Jan Blunck ac748a09fc Make set_fs_{root,pwd} take a struct path
In nearly all cases the set_fs_{root,pwd}() calls work on a struct
path. Change the function to reflect this and use path_get() here.

Jan Blunck 4ac9137858 Embed a struct path into struct nameidata instead of nd->{dentry,mnt}
This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.

Together with the other patches of this series
- it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
  <dentry,vfsmount> pairs
- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
  struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
- it reduces the overall code size:

without patch series:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
5321639  858418  715768 6895825  6938d1 vmlinux

with patch series:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
5320026  858418  715768 6894212  693284 vmlinux

This patch:

Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.

Christoph Lameter 331dc558fa slub: Support 4k kmallocs again to compensate for page allocator slowness
Currently we hand off PAGE_SIZEd kmallocs to the page allocator in the
mistaken belief that the page allocator can handle these allocations
effectively. However, measurements indicate a minimum slowdown by the
factor of 8 (and that is only SMP, NUMA is much worse) vs the slub fastpath
which causes regressions in tbench.

Increase the number of kmalloc caches by one so that we again handle 4k
kmallocs directly from slub. 4k page buffering for the page allocator
will be performed by slub like done by slab.

At some point the page allocator fastpath should be fixed. A lot of the kernel
would benefit from a faster ability to allocate a single page. If that is
done then the 4k allocs may again be forwarded to the page allocator and this
patch could be reverted.

Mathieu Desnoyers b2e3e658b3 Linux Kernel Markers: create modpost file
This adds some new magic in the MODPOST phase for CONFIG_MARKERS.  Analogous
to the Module.symvers file, the build will now write a Module.markers file
when CONFIG_MARKERS=y is set.  This file lists the name, defining module, and
format string of each marker, separated by \t characters.  This simple text
file can be used by offline build procedures for instrumentation code,
analogous to how System.map and Module.symvers can be useful to have for
kernels other than the one you are running right now.

The strings are made easy to extract by having the __trace_mark macro define
the name and format together in a single array called __mstrtab_* in the
__markers_strings section.  This is straightforward and reliable as long as
the marker structs are always defined by this macro.  It is an unreasonable
amount of hairy work to extract the string pointers from the __markers section
structs, which entails handling a relocation type for every machine under the
sun.

Mathieu Desnoyers fb40bd78b0 Linux Kernel Markers: support multiple probes
RCU style multiple probes support for the Linux Kernel Markers.  Common case
(one probe) is still fast and does not require dynamic allocation or a
supplementary pointer dereference on the fast path.

- Move preempt disable from the marker site to the callback.

Since we now have an internal callback, move the preempt disable/enable to the
callback instead of the marker site.

Since the callback change is done asynchronously (passing from a handler that
supports arguments to a handler that does not setup the arguments is no
arguments are passed), we can safely update it even if it is outside the
preempt disable section.

- Move probe arm to probe connection. Now, a connected probe is automatically
  armed.

Remove MARK_MAX_FORMAT_LEN, unused.

This patch modifies the Linux Kernel Markers API : it removes the probe
"arm/disarm" and changes the probe function prototype : it now expects a
va_list * instead of a "...".

If we want to have more than one probe connected to a marker at a given
time (LTTng, or blktrace, ssytemtap) then we need this patch. Without it,
connecting a second probe handler to a marker will fail.

It allow us, for instance, to do interesting combinations :

Do standard tracing with LTTng and, eventually, to compute statistics
with SystemTAP, or to have a special trigger on an event that would call
a systemtap script which would stop flight recorder tracing.

On alpha, ia64 and ppc64 only relocations to local data can go into

param_set/get are local functions.

KOSAKI Motohiro 31f1de46b9 mempolicy: silently restrict nodemask to allowed nodes
Kosaki Motohito noted that "numactl --interleave=all ..." failed in the
presence of memoryless nodes.  This patch attempts to fix that problem.

Some background:

numactl --interleave=all calls set_mempolicy(2) with a fully populated
[out to MAXNUMNODES] nodemask.  set_mempolicy() [in do_set_mempolicy()]
calls contextualize_policy() which requires that the nodemask be a
subset of the current task's mems_allowed; else EINVAL will be returned.

A task's mems_allowed will always be a subset of node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY]
i.e., nodes with memory.  So, a fully populated nodemask will be
declared invalid if it includes memoryless nodes.

  NOTE:  the same thing will occur when running in a cpuset
         with restricted mem_allowed--for the same reason:
         node mask contains dis-allowed nodes.

mbind(2), on the other hand, just masks off any nodes in the nodemask
that are not included in the caller's mems_allowed.

In each case [mbind() and set_mempolicy()], mpol_check_policy() will
complain [again, resulting in EINVAL] if the nodemask contains any
memoryless nodes.  This is somewhat redundant as mpol_new() will remove
memoryless nodes for interleave policy, as will bind_zonelist()--called
by mpol_new() for BIND policy.

Proposed fix:

1) modify contextualize_policy logic to:
   a) remember whether the incoming node mask is empty.
   b) if not, restrict the nodemask to allowed nodes, as is
      currently done in-line for mbind().  This guarantees
      that the resulting mask includes only nodes with memory.

      NOTE:  this is a [benign, IMO] change in behavior for
             set_mempolicy().  Dis-allowed nodes will be
             silently ignored, rather than returning an error.

   c) fold this code into mpol_check_policy(), replace 2 calls to
      contextualize_policy() to call mpol_check_policy() directly
      and remove contextualize_policy().

2) In existing mpol_check_policy() logic, after "contextualization":
   a) MPOL_DEFAULT:  require that in coming mask "was_empty"
   b) MPOL_{BIND|INTERLEAVE}:  require that contextualized nodemask
      contains at least one node.
   c) add a case for MPOL_PREFERRED:  if in coming was not empty
      and resulting mask IS empty, user specified invalid nodes.
      Return EINVAL.
   c) remove the now redundant check for memoryless nodes

3) remove the now redundant masking of policy nodes for interleave
   policy from mpol_new().

