| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Writing the detected disc type in the kernel log is not useful during normal use of the driver, so remove the printk statements.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, acpi video options can only be set on kernel command line. That's little inflexible; I'd like userland s2ram application that just works, and modifying kernel command line according to whitelist is not fun. It is better to just allow s2ram application to set video options just before suspend (according to the whitelist). This implements sysctl to allow setting suspend video options without reboot.

* | | [PATCH] Terminate process that fails on a constrained allocationChristoph Lameter2006-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some allocations are restricted to a limited set of nodes (due to memory policies or cpuset constraints). If the page allocator is not able to find enough memory then that does not mean that overall system memory is low. In particular going postal and more or less randomly shooting at processes is not likely going to help the situation but may just lead to suicide (the whole system coming down). It is better to signal to the process that no memory exists given the constraints that the process (or the configuration of the process) has placed on the allocation behavior. The process may be killed but then the sysadmin or developer can investigate the situation. The solution is similar to what we do when running out of hugepages. This patch adds a check before we kill processes. At that point performance considerations do not matter much so we just scan the zonelist and reconstruct a list of nodes. If the list of nodes does not contain all online nodes then this is a constrained allocation and we should kill the current process.

* | | [PATCH] OOM kill: children accountingKurt Garloff2006-02-20
|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the badness() calculation, there's currently this piece of code: /* * Processes which fork a lot of child processes are likely * a good choice. We add the vmsize of the children if they * have an own mm. This prevents forking servers to flood the * machine with an endless amount of children */ list_for_each(tsk, &p->children) { struct task_struct *chld; chld = list_entry(tsk, struct task_struct, sibling); if (chld->mm = p->mm && chld->mm) points += chld->mm->total_vm; } The intention is clear: If some server (apache) keeps spawning new children and we run OOM, we want to kill the father rather than picking a child. This -- to some degree -- also helps a bit with getting fork bombs under control, though I'd consider this a desirable side-effect rather than a feature. There's one problem with this: No matter how many or few children there are, if just one of them misbehaves, and all others (including the father) do everything right, we still always kill the whole family. This hits in real life; whether it's javascript in konqueror resulting in kdeinit (and thus the whole KDE session) being hit or just a classical server that spawns children. Sidenote: The killer does kill all direct children as well, not only the selected father, see oom_kill_process(). The idea in attached patch is that we do want to account the memory consumption of the (direct) children to the father -- however not fully. This maintains the property that fathers with too many children will still very likely be picked, whereas a single misbehaving child has the chance to be picked by the OOM killer. In the patch I account only half (rounded up) of the children's vm_size to the parent. This means that if one child eats more mem than the rest of the family, it will be picked, otherwise it's still the father and thus the whole family that gets selected. This is heuristics -- we could debate whether accounting for a fourth would be better than for half of it. Or -- if people would consider it worth the trouble -- make it a sysctl. For now I sticked to accounting for half, which should IMHO be a significant improvement. The patch does one more thing: As users tend to be irritated by the choice of killed processes (mainly because the children are killed first, despite some of them having a very low OOM score), I added some more output: The selected (father) process will be reported first and it's oom_score printed to syslog. Description: Only account for half of children's vm size in oom score calculation This should still give the parent enough point in case of fork bombs. If any child however has more than 50% of the vm size of all children together, it'll get a higher score and be elected. This patch also makes the kernel display the oom_score.

* | [PATCH] ACPI: fix vendor resource length computationBjorn Helgaas2006-02-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | acpi_rs_get_list_length() needs to account for all the vendor-defined data bytes. Failing to include these causes buffers to be sized too small, which causes slab corruption when we later convert AML to resources and run off the end of the buffer. This causes slab corruption on machines that use ACPI vendor-defined resources. All HP ia64 machines do, and I'm told that some NEC machines may as well.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The last changes that introduced the additional_cpus command line parameter also introduced a regression regarding smp initialization speed. In smp_setup_cpu_possible_map() cpu_present_map is set to the same value as cpu_possible_map. Especially that means that bits in the present map will be set for cpus that are not present. This will cause a slow down in the initial cpu_up() loop in smp_init() since trying to take cpus online that aren't present takes a while. Fix this by setting only bits for present cpus in cpu_present_map and set cpu_present_map to cpu_possible_map in smp_cpus_done().

Also I doubt that making these measurements make much sense on a completely virtualized architecture where you cannot tell how much cpu time you will get anyway. So introduce the CONFIG_DEFAULT_MIGRATION_COST method for an architecture to set the scheduler migration costs. This turns off automatic detection of migration costs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix a deadlock possible in the ext2 file system implementation. This deadlock occurs when a file is removed from an ext2 file system which was mounted with the "sync" mount option. The problem is that ext2_xattr_delete_inode() was invoking the routine, sync_dirty_buffer(), using a buffer head which was previously locked via lock_buffer(). The first thing that sync_dirty_buffer() does is to lock the buffer head that it was passed. It does this via lock_buffer(). Oops. The solution is to unlock the buffer head in ext2_xattr_delete_inode() before invoking sync_dirty_buffer(). This makes the code in ext2_xattr_delete_inode() obey the same locking rules as all other callers of sync_dirty_buffer() in the ext2 file system implementation.

| * | | [PATCH] sky2: speed setting fixStephen Hemminger2006-02-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Users report problems w/ auto-negotiation disabled and the link set to 100/Half or 10/Half. Problems range from poor performance to no link at all. The current sky2 code does not set things properly on link up if autonegotiation is disabled. Plus it does not contemplate a 10Mbit setting at all. This patch corrects that. Signed-off-by: John W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a clone of John Linville's fixed for speed setting on sky2 driver. The skge driver has the same code (and bug). It would not allow manually forcing 100 and 10 mbit. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The sk98lin driver was changed a while ago to remove support for the D-Link 530T card because that hardware has no working VPD data.
