This patch provides a function to move account information of a page
between mem_cgroups and rewrite force_empty to make use of this.
This moving of page_cgroup is done under
- lru_lock of source/destination mem_cgroup is held.
- lock_page_cgroup() is held.
Then, a routine which touches pc->mem_cgroup without lock_page_cgroup()
should confirm pc->mem_cgroup is still valid or not. Typical code can be
following.
(while page is not under lock_page())
mem = pc->mem_cgroup;
mz = page_cgroup_zoneinfo(pc)
spin_lock_irqsave(&mz->lru_lock);
if (pc->mem_cgroup == mem)
...../* some list handling */
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mz->lru_lock);
Of course, better way is
lock_page_cgroup(pc);
....
unlock_page_cgroup(pc);
But you should confirm the nest of lock and avoid deadlock.
If you treats page_cgroup from mem_cgroup's LRU under mz->lru_lock,
you don't have to worry about what pc->mem_cgroup points to.
moved pages are added to head of lru, not to tail.
Expected users of this routine is:
- force_empty (rmdir)
- moving tasks between cgroup (for moving account information.)
- hierarchy (maybe useful.)
force_empty(rmdir) uses this move_account and move pages to its parent.
This "move" will not cause OOM (I added "oom" parameter to try_charge().)
If the parent is busy (not enough memory), force_empty calls try_to_free_page()
and reduce usage.
Purpose of this behavior is
- Fix "forget all" behavior of force_empty and avoid leak of accounting.
- By "moving first, free if necessary", keep pages on memory as much as
possible.
Adding a switch to change behavior of force_empty to
- free first, move if necessary
- free all, if there is mlocked/busy pages, return -EBUSY.
is under consideration. (I'll add if someone requtests.)
This patch also removes memory.force_empty file, a brutal debug-only interface.
memcg: do not recalculate section unnecessarily in init_section_page_cgroup
In init_section_page_cgroup() the section a given pfn belongs to is
calculated at the top of the function and, despite the fact that the
pfn/section correspondence does not change, it is recalculated further
down the same function. By computing this just once and reusing that
value we save some bytes in the object file and do not waste CPU cycles.

Now, management of "charge" under page migration is done under following
manner. (Assume migrate page contents from oldpage to newpage)
before
- "newpage" is charged before migration.
at success.
- "oldpage" is uncharged at somewhere(unmap, radix-tree-replace)
at failure
- "newpage" is uncharged.
- "oldpage" is charged if necessary (*1)
But (*1) is not reliable....because of GFP_ATOMIC.
This patch tries to change behavior as following by charge/commit/cancel ops.
before
- charge PAGE_SIZE (no target page)
success
- commit charge against "newpage".
failure
- commit charge against "oldpage".
(PCG_USED bit works effectively to avoid double-counting)
- if "oldpage" is obsolete, cancel charge of PAGE_SIZE.
Now, most of callers of mem_cgroup_charge_xxx functions uses GFP_KERNEL.
I think that this is from the fact that page_cgroup *was* dynamically
allocated.
But now, we allocate all page_cgroup at boot. And
mem_cgroup_try_to_free_pages() reclaim memory from GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE +
specified GFP_RECLAIM_MASK.
* This is because we just want to reduce memory usage.
"Where we should reclaim from ?" is not a problem in memcg.
This patch modifies gfp masks to be GFP_HIGUSER_MOVABLE if possible.
Note: This patch is not for fixing behavior but for showing sane information
in source code.
memcg: introduce charge-commit-cancel style of functions
There is a small race in do_swap_page(). When the page swapped-in is
charged, the mapcount can be greater than 0. But, at the same time some
process (shares it ) call unmap and make mapcount 1->0 and the page is
uncharged.
For fixing this, I added a new interface.
- charge
account to res_counter by PAGE_SIZE and try to free pages if necessary.
- commit
register page_cgroup and add to LRU if necessary.
- cancel
uncharge PAGE_SIZE because of do_swap_page failure.
CPUA
(1) charge (always)
(2) set page's rmap (mapcount > 0)
(3) commit charge was necessary or not after set_pte().
This protocol uses PCG_USED bit on page_cgroup for avoiding over accounting.
Usual mem_cgroup_charge_common() does charge -> commit at a time.
And this patch also adds following function to clarify all charges.
- mem_cgroup_newpage_charge() ....replacement for mem_cgroup_charge()
called against newly allocated anon pages.
- mem_cgroup_charge_migrate_fixup()
called only from remove_migration_ptes().
we'll have to rewrite this later.(this patch just keeps old behavior)
This function will be removed by additional patch to make migration
clearer.
Good for clarifying "what we do"
Then, we have 4 following charge points.
- newpage
- swap-in
- add-to-cache.
- migration.

