58319b802a PCI: Hotplug core: remove 'name'
Now that the PCI core manages the 'name' for each individual
hotplug driver, and all drivers (except rpaphp) have been converted
to use hotplug_slot_name(), there is no need for the PCI hotplug
core to drag around its own copy of name either.

0ad772ec46 PCI, PCI Hotplug: introduce slot_name helpers
In preparation for cleaning up the various hotplug drivers
such that they don't have to manage their own 'name' parameters
anymore, we provide the following convenience functions:

	pci_slot_name()
	hotplug_slot_name()

These helpers will be used by individual hotplug drivers.

828f37683e PCI: update pci_create_slot() to take a 'hotplug' param
Slot detection drivers can co-exist with hotplug drivers. The names
of the detected/claimed slots may be different depending on module
load order.

For legacy reasons, we need to allow hotplug drivers to override
the slot name if a detection driver is loaded first (and they find
the same slots).

Creating and overriding slot names should be an atomic operation,
otherwise you get a locking nightmare as various drivers race to
call pci_create_slot().

pci_create_slot() is already serialized by grabbing the pci_bus_sem.

We update the API and add a 'hotplug' param, which is:

	set if the caller is a hotplug driver
	NULL if the caller is a detection driver

pci_create_slot() does not actually use the 'hotplug' parameter in this
patch. A later patch will add the logic that uses it.

1359f2701b PCI Hotplug core: add 'name' param pci_hp_register interface
Update pci_hp_register() to take a const char *name parameter.

The motivation for this is to clean up the individual hotplug
drivers so that each one does not have to manage its own name.
The PCI core should be the place where we manage the name.

We update the interface and all callsites first, in a
"no functional change" manner, and clean up the drivers later.

8dd7f8036c PCI: add support for function level reset
Sometimes, it's necessary to enable software's ability to quiesce and
reset endpoint hardware with function-level granularity, so provide
support for it.

The patch implement Function Level Reset(FLR) feature following PCI-e
spec. And this is the first step. We would add more generic method, like
D0/D3, to allow more devices support this function.

The patch contains two functions. pcie_reset_function() is the new
driver API, and, contains some action to quiesce a device.  The other
function is a helper:  pcie_execute_reset_function() just executes the
reset for a particular device function.

Current the usage model is in KVM. Function reset is necessary for
assigning device to a guest, or moving it between partitions.

For Function Level Reset(FLR), please refer to PCI Express spec chapter
6.6.2.

7ff93f8b7e mlx4_core: Multiple port type support
Multi-protocol adapters support different port types.  Each consumer
of mlx4_core queries for supported port types; in particular mlx4_ib

f5adfaa372 ACPI: Add "acpi.power_nocheck=1" to disable power state check in power transition
Maybe the incorrect power state is returned on the bogus bios, which
is different with the real power state. For example: the bios returns D0
state and the real power state is D3. OS expects to set the device to D0
state. In  such case if OS uses the power state returned by the BIOS and
checks the device power state very strictly in power transition, the device
can't be transited to the correct power state.

   So the boot option of "acpi.power_nocheck=1" is added to avoid checking
the device power in the course of device power transition.

a30d46c042 mfd: twl4030 IRQ handling update
- Move it into a separate file; clean and streamline it
 - Restructure the init code for reuse during secondary dispatch
 - Support both levels (primary, secondary) of IRQ dispatch
 - Use a workqueue for irq mask/unmask and trigger configuration

Code for two subchips currently share that secondary handler code.
One is the power subchip; its IRQs are now handled by this core,
courtesy of this patch.  The other is the GPIO module, which will
be supported through a later patch.

There are also minor changes to the header file, mostly related
to GPIO support; nothing yet in mainline cares about those.  A
few references to OMAP-specific symbols are disabled; when they
can all be removed, the TWL4030 support ceases being OMAP-specific.

67e67ceaac core_param() for genuinely core kernel parameters
There are a lot of one-liner uses of __setup() in the kernel: they're
cumbersome and not queryable (definitely not settable) via /sys.  Yet
it's ugly to simplify them to module_param(), because by default that
inserts a prefix of the module name (usually filename).

