v3 -> v2: Added text to describe the problem

v1 : Part of: http://marc.info/?l=linux-pci&m=130042212003242&w=2
Disable ASPM when no _OSC control for PCIe services is granted
by the BIOS. This is to protect systems with a buggy BIOS that
did not set the ACPI FADT "ASPM Controls" bit even though the
underlying HW can't do ASPM.
To turn "on" ASPM the minimum the BIOS needs to do:
1. Clear the ACPI FADT "ASPM Controls" bit.
2. Support _OSC appropriately
There is no _OSC Control bit for ASPM. However, we expect the BIOS to
support _OSC for a Root Bridge that originates a PCIe hierarchy. If this
is not the case - we are better off not enabling ASPM on that server.
Commit 852972acff (ACPI: Disable ASPM if the
Platform won't provide _OSC control for PCIe) describes the above scenario.
To quote verbatim from there:
[The PCI SIG documentation for the _OSC OS/firmware handshaking interface
states:
"If the _OSC control method is absent from the scope of a host bridge
device, then the operating system must not enable or attempt to use any
features defined in this section for the hierarchy originated by the host
bridge."
The obvious interpretation of this is that the OS should not attempt to use
PCIe hotplug, PME or AER - however, the specification also notes that an
_OSC method is *required* for PCIe hierarchies, and experimental validation
with An Alternative OS indicates that it doesn't use any PCIe functionality
if the _OSC method is missing. That arguably means we shouldn't be using
MSI or extended config space, but right now our problems seem to be limited
to vendors being surprised when ASPM gets enabled on machines when other
OSs refuse to do so. So, for now, let's just disable ASPM if the _OSC
method doesn't exist or refuses to hand over PCIe capability control.]

v2 -> v1: Returned -EPERM
v1 : http://marc.info/?l=linux-pci&m=130013194803727&w=2
For servers whose hardware cannot handle ASPM the BIOS ought to set the
FADT bit shown below:
In Sec 5.2.9.3 (IA-PC Boot Arch. Flags) of ACPI4.0a Specification, please
see Table 5-11:
PCIe ASPM Controls: If set, indicates to OSPM that it must not enable
OPSM ASPM control on this platform.
However there are shipping servers whose BIOS did not set this bit. (An
example is the HP ProLiant DL385 G6. A Maintenance BIOS will fix that).
For such servers even if a call is made via pci_no_aspm(), based on _OSC
support in the BIOS, it may be too late because the ASPM code may have
already allocated and filled its "link_list".
So if a user sets the ASPM "policy" to "powersave" via /sys then
pcie_aspm_set_policy() will run through the "link_list" and re-configure
ASPM policy on devices that advertise ASPM L0s/L1 capability:
# echo powersave > /sys/module/pcie_aspm/parameters/policy
# cat /sys/module/pcie_aspm/parameters/policy
default performance [powersave]
That can cause NMIs since the hardware doesn't play well with ASPM:
[ 1651.906015] NMI: PCI system error (SERR) for reason b1 on CPU 0.
[ 1651.906015] Dazed and confused, but trying to continue
Ideally, the BIOS should have set that FADT bit in the first place but we
could be more robust - especially given the fact that Windows doesn't
cause NMIs in the above scenario.
There should be a sanity check to not allow a user to modify ASPM policy
when aspm_disabled is set.

v3 -> v2: Moved ASPM enabling logic to pci_set_power_state()
v2 -> v1: Preserved the logic in pci_raw_set_power_state()
: Added ASPM enabling logic after scanning Root Bridge
: http://marc.info/?l=linux-pci&m=130046996216391&w=2
v1 : http://marc.info/?l=linux-pci&m=130013164703283&w=2
The assumption made in commit 41cd766b06
(PCI: Don't enable aspm before drivers have had a chance to veto it) that
pci_enable_device() will result in re-configuring ASPM when aspm_policy is
POWERSAVE is no longer valid. This is due to commit
97c145f7c8 (PCI: read current power state
at enable time) which resets dev->current_state to D0. Due to this the
call to pcie_aspm_pm_state_change() is never made. Note the equality check
(below) that returns early:
./drivers/pci/pci.c: pci_raw_set_pci_power_state()
546 /* Check if we're already there */
547 if (dev->current_state == state)
548 return 0;
Therefore OSPM never configures the PCIe links for ASPM to turn them "on".
Fix it by configuring ASPM from the pci_enable_device() code path. This
also allows a driver such as the e1000e networking driver a chance to
disable ASPM (L0s, L1), if need be, prior to enabling the device. A
driver may perform this action if the device is known to mis-behave
wrt ASPM.

