Currently we schedule to the leftmost task in the runqueue. When the
runtimes are very short because of some server/client ping-pong,
especially in over-saturated workloads, this will cycle through all
tasks trashing the cache.
Reduce cache trashing by keeping dependent tasks together by running
newly woken tasks first. However, by not running the leftmost task first
we could starve tasks because the wakee can gain unlimited runtime.
Therefore we only run the wakee if its within a small
(wakeup_granularity) window of the leftmost task. This preserves
fairness, but does alternate server/client task groups.

Current min_vruntime tracking is incorrect and will cause serious
problems when we don't run the leftmost task for some reason.
min_vruntime does two things; 1) it's used to determine a forward
direction when the u64 vruntime wraps, 2) it's used to track the
leftmost vruntime to position newly enqueued tasks from.
The current logic advances min_vruntime whenever the current task's
vruntime advance. Because the current task may pass the leftmost task
still waiting we're failing the second goal. This causes new tasks to be
placed too far ahead and thus penalizes their runtime.
Fix this by making min_vruntime the min_vruntime of the waiting tasks by
tracking it in enqueue/dequeue, and compare against current's vruntime
to obtain the absolute minimum when placing new tasks.

Fix a hard to trigger crash seen in the -rt kernel that also affects
the vanilla scheduler.
There is a race condition between schedule() and some dequeue/enqueue
functions; rt_mutex_setprio(), __setscheduler() and sched_move_task().
When scheduling to idle, idle_balance() is called to pull tasks from
other busy processor. It might drop the rq lock. It means that those 3
functions encounter on_rq=0 and running=1. The current task should be
put when running.
Here is a possible scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
| schedule()
| ->deactivate_task()
| ->idle_balance()
| -->load_balance_newidle()
rt_mutex_setprio() |
| --->double_lock_balance()
*get lock *rel lock
* on_rq=0, ruuning=1 |
* sched_class is changed |
*rel lock *get lock
: |
:
->put_prev_task_rt()
->pick_next_task_fair()
=> panic
The current process of CPU1(P1) is scheduling. Deactivated P1, and the
scheduler looks for another process on other CPU's runqueue because CPU1
will be idle. idle_balance(), load_balance_newidle() and
double_lock_balance() are called and double_lock_balance() could drop
the rq lock. On the other hand, CPU0 is trying to boost the priority of
P1. The result of boosting only P1's prio and sched_class are changed to
RT. The sched entities of P1 and P1's group are never put. It makes
cfs_rq invalid, because the cfs_rq has curr and no leaf, but
pick_next_task_fair() is called, then the kernel panics.

This bug was always here, but before my commit 6fa02839bf
("recheck for secure ports in fh_verify"), it could only be triggered by
failure of a kmalloc(). After that commit it could be triggered by a
client making a request from a non-reserved port for access to an export
marked "secure". (Exports are "secure" by default.)
The result is a struct svc_export with a reference count one too low,
resulting in likely oopses next time the export is accessed.
The reference counting here is not straightforward; a later patch will
clean up fh_verify().

Remove some less necessary information, point out that video1394 and

Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
Per the SBP-2 specification, all SBP-2 target devices must have a BUSY_TIMEOUT
register. Per the 1394-1995 specification, the retry_limt portion of the
register should be set to 0x0 initially, and set on the target by a logged in
initiator (i.e., a Linux host w/firewire controller(s)).
Well, as it turns out, lots of devices these days have actually moved on to
starting to implement SBP-3 compliance, which says that retry_limit should
default to 0xf instead (yes, SBP-3 stomps directly on 1394-1995, oops).
Prior to this change, the firewire driver stack didn't touch retry_limit, and
any SBP-3 compliant device worked fine, while SBP-2 compliant ones were unable
to retransmit when the host returned an ack_busy_X, which resulted in stalled
out I/O, eventually causing the SCSI layer to give up and offline the device.
The simple fix is for us to set retry_limit to 0xf in the register for all
devices (which actually matches what the old ieee1394 stack did).
Prior to this change, a hard disk behind an SBP-2 Prolific PL-3507 bridge chip
would routinely encounter buffer I/O errors and wind up offlined by the SCSI
layer. With this change, I've encountered zero I/O failures moving tens of GB
of data around.

SPI controller drivers return number of bytes actually transfered from
bitbang->txrx_bufs() method. This updates handling of short transfers (where
the transfer size is less than requested):
- Even zero byte short transfers should report errors;
- Include short transfers in the total of transferred bytes;
- Use EREMOTEIO (like USB) not EMSGSIZE to report short transfers
Short transfers don't normally mean invalid message sizes, but if the
underlying controller driver needs to use EMSGSIZE it can still do so.

Smackfs write() implementation does not put a higher bound on the number of
bytes to copy from user-space. This may lead to a DOS attack if a malicious

Assure that given `count' is exactly the length needed for a /smack/load rule.
In case of /smack/cipso where the length is relative, assure that `count'
