blk_ioctl_discard duplicates large amounts of code from blkdev_issue_discard,
the only difference between the two is that blkdev_issue_discard needs to
send a barrier discard request and blk_ioctl_discard a non-barrier one,
and blk_ioctl_discard needs to wait on the request. To facilitates this
add a flags argument to blkdev_issue_discard to control both aspects of the
behaviour. This will be very useful later on for using the waiting
funcitonality for other callers.
Based on an earlier patch from Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx>.

When SLAB_POISON is used and slab_pad_check() finds an overwrite of the
slab padding, we call restore_bytes() on the whole slab, not only
on the padding.

When CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is enabled, sysfs_slab_add should unlink and put the
kobject if sysfs_create_group failed. Otherwise, sysfs_slab_add returns error
then free kmem_cache s, thus memory of s->kobj is leaked.

If the minalign is 64 bytes, then the 96 byte cache should not be created
because it would conflict with the 128 byte cache.
If the minalign is 256 bytes, patching the size_index table should not
result in a buffer overrun.
The calculation "(i - 1) / 8" used to access size_index[] is moved to
a separate function as suggested by Christoph Lameter.

This patch moves the masking of debugging flags which increase a cache's
min order due to metadata when `slub_debug=O' is used from
kmem_cache_flags() to kmem_cache_open().
Instead of defining the maximum metadata size increase in a preprocessor
macro, this approach uses the cache's ->size and ->objsize members to
determine if the min order increased due to debugging options. If so,
the flags specified in the more appropriately named DEBUG_METADATA_FLAGS
are masked off.
This approach was suggested by Christoph Lameter
<cl@linux-foundation.org>.

When debugging is enabled, slub requires that additional metadata be
stored in slabs for certain options: SLAB_RED_ZONE, SLAB_POISON, and
SLAB_STORE_USER.
Consequently, it may require that the minimum possible slab order needed
to allocate a single object be greater when using these options. The
most notable example is for objects that are PAGE_SIZE bytes in size.
Higher minimum slab orders may cause page allocation failures when oom or
under heavy fragmentation.
This patch adds a new slub_debug option, which disables debugging by
default for caches that would have resulted in higher minimum orders:
slub_debug=O
When this option is used on systems with 4K pages, kmalloc-4096, for
example, will not have debugging enabled by default even if
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON is defined because it would have resulted in a
order-1 minimum slab order.

IS_SYNC inode
Introduce new function for generic inode syncing (vfs_fsync_range) and use
it from fsync() path. Introduce also new helper for syncing after a sync
write (generic_write_sync) using the generic function.
Use these new helpers for syncing from generic VFS functions. This makes
O_SYNC writes to block devices acquire i_mutex for syncing. If we really
care about this, we can make block_fsync() drop the i_mutex and reacquire
it before it returns.

generic_file_aio_write_nolock() is now used only by block devices and raw
character device. Filesystems should use __generic_file_aio_write() in case
generic_file_aio_write() doesn't suit them. So rename the function to
blkdev_aio_write() and move it to fs/blockdev.c.

generic_file_buffered_write()
generic_file_direct_write() and generic_file_buffered_write() called
generic_osync_inode() if it was called on O_SYNC file or IS_SYNC inode. But
this is superfluous since generic_file_aio_write() does the syncing as well.
Also XFS and OCFS2 which call these functions directly handle syncing
themselves. So let's have a single place where syncing happens:
generic_file_aio_write().
We slightly change the behavior by syncing only the range of file to which the
write happened for buffered writes but that should be all that is required.

This gets rid of pdflush for bdi writeout and kupdated style cleaning.
pdflush writeout suffers from lack of locality and also requires more
threads to handle the same workload, since it has to work in a
non-blocking fashion against each queue. This also introduces lumpy
behaviour and potential request starvation, since pdflush can be starved
for queue access if others are accessing it. A sample ffsb workload that
does random writes to files is about 8% faster here on a simple SATA drive
during the benchmark phase. File layout also seems a LOT more smooth in
vmstat:

A 10 disk test with btrfs performs 26% faster with per-bdi flushing. A
SSD based writeback test on XFS performs over 20% better as well, with
the throughput being very stable around 1GB/sec, where pdflush only
manages 750MB/sec and fluctuates wildly while doing so. Random buffered
writes to many files behave a lot better as well, as does random mmap'ed
writes.
A separate thread is added to sync the super blocks. In the long term,
adding sync_supers_bdi() functionality could get rid of this thread again.

This is a first step at introducing per-bdi flusher threads. We should
have no change in behaviour, although sb_has_dirty_inodes() is now
ridiculously expensive, as there's no easy way to answer that question.
Not a huge problem, since it'll be deleted in subsequent patches.

When painting grey or black we do the same thing, bring
this together into a helper and identify coloring grey or
black explicitly with defines. This makes this a little

In an ideal world your kmemleak output will be small, when its
not (usually during initial bootup) you can use the clear command
to ingore previously reported and unreferenced kmemleak objects. We
do this by painting all currently reported unreferenced objects grey.
We paint them grey instead of black to allow future scans on the same
objects as such objects could still potentially reference newly
allocated objects in the future.
To test a critical section on demand with a clean
/sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak you can do:
echo clear > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
test your kernel or modules
echo scan > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
Then as usual to get your report with:
cat /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak

The kmemleak_disable() function could be called from various contexts
including IRQ. It creates a clean-up thread but the kthread_create()
function has restrictions on which contexts it can be called from,
mainly because of the kthread_create_lock. The patch changes the
kmemleak clean-up thread to a workqueue.

uninitialized memory regions when kmemcheck is enabled.

The number of lines to be printed is limited to HEX_MAX_LINES
to prevent seq file spamming. The actual number of printed
bytes is less than or equal to (HEX_MAX_LINES * HEX_ROW_SIZE).

This patch sets the min_count for alloc_bootmem objects to 0 so that
they are never reported as leaks. This is because many of these blocks
are only referred via the physical address which is not looked up by
kmemleak.

Before slab is initialised, kmemleak save the allocations in an early
log buffer. They are later recorded as normal memory allocations. This
patch adds the stack trace saving to the early log buffer, otherwise the
information shown for such objects only refers to the kmemleak_init()
function.

disabled
On low-memory systems, anti-fragmentation gets disabled as fragmentation
cannot be avoided on a sufficiently large boundary to be worthwhile. Once
disabled, there is a period of time when all the pageblocks are marked
MOVABLE and the expectation is that they get marked UNMOVABLE at each call
to __rmqueue_fallback().
However, when MAX_ORDER is large the pageblocks do not change ownership
because the normal criteria are not met. This has the effect of
prematurely breaking up too many large contiguous blocks. This is most
serious on NOMMU systems which depend on high-order allocations to boot.
This patch causes pageblocks to change ownership on every fallback when
anti-fragmentation is disabled. This prevents the large blocks being
prematurely broken up.
This is a fix to commit 49255c619fbd482d704289b5eb2795f8e3b7ff2e [page
allocator: move check for disabled anti-fragmentation out of fastpath] and
the problem affects 2.6.31-rc8.
