* lib/vsprintf.c: fix handling of %zd when using ssize_tJason Gunthorpe2012-12-181-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Documentation/printk-formats.txt says to use %zd for a ssize_t argument and some drivers do. Unfortunately this prints a positive number for negative values eg: tpm_tis 70030000.tpm_tis: tpm_transmit: tpm_send: error 4294967234 Add a case to va_args a ssize_t type if the interpretation should be signed.

* printk: boot_delay should only affect outputAndrew Cooks2012-12-181-19/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The boot_delay parameter affects all printk(), even if the log level prevents visible output from the call. It results in delays greater than the user intended without purpose. This patch changes the behaviour of boot_delay to only delay output.

* .gitignore: remove stale entry for generated version.hJonathan Austin2012-12-181-1/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since userspace headers were moved to generated/uapi it possible to have a stale copy of linux/version.h at that file's old location. This causes confusion after building an older kernel version, then checking out and building a new one; the old (stale) version header will still get picked up until it is manually removed. This upsets the C library. Since the uapi changes, include/linux/version.h is no longer generated and should not be ignored, so this patch removes it from .gitignore.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Running a queue must continue after it has been marked dying until it has been marked dead. So the function blk_run_queue_async() must not schedule delayed work after blk_cleanup_queue() has marked a queue dead. Hence add a test for that queue state in blk_run_queue_async() and make sure that queue_unplugged() invokes that function with the queue lock held. This avoids that the queue state can change after it has been tested and before mod_delayed_work() is invoked. Drop the queue dying test in queue_unplugged() since it is now superfluous: __blk_run_queue() already tests whether or not the queue is dead.

| * | block: Avoid that request_fn is invoked on a dead queueBart Van Assche2012-12-064-5/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A block driver may start cleaning up resources needed by its request_fn as soon as blk_cleanup_queue() finished, so request_fn must not be invoked after draining finished. This is important when blk_run_queue() is invoked without any requests in progress. As an example, if blk_drain_queue() and scsi_run_queue() run in parallel, blk_drain_queue() may have finished all requests after scsi_run_queue() has taken a SCSI device off the starved list but before that last function has had a chance to run the queue.

| * | block: Rename queue dead flagBart Van Assche2012-12-068-22/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | QUEUE_FLAG_DEAD is used to indicate that queuing new requests must stop. After this flag has been set queue draining starts. However, during the queue draining phase it is still safe to invoke the queue's request_fn, so QUEUE_FLAG_DYING is a better name for this flag. This patch has been generated by running the following command over the kernel source tree: git grep -lEw 'blk_queue_dead|QUEUE_FLAG_DEAD' | xargs sed -i.tmp -e 's/blk_queue_dead/blk_queue_dying/g' \ -e 's/QUEUE_FLAG_DEAD/QUEUE_FLAG_DYING/g'; \ sed -i.tmp -e "s/QUEUE_FLAG_DYING$(printf \\t)*5/QUEUE_FLAG_DYING$(printf \\t)5/g" \ include/linux/blkdev.h; \ sed -i.tmp -e 's/ DEAD/ DYING/g' -e 's/dead queue/a dying queue/' \ -e 's/Dead queue/A dying queue/' block/blk-core.c Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@acm.org> Acked-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: James Bottomley <JBottomley@Parallels.com> Cc: Mike Christie <michaelc@cs.wisc.edu> Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: Chanho Min <chanho.min@lge.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
| * | bdi: add a user-tunable cpu_list for the bdi flusher threadsJeff Moyer2012-12-052-0/+88
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In realtime environments, it may be desirable to keep the per-bdi flusher threads from running on certain cpus. This patch adds a cpu_list file to /sys/class/bdi/* to enable this. The default is to tie the flusher threads to the same numa node as the backing device (though I could be convinced to make it a mask of all cpus to avoid a change in behaviour).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In a workload, thread 1 accesses a, a+2, ..., thread 2 accesses a+1, a+3,.... When the requests are flushed to queue, a and a+1 are merged to (a, a+1), a+2 and a+3 too to (a+2, a+3), but (a, a+1) and (a+2, a+3) aren't merged. If we do recursive merge for such interleave access, some workloads throughput get improvement. A recent worload I'm checking on is swap, below change boostes the throughput around 5% ~ 10%.

| * | block CFQ: avoid moving request to different queueShaohua Li2012-11-061-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | request is queued in cfqq->fifo list. Looks it's possible we are moving a request from one cfqq to another in request merge case. In such case, adjusting the fifo list order doesn't make sense and is impossible if we don't iterate the whole fifo list. My test does hit one case the two cfqq are different, but didn't cause kernel crash, maybe it's because fifo list isn't used frequently. Anyway, from the code logic, this is buggy. I thought we can re-enable the recusive merge logic after this is fixed. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fusionio.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