So, introduce a "core_param".  The parameter gets no prefix, but
appears in /sys/module/kernel/parameters/ (if non-zero perms arg).  I
thought about using the name "core", but that's more common than
"kernel".  And if you create a module called "kernel", you will die
a horrible death.

9b473de872 param: Fix duplicate module prefixes
Instead of insisting each new module_param sysfs entry is unique,
handle the case where it already exists (for builtin modules).

The current code assumes that all identical prefixes are together in
the section: true for normal uses, but not necessarily so if someone
overrides MODULE_PARAM_PREFIX.  More importantly, it's not true with
the new "core_param()" code which uses "kernel" as a prefix.

This simplifies the caller for the builtin case, at a slight loss of
efficiency (we do the lookup every time to see if the directory
exists).

d4430d62fa [PATCH] beginning of methods conversion
To keep the size of changesets sane we split the switch by drivers;
to keep the damn thing bisectable we do the following:
	1) rename the affected methods, add ones with correct
prototypes, make (few) callers handle both.  That's this changeset.
	2) for each driver convert to new methods.  *ALL* drivers
are converted in this series.
	3) kill the old (renamed) methods.

Note that it _is_ a flagday; all in-tree drivers are converted and by the
end of this series no trace of old methods remain.  The only reason why
we do that this way is to keep the damn thing bisectable and allow per-driver
debugging if anything goes wrong.

New methods:
	open(bdev, mode)
	release(disk, mode)
	ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg)		/* Called without BKL */
	compat_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg)
	locked_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg)	/* Called with BKL, legacy */

a5598ca0d4 powerpc/oprofile: Fix mutex locking for cell spu-oprofile
The issue is the SPU code is not holding the kernel mutex lock while
adding samples to the kernel buffer.

This patch creates per SPU buffers to hold the data.  Data
is added to the buffers from in interrupt context.  The data
is periodically pushed to the kernel buffer via a new Oprofile
function oprofile_put_buff(). The oprofile_put_buff() function
is called via a work queue enabling the funtion to acquire the
mutex lock.

The existing user controls for adjusting the per CPU buffer
size is used to control the size of the per SPU buffers.
Similarly, overflows of the SPU buffers are reported by
incrementing the per CPU buffer stats.  This eliminates the
need to have architecture specific controls for the per SPU
buffers which is not acceptable to the OProfile user tool
maintainer.

The export of the oprofile add_event_entry() is removed as it
is no longer needed given this patch.

Note, this patch has not addressed the issue of indexing arrays
by the spu number.  This still needs to be fixed as the spu
numbering is not guarenteed to be 0 to max_num_spus-1.

326bb8a5a1 leds: Make default trigger fields const
The default_trigger fields of struct gpio_led and thus struct
led_classdev are pretty much always assigned from a string literal,
which means the string can't be modified.  Which is fine, since there is
no reason to modify the string and in fact it never is.

But they should be marked const to prevent such code from being added,
to prevent warnings if -Wwrite-strings is used, when assigned from a
constant string other than a string literal (which produces a warning
under current kernel compiler flags), and for general good coding
practices.

aa42d7c613 PCI: introduce an pci_ioremap(pdev, barnr) function
A common thing in many PCI drivers is to ioremap() an entire bar.  This
is a slightly fragile thing right now, needing both an address and a
size, and many driver writers do.. various things there.

This patch introduces an pci_ioremap() function taking just a PCI device
struct and the bar number as arguments, and figures this all out itself,
in one place.  In addition, we can add various sanity checks to this
function (the patch already checks to make sure that the bar in question
really is a MEM bar; few to no drivers do that sort of thing).

Hopefully with this type of API we get less chance of mistakes in
drivers with ioremap() operations.

0235c4fc7f PCI PM: Introduce function pci_wake_from_d3
Many device drivers use the following sequence of statements to enable
the device to wake up the system while being in the D3_hot or D3_cold
low power state:

        pci_enable_wake(pdev, PCI_D3hot, 1);
        pci_enable_wake(pdev, PCI_D3cold, 1);

However, the second call is not necessary if the first one succeeds (the
ordering of the statements above doesn't matter here) and it may even be
harmful, because we are not supposed to enable PME# after the wake-up
power has been enabled for the device.