4) Now that mpol_check_policy() contextualizes the nodemask, remove
   the in-line nodes_and() from sys_mbind().  I believe that this
   restores mbind() to the behavior before the memoryless-nodes
   patch series.  E.g., we'll no longer treat an invalid nodemask
   with MPOL_PREFERRED as local allocation.

[ Patch history:

  v1 -> v2:
   - Communicate whether or not incoming node mask was empty to
     mpol_check_policy() for better error checking.
   - As suggested by David Rientjes, remove the now unused
     cpuset_nodes_subset_current_mems_allowed() from cpuset.h

  v2 -> v3:
   - As suggested by Kosaki Motohito, fold the "contextualization"
     of policy nodemask into mpol_check_policy().  Looks a little
     cleaner. ]

Jiri Kosina 68a1f2cc86 HID: fix processing of event quirks
The old code (before move) stopped further processing of the
event after it has been already processed by the quirk handler.

The new code didn't propagate the return value properly, and
therefore the processing always proceeded, which was wrong.

This patch fixes it. Pointed out in kernel.org bugzilla #9842

Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz 395d8ef5be ide-disk: fix flush requests (take 2)
commit 813a0eb233
Author: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
Date:   Fri Jan 25 22:17:10 2008 +0100

    ide: switch idedisk_prepare_flush() to use REQ_TYPE_ATA_TASKFILE requests

...

broke flush requests.

Allocating IDE command structure on the stack for flush requests is not
a very brilliant idea:

- idedisk_prepare_flush() only prepares the request and it doesn't wait
  for it to be completed

- there are can be multiple flush requests queued in the queue

Fix the problem (per hints from James Bottomley) by:
- dynamically allocating ide_task_t instance using kmalloc(..., GFP_ATOMIC)
- adding new taskfile flag (IDE_TFLAG_DYN)
- calling kfree() in ide_end_drive_command() if IDE_TFLAG_DYN is set
  (while at it rename 'args' to 'task' and fix whitespace damage)

[ This will be fixed properly before 2.6.25 but this bug is rather
  critical and the proper solution requires some more work + testing. ]

Thanks to Sebastian Siewior and Christoph Hellwig for reporting the
problem and testing patches (extra thanks to Sebastian for bisecting
it to the guilty commmit).

This is a void function attempting to return the return value from
another void function, which seems harmless but extremely weird, and
apparently makes some compilers complain.

Oleg Nesterov 080344b988 hrtimer: fix *rmtp handling in hrtimer_nanosleep()
Spotted by Pavel Emelyanov and Alexey Dobriyan.

hrtimer_nanosleep() sets restart_block->arg1 = rmtp, but this rmtp points to
the local variable which lives in the caller's stack frame. This means that
if sys_restart_syscall() actually happens and it is interrupted as well, we
don't update the user-space variable, but write into the already dead stack
frame.

Introduced by commit 04c227140f
hrtimer: Rework hrtimer_nanosleep to make sys_compat_nanosleep easier

Change the callers to pass "__user *rmtp" to hrtimer_nanosleep(), and change
hrtimer_nanosleep() to use copy_to_user() to actually update *rmtp.

Small problem remains. man 2 nanosleep states that *rtmp should be written if
nanosleep() was interrupted (it says nothing whether it is OK to update *rmtp
if nanosleep returns 0), but (with or without this patch) we can dirty *rem
even if nanosleep() returns 0.

NOTE: this patch doesn't change compat_sys_nanosleep(), because it has other
bugs. Fixed by the next patch.

Theodore Tso 469108ff3d ext4: Add new "development flag" to the ext4 filesystem
This flag is simply a generic "this is a crash/burn test filesystem"
marker.  If it is set, then filesystem code which is "in development"
will be allowed to mount the filesystem.  Filesystem code which is not
considered ready for prime-time will check for this flag, and if it is
not set, it will refuse to touch the filesystem.

As we start rolling ext4 out to distro's like Fedora, et. al, this makes
it less likely that a user might accidentally start using ext4 on a
production filesystem; a bad thing, since that will essentially make it
be unfsckable until e2fsprogs catches up.

mm_cgroup() is exclusively used to test whether an mm's mem_cgroup pointer

just do the test itself in a new macro:

returns non-zero if the mm's mem_cgroup points to cgroup.  Otherwise it
returns zero.

Does it ever make sense to ask "is this pte a swap entry?" on a machine
with no MMU?  Presumably this also means it has no ptes too, right?  In
which case, it's better to comment the whole function out.  Then when
someone tries to ask the above meaningless question, they get a compile
error rather than a meaningless answer.

Jack Morgenstein ea54b10c77 IB/mlx4: Use multiple WQ blocks to post smaller send WQEs
ConnectX HCA supports shrinking WQEs, so that a single work request
can be made of multiple units of wqe_shift.  This way, WRs can differ
in size, and do not have to be a power of 2 in size, saving memory and
speeding up send WR posting.  Unfortunately, if we do this then the
wqe_index field in CQEs can't be used to look up the WR ID anymore, so
our implementation does this only if selective signaling is off.

Further, on 32-bit platforms, we can't use vmap() to make the QP
buffer virtually contigious. Thus we have to use constant-sized WRs to
make sure a WR is always fully within a single page-sized chunk.

Finally, we use WRs with the NOP opcode to avoid wrapping around the
queue buffer in the middle of posting a WR, and we set the
NoErrorCompletion bit to avoid getting completions with error for NOP
WRs.  However, NEC is only supported starting with firmware 2.2.232,
so we use constant-sized WRs for older firmware.  And, since MLX QPs
only support SEND, we use constant-sized WRs in this case.

