mm: memcontrol: fix transparent huge page allocations under pressure
In a memcg with even just moderate cache pressure, success rates for transparent huge page allocations drop to zero, wasting a lot of effort that the allocator puts into assembling these pages. The reason for this is that the memcg reclaim code was never designed for higher-order charges. It reclaims in small batches until there is room for at least one page. Huge page charges only succeed when these batches add up over a series of huge faults, which is unlikely under any significant load involving order-0 allocations in the group. Remove that loop on the memcg side in favor of passing the actual reclaim goal to direct reclaim, which is already set up and optimized to meet higher-order goals efficiently. This brings memcg's THP policy in line with the system policy: if the allocator painstakingly assembles a hugepage, memcg will at least make an honest effort to charge it. As a result, transparent hugepage allocation rates amid cache activity are drastically improved: vanilla patched pgalloc 4717530.80 ( +0.00%) 4451376.40 ( -5.64%) pgfault 491370.60 ( +0.00%) 225477.40 ( -54.11%) pgmajfault 2.00 ( +0.00%) 1.80 ( -6.67%) thp_fault_alloc 0.00 ( +0.00%) 531.60 (+100.00%) thp_fault_fallback 749.00 ( +0.00%) 217.40 ( -70.88%) [ Note: this may in turn increase memory consumption from internal fragmentation, which is an inherent risk of transparent hugepages. Some setups may have to adjust the memcg limits accordingly to accomodate this - or, if the machine is already packed to capacity, disable the transparent huge page feature. ] Signed-off-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Reviewed-by: Vladimir Davydov <vdavydov@parallels.com> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave@sr71.net> Cc: Greg Thelen <gthelen@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

memcg: move memcg_update_cache_size() to slab_common.c
`While growing per memcg caches arrays, we jump between memcontrol.c and slab_common.c in a weird way: memcg_alloc_cache_id - memcontrol.c memcg_update_all_caches - slab_common.c memcg_update_cache_size - memcontrol.c There's absolutely no reason why memcg_update_cache_size can't live on the slab's side though. So let's move it there and settle it comfortably amid per-memcg cache allocation functions. Besides, this patch cleans this function up a bit, removing all the useless comments from it, and renames it to memcg_update_cache_params to conform to memcg_alloc/free_cache_params, which we already have in slab_common.c.

memcg: move memcg_{alloc,free}_cache_params to slab_common.c
The only reason why they live in memcontrol.c is that we get/put css reference to the owner memory cgroup in them. However, we can do that in memcg_{un,}register_cache. OTOH, there are several reasons to move them to slab_common.c. First, I think that the less public interface functions we have in memcontrol.h the better. Since the functions I move don't depend on memcontrol, I think it's worth making them private to slab, especially taking into account that the arrays are defined on the slab's side too. Second, the way how per-memcg arrays are updated looks rather awkward: it proceeds from memcontrol.c (__memcg_activate_kmem) to slab_common.c (memcg_update_all_caches) and back to memcontrol.c again (memcg_update_array_size). In the following patches I move the function relocating the arrays (memcg_update_array_size) to slab_common.c and therefore get rid this circular call path. I think we should have the cache allocation stuff in the same place where we have relocation, because it's easier to follow the code then. So I move arrays alloc/free functions to slab_common.c too. The third point isn't obvious. I'm going to make the list_lru structure per-memcg to allow targeted kmem reclaim. That means we will have per-memcg arrays in list_lrus too. It turns out that it's much easier to update these arrays in list_lru.c rather than in memcontrol.c, because all the stuff we need is defined there. This patch makes memcg caches arrays allocation path conform that of the upcoming list_lru. So let's move these functions to slab_common.c and make them static.