To allow drivers to overcome this problem, introduce function
pci_wake_from_d3() that will enable the device to wake up the system
from any of D3_hot and D3_cold as long as the wake-up from at least one
of them is supported.

edbc25caaa PCI: remove dynids.use_driver_data
The driver flag dynids.use_driver_data is almost consistently not set,
and causes more problems than it solves.  It was initially intended as a
flag to indicate whether a driver's usage of driver_data had been
carefully inspected and was ready for values from userspace.  That audit
was never done, so most drivers just get a 0 for driver_data when new
IDs are added from userspace via sysfs.  So remove the flag, allowing

01e8ef11bc x86: sysfs: kill owner field from attribute
Tejun's commit 7b595756ec made sysfs
attribute->owner unnecessary.  But the field was left in the structure to
ease the merge.  It's been over a year since that change and it is now
time to start killing attribute->owner along with its users - one arch at
a time!

This patch is attempt #1 to get rid of attribute->owner only for
CONFIG_X86_64 or CONFIG_X86_32 .  We will deal with other arches later on
as and when possible - avr32 will be the next since that is something I
can test.  Compile (make allyesconfig / make allmodconfig / custom config)
and boot tested.

akpm: the idea is that we put the declaration of sttribute.owner inside
`#ifndef CONFIG_X86'.  But that proved to be too ambitious for now because
new usages kept on turning up in subsystem trees.

85a0ee342e kdump: add is_vmcore_usable() and vmcore_unusable()
The usage of elfcorehdr_addr has changed recently such that being set to
ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX is used by is_kdump_kernel() to indicate if the code is
executing in a kernel executed as a crash kernel.

However, arch/ia64/kernel/setup.c:reserve_elfcorehdr will rest
elfcorehdr_addr to ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX on error, which means any subsequent
calls to is_kdump_kernel() will return 0, even though they should return
1.

Ok, at this point in time there are no subsequent calls, but I think its
fair to say that there is ample scope for error or at the very least
confusion.

This patch add an extra state, ELFCORE_ADDR_ERR, which indicates that
elfcorehdr_addr was passed on the command line, and thus execution is
taking place in a crashdump kernel, but vmcore can't be used for some
reason.  This is tested for using is_vmcore_usable() and set using
vmcore_unusable().  A subsequent patch makes use of this new code.

To summarise, the states that elfcorehdr_addr can now be in are as follows:

ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX: not a crashdump kernel
ELFCORE_ADDR_ERR: crashdump kernel but vmcore is unusable
any other value:  crash dump kernel and vmcore is usable

57cac4d188 kdump: make elfcorehdr_addr independent of CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE
o elfcorehdr_addr is used by not only the code under CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE
  but also by the code which is not inside CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE.  For
  example, is_kdump_kernel() is used by powerpc code to determine if
  kernel is booting after a panic then use previous kernel's TCE table.
  So even if CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE is not set in second kernel, one should be
  able to correctly determine that we are booting after a panic and setup
  calgary iommu accordingly.

o So remove the assumption that elfcorehdr_addr is under
  CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE.

o Move definition of elfcorehdr_addr to arch dependent crash files.
  (Unfortunately crash dump does not have an arch independent file
  otherwise that would have been the best place).

o kexec.c is not the right place as one can Have CRASH_DUMP enabled in
  second kernel without KEXEC being enabled.

o I don't see sh setup code parsing the command line for
  elfcorehdr_addr.  I am wondering how does vmcore interface work on sh.
  Anyway, I am atleast defining elfcoredhr_addr so that compilation is not
  broken on sh.

Fedora has been carrying a trivial patch to change the hard-wired value for
this default, since Fedora 8.  The default default can't change safely
because there are old GDB versions out there (all before 6.7) that are
confused by the core dump files created by the MMF_DUMP_ELF_HEADERS setting.

52d4b9ac0b memcg: allocate all page_cgroup at boot
Allocate all page_cgroup at boot and remove page_cgroup poitner from
struct page.  This patch adds an interface as

 struct page_cgroup *lookup_page_cgroup(struct page*)

All FLATMEM/DISCONTIGMEM/SPARSEMEM  and MEMORY_HOTPLUG is supported.

Remove page_cgroup pointer reduces the amount of memory by
 - 4 bytes per PAGE_SIZE.
 - 8 bytes per PAGE_SIZE
if memory controller is disabled. (even if configured.)

