      powerpc/powernv/pci-ioda: fix 32-bit TCE table init in kdump kernel · bb005455
      Nishanth Aravamudan authored
      When attempting to kdump with the 4.2 kernel, we see for each PCI
      device:
      
       pci 0003:01     : [PE# 000] Assign DMA32 space
       pci 0003:01     : [PE# 000] Setting up 32-bit TCE table at 0..80000000
       pci 0003:01     : [PE# 000] Failed to create 32-bit TCE table, err -22
       PCI: Domain 0004 has 8 available 32-bit DMA segments
       PCI: 4 PE# for a total weight of 70

       pci 0004:01     : [PE# 002] Setting up 32-bit TCE table at 0..80000000
       pci 0004:01     : [PE# 002] Failed to create 32-bit TCE table, err -22
       pci 0004:0d     : [PE# 005] Assign DMA32 space

       pci 0004:0d     : [PE# 005] Failed to create 32-bit TCE table, err -22

       pci 0004:0e     : [PE# 006] Failed to create 32-bit TCE table, err -22
       pci 0004:10     : [PE# 008] Assign DMA32 space
       pci 0004:10     : [PE# 008] Setting up 32-bit TCE table at 0..80000000

      and eventually the kdump kernel fails to boot as none of the PCI devices
      (including the disk controller) are successfully initialized.
      
      The EINVAL response is because the DMA window (the 2GB base window) is
      larger than the kdump kernel's reserved memory (crashkernel=, in this
      case specified to be 1024M). The check in question,
      
       if ((window_size > memory_hotplug_max()) || !is_power_of_2(window_size))
      
      is a valid sanity check for pnv_pci_ioda2_table_alloc_pages(), so adjust
      the caller to pass in a smaller window size if our maximum memory value
      is smaller than the DMA window.
      
      After this change, the PCI devices successfully set up the 32-bit TCE
      table and kdump succeeds.
      
      The problem was seen on a Firestone machine originally.

      task_work: remove fifo ordering guarantee · c8219906
      Eric Dumazet authored
      In commit f341861f ("task_work: add a scheduling point in
      task_work_run()") I fixed a latency problem adding a cond_resched()
      call.
      
      Later, commit ac3d0da8 added yet another loop to reverse a list,
      bringing back the latency spike :
      
      I've seen in some cases this loop taking 275 ms, if for example a
      process with 2,000,000 files is killed.
      
      We could add yet another cond_resched() in the reverse loop, or we
      can simply remove the reversal, as I do not think anything
      would depend on order of task_work_add() submitted works.
