* relay: fix bogus cast in subbuf_splice_actor()Tom Zanussi2007-07-13
| | | | | | | | | The current code that sets the read position in subbuf_splice_actor may give erroneous results if the buffer size isn't a power of 2. This patch fixes the problem. Signed-off-by: Tom Zanussi <zanussi@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* pipe: change the ->pin() operation to ->confirm()Jens Axboe2007-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | The name 'pin' was badly chosen, it doesn't pin a pipe buffer in the most commonly used sense in the kernel. So change the name to 'confirm', after debating this issue with Hugh Dickins a bit. A good return from ->confirm() means that the buffer is really there, and that the contents are good.

* relay: use splice_to_pipe() instead of open-coding the pipe loopJens Axboe2007-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | It cleans up the relay splice implementation a lot, and gets rid of a lot of internal pipe knowledge that should not be in there. Plus fixes for padding and partial first page (and lots more) from Tom Zanussi. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* splice: divorce the splice structure/function definitions from the pipe headerJens Axboe2007-07-10
| | | | | | | | | We need to move even more stuff into the header so that folks can use the splice_to_pipe() implementation instead of open-coding a lot of pipe knowledge (see relay implementation), so move to our own header file finally. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

* | Add suspend-related notifications for CPU hotplugRafael J. Wysocki2007-05-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress. This patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during suspend and resume transitions. It also changes all of the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration (for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal" ones).

* [PATCH] Relay: add CPU hotplug supportMathieu Desnoyers2007-02-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mathieu originally needed to add this for tracing Xen, but it's something that's needed for any application that can be tracing while cpus are added. unplug isn't supported by this patch. The thought was that at minumum a new buffer needs to be added when a cpu comes up, but it wasn't worth the effort to remove buffers on cpu down since they'd be freed soon anyway when the channel was closed.

* [PATCH] inode_diet: Replace inode.u.generic_ip with inode.i_privateTheodore Ts'o2006-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes on a UP x86. (It would be more on an x86_64 system). This is a 10% reduction in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode (i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat in the VFS inode structure). This patch: The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union, which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been using the void pointer. Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer. This is just a cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where the union will actually be used.
