[SCSI] libiscsi regression in 2.6.25: fix setting of recv timer
If the ping tmo is longer than the recv tmo then we could miss a window
where we were supposed to check the recv tmo. This happens because
the ping code will set the next timeout for the ping timeout, and if the
ping executes quickly there will be a long chunk of time before the
timer wakes up again.
This patch has the ping processing code kick off a recv
tmo check when getting a nop in response to our ping.

[SCSI] libiscsi regression in 2.6.25: fix nop timer handling
The following patch fixes a bug in the iscsi nop processing.
The target sends iscsi nops to ping the initiator and the
initiator has to send nops to reply and can send nops to
ping the target.
In 2.6.25 we moved the nop processing to the kernel to handle
problems when the userspace daemon is not up, but the target
is pinging us, and to handle when scsi commands timeout, but
the transport may be the cause (we can send a nop to check
the transport). When we added this code we added a bug where
if the transport timer wakes at the exact same time we are supposed to check
for a nop timeout we drop the session instead of checking the transport.
This patch checks if a iscsi ping is outstanding and if the ping has
timed out, to determine if we need to signal a connection problem.

semaphore: fix

| Generic semaphore implementation
|
| After I manually reverted the patch against 2.6.26-rc1 while fixing
| lots of conflicts/errors, aim7 regression became less than 2%.
i reproduced the AIM7 workload and can confirm Yanmin's findings that
-.26-rc1 regresses over .25 - by over 67% here.
Looking at the workload i found and fixed what i believe to be the real
bug causing the AIM7 regression: it was inefficient wakeup / scheduling
/ locking behavior of the new generic semaphore code, causing suboptimal
performance.
The problem comes from the following code. The new semaphore code does
this on down():
the fastpath looks good and obvious, but note the following property of
the contended path: if there's a task on the ->wait_list, the up() of
the current owner will "pass over" ownership to that waiting task, in a
wake-one manner, via the waiter->up flag and by removing the waiter from
the wait list.
That is all and fine in principle, but as implemented in
kernel/semaphore.c it also creates a nasty, hidden source of contention!
The contention comes from the following property of the new semaphore
code: the new owner owns the semaphore exclusively, even if it is not
running yet.
So if the old owner, even if just a few instructions later, does a
down() [lock_kernel()] again, it will be blocked and will have to wait
on the new owner to eventually be scheduled (possibly on another CPU)!
Or if another task gets to lock_kernel() sooner than the "new owner"
scheduled, it will be blocked unnecessarily and for a very long time
when there are 2000 tasks running.
I.e. the implementation of the new semaphores code does wake-one and
lock ownership in a very restrictive way - it does not allow
opportunistic re-locking of the lock at all and keeps the scheduler from
picking task order intelligently.
This kind of scheduling, with 2000 AIM7 processes running, creates awful
cross-scheduling between those 2000 tasks, causes reduced parallelism, a
throttled runqueue length and a lot of idle time. With increasing number
of CPUs it causes an exponentially worse behavior in AIM7, as the chance
for a newly woken new-owner task to actually run anytime soon is less
and less likely.
Note that it takes just a tiny bit of contention for the 'new-semaphore
catastrophy' to happen: the wakeup latencies get added to whatever small
contention there is, and quickly snowball out of control!
I believe Yanmin's findings and numbers support this analysis too.
The best fix for this problem is to use the same scheduling logic that
the kernel/mutex.c code uses: keep the wake-one behavior (that is OK and
wanted because we do not want to over-schedule), but also allow
opportunistic locking of the lock even if a wakee is already "in
flight".
The patch below implements this new logic. With this patch applied the
AIM7 regression is largely fixed on my quad testbox:
i.e. a 67% speedup. We are now back to within 1% of the v2.6.25
performance levels and have zero idle time during the test, as expected.
Btw., interactivity also improved dramatically with the fix - for
example console-switching became almost instantaneous during this
workload (which after all is running 2000 tasks at once!), without the
patch it was stuck for a minute at times.
There's another nice side-effect of this speedup patch, the new generic
semaphore code got even smaller:
text data bss dec hex filename
1241 0 0 1241 4d9 semaphore.o.before
1207 0 0 1207 4b7 semaphore.o.after
(because the waiter.up complication got removed.)
Longer-term we should look into using the mutex code for the generic
semaphore code as well - but i's not easy due to legacies and it's
outside of the scope of v2.6.26 and outside the scope of this patch as
well.