On usual 8GB x86-32 server, this saves 8MB of NORMAL_ZONE memory.
On my x86-64 server with 48GB of memory, this saves 96MB of memory.
I think this reduction makes sense.

By pre-allocation, kmalloc/kfree in charge/uncharge are removed.
This means
  - we're not necessary to be afraid of kmalloc faiulre.
    (this can happen because of gfp_mask type.)
  - we can avoid calling kmalloc/kfree.
  - we can avoid allocating tons of small objects which can be fragmented.
  - we can know what amount of memory will be used for this extra-lru handling.

I added printk message as

	"allocated %ld bytes of page_cgroup"
        "please try cgroup_disable=memory option if you don't want"

maybe enough informative for users.

cc31edceee cgroups: convert tasks file to use a seq_file with shared pid array
Rather than pre-generating the entire text for the "tasks" file each
time the file is opened, we instead just generate/update the array of
process ids and use a seq_file to report these to userspace.  All open
file handles on the same "tasks" file can share a pid array, which may
be updated any time that no thread is actively reading the array.  By
sharing the array, the potential for userspace to DoS the system by
opening many handles on the same "tasks" file is removed.

[Based on a patch by Lai Jiangshan, extended to use seq_file]

0e4fb5e283 ext3: add an option to control error handling on file data
If the journal doesn't abort when it gets an IO error in file data blocks,
the file data corruption will spread silently.  Because most of
applications and commands do buffered writes without fsync(), they don't
notice the IO error.  It's scary for mission critical systems.  On the
other hand, if the journal aborts whenever it gets an IO error in file
data blocks, the system will easily become inoperable.  So this patch
introduces a filesystem option to determine whether it aborts the journal
or just call printk() when it gets an IO error in file data.

If you mount a ext3 fs with data_err=abort option, it aborts on file data
write error.  If you mount it with data_err=ignore, it doesn't abort, just
call printk().  data_err=ignore is the default.

dc52ddc0e6 container freezer: implement freezer cgroup subsystem
This patch implements a new freezer subsystem in the control groups
framework.  It provides a way to stop and resume execution of all tasks in
a cgroup by writing in the cgroup filesystem.

The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a file named
freezer.state.  Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks
in the cgroup.  Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in
the cgroup.  Reading will return the current state.

* Examples of usage :

   # mkdir /containers/freezer
   # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer  /containers
   # mkdir /containers/0
   # echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks

to get status of the freezer subsystem :

   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   RUNNING

to freeze all tasks in the container :

   # echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   FREEZING
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   FROZEN

to unfreeze all tasks in the container :

   # echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   RUNNING

This is the basic mechanism which should do the right thing for user space
task in a simple scenario.

It's important to note that freezing can be incomplete.  In that case we
return EBUSY.  This means that some tasks in the cgroup are busy doing
something that prevents us from completely freezing the cgroup at this
time.  After EBUSY, the cgroup will remain partially frozen -- reflected
by freezer.state reporting "FREEZING" when read.  The state will remain
"FREEZING" until one of these things happens:

	1) Userspace cancels the freezing operation by writing "RUNNING" to
		the freezer.state file
	2) Userspace retries the freezing operation by writing "FROZEN" to
		the freezer.state file (writing "FREEZING" is not legal
		and returns EIO)
	3) The tasks that blocked the cgroup from entering the "FROZEN"
		state disappear from the cgroup's set of tasks.

83224b0837 container freezer: add TIF_FREEZE flag to all architectures
This patch series introduces a cgroup subsystem that utilizes the swsusp
freezer to freeze a group of tasks.  It's immediately useful for batch job
management scripts.  It should also be useful in the future for
implementing container checkpoint/restart.

The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a cgroup file
named freezer.state.  Reading freezer.state will return the current state
of the cgroup.  Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks
in the cgroup.  Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in
the cgroup.

* Examples of usage :

   # mkdir /containers/freezer
   # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer  /containers
   # mkdir /containers/0
   # echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks

to get status of the freezer subsystem :

   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   RUNNING

to freeze all tasks in the container :

   # echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   FREEZING
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   FROZEN

to unfreeze all tasks in the container :

   # echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   RUNNING

This patch:

The first step in making the refrigerator() available to all
architectures, even for those without power management.

