17 years ago[S390] Switch etr from tasklet to workqueue.

[S390] Switch etr from tasklet to workqueue.

The clock synchronization of the ETR code requires an smp_call_function
to synchronize all cpus. Calling smp_call_function from a tasklet is
illegal. Replace the tasklet with a job on the global workqueue.

[S390] split page_test_and_clear_dirty.

The page_test_and_clear_dirty primitive really consists of two
operations, page_test_dirty and the page_clear_dirty. The combination
of the two is not an atomic operation, so it makes more sense to have
two separate operations instead of one.
In addition to the improved readability of the s390 version of
SetPageUptodate, it now avoids the page_test_dirty operation which is
an insert-storage-key-extended (iske) instruction which is an expensive

cfq-iosched: fix alias + front merge bug

There's a really rare and obscure bug in CFQ, that causes a crash in
cfq_dispatch_insert() due to rq == NULL.  One example of the resulting
oops is seen here:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/15/41

Neil correctly diagnosed the situation for how this can happen: if two
concurrent requests with the exact same sector number (due to direct IO
or aliasing between MD and the raw device access), the alias handling
will add the request to the sortlist, but next_rq remains NULL.

Read the more complete analysis at:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/25/57

This looks like it requires md to trigger, even though it should
potentially be possible to due with O_DIRECT (at least if you edit the
kernel and doctor some of the unplug calls).

The fix is to move the ->next_rq update to when we add a request to the
rbtree. Then we remove the possibility for a request to exist in the
rbtree code, but not have ->next_rq correctly updated.

It causes hang on boot for some users and we don't yet know why:

Just reverse it for 2.6.21-final, having broken X server is somehow

RPC: Fix the TCP resend semantics for NFSv4

Fix a regression due to the patch "NFS: disconnect before retrying NFSv4
requests over TCP"

The assumption made in xprt_transmit() that the condition
"req->rq_bytes_sent == 0 and request is on the receive list"
should imply that we're dealing with a retransmission is false.
Firstly, it may simply happen that the socket send queue was full
at the time the request was initially sent through xprt_transmit().
Secondly, doing this for each request that was retransmitted implies
that we disconnect and reconnect for _every_ request that happened to
be retransmitted irrespective of whether or not a disconnection has
already occurred.

Fix is to move this logic into the call_status request timeout handler.

NFS: Fix the 'desynchronized value of nfs_i.ncommit' error

Ensure that all requests on the commit queue are labelled with the
PG_NEED_COMMIT flag, and avoid moving them onto the dirty list inside
nfs_page_mark_flush().

Also inline nfs_mark_request_dirty() into nfs_page_mark_flush() for

cfq-iosched: fix sequential write regression

We have a 10-15% performance regression for sequential writes on TCQ/NCQ
enabled drives in 2.6.21-rcX after the CFQ update went in.  It has been
reported by Valerie Clement <valerie.clement@bull.net> and the Intel
testing folks.  The regression is because of CFQ's now more aggressive
queue control, limiting the depth available to the device.

This patches fixes that regression by allowing a greater depth when only
one queue is busy.  It has been tested to not impact sync-vs-async
workloads too much - we still do a lot better than 2.6.20.