prctl: PR_SET_MM -- introduce PR_SET_MM_MAP operation
During development of c/r we've noticed that in case if we need to support user namespaces we face a problem with capabilities in prctl(PR_SET_MM, ...) call, in particular once new user namespace is created capable(CAP_SYS_RESOURCE) no longer passes. A approach is to eliminate CAP_SYS_RESOURCE check but pass all new values in one bundle, which would allow the kernel to make more intensive test for sanity of values and same time allow us to support checkpoint/restore of user namespaces. Thus a new command PR_SET_MM_MAP introduced. It takes a pointer of prctl_mm_map structure which carries all the members to be updated. prctl(PR_SET_MM, PR_SET_MM_MAP, struct prctl_mm_map *, size) struct prctl_mm_map { __u64 start_code; __u64 end_code; __u64 start_data; __u64 end_data; __u64 start_brk; __u64 brk; __u64 start_stack; __u64 arg_start; __u64 arg_end; __u64 env_start; __u64 env_end; __u64 *auxv; __u32 auxv_size; __u32 exe_fd; }; All members except @exe_fd correspond ones of struct mm_struct. To figure out which available values these members may take here are meanings of the members. - start_code, end_code: represent bounds of executable code area - start_data, end_data: represent bounds of data area - start_brk, brk: used to calculate bounds for brk() syscall - start_stack: used when accounting space needed for command line arguments, environment and shmat() syscall - arg_start, arg_end, env_start, env_end: represent memory area supplied for command line arguments and environment variables - auxv, auxv_size: carries auxiliary vector, Elf format specifics - exe_fd: file descriptor number for executable link (/proc/self/exe) Thus we apply the following requirements to the values 1) Any member except @auxv, @auxv_size, @exe_fd is rather an address in user space thus it must be laying inside [mmap_min_addr, mmap_max_addr) interval. 2) While @[start|end]_code and @[start|end]_data may point to an nonexisting VMAs (say a program maps own new .text and .data segments during execution) the rest of members should belong to VMA which must exist. 3) Addresses must be ordered, ie @start_ member must not be greater or equal to appropriate @end_ member. 4) As in regular Elf loading procedure we require that @start_brk and @brk be greater than @end_data. 5) If RLIMIT_DATA rlimit is set to non-infinity new values should not exceed existing limit. Same applies to RLIMIT_STACK. 6) Auxiliary vector size must not exceed existing one (which is predefined as AT_VECTOR_SIZE and depends on architecture). 7) File descriptor passed in @exe_file should be pointing to executable file (because we use existing prctl_set_mm_exe_file_locked helper it ensures that the file we are going to use as exe link has all required permission granted). Now about where these members are involved inside kernel code: - @start_code and @end_code are used in /proc/$pid/[stat|statm] output; - @start_data and @end_data are used in /proc/$pid/[stat|statm] output, also they are considered if there enough space for brk() syscall result if RLIMIT_DATA is set; - @start_brk shown in /proc/$pid/stat output and accounted in brk() syscall if RLIMIT_DATA is set; also this member is tested to find a symbolic name of mmap event for perf system (we choose if event is generated for "heap" area); one more aplication is selinux -- we test if a process has PROCESS__EXECHEAP permission if trying to make heap area being executable with mprotect() syscall; - @brk is a current value for brk() syscall which lays inside heap area, it's shown in /proc/$pid/stat. When syscall brk() succesfully provides new memory area to a user space upon brk() completion the mm::brk is updated to carry new value; Both @start_brk and @brk are actively used in /proc/$pid/maps and /proc/$pid/smaps output to find a symbolic name "heap" for VMA being scanned; - @start_stack is printed out in /proc/$pid/stat and used to find a symbolic name "stack" for task and threads in /proc/$pid/maps and /proc/$pid/smaps output, and as the same as with @start_brk -- perf system uses it for event naming. Also kernel treat this member as a start address of where to map vDSO pages and to check if there is enough space for shmat() syscall; - @arg_start, @arg_end, @env_start and @env_end are printed out in /proc/$pid/stat. Another access to the data these members represent is to read /proc/$pid/environ or /proc/$pid/cmdline. Any attempt to read these areas kernel tests with access_process_vm helper so a user must have enough rights for this action; - @auxv and @auxv_size may be read from /proc/$pid/auxv. Strictly speaking kernel doesn't care much about which exactly data is sitting there because it is solely for userspace; - @exe_fd is referred from /proc/$pid/exe and when generating coredump. We uses prctl_set_mm_exe_file_locked helper to update this member, so exe-file link modification remains one-shot action. Still note that updating exe-file link now doesn't require sys-resource capability anymore, after all there is no much profit in preventing setup own file link (there are a number of ways to execute own code -- ptrace, ld-preload, so that the only reliable way to find which exactly code is executed is to inspect running program memory). Still we require the caller to be at least user-namespace root user. I believe the old interface should be deprecated and ripped off in a couple of kernel releases if no one against. To test if new interface is implemented in the kernel one can pass PR_SET_MM_MAP_SIZE opcode and the kernel returns the size of currently supported struct prctl_mm_map.