devices cgroup: allow mkfifo
The devcgroup_inode_permission() hook in the devices whitelist cgroup has

jbd: improve fsync batching
There is a flaw with the way jbd handles fsync batching. If we fsync() a
file and we were not the last person to run fsync() on this fs then we
automatically sleep for 1 jiffie in order to wait for new writers to join
into the transaction before forcing the commit. The problem with this is
that with really fast storage (ie a Clariion) the time it takes to commit
a transaction to disk is way faster than 1 jiffie in most cases, so
sleeping means waiting longer with nothing to do than if we just committed
the transaction and kept going. Ric Wheeler noticed this when using
fs_mark with more than 1 thread, the throughput would plummet as he added
more threads.
This patch attempts to fix this problem by recording the average time in
nanoseconds that it takes to commit a transaction to disk, and what time
we started the transaction. If we run an fsync() and we have been running
for less time than it takes to commit the transaction to disk, we sleep
for the delta amount of time and then commit to disk. We acheive
sub-jiffie sleeping using schedule_hrtimeout. This means that the wait
time is auto-tuned to the speed of the underlying disk, instead of having
this static timeout. I weighted the average according to somebody's
comments (Andreas Dilger I think) in order to help normalize random
outliers where we take way longer or way less time to commit than the
average. I also have a min() check in there to make sure we don't sleep
longer than a jiffie in case our storage is super slow, this was requested
by Andrew.
I unfortunately do not have access to a Clariion, so I had to use a
ramdisk to represent a super fast array. I tested with a SATA drive with
barrier=1 to make sure there was no regression with local disks, I tested
with a 4 way multipathed Apple Xserve RAID array and of course the
ramdisk. I ran the following command

