NeilBrown [Wed, 9 Nov 2005 05:39:34 +0000 (21:39 -0800)]
[PATCH] md: support BIO_RW_BARRIER for md/raid1

We can only accept BARRIER requests if all slaves handle
barriers, and that can, of course, change with time....

So we keep track of whether the whole array seems safe for barriers,
and also whether each individual rdev handles barriers.

We initially assumes barriers are OK.

When writing the superblock we try a barrier, and if that fails, we flag
things for no-barriers.  This will usually clear the flags fairly quickly.

If writing the superblock finds that BIO_RW_BARRIER is -ENOTSUPP, we need to
resubmit, so introduce function "md_super_wait" which waits for requests to
finish, and retries ENOTSUPP requests without the barrier flag.

When writing the real raid1, write requests which were BIO_RW_BARRIER but
which aresn't supported need to be retried.  So raid1d is enhanced to do this,
and when any bio write completes (i.e.  no retry needed) we remove it from the
r1bio, so that devices needing retry are easy to find.

We should hardly ever get -ENOTSUPP errors when writing data to the raid.
It should only happen if:
  1/ the device used to support BARRIER, but now doesn't.  Few devices
     change like this, though raid1 can!
or
  2/ the array has no persistent superblock, so there was no opportunity to
     pre-test for barriers when writing the superblock.

Antonino A. Daplas [Wed, 9 Nov 2005 05:39:09 +0000 (21:39 -0800)]
[PATCH] fbcon: Console Rotation - Prepare fbcon for console rotation

This patch series implements generic code to rotate the console at 90, 180,
and 270 degrees. The implementation is completely done in the framebuffer
console level, thus no changes to the framebuffer layer or to the drivers
are needed.

Console rotation is required by some Sharp-based devices where the natural
orientation of the display is not at 0 degrees. Also, users that have
displays that can pivot will benefit by having a console in portrait mode
if they so desire.

The choice to implement the code in the console layer rather than in the
framebuffer layer is due to the following reasons:

- it's fast
- it does not require driver changes
- it can coexist with devices that can rotate the display at the hardware level
- it complements graphics applications that can do display rotation

The changes to core fbcon are minimal-- recognition of the console
rotation angle so it can swap directions, origins and axes (xres vs yres,
xpanstep vs ypanstep, xoffset vs yoffset, etc) and storage of the rotation
angle per display. The bulk of the code that does the actual drawing to the
screen are placed in separate files. Each angle of rotation has separate
methods (bmove, clear, putcs, cursor, update_start which is derived from
update_var, and clear_margins).  To mimimize processing time, the fontdata
are pre-rotated at each console switch (only if the font or the angle has
changed).

The option can be compiled out (CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_ROTATION = n) if
rotation is not needed.

Choosing the rotation angle can be done in several ways:

1. boot option fbcon=rotate:n, where
     n = 0 - normal
     n = 1 - 90 degrees (clockwise)
     n = 2 - 180 degrees (upside down)
     n = 3 - 270 degrees (counterclockwise)

2. echo n > /sys/class/graphics/fb[num]/con_rotate

     where n is the same as described above. It sets the angle of rotation
of the current console

3 echo n > /sys/class/graphics/fb[num]/con_rotate_all

     where n is the same as described above. Globally sets the angle of
rotation.

GOTCHAS:

The option, especially at angles of 90 and 270 degrees, will exercise
the least used code of drivers.  Namely, at these angles, panning is done
in the x-axis, so it can reveal bugs in the driver if xpanstep is set
incorrectly. A workaround is to set xpanstep = 0.

Secondly, at these angles, the framebuffer memory access can be
unaligned if (fontheight * bpp) % 32 ~= 0 which can reveal bugs in the drivers
imageblit, fillrect and copyarea functions.  (I think cfbfillrect may have
this buglet). A workaround is to use a standard 8x16 font.