When stamping during NOP posting, do stamping following setting of the
NOP WQE valid bit.

Martin Schwidefsky 2f569afd9c CONFIG_HIGHPTE vs. sub-page page tables.
Background: I've implemented 1K/2K page tables for s390.  These sub-page
page tables are required to properly support the s390 virtualization
instruction with KVM.  The SIE instruction requires that the page tables
have 256 page table entries (pte) followed by 256 page status table entries
(pgste).  The pgstes are only required if the process is using the SIE
instruction.  The pgstes are updated by the hardware and by the hypervisor
for a number of reasons, one of them is dirty and reference bit tracking.
To avoid wasting memory the standard pte table allocation should return
1K/2K (31/64 bit) and 2K/4K if the process is using SIE.

Problem: Page size on s390 is 4K, page table size is 1K or 2K.  That means
the s390 version for pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a struct
page.  Trouble is that with the CONFIG_HIGHPTE feature on x86 pte_alloc_one
cannot return a pointer to a pte either, since that would require more than
32 bit for the return value of pte_alloc_one (and the pte * would not be
accessible since its not kmapped).

Solution: The only solution I found to this dilemma is a new typedef: a
pgtable_t.  For s390 pgtable_t will be a (pte *) - to be introduced with a
later patch.  For everybody else it will be a (struct page *).  The
additional problem with the initialization of the ptl lock and the
NR_PAGETABLE accounting is solved with a constructor pgtable_page_ctor and
a destructor pgtable_page_dtor.  The page table allocation and free
functions need to call these two whenever a page table page is allocated or
freed.  pmd_populate will get a pgtable_t instead of a struct page pointer.
 To get the pgtable_t back from a pmd entry that has been installed with
pmd_populate a new function pmd_pgtable is added.  It replaces the pmd_page
call in free_pte_range and apply_to_pte_range.

Ralf Baechle 46f4f8f665 IRQ_NOPROBE helper functions
Probing non-ISA interrupts using the handle_percpu_irq as their handle_irq
method may crash the system because handle_percpu_irq does not check
IRQ_WAITING.  This for example hits the MIPS Qemu configuration.

This patch provides two helper functions set_irq_noprobe and set_irq_probe to
set rsp.  clear the IRQ_NOPROBE flag.  The only current caller is MIPS code
but this really belongs into generic code.

As an aside, interrupt probing these days has become a mostly obsolete if not
dangerous art.  I think Linux interrupts should be changed to default to
non-probing but that's subject of this patch.

succesive invalid char and converts prefix part to a numeric although input
is acctually invalid.

This patch tries to fix the aforementioned issues and implements
strict_strtox serial functions, kernel/params.c uses them to strictly
validate input, so module params will reject such values as 0x1234xxxx and
returns an error:

write error: Invalid argument

Any modules which export numeric sysfs node can use strict_strtox instead of
simple_strtox to reject any invalid input.

Here are some test results:

Wim Van Sebroeck b4bd7d5945 SMBIOS/DMI: add type 41 = Onboard Devices Extended Information
From version 2.6 of the SMBIOS standard, type 10 (On Board Devices
Information) becomes obsolete.  The reason for this is that no further
fields can be added to this structure without adversely affecting existing
software's ability to properly parse the data.

Therefore type 41 (Onboard Devices Extended Information) was added.
The structure is as follows:

struct smbios_type_41 {
	u8 type;
	u8 length;
	u16 handle;
	u8 reference_designation_string;
	u8 device_type;		/* same device type as in type 10 */
	u8 device_type_instance;
	u16 segment_group_number;
	u8 bus_number;
	u8 device_function_number;
};

This patchset moves le*_add_cpu and be*_add_cpu functions from OCFS2 to core
header (1st), converts ext3 filesystem to this API (2nd) and replaces XFS
different named functions with new ones (3rd).

There are many places where these functions will be useful.  Just look at:
grep -r 'cpu_to_[ble12346]*([ble12346]*_to_cpu.*[-+]' linux-src/ Patch for
ext3 is an example how conversions will probably look like.

This patch:

- move inline functions which add native byte order variable to
  little/big endian variable to core header
  * le16_add_cpu(__le16 *var, u16 val)
  * le32_add_cpu(__le32 *var, u32 val)
  * le64_add_cpu(__le64 *var, u64 val)
  * be32_add_cpu(__be32 *var, u32 val)

  * be16_add_cpu(__be16 *var, u16 val)
  * be64_add_cpu(__be64 *var, u64 val)

David Howells 7fa3031500 aout: suppress A.OUT library support if !CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT
Suppress A.OUT library support if CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT is not set.

Not all architectures support the A.OUT binfmt, so the ELF binfmt should not
be permitted to go looking for A.OUT libraries to load in such a case.  Not
only that, but under such conditions A.OUT core dumps are not produced either.

To make this work, this patch also does the following:

 (1) Makes the existence of the contents of linux/a.out.h contingent on
     CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT.

 (2) Renames dump_thread() to aout_dump_thread() as it's only called by A.OUT
     core dumping code.

 (3) Moves aout_dump_thread() into asm/a.out-core.h and makes it inline.  This
     is then included only where needed.  This means that this bit of arch
     code will be stored in the appropriate A.OUT binfmt module rather than
     the core kernel.

 (4) Drops A.OUT support for Blackfin (according to Mike Frysinger it's not
     needed) and FRV.

This patch depends on the previous patch to move STACK_TOP[_MAX] out of
asm/a.out.h and into asm/processor.h as they're required whether or not A.OUT
format is available.

There is a window when de_thread() switches the leader and drops
tasklist_lock.  In that window do_each_pid_task(PIDTYPE_PID) finds both new
and old leaders.

The problem is pretty much theoretical and probably can be ignored.  Currently
the only users of do_each_pid_task(PIDTYPE_PID) are send_sigio/send_sigurg, so
they can send the signal to the same process twice.

