c4be0c1dc4 filesystem freeze: add error handling of write_super_lockfs/unlockfs
Currently, ext3 in mainline Linux doesn't have the freeze feature which
suspends write requests.  So, we cannot take a backup which keeps the
filesystem's consistency with the storage device's features (snapshot and
replication) while it is mounted.

In many case, a commercial filesystem (e.g.  VxFS) has the freeze feature
and it would be used to get the consistent backup.

If Linux's standard filesystem ext3 has the freeze feature, we can do it
without a commercial filesystem.

So I have implemented the ioctls of the freeze feature.
I think we can take the consistent backup with the following steps.
1. Freeze the filesystem with the freeze ioctl.
2. Separate the replication volume or create the snapshot
   with the storage device's feature.
3. Unfreeze the filesystem with the unfreeze ioctl.
4. Take the backup from the separated replication volume
   or the snapshot.

This patch:

VFS:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that they can return an error.
Rename write_super_lockfs and unlockfs of the super block operation
freeze_fs and unfreeze_fs to avoid a confusion.

ext3, ext4, xfs, gfs2, jfs:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that write_super_lockfs returns an error if needed,
and unlockfs always returns 0.

reiserfs:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that they always return 0 (success) to keep a current behavior.

237889bf0a ACPI : Use RSDT instead of XSDT by adding boot option of "acpi=rsdt"
On some boxes there exist both RSDT and XSDT table. But unfortunately
sometimes there exists the following error when XSDT table is used:
   a. 32/64X address mismatch
   b. The 32/64X FACS address mismatch

   In such case the boot option of "acpi=rsdt" is provided so that
RSDT is tried instead of XSDT table when the system can't work well.

9fe5817f19 regulator: Add basic DocBook manual
Add a basic DocBook manual for the regulator API. This is much more
skeletal than the existing text documentation, the main benefit is to
provide a skeleton for automatic generation of a manual based on the
kerneldoc for the API.

Since large portions of the text are lifted from the existing text format
documentation written by Liam Girdwood much of the credit belongs to
him.

7ad68e2f97 regulator: sysfs attribute reduction (v2)
Clean up the sysfs interface to regulators by only exposing the
attributes that can be properly displayed.  For example: when a
particular regulator method is needed to display the value, only
create that attribute when that method exists.

This cleaned-up interface is much more comprehensible.  Most
regulators only support a subset of the possible methods, so
often more than half the attributes would be meaningless.  Many
"not defined" values are no longer necessary.  (But handling
of out-of-range values still looks a bit iffy.)

Documentation is updated to reflect that few of the attributes
are *always* present, and to briefly explain why a regulator may
not have a given attribute.

This adds object code, about a dozen bytes more than was removed
by the preceding patch, but saves a bunch of per-regulator data
associated with the now-removed attributes.  So there's a net
reduction in memory footprint.

999cd8a450 cgroups: add a per-subsystem hierarchy_mutex
These patches introduce new locking/refcount support for cgroups to
reduce the need for subsystems to call cgroup_lock(). This will
ultimately allow the atomicity of cgroup_rmdir() (which was removed
recently) to be restored.

These three patches give:

1/3 - introduce a per-subsystem hierarchy_mutex which a subsystem can
     use to prevent changes to its own cgroup tree

2/3 - use hierarchy_mutex in place of calling cgroup_lock() in the
     memory controller

3/3 - introduce a css_tryget() function similar to the one recently
      proposed by Kamezawa, but avoiding spurious refcount failures in
      the event of a race between a css_tryget() and an unsuccessful
      cgroup_rmdir()

Future patches will likely involve:

- using hierarchy mutex in place of cgroup_lock() in more subsystems
 where appropriate

- restoring the atomicity of cgroup_rmdir() with respect to cgroup_create()

This patch:

Add a hierarchy_mutex to the cgroup_subsys object that protects changes to
the hierarchy observed by that subsystem.  It is taken by the cgroup
subsystem (in addition to cgroup_mutex) for the following operations:

- linking a cgroup into that subsystem's cgroup tree
- unlinking a cgroup from that subsystem's cgroup tree
- moving the subsystem to/from a hierarchy (including across the
  bind() callback)

Thus if the subsystem holds its own hierarchy_mutex, it can safely
traverse its own hierarchy.