mm, compaction: khugepaged should not give up due to need_resched()
Async compaction aborts when it detects zone lock contention or need_resched() is true. David Rientjes has reported that in practice, most direct async compactions for THP allocation abort due to need_resched(). This means that a second direct compaction is never attempted, which might be OK for a page fault, but khugepaged is intended to attempt a sync compaction in such case and in these cases it won't. This patch replaces "bool contended" in compact_control with an int that distinguishes between aborting due to need_resched() and aborting due to lock contention. This allows propagating the abort through all compaction functions as before, but passing the abort reason up to __alloc_pages_slowpath() which decides when to continue with direct reclaim and another compaction attempt. Another problem is that try_to_compact_pages() did not act upon the reported contention (both need_resched() or lock contention) immediately and would proceed with another zone from the zonelist. When need_resched() is true, that means initializing another zone compaction, only to check again need_resched() in isolate_migratepages() and aborting. For zone lock contention, the unintended consequence is that the lock contended status reported back to the allocator is detrmined from the last zone where compaction was attempted, which is rather arbitrary. This patch fixes the problem in the following way: - async compaction of a zone aborting due to need_resched() or fatal signal pending means that further zones should not be tried. We report COMPACT_CONTENDED_SCHED to the allocator. - aborting zone compaction due to lock contention means we can still try another zone, since it has different set of locks. We report back COMPACT_CONTENDED_LOCK only if *all* zones where compaction was attempted, it was aborted due to lock contention. As a result of these fixes, khugepaged will proceed with second sync compaction as intended, when the preceding async compaction aborted due to need_resched(). Page fault compactions aborting due to need_resched() will spare some cycles previously wasted by initializing another zone compaction only to abort again. Lock contention will be reported only when compaction in all zones aborted due to lock contention, and therefore it's not a good idea to try again after reclaim. In stress-highalloc from mmtests configured to use __GFP_NO_KSWAPD, this has improved number of THP collapse allocations by 10%, which shows positive effect on khugepaged. The benchmark's success rates are unchanged as it is not recognized as khugepaged. Numbers of compact_stall and compact_fail events have however decreased by 20%, with compact_success still a bit improved, which is good. With benchmark configured not to use __GFP_NO_KSWAPD, there is 6% improvement in THP collapse allocations, and only slight improvement in stalls and failures.

mm, compaction: defer each zone individually instead of preferred zone
When direct sync compaction is often unsuccessful, it may become deferred
for some time to avoid further useless attempts, both sync and async.
Successful high-order allocations un-defer compaction, while further
unsuccessful compaction attempts prolong the compaction deferred period.
Currently the checking and setting deferred status is performed only on
the preferred zone of the allocation that invoked direct compaction. But
compaction itself is attempted on all eligible zones in the zonelist, so
the behavior is suboptimal and may lead both to scenarios where 1)
compaction is attempted uselessly, or 2) where it's not attempted despite
good chances of succeeding, as shown on the examples below:
1) A direct compaction with Normal preferred zone failed and set
deferred compaction for the Normal zone. Another unrelated direct
compaction with DMA32 as preferred zone will attempt to compact DMA32
zone even though the first compaction attempt also included DMA32 zone.
In another scenario, compaction with Normal preferred zone failed to
compact Normal zone, but succeeded in the DMA32 zone, so it will not
defer compaction. In the next attempt, it will try Normal zone which
will fail again, instead of skipping Normal zone and trying DMA32
directly.
2) Kswapd will balance DMA32 zone and reset defer status based on
watermarks looking good. A direct compaction with preferred Normal
zone will skip compaction of all zones including DMA32 because Normal
was still deferred. The allocation might have succeeded in DMA32, but
won't.
This patch makes compaction deferring work on individual zone basis
instead of preferred zone. For each zone, it checks compaction_deferred()
to decide if the zone should be skipped. If watermarks fail after
compacting the zone, defer_compaction() is called. The zone where
watermarks passed can still be deferred when the allocation attempt is
unsuccessful. When allocation is successful, compaction_defer_reset() is
called for the zone containing the allocated page. This approach should
approximate calling defer_compaction() only on zones where compaction was
attempted and did not yield allocated page. There might be corner cases
but that is inevitable as long as the decision to stop compacting dues not
guarantee that a page will be allocated.
Due to a new COMPACT_DEFERRED return value, some functions relying
implicitly on COMPACT_SKIPPED = 0 had to be updated, with comments made
more accurate. The did_some_progress output parameter of
__alloc_pages_direct_compact() is removed completely, as the caller
actually does not use it after compaction sets it - it is only considered
when direct reclaim sets it.
During testing on a two-node machine with a single very small Normal zone
on node 1, this patch has improved success rates in stress-highalloc
mmtests benchmark. The success here were previously made worse by commit