netns: Fix arbitrary net_device-s corruptions on net_ns stop.
When a net namespace is destroyed, some devices (those, not killed
on ns stop explicitly) are moved back to init_net.
The problem, is that this net_ns change has one point of failure -
the __dev_alloc_name() may be called if a name collision occurs (and
this is easy to trigger). This allocator performs a likely-to-fail
GFP_ATOMIC allocation to find a suitable number. Other possible
conditions that may cause error (for device being ns local or not
registered) are always false in this case.
So, when this call fails, the device is unregistered. But this is
*not* the right thing to do, since after this the device may be
released (and kfree-ed) improperly. E. g. bridges require more
actions (sysfs update, timer disarming, etc.), some other devices
want to remove their private areas from lists, etc.
I. e. arbitrary use-after-free cases may occur.
The proposed fix is the following: since the only reason for the
dev_change_net_namespace to fail is the name generation, we may
give it a unique fall-back name w/o %d-s in it - the dev<ifindex>
one, since ifindexes are still unique.
So make this change, raise the failure-case printk loglevel to
EMERG and replace the unregister_netdevice call with BUG().

tcp FRTO: SACK variant is errorneously used with NewReno
Note: there's actually another bug in FRTO's SACK variant, which
is the causing failure in NewReno case because of the error
that's fixed here. I'll fix the SACK case separately (it's
a separate bug really, though related, but in order to fix that
I need to audit tp->snd_nxt usage a bit).
There were two places where SACK variant of FRTO is getting
incorrectly used even if SACK wasn't negotiated by the TCP flow.
This leads to incorrect setting of frto_highmark with NewReno
if a previous recovery was interrupted by another RTO.
An eventual fallback to conventional recovery then incorrectly
considers one or couple of segments as forward transmissions
though they weren't, which then are not LOST marked during
fallback making them "non-retransmittable" until the next RTO.
In a bad case, those segments are really lost and are the only
one left in the window. Thus TCP needs another RTO to continue.
The next FRTO, however, could again repeat the same events
making the progress of the TCP flow extremely slow.
In order for these events to occur at all, FRTO must occur
again in FRTOs step 3 while the key segments must be lost as
well, which is not too likely in practice. It seems to most
frequently with some small devices such as network printers
that *seem* to accept TCP segments only in-order. In cases
were key segments weren't lost, things get automatically
resolved because those wrongly marked segments don't need to be
retransmitted in order to continue.
I found a reproducer after digging up relevant reports (few
reports in total, none at netdev or lkml I know of), some
cases seemed to indicate middlebox issues which seems now
to be a false assumption some people had made. Bugzilla
#10063 _might_ be related. Damon L. Chesser <damon@damtek.com>
had a reproducable case and was kind enough to tcpdump it
for me. With the tcpdump log it was quite trivial to figure
out.

[POWERPC] spufs: don't requeue victim contex in find_victim if it's not in spu_run
We should not requeue the victim context in find_victim if the owner is
not in spu_run. It's first not needed because leaving the context on
the spu is an optimization and second is harmful because it means the
owner could re-enter spu_run when the context is on the runqueue and
trip the BUG_ON in __spu_update_sched_info.

sh: no high level trigger on some sh3 cpus
The processor models sh7706, sh7707 and sh7709 don't support high
level trigger sense configuration. And the intc code looks like
crap these days so what's the difference.

Clean up the intc tables by removing unneeded #ifdefs. The vector

having unsupported bitfields listed is ok as long as the vector
is excluded from the list.

This patch unifies the sh3 external irq pin code. It buys us some

this change is irq sense selection support for all sh3 processors.

sparc: Fix SA_ONSTACK signal handling.
We need to be more liberal about the alignment of the buffer given to
us by sigaltstack(). The user should not need to be mindful of all of
the alignment constraints we have for the stack frame.
This mirrors how we handle this situation in clone() as well.
Also, we align the stack even in non-SA_ONSTACK cases so that signals
due to bad stack alignment can be delivered properly. This makes such
errors easier to debug and recover from.
Finally, add the sanity check x86 has to make sure we won't overflow
the signal stack.
This fixes glibc testcases nptl/tst-cancel20.c and
nptl/tst-cancelx20.c