03f3c43364 memcg: fix swap accounting leak
Fix swapin charge operation of memcg.

Now, memcg has hooks to swap-out operation and checks SwapCache is really
unused or not.  That check depends on contents of struct page.  I.e.  If
PageAnon(page) && page_mapped(page), the page is recoginized as
still-in-use.

Now, reuse_swap_page() calles delete_from_swap_cache() before establishment
of any rmap. Then, in followinig sequence

	(Page fault with WRITE)
	try_charge() (charge += PAGESIZE)
	commit_charge() (Check page_cgroup is used or not..)
	reuse_swap_page()
		-> delete_from_swapcache()
			-> mem_cgroup_uncharge_swapcache() (charge -= PAGESIZE)
	......
New charge is uncharged soon....
To avoid this,  move commit_charge() after page_mapcount() goes up to 1.
By this,

	try_charge()		(usage += PAGESIZE)
	reuse_swap_page()	(may usage -= PAGESIZE if PCG_USED is set)
	commit_charge()		(If page_cgroup is not marked as PCG_USED,
				 add new charge.)
Accounting will be correct.

Changelog (v2) -> (v3)
  - fixed invalid charge to swp_entry==0.
  - updated documentation.
Changelog (v1) -> (v2)
  - fixed comment.

a7885eb8ad memcg: swappiness
Currently, /proc/sys/vm/swappiness can change swappiness ratio for global
reclaim.  However, memcg reclaim doesn't have tuning parameter for itself.

In general, the optimal swappiness depend on workload.  (e.g.  hpc
workload need to low swappiness than the others.)

Then, per cgroup swappiness improve administrator tunability.

8c7c6e34a1 memcg: mem+swap controller core
This patch implements per cgroup limit for usage of memory+swap.  However
there are SwapCache, double counting of swap-cache and swap-entry is
avoided.

Mem+Swap controller works as following.
  - memory usage is limited by memory.limit_in_bytes.
  - memory + swap usage is limited by memory.memsw_limit_in_bytes.

This has following benefits.
  - A user can limit total resource usage of mem+swap.

    Without this, because memory resource controller doesn't take care of
    usage of swap, a process can exhaust all the swap (by memory leak.)
    We can avoid this case.

    And Swap is shared resource but it cannot be reclaimed (goes back to memory)
    until it's used. This characteristic can be trouble when the memory
    is divided into some parts by cpuset or memcg.
    Assume group A and group B.
    After some application executes, the system can be..

    Group A -- very large free memory space but occupy 99% of swap.
    Group B -- under memory shortage but cannot use swap...it's nearly full.

    Ability to set appropriate swap limit for each group is required.

Maybe someone wonder "why not swap but mem+swap ?"

  - The global LRU(kswapd) can swap out arbitrary pages. Swap-out means
    to move account from memory to swap...there is no change in usage of
    mem+swap.

    In other words, when we want to limit the usage of swap without affecting
    global LRU, mem+swap limit is better than just limiting swap.

Accounting target information is stored in swap_cgroup which is
per swap entry record.

Charge is done as following.
  map
    - charge  page and memsw.

  unmap
    - uncharge page/memsw if not SwapCache.

  swap-out (__delete_from_swap_cache)
    - uncharge page
    - record mem_cgroup information to swap_cgroup.

  swap-in (do_swap_page)
    - charged as page and memsw.
      record in swap_cgroup is cleared.
      memsw accounting is decremented.

  swap-free (swap_free())
    - if swap entry is freed, memsw is uncharged by PAGE_SIZE.

There are people work under never-swap environments and consider swap as
something bad. For such people, this mem+swap controller extension is just an
overhead.  This overhead is avoided by config or boot option.
(see Kconfig. detail is not in this patch.)

TODO:
 - maybe more optimization can be don in swap-in path. (but not very safe.)
   But we just do simple accounting at this stage.

Config and control variable for mem+swap controller.

This patch adds CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP
(memory resource controller swap extension.)

For accounting swap, it's obvious that we have to use additional memory to
remember "who uses swap".  This adds more overhead.  So, it's better to
offer "choice" to users.  This patch adds 2 choices.

This patch adds 2 parameters to enable swap extension or not.
  - CONFIG
  - boot option
