[PATCH] i386: port ATI timer fix from x86_64 to i386 II

ATI chipsets tend to generate double timer interrupts for the local APIC
timer when both the 8254 and the IO-APIC timer pins are enabled.  This is
because they route it to both and the result is anded together and the CPU
ends up processing it twice.

This patch changes check_timer to disable the 8254 routing for interrupt 0.

I think it would be safe on all chipsets actually (i tested it on a couple
and it worked everywhere) and Windows seems to do it in a similar way, but
to be conservative this patch only enables this mode on ATI (and adds
options to enable/disable too)

Ported over from a similar x86-64 change.

I reused the ACPI earlyquirk infrastructure for the ATI bridge check, but
tweaked it a bit to work even without ACPI.

Inspired by a patch from Chuck Ebbert, but redone.

[PATCH] fix file counting

I have benchmarked this on an x86_64 NUMA system and see no significant
performance difference on kernbench.  Tested on both x86_64 and powerpc.

The way we do file struct accounting is not very suitable for batched
freeing.  For scalability reasons, file accounting was
constructor/destructor based.  This meant that nr_files was decremented
only when the object was removed from the slab cache.  This is susceptible
to slab fragmentation.  With RCU based file structure, consequent batched
freeing and a test program like Serge's, we just speed this up and end up
with a very fragmented slab -

llm22:~ # cat /proc/sys/fs/file-nr
587730  0       758844

At the same time, I see only a 2000+ objects in filp cache.  The following
patch I fixes this problem.

This patch changes the file counting by removing the filp_count_lock.
Instead we use a separate percpu counter, nr_files, for now and all
accesses to it are through get_nr_files() api.  In the sysctl handler for
nr_files, we populate files_stat.nr_files before returning to user.

Counting files as an when they are created and destroyed (as opposed to
inside slab) allows us to correctly count open files with RCU.

[PATCH] rcu batch tuning

This patch adds new tunables for RCU queue and finished batches.  There are
two types of controls - number of completed RCU updates invoked in a batch
(blimit) and monitoring for high rate of incoming RCUs on a cpu (qhimark,
qlowmark).

By default, the per-cpu batch limit is set to a small value.  If the input
RCU rate exceeds the high watermark, we do two things - force quiescent
state on all cpus and set the batch limit of the CPU to INTMAX.  Setting
batch limit to INTMAX forces all finished RCUs to be processed in one shot.
 If we have more than INTMAX RCUs queued up, then we have bigger problems
anyway.  Once the incoming queued RCUs fall below the low watermark, the
batch limit is set to the default.

Paul Mackerras [Wed, 8 Mar 2006 02:24:22 +0000 (13:24 +1100)]
powerpc: Fix various syscall/signal/swapcontext bugs

A careful reading of the recent changes to the system call entry/exit
paths revealed several problems, plus some things that could be
simplified and improved:

* 32-bit wasn't testing the _TIF_NOERROR bit in the syscall fast exit
  path, so it was only doing anything with it once it saw some other
  bit being set.  In other words, the noerror behaviour would apply to
  the next system call where we had to reschedule or deliver a signal,
  which is not necessarily the current system call.

* 32-bit wasn't doing the call to ptrace_notify in the syscall exit
  path when the _TIF_SINGLESTEP bit was set.

* _TIF_RESTOREALL was in both _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK and
  _TIF_PERSYSCALL_MASK, which is odd since _TIF_RESTOREALL is only set
  by system calls.  I took it out of _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK.

* On 64-bit, _TIF_RESTOREALL wasn't causing the non-volatile registers
  to be restored (unless perhaps a signal was delivered or the syscall
  was traced or single-stepped).  Thus the non-volatile registers
  weren't restored on exit from a signal handler.  We probably got
  away with it mostly because signal handlers written in C wouldn't
  alter the non-volatile registers.

* On 32-bit I simplified the code and made it more like 64-bit by
  making the syscall exit path jump to ret_from_except to handle
  preemption and signal delivery.

* 32-bit was calling do_signal unnecessarily when _TIF_RESTOREALL was
  set - but I think because of that 32-bit was actually restoring the
  non-volatile registers on exit from a signal handler.

* I changed the order of enabling interrupts and saving the
  non-volatile registers before calling do_syscall_trace_leave; now we
  enable interrupts first.

    simply related to the ordering in parport_serial_pci_tbl[]. If we move
    the 9845 up above the 9735, it prints out 9710:9845, but no change in
    behaviour. (We didn't find out why this was the case; we left it alone
    since it didn't affect our problem.)
  - The card has no parallel port (at least no physical ones), yet it reports
    (via its subsystem ID of 0x0014) one parallel port and four serial ports.
    The probe for the parallel port fails, and the driver just aborts. Thus,
    it doesn't find the serial ports.

Fix the debugging code to use dev_dbg, but don't bother displaying the
PCI ID of the detected board (that's accessible via other means.)

[BRIDGE]: fix crash in STP

Bridge would crash because of uninitailized timer if STP is used and
device was inserted into a bridge before bridge was up. This got
introduced when the delayed port checking was added.  Fix is to not
enable STP on port unless bridge is up.

18 years ago[CIFS] Always match oplock break (cache notification) to the right tcp
Steve French [Sun, 5 Mar 2006 03:39:55 +0000 (03:39 +0000)]
[CIFS] Always match oplock break (cache notification) to the right tcp
session when multiply mounted.

Fixes slow response when cifs client is mounted to shares on multiple
servers and oplock break occurs (usually due to attempt to multiply open a
file).  When treeids on mutiple mounted shares match and we find the wrong
match first, we searched for the wrong cached files to send oplock break
response for which usually meant that no matching file was found and thus
the server would have to timeout the notification.  Oplock break timeout is
about 20 seconds on some servers so this could cause significantly slower
performance on file open calls in a few cases (in particular when multiple
shares are mounted from multiple servers, tree ids match, and we have a
cached file which is later opened multiple times).  This was the most
important of the bugs that was found and fixed at Connectathon
(interoperability testing event) this week.