common: dma-mapping: introduce common remapping functions
For architectures without coherent DMA, memory for DMA may need to be remapped with coherent attributes. Factor out the the remapping code from arm and put it in a common location to reduce code duplication. As part of this, the arm APIs are now migrated away from ioremap_page_range to the common APIs which use map_vm_area for remapping. This should be an equivalent change and using map_vm_area is more correct as ioremap_page_range is intended to bring in io addresses into the cpu space and not regular kernel managed memory.

mm: remove misleading ARCH_USES_NUMA_PROT_NONE
ARCH_USES_NUMA_PROT_NONE was defined for architectures that implemented
_PAGE_NUMA using _PROT_NONE. This saved using an additional PTE bit and
relied on the fact that PROT_NONE vmas were skipped by the NUMA hinting
fault scanner. This was found to be conceptually confusing with a lot of
implicit assumptions and it was asked that an alternative be found.

memory-hotplug: add sysfs valid_zones attribute
Currently memory-hotplug has two limits: 1. If the memory block is in ZONE_NORMAL, you can change it to ZONE_MOVABLE, but this memory block must be adjacent to ZONE_MOVABLE. 2. If the memory block is in ZONE_MOVABLE, you can change it to ZONE_NORMAL, but this memory block must be adjacent to ZONE_NORMAL. With this patch, we can easy to know a memory block can be onlined to which zone, and don't need to know the above two limits. Updated the related Documentation.

mm/slab: use percpu allocator for cpu cache
Because of chicken and egg problem, initialization of SLAB is really complicated. We need to allocate cpu cache through SLAB to make the kmem_cache work, but before initialization of kmem_cache, allocation through SLAB is impossible. On the other hand, SLUB does initialization in a more simple way. It uses percpu allocator to allocate cpu cache so there is no chicken and egg problem. So, this patch try to use percpu allocator in SLAB. This simplifies the initialization step in SLAB so that we could maintain SLAB code more easily. In my testing there is no performance difference. This implementation relies on percpu allocator. Because percpu allocator uses vmalloc address space, vmalloc address space could be exhausted by this change on many cpu system with *32 bit* kernel. This implementation can cover 1024 cpus in worst case by following calculation. Worst: 1024 cpus * 4 bytes for pointer * 300 kmem_caches * 120 objects per cpu_cache = 140 MB Normal: 1024 cpus * 4 bytes for pointer * 150 kmem_caches(slab merge) * 80 objects per cpu_cache = 46 MB Signed-off-by: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Acked-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Jeremiah Mahler <jmmahler@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

topology: add support for node_to_mem_node() to determine the fallback node
Anton noticed (http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg67489.html) that
on ppc LPARs with memoryless nodes, a large amount of memory was consumed
by slabs and was marked unreclaimable. He tracked it down to slab
deactivations in the SLUB core when we allocate remotely, leading to poor
efficiency always when memoryless nodes are present.
After much discussion, Joonsoo provided a few patches that help
significantly. They don't resolve the problem altogether:
- memory hotplug still needs testing, that is when a memoryless node
becomes memory-ful, we want to dtrt
- there are other reasons for going off-node than memoryless nodes,
e.g., fully exhausted local nodes
Neither case is resolved with this series, but I don't think that should
block their acceptance, as they can be explored/resolved with follow-on
patches.
The series consists of:
[1/3] topology: add support for node_to_mem_node() to determine the
fallback node
[2/3] slub: fallback to node_to_mem_node() node if allocating on
memoryless node
- Joonsoo's patches to cache the nearest node with memory for each
NUMA node

