Under normal circumstances each device is given a part of the total write-back
cache that relates to its current avg writeout speed in relation to the other
devices.
min_ratio - allows one to assign a minimum portion of the write-back cache to
a particular device. This is useful in situations where you might want to
provide a minimum QoS. (One request for this feature came from flash based
storage people who wanted to avoid writing out at all costs - they of course
needed some pdflush hacks as well)
max_ratio - allows one to assign a maximum portion of the dirty limit to a
particular device. This is useful in situations where you want to avoid one
device taking all or most of the write-back cache. Eg. an NFS mount that is
prone to get stuck, or a FUSE mount which you don't trust to play fair.
Add "min_ratio" to /sys/class/bdi. This indicates the minimum percentage of
the global dirty threshold allocated to this bdi.

These values represent the nesting level of a namespace and pids living in it,
and it's always non-negative.
Turning this from int to unsigned int saves some space in pid.c (11 bytes on
x86 and 64 on ia64) by letting the compiler optimize the pid_nr_ns a bit.
E.g. on ia64 this removes the sign extension calls, which compiler adds to

Without tasklist_lock held task_session()/task_pgrp() can return NULL if the
caller races with setprgp()/setsid() which does detach_pid() + attach_pid().
This can happen even if task == current.
Intoduce the new helper, change_pid(), which should be used instead. This way
the caller always sees the special pid != NULL, either old or new.
Also change the prototype of attach_pid(), it always returns 0 and nobody

The global init has a lot of long standing problems with the unhandled fatal
signals.
- The "is_global_init(current)" check in get_signal_to_deliver()
protects only the main thread. Sub-thread can dequee the fatal
signal and shutdown the whole thread group except the main thread.
If it dequeues SIGSTOP /sbin/init will be stopped, this is not
right too. Note that we can't use is_global_init(->group_leader),
this breaks exec and this can't solve other problems we have.
- Even if afterwards ignored, the fatal signals sets SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT
on delivery. This breaks exec, has other bad implications, and this
is just wrong.
Introduce the new SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE flag to fix these problems. It also helps
to solve some other problems addressed by the subsequent patches.
Currently we use this flag for the global init only, but it could also be used
by kthreads and (perhaps) by the sub-namespace inits.

Based on discussion with Jiri and Roland.
In short: currently handle_stop_signal(SIGCONT, p) sends the notification to
p->parent, with this patch p itself notifies its parent when it becomes
running.
handle_stop_signal(SIGCONT) has to drop ->siglock temporary in order to notify
the parent with do_notify_parent_cldstop(). This leads to multiple problems:
- as Jiri Kosina pointed out, the stopped task can resume without
actually seeing SIGCONT which may have a handler.
- we race with another sig_kernel_stop() signal which may come in
that window.
- we race with sig_fatal() signals which may set SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT
in that window.
- we can't avoid taking tasklist_lock() while sending SIGCONT.
With this patch handle_stop_signal() just sets the new SIGNAL_CLD_CONTINUED
flag in p->signal->flags and returns. The notification is sent by the first
task which returns from finish_stop() (there should be at least one) or any
other signalled thread from get_signal_to_deliver().
This is a user-visible change. Say, currently kill(SIGCONT, stopped_child)
can't return without seeing SIGCHLD, with this patch SIGCHLD can be delayed
unpredictably. Another difference is that if the child is ptraced by another
process, CLD_CONTINUED may be delivered to ->real_parent after ptrace_detach()
while currently it always goes to the tracer which doesn't actually need this
notification. Hopefully not a problem.
The patch asks for the futher obvious cleanups, I'll send them separately.

2. by defining LCD connection types as constants, it allows only
valid possibilities
3. by removing the dependency of register bits definitions, those
can be later moved into the body of pxafb.c, instead of having
a regs-lcd.h around
Currently, only lubbock, mainstone, zylonite and littleton have been

These are no longer used in the PNP core either, so we can just remove
them completely.
It's possible that there are out-of-tree drivers that use these
interfaces. They should be changed to either (1) use PNP quirks
to work around broken hardware or firmware, or (2) use the sysfs
interfaces to control resource usage from userspace.

