* printk: remove bounds checking for log_prefixWilliam Douglas2011-10-311-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently log_prefix is testing that the first character of the log level and facility is less than '0' and greater than '9' (which is always false). Since the code being updated works because strtoul bombs out (endp isn't updated) and 0 is returned anyway just remove the check and don't change the behavior of the function.

* printk: fix bounds checking for log_prefixWilliam Douglas2011-10-311-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently log_prefix is testing that the first character of the log level and facility is less than '0' and greater than '9' (which is always false). It should be testing to see if the character less than '0' or greater than '9' instead. This patch makes that change.

* kernel/sysctl.c: add cap_last_cap to /proc/sys/kernelDan Ballard2011-10-312-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Userspace needs to know the highest valid capability of the running kernel, which right now cannot reliably be retrieved from the header files only. The fact that this value cannot be determined properly right now creates various problems for libraries compiled on newer header files which are run on older kernels. They assume capabilities are available which actually aren't. libcap-ng is one example. And we ran into the same problem with systemd too. Now the capability is exported in /proc/sys/kernel/cap_last_cap.

* lis3lv02d: make regulator API usage unconditionalMark Brown2011-10-312-23/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The regulator API contains a range of features for stubbing itself out when not in use and for transparently restricting the actual effect of regulator API calls where they can't be supported on a particular system so that drivers don't need to individually implement this. Simplify the driver slightly by making use of this idiom. The only in tree user is ecovec24 which does not use the regulator API.

* fs/pipe.c: add ->statfs callback for pipefsPavel Emelyanov2011-10-311-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently a statfs on a pipe's /proc/<pid>/fd/ link returns -ENOSYS. Wire pipfs up so that the statfs succeeds. This is required by checkpoint-restart in the userspace to make it possible to distinguish pipes from fifos. When we dump information about task's open files we use the /proc/pid/fd directoy's symlinks and the fact that opening any of them gives us exactly the same dentry->inode pair as the original process has. Now if a task we're dumping has opened pipe and fifo we need to detect this and act accordingly. Knowing that an fd with type S_ISFIFO resides on a pipefs is the most precise way.

* mm: munlock use mapcount to avoid terrible overheadHugh Dickins2011-10-311-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A process spent 30 minutes exiting, just munlocking the pages of a large anonymous area that had been alternately mprotected into page-sized vmas: for every single page there's an anon_vma walk through all the other little vmas to find the right one. A general fix to that would be a lot more complicated (use prio_tree on anon_vma?), but there's one very simple thing we can do to speed up the common case: if a page to be munlocked is mapped only once, then it is our vma that it is mapped into, and there's no need whatever to walk through all the others. Okay, there is a very remote race in munlock_vma_pages_range(), if between its follow_page() and lock_page(), another process were to munlock the same page, then page reclaim remove it from our vma, then another process mlock it again. We would find it with page_mapcount 1, yet it's still mlocked in another process. But never mind, that's much less likely than the down_read_trylock() failure which munlocking already tolerates (in try_to_unmap_one()): in due course page reclaim will discover and move the page to unevictable instead.

* mm/huge_memory: fix typo when updating mmu cacheHillf Danton2011-10-311-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are three cases of update_mmu_cache() in the file, and the case in function collapse_huge_page() has a typo, namely the last parameter used, which is corrected based on the other two cases. Due to the define of update_mmu_cache by X86, the only arch that implements THP currently, the change here has no really crystal point, but one or two minutes of efforts could be saved for those archs that are likely to support THP in future.

* vmscan: limit direct reclaim for higher order allocationsRik van Riel2011-10-311-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When suffering from memory fragmentation due to unfreeable pages, THP page faults will repeatedly try to compact memory. Due to the unfreeable pages, compaction fails. Needless to say, at that point page reclaim also fails to create free contiguous 2MB areas. However, that doesn't stop the current code from trying, over and over again, and freeing a minimum of 4MB (2UL << sc->order pages) at every single invocation. This resulted in my 12GB system having 2-3GB free memory, a corresponding amount of used swap and very sluggish response times. This can be avoided by having the direct reclaim code not reclaim from zones that already have plenty of free memory available for compaction. If compaction still fails due to unmovable memory, doing additional reclaim will only hurt the system, not help.

* vmscan: add barrier to prevent evictable page in unevictable listMinchan Kim2011-10-312-5/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a race between putback_lru_page() and shmem_lock with lock=0 happens, progrom execution order is as follows, but clear_bit in processor #1 could be reordered right before spin_unlock of processor #1. Then, the page would be stranded on the unevictable list. spin_lock SetPageLRU spin_unlock clear_bit(AS_UNEVICTABLE) spin_lock if PageLRU() if !test_bit(AS_UNEVICTABLE) move evictable list smp_mb if !test_bit(AS_UNEVICTABLE) move evictable list spin_unlock But, pagevec_lookup() in scan_mapping_unevictable_pages() has rcu_read_[un]lock() so it could protect reordering before reaching test_bit(AS_UNEVICTABLE) on processor #1 so this problem never happens. But it's a unexpected side effect and we should solve this problem properly. This patch adds a barrier after mapping_clear_unevictable. I didn't meet this problem but just found during review.

* mm: disable user interface to manually rescue unevictable pagesJohannes Weiner2011-10-311-76/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At one point, anonymous pages were supposed to go on the unevictable list when no swap space was configured, and the idea was to manually rescue those pages after adding swap and making them evictable again. But nowadays, swap-backed pages on the anon LRU list are not scanned without available swap space anyway, so there is no point in moving them to a separate list anymore. The manual rescue could also be used in case pages were stranded on the unevictable list due to race conditions. But the code has been around for a while now and newly discovered bugs should be properly reported and dealt with instead of relying on such a manual fixup. In addition to the lack of a usecase, the sysfs interface to rescue pages from a specific NUMA node has been broken since its introduction, so it's unlikely that anybody ever relied on that. This patch removes the functionality behind the sysctl and the node-interface and emits a one-time warning when somebody tries to access either of them.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | write_scan_unevictable_node() checks the value req returned by strict_strtoul() and returns 1 if req is 0. However, when strict_strtoul() returns 0, it means successful conversion of buf to unsigned long. Due to this, the function was not proceeding to scan the zones for unevictable pages even though we write a valid value to the scan_unevictable_pages sys file. Change this check slightly to check for invalid value in buf as well as 0 value stored in res after successful conversion via strict_strtoul. In both cases, we do not perform the scanning of this node's zones.

* kswapd: assign new_order and new_classzone_idx after wakeup in sleepingAlex,Shi2011-10-311-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There 2 places to read pgdat in kswapd. One is return from a successful balance, another is waked up from kswapd sleeping. The new_order and new_classzone_idx represent the balance input order and classzone_idx. But current new_order and new_classzone_idx are not assigned after kswapd_try_to_sleep(), that will cause a bug in the following scenario. 1: after a successful balance, kswapd goes to sleep, and new_order = 0; new_classzone_idx = __MAX_NR_ZONES - 1; 2: kswapd waked up with order = 3 and classzone_idx = ZONE_NORMAL 3: in the balance_pgdat() running, a new balance wakeup happened with order = 5, and classzone_idx = ZONE_NORMAL 4: the first wakeup(order = 3) finished successufly, return order = 3 but, the new_order is still 0, so, this balancing will be treated as a failed balance. And then the second tighter balancing will be missed. So, to avoid the above problem, the new_order and new_classzone_idx need to be assigned for later successful comparison.
