The intent here is to check the "mfrpl->mapped_page_list" allocation.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

If cxgb3 calls the iw_cxgb3 t3cclient remove function due to a device
removal event, then the iwch device must be marked with CXIO_ERROR_FATAL

Steve Wise e998f245c4 RDMA/cxgb3: Doorbell overflow avoidance and recovery
T3 hardware doorbell FIFO overflows can cause application stalls due
to lost doorbell ring events.  This has been seen when running large
NP IMB alltoall MPI jobs.  The T3 hardware supports an xon/xoff-type
flow control mechanism to help avoid overflowing the HW doorbell FIFO.

This patch uses these interrupts to disable RDMA QP doorbell rings
when we near an overflow condition, and then turn them back on (and
ring all the active QP doorbells) when when the doorbell FIFO empties
out.  In addition if an doorbell ring is dropped by the hardware, the
code will now recover.

Design:

cxgb3:
- enable these DB interrupts
- in the interrupt handler, schedule work tasks to call the ULPs event
  handlers with the new events.
- ring all the qset txqs when an overflow is detected.

iw_cxgb3:
- disable db ringing on all active qps when we get the DB_FULL event
- enable db ringing on all active qps and ring all active dbs when we get
  the DB_EMPTY event
- On DB_DROP event:
       - disable db rings in the event handler
       - delay-schedule a work task which rings and enables the dbs on
         all active qps.
- in post_send and post_recv logic, don't ring the db if it's disabled.

Stefani Seibold c1e13f2567 kfifo: move out spinlock
Move the pointer to the spinlock out of struct kfifo.  Most users in
tree do not actually use a spinlock, so the few exceptions now have to
call kfifo_{get,put}_locked, which takes an extra argument to a
spinlock.

Stefani Seibold 4546548789 kfifo: move struct kfifo in place
This is a new generic kernel FIFO implementation.

The current kernel fifo API is not very widely used, because it has to
many constrains.  Only 17 files in the current 2.6.31-rc5 used it.
FIFO's are like list's a very basic thing and a kfifo API which handles
the most use case would save a lot of development time and memory
resources.

I think this are the reasons why kfifo is not in use:

 - The API is to simple, important functions are missing
 - A fifo can be only allocated dynamically
 - There is a requirement of a spinlock whether you need it or not
 - There is no support for data records inside a fifo

So I decided to extend the kfifo in a more generic way without blowing up
the API to much.  The new API has the following benefits:

 - Generic usage: For kernel internal use and/or device driver.
 - Provide an API for the most use case.
 - Slim API: The whole API provides 25 functions.
 - Linux style habit.
 - DECLARE_KFIFO, DEFINE_KFIFO and INIT_KFIFO Macros
 - Direct copy_to_user from the fifo and copy_from_user into the fifo.
 - The kfifo itself is an in place member of the using data structure, this save an
   indirection access and does not waste the kernel allocator.
 - Lockless access: if only one reader and one writer is active on the fifo,
   which is the common use case, no additional locking is necessary.
 - Remove spinlock - give the user the freedom of choice what kind of locking to use if
   one is required.
 - Ability to handle records. Three type of records are supported:
   - Variable length records between 0-255 bytes, with a record size
     field of 1 bytes.
   - Variable length records between 0-65535 bytes, with a record size
     field of 2 bytes.
   - Fixed size records, which no record size field.
 - Preserve memory resource.
 - Performance!
 - Easy to use!

This patch:

Since most users want to have the kfifo as part of another object,
reorganize the code to allow including struct kfifo in another data
structure.  This requires changing the kfifo_alloc and kfifo_init
prototypes so that we pass an existing kfifo pointer into them.  This
patch changes the implementation and all existing users.

Always set bad_wr when an immediate error is detected.  Return ENOMEM
for queue full instead of EINVAL to match other drivers.