Add pnp_init_resources(struct pnp_dev *) to replace
pnp_init_resource_table(), which takes a pointer to the
pnp_resource_table itself. Passing only the pnp_dev * reduces
the possibility for error in the caller and removes the
pnp_resource_table implementation detail from the interface.
Even though pnp_init_resource_table() is exported, I did not
export pnp_init_resources() because it is used only by the PNP
core.

When we call protocol->get() and protocol->set() methods, we currently
supply pointers to both the pnp_dev and the pnp_resource_table even
though the pnp_resource_table should always be the one associated with
the pnp_dev.
This removes the pnp_resource_table arguments to make it clear that
these methods only operate on the specified pnp_dev.

Since both the IDE interface and SMC 91C111 Ethernet chip are on-board
devices, not SOC devices, move the platform device registration form the
common to the board specific code.
While at it, remove semicolon (which didn't break compilation only by
chance) from the AU1XXX_ATA_DDMA_REQ macro and do some renaming:
- change 'au1200_ide0_' variable name prefix to the mere 'ide_';
- change 'smc91x_' variable name prefix to 'smc91c111_' since that's the
name of the chip used on the boards;
- drop 'AU1XXX_' prefix from the names of macros describing IDE and Ethernet
on-board devices;
- change 'SMC91111_' to 'SMC91C111_', change 'IRQ' to 'INT' in the names of
the macros describing the Ethernet chip for consistency with the IDE
macros;
- change 'ATA_' to 'IDE_' and 'OFFSET' to 'SHIFT' (since this value is
indeed a shift count) in the names of the macros describing the IDE
interface.

Quota files cannot have tails because quota_write and quota_read functions do
not support them. So far when quota files did have tail, we just refused to
turn quotas on it. Sadly this check has been wrong and so there are now
plenty installations where quota files don't have NOTAIL flag set and so now
after fixing the check, they suddently fail to turn quotas on. Since it's
easy to unpack the tail from kernel, do this from reiserfs_quota_on() which
solves the problem and is generally nicer to users anyway.

Improve write performance by preventing the delayed_list from dumping all its
stripes onto the handle_list in one shot. Delayed stripes are now further
delayed by being held on the 'hold_list'. The 'hold_list' is bypassed when:
* a STRIPE_IO_STARTED stripe is found at the head of 'handle_list'
* 'handle_list' is empty and i/o is being done to satisfy full stripe-width
write requests
* 'bypass_count' is less than 'bypass_threshold'. By default the threshold
is 1, i.e. every other stripe handled is a preread stripe provided the
top two conditions are false.
Benchmark data:
System: 2x Xeon 5150, 4x SATA, mem=1GB
Baseline: 2.6.24-rc7
Configuration: mdadm --create /dev/md0 /dev/sd[b-e] -n 4 -l 5 --assume-clean
Test1: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/md0 bs=1024k count=2048
* patched: +33% (stripe_cache_size = 256), +25% (stripe_cache_size = 512)
Test2: tiobench --size 2048 --numruns 5 --block 4096 --block 131072 (XFS)
* patched: +13%
* patched + preread_bypass_threshold = 0: +37%
Changes since v1:
* reduce bypass_threshold from (chunk_size / sectors_per_chunk) to (1) and
make it configurable. This defaults to fairness and modest performance
gains out of the box.
Changes since v2:
* [neilb@suse.de]: kill STRIPE_PRIO_HI and preread_needed as they are not
necessary, the important change was clearing STRIPE_DELAYED in
add_stripe_bio and this has been moved out to make_request for the hang
fix.
* [neilb@suse.de]: simplify get_priority_stripe
* [dan.j.williams@intel.com]: reset the bypass_count when ->hold_list is
sampled empty (+11%)
* [dan.j.williams@intel.com]: decrement the bypass_count at the detection
of stripes being naturally promoted off of hold_list +2%. Note, resetting
bypass_count instead of decrementing on these events yields +4% but that is
probably too aggressive.
Changes since v3:

Adds different wiring mode for the LCD screen.
The legacy atmel LCDC IP uses a non standard color mode, "BGR-555.1" instead
"RGB-565". The major part of graphic stacks for embedded systems uses only
"RGB-565". It is possible to swap LCD IOs instead of doing this bit swapping
by software (See application note AT91SAM9 LCD Controller
http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc6300.pdf)
This wire swapping is done on the at91sam9rl-ek board (board code
using this patch will come later).