Eric W. Biederman 44c4e1b258 pid: Extend/Fix pid_vnr
pid_vnr returns the user space pid with respect to the pid namespace the
struct pid was allocated in.  What we want before we return a pid to user
space is the user space pid with respect to the pid namespace of current.

pid_vnr is a very nice optimization but because it isn't quite what we want
it is easy to use pid_vnr at times when we aren't certain the struct pid
was allocated in our pid namespace.

Currently this describes at least tiocgpgrp and tiocgsid in ttyio.c the
parent process reported in the core dumps and the parent process in
get_signal_to_deliver.

So unless the performance impact is huge having an interface that does what
we want instead of always what we want should be much more reliable and
much less error prone.

Oleg Nesterov d12619b5ff fix group stop with exit race
do_signal_stop() counts all sub-thread and sets ->group_stop_count
accordingly.  Every thread should decrement ->group_stop_count and stop,
the last one should notify the parent.

However a sub-thread can exit before it notices the signal_pending(), or it
may be somewhere in do_exit() already.  In that case the group stop never
finishes properly.

Note: this is a minimal fix, we can add some optimizations later.  Say we
can return quickly if thread_group_empty().  Also, we can move some signal
related code from exit_notify() to exit_signals().

Since the patch

	"Fix ptrace_attach()/ptrace_traceme()/de_thread() race"
	commit f5b40e363a

we set PT_ATTACHED and change child->parent "atomically" wrt task_list lock.

This means we can remove the checks like "PT_ATTACHED && ->parent != ptracer"
which were needed to catch the "ptrace attach is in progress" case.  We can
also remove the flag itself since nobody else uses it.

Pierre Peiffer 01b8b07a5d IPC: consolidate sem_exit_ns(), msg_exit_ns() and shm_exit_ns()
sem_exit_ns(), msg_exit_ns() and shm_exit_ns() are all called when an
ipc_namespace is released to free all ipcs of each type.  But in fact, they
do the same thing: they loop around all ipcs to free them individually by
calling a specific routine.

This patch proposes to consolidate this by introducing a common function,
free_ipcs(), that do the job.  The specific routine to call on each
individual ipcs is passed as parameter.  For this, these ipc-specific
'free' routines are reworked to take a generic 'struct ipc_perm' as
parameter.

Pierre Peiffer ed2ddbf88c IPC: make struct ipc_ids static in ipc_namespace
Each ipc_namespace contains a table of 3 pointers to struct ipc_ids (3 for
msg, sem and shm, structure used to store all ipcs) These 'struct ipc_ids'
are dynamically allocated for each icp_namespace as the ipc_namespace
itself (for the init namespace, they are initialized with pointers to
static variables instead)

It is so for historical reason: in fact, before the use of idr to store the
ipcs, the ipcs were stored in tables of variable length, depending of the
maximum number of ipc allowed.  Now, these 'struct ipc_ids' have a fixed
size.  As they are allocated in any cases for each new ipc_namespace, there
is no gain of memory in having them allocated separately of the struct
ipc_namespace.

This patch proposes to make this table static in the struct ipc_namespace.
Thus, we can allocate all in once and get rid of all the code needed to
allocate and free these ipc_ids separately.

Alexey Dobriyan 2d3a4e3666 proc: fix ->open'less usage due to ->proc_fops flip
Typical PDE creation code looks like:

	pde = create_proc_entry("foo", 0, NULL);
	if (pde)
		pde->proc_fops = &foo_proc_fops;

Notice that PDE is first created, only then ->proc_fops is set up to
final value. This is a problem because right after creation
a) PDE is fully visible in /proc , and
b) ->proc_fops are proc_file_operations which do not have ->open callback. So, it's
   possible to ->read without ->open (see one class of oopses below).

The fix is new API called proc_create() which makes sure ->proc_fops are
set up before gluing PDE to main tree. Typical new code looks like:

	pde = proc_create("foo", 0, NULL, &foo_proc_fops);
	if (!pde)
		return -ENOMEM;

Fix most networking users for a start.

In the long run, create_proc_entry() for regular files will go.

Pavel Emelyanov ae5e1b22f1 namespaces: move the IPC namespace under IPC_NS option
Currently the IPC namespace management code is spread over the ipc/*.c files.
I moved this code into ipc/namespace.c file which is compiled out when needed.

The linux/ipc_namespace.h file is used to store the prototypes of the
functions in namespace.c and the stubs for NAMESPACES=n case.  This is done
so, because the stub for copy_ipc_namespace requires the knowledge of the
CLONE_NEWIPC flag, which is in sched.h.  But the linux/ipc.h file itself in
included into many many .c files via the sys.h->sem.h sequence so adding the
sched.h into it will make all these .c depend on sched.h which is not that
good.  On the other hand the knowledge about the namespaces stuff is required
in 4 .c files only.

Besides, this patch compiles out some auxiliary functions from ipc/sem.c,
msg.c and shm.c files.  It turned out that moving these functions into
namespaces.c is not that easy because they use many other calls and macros
from the original file.  Moving them would make this patch complicated.  On
the other hand all these functions can be consolidated, so I will send a
separate patch doing this a bit later.

Christoph Lameter 8ff12cfc00 SLUB: Support for performance statistics
The statistics provided here allow the monitoring of allocator behavior but
at the cost of some (minimal) loss of performance. Counters are placed in
SLUB's per cpu data structure. The per cpu structure may be extended by the
statistics to grow larger than one cacheline which will increase the cache
footprint of SLUB.

There is a compile option to enable/disable the inclusion of the runtime
statistics and its off by default.

The slabinfo tool is enhanced to support these statistics via two options:

-D 	Switches the line of information displayed for a slab from size
	mode to activity mode.