The purpose of such a change is to be able to use the refrigerator() in a
new control group subsystem which will implement a control group freezer.

e575f111dc coredump_filter: add hugepage dumping
Presently hugepage's vma has a VM_RESERVED flag in order not to be
swapped.  But a VM_RESERVED vma isn't core dumped because this flag is
often used for some kernel vmas (e.g.  vmalloc, sound related).

Thus hugepages are never dumped and it can't be debugged easily.  Many
developers want hugepages to be included into core-dump.

However, We can't read generic VM_RESERVED area because this area is often
IO mapping area.  then these area reading may change device state.  it is
definitly undesiable side-effect.

So adding a hugepage specific bit to the coredump filter is better.  It
will be able to hugepage core dumping and doesn't cause any side-effect to
any i/o devices.

In additional, libhugetlb use hugetlb private mapping pages as anonymous
page.  Then, hugepage private mapping pages should be core dumped by
default.

Then, /proc/[pid]/core_dump_filter has two new bits.

 - bit 5 mean hugetlb private mapping pages are dumped or not. (default: yes)
 - bit 6 mean hugetlb shared mapping pages are dumped or not.  (default: no)

I tested by following method.

% ulimit -c unlimited
% ./crash_hugepage  50
% ./crash_hugepage  50  -p
% ls -lh
% gdb ./crash_hugepage core
%
% echo 0x43 > /proc/self/coredump_filter

% gdb ./crash_hugepage core

int main(int argc, char** argv){
	char* p;
	int ch;
	int mmap_flags = MAP_SHARED;
	int fd;
	int nr_pages;

	while((ch = getopt(argc, argv, "p")) != -1) {
		switch (ch) {
		case 'p':
			mmap_flags &= ~MAP_SHARED;
			mmap_flags |= MAP_PRIVATE;
			break;
		default:
			/* nothing*/
			break;
		}
	}
	argc -= optind;
	argv += optind;

	if (argc == 0){
		printf("need # of pages\n");
		exit(1);
	}

	nr_pages = atoi(argv[0]);
	if (nr_pages < 2) {
		printf("nr_pages must >2\n");
		exit(1);
	}

	fd = hugetlbfs_unlinked_fd();
	p = mmap(NULL, nr_pages * gethugepagesize(),
		 PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, mmap_flags, fd, 0);

	sleep(2);

	*(p + gethugepagesize()) = 1; /* COW */

db64fe0225 mm: rewrite vmap layer
Rewrite the vmap allocator to use rbtrees and lazy tlb flushing, and
provide a fast, scalable percpu frontend for small vmaps (requires a
slightly different API, though).

The biggest problem with vmap is actually vunmap.  Presently this requires
a global kernel TLB flush, which on most architectures is a broadcast IPI
to all CPUs to flush the cache.  This is all done under a global lock.  As
the number of CPUs increases, so will the number of vunmaps a scaled
workload will want to perform, and so will the cost of a global TLB flush.
 This gives terrible quadratic scalability characteristics.

Another problem is that the entire vmap subsystem works under a single
lock.  It is a rwlock, but it is actually taken for write in all the fast
paths, and the read locking would likely never be run concurrently anyway,
so it's just pointless.

This is a rewrite of vmap subsystem to solve those problems.  The existing
vmalloc API is implemented on top of the rewritten subsystem.

The TLB flushing problem is solved by using lazy TLB unmapping.  vmap
addresses do not have to be flushed immediately when they are vunmapped,
because the kernel will not reuse them again (would be a use-after-free)
until they are reallocated.  So the addresses aren't allocated again until
a subsequent TLB flush.  A single TLB flush then can flush multiple
vunmaps from each CPU.

XEN and PAT and such do not like deferred TLB flushing because they can't
always handle multiple aliasing virtual addresses to a physical address.
They now call vm_unmap_aliases() in order to flush any deferred mappings.
That call is very expensive (well, actually not a lot more expensive than
a single vunmap under the old scheme), however it should be OK if not
called too often.

The virtual memory extent information is stored in an rbtree rather than a
linked list to improve the algorithmic scalability.

There is a per-CPU allocator for small vmaps, which amortizes or avoids
global locking.

