powerpc/mm: Fix hash computation function

2013-02-11T17:04:42Z

commit eda8eebdd153c48a4e2a3a3ac3cd9e2e31f5c6b3 upstream. The ASM version of hash computation function was truncating the upper bit. Make the ASM version similar to hpt_hash function. Remove masking vsid bits. Without this patch, we observed hang during bootup due to not satisfying page fault request correctly. The fault handler used wrong hash values to update the HPTE. Hence we kept looping with page fault. hash_page(ea=000001003e260008, access=203, trap=300 ip=3fff91787134 dsisr 42000000 The computed value of hash 000000000f22f390 update: avpnv=4003e46054003e00, hash=000000000722f390, f=80000006, psize: 2 ...

readahead: fault retry breaks mmap file read random detection

2012-10-09T07:22:47Z

.fault now can retry. The retry can break state machine of .fault. In filemap_fault, if page is miss, ra->mmap_miss is increased. In the second try, since the page is in page cache now, ra->mmap_miss is decreased. And these are done in one fault, so we can't detect random mmap file access. Add a new flag to indicate .fault is tried once. In the second try, skip ra->mmap_miss decreasing. The filemap_fault state machine is ok with it. I only tested x86, didn't test other archs, but looks the change for other archs is obvious, but who knows :) Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li Cc: Rik van Riel Cc: Wu Fengguang Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

2012-10-02T18:11:09Z

Pull user namespace changes from Eric Biederman: "This is a mostly modest set of changes to enable basic user namespace support. This allows the code to code to compile with user namespaces enabled and removes the assumption there is only the initial user namespace. Everything is converted except for the most complex of the filesystems: autofs4, 9p, afs, ceph, cifs, coda, fuse, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, ocfs2 and xfs as those patches need a bit more review. The strategy is to push kuid_t and kgid_t values are far down into subsystems and filesystems as reasonable. Leaving the make_kuid and from_kuid operations to happen at the edge of userspace, as the values come off the disk, and as the values come in from the network. Letting compile type incompatible compile errors (present when user namespaces are enabled) guide me to find the issues. The most tricky areas have been the places where we had an implicit union of uid and gid values and were storing them in an unsigned int. Those places were converted into explicit unions. I made certain to handle those places with simple trivial patches. Out of that work I discovered we have generic interfaces for storing quota by projid. I had never heard of the project identifiers before. Adding full user namespace support for project identifiers accounts for most of the code size growth in my git tree. Ultimately there will be work to relax privlige checks from "capable(FOO)" to "ns_capable(user_ns, FOO)" where it is safe allowing root in a user names to do those things that today we only forbid to non-root users because it will confuse suid root applications. While I was pushing kuid_t and kgid_t changes deep into the audit code I made a few other cleanups. I capitalized on the fact we process netlink messages in the context of the message sender. I removed usage of NETLINK_CRED, and started directly using current->tty. Some of these patches have also made it into maintainer trees, with no problems from identical code from different trees showing up in linux-next. After reading through all of this code I feel like I might be able to win a game of kernel trivial pursuit."

powerpc: Remove tlb batching hack for nighthawk

2012-09-27T02:51:06Z

In hpte_init_native() we call tlb_batching_enabled() to decide if we should setup ppc_md.flush_hash_range. tlb_batching_enabled() checks the _unflattened_ device tree, to see if we are running on a nighthawk. Since commit a223535 ("dont allow pSeries_probe to succeed without initialising MMU", Dec 2006), hpte_init_native() has been called from pSeries_probe() - at which point we have not yet unflattened the device tree. This means tlb_batching_enabled() will always return true, so the hack has effectively been disabled since Dec 2006. Ergo, I think we can drop it.