-A	Sorts the slabs displayed by activity. This allows the display of
	the slabs most important to the performance of a certain load.

-r	Report option will report detailed statistics on

Example (tbench load):

So the skbuff_fclone_cache is of highest importance for the tbench load.
Pretty high load on the 192 sized slab. Look for the aliases

slabinfo -a | grep 000192
:0000192     <- xfs_btree_cur filp kmalloc-192 uid_cache tw_sock_TCP
	request_sock_TCPv6 tw_sock_TCPv6 skbuff_head_cache xfs_ili

Likely skbuff_head_cache.


Looking into the statistics of the skbuff_fclone_cache is possible through

slabinfo skbuff_fclone_cache	->-r option implied if cache name is mentioned

Descriptions of the output:

Total:		The total number of allocation and frees that occurred for a
		slab

Fastpath:	The number of allocations/frees that used the fastpath.

Slowpath:	Other allocations

Page Alloc:	Number of calls to the page allocator as a result of slowpath
		processing

Add Partial:	Number of slabs added to the partial list through free or
		alloc (occurs during cpuslab flushes)

Remove Partial:	Number of slabs removed from the partial list as a result of
		allocations retrieving a partial slab or by a free freeing
		the last object of a slab.

RemoteObj/Froz:	How many times were remotely freed object encountered when a
		slab was about to be deactivated. Frozen: How many times was
		free able to skip list processing because the slab was in use
		as the cpuslab of another processor.

Flushes:	Number of times the cpuslab was flushed on request
		(kmem_cache_shrink, may result from races in __slab_alloc)

Refill:		Number of times we were able to refill the cpuslab from
		remotely freed objects for the same slab.

Deactivate:	Statistics how slabs were deactivated. Shows how they were
		put onto the partial list.

In general fastpath is very good. Slowpath without partial list processing is
also desirable. Any touching of partial list uses node specific locks which
may potentially cause list lock contention.

Christoph Lameter 683d0baad3 SLUB: Use unique end pointer for each slab page.
We use a NULL pointer on freelists to signal that there are no more objects.
However the NULL pointers of all slabs match in contrast to the pointers to
the real objects which are in different ranges for different slab pages.

Change the end pointer to be a pointer to the first object and set bit 0.
Every slab will then have a different end pointer. This is necessary to ensure
that end markers can be matched to the source slab during cmpxchg_local.

Bring back the use of the mapping field by SLUB since we would otherwise have
to call a relatively expensive function page_address() in __slab_alloc().  Use
of the mapping field allows avoiding a call to page_address() in various other
functions as well.

There is no need to change the page_mapping() function since bit 0 is set on
the mapping as also for anonymous pages.  page_mapping(slab_page) will
therefore still return NULL although the mapping field is overloaded.

Tony Breeds 151db1fc23 Fix compilation of powerpc asm-offsets.c with old gcc
Commit ad7f71674a ("[POWERPC] Use a
sensible default for clock_getres() in the VDSO") corrected the clock
resolution reported by the VDSO clock_getres() but introduced another
problem in that older versions of gcc (gcc-4.0 and earlier) fail to
compile the new code in arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c.

This fixes it by introducing a new MONOTONIC_RES_NSEC define in the
generic code which is equivalent to KTIME_MONOTONIC_RES but is just an
integer constant, not a ktime union.

David Howells 12debc4248 iget: remove iget() and the read_inode() super op as being obsolete
Remove the old iget() call and the read_inode() superblock operation it uses
as these are really obsolete, and the use of read_inode() does not produce
proper error handling (no distinction between ENOMEM and EIO when marking an
inode bad).

Furthermore, this removes the temptation to use iget() to find an inode by
number in a filesystem from code outside that filesystem.

iget_locked() should be used instead.  A new function is added in an earlier
patch (iget_failed) that is to be called to mark an inode as bad, unlock it
and release it should the get routine fail.  Mark iget() and read_inode() as
being obsolete and remove references to them from the documentation.

Typically a filesystem will be modified such that the read_inode function
becomes an internal iget function, for example the following:

	void thingyfs_read_inode(struct inode *inode)
	{
		...
	}

would be changed into something like:

	struct inode *thingyfs_iget(struct super_block *sp, unsigned long ino)
	{
		struct inode *inode;
		int ret;

		inode = iget_locked(sb, ino);
		if (!inode)
			return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);
		if (!(inode->i_state & I_NEW))
			return inode;

		...
		unlock_new_inode(inode);
		return inode;
	error:
		iget_failed(inode);
		return ERR_PTR(ret);
	}

and then thingyfs_iget() would be called rather than iget(), for example:

	ret = -EINVAL;
	inode = iget(sb, ino);
	if (!inode || is_bad_inode(inode))
		goto error;

becomes:

	inode = thingyfs_iget(sb, ino);
	if (IS_ERR(inode)) {
		ret = PTR_ERR(inode);
		goto error;
	}

Note that is_bad_inode() does not need to be called.  The error returned by
thingyfs_iget() should render it unnecessary.

Stop the QNX4 filesystem from using iget() and read_inode().  Replace
qnx4_read_inode() with qnx4_iget(), and call that instead of iget().
qnx4_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code
instead of an inode in the event of an error.

qnx4_fill_super() returns any error incurred when getting the root inode
instead of EINVAL.

Ken'ichi Ohmichi c76f860c44 vmcoreinfo: rename vmcoreinfo's macros returning the size
This patchset is for the vmcoreinfo data.

The vmcoreinfo data has the minimum debugging information only for dump
filtering.  makedumpfile (dump filtering command) gets it to distinguish
unnecessary pages, and makedumpfile creates a small dumpfile.

This patch:

VMCOREINFO_SIZE() should be renamed VMCOREINFO_STRUCT_SIZE() since it's always
returning the size of the struct with a given name. This change would allow
VMCOREINFO_TYPEDEF_SIZE() to simply become VMCOREINFO_SIZE() since it need not
be used exclusively for typedefs.