To use the per-CPU interface, the vm_map_ram / vm_unmap_ram interfaces
must be used in place of vmap and vunmap.  Vmalloc does not use these
interfaces at the moment, so it will not be quite so scalable (although it
will use lazy TLB flushing).

As a quick test of performance, I ran a test that loops in the kernel,
linearly mapping then touching then unmapping 4 pages.  Different numbers
of tests were run in parallel on an 4 core, 2 socket opteron.  Results are
in nanoseconds per map+touch+unmap.

threads           vanilla         vmap rewrite
1                 14700           2900
2                 33600           3000
4                 49500           2800
8                 70631           2900

So with a 8 cores, the rewritten version is already 25x faster.

In a slightly more realistic test (although with an older and less
scalable version of the patch), I ripped the not-very-good vunmap batching
code out of XFS, and implemented the large buffer mapping with vm_map_ram
and vm_unmap_ram...  along with a couple of other tricks, I was able to
speed up a large directory workload by 20x on a 64 CPU system.  I believe
vmap/vunmap is actually sped up a lot more than 20x on such a system, but
I'm running into other locks now.  vmap is pretty well blown off the
profiles.

af936a1606 vmscan: unevictable LRU scan sysctl
This patch adds a function to scan individual or all zones' unevictable
lists and move any pages that have become evictable onto the respective
zone's inactive list, where shrink_inactive_list() will deal with them.

Adds sysctl to scan all nodes, and per node attributes to individual
nodes' zones.

Kosaki: If evictable page found in unevictable lru when write
/proc/sys/vm/scan_unevictable_pages, print filename and file offset of
these pages.

64d6519dda swap: cull unevictable pages in fault path
In the fault paths that install new anonymous pages, check whether the
page is evictable or not using lru_cache_add_active_or_unevictable().  If
the page is evictable, just add it to the active lru list [via the pagevec
cache], else add it to the unevictable list.

This "proactive" culling in the fault path mimics the handling of mlocked
pages in Nick Piggin's series to keep mlocked pages off the lru lists.

Notes:

1) This patch is optional--e.g., if one is concerned about the
   additional test in the fault path.  We can defer the moving of
   nonreclaimable pages until when vmscan [shrink_*_list()]
   encounters them.  Vmscan will only need to handle such pages
   once, but if there are a lot of them it could impact system
   performance.

2) The 'vma' argument to page_evictable() is require to notice that
   we're faulting a page into an mlock()ed vma w/o having to scan the
   page's rmap in the fault path.   Culling mlock()ed anon pages is
   currently the only reason for this patch.

3) We can't cull swap pages in read_swap_cache_async() because the
   vma argument doesn't necessarily correspond to the swap cache
   offset passed in by swapin_readahead().  This could [did!] result
   in mlocking pages in non-VM_LOCKED vmas if [when] we tried to
   cull in this path.

4) Move set_pte_at() to after where we add page to lru to keep it
   hidden from other tasks that might walk the page table.
   We already do it in this order in do_anonymous() page.  And,
   these are COW'd anon pages.  Is this safe?

b291f00039 mlock: mlocked pages are unevictable
Make sure that mlocked pages also live on the unevictable LRU, so kswapd
will not scan them over and over again.

This is achieved through various strategies:

1) add yet another page flag--PG_mlocked--to indicate that
   the page is locked for efficient testing in vmscan and,
   optionally, fault path.  This allows early culling of
   unevictable pages, preventing them from getting to
   page_referenced()/try_to_unmap().  Also allows separate
   accounting of mlock'd pages, as Nick's original patch
   did.

   Note:  Nick's original mlock patch used a PG_mlocked
   flag.  I had removed this in favor of the PG_unevictable
   flag + an mlock_count [new page struct member].  I
   restored the PG_mlocked flag to eliminate the new
   count field.

2) add the mlock/unevictable infrastructure to mm/mlock.c,
   with internal APIs in mm/internal.h.  This is a rework
   of Nick's original patch to these files, taking into
   account that mlocked pages are now kept on unevictable
   LRU list.

3) update vmscan.c:page_evictable() to check PageMlocked()
   and, if vma passed in, the vm_flags.  Note that the vma
   will only be passed in for new pages in the fault path;
   and then only if the "cull unevictable pages in fault
   path" patch is included.

