2012-07-22quota: Split dquot_quota_sync() to writeback and cache flushing partJan Kara
Split off part of dquot_quota_sync() which writes dquots into a quota file to a separate function. In the next patch we will use the function from filesystems and we do not want to abuse ->quota_sync quotactl callback more than necessary.

2012-07-22switch fput to task_work_addAl Viro
... and schedule_work() for interrupt/kernel_thread callers (and yes, now it *is* OK to call from interrupt). We are guaranteed that __fput() will be done before we return to userland (or exit). Note that for fput() from a kernel thread we get an async behaviour; it's almost always OK, but sometimes you might need to have __fput() completed before you do anything else. There are two mechanisms for that - a general barrier (flush_delayed_fput()) and explicit __fput_sync(). Both should be used with care (as was the case for fput() from kernel threads all along). See comments in fs/file_table.c for details. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2012-07-22net: netprio_cgroup: rework update socket logicJohn Fastabend
Instead of updating the sk_cgrp_prioidx struct field on every send this only updates the field when a task is moved via cgroup infrastructure. This allows sockets that may be used by a kernel worker thread to be managed. For example in the iscsi case today a user can put iscsid in a netprio cgroup and control traffic will be sent with the correct sk_cgrp_prioidx value set but as soon as data is sent the kernel worker thread isssues a send and sk_cgrp_prioidx is updated with the kernel worker threads value which is the default case. It seems more correct to only update the field when the user explicitly sets it via control group infrastructure. This allows the users to manage sockets that may be used with other threads.

2012-07-22mmc: sd: Fix sd current limit settingAaron Lu
Host has different current capabilities at different voltages, we need to record these settings seperately. The defined voltages are 1.8/3.0/3.3. For other voltages, we do not touch current limit setting. Before we set the current limit for the sd card, find out the host's operating voltage first and then find out the current capabilities of the host at that voltage to set the current limit.

2012-07-22mmc: sdhci: Introduce new flag SDHCI_USING_RETUNING_TIMERAaron Lu
Add a new flag of SDHCI_USING_RETUNING_TIMER to represent if the host is using a retuning timer for the card inserted. This flag is set when the host does tuning the first time for the card and the host's retuning mode is 1. This flag is used afterwards whenever needs to decide if the host is currently using a retuning timer. This flag is cleared when the card is removed in sdhci_reinit. The set/clear of the flag and the start/stop of the retuning timer is associated with the card's init/remove time, so there is no need to touch it when the host is to be removed as at that time the card should have already been removed.

2012-07-22mmc: sdhci: Allow caps[1] to be set via SDHCI_QUIRK_MISSING_CAPSPhilip Rakity
Currently only the capability_0 register can be set if SDHCI_QUIRK_MISSING_CAPS is defined. This is a problem when the capability_1 register also needs changing. Use the quirk SDHCI_QUIRK_MISSING_CAPS to allow both registers to be set. Redefining caps[1] is useful when the board design does not support 1.8v vccq so UHS modes are not available. The code that calls sdhci_add_host can then detect this condition and adjust the caps so the UHS mode will not be attempted on UHS cards.

2012-07-22kthread_worker: reimplement flush_kthread_work() to allow freeing the work ↵Tejun Heo
item being executed kthread_worker provides minimalistic workqueue-like interface for users which need a dedicated worker thread (e.g. for realtime priority). It has basic queue, flush_work, flush_worker operations which mostly match the workqueue counterparts; however, due to the way flush_work() is implemented, it has a noticeable difference of not allowing work items to be freed while being executed. While the current users of kthread_worker are okay with the current behavior, the restriction does impede some valid use cases. Also, removing this difference isn't difficult and actually makes the code easier to understand. This patch reimplements flush_kthread_work() such that it uses a flush_work item instead of queue/done sequence numbers. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

Merge emailed kgdb dmesg fixups patches from Anton Vorontsov: "The dmesg command appears to be broken after the printk rework. The old logic in the kdb code makes no sense in terms of current printk/logging storage format, and KDB simply hangs forever upon entering 'dmesg' command. The first patch revives the command by switching to kmsg_dumper iterator. As a side-effect, the code is now much more simpler. A few changes were needed in the printk.c: we needed unlocked variant of the kmsg_dumper iterator, but these can surely wait for 3.6. It's probably too late even for the first patch to go to 3.5, but I'll try to convince otherwise. :-) Here we go: - The current code is broken for sure, and has no hope to work at all. It is a regression - The new code works for me, and probably works for everyone else; - If it compiles (and I urge everyone to compile-test it on your setup), it hardly can make things worse." * Merge emailed patches from Anton Vorontsov: (4 commits) kdb: Switch to nolock variants of kmsg_dump functions printk: Implement some unlocked kmsg_dump functions printk: Remove kdb_syslog_data kdb: Revive dmesg command

