| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cpuset/memory policy restrictions Add a new gfp flag __GFP_THISNODE to avoid fallback to other nodes. This flag is essential if a kernel component requires memory to be located on a certain node. It will be needed for alloc_pages_node() to force allocation on the indicated node and for alloc_pages() to force allocation on the current node.

* [PATCH] mm: non syncing lock_page()Nick Piggin2006-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | lock_page needs the caller to have a reference on the page->mapping inode due to sync_page, ergo set_page_dirty_lock is obviously buggy according to its comments. Solve it by introducing a new lock_page_nosync which does not do a sync_page. akpm: unpleasant solution to an unpleasant problem. If it goes wrong it could cause great slowdowns while the lock_page() caller waits for kblockd to perform the unplug. And if a filesystem has special sync_page() requirements (none presently do), permanent hangs are possible. otoh, set_page_dirty_lock() is usually (always?) called against userspace pages. They are always up-to-date, so there shouldn't be any pending read I/O against these pages.

* [PATCH] out of memory notifierMartin Schwidefsky2006-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a notifer chain to the out of memory killer. If one of the registered callbacks could release some memory, do not kill the process but return and retry the allocation that forced the oom killer to run. The purpose of the notifier is to add a safety net in the presence of memory ballooners. If the resource manager inflated the balloon to a size where memory allocations can not be satisfied anymore, it is better to deflate the balloon a bit instead of killing processes. The implementation for the s390 ballooner is included.

* [PATCH] linearly index zone->node_zonelists[]Christoph Lameter2006-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I wonder why we need this bitmask indexing into zone->node_zonelists[]? We always start with the highest zone and then include all lower zones if we build zonelists. Are there really cases where we need allocation from ZONE_DMA or ZONE_HIGHMEM but not ZONE_NORMAL? It seems that the current implementation of highest_zone() makes that already impossible. If we go linear on the index then gfp_zone() == highest_zone() and a lot of definitions fall by the wayside. We can now revert back to the use of gfp_zone() in mempolicy.c ;-) Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] Apply type enum zone_typeChristoph Lameter2006-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After we have done this we can now do some typing cleanup. The memory policy layer keeps a policy_zone that specifies the zone that gets memory policies applied. This variable can now be of type enum zone_type. The check_highest_zone function and the build_zonelists funnctionm must then also take a enum zone_type parameter. Plus there are a number of loops over zones that also should use zone_type. We run into some troubles at some points with functions that need a zone_type variable to become -1. Fix that up.

* [PATCH] mempolicies: fix policy_zone checkChristoph Lameter2006-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a check in zonelist_policy that compares pieces of the bitmap obtained from a gfp mask via GFP_ZONETYPES with a zone number in function zonelist_policy(). The bitmap is an ORed mask of __GFP_DMA, __GFP_DMA32 and __GFP_HIGHMEM. The policy_zone is a zone number with the possible values of ZONE_DMA, ZONE_DMA32, ZONE_HIGHMEM and ZONE_NORMAL. These are two different domains of values. For some reason seemed to work before the zone reduction patchset (It definitely works on SGI boxes since we just have one zone and the check cannot fail). With the zone reduction patchset this check definitely fails on systems with two zones if the system actually has memory in both zones. This is because ZONE_NORMAL is selected using no __GFP flag at all and thus gfp_zone(gfpmask) == 0. ZONE_DMA is selected when __GFP_DMA is set. __GFP_DMA is 0x01. So gfp_zone(gfpmask) == 1. policy_zone is set to ZONE_NORMAL (==1) if ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_DMA are populated. For ZONE_NORMAL gfp_zone(<no _GFP_DMA>) yields 0 which is < policy_zone(ZONE_NORMAL) and so policy is not applied to regular memory allocations! Instead gfp_zone(__GFP_DMA) == 1 which results in policy being applied to DMA allocations! What we realy want in that place is to establish the highest allowable zone for a given gfp_mask. If the highest zone is higher or equal to the policy_zone then memory policies need to be applied. We have such a highest_zone() function in page_alloc.c. So move the highest_zone() function from mm/page_alloc.c into include/linux/gfp.h. On the way we simplify the function and use the new zone_type that was also introduced with the zone reduction patchset plus we also specify the right type for the gfp flags parameter.