Prior to suspend, we allocate and switch to a new VT; after suspend, we switch
back to the original VT. This can be slow, and is completely unnecessary if
the framebuffer we're using can restore video properly.
This adds a hook that allows drivers to select whether or not to do this vt
switch, and changes the gxfb driver to call this hook. It also adds a module
param to gxfb to allow controlling of the vt switch (defaulting to no switch).
(Note: I'm not convinced that console_sem is the best way to protect this, but
we should probably have some form of locking..)

This cleans up a few MSR-using drivers in the following manner:
- Ensures MSRs are all defined in asm/geode.h, rather than in misc
places
- Makes the naming consistent; cs553[56] ones begin with MSR_,
GX-specific ones start with MSR_GX_, and LX-specific ones start
with MSR_LX_. Also, make the names match the data sheet.
- Use MSR names rather than numbers in source code
- Document the fact that the LX's MSR_PADSEL has the wrong value
in the data sheet. That's, uh, good to note.

As long as one or more GPIOs on a gpio chip are used its driver should not be
unloaded. The existing mechanism (gpiochip_remove failure) doesn't address
that, since rmmod can no longer be made to fail by having the cleanup code
report errors. Module usecounts are the solution.
Assuming standard "initialize struct to zero" policies, this change won't
affect SOC platform drivers. However, drivers for external chips (on I2C and
SPI busses) should be updated if they can be built as modules.

Prohibit users from probing preempt_schedule(). One way of prohibiting the
user from probing functions is by marking such functions with __kprobes. But
this method doesn't work for those functions, which are already marked to
different section like preempt_schedule() (belongs to __sched section). So we
use blacklist approach to refuse user from probing these functions.
In blacklist approach we populate the blacklisted function's starting address
and its size in kprobe_blacklist structure. Then we verify the user specified
address against start and end of the blacklisted function. So any attempt to
register probe on blacklisted functions will be rejected.

Filesystem capability support makes it possible to do away with (set)uid-0
based privilege and use capabilities instead. That is, with filesystem
support for capabilities but without this present patch, it is (conceptually)
possible to manage a system with capabilities alone and never need to obtain
privilege via (set)uid-0.
Of course, conceptually isn't quite the same as currently possible since few
user applications, certainly not enough to run a viable system, are currently
prepared to leverage capabilities to exercise privilege. Further, many
applications exist that may never get upgraded in this way, and the kernel
will continue to want to support their setuid-0 base privilege needs.
Where pure-capability applications evolve and replace setuid-0 binaries, it is
desirable that there be a mechanisms by which they can contain their
privilege. In addition to leveraging the per-process bounding and inheritable
sets, this should include suppressing the privilege of the uid-0 superuser
from the process' tree of children.
The feature added by this patch can be leveraged to suppress the privilege
associated with (set)uid-0. This suppression requires CAP_SETPCAP to
initiate, and only immediately affects the 'current' process (it is inherited
through fork()/exec()). This reimplementation differs significantly from the
historical support for securebits which was system-wide, unwieldy and which
has ultimately withered to a dead relic in the source of the modern kernel.
With this patch applied a process, that is capable(CAP_SETPCAP), can now drop
all legacy privilege (through uid=0) for itself and all subsequently
fork()'d/exec()'d children with:
prctl(PR_SET_SECUREBITS, 0x2f);
This patch represents a no-op unless CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES is
enabled at configure time.

