In ide_taskfile_ioctl(), there was a race condition involving
drive->io_32bit. It was cleared and restored during ioctl
requests but there was no synchronization with other requests.
So, other requests could execute with the altered ->io_32bit
setting or updated drive->io_32bit could be overwritten by
ide_taskfile_ioctl().
This patch adds IDE_TFLAG_IO_16BIT flag to indicate to
ide_pio_datablock() that 16-bit I/O is needed regardless of
drive->io_32bit settting.

Remove broken disk byte-swapping support:
- it can cause a data corruption on SMP (or if using PREEMPT on UP)
- all data coming from disk are byte-swapped by taskfile_*_data() which
results in incorrect identify data being reported by /proc/ide/ and IOCTLs
- "hdx=bswap/byteswap" kernel parameter has been broken on m68k host drivers
(including Atari/Q40 ones) since 2.5.x days (because of 'hwif' zero-ing)
- byte-swapping is limited to PIO transfers (for working with TiVo disks on
x86 machines using user-space solutions or dm-byteswap should result in
much better performance because DMA can be used)

* Make remaining built-in only IDE host drivers modular, add ide-scan-pci.c
file for probing PCI host drivers registered with IDE core (special case
for built-in IDE and CONFIG_IDEPCI_PCIBUS_ORDER=y) and then take care of
the ordering in which all IDE host drivers are probed when IDE is built-in
during link time.
* Move probing of gayle, falconide, macide, q40ide and buddha (m68k arch
specific) host drivers, before PCI ones (no PCI on m68k), ide-cris (cris
arch specific), cmd640 (x86 arch specific) and pmac (ppc arch specific).
* Move probing of ide-cris (cris arch specific) host driver before cmd640
(x86 arch specific).
* Move probing of mpc8xx (ppc specific) host driver before ide-pnp (depends
on ISA and none of ppc platform that use mpc8xx supports ISA) and ide-h8300
(h8300 arch specific).
* Add "probe_vlb" kernel parameter to cmd640 host driver and update
Documentation/ide.txt accordingly.
* Make IDE_ARM config option visible so it can also be disabled if needed.
* Remove bogus comment from ide.c while at it.
v2:
* Fix two issues spotted by Sergei:
- replace ENOMEM error value by ENOENT in ide-h8300 host driver
- fix MODULE_PARM_DESC() in cmd640 host driver

This patch implements a new version of RCU which allows its read-side
critical sections to be preempted. It uses a set of counter pairs
to keep track of the read-side critical sections and flips them
when all tasks exit read-side critical section. The details
of this implementation can be found in this paper -
http://www.rdrop.com/users/paulmck/RCU/OLSrtRCU.2006.08.11a.pdf
and the article-
http://lwn.net/Articles/253651/
This patch was developed as a part of the -rt kernel development and
meant to provide better latencies when read-side critical sections of
RCU don't disable preemption. As a consequence of keeping track of RCU
readers, the readers have a slight overhead (optimizations in the paper).
This implementation co-exists with the "classic" RCU implementations
and can be switched to at compiler.
Also includes RCU tracing summarized in debugfs.

We add the notion of a root-domain which will be used later to rescope
global variables to per-domain variables. Each exclusive cpuset
essentially defines an island domain by fully partitioning the member cpus
from any other cpuset. However, we currently still maintain some
policy/state as global variables which transcend all cpusets. Consider,
for instance, rt-overload state.
Whenever a new exclusive cpuset is created, we also create a new
root-domain object and move each cpu member to the root-domain's span.
By default the system creates a single root-domain with all cpus as
members (mimicking the global state we have today).
We add some plumbing for storing class specific data in our root-domain.
Whenever a RQ is switching root-domains (because of repartitioning) we
give each sched_class the opportunity to remove any state from its old
domain and add state to the new one. This logic doesn't have any clients
yet but it will later in the series.

The current wake-up code path tries to determine if it can optimize the
wake-up to "this_cpu" by computing load calculations. The problem is that
these calculations are only relevant to SCHED_OTHER tasks where load is king.
For RT tasks, priority is king. So the load calculation is completely wasted
bandwidth.
Therefore, we create a new sched_class interface to help with
pre-wakeup routing decisions and move the load calculation as a function
of CFS task's class.

Some RT tasks (particularly kthreads) are bound to one specific CPU.
It is fairly common for two or more bound tasks to get queued up at the
same time. Consider, for instance, softirq_timer and softirq_sched. A
timer goes off in an ISR which schedules softirq_thread to run at RT50.
Then the timer handler determines that it's time to smp-rebalance the
system so it schedules softirq_sched to run. So we are in a situation
where we have two RT50 tasks queued, and the system will go into
rt-overload condition to request other CPUs for help.
This causes two problems in the current code:
1) If a high-priority bound task and a low-priority unbounded task queue
up behind the running task, we will fail to ever relocate the unbounded
task because we terminate the search on the first unmovable task.
2) We spend precious futile cycles in the fast-path trying to pull
overloaded tasks over. It is therefore optimial to strive to avoid the
overhead all together if we can cheaply detect the condition before
overload even occurs.
This patch tries to achieve this optimization by utilizing the hamming
weight of the task->cpus_allowed mask. A weight of 1 indicates that
the task cannot be migrated. We will then utilize this information to
skip non-migratable tasks and to eliminate uncessary rebalance attempts.
We introduce a per-rq variable to count the number of migratable tasks
that are currently running. We only go into overload if we have more
than one rt task, AND at least one of them is migratable.
In addition, we introduce a per-task variable to cache the cpus_allowed
weight, since the hamming calculation is probably relatively expensive.
We only update the cached value when the mask is updated which should be
relatively infrequent, especially compared to scheduling frequency
in the fast path.

