* [PATCH] taskstats: kill ->taskstats_lock in favor of ->siglockOleg Nesterov2006-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | signal_struct is (mostly) protected by ->sighand->siglock, I think we don't need ->taskstats_lock to protect ->stats.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | taskstats_tgid_free() is called on copy_process's error path. This is wrong. IF (clone_flags & CLONE_THREAD) We should not clear ->signal->taskstats, current uses it, it probably has a valid accumulated info. ELSE taskstats_tgid_init() set ->signal->taskstats = NULL, there is nothing to free. Move the callsite to __exit_signal(). We don't need any locking, entire thread group is exiting, nobody should have a reference to soon to be released ->signal.

* [PATCH] __vmalloc with GFP_ATOMIC causes 'sleeping from invalid context'Giridhar Pemmasani2006-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | If __vmalloc is called to allocate memory with GFP_ATOMIC in atomic context, the chain of calls results in __get_vm_area_node allocating memory for vm_struct with GFP_KERNEL, causing the 'sleeping from invalid context' warning. This patch fixes it by passing the gfp flags along so __get_vm_area_node allocates memory for vm_struct with the same flags.

* [PATCH] vmscan: Fix temp_priority raceMartin Bligh2006-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The temp_priority field in zone is racy, as we can walk through a reclaim path, and just before we copy it into prev_priority, it can be overwritten (say with DEF_PRIORITY) by another reclaimer. The same bug is contained in both try_to_free_pages and balance_pgdat, but it is fixed slightly differently. In balance_pgdat, we keep a separate priority record per zone in a local array. In try_to_free_pages there is no need to do this, as the priority level is the same for all zones that we reclaim from. Impact of this bug is that temp_priority is copied into prev_priority, and setting this artificially high causes reclaimers to set distress artificially low. They then fail to reclaim mapped pages, when they are, in fact, under severe memory pressure (their priority may be as low as 0). This causes the OOM killer to fire incorrectly. From: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> __zone_reclaim() isn't modifying zone->prev_priority. But zone->prev_priority is used in the decision whether or not to bring mapped pages onto the inactive list. Hence there's a risk here that __zone_reclaim() will fail because zone->prev_priority ir large (ie: low urgency) and lots of mapped pages end up stuck on the active list. Fix that up by decreasing (ie making more urgent) zone->prev_priority as __zone_reclaim() scans the zone's pages. This bug perhaps explains why ZONE_RECLAIM_PRIORITY was created. It should be possible to remove that now, and to just start out at DEF_PRIORITY?

* [PATCH] drivers: wait for threaded probes between initcall levelsAndrew Morton2006-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The multithreaded-probing code has a problem: after one initcall level (eg, core_initcall) has been processed, we will then start processing the next level (postcore_initcall) while the kernel threads which are handling core_initcall are still executing. This breaks the guarantees which the layered initcalls previously gave us. IOW, we want to be multithreaded _within_ an initcall level, but not between different levels. Fix that up by causing the probing code to wait for all outstanding probes at one level to complete before we start processing the next level.

* [PATCH] Remove __must_check for device_for_each_child()Russell King2006-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Eliminate more __must_check madness. The return code from device_for_each_child() depends on the values which the helper function returns. If the helper function always returns zero, it's utterly pointless to check the return code from device_for_each_child(). The only code which knows if the return value should be checked is the caller itself, so forcing the return code to always be checked is silly. Hence, remove the __must_check annotation.

The linker is unfortunately not able to build a proper lookup table at link time, instead it creates one at runtime as soon as the bootmem allocator is usable (so you'll continue using the linear lookup for the first [hopefully] few calls).

We want i_mutex on the inode being written to before calling those so that we don't race i_size changes. The double locking behavior is done elsewhere in splice.c, and if we eventually want _nolock variants of generic_file_splice_write(), fs modules might have to replicate the nasty locking code. We introduce inode_double_lock() and inode_double_unlock() to consolidate the locking rules into one set of functions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch limits the amount of time you will defer sending a TSO segment to less than two clock ticks, or the time between two acks, whichever is longer. On slow links, deferring causes significant bursts. See attached plots, which show RTT through a 1 Mbps link with a 100 ms RTT and ~100 ms queue for (a) non-TSO, (b) currnet TSO, and (c) patched TSO. This burstiness causes significant jitter, tends to overflow queues early (bad for short queues), and makes delay-based congestion control more difficult. Deferring by a couple clock ticks I believe will have a relatively small impact on performance. Signed-off-by: John Heffner <jheffner@psc.edu> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* | [PATCH] NFS: Deal with failure of invalidate_inode_pages2()Trond Myklebust2006-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If invalidate_inode_pages2() fails, then it should in principle just be because the current process was signalled. In that case, we just want to ensure that the inode's page cache remains marked as invalid. Also add a helper to allow the O_DIRECT code to simply mark the page cache as invalid once it is finished writing, instead of calling invalidate_inode_pages2() itself.

* | [PATCH] OOM killer meets userspace headersAlexey Dobriyan2006-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Despite mm.h is not being exported header, it does contain one thing which is part of userspace ABI -- value disabling OOM killer for given process. So, a) create and export include/linux/oom.h b) move OOM_DISABLE define there. c) turn bounding values of /proc/$PID/oom_adj into defines and export them too. Note: mass __KERNEL__ removal will be done later.

* | [PATCH] separate bdi congestion functions from queue congestion functionsAndrew Morton2006-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Separate out the concept of "queue congestion" from "backing-dev congestion". Congestion is a backing-dev concept, not a queue concept. The blk_* congestion functions are retained, as wrappers around the core backing-dev congestion functions. This proper layering is needed so that NFS can cleanly use the congestion functions, and so that CONFIG_BLOCK=n actually links.