* [PATCH] mm: tracking shared dirty pagesPeter Zijlstra2006-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tracking of dirty pages in shared writeable mmap()s. The idea is simple: write protect clean shared writeable pages, catch the write-fault, make writeable and set dirty. On page write-back clean all the PTE dirty bits and write protect them once again. The implementation is a tad harder, mainly because the default backing_dev_info capabilities were too loosely maintained. Hence it is not enough to test the backing_dev_info for cap_account_dirty. The current heuristic is as follows, a VMA is eligible when: - its shared writeable (vm_flags & (VM_WRITE|VM_SHARED)) == (VM_WRITE|VM_SHARED) - it is not a 'special' mapping (vm_flags & (VM_PFNMAP|VM_INSERTPAGE)) == 0 - the backing_dev_info is cap_account_dirty mapping_cap_account_dirty(vma->vm_file->f_mapping) - f_op->mmap() didn't change the default page protection Page from remap_pfn_range() are explicitly excluded because their COW semantics are already horrid enough (see vm_normal_page() in do_wp_page()) and because they don't have a backing store anyway. mprotect() is taught about the new behaviour as well. However it overrides the last condition. Cleaning the pages on write-back is done with page_mkclean() a new rmap call. It can be called on any page, but is currently only implemented for mapped pages, if the page is found the be of a VMA that accounts dirty pages it will also wrprotect the PTE. Finally, in fs/buffers.c:try_to_free_buffers(); remove clear_page_dirty() from under ->private_lock. This seems to be safe, since ->private_lock is used to serialize access to the buffers, not the page itself. This is needed because clear_page_dirty() will call into page_mkclean() and would thereby violate locking order.

* [PATCH] update to the kernel kmap/kunmap APIJames Bottomley2006-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Give non-highmem architectures access to the kmap API for the purposes of overriding (this is what the attached patch does). The proposal is that we should now require all architectures with coherence issues to manage data coherence via the kmap/kunmap API. Thus driver writers never have to write code like kmap(page) modify data in page flush_kernel_dcache_page(page) kunmap(page) instead, kmap/kunmap will manage the coherence and driver (and filesystem) writers don't need to worry about how to flush between kmap and kunmap. For most architectures, the page only needs to be flushed if it was actually written to *and* there are user mappings of it, so the best implementation looks to be: clear the page dirty pte bit in the kernel page tables on kmap and on kunmap, check page->mappings for user maps, and then the dirty bit, and only flush if it both has user mappings and is dirty.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | misreports it) Our ATA probe code checks that a device is not reporting a diagnostic failure during start up. Unfortunately at least one device seems to like doing this - the Gigabyte iRAM. This is only done for the master right now (which is fine for the iRAM as it is SATA), as with PATA some combinations of ATAPI device seem to fool the check into seeing a drive that isn't there if it is applied to the slave.

| | * | | | [PATCH] libata: fix non-uniform ports handlingTejun Heo2006-09-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Non-uniform ports handling got broken while updating libata to handle those in the same host. Only separate irq for the non-uniform secondary port was implemented while all other fields (host flags, transfer mode...) of the secondary port simply shared those of the first. For ata_piix combined mode, which ATM is the only user of non-uniform ports, this causes the secondary port assume the wrong type. This can cause PATA port to use SATA ops, which results in bogus check on PCS and detection failure. This patch adds ata_probe_ent->pinfo2 which points to optional port_info for the secondary port. For the time being, this seems to be the simplest solution. This workaround will be removed together with ata_probe_ent itself after init model is updated to allow more flexibility.
