3e0b5f0d7c firewire: cdev: address handler input validation
Like before my commit 1415d9189e,
fw_core_add_address_handler() does not align the address region now.
Instead the caller is required to pass valid parameters.

Since one of the callers of fw_core_add_address_handler() is the cdev
userspace interface, we now check for valid input.  If the client is
buggy, we give it a hint with -EINVAL.

45ee3199eb firewire: cdev: use an idr rather than a linked list for resources
The current code uses a linked list and a counter for storing
resources and the corresponding handle numbers.  By changing to an idr
we can be safe from counter wrap-around giving two resources the same
handle.

Furthermore, the deallocation ioctls now check whether the resource to
be freed is of the intended type.

Signed-off-by: Jay Fenlason <fenlason@redhat.com>

Some rework by Stefan R:
  - The idr API documentation says we get an ID within 0...0x7fffffff.
    Hence we can rest assured that idr handles fit into cdev handles.
  - Fix some races.  Add a client->in_shutdown flag for this purpose.
  - Add allocation retry to add_client_resource().
  - It is possible to use idr_for_each() in fw_device_op_release().
  - Fix ioctl_send_response() regression.
  - Small style changes.

1f3125af8e firewire: cdev: tcodes input validation
The behaviour of fw-transaction.c::fw_send_request is ill-defined for
any other tcodes than read/ write/ lock request tcodes.  Therefore
prevent requests with wrong tcodes from entering the transaction layer.

Maybe fw_send_request should check them itself, but I am not inclined to
change it and fw_fill_request from void-valued functions to ones which
return error codes and pass those up.  Besides, maybe fw_send_request is
going to support one more tcode than ioctl_send_request in the future
(TCODE_STREAM_DATA).

cf417e5494 firewire: add a client_list_lock
This adds a client_list_lock, which only protects the device's
client_list, so that future versions of the driver can call code that
takes the card->lock while holding the client_list_lock.  Adding this
lock is much simpler than adding __ versions of all the functions that
the future version may need.  The one ordering issue is to make sure
code never takes the client_list_lock with card->lock held.  Since
client_list_lock is only used in three places, that isn't hard.

1aa292bb1c firewire: Include iso timestamp in headers when header_size > 4
Previously, when an iso context had header_size > 4, the iso header
(len/tag/channel/tcode/sy) was passed to userspace followed by quadlets
stripped from the payload.  This patch changes the behavior:
header_size = 8 now passes the header quadlet followed by the timestamp
quadlet.  When header_size > 8, quadlets are stripped from the payload.
The header_size = 4 case remains identical.

Since this alters the semantics of the API, the firewire API version
needs to be bumped concurrently with this change.

This change also refactors the header copying code slightly to be much
easier to read.

Currently it doesn't matter where the mdio nodes are placed, but with

125a00d74e powerpc/83xx: Add power management support for MPC837x boards
This patch adds pmc nodes to the device tree files so that the boards
will able to use standby capability of MPC837x processors. The MPC837x
PMC controllers are compatible with MPC8349 ones (i.e. no deep sleep).

sleep = <> properties are used to specify SCCR masks as described
in "Specifying Device Power Management Information (sleep property)"
chapter in Documentation/powerpc/booting-without-of.txt.

Since I2C1 and eSDHC controllers share the same clock source, they
are now placed under sleep-nexus nodes.

A processor is able to wakeup the boards on LAN events (Wake-On-Lan),
console events (with no_console_suspend kernel command line), GPIO
events and external IRQs (IRQ1 and IRQ2).

The processor can also wakeup the boards by the fourth general purpose
timer in GTM1 block, but the GTM wakeup support isn't yet implemented
(it's tested to work, but it's unclear how can we use the quite short
GTM timers, and how do we want to expose the GTM to userspace).

1d45209d89 netfilter: nf_conntrack: Reduce conntrack count in nf_conntrack_free()
We use RCU to defer freeing of conntrack structures. In DOS situation, RCU might
accumulate about 10.000 elements per CPU in its internal queues. To get accurate
conntrack counts (at the expense of slightly more RAM used), we might consider
conntrack counter not taking into account "about to be freed elements, waiting
in RCU queues". We thus decrement it in nf_conntrack_free(), not in the RCU
callback.

05378940ca bsg: add support for tail queuing
Currently inherited from sg.c bsg will submit asynchronous request
 at the head-of-the-queue, (using "at_head" set in the call to
 blk_execute_rq_nowait()). This is bad in situation where the queues
 are full, requests will execute out of order, and can cause
 starvation of the first submitted requests.

The sg_io_v4->flags member is used and a bit is allocated to denote the
Q_AT_TAIL. Zero is to queue at_head as before, to be compatible with old
code at the write/read path. SG_IO code path behavior was changed so to
be the same as write/read behavior. SG_IO was very rarely used and breaking
compatibility with it is OK at this stage.

sg_io_hdr at sg.h also has a flags member and uses 3 bits from the first
nibble and one bit from the last nibble. Even though none of these bits
are supported by bsg, The second nibble is allocated for use by bsg. Just
in case.

this warning (which got fixed by commit b2bf968):

  fs/bio.c: In function ‘bio_alloc_bioset’:
  fs/bio.c:305: warning: ‘p’ may be used uninitialized in this function

Triggered because the code flow in bio_alloc_bioset() is correct
but a bit complex for the compiler to see through.

Streamline it a bit - this also makes the code a tiny bit more compact:

it's not needed.