This patch set is to free pages which is allocated by bootmem for
memory-hotremove. Some structures of memory management are allocated by
bootmem. ex) memmap, etc.
To remove memory physically, some of them must be freed according to
circumstance. This patch set makes basis to free those pages, and free
memmaps.
Basic my idea is using remain members of struct page to remember information
of users of bootmem (section number or node id). When the section is
removing, kernel can confirm it. By this information, some issues can be
solved.
1) When the memmap of removing section is allocated on other
section by bootmem, it should/can be free.
2) When the memmap of removing section is allocated on the
same section, it shouldn't be freed. Because the section has to be
logical memory offlined already and all pages must be isolated against
page allocater. If it is freed, page allocator may use it which will
be removed physically soon.
3) When removing section has other section's memmap,
kernel will be able to show easily which section should be removed
before it for user. (Not implemented yet)
4) When the above case 2), the page isolation will be able to check and skip
memmap's page when logical memory offline (offline_pages()).
Current page isolation code fails in this case because this page is
just reserved page and it can't distinguish this pages can be
removed or not. But, it will be able to do by this patch.
(Not implemented yet.)
5) The node information like pgdat has similar issues. But, this
will be able to be solved too by this.
(Not implemented yet, but, remembering node id in the pages.)
Fortunately, current bootmem allocator just keeps PageReserved flags,
and doesn't use any other members of page struct. The users of
bootmem doesn't use them too.
This patch:
This is to register information which is node or section's id. Kernel can
distinguish which node/section uses the pages allcated by bootmem. This is
basis for hot-remove sections or nodes.

loop, for as long as it may take until the tlb is flushed from somewhere else.
This patch introduces an architecture-specific huge_ptep_clear_flush()
function, which is called before the the set_huge_pte_at() in hugetlb_cow().

This patch replaces the mempolicy mode, mode_flags, and nodemask in the
shmem_sb_info struct with a struct mempolicy pointer, initialized to NULL.
This removes dependency on the details of mempolicy from shmem.c and hugetlbfs
inode.c and simplifies the interfaces.
mpol_parse_str() in mempolicy.c is changed to return, via a pointer to a
pointer arg, a struct mempolicy pointer on success. For MPOL_DEFAULT, the
returned pointer is NULL. Further, mpol_parse_str() now takes a 'no_context'
argument that causes the input nodemask to be stored in the w.user_nodemask of
the created mempolicy for use when the mempolicy is installed in a tmpfs inode
shared policy tree. At that time, any cpuset contextualization is applied to
the original input nodemask. This preserves the previous behavior where the
input nodemask was stored in the superblock. We can think of the returned
mempolicy as "context free".
Because mpol_parse_str() is now calling mpol_new(), we can remove from
mpol_to_str() the semantic checks that mpol_new() already performs.
Add 'no_context' parameter to mpol_to_str() to specify that it should format
the nodemask in w.user_nodemask for 'bind' and 'interleave' policies.
Change mpol_shared_policy_init() to take a pointer to a "context free" struct
mempolicy and to create a new, "contextualized" mempolicy using the mode,
mode_flags and user_nodemask from the input mempolicy.
Note: we know that the mempolicy passed to mpol_to_str() or
mpol_shared_policy_init() from a tmpfs superblock is "context free". This
is currently the only instance thereof. However, if we found more uses for
this concept, and introduced any ambiguity as to whether a mempolicy was
context free or not, we could add another internal mode flag to identify
context free mempolicies. Then, we could remove the 'no_context' argument
from mpol_to_str().
Added shmem_get_sbmpol() to return a reference counted superblock mempolicy,
if one exists, to pass to mpol_shared_policy_init(). We must add the
reference under the sb stat_lock to prevent races with replacement of the mpol
by remount. This reference is removed in mpol_shared_policy_init().

mm/shmem.c currently contains functions to parse and display memory policy
strings for the tmpfs 'mpol' mount option. Move this to mm/mempolicy.c with
the rest of the mempolicy support. With subsequent patches, we'll be able to
remove knowledge of the details [mode, flags, policy, ...] completely from
shmem.c
1) replace shmem_parse_mpol() in mm/shmem.c with mpol_parse_str() in
mm/mempolicy.c. Rework to use the policy_types[] array [used by
mpol_to_str()] to look up mode by name.
2) use mpol_to_str() to format policy for shmem_show_mpol(). mpol_to_str()
expects a pointer to a struct mempolicy, so temporarily construct one.
This will be replaced with a reference to a struct mempolicy in the tmpfs
superblock in a subsequent patch.
NOTE 1: I changed mpol_to_str() to use a colon ':' rather than an equal
sign '=' as the nodemask delimiter to match mpol_parse_str() and the
tmpfs/shmem mpol mount option formatting that now uses mpol_to_str(). This
is a user visible change to numa_maps, but then the addition of the mode
flags already changed the display. It makes sense to me to have the mounts
and numa_maps display the policy in the same format. However, if anyone
objects strongly, I can pass the desired nodemask delimeter as an arg to
mpol_to_str().
Note 2: Like show_numa_map(), I don't check the return code from
mpol_to_str(). I do use a longer buffer than the one provided by
show_numa_map(), which seems to have sufficed so far.

