The problem with vm86 is that the call to handle_vm86_trap() may jump straight to entry_32.S and never returns so preempt is never enabled again, and there is an imbalance in the preempt count. Commit be716615fe596ee117292dc615e95f707fb67fd1 ("x86, vm86: fix preemption bug"), which was later (accidentally?) reverted by commit 08d68323d1f0c34452e614263b212ca556dae47f ("hw-breakpoints: modifying generic debug exception to use thread-specific debug registers") fixed the problem for debug exceptions but not for breakpoints. There are three solutions to this problem. 1. Reenable preemption before calling handle_vm86_trap(). This was the approach that was later reverted. 2. Do not disable preemption for i386 in breakpoint and debug handlers. This was the situation before October 2008. As far as I understand preemption only needs to be disabled on x86_64 because a seperate stack is used, but it's nice to have things work the same way on i386 and x86_64. 3. Let handle_vm86_trap() return instead of jumping to assembly code. By setting a flag in _TIF_WORK_MASK, either TIF_IRET or TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME, the code in entry_32.S is instructed to return to 32 bit mode from V86 mode. The logic in entry_32.S was already present to handle signals. (I chose TIF_IRET because it's slightly more efficient in do_notify_resume() in signal.c, but in fact TIF_IRET can probably be replaced by TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME everywhere.) I'm submitting approach 3, because I believe it is the most elegant and prevents future confusion. Still, an obvious preempt_conditional_cli(regs); is necessary in traps.c to correct the bug. [ hpa: This is technically a regression, but because: 1. the regression is so old, 2. the patch seems relatively high risk, justifying more testing, and 3. we're late in the 2.6.36-rc cycle, I'm queuing it up for the 2.6.37 merge window. It might, however, justify as a -stable backport at a latter time, hence Cc: stable. ] Signed-off-by: Bart Oldeman <bartoldeman@users.sourceforge.net> LKML-Reference: <alpine.DEB.2.00.1009231312330.4732@localhost.localdomain> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: K.Prasad <prasad@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Cc: Alexander van Heukelum <heukelum@fastmail.fm> Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: H.

Currently it uses slow byte-copy code. This patch makes it use the string copy operations instead. In the test the copy performance can be improved very significantly after using the string copy operation mechanism. 1. The copy time can be reduced from 150ms to 20ms on one Atom machine 2. The copy time can be reduced about 80% on another machine The time is reduced from 7ms to 1.5ms when using 32-bit kernel. The time is reduced from 10ms to 2ms when using 64-bit kernel.

Fake NUMA would be better of with round-robin initialization, instead of the all CPUS on first node. Change the choice of first node, back to round-robin. For testing NUMA kernel behaviour without cpusets and NUMA aware applications, it would be better to have cpus in different nodes, rather than all in a single node. With cpusets migration of tasks scenarios cannot not be tested. I guess having it round-robin shouldn't affect the use cases for all cpus on the first node. The code comments in arch/x86/mm/numa_64.c:759 indicate that this used to be the case, which was changed by commit d9c2d5ac6. It changed from roundrobin to nearer or first node. And I couldn't find any reason for this change in its changelog.

Spaces, however, get inserted by cpp between any macro expanding to a number and a subsequent + or -. For the +, current x86 gas then removes the space again (future gas may not do so), but for the - the space gets retained and is then considered a separator between macro arguments. Fix the respective definitions for both the - and + cases, so that they neither contain spaces nor make cpp insert any (the latter by adding seemingly redundant parentheses).

Jiri Sladby points out that the tty structure we're using may already be gone, and Al Viro doesn't hold back in complaining about the random loading of 'filp->private_data' which doesn't have to be a pointer at all, nor does checking the magic field for TTY_MAGIC prove anything. Belated review by Al: "a) global variable depending on stdin of the last opener? Affecting output of read(2)? Really? b) iterator is broken; list should be locked in ->start(), unlocked in ->stop() and *NOT* unlocked/relocked in ->next() c) ->show() ought to do nothing in case of ->device == NULL, instead of skipping those in ->next()/->start() d) regardless of the merits of the bright idea about asterisk at that line in output *and* regardless of (a), the implementation is not only atrociously ugly, it's actually very likely to be a roothole. Verifying that Cthulhu knows what number happens to be address of a tty_struct by blindly dereferencing memory at that address... Ouch. Please revert that crap." And Christoph pipes in and NAK's the approach of walking fd tables etc too. So it's pretty unanimous.

To avoid access to unwritten blocks, the current implementation stores changes to the caches of GCDAT during GC and atomically commit the changes into the DAT file after they are written to the device. This patch, instead, adds a function that makes a copy of specified buffer and stores it in nilfs_shadow_map, and a function to get the backup copy as needed (nilfs_mdt_freeze_buffer and nilfs_mdt_get_frozen_buffer respectively). Before DAT changes block number in an entry block, it makes a copy and redirect access to the buffer so that address conversion function (i.e. nilfs_dat_translate) refers to the old address saved in the copy. This patch gives requisites for such redirection. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>

This enhancement is intended to displace gcdat inode that provides a similar function in a different way. In this patch, nilfs_shadow_map structure is added to store a copy of the foregoing states. nilfs_mdt_setup_shadow_map relates this structure to a metadata file. And, nilfs_mdt_save_to_shadow_map() and nilfs_mdt_restore_from_shadow_map() provides save and restore functions respectively. Finally, nilfs_mdt_clear_shadow_map() clears states of nilfs_shadow_map. The copy of b-tree node cache and page cache is made by duplicating only dirty pages into corresponding caches in nilfs_shadow_map. Their restoration is done by clearing dirty pages from original caches and by copying dirty pages back from nilfs_shadow_map. Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>

All snapshots and a current mode mount (i.e. latest tree) will be controlled with nilfs_root objects that are kept within an sb instance. nilfs_get_sb() is rewritten so that it always has a root object for the latest tree and snapshots make additional root objects. The root dentry of the latest tree is binded to sb->s_root even if it isn't attached on a directory. Root dentries of snapshots or the latest tree are binded to mnt->mnt_root on which they are mounted. With this patch, nilfs_find_sbinfo() function, nilfs->ns_supers list, and nilfs->ns_current back pointer, are deleted.

This adds a red-black tree of checkpoints to nilfs object, and adds lookup and create functions for them. Each checkpoint is represented by "nilfs_root" structure, and this structure has rb_node to configure the rb-tree. The nilfs_root object is identified with a checkpoint number. For each snapshot, a nilfs_root object is allocated and the checkpoint number of snapshot is assigned to it. For a regular mount (i.e. current mode mount), NILFS_CPTREE_CURRENT_CNO constant is assigned to the corresponding nilfs_root object. Each nilfs_root object has an ifile inode and some counters.
