18 years ago[PATCH] ibmveth change buffer pools dynamically
Santiago Leon [Tue, 25 Apr 2006 16:19:59 +0000 (11:19 -0500)]
[PATCH] ibmveth change buffer pools dynamically

This patch provides a sysfs interface to change some properties of the
ibmveth buffer pools (size of the buffers, number of buffers per pool,
and whether a pool is active).  Ethernet drivers use ethtool to provide
this type of functionality.  However, the buffers in the ibmveth driver
can have an arbitrary size (not only regular, mini, and jumbo which are
the only sizes that ethtool can change), and also ibmveth can have an
arbitrary number of buffer pools

Under heavy load we have seen dropped packets which obviously kills TCP
performance.  We have created several fixes that mitigate this issue,
but we definitely need a way of changing the number of buffers for an
adapter dynamically.  Also, changing the size of the buffers allows
users to change the MTU to something big (bigger than a jumbo frame)
greatly improving performance on partition to partition transfers.

The patch creates directories pool1...pool4 in the device directory in
sysfs, each with files: num, size, and active (which default to the
values in the mainline version).

Comments and suggestions are welcome...

NeilBrown [Tue, 23 May 2006 05:35:26 +0000 (22:35 -0700)]
[PATCH] md: fix possible oops when starting a raid0 array

This loop that sets up the hash_table has problems.

Careful examination will show that the last time through, everything but
the first line is pointless.  This is because all it does is change 'cur'
and 'size' and neither of these are used after the loop.  This should ring
warning bells...  That last time through the loop,

        size += conf->strip_zone[cur].size

can index off the end of the strip_zone array.  Depending on what it finds
there, it might exit the loop cleanly, or it might spin going further and
further beyond the array until it hits an unmapped address.

This patch rearranges the code so that the last, pointless, iteration of
the loop never happens.  i.e.  the one statement of the last loop that is
needed is moved the the end of the previous loop - or to before the loop
starts - and the loop counter starts from 1 instead of 0.

[PATCH] knfsd: Fix two problems that can cause rmmod nfsd to die

Both cause the 'entries' count in the export cache to be non-zero at module
removal time, so unregistering that cache fails and results in an oops.

1/ exp_pseudoroot (used for NFSv4 only) leaks a reference to an export
   entry.
2/ sunrpc_cache_update doesn't increment the entries count when it adds

[SPARC64]: Respect gfp_t argument to dma_alloc_coherent().

Using asm-generic/dma-mapping.h does not work because pushing
the call down to pci_alloc_coherent() causes the gfp_t argument
of dma_alloc_coherent() to be ignored.

Fix this by implementing things directly, and adding a gfp_t
argument we can use in the internal call down to the PCI DMA
implementation of pci_alloc_coherent().

This fixes massive memory corruption when using the sound driver
layer, which passes things like __GFP_COMP down into these
routines and (correctly) expects that to work.

[NETFILTER]: SNMP NAT: fix memory corruption

Fix memory corruption caused by snmp_trap_decode:

- When snmp_trap_decode fails before the id and address are allocated,
  the pointers contain random memory, but are freed by the caller
  (snmp_parse_mangle).

- When snmp_trap_decode fails after allocating just the ID, it tries
  to free both address and ID, but the address pointer still contains
  random memory. The caller frees both ID and random memory again.

- When snmp_trap_decode fails after allocating both, it frees both,
  and the callers frees both again.

The corruption can be triggered remotely when the ip_nat_snmp_basic
module is loaded and traffic on port 161 or 162 is NATed.

Found by multiple testcases of the trap-app and trap-enc groups of the

Andy added code to buddy allocator which does not require the zone's
endpoints to be aligned to MAX_ORDER.  An issue is that the buddy allocator
requires the node_mem_map's endpoints to be MAX_ORDER aligned.  Otherwise
__page_find_buddy could compute a buddy not in node_mem_map for partial
MAX_ORDER regions at zone's endpoints.  page_is_buddy will detect that
these pages at endpoints are not PG_buddy (they were zeroed out by bootmem
allocator and not part of zone).  Of course the negative here is we could
waste a little memory but the positive is eliminating all the old checks
for zone boundary conditions.

SPARSEMEM won't encounter this issue because of MAX_ORDER size constraint
when SPARSEMEM is configured.  ia64 VIRTUAL_MEM_MAP doesn't need the logic
either because the holes and endpoints are handled differently.  This
leaves checking alloc_remap and other arches which privately allocate for

Under certain timing conditions, a race during boot occurs where timer

increment jiffies, and if this happens during a window when a timeout is

3) No high resolution timer active
4) A local timer which is supposed to fire before the current jiffies value.

In this circumstance, the comparison in next_timer_interrupt overflows,
because the base of the comparison for high resolution timers is jiffies,

Root cause:

If resume_execution() found 0xff at first byte of p->ainsn.insn, it must

This was first noticed on a tight memory system, in code that was disabling
interrupts and doing allocation requests with __GFP_WAIT not set, which
resulted in __might_sleep() writing complaints to the log "Debug: sleeping
function called ...", when the code in cpuset_zone_allowed() tried to take
the callback_sem cpuset semaphore.

We haven't seen a system hang on this 'might_sleep' yet, but we are at
decent risk of seeing it fairly soon, especially since the additional
cpuset_zone_allowed() check was added, conditioning wakeup_kswapd(), in
March 2006.

Special thanks to Dave Chinner, for figuring this out, and a tip of the hat
to Nick Piggin who warned me of this back in Nov 2005, before I was ready
to listen.

[PATCH] pci: correctly allocate return buffers for osc calls

The OSC set and query functions do not allocate enough space for return
values, and set the output buffer length to a false, too large value.  This
causes the acpi-ca code to assume that the output buffer is larger than it
actually is, and overwrite memory when copying acpi return buffers into
this caller provided buffer.  In some cases this can cause kernel oops if
the memory that is overwritten is a pointer.  This patch will change these
calls to use a dynamically allocated output buffer, thus allowing the
acpi-ca code to decide how much space is needed.

[PATCH] fix race in inotify_release

While doing some inotify stress testing, I hit the following race.  In
inotify_release(), it's possible for a watch to be removed from the lists
in between dropping dev->mutex and taking inode->inotify_mutex.  The
reference we hold prevents the watch from being freed, but not from being
removed.

Checking the dev's idr mapping will prevent a double list_del of the
same watch.

[PATCH] SPARSEMEM incorrectly calculates section number

A bad calculation/loop in __section_nr() could result in incorrect section
information being put into sysfs memory entries.  This primarily impacts
memory add operations as the sysfs information is used while onlining new
memory.

Fix suggested by Dave Hansen.

Note that the bug may not be obvious from the patch.  It actually occurs in
the function's return statement:

return (root_nr * SECTIONS_PER_ROOT) + (ms - root);

In the existing code, root_nr has already been multiplied by
SECTIONS_PER_ROOT.

[PATCH] binfmt_flat: don't check for EMFILE

Bernd Schmidt points out that binfmt_flat is now leaving the exec file open
while the application runs.  This offsets all the application's fd numbers.
We should have closed the file within exec(), not at exit()-time.

But there doesn't seem to be a lot of point in doing all this just to avoid
going over RLIMIT_NOFILE by one fd for a few microseconds.  So take the EMFILE
checking out again.  This will cause binfmt_flat to again fail LTP's
exec-should-return-EMFILE-when-fdtable-is-full test.  That test appears to be
wrong anyway - Open Group specs say nothing about exec() returning EMFILE.