4) add try_to_unlock() to rmap.c to walk a page's rmap and
   ClearPageMlocked() if no other vmas have it mlocked.
   Reuses as much of try_to_unmap() as possible.  This
   effectively replaces the use of one of the lru list links
   as an mlock count.  If this mechanism let's pages in mlocked
   vmas leak through w/o PG_mlocked set [I don't know that it
   does], we should catch them later in try_to_unmap().  One
   hopes this will be rare, as it will be relatively expensive.

89e004ea55 SHM_LOCKED pages are unevictable
Shmem segments locked into memory via shmctl(SHM_LOCKED) should not be
kept on the normal LRU, since scanning them is a waste of time and might
throw off kswapd's balancing algorithms.  Place them on the unevictable
LRU list instead.

Use the AS_UNEVICTABLE flag to mark address_space of SHM_LOCKed shared
memory regions as unevictable.  Then these pages will be culled off the
normal LRU lists during vmscan.

Add new wrapper function to clear the mapping's unevictable state when/if
shared memory segment is munlocked.

Add 'scan_mapping_unevictable_page()' to mm/vmscan.c to scan all pages in
the shmem segment's mapping [struct address_space] for evictability now
that they're no longer locked.  If so, move them to the appropriate zone
lru list.

Changes depend on [CONFIG_]UNEVICTABLE_LRU.

ba9ddf4939 Ramfs and Ram Disk pages are unevictable
Christoph Lameter pointed out that ram disk pages also clutter the LRU
lists.  When vmscan finds them dirty and tries to clean them, the ram disk
writeback function just redirties the page so that it goes back onto the
active list.  Round and round she goes...

With the ram disk driver [rd.c] replaced by the newer 'brd.c', this is no
longer the case, as ram disk pages are no longer maintained on the lru.
[This makes them unmigratable for defrag or memory hot remove, but that
can be addressed by a separate patch series.] However, the ramfs pages
behave like ram disk pages used to, so:

Define new address_space flag [shares address_space flags member with
mapping's gfp mask] to indicate that the address space contains all
unevictable pages.  This will provide for efficient testing of ramfs pages
in page_evictable().

Also provide wrapper functions to set/test the unevictable state to
minimize #ifdefs in ramfs driver and any other users of this facility.

Set the unevictable state on address_space structures for new ramfs
inodes.  Test the unevictable state in page_evictable() to cull
unevictable pages.

These changes depend on [CONFIG_]UNEVICTABLE_LRU.

bbfd28eee9 unevictable lru: add event counting with statistics
Fix to unevictable-lru-page-statistics.patch

Add unevictable lru infrastructure vm events to the statistics patch.
Rename the "NORECL_" and "noreclaim_" symbols and text strings to
"UNEVICTABLE_" and "unevictable_", respectively.

Currently, both the infrastructure and the mlocked pages event are
added by a single patch later in the series.  This makes it difficult
to add or rework the incremental patches.  The events actually "belong"
with the stats, so pull them up to here.

Also, restore the event counting to putback_lru_page().  This was removed
from previous patch in series where it was "misplaced".  The actual events
weren't defined that early.

894bc31041 Unevictable LRU Infrastructure
When the system contains lots of mlocked or otherwise unevictable pages,
the pageout code (kswapd) can spend lots of time scanning over these
pages.  Worse still, the presence of lots of unevictable pages can confuse
kswapd into thinking that more aggressive pageout modes are required,
resulting in all kinds of bad behaviour.

Infrastructure to manage pages excluded from reclaim--i.e., hidden from
vmscan.  Based on a patch by Larry Woodman of Red Hat.  Reworked to
maintain "unevictable" pages on a separate per-zone LRU list, to "hide"
them from vmscan.

Kosaki Motohiro added the support for the memory controller unevictable
lru list.

Pages on the unevictable list have both PG_unevictable and PG_lru set.
Thus, PG_unevictable is analogous to and mutually exclusive with
PG_active--it specifies which LRU list the page is on.

The unevictable infrastructure is enabled by a new mm Kconfig option
[CONFIG_]UNEVICTABLE_LRU.