V4L/DVB (10191a): Update MAINTAINERS entries on media drivers
This patch updates the MAINTAINERS entries for the media drivers.
We are doing a few changes during 2009 to improve patch handling for
drivers/media stuff.
Currently, v4l-dvb-maintainer list at linuxtv.org were used to to be v4l/dvb
driver maintainers ML, in order to keep track of patch merge requests and to
receive bug fixes. This list allows posting for everybody, but, in order to
avoid spam, the user subscribe/unsubscribe at the ML is moderated. Other
development discussions and end-user forums happened on two separated ML (one
for V4L and another for DVB).
At the beginning of 2009, we've created linux-media@vger.kernel.org, meaning to
be the main upstream development mailing list for drivers/media, including V4L
and DVB core and drivers.
The choice for vger.kernel.org were due to the fact that most of upstream lists
are there. Also, its anti-spam filtering rules are better than what we
currently have at linuxtv.org.
For now, both video4linux-list and linux-dvb ML will remain active, but more
focused on end users. It is expected that those lists will gradually be
replaced also by linux-media@vger.kernel.org.
This patch reflect those changes at linux MAINTAINERS file.
Since the development and bug fix discussions will now happen at
linux-media@vger.kernel.org, this patch does the following changes
- replaces v4l-dvb-maintainer ML for the new
linux-media@vger.kernel.org;
- replaces video4linux ML for the new linux-media@vger.kernel.org;
While here, it also:
- Fixes the existing -git tree entries for drivers/media (since the
repository name changed);
- Adds the missing drivers/media -git tree entry on a few maintainers
entries that don't point to a tree.
As Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> reported, cx88 has some compilation issues:
drivers/built-in.o: In function `cx88_call_i2c_clients':
(.text+0x20af17): undefined reference to `videobuf_dvb_get_frontend'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `cx8802_probe':
cx88-mpeg.c:(.devinit.text+0x268c4): undefined reference to `videobuf_dvb_alloc_frontend'
cx88-mpeg.c:(.devinit.text+0x268ea): undefined reference to `videobuf_dvb_dealloc_frontends'
After carefully examining the code, with the current code, several cx88 drivers
(cx8800, cx8802, cx88_dvb and cx88_blackbird) should be compiled as a module,
if one of them is marked as such. Just fixing Kconfig could create a very complex
set of rules. Also, this hides a problem with the current approach where the dvb
functionality weren't confined inside dvb module.
What happens is that:
- cx88-i2c (part of cx8800) has some special rules if DVB;
- cx88-mpeg (cx8802 module) has also part of DVB init code;
- cx88-dvb has the rest of the dvb code;
- cx88-blackbird can be used with cx88-mpeg, having cx88-dvb or not.
So, instead of doing some tricks at Kconfig and wait for a next breakage,
this patch moves the dvb code inside cx88-i2c and cx88-mpeg into cx88-dvb.
Another problem is that cx8802 were being compiled, even without cx88-dvb
and cx88-blackbird modules.
While on this code, let's fix also a reported problem:
http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2009-January/031225.html
A solution for the issue were proposed here:

Thanks to Randy, Andy, Gregoire and Thomas for helping us to detect
and solve the issues.

I extracted most of the CONFIG manipulation code from one of my

The script is not integrated with the normal Kconfig machinery
and doesn't do any checking against Kconfig files, but just manipulates
that text format. This is always done at make time anyways.
I believe this script would be a useful standard addition for scripts/*
Sample usage:
./scripts/config --disable smp
Disable SMP in .config file
./scripts/config --file otherdir/.config --module e1000e

so more will fit.
The second part is that smaller delays are now shown with a

The issue turns out to be that we when we install firmware pick
up the list of firmware blobs from firmware/Makefile.
And this triggers the Makefile rules to update ihex2fw.
There were two solutions for this issue:
1) Move the list of firmware blobs to a separate file
2) Avoid ihex2fw rebuild by moving it to scripts
As I seriously beleive that the list of firmware blobs should be

nfsd: Ensure nfsv4 calls the underlying filesystem on LOCKT
Since nfsv4 allows LOCKT without an open, but the ->lock() method is a
file method, we fake up a struct file in the nfsv4 code with just the
fields we need initialized. But we forgot to initialize the file
operations, with the result that LOCKT never results in a call to the
filesystem's ->lock() method (if it exists).
We could just add that one more initialization. But this hack of faking
up a struct file with only some fields initialized seems the kind of
thing that might cause more problems in the future. We should either do
an open and get a real struct file, or make lock-testing an inode (not a
file) method.
This patch does the former.

disable_nonboot_cpus calls _cpu_down. But _cpu_down requires that the
caller already created the stop_machine workqueue (like cpu_down does).
Otherwise a call to stop_machine will lead to accesses to random memory
regions.
When introducing this new interface (9ea09af3bd3090e8349ca2899ca2011bd94cda85
"stop_machine: introduce stop_machine_create/destroy") I missed the second
call site of _cpu_down.
So add the missing stop_machine_create/destroy calls to disable_nonboot_cpus
as well.

HID: fix hid->hiddev initialization in hiddev_connect()
Commit 079034073fa ("HID: hiddev cleanup -- handle all error conditions
properly") by mistake removed proper initialization of hid->hiddev pointer
in hiddev_connect() in case usb_register_dev() succeeds for the hiddev node.
Put it properly back in place.