This patch fixes a crash tun_chr_close -> netdev_run_todo -> tun_free_netdev -> sk_release_kernel -> sock_release -> iput(SOCK_INODE(sock)) introduced by commit 1ab5ecb90cb6a3df1476e052f76a6e8f6511cb3d The problem is that this socket is embedded in struct tun_struct, it has no inode, iput is called on invalid inode, which modifies invalid memory and optionally causes a crash. sock_release also decrements sockets_in_use, this causes a bug that "sockets: used" field in /proc/*/net/sockstat keeps on decreasing when creating and closing tun devices. This patch introduces a flag SOCK_EXTERNALLY_ALLOCATED that instructs sock_release to not free the inode and not decrement sockets_in_use, fixing both memory corruption and sockets_in_use underflow.

2012-07-20tcp: improve latencies of timer triggered eventsEric Dumazet
Modern TCP stack highly depends on tcp_write_timer() having a small latency, but current implementation doesn't exactly meet the expectations. When a timer fires but finds the socket is owned by the user, it rearms itself for an additional delay hoping next run will be more successful. tcp_write_timer() for example uses a 50ms delay for next try, and it defeats many attempts to get predictable TCP behavior in term of latencies. Use the recently introduced tcp_release_cb(), so that the user owning the socket will call various handlers right before socket release. This will permit us to post a followup patch to address the tcp_tso_should_defer() syndrome (some deferred packets have to wait RTO timer to be transmitted, while cwnd should allow us to send them sooner) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Cc: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Cc: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Cc: Nandita Dukkipati <nanditad@google.com> Cc: H.K.

2012-07-20can: mark bittiming_const pointer in struct can_priv as constMarc Kleine-Budde
This patch marks the bittiming_const pointer as in the struct can_pric as "const". This allows us to mark the struct can_bittiming_const in the CAN drivers as "const", too. Signed-off-by: Marc Kleine-Budde <mkl@pengutronix.de>
2012-07-20[SCSI] async: make async_synchronize_full() flush all work regardless of domainDan Williams
In response to an async related regression James noted: "My theory is that this is an init problem: The assumption in a lot of our code is that async_synchronize_full() waits for everything ... even the domain specific async schedules, which isn't true." ...so make this assumption true. Each domain, including the default one, registers itself on a global domain list when work is scheduled. Once all entries complete it exits that list. Waiting for the list to be empty syncs all in-flight work across all domains. Domains can opt-out of global syncing if they are declared as exclusive ASYNC_DOMAIN_EXCLUSIVE(). All stack-based domains have been declared exclusive since the domain may go out of scope as soon as the last work item completes. Statically declared domains are mostly ok, but async_unregister_domain() is there to close any theoretical races with pending async_synchronize_full waiters at module removal time.

2012-07-20[SCSI] async: introduce 'async_domain' typeDan Williams
This is in preparation for teaching async_synchronize_full() to sync all pending async work, and not just on the async_running domain. This conversion is functionally equivalent, just embedding the existing list in a new async_domain type. The .registered attribute is used in a later patch to distinguish between domains that want to be flushed by async_synchronize_full() versus those that only expect async_synchronize_{full|cookie}_domain to be used for flushing.

2012-07-20[SCSI] virtio-scsi: Add vdrv->scan for post VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK LUN ↵Nicholas Bellinger
scanning This patch changes virtio-scsi to use a new virtio_driver->scan() callback so that scsi_scan_host() can be properly invoked once virtio_dev_probe() has set add_status(dev, VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK) to signal active virtio-ring operation, instead of from within virtscsi_probe(). This fixes a bug where SCSI LUN scanning for both virtio-scsi-raw and virtio-scsi/tcm_vhost setups was happening before VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK had been set, causing VIRTIO_SCSI_S_BAD_TARGET to occur. This fixes a bug with virtio-scsi/tcm_vhost where LUN scan was not detecting LUNs. Tested with virtio-scsi-raw + virtio-scsi/tcm_vhost w/ IBLOCK on 3.5-rc2 code.

2012-07-20[SCSI] virtio-scsi: hotplug support for virtio-scsiCong Meng
This patch implements the hotplug support for virtio-scsi. When there is a device attached/detached, the virtio-scsi driver will be signaled via event virtual queue and it will add/remove the scsi device in question automatically.
