The core device layer sends tons of uevent notifications for each device
it finds, and if the kernel has been built with a non-empty
CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH that will make us try to execute the usermode
helper binary for all these events very early in the boot.
Not only won't the root filesystem even be mounted at that point, we
literally won't have necessarily even initialized all the process
handling data structures at that point, which causes no end of silly
problems even when the usermode helper doesn't actually succeed in
executing.
So just use our existing infrastructure to disable the usermodehelpers
to make the kernel start out with them disabled. We enable them when
we've at least initialized stuff a bit.

We have already acknowledged that swapoff of a tmpfs file is slower than
it was before conversion to the generic radix_tree: a little slower
there will be acceptable, if the hotter paths are faster.
But it was a shock to find swapoff of a 500MB file 20 times slower on my
laptop, taking 10 minutes; and at that rate it significantly slows down
my testing.
Now, most of that turned out to be overhead from PROVE_LOCKING and
PROVE_RCU: without those it was only 4 times slower than before; and
more realistic tests on other machines don't fare as badly.
I've tried a number of things to improve it, including tagging the swap
entries, then doing lookup by tag: I'd expected that to halve the time,
but in practice it's erratic, and often counter-productive.
The only change I've so far found to make a consistent improvement, is
to short-circuit the way we go back and forth, gang lookup packing
entries into the array supplied, then shmem scanning that array for the
target entry. Scanning in place doubles the speed, so it's now only
twice as slow as before (or three times slower when the PROVEs are on).
So, add radix_tree_locate_item() as an expedient, once-off,
single-caller hack to do the lookup directly in place. #ifdef it on
CONFIG_SHMEM and CONFIG_SWAP, as much to document its limited
applicability as save space in other configurations. And, sadly,
#include sched.h for cond_resched().

But we've not yet removed the old swp_entry_t i_direct[16] from

Convert shmem_writepage() to use shmem_delete_from_page_cache() to use

atomically in the radix tree.
As with shmem_add_to_page_cache(), it's not entirely satisfactory to be
copying such code from delete_from_swap_cache, but again judged easier
to sell than making its other callers go through the extras.
Remove the toy implementation's shmem_put_swap() and shmem_get_swap(),

The way things have worked out, info->lock no longer helps to guard the
shmem_swaplist: we increment swapped under shmem_swaplist_mutex only.
That global mutex exclusion between shmem_writepage() and shmem_unuse()
is not pretty, and we ought to find another way; but it's been forced on
us by recent race discoveries, not a consequence of this patchset.
And what has become of the WARN_ON_ONCE(1) free_swap_and_cache() if a

Convert shmem_getpage_gfp(), the engine-room of shmem, to expect page or
swap entry returned from radix tree by find_lock_page().
Whereas the repetitive old method proceeded mainly under info->lock,
dropping and repeating whenever one of the conditions needed was not
met, now we can proceed without it, leaving shmem_add_to_page_cache() to
check for a race.
This way there is no need to preallocate a page, no need for an early
radix_tree_preload(), no need for mem_cgroup_shmem_charge_fallback().
Move the error unwinding down to the bottom instead of repeating it
throughout. ENOSPC handling is a little different from before: there is
no longer any race between find_lock_page() and finding swap, but we can
arrive at ENOSPC before calling shmem_recalc_inode(), which might
occasionally discover freed space.
Be stricter to check i_size before returning. info->lock is used for
little but alloced, swapped, i_blocks updates. Move i_blocks updates
out from under the max_blocks check, so even an unlimited size=0 mount
can show accurate du.

Convert shmem_unuse_inode() to use a lockless gang lookup of the radix
tree, searching for matching swap.
This is somewhat slower than the old method: because of repeated radix
tree descents, because of copying entries up, but probably most because
the old method noted and skipped once a vector page was cleared of swap.
Perhaps we can devise a use of radix tree tagging to achieve that later.
shmem_add_to_page_cache() uses shmem_radix_tree_replace() to compensate
for the lockless lookup by checking that the expected entry is in place,
under lock. It is not very satisfactory to be copying this much from
add_to_page_cache_locked(), but I think easier to sell than insisting
that every caller of add_to_page_cache*() go through the extras.