mm/sl[ao]b: always track caller in kmalloc_(node_)track_caller()
Now, we track caller if tracing or slab debugging is enabled. If they are disabled, we could save one argument passing overhead by calling __kmalloc(_node)(). But, I think that it would be marginal. Furthermore, default slab allocator, SLUB, doesn't use this technique so I think that it's okay to change this situation. After this change, we can turn on/off CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB without full kernel build and remove some complicated '#if' defintion. It looks more benefitial to me.

mm/slab_common: move kmem_cache definition to internal header
We don't need to keep kmem_cache definition in include/linux/slab.h if we don't need to inline kmem_cache_size(). According to my code inspection, this function is only called at lc_create() in lib/lru_cache.c which may be called at initialization phase of something, so we don't need to inline it. Therfore, move it to slab_common.c and move kmem_cache definition to internal header. After this change, we can change kmem_cache definition easily without full kernel build. For instance, we can turn on/off CONFIG_SLUB_STATS without full kernel build.

proc/maps: make vm_is_stack() logic namespace-friendly
- Rename vm_is_stack() to task_of_stack() and change it to return "struct task_struct *" rather than the global (and thus wrong in general) pid_t. - Add the new pid_of_stack() helper which calls task_of_stack() and uses the right namespace to report the correct pid_t. Unfortunately we need to define this helper twice, in task_mmu.c and in task_nommu.c. perhaps it makes sense to add fs/proc/util.c and move at least pid_of_stack/task_of_stack there to avoid the code duplication. - Change show_map_vma() and show_numa_map() to use the new helper.

Pull networking updates from David Miller: "Most notable changes in here: 1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of several individuals. Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires. skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to call the driver immediately with another SKB to send. There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in software is now done with no locks held. Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can be used to test a multi-send implementation. Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4, virtio_net Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to support this optimization soon. I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper Dangaard Brouer, Eric Dumazet, Alexander Duyck, Tom Herbert, Jamal Hadi Salim, John Fastabend, Florian Westphal, Daniel Borkmann, David Tat, Hannes Frederic Sowa, and Rusty Russell. 2) PTP and timestamping support in bnx2x, from Michal Kalderon. 3) Allow adjusting the rx_copybreak threshold for a driver via ethtool, and add rx_copybreak support to enic driver. From Govindarajulu Varadarajan. 4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from Florian Fainelli. 5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA into pools of pages. The objective is to get exactly the necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled, but no more. The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen(). From WANG Cong, with driver conversions (several had their own by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric Dumazet. 6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for encapsulations, and add "foo over UDP" facility. From Tom Herbert. 7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian Fainelli. 8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive testsuite. Alexei Starovoitov and Daniel Borkmann. 9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major areas such as the classifiers and rate estimators. From John Fastabend. 10) Add driver for Intel FM10000 Ethernet Switch, from Alexander Duyck. 11) Rearrange TCP_SKB_CB() to reduce cache line misses, from Eric Dumazet. 12) Add Datacenter TCP congestion control algorithm support, From Florian Westphal. 13) Reorganize sk_buff so that __copy_skb_header() is significantly faster.