Speed:

The scrolling speed difference between 0 and 180 degrees is minimal,
somewhere areound 1-2%.  At 90 or 270 degress, speed drops down to a vicinity
of 30-40%. This is understandable because the blit direction is across the
framebuffer "direction." Scrolling will be helped at these angles if xpanstep
is not equal to zero, use of 8x16 fonts, and setting xres_virtual >= xres * 2.

Note: The code is tested on little-endian only, so I don't know if it will
work in big-endian. Please let me know, it will take only less than a minute
of your time.

This patch prepares fbcon for console rotation and contains the following
changes:

- add rotate field in struct fbcon_ops to keep fbcon's current rotation
  angle

- add con_rotate field in struct display to store per-display rotation angle

- create a private copy of the current var to fbcon.  This will prevent
  fbcon from directly manipulating info->var, especially the fields xoffset,
  yoffset and vmode.

- add ability to swap pertinent axes (xres, yres; xpanstep, ypanstep; etc)
  depending on the rotation angle

- change global update_var() (function that sets the screen start address)
  as an fbcon method update_start.  This is required because the axes, start
  offset, and/or direction can be reversed depending on the rotation angle.

- add fbcon method rotate_font() which will rotate each character bitmap to
  the correct angle of rotation.

- add fbcon boot option 'rotate' to select the angle of rotation at bootime.
   Currently does nothing until all patches are applied.

Nick Piggin [Wed, 9 Nov 2005 05:39:04 +0000 (21:39 -0800)]
[PATCH] sched: resched and cpu_idle rework

Make some changes to the NEED_RESCHED and POLLING_NRFLAG to reduce
confusion, and make their semantics rigid.  Improves efficiency of
resched_task and some cpu_idle routines.

* In resched_task:
- TIF_NEED_RESCHED is only cleared with the task's runqueue lock held,
  and as we hold it during resched_task, then there is no need for an
  atomic test and set there. The only other time this should be set is
  when the task's quantum expires, in the timer interrupt - this is
  protected against because the rq lock is irq-safe.

- If TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set, then we don't need to do anything. It
  won't get unset until the task get's schedule()d off.

- If we are running on the same CPU as the task we resched, then set
  TIF_NEED_RESCHED and no further action is required.

- If we are running on another CPU, and TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG is *not* set
  after TIF_NEED_RESCHED has been set, then we need to send an IPI.

Using these rules, we are able to remove the test and set operation in
resched_task, and make clear the previously vague semantics of
POLLING_NRFLAG.

* In idle routines:
- Enter cpu_idle with preempt disabled. When the need_resched() condition
  becomes true, explicitly call schedule(). This makes things a bit clearer
  (IMO), but haven't updated all architectures yet.

- Many do a test and clear of TIF_NEED_RESCHED for some reason. According
  to the resched_task rules, this isn't needed (and actually breaks the
  assumption that TIF_NEED_RESCHED is only cleared with the runqueue lock
  held). So remove that. Generally one less locked memory op when switching
  to the idle thread.

- Many idle routines clear TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG, and only set it in the inner
  most polling idle loops. The above resched_task semantics allow it to be
  set until before the last time need_resched() is checked before going into
  a halt requiring interrupt wakeup.

  Many idle routines simply never enter such a halt, and so POLLING_NRFLAG
  can be always left set, completely eliminating resched IPIs when rescheduling
  the idle task.

  POLLING_NRFLAG width can be increased, to reduce the chance of resched IPIs.

[PATCH] sched: disable preempt in idle tasks

Run idle threads with preempt disabled.

Also corrected a bugs in arm26's cpu_idle (make it actually call schedule()).
How did it ever work before?

Might fix the CPU hotplugging hang which Nigel Cunningham noted.

We think the bug hits if the idle thread is preempted after checking
need_resched() and before going to sleep, then the CPU offlined.

After calling stop_machine_run, the CPU eventually returns from preemption and
into the idle thread and goes to sleep.  The CPU will continue executing
previous idle and have no chance to call play_dead.

By disabling preemption until we are ready to explicitly schedule, this bug is
fixed and the idle threads generally become more robust.