Bernhard Walle 72a7fe3967 Introduce flags for reserve_bootmem()
This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the
BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions
between crashkernel area and already used memory.

This patch:

Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE.
If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already
has been reserved in the past.  This is to avoid conflicts.

Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition
inside reserve_bootmem_core().

Cliff Wickman 956db3ca06 hotplug cpu: move tasks in empty cpusets to parent
This patch corrects a situation that occurs when one disables all the cpus in
a cpuset.

Currently, the disabled (cpu-less) cpuset inherits the cpus of its parent,
which is incorrect because it may then overlap its cpu-exclusive sibling.

Tasks of an empty cpuset should be moved to the cpuset which is the parent of
their current cpuset.  Or if the parent cpuset has no cpus, to its parent,
etc.

And the empty cpuset should be released (if it is flagged notify_on_release).

Depends on the cgroup_scan_tasks() function (proposed by David Rientjes) to
iterate through all tasks in the cpu-less cpuset.  We are deliberately
avoiding a walk of the tasklist.

Add a handler "pre_destroy" to cgroup_subsys.  It is called before
cgroup_rmdir() checks all subsys's refcnt.

I think this is useful for subsys which have some extra refs even if there
are no tasks in cgroup.  By adding pre_destroy(), the kernel keeps the rule
"destroy() against subsystem is called only when refcnt=0." and allows css
ref to be used by other objects than tasks.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki ae41be3742 bugfix for memory cgroup controller: migration under memory controller fix
While using memory control cgroup, page-migration under it works as following.
==
 1. uncharge all refs at try to unmap.
 2. charge regs again remove_migration_ptes()
==
This is simple but has following problems.
==
 The page is uncharged and charged back again if *mapped*.
    - This means that cgroup before migration can be different from one after
      migration
    - If page is not mapped but charged as page cache, charge is just ignored
      (because not mapped, it will not be uncharged before migration)
      This is memory leak.
==
This patch tries to keep memory cgroup at page migration by increasing
one refcnt during it. 3 functions are added.

 mem_cgroup_prepare_migration() --- increase refcnt of page->page_cgroup
 mem_cgroup_end_migration()     --- decrease refcnt of page->page_cgroup
 mem_cgroup_page_migration() --- copy page->page_cgroup from old page to
                                 new page.

During migration
  - old page is under PG_locked.
  - new page is under PG_locked, too.
  - both old page and new page is not on LRU.

These 3 facts guarantee that page_cgroup() migration has no race.

Tested and worked well in x86_64/fake-NUMA box.

When the OOM killer is constrained by the memory controller, the exclusion
of tasks that are not a member of that controller was previously misplaced
and appeared in the badness scoring function.  It should be excluded
during the tasklist scan in select_bad_process() instead.

This patch was tested on a Powerpc box.  I am still looking at being able

contexts.

Balbir Singh 8a9f3ccd24 Memory controller: memory accounting
Add the accounting hooks.  The accounting is carried out for RSS and Page
Cache (unmapped) pages.  There is now a common limit and accounting for both.
The RSS accounting is accounted at page_add_*_rmap() and page_remove_rmap()
time.  Page cache is accounted at add_to_page_cache(),
__delete_from_page_cache().  Swap cache is also accounted for.

Each page's page_cgroup is protected with the last bit of the
page_cgroup pointer, this makes handling of race conditions involving
simultaneous mappings of a page easier.  A reference count is kept in the
page_cgroup to deal with cases where a page might be unmapped from the RSS
of all tasks, but still lives in the page cache.

Credits go to Vaidyanathan Srinivasan for helping with reference counting work
of the page cgroup.  Almost all of the page cache accounting code has help
from Vaidyanathan Srinivasan.

Erez Zadok deb21db778 VFS: swap do_ioctl and vfs_ioctl names
Rename old vfs_ioctl to do_ioctl, because the comment above it clearly
indicates that it is an internal function not to be exported to modules;
therefore it should have a more traditional do_XXX name.  The new do_ioctl
is exported in fs.h but not to modules.

Rename the old do_ioctl to vfs_ioctl because the names vfs_XXX should
preferably be reserved to callable VFS functions which modules may call, as
many other vfs_XXX functions already do.  Export the new vfs_ioctl to GPL
modules so others can use it (including Unionfs and eCryptfs).  Add DocBook
for new vfs_ioctl.

Richard Purdie 388bbb09b9 [MTD] Add mtd panic_write function pointer
MTDs are well suited for logging critical data and the mtdoops driver
allows kernel panics/oops to be written to flash in a blackbox flight
recorder fashion allowing better debugging and analysis of crashes.

Any kernel oops in user context can be easily handled since the kernel
continues as normal and any queued mtd writes are scheduled. Any kernel
oops in interrupt context results in a panic and the delayed writes will
not be scheduled however. The existing mtd->write function cannot be
called in interrupt context so these messages can never be written to
flash.

This patch adds a panic_write function pointer that drivers can
optionally implement which can be called in interrupt context. It is
only intended to be called when its known the kernel is about to panic
and we need to write to succeed. Since the kernel is not going to be
running for much longer, this function can break locks and delay to
ensure the write succeeds (but not sleep).

Thomas Renninger df92e69599 ACPI: track opregion names to avoid driver resource conflicts.
Small ACPICA extension to be able to store the name of operation regions in osl.c later

In ACPI, AML can define accesses to IO ports and System Memory by Operation
Regions.  Those are not registered as done by PNPACPI using resource templates
(and _CRS/_SRS methods).

The IO ports and System Memory regions may get accessed by arbitrary AML code.
 When native drivers are accessing the same resources bad things can happen
(e.g.  a critical shutdown temperature of 3000 C every 2 months or so).

