There is some confusion about the meaning of 'bufsz' for a sunrpc server. In some cases it is the largest message that can be sent or received. In other cases it is the largest 'payload' that can be included in a NFS message. In either case, it is not possible for both the request and the reply to be this large. One of the request or reply may only be one page long, which fits nicely with NFS. So we remove 'bufsz' and replace it with two numbers: 'max_payload' and 'max_mesg'. Max_payload is the size that the server requests. It is used by the server to check the max size allowed on a particular connection: depending on the protocol a lower limit might be used. max_mesg is the largest single message that can be sent or received. It is calculated as the max_payload, rounded up to a multiple of PAGE_SIZE, and with PAGE_SIZE added to overhead. Only one of the request and reply may be this size. The other must be at most one page. Cc: Greg Banks <gnb@sgi.com> Cc: "J.

This fixes a bug introduced in 2.6.18. If a drive is added to a raid1 using older tools (mdadm-1.x or raidtools) then it will be included in the array without any resync happening.

The recent header cleanup removed PAGE_SIZE from the exported information as it depends on the configuration. BTW This has possibly other consequences, as the core dump code is using PAGE_SIZE directly, which may need fixing as well.

Add a way for a no_page() handler to request a retry of the faulting instruction. It goes back to userland on page faults and just tries again in get_user_pages(). I added a cond_resched() in the loop in that later case. The problem I have with signal and spufs is an actual bug affecting apps and I don't see other ways of fixing it. In addition, we are having issues with infiniband and 64k pages (related to the way the hypervisor deals with some HV cards) that will require us to muck around with the MMU from within the IB driver's no_page() (it's a pSeries specific driver) and return to the caller the same way using NOPAGE_REFAULT. And to add to this, the graphics folks have been following a new approach of memory management that involves transparently swapping objects between video ram and main meory. To do that, they need installing PTEs from a no_page() handler as well and that also requires returning with NOPAGE_REFAULT. (For the later, they are currently using io_remap_pfn_range to install one PTE from no_page() which is a bit racy, we need to add a check for the PTE having already been installed afer taking the lock, but that's ok, they are only at the proof-of-concept stage. I'll send a patch adding a "clean" function to do that, we can use that from spufs too and get rid of the sparsemem hacks we do to create struct page for SPEs. Basically, that provides a generic solution for being able to have no_page() map hardware devices, which is something that I think sound driver folks have been asking for some time too). All of these things depend on having the NOPAGE_REFAULT exit path from no_page() handlers.

Tim and Ananiev report that the recent WARN_ON_ONCE changes cause increased cache misses with the tbench workload. Apparently due to the access to the newly-added static variable. Rearrange the code so that we don't touch that variable unless the warning is going to trigger. Also rework the logic so that the static variable starts out at zero, so we can move it into bss. It would seem logical to mark the static variable as __read_mostly too. But it would be wrong, because that would put it back into the vmlinux image, and the kernel will never read from this variable in normal operation anyway. Unless the compiler or hardware go and do some prefetching on us? For some reason this patch shrinks softirq.o text by 40 bytes.

This reverts an earlier patch that was found to cause FPU state corruption. I think the corruption happens because unlazy_fpu() can cause FPU exceptions and when it happens after the current switch some processing would affect the state in the wrong process.

Always make sure RIP/EIP is 0 in the registers stored on the top of the stack of a kernel thread. This makes sure the unwinder code won't try a fallback but knows the stack has ended. AK: this patch is a bit mysterious. in theory they should be terminated anyways, but it seems to fix at least one crash. Anyways double termination probably doesn't hurt.