Now that we're using "preferred local" policy for system default, we need to
make this as fast as possible. Because of the variable size of the mempolicy
structure [based on size of nodemasks], the preferred_node may be in a
different cacheline from the mode. This can result in accessing an extra
cacheline in the normal case of system default policy. Suspect this is the
cause of an observed 2-3% slowdown in page fault testing relative to kernel
without this patch series.
To alleviate this, use an internal mode flag, MPOL_F_LOCAL in the mempolicy
flags member which is guaranteed [?] to be in the same cacheline as the mode
itself.
Verified that reworked mempolicy now performs slightly better on 25-rc8-mm1
for both anon and shmem segments with system default and vma [preferred local]
policy.

After further discussion with Christoph Lameter, it has become clear that my
earlier attempts to clean up the mempolicy reference counting were a bit of
overkill in some areas, resulting in superflous ref/unref in what are usually
fast paths. In other areas, further inspection reveals that I botched the
unref for interleave policies.
A separate patch, suitable for upstream/stable trees, fixes up the known
errors in the previous attempt to fix reference counting.
This patch reworks the memory policy referencing counting and, one hopes,
simplifies the code. Maybe I'll get it right this time.
See the update to the numa_memory_policy.txt document for a discussion of
memory policy reference counting that motivates this patch.
Summary:
Lookup of mempolicy, based on (vma, address) need only add a reference for
shared policy, and we need only unref the policy when finished for shared
policies. So, this patch backs out all of the unneeded extra reference
counting added by my previous attempt. It then unrefs only shared policies
when we're finished with them, using the mpol_cond_put() [conditional put]
helper function introduced by this patch.
Note that shmem_swapin() calls read_swap_cache_async() with a dummy vma
containing just the policy. read_swap_cache_async() can call alloc_page_vma()
multiple times, so we can't let alloc_page_vma() unref the shared policy in
this case. To avoid this, we make a copy of any non-null shared policy and
remove the MPOL_F_SHARED flag from the copy. This copy occurs before reading
a page [or multiple pages] from swap, so the overhead should not be an issue
here.
I introduced a new static inline function "mpol_cond_copy()" to copy the
shared policy to an on-stack policy and remove the flags that would require a
conditional free. The current implementation of mpol_cond_copy() assumes that
the struct mempolicy contains no pointers to dynamically allocated structures
that must be duplicated or reference counted during copy.

Document mempolicy return value reference semantics assumed by the rest of the
mempolicy code for the set_ and get_policy vm_ops in <linux/mm.h>--where the
prototypes are defined--to inform any future mempolicy vm_op writers what the
rest of the subsystem expects of them.

As part of yet another rework of mempolicy reference counting, we want to be
able to identify shared policies efficiently, because they have an extra ref
taken on lookup that needs to be removed when we're finished using the policy.
Note: the extra ref is required because the policies are
shared between tasks/processes and can be changed/freed
by one task while another task is using them--e.g., for
page allocation.
Building on David Rientjes mempolicy "mode flags" enhancement, this patch
indicates a "shared" policy by setting a new MPOL_F_SHARED flag in the flags
member of the struct mempolicy added by David. MPOL_F_SHARED, and any future
"internal mode flags" are reserved from bit zero up, as they will never be
passed in the upper bits of the mode argument of a mempolicy API.
I set the MPOL_F_SHARED flag when the policy is installed in the shared policy
rb-tree. Don't need/want to clear the flag when removing from the tree as the
mempolicy is freed [unref'd] internally to the sp_delete() function. However,
a task could hold another reference on this mempolicy from a prior lookup. We
need the MPOL_F_SHARED flag to stay put so that any tasks holding a ref will
unref, eventually freeing, the mempolicy.
A later patch in this series will introduce a function to conditionally unref
[mpol_free] a policy. The MPOL_F_SHARED flag is one reason [currently the
only reason] to unref/free a policy via the conditional free.