It is not really possible to register the operation regions via
request_resource, as they often overlap with pnp or other resources (e.g.
statically setup IO resources below 0x100).

This approach stores all Operation Region declarations (IO and System Memory
only) at ACPI table parse time.  It offers a similar functionality like
request_region and let drivers which are known to possibly use the same IO
ports and Memory which are also often used by ACPI (hwmon and i2c) check for
ACPI interference.

A boot parameter acpi_enforce_resources=strict/lax/no is provided, which
is default set to lax:
  - strict: let conflicting drivers fail to load with an error message
  - lax:    let conflicting driver work normal with a warning message
  - no:     no functional change at all
Depending on the feedback and the kind of interferences we see, this
should be set to strict at later time.

Goal of this patch set is:
  - Identify ACPI interferences in bug reports (very hard to reproduce
    and to identify)
  - Find BIOSes for that an ACPI driver should exist for specific HW
    instead of a native one.
  - stability in general

Provide acpi_check_{mem_}region.

Drivers can additionally check against possible ACPI interference by also
invoking this shortly before they call request_region.
If -EBUSY is returned, the driver must not load.
Use acpi_enforce_resources=strict/lax/no options to:
  - strict: let conflicting drivers fail to load with an error message
  - lax:    let conflicting driver work normal with a warning message
  - no:     no functional change at all

Venki Pallipadi 9e76988e93 [CPUFREQ] Eliminate cpufreq_userspace scaling_setspeed deadlock
Eliminate cpufreq_userspace scaling_setspeed deadlock.

Luming Yu recently uncovered yet another cpufreq related deadlock.
One thread that continuously switches the governors and the other thread that
repeatedly cats the contents of cpufreq directory causes both these threads to
go into a deadlock.

Detailed examination of the deadlock showed the exact flow before the deadlock
as:

Thread 1			Thread 2
________			________
				cats files under /sys/devices/.../cpufreq/
Set governor to userspace
  Adds a new sysfs entry for
  scaling_setspeed
				cats files under /sys/devices/.../cpufreq/

Set governor to performance
  Holds cpufreq_rw_sem in write
  mode
  Sends a STOP notify to
  userspace governor
				cat /sys/devices/.../cpufreq/scaling_setspeed
				  Gets a handle on the above sysfs entry with
				  sysfs_get_active
				  Blocks while trying to get cpufreq_rw_sem
				  in read mode
  Remove a sysfs entry for
  scaling_setspeed
    Blocks on sysfs_deactivate
    while waiting for earlier
    get_active (on other thread)
    to drain

At this point both threads go into deadlock and any other thread that tries to
do anything with sysfs cpufreq will also block.

There seems to be no easy way to avoid this deadlock as long as
cpufreq_userspace adds/removes the sysfs entry under same kobject as cpufreq.
Below patch moves scaling_setspeed to cpufreq.c, keeping it always and calling
back the governor on read/write. This is the cleanest fix I could think of,
even though adding two callbacks in governor structure just for this seems
unnecessary.

Note that the change makes scaling_setspeed under /sys/.../cpufreq permanent
and returns <unsupported> when governor is not userspace.

NeilBrown c5d79adba7 md: allow devices to be shared between md arrays
Currently, a given device is "claimed" by a particular array so that it cannot
be used by other arrays.

This is not ideal for DDF and other metadata schemes which have their own
partitioning concept.

So for externally managed metadata, just claim the device for md in general,
require that "offset" and "size" are set properly for each device, and make
sure that if a device is included in different arrays then the active sections
do not overlap.

This involves adding another flag to the rdev which makes it awkward to set
"->flags = 0" to clear certain flags.  So now clear flags explicitly by name
when we want to clear things.

NeilBrown e691063a61 md: support 'external' metadata for md arrays
- Add a state flag 'external' to indicate that the metadata is managed
  externally (by user-space) so important changes need to be
  left of user-space to handle.
  Alternates are non-persistant ('none') where there is no stable metadata -
  after the  array is stopped there is no record of it's status - and
  internal which can be version 0.90 or version 1.x
  These are selected by writing to the 'metadata' attribute.

- move the updating of superblocks (sync_sbs) to after we have checked if
  there are any superblocks or not.

- New array state 'write_pending'.  This means that the metadata records
  the array as 'clean', but a write has been requested, so the metadata has
  to be updated to record a 'dirty' array before the write can continue.
  This change is reported to md by writing 'active' to the array_state
  attribute.

- tidy up marking of sb_dirty:
   - don't set sb_dirty when resync finishes as md_check_recovery
     calls md_update_sb when the sync thread finishes anyway.
   - Don't set sb_dirty in multipath_run as the array might not be dirty.
   - don't mark superblock dirty when switching to 'clean' if there
     is no internal superblock (if external, userspace can choose to
     update the superblock whenever it chooses to).

NeilBrown b47490c9bc md: Update md bitmap during resync.
Currently an md array with a write-intent bitmap does not updated that bitmap
to reflect successful partial resync.  Rather the entire bitmap is updated
when the resync completes.

This is because there is no guarentee that resync requests will complete in
order, and tracking each request individually is unnecessarily burdensome.

However there is value in regularly updating the bitmap, so add code to
periodically pause while all pending sync requests complete, then update the
bitmap.  Doing this only every few seconds (the same as the bitmap update
time) does not notciably affect resync performance.

Magnus Damm dfcffa467b sm501fb: control panel pin usage with platform data flags
This patch makes it possible to control panel pins usage with flags passed
from the platform data.  Without this patch the sm501fb driver always controls
the VBIASEN and FPEN pins.  The polarity and use of these pins are very
platform specific, so this patch introduces the flags
SM501FB_FLAG_PANEL_USE_VBIASEN and SM501FB_FLAG_PANEL_USE_FPEN which enable
the use of these pins.

