-63 alignment. I've tested a backport of this patch with qemu, and it does avoid the corruption. It is also quite a lot slower (14 min for package installs, vs. 8 min for well-aligned) but I'll take slow correctness over fast corruption any day. Mingming suggested that we can track outstanding conversions, and wait on those so that non-sparse files won't be affected, and I've implemented that here; unaligned AIO to nonsparse files won't take a perf hit.

In 2.6.37 I was running into oopses with repeated module loads & unloads. I tracked this down to: fb1813f4 ext4: use dedicated slab caches for group_info structures (this was in addition to the features advert unload problem) The kstrdup & subsequent kfree of the cache name was causing a double free. In slub, at least, if I read it right it allocates & frees the name itself, slab seems to do something different... so in slub I think we were leaking -our- cachep->name, and double freeing the one allocated by slub. After getting lost in slab/slub/slob a bit, I just looked at other sized-caches that get allocated. jbd2, biovec, sgpool all do it more or less the way jbd2 does. Below patch follows the jbd2 method of dynamically allocating a cache at mount time from a list of static names. (This might also possibly fix a race creating the caches with parallel mounts running).

This code makes two calls to clk_get, then test both return values and fails if either failed. The problem is that in the first inner if, where the first call to clk_get has failed, it don't know if the second call has failed as well. So it don't know whether clk_get should be called on the result of the second call. Of course, it would be possible to test that value again. A simpler solution is just to test the result of calling clk_get directly after each call. The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @r@ position p1,p2; expression e; statement S; @@ e = clk_get@p1(...) ... if@p2 (IS_ERR(e)) S @@ expression e; statement S; identifier l; position r.p1, p2 != r.p2; @@ *e = clk_get@p1(...) ... when != clk_put(e) *if@p2 (...) { ... when != clk_put(e) * return ...; }// </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Cc: Evgeniy Polyakov <johnpol@2ka.mipt.ru> Acked-by: Tony Lindgren <tony@atomide.com> Acked-by: Amit Kucheria <amit.kucheria@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Commit 3e7d3449 ("mm: vmscan: reclaim order-0 and use compaction instead of lumpy reclaim") introduced an indefinite loop in shrink_zone(). It meant to break out of this loop when no pages had been reclaimed and not a single page was even scanned. The way it would detect the latter is by taking a snapshot of sc->nr_scanned at the beginning of the function and comparing it against the new sc->nr_scanned after the scan loop. But it would re-iterate without updating that snapshot, looping forever if sc->nr_scanned changed at least once since shrink_zone() was invoked. This is not the sole condition that would exit that loop, but it requires other processes to change the zone state, as the reclaimer that is stuck obviously can not anymore. This is only happening for higher-order allocations, where reclaim is run back to back with compaction.

If the page is going to be written to, __do_page needs to break COW. However, the old page (before breaking COW) was never mapped mapped into the current pte (__do_fault is only called when the pte is not present), so vmscan can't have marked the old page as PageMlocked due to being mapped in __do_fault's VMA. Therefore, __do_fault() does not need to worry about clearing PageMlocked() on the old page.

vmscan can lazily find pages that are mapped within VM_LOCKED vmas, and set the PageMlocked bit on these pages, transfering them onto the unevictable list. When do_wp_page() breaks COW within a VM_LOCKED vma, it may need to clear PageMlocked on the old page and set it on the new page instead. This change fixes an issue where do_wp_page() was clearing PageMlocked on the old page while the pte was still pointing to it (as well as rmap). Therefore, we were not protected against vmscan immediately transfering the old page back onto the unevictable list. This could cause pages to get stranded there forever. I propose to move the corresponding code to the end of do_wp_page(), after the pte (and rmap) have been pointed to the new page. Additionally, we can use munlock_vma_page() instead of clear_page_mlock(), so that the old page stays mlocked if there are still other VM_LOCKED vmas mapping it.

However, that other ioctl blocks, waiting for the module-level mutex that replaced the BKL, and then we're stuck. This patch removes the module-level mutex altogether. It's clearly wrong, and as far as I can see, it's entirely unnecessary, since the nbd driver maintains per-device mutexes, and I don't see anything that would require a module-level (or kernel-level, for that matter) mutex.
