[XFS] Use KM_NOFS for debug trace buffers
Use KM_NOFS to prevent recursion back into the filesystem which can cause
deadlocks.
In the case of xfs_iread() we hold the lock on the inode cluster buffer
while allocating memory for the trace buffers. If we recurse back into XFS
to flush data that may require a transaction to allocate extents which
needs log space. This can deadlock with the xfsaild thread which can't
push the tail of the log because it is trying to get the inode cluster
buffer lock.

be freed by that time in case inode flushing has kicked in, so strictly

[XFS] extend completions to provide XFS object flush requirements
XFS object flushing doesn't quite match existing completion semantics. It
mixed exclusive access with completion. That is, we need to mark an object as
being flushed before flushing it to disk, and then block any other attempt to
flush it until the completion occurs. We do this but adding an extra count to
the completion before we start using them. However, we still need to
determine if there is a completion in progress, and allow no-blocking attempts
fo completions to decrement the count.
To do this we introduce:
int try_wait_for_completion(struct completion *x)
returns a failure status if done == 0, otherwise decrements done
to zero and returns a "started" status. This is provided
to allow counted completions to begin safely while holding
object locks in inverted order.
int completion_done(struct completion *x)
returns 1 if there is no waiter, 0 if there is a waiter
(i.e. a completion in progress).
This replaces the use of semaphores for providing this exclusion
and completion mechanism.

Except for the sorting of the inodes this logic is implemented in
xfs_lock_inodes, but also partially duplicated in xfs_lock_dir_and_entry

is not optimal.
This patch adds a new helper xfs_lock_two_inodes that takes two inodes and
locks them in the most optimal way according to the above locking protocol
and uses it for all places that want to lock two inodes.
The only caller of xfs_lock_inodes is xfs_rename which might lock up to
four inodes.

[XFS] Use KM_NOFS for incore inode extent tree allocation V2
If we allow incore extent tree allocations to recurse into the
filesystem under memory pressure, new delayed allocations through
xfs_iomap_write_delay() can deadlock on themselves if memory
reclaim tries to write back dirty pages from that inode.
It will deadlock in xfs_iomap_write_allocate() trying to take the
ilock we already hold. This can also show up as complex ABBA deadlocks
when multiple threads are triggering memory reclaim when trying to
allocate extents.
The main cause of this is the fact that delayed allocation is not done in
a transaction, so KM_NOFS is not automatically added to the allocations to
prevent this recursion.
Mark all allocations done for the incore inode extent tree as KM_NOFS to
ensure they never recurse back into the filesystem.

Specify how much physically continuous, DMA capable memory will be
allocated at driver initialization time. This allow to create framebuffer
device with larger virtual resolution. Combine with y-panning this can be
used to implement double buffering acceleration method.

atmel_lcdfb: set ypanstep to 1 and enable y-panning on AT91
Panning in the y-direction can be done by simply changing the DMA base
address. This code is already in place, but FBIOPAN_DISPLAY will
currently fail because ypanstep is 0.
Set ypanstep to 1 to indicate that we do support y-panning and also set
the necessary acceleration flags on AT91 (AVR32 already have them.)

radeonfb: fix accel engine hangs
Some chips appear to have the 2D engine hang during screen redraw,
typically in a sequence of copyarea operations. This appear to be
solved by adding a flush of the engine destination pixel cache
and waiting for the engine to be idle before issuing the accel
operation. The performance impact seems to be fairly small.
Here is a trace on an RV370 (PCI device ID 0x5b64), it records the
RBBM_STATUS register, then the source x/y, destination x/y, and
width/height used for the copy:
When things are going fine the copies complete before the next ROP is
even issued, but all of a sudden the 2D unit becomes active (bit 17 in
RBBM_STATUS) and the FIFO retry (bit 13) and FIFO pipeline busy (bit
14) are set as well. The FIFO begins to backup until it becomes full.
What happens next is the radeon_fifo_wait() times out, and we access
the chip illegally leading to a bus error which usually wedges the
box. None of this makes it to the console screen, of course :-)
radeon_fifo_wait() should be modified to reset the accelerator when
this timeout happens instead of programming the chip anyways.
Another quirk is that these copyarea calls will not happen until the
first drivers/char/vt.c:redraw_screen() occurs. This will only happen
if you 1) VC switch or 2) run "consolechars" or 3) unblank the screen.
This seems to happen because until a redraw_screen() the screen scrolling
method used by fbcon is not finalized yet. I've seen this with other fb
drivers too.
So if all you do is boot straight into X you will never see this bug on
the relevant chips.

Bah, while reviewing the locking based on your previous email I spotted
that we need to check the return from the vma_needs_reservation call for
allocation errors. Here is an updated patch to correct this. This passes

hugetlbfs: allocate structures for reservation tracking outside of spinlocks
In the normal case, hugetlbfs reserves hugepages at map time so that the
pages exist for future faults. A struct file_region is used to track when
reservations have been consumed and where. These file_regions are
allocated as necessary with kmalloc() which can sleep with the
mm->page_table_lock held. This is wrong and triggers may-sleep warning
when PREEMPT is enabled.
Updates to the underlying file_region are done in two phases. The first
phase prepares the region for the change, allocating any necessary memory,
without actually making the change. The second phase actually commits the
change. This patch makes use of this by checking the reservations before
the page_table_lock is taken; triggering any necessary allocations. This
may then be safely repeated within the locks without any allocations being
required.
Credit to Mel Gorman for diagnosing this failure and initial versions of
the patch.

hugetlb: call arch_prepare_hugepage() for surplus pages
The s390 software large page emulation implements shared page tables by
using page->index of the first tail page from a compound large page to
store page table information. This is set up in arch_prepare_hugepage(),
which is called from alloc_fresh_huge_page_node().
A similar call to arch_prepare_hugepage() is missing for surplus large
pages that are allocated in alloc_buddy_huge_page(), which breaks the
software emulation mode for (surplus) large pages on s390. This patch
adds the missing call to arch_prepare_hugepage(). It will have no effect
on other architectures where arch_prepare_hugepage() is a nop.
Also, use the correct order in the error path in alloc_fresh_huge_page_node().

Under rare circumstances, the ehca hardware might erroneously generate
two CQEs for the same WQE, which is not compliant to the IB spec and
will cause unpredictable errors like memory being freed twice. To
avoid this problem, the driver needs to detect the second CQE and
discard it.
For this purpose, introduce an array holding as many elements as the
SQ of the QP, called sq_map. Each sq_map entry stores a "reported"
flag for one WQE in the SQ. When a work request is posted to the SQ,
the respective "reported" flag is set to zero. After the arrival of a
CQE, the flag is set to 1, which allows to detect the occurence of a
second CQE.
The mapping between WQE / CQE and the corresponding sq_map element is
implemented by replacing the lowest 16 Bits of the wr_id with the
index in the queue map. The original 16 Bits are stored in the sq_map
entry and are restored when the CQE is passed to the application.

The idr_find() function may fail when trying to get the QP that is
associated with a CQE, e.g. when a QP has been destroyed between the
generation of a CQE and the poll request for it. In consequence, the
return value of idr_find() must be checked and the CQE must be
discarded when the QP cannot be found.

When the ehca driver detects an invalid opcode in a CQE, it currently
passes the CQE to the application and returns with success. This patch
changes the CQE handling to discard CQEs with invalid opcodes and to
continue reading the next CQE from the CQ.