A new function 'page_evictable(page, vma)' in vmscan.c tests whether or
not a page may be evictable.  Subsequent patches will add the various
!evictable tests.  We'll want to keep these tests light-weight for use in
shrink_active_list() and, possibly, the fault path.

To avoid races between tasks putting pages [back] onto an LRU list and
tasks that might be moving the page from non-evictable to evictable state,
the new function 'putback_lru_page()' -- inverse to 'isolate_lru_page()'
-- tests the "evictability" of a page after placing it on the LRU, before
dropping the reference.  If the page has become unevictable,
putback_lru_page() will redo the 'putback', thus moving the page to the
unevictable list.  This way, we avoid "stranding" evictable pages on the
unevictable list.

556adecba1 vmscan: second chance replacement for anonymous pages
We avoid evicting and scanning anonymous pages for the most part, but
under some workloads we can end up with most of memory filled with
anonymous pages.  At that point, we suddenly need to clear the referenced
bits on all of memory, which can take ages on very large memory systems.

We can reduce the maximum number of pages that need to be scanned by not
taking the referenced state into account when deactivating an anonymous
page.  After all, every anonymous page starts out referenced, so why
check?

If an anonymous page gets referenced again before it reaches the end of
the inactive list, we move it back to the active list.

To keep the maximum amount of necessary work reasonable, we scale the
active to inactive ratio with the size of memory, using the formula
active:inactive ratio = sqrt(memory in GB * 10).

Kswapd CPU use now seems to scale by the amount of pageout bandwidth,
instead of by the amount of memory present in the system.

4f98a2fee8 vmscan: split LRU lists into anon & file sets
Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file
systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap
("anon").  The latter includes tmpfs.

The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots
of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to
find the page cache pages that it should evict.

This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much
we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists.  The big
policy changes are in separate patches.

Define page_file_cache() function to answer the question:

Originally part of Rik van Riel's split-lru patch.  Extracted to make
available for other, independent reclaim patches.

Moved inline function to linux/mm_inline.h where it will be needed by
subsequent "split LRU" and "noreclaim" patches.

Unfortunately this needs to use a page flag, since the PG_swapbacked state
needs to be preserved all the way to the point where the page is last
removed from the LRU.  Trying to derive the status from other info in the
page resulted in wrong VM statistics in earlier split VM patchsets.

The total number of page flags in use on a 32 bit machine after this patch
is 19.

62695a84eb vmscan: move isolate_lru_page() to vmscan.c
On large memory systems, the VM can spend way too much time scanning
through pages that it cannot (or should not) evict from memory.  Not only
does it use up CPU time, but it also provokes lock contention and can
leave large systems under memory presure in a catatonic state.

This patch series improves VM scalability by:

1) putting filesystem backed, swap backed and unevictable pages
   onto their own LRUs, so the system only scans the pages that it
   can/should evict from memory

2) switching to two handed clock replacement for the anonymous LRUs,
   so the number of pages that need to be scanned when the system
   starts swapping is bound to a reasonable number

3) keeping unevictable pages off the LRU completely, so the
   VM does not waste CPU time scanning them. ramfs, ramdisk,
   SHM_LOCKED shared memory segments and mlock()ed VMA pages
   are keept on the unevictable list.

This patch:

isolate_lru_page logically belongs to be in vmscan.c than migrate.c.

It is tough, because we don't need that function without memory migration
so there is a valid argument to have it in migrate.c.  However a
subsequent patch needs to make use of it in the core mm, so we can happily
move it to vmscan.c.

Also, make the function a little more generic by not requiring that it
adds an isolated page to a given list.  Callers can do that.

	Note that we now have '__isolate_lru_page()', that does
	something quite different, visible outside of vmscan.c
	for use with memory controller.  Methinks we need to
	rationalize these names/purposes.	--lts

ffda12a17a sched: optimize group load balancer
I noticed that tg_shares_up() unconditionally takes rq-locks for all cpus
in the sched_domain. This hurts.

We need the rq-locks whenever we change the weight of the per-cpu group sched
entities. To allevate this a little, only change the weight when the new
weight is at least shares_thresh away from the old value.

This avoids the rq-lock for the top level entries, since those will never
be re-weighted, and fuzzes the lower level entries a little to gain performance
in semi-stable situations.