shmem_radix_tree_replace() compensates for the lockless lookup by

The maximum size of a shmem/tmpfs file has been limited by the maximum
size of its triple-indirect swap vector. With 4kB page size, maximum
filesize was just over 2TB on a 32-bit kernel, but sadly one eighth of
that on a 64-bit kernel. (With 8kB page size, maximum filesize was just
over 4TB on a 64-bit kernel, but 16TB on a 32-bit kernel,
MAX_LFS_FILESIZE being then more restrictive than swap vector layout.)
It's a shame that tmpfs should be more restrictive than ramfs, and this
limitation has now been noticed. Add another level to the swap vector?
No, it became obscure and hard to maintain, once I complicated it to
make use of highmem pages nine years ago: better choose another way.
Surely, if 2.4 had had the radix tree pagecache introduced in 2.5, then
tmpfs would never have invented its own peculiar radix tree: we would
have fitted swap entries into the common radix tree instead, in much the
same way as we fit swap entries into page tables.
And why should each file have a separate radix tree for its pages and
for its swap entries? The swap entries are required precisely where and
when the pages are not. We want to put them together in a single radix
tree: which can then avoid much of the locking which was needed to
prevent them from being exchanged underneath us.
This also avoids the waste of memory devoted to swap vectors, first in
the shmem_inode itself, then at least two more pages once a file grew
beyond 16 data pages (pages accounted by df and du, but not by memcg).
Allocated upfront, to avoid allocation when under swapping pressure, but
pure waste when CONFIG_SWAP is not set - I have never spattered around
the ifdefs to prevent that, preferring this move to sharing the common
radix tree instead.
There are three downsides to sharing the radix tree. One, that it binds
tmpfs more tightly to the rest of mm, either requiring knowledge of swap
entries in radix tree there, or duplication of its code here in shmem.c.
I believe that the simplications and memory savings (and probable higher
performance, not yet measured) justify that.
Two, that on HIGHMEM systems with SWAP enabled, it's the lowmem radix
nodes that cannot be freed under memory pressure - whereas before it was
the less precious highmem swap vector pages that could not be freed.
I'm hoping that 64-bit has now been accessible for long enough, that the
highmem argument has grown much less persuasive.
Three, that swapoff is slower than it used to be on tmpfs files, since
it's using a simple generic mechanism not tailored to it: I find this
noticeable, and shall want to improve, but maybe nobody else will
notice.
So... now remove most of the old swap vector code from shmem.c. But,
for the moment, keep the simple i_direct vector of 16 pages, with simple
accessors shmem_put_swap() and shmem_get_swap(), as a toy implementation
to help mark where swap needs to be handled in subsequent patches.

If swap entries are to be stored along with struct page pointers in a
radix tree, they need to be distinguished as exceptional entries.
Most of the handling of swap entries in radix tree will be contained in
shmem.c, but a few functions in filemap.c's common code need to check
for their appearance: find_get_page(), find_lock_page(),
find_get_pages() and find_get_pages_contig().
So as not to slow their fast paths, tuck those checks inside the
existing checks for unlikely radix_tree_deref_slot(); except for
find_lock_page(), where it is an added test. And make it a BUG in
find_get_pages_tag(), which is not applied to tmpfs files.
A part of the reason for eliminating shmem_readpage() earlier, was to
minimize the places where common code would need to allow for swap
entries.
The swp_entry_t known to swapfile.c must be massaged into a slightly
different form when stored in the radix tree, just as it gets massaged
into a pte_t when stored in page tables.
In an i386 kernel this limits its information (type and page offset) to
30 bits: given 32 "types" of swapfile and 4kB pagesize, that's a maximum
swapfile size of 128GB. Which is less than the 512GB we previously
allowed with X86_PAE (where the swap entry can occupy the entire upper
32 bits of a pte_t), but not a new limitation on 32-bit without PAE; and
there's not a new limitation on 64-bit (where swap filesize is already
limited to 16TB by a 32-bit page offset). Thirty areas of 128GB is
probably still enough swap for a 64GB 32-bit machine.
Provide swp_to_radix_entry() and radix_to_swp_entry() conversions, and
enforce filesize limit in read_swap_header(), just as for ptes.

A patchset to extend tmpfs to MAX_LFS_FILESIZE by abandoning its
peculiar swap vector, instead keeping a file's swap entries in the same
radix tree as its struct page pointers: thus saving memory, and
simplifying its code and locking.
This patch:
The radix_tree is used by several subsystems for different purposes. A
major use is to store the struct page pointers of a file's pagecache for
memory management. But what if mm wanted to store something other than
page pointers there too?
The low bit of a radix_tree entry is already used to denote an indirect
pointer, for internal use, and the unlikely radix_tree_deref_retry()
case.
Define the next bit as denoting an exceptional entry, and supply inline
functions radix_tree_exception() to return non-0 in either unlikely
case, and radix_tree_exceptional_entry() to return non-0 in the second
case.
If a subsystem already uses radix_tree with that bit set, no problem: it
does not affect internal workings at all, but is defined for the
convenience of those storing well-aligned pointers in the radix_tree.
The radix_tree_gang_lookups have an implicit assumption that the caller
can deduce the offset of each entry returned e.g. by the page->index of
a struct page. But that may not be feasible for some kinds of item to
be stored there.
radix_tree_gang_lookup_slot() allow for an optional indices argument,
output array in which to return those offsets. The same could be added
to other radix_tree_gang_lookups, but for now keep it to the only one
for which we need it.

