698b18c1e8 md: raid1: Fix restoration of bio between failed read and write.
When performing a "recovery" or "check" pass on a RAID1 array, we read
from each device and possible, if there is a difference or a read error,
write back to some devices.

We use the same 'bio' for both read and write, resetting various fields
between the two operations.

We forgot to reset bv_offset and bv_len however.  These are often left
unchanged, but in the case where there is an IO error one or two sectors
into a page, they are changed.

This results in correctable errors not being corrected properly.  It does
not result in any data corruption.

6be9d49401 md: md: raid5 rate limit error printk
Last night we had scsi problems and a hardware raid unit was offlined
during heavy i/o.  While this happened we got for about 3 minutes a huge
number messages like these

Apr 12 03:36:07 pfs1n14 kernel: [197510.696595] raid5:md7: read error not correctable (sector 2993096568 on sdj2).

I guess the high error rate is responsible for not scheduling other events
- during this time the system was not pingable and in the end also other
devices run into scsi command timeouts causing problems on these unrelated
devices as well.

84255d1018 md: fix possible oops when removing a bitmap from an active array
It is possible to add a write-intent bitmap to an active array, or remove
the bitmap that is there.

When we do with the 'quiesce' the array, which causes make_request to
block in "wait_barrier()".

However we are sampling the value of "mddev->bitmap" before the
wait_barrier call, and using it afterwards.  This can result in using a
bitmap structure that has been freed.

03fb0bce01 fuse: fix bdi naming conflict
Fuse allocates a separate bdi for each filesystem, and registers them
in sysfs with "MAJOR:MINOR" of sb->s_dev (st_dev).  This works fine for
anon devices normally used by fuse, but can conflict with an already
registered BDI for "fuseblk" filesystems, where sb->s_dev represents a
real block device.  In particularl this happens if a non-partitioned
device is being mounted.

Fix by registering with a different name for "fuseblk" filesystems.

Thanks to Ioan Ionita for the bug report.

Author: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de>
Date:   Tue Mar 18 14:32:28 2008 +0100

    [SCSI] add scsi_host and scsi_target to scsi_bus

which added scsi_bus_type to the struct scsi_target device.  This
causes both the scsi_device and scsi_target to fire scsi_bus_uevents.
However, the actualy scsi_bus_uevent() call assumes blindly that it's
a struct scsi_device.  Check for this and return immediately if it
isn't.

677aa9f77e ftrace: add have dynamic ftrace config for archs
Now that ftrace is being ported to other architectures, it has become
apparent that DYNAMIC_FTRACE is dependent on whether or not that
architecture implements dynamic ftrace. FTRACE itself may be ported to
an architecture without porting dynamic ftrace.

This patch adds HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE to allow architectures to port ftrace
without having to also port the dynamic aspect as well.

656ee82cc8 kbuild: create new CFLAGS_REMOVE_(basename).o option
We currently have a way to add special CFLAGS to code, but we do not have a
way to remove them if needed.

With the case of ftrace, some files should simply not be profiled. Adding
the -pg flag to these files is simply a waste, and adding "notrace" to each
and every function is ugly.

Currently we put in "Makefile turd" [1] to stop the compiler from adding -pg
to certain files. This was clumsy and awkward.

This patch now adds the revese of CFLAGS_(basename).o with
CFLAGS_REMOVE_(basename).o.  This allows developers to prevent certain
CFLAGS from being used to compile files. For example, we can now do

CFLAGS_REMOVE_string.o = -pg

to remove the -pg option from the string.o file in the lib directory.

Note: a space delimited list of options may be added to the REMOVE macro.

[1] - what David Miller called the workaronud to remove -pg

It causes unaligned access traps on platforms like sparc
(ftrace_page may be marked packed, but once we return
a dyn_ftrace sub-object from this array to another piece
of code, the "packed" part of the typing information doesn't
propagate).

But also, it didn't serve any purpose either.  Even if packed,
on 64-bit or 32-bit, it didn't give us any more dyn_ftrace
entries per-page.

Very good point. I actually thought about dropping it, since it would
remove an unnecessary argument from the stack. And actually, since I now
have the marker_probe_cb sitting between the marker site and the
callbacks, there is no API change required. Thanks :)

3eefae994d ftrace: limit trace entries
Currently there is no protection from the root user to use up all of
memory for trace buffers. If the root user allocates too many entries,
the OOM killer might start kill off all tasks.

This patch adds an algorith to check the following condition:

 pages_requested > (freeable_memory + current_trace_buffer_pages) / 4

If the above is met then the allocation fails. The above prevents more
than 1/4th of freeable memory from being used by trace buffers.

To determine the freeable_memory, I made determine_dirtyable_memory in
mm/page-writeback.c global.

Special thanks goes to Peter Zijlstra for suggesting the above calculation.

6c6c27969a ftrace: add readpos to struct trace_seq; add trace_seq_to_user()
Refactor code from tracing_read_pipe() and create trace_seq_to_user().
Moved trace_seq_reset() call before iter->trace->read() call so that
when all leftover data is returned, trace_seq is reset automatically.

2bb6f8d638 ftrace: use raw_smp_processor_id for mcount functions
Due to debug hooks in the kernel that can change the way smp_processor_id
works, use raw_smp_processor_id in mcount called functions (namely
ftrace_record_ip). Currently we annotate most debug functions from calling
mcount, but we should not rely on that to prevent kernel lockups.

This patch uses the raw_smp_processor_id to prevent a recusive crash
that can happen if a debug hook in smp_processor_id calls mcount.

4823ed7ead ftrace: fix setting of pos in read_pipe
In resetting the iterator in read_pipe, the reset of pos was
postitioned in the wrong location with respect to the memset