This patch is needed to support the a Sharp LQ104V1DG21 lcd panel on SuperH
platforms such as R2D-1 and R2D-PLUS boards.  Letting the sm501fb driver
control the FPEN and VBIASEN pins like today just results in lcd panel
flicker.

David Fries 6ffc787a44 system timer: fix crash in <100Hz system timer
The kernel has a divide by zero crash when trying to run the system timer
less than 100Hz.  The problem is x/(HZ/USER_HZ) and related.  Now
x*(USER_HZ/HZ) will be used if HZ<USER_HZ.

I'm running the Linux kernel under qemu and went to run a slower system
timer to take less CPU (and battery) on the host.  I found that the kernel
paniced under emulation because of a divide by zero in three places.  Here
is the patch.  The base git was updated today 01-05-2008.  I went for a
20Hz system time by adding config HZ_20 etc to kernel/Kconfig.hz.  With
this patch I verified the system timer by looking at /proc/interrupts.

Eric Dumazet 1bf47346d7 kernel/sys.c: get rid of expensive divides in groups_sort()
groups_sort() can be quite long if user loads a large gid table.

This is because GROUP_AT(group_info, some_integer) uses an integer divide.
So having to do XXX thousand divides during one syscall can lead to very
high latencies.  (NGROUPS_MAX=65536)

In the past (25 Mar 2006), an analog problem was found in groups_search()
(commit d74beb9f33 ) and at that time I
changed some variables to unsigned int.

I believe that a more generic fix is to make sure NGROUPS_PER_BLOCK is
unsigned.

The rcu_assign_pointer() primitive currently unconditionally executes a

some to avoid using rcu_assign_pointer() for NULL pointers, which loses the

__builtin_const_p() to omit needless memory barriers for NULL-pointer
assignments at compile time with no runtime penalty, as discussed in the

Eric Dumazet 9cfe015aa4 get rid of NR_OPEN and introduce a sysctl_nr_open
NR_OPEN (historically set to 1024*1024) actually forbids processes to open
more than 1024*1024 handles.

Unfortunatly some production servers hit the not so 'ridiculously high
value' of 1024*1024 file descriptors per process.

Changing NR_OPEN is not considered safe because of vmalloc space potential
exhaust.

This patch introduces a new sysctl (/proc/sys/fs/nr_open) wich defaults to
1024*1024, so that admins can decide to change this limit if their workload
needs it.

Jan Kara ece95912db inotify: send IN_ATTRIB events when link count changes
Currently, no notification event has been sent when inode's link count
changed.  This is inconvenient for the application in some cases:

Suppose you have the following directory structure

    foo/test
    bar/

and you watch test.  If someone does "mv foo/test bar/", you get event
IN_MOVE_SELF and you know something has happened with the file "test".
However if someone does "ln foo/test bar/test" and "rm foo/test" you get no
inotify event for the file "test" (only directories "foo" and "bar" receive
events).

Furthermore it could be argued that link count belongs to file's metadata and
thus IN_ATTRIB should be sent when it changes.

The following patch implements sending of IN_ATTRIB inotify events when link
count of the inode changes, i.e., when a hardlink to the inode is created or
when it is removed.  This event is sent in addition to all the events sent so
far.  In particular, when a last link to a file is removed, IN_ATTRIB event is
sent in addition to IN_DELETE_SELF event.

- All implementations can be __devinit

- The function prototypes were in asm/timex.h but they all must be the same,
  so create a single declaration in linux/timex.h.

- uninline the sparc64 version to match the other architectures

- Don't bother #defining ARCH_HAS_READ_CURRENT_TIMER to a particular value.

David Woodhouse 96c5865559 Allow auto-destruction of loop devices
This allows a flag to be set on loop devices so that when they are
closed for the last time, they'll self-destruct.

In general, so that we can automatically allocate loop devices (as with
losetup -f) and have them disappear when we're done with them.

In particular, right now, so that we can stop relying on the hackish
special-case in umount(8) which kills off loop devices which were set up by
'mount -oloop'.  That means we can stop putting crap in /etc/mtab which
doesn't belong there, which means it can be a symlink to /proc/mounts, which
means yet another writable file on the root filesystem is eliminated and the
'stateless' folks get happier...  and OLPC trac #356 can be closed.

The mount(8) side of that is at

Matthew Wilcox 4e701482d1 hash: add explicit u32 and u64 versions of hash
The 32-bit version is more efficient (and apparently gives better hash
results than the 64-bit version), so users who are only hashing a 32-bit
quantity can now opt to use the 32-bit version explicitly, rather than
promoting to a long.

Dan Williams d4c56f97ff async_tx: replace 'int_en' with operation preparation flags
Pass a full set of flags to drivers' per-operation 'prep' routines.
Currently the only flag passed is DMA_PREP_INTERRUPT.  The expectation is
that arch-specific async_tx_find_channel() implementations can exploit this
capability to find the best channel for an operation.

Dan Williams 0036731c88 async_tx: kill tx_set_src and tx_set_dest methods
The tx_set_src and tx_set_dest methods were originally implemented to allow
an array of addresses to be passed down from async_xor to the dmaengine
driver while minimizing stack overhead.  Removing these methods allows
drivers to have all transaction parameters available at 'prep' time, saves
two function pointers in struct dma_async_tx_descriptor, and reduces the
number of indirect branches..

A consequence of moving this data to the 'prep' routine is that
multi-source routines like async_xor need temporary storage to convert an
array of linear addresses into an array of dma addresses.  In order to keep
the same stack footprint of the previous implementation the input array is
reused as storage for the dma addresses.  This requires that
sizeof(dma_addr_t) be less than or equal to sizeof(void *).  As a
consequence CONFIG_DMADEVICES now depends on !CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G.  It also
requires that drivers be able to make descriptor resources available when
the 'prep' routine is polled.