for name_to_dev_t. In addition, updates other places where some
name_to_dev_t behavior was discussed. All other references to root=
appear to be for explicit sample usage or just side comments when
discussing other kernel parameters.

The current hyper-optimized functions are overkill if you simply want to
allocate an id for a device. Create versions which use an internal
lock.
In followup patches, numerous drivers are converted to use this
interface.

When send_cpu_listeners() finds the orphaned listener it marks it as
!valid and drops listeners->sem. Before it takes this sem for writing,
s->pid can be reused and add_del_listener() can wrongly try to re-use
this entry.
Change add_del_listener() to check ->valid = T.

1. Commit 26c4caea9d "don't allow duplicate entries in listener mode"
changed add_del_listener(REGISTER) so that "next_cpu:" can reuse the
listener allocated for the previous cpu, this doesn't look exactly
right even if minor.
Change the code to kfree() in the already-registered case, this case
is unlikely anyway so the extra kmalloc_node() shouldn't hurt but
looke more correct and clean.
2. use the plain list_for_each_entry() instead of _safe() to scan
listeners->list.
3. Remove the unneeded INIT_LIST_HEAD(&s->list), we are going to
list_add(&s->list).

As the comment explains, the intention of the code is to clear the
OMAP_RTC_CTRL_MODE_12_24 bit, but instead it only clears the
OMAP_RTC_CTRL_SPLIT and OMAP_RTC_CTRL_AUTO_COMP bits, which should be
kept. OMAP_RTC_CTRL_DISABLE, OMAP_RTC_CTRL_SET_32_COUNTER,
OMAP_RTC_CTRL_TEST, and OMAP_RTC_CTRL_ROUND_30S are also better off
being cleared.

init_fault_attr_dentries() is used to export fault_attr via debugfs.
But it can only export it in debugfs root directory.
Per Forlin is working on mmc_fail_request which adds support to inject
data errors after a completed host transfer in MMC subsystem.
The fault_attr for mmc_fail_request should be defined per mmc host and
export it in debugfs directory per mmc host like
/sys/kernel/debug/mmc0/mmc_fail_request.
init_fault_attr_dentries() doesn't help for mmc_fail_request. So this
introduces fault_create_debugfs_attr() which is able to create a
directory in the arbitrary directory and replace
init_fault_attr_dentries().

When a Xen Dom0 kernel boots on a hypervisor, it gets access
to the raw-hardware ACPI tables. While it parses the idle tables
for the hypervisor's beneift, it uses HLT for its own idle.
Rather than have xen scribble on pm_idle and access default_idle,
have it simply disable_cpuidle() so acpi_idle will not load and
architecture default HLT will be used.

The Moorestown (MRST) Power Management Unit (PMU) driver
directs the SOC power states in the "Langwell" south complex (SCU).
It hooks pci_platform_pm_ops[] and thus observes all PCI ".set_state"
requests. For devices in the SC, the pmu driver translates those
PCI requests into the appropriate commands for the SCU.
The PMU driver helps implement S0i3, a deep system idle power idle state.
Entry into S0i3 is via cpuidle, just like regular processor c-states.
S0i3 depends on pre-conditions including uni-processor, graphics off,
and certain IO devices in the SC must be off. If those pre-conditions
are met, then the PMU allows cpuidle to enter S0i3, otherwise such requests
are demoted, either to Atom C4 or Atom C6.
This driver is based on prototype work by Bruce Flemming,
Illyas Mansoor, Rajeev D. Muralidhar, Vishwesh M. Rudramuni,
Hari Seshadri and Sujith Thomas. The current driver also
includes contributions from H. Peter Anvin, Arjan van de Ven,
Kristen Accardi, and Yong Wang.
Thanks for additional review feedback from Alan Cox and Randy Dunlap.

EINJ parameter support is only usable for some specific BIOS.
Originally, it is expected to have no harm for BIOS does not support
it. But now, we found it will cause issue (memory overwriting) for
some BIOS. So param support is disabled by default and only enabled
when newly added module parameter named "param_extension" is
explicitly specified.