02ffad08e8 GFS2: Fix locking bug in failed shared to exclusive conversion
After calling out to the dlm, GFS2 sets the new state of a glock to
gl_target in gdlm_ast().  However, gl_target is not always the lock
state that was requested. If a conversion from shared to exclusive
fails, finish_xmote() will call do_xmote() with LM_ST_UNLOCKED, instead
of gl->gl_target, so that it can reacquire the lock in exlusive the next
time around.  In this case, setting the lock to gl_target in gdlm_ast()
will make GFS2 think that it has the glock in exclusive mode, when
really, it doesn't have the glock locked at all.  This patch adds a new
field to the gfs2_glock structure, gl_req, to track the mode that was
requested.

229615def3 GFS2: Pagecache usage optimization on GFS2
I introduced "is_partially_uptodate" aops for GFS2.

A page can have multiple buffers and even if a page is not uptodate, some buffers
can be uptodate on pagesize != blocksize environment.
This aops checks that all buffers which correspond to a part of a file
that we want to read are uptodate. If so, we do not have to issue actual
read IO to HDD even if a page is not uptodate because the portion we
want to read are uptodate.
"block_is_partially_uptodate" function is already used by ext2/3/4.
With the following patch random read/write mixed workloads or random read after
random write workloads can be optimized and we can get performance improvement.

I did a performance test using the sysbench.

223b2b889f GFS2: Fix alignment issue and tidy gfs2_bitfit
An alignment issue with the existing bitfit algorithm was reported
on IA64. This patch attempts to fix that, and also to tidy up the
code a bit. There is now more documentation about how this works
and it has survived a number of different tests.

64d576ba23 GFS2: Add a "demote a glock" interface to sysfs
This adds a sysfs file called demote_rq to GFS2's
per filesystem directory. Its possible to use this
file to demote arbitrary glocks in exactly the same
way as if a request had come in from a remote node.

This is intended for testing issues relating to caching
of data under glocks. Despite that, the interface is
generic enough to send requests to any type of glock,
but be careful as its not always safe to send an
arbitrary message to an arbitrary glock. For that reason
and to prevent DoS, this interface is restricted to root
only.

The messages look like this:

<type>:<glocknumber> <mode>

Example:

echo -n "2:13324 EX" >/sys/fs/gfs2/unity:myfs/demote_rq

Which means "please demote inode glock (type 2) number 13324 so that
I can get an EX (exclusive) lock". The lock modes are those which
would normally be sent by a remote node in its callback so if you
want to unlock a glock, you use EX, to demote to shared, use SH or PR
(depending on whether you like GFS2 or DLM lock modes better!).

If the glock doesn't exist, you'll get -ENOENT returned. If the
arguments don't make sense, you'll get -EINVAL returned.

The plan is that this interface will be used in combination with
the blktrace patch which I recently posted for comments although
it is, of course, still useful in its own right.

02e3cc70ec GFS2: Expose UUID via sysfs/uevent
Since we have a UUID, we ought to expose it to the user via sysfs
and uevents. We already have the fs name in both of these places
(a combination of the lock proto and lock table name) so if we add
the UUID as well, we have a full set.

For older filesystems (i.e. those created before mkfs.gfs2 was writing
UUIDs by default) the sysfs file will appear zero length, and no UUID
env var will be added to the uevents.

f15ab5619d GFS2: Support generation of discard requests
This patch allows GFS2 to generate discard requests for blocks which are
no longer useful to the filesystem (i.e. those which have been freed as
the result of an unlink operation). The requests are generated at the
time which those blocks become available for reuse in the filesystem.

In order to use this new feature, you have to specify the "discard"
mount option. The code coalesces adjacent blocks into a single extent
when generating the discard requests, thus generating the minimum
number.

If an error occurs when the request has been sent to the block device,
then it will print a message and turn off the requests for that
filesystem. If the problem is temporary, then you can use remount to
turn the option back on again. There is also a nodiscard mount option
so that you can use remount to turn discard requests off, if required.

d8348de06f GFS2: Fix deadlock on journal flush
This patch fixes a deadlock when the journal is flushed and there
are dirty inodes other than the one which caused the journal flush.
Originally the journal flushing code was trying to obtain the
transaction glock while running the flush code for an inode glock.
We no longer require the transaction glock at this point in time
since we know that any attempt to get the transaction glock from
another node will result in a journal flush. So if we are flushing
the journal, we can be sure that the transaction lock is still
cached from when the transaction was started.

By inlining a version of gfs2_trans_begin() (minus the bit which
gets the transaction glock) we can avoid the deadlock problems
caused if there is a demote request queued up on the transaction
glock.

In addition I've also moved the umount rwsem so that it covers
the glock workqueue, since it all demotions are done by this
workqueue now. That fixes a bug on umount which I came across
while fixing the original problem.

f057f6cdf6 GFS2: Merge lock_dlm module into GFS2
This is the big patch that I've been working on for some time
now. There are many reasons for wanting to make this change
such as:
 o Reducing overhead by eliminating duplicated fields between structures
 o Simplifcation of the code (reduces the code size by a fair bit)
 o The locking interface is now the DLM interface itself as proposed
   some time ago.
 o Fewer lookups of glocks when processing replies from the DLM
 o Fewer memory allocations/deallocations for each glock
 o Scope to do further optimisations in the future (but this patch is
   more than big enough for now!)

Please note that (a) this patch relates to the lock_dlm module and
not the DLM itself, that is still a separate module; and (b) that
we retain the ability to build GFS2 as a standalone single node
filesystem with out requiring the DLM.

This patch needs a lot of testing, hence my keeping it I restarted
my -git tree after the last merge window. That way, this has the maximum
exposure before its merged. This is (modulo a few minor bug fixes) the
same patch that I've been posting on and off the the last three months
and its passed a number of different tests so far.