The current load balancing scheme isn't good enough for precise
group fairness.
For example: on a 8-cpu system, I created 3 groups as under:
a = 8 tasks (cpu.shares = 1024)
b = 4 tasks (cpu.shares = 1024)
c = 3 tasks (cpu.shares = 1024)
a, b and c are task groups that have equal weight. We would expect each
of the groups to receive 33.33% of cpu bandwidth under a fair scheduler.
This is what I get with the latest scheduler git tree:
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Col1 | Col2 | Col3 | Col4
------|---------|-------|-------------------------------------------------------
a | 277.676 | 57.8% | 54.1% 54.1% 54.1% 54.2% 56.7% 62.2% 62.8% 64.5%
b | 116.108 | 24.2% | 47.4% 48.1% 48.7% 49.3%
c | 86.326 | 18.0% | 47.5% 47.9% 48.5%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Explanation of o/p:
Col1 -> Group name
Col2 -> Cumulative execution time (in seconds) received by all tasks of that
group in a 60sec window across 8 cpus
Col3 -> CPU bandwidth received by the group in the 60sec window, expressed in
percentage. Col3 data is derived as:
Col3 = 100 * Col2 / (NR_CPUS * 60)
Col4 -> CPU bandwidth received by each individual task of the group.
Col4 = 100 * cpu_time_recd_by_task / 60
[I can share the test case that produces a similar o/p if reqd]
The deviation from desired group fairness is as below:
a = +24.47%
b = -9.13%
c = -15.33%
which is quite high.
After the patch below is applied, here are the results:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Col1 | Col2 | Col3 | Col4
------|---------|-------|-------------------------------------------------------
a | 163.112 | 34.0% | 33.2% 33.4% 33.5% 33.5% 33.7% 34.4% 34.8% 35.3%
b | 156.220 | 32.5% | 63.3% 64.5% 66.1% 66.5%
c | 160.653 | 33.5% | 85.8% 90.6% 91.4%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Deviation from desired group fairness is as below:
a = +0.67%
b = -0.83%
c = +0.17%
which is far better IMO. Most of other runs have yielded a deviation within
+-2% at the most, which is good.
Why do we see bad (group) fairness with current scheuler?
=========================================================
Currently cpu's weight is just the summation of individual task weights.
This can yield incorrect results. For ex: consider three groups as below
on a 2-cpu system:
CPU0 CPU1
---------------------------
A (10) B(5)
C(5)
---------------------------
Group A has 10 tasks, all on CPU0, Group B and C have 5 tasks each all
of which are on CPU1. Each task has the same weight (NICE_0_LOAD =
1024).
The current scheme would yield a cpu weight of 10240 (10*1024) for each cpu and
the load balancer will think both CPUs are perfectly balanced and won't
move around any tasks. This, however, would yield this bandwidth:
A = 50%
B = 25%
C = 25%
which is not the desired result.
What's changing in the patch?
=============================
- How cpu weights are calculated when CONFIF_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED is
defined (see below)
- API Change
- Two tunables introduced in sysfs (under SCHED_DEBUG) to
control the frequency at which the load balance monitor
thread runs.
The basic change made in this patch is how cpu weight (rq->load.weight) is
calculated. Its now calculated as the summation of group weights on a cpu,
rather than summation of task weights. Weight exerted by a group on a
cpu is dependent on the shares allocated to it and also the number of
tasks the group has on that cpu compared to the total number of
(runnable) tasks the group has in the system.
Let,
W(K,i) = Weight of group K on cpu i
T(K,i) = Task load present in group K's cfs_rq on cpu i
T(K) = Total task load of group K across various cpus
S(K) = Shares allocated to group K
NRCPUS = Number of online cpus in the scheduler domain to
which group K is assigned.
Then,
W(K,i) = S(K) * NRCPUS * T(K,i) / T(K)
A load balance monitor thread is created at bootup, which periodically
runs and adjusts group's weight on each cpu. To avoid its overhead, two
min/max tunables are introduced (under SCHED_DEBUG) to control the rate
at which it runs.

This name is just passed to platform_device_alloc which has its parameter
declared const.

All kobjects require a dynamically allocated name now. We no longer
need to keep track if the name is statically assigned, we can just
unconditionally free() all kobject names on cleanup.

There are no in-kernel users of kobject_unregister() so it should be
removed.

We save the current state in the object itself, so we can do proper
cleanup when the last reference is dropped.
If the initial reference is dropped, the object will be removed from
sysfs if needed, if an "add" event was sent, "remove" will be send, and
the allocated resources are released.
This allows us to clean up some driver core usage as well as allowing us
to do other such changes to the rest of the kernel.

No one is calling this anymore, so just remove it and hard-code the one
internal-use of it.

The function is no longer used by anyone in the kernel, and it prevents
the proper sending of the kobject uevent after the needed files are set
up by the caller. kobject_init_and_add() can be used in its place.

Now that the old kobject_init() function is gone, rename
kobject_init_ng() to kobject_init() to clean up the namespace.

The old kobject_init() function is on longer in use, so let us remove it
from the public scope (kset mess in the kobject.c file still uses it,
but that can be cleaned up later very simply.)

This moves the block devices to /sys/class/block. It will create a
flat list of all block devices, with the disks and partitions in one
directory. For compatibility /sys/block is created and contains symlinks
to the disks.

This patch removes the kobject, and a few other driver-core-only fields
out of struct driver and into the driver core only. Now drivers can be
safely create on the stack or statically (like they currently are.)

The module driver specific code should belong in the driver core, not in
the kernel/ directory. So move this code. This is done in preparation
for some struct device_driver rework that should be confined to the
driver core code only.
This also lets us keep from exporting these functions, as no external
code should ever be calling it.
Thanks to Andrew Morton for the !CONFIG_MODULES fix.