We need to distinguish the situation in which ASPM support is
disabled from the command line or through .config from the situation
in which it is disabled, because the hardware or BIOS can't handle
it. In the former case we should not report ASPM support to the BIOS
through ACPI _OSC, but in the latter case we should do that.
Introduce pcie_aspm_support_enabled() that can be used by
acpi_pci_root_add() to determine whether or not it should report ASPM
support to the BIOS through _OSC.

This device contains the very same bug in report descriptor as the
Ortek ones do (i.e. LogicalMinimum == 1, which is wrong for the key
array).
As we have more reports for the Ortek devices, we are keeping the driver
name for now. Apparently there is a chip producer which sells chip with
this buggy descriptor to multiple vendors. Thus if such reports start
to come at highger frequency, we'll either have to rename the driver
accordingly, or come up with more generic workaround.

We have been creating bitmaps for small extents unconditionally forever. This
was great when testing to make sure the bitmap stuff was working, but is
overkill normally. So instead of always adding small chunks of free space to
bitmaps, only start doing it if we go past half of our extent threshold. This
will keeps us from creating a bitmap for just one small free extent at the front
of the block group, and will make the allocator a little faster as a result.

We do all this fun stuff with min_bytes, but either don't use it in the case of
just normal extents, or use it completely wrong in the case of bitmaps. So fix
this for both cases
1) In the extent case, stop looking for space with window_free >= min_bytes
instead of bytes + empty_size.
2) In the bitmap case, we were looking for streches of free space that was at
least min_bytes in size, which was not right at all. So instead search for
stretches of free space that are at least bytes in size (this will make a
difference when we have > page size blocks) and then only search for min_bytes
amount of free space.

The usage of find_first_zero_bit() in bfs_create() is wrong for two
reasons.
The bitmap size argument to find_first_zero_bit() is info->si_lasti but
the correct bitmap size is info->si_lasti + 1 as info->si_lasti is the
last valid index in info->si_imap bitmap.
Another problem is that it is impossible to detect that info->si_imap
bitmap is full because there is an off-by-one bug in the return value
check for find_first_zero_bit(). If no zero bits exist in info->si_imap,
find_first_zero_bit() returns info->si_lasti. But the check can't catch
it due to the off-by-one.

One of the disadvantages of on-stack plugging is that we potentially
lose out on merging since all pending IO isn't always visible to
everybody. When we flush the on-stack plugs, right now we don't do
any checks to see if potential merge candidates could be utilized.
Correct this by adding a new insert variant, ELEVATOR_INSERT_SORT_MERGE.
It works just ELEVATOR_INSERT_SORT, but first checks whether we can
merge with an existing request before doing the insertion (if we fail
merging).
This fixes a regression with multiple processes issuing IO that
can be merged.

It is frequently useful to sync a single file system, instead of all
mounted file systems via sync(2):
- On machines with many mounts, it is not at all uncommon for some of
them to hang (e.g. unresponsive NFS server). sync(2) will get stuck on
those and may never get to the one you do care about (e.g., /).
- Some applications write lots of data to the file system and then
want to make sure it is flushed to disk. Calling fsync(2) on each
file introduces unnecessary ordering constraints that result in a large
amount of sub-optimal writeback/flush/commit behavior by the file
system.
There are currently two ways (that I know of) to sync a single super_block:
- BLKFLSBUF ioctl on the block device: That also invalidates the bdev
mapping, which isn't usually desirable, and doesn't work for non-block
file systems.
- 'mount -o remount,rw' will call sync_filesystem as an artifact of the
current implemention. Relying on this little-known side effect for
something like data safety sounds foolish.
Both of these approaches require root privileges, which some applications
do not have (nor should they need?) given that sync(2) is an unprivileged
operation.
This patch introduces a new system call syncfs(2) that takes an fd and
syncs only the file system it references. Maybe someday we can
$ sync /some/path
and not get
sync: ignoring all arguments
The syscall is motivated by comments by Al and Christoph at the last LSF.
syncfs(2) seems like an appropriate name given statfs(2).
A similar ioctl was also proposed a while back, see

In some cases during a threaded core dump not all the threads will have
a full register set. This happens when the signal causing the core dump
races with a thread exiting. The race happens when the exiting thread
has entered the kernel for the last time before the signal arrives, but
doesn't get far enough through the exit code to avoid being included
in the core dump.
So we get a thread included in the core dump which is never going to go
out to userspace again and only has a partial register set recorded
Normally we would catch each thread as it is about to go into userspace
and capture the full register set then.
However, this exiting thread is never going to go out to userspace
again, so we have no way to capture its full register set. It doesn't
really matter, though, as this is a thread which is effectively
already dead.
So instead of hitting a BUG() in this case (a really bad choice of
action in the first place), we use a poison value for the register
values.
