2011-05-20list: remove prefetching from regular list iteratorsLinus Torvalds2-18/+14
This is removes the use of software prefetching from the regular list iterators. We don't want it. If you do want to prefetch in some iterator of yours, go right ahead. Just don't expect the iterator to do it, since normally the downsides are bigger than the upsides. It also replaces <linux/prefetch.h> with <linux/const.h>, because the use of LIST_POISON ends up needing it. <linux/poison.h> is sadly not self-contained, and including prefetch.h just happened to hide that. Suggested by David Miller (networking has a lot of regular lists that are often empty or a single entry, and prefetching is not going to do anything but add useless instructions).

2011-05-20hlist: remove software prefetching in hlist iteratorsLinus Torvalds2-10/+9
They not only increase the code footprint, they actually make things slower rather than faster. On internationally acclaimed benchmarks ("make -j16" on an already fully built kernel source tree) the hlist prefetching slows down the build by up to 1%. (Almost all of it comes from hlist_for_each_entry_rcu() as used by avc_has_perm_noaudit(), which is very hot due to all the pathname lookups to see if there is anything to do). The cause seems to be two-fold: - on at least some Intel cores, prefetch(NULL) ends up with some microarchitectural stall due to the TLB miss that it incurs. The hlist case triggers this very commonly, since the NULL pointer is the last entry in the list. - the prefetch appears to cause more D$ activity, probably because it prefetches hash list entries that are never actually used (because we ended the search early due to a hit). Regardless, the numbers clearly say that the implicit prefetching is simply a bad idea. If some _particular_ user of the hlist iterators wants to prefetch the next list entry, they can do so themselves explicitly, rather than depend on all list iterators doing so implicitly.

2011-05-19modpost: Update 64k section support for binutils 2.18.50Anders Kaseorg2-29/+14
Binutils 2.18.50 made a backwards-incompatible change in the way it writes ELF objects with over 65280 sections, to improve conformance with the ELF specification and interoperability with other ELF tools. Specifically, it no longer adds 256 to section indices SHN_LORESERVE and higher to skip over the reserved range SHN_LORESERVE through SHN_HIRESERVE; those values are only considered special in the st_shndx field, and not in other places where section indices are stored.

2011-05-19module: Use binary search in lookup_symbol()Alessio Igor Bogani1-5/+2
The function is_exported() with its helper function lookup_symbol() are used to verify if a provided symbol is effectively exported by the kernel or by the modules. Now that both have their symbols sorted we can replace a linear search with a binary search which provide a considerably speed-up.

2011-05-19lib: Add generic binary search function to the kernel.Tim Abbott3-1/+64
There a large number hand-coded binary searches in the kernel (run "git grep search | grep binary" to find many of them). Since in my experience, hand-coding binary searches can be error-prone, it seems worth cleaning this up by providing a generic binary search function. This generic binary search implementation comes from Ksplice. It has the same basic API as the C library bsearch() function. Ksplice uses it in half a dozen places with 4 different comparison functions, and I think our code is substantially cleaner because of this.

2011-05-19module: Sort exported symbolsAlessio Igor Bogani3-12/+23
This patch places every exported symbol in its own section (i.e. "___ksymtab+printk"). Thus the linker will use its SORT() directive to sort and finally merge all symbol in the right and final section (i.e. "__ksymtab"). The symbol prefixed archs use an underscore as prefix for symbols. To avoid collision we use a different character to create the temporary section names.

2011-05-19module: undo module RONX protection correctly.Jan Glauber3-12/+19
While debugging I stumbled over two problems in the code that protects module pages. First issue is that disabling the protection before freeing init or unload of a module is not symmetric with the enablement. For instance, if pages are set to RO the page range from module_core to module_core + core_ro_size is protected. If a module is unloaded the page range from module_core to module_core + core_size is set back to RW. So pages that were not set to RO are also changed to RW. This is not critical but IMHO it should be symmetric. Second issue is that while set_memory_rw & set_memory_ro are used for RO/RW changes only set_memory_nx is involved for NX/X. One would await that the inverse function is called when the NX protection should be removed, which is not the case here, unless I'm missing something.

2011-05-19module: deal with alignment issues in built-in module versionsDmitry Torokhov2-8/+11
On m68k natural alignment is 2-byte boundary but we are trying to align structures in __modver section on sizeof(void *) boundary. This causes trouble when we try to access elements in this section in array-like fashion when create "version" attributes for built-in modules. Moreover, as DaveM said, we can't reliably put structures into independent objects, put them into a special section, and then expect array access over them (via the section boundaries) after linking the objects together to just "work" due to variable alignment choices in different situations. The only solution that seems to work reliably is to make an array of plain pointers to the objects in question and put those pointers in the special section.

2011-05-18drivercore: revert addition of of_match to struct deviceGrant Likely22-50/+108
Commit b826291c, "drivercore/dt: add a match table pointer to struct device" added an of_match pointer to struct device to cache the of_match_table entry discovered at driver match time. This was unsafe because matching is not an atomic operation with probing a driver. If two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get overwritten. This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to call of_match_device() directly instead. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>

2011-05-18configfs: Fix race between configfs_readdir() and configfs_d_iput()Joel Becker1-5/+28
configfs_readdir() will use the existing inode numbers of inodes in the dcache, but it makes them up for attribute files that aren't currently instantiated. There is a race where a closing attribute file can be tearing down at the same time as configfs_readdir() is trying to get its inode number. We want to get the inode number of open attribute files, because they should match while instantiated. We can't lock down the transition where dentry->d_inode is set to NULL, so we just check for NULL there. We can, however, ensure that an inode we find isn't iput() in configfs_d_iput() until after we've accessed it. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <jlbec@evilplan.org>

If that should fail, it must clean up after itself. I was using d_delete() here, but configfs_attach_group() promises to return an empty dentry on error. d_delete() explodes with the entry dentry.

2011-05-18um: fix abortRichard Weinberger1-1/+22
os_dump_core() uses abort() to terminate UML in case of an fatal error. glibc's abort() calls raise(SIGABRT) which makes use of tgkill(). tgkill() has no effect within UML's kernel threads because they are not pthreads. As fallback abort() executes an invalid instruction to terminate the process. Therefore UML gets killed by SIGSEGV and leaves a ugly log entry in the host's kernel ring buffer. To get rid of this we use our own abort routine.

2011-05-18rapidio: fix default routing initializationAlexandre Bounine3-0/+21
Fix switch initialization to ensure that all switches have default routing disabled. This guarantees that no unexpected RapidIO packets arrive to the default port set by reset and there is no default routing destination until it is properly configured by software. This update also unifies handling of unmapped destinations by tsi57x, IDT Gen1 and IDT Gen2 switches.

2011-05-18cifs: fix cifsConvertToUCS() for the mapchars caseJeff Layton1-8/+6
As Metze pointed out, commit 84cdf74e broke mapchars option: Commit "cifs: fix unaligned accesses in cifsConvertToUCS" (84cdf74e8096a10dd6acbb870dd404b92f07a756) does multiple steps in just one commit (moving the function and changing it without testing). put_unaligned_le16(temp, &target[j]); is never called for any codepoint the goes via the 'default' switch statement. As a result we put just zero (or maybe uninitialized) bytes into the target buffer. His proposed patch looks correct, but doesn't apply to the current head of the tree. This patch should also fix it.