ARM: SoC cleanups for 3.18
This time around, the cleanup branch contains mostly code removal. A number of board files for at91, imx and msm have become obsolete because of the DT conversion and are now ready to be removed. The OMAP platform has traditionally had its own DMA engine abstraction and as this is being phased out, a lot of the original code is now unused and can be removed as well. S3C24xx can be simplified now that the restart code is a proper device driver. Finally, a number of cleanups in shmobile are done to prepare for the addition of new code in other branches. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iQIVAwUAVDWVEmCrR//JCVInAQIt+Q/+P9ABxjC/IjbTi2PN1MtBaaiFZajMj9pA h6UCsS08sUiOlr+jjl623evQqYswRk4aoOoPS6AiOYt0xUlAJ7euoOvo82Rjc+jy Yc4kRx/l7KffhaFGL2zQ0iLax9BH3fkAU5+fOEkq4QWpXzCX9WKWG+x6QYNnuRxy Y2jhjH13s/0EKl4hCBBS8LfEWyKmaFBwzKIVTS5IyBPrmu3dGaQS+zM0O65fWY6a eLMlsCgnfre4doy60YlZSNLA6Wc9gdBgyVi4wD90PVVnvs/IiSuS/6QABozKRp2t p+OH8Apgb1W+y5RL9+3nvTAF/jbLRhu3P7/DJcpQcd35RSDUdqCvQnNyaz4j/P3i hsZ67gY/1gIeI09vRHnnZL2Z6whmWVk4bhY9j0bbEnAjvtizWxmJxbboOQQQ0rv6 UO2oqJ9hN99tf8aKiKK9//DLAAVoRHgJSDxgcC10XcH6JZzACX/9BFNC0X23gWBp QygtHFA6kSPW243j26/KVOjP/eUkekEVn89nqVwI3jJI2pwAjylFVEH3kNAZ/R88 J68V4nwkqrQyAHG/WQo6GDjl5NQ/JeIUHvaAfjMUvFOIiaotkxMrw56hLGk2n1ZN QxlnxQJX+w+VvcUhuzu0YPdZnb5AWRV2R13JAoYBCfwWviqBDXJxysTA//4OR29p JAqXJqzGync= =Af7T -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'cleanup-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc Pull ARM SoC cleanups from Arnd Bergmann: "This time around, the cleanup branch contains mostly code removal.

Some of this is due to drivers being added to the networking tree, so the old versions are removed here, but even then, the overall difference is quite good. Other than driver deletions, lots and lots and lots of minor cleanups all over the place. Full details are in the shortlog below.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm
Pull ARM updates from Russell King: "Included in these updates are: - Performance optimisation to avoid writing the control register at every exception. - Use static inline instead of extern inline in ftrace code. - Crypto ARM assembly updates for big endian - Alignment of initrd/.init memory to page sizes when freeing to ensure that we fully free the regions - Add gcov support - A couple of preparatory patches for VDSO support: use _install_special_mapping, and randomize the sigpage placement above stack. - Add L2 ePAPR DT cache properties so that DT can specify the cache geometry. - Preparatory patch for FIQ (NMI) kernel C code for things like spinlock lockup debug. Following on from this are a couple of my patches cleaning up show_regs() and removing an unused (probably since 1.x days) do_unexp_fiq() function. - Use pr_warn() rather than pr_warning(). - A number of cleanups (smp, footbridge, return_address)" * 'for-linus' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm: (21 commits) ARM: 8167/1: extend the reserved memory for initrd to be page aligned ARM: 8168/1: extend __init_end to a page align address ARM: 8169/1: l2c: parse cache properties from ePAPR definitions ARM: 8160/1: drop warning about return_address not using unwind tables ARM: 8161/1: footbridge: select machine dir based on ARCH_FOOTBRIDGE ARM: 8158/1: LLVMLinux: use static inline in ARM ftrace.h ARM: 8155/1: place sigpage at a random offset above stack ARM: 8154/1: use _install_special_mapping for sigpage ARM: 8153/1: Enable gcov support on the ARM architecture ARM: Avoid writing to control register on every exception ARM: 8152/1: Convert pr_warning to pr_warn ARM: remove unused do_unexp_fiq() function ARM: remove extraneous newline in show_regs() ARM: 8150/3: fiq: Replace default FIQ handler ARM: 8140/1: ep93xx: Enable DEBUG_LL_UART_PL01X ARM: 8139/1: versatile: Enable DEBUG_LL_UART_PL01X ARM: 8138/1: drop ISAR0 workaround for B15 ARM: 8136/1: sa1100: add Micro ASIC platform device ARM: 8131/1: arm/smp: Absorb boot_secondary() ARM: 8126/1: crypto: enable NEON SHA-384/SHA-512 for big endian ... |
