This change reverts the 033b96fd30db52a710d97b06f87d16fc59fee0f1 commit
from Kay Sievers that removed the mount/umount uevents from the kernel.
Some older versions of HAL still depend on these events to detect when a
new device has been mounted. These events are not correctly emitted,
and are broken by design, and so, should not be relied upon by any
future program. Instead, the /proc/mounts file should be polled to
properly detect this kind of event.
A feature-removal-schedule.txt entry has been added, noting when this
interface will be removed from the kernel.

[PATCH] tmpfs: fix mount mpol nodelist parsing
I've been dissatisfied with the mpol_nodelist mount option which was
added to tmpfs earlier in -rc. Replace it by mpol=policy:nodelist.
And it was broken: a nodelist is a comma-separated list of numbers and
ranges; the mount options are a comma-separated list of token=values.
Whoops, blindly strsep'ing on commas doesn't work so well: since we've
no numeric tokens, and unlikely to add them, use that to distinguish.
Move the mpol= parsing to shmem_parse_mpol under CONFIG_NUMA, reject
all its options as invalid if not NUMA. /proc shows MPOL_PREFERRED
as "prefer", so use that name for the policy instead of "preferred".
Enforce that mpol=default has no nodelist; that mpol=prefer has one
node only; that mpol=bind has a nodelist; but let mpol=interleave use
node_online_map if no nodelist given. Describe this in tmpfs.txt.

This patch updates and fixes sys_tas() routine for m32r.
In the previous implementation, a lockup rarely caused at sys_tas()

I rewrote sys_tas() routine by using "lock -> unlock" instructions, and
utilizing the m32r's interrupt handling characteristics; the m32r processor
can accept interrupts only at the 32-bit instruction boundary. So, the
"unlock" instruction can be executed continuously after the "lock"
instruction execution without any interruptions.
In addition, to solve such a page_fault problem, I use a fixup code like
get_user().
And, as for the kernel lockup problem, we found that a calling
do_page_fault() routine with disabling interrupts might cause a lockup at
flush_tlb_others(), because we checked a completion of IPI handler's
operations in a spin-locked critical section.
Therefore, by using "lock -> unlock" code, we can implement the sys_tas()
rouitine without disabling interrupts explicitly, then no lockups would
happen at flush_tlb_others(), I hope.
Compile check and some working test in SMP environment have done.
When using the dasd diag discipline, the base discipline module (eckd or fba)
can be unloaded, even though the dasd driver requires both discipline modules
(base and diag) to work correctly.
Implement reference counting for both base and diag discipline modules in

[PATCH] Terminate process that fails on a constrained allocation
Some allocations are restricted to a limited set of nodes (due to memory
policies or cpuset constraints). If the page allocator is not able to find
enough memory then that does not mean that overall system memory is low.
In particular going postal and more or less randomly shooting at processes
is not likely going to help the situation but may just lead to suicide (the
whole system coming down).
It is better to signal to the process that no memory exists given the
constraints that the process (or the configuration of the process) has
placed on the allocation behavior. The process may be killed but then the
sysadmin or developer can investigate the situation. The solution is
similar to what we do when running out of hugepages.
This patch adds a check before we kill processes. At that point
performance considerations do not matter much so we just scan the zonelist
and reconstruct a list of nodes. If the list of nodes does not contain all
online nodes then this is a constrained allocation and we should kill the
current process.

[PATCH] OOM kill: children accounting
In the badness() calculation, there's currently this piece of code:
/*
* Processes which fork a lot of child processes are likely
* a good choice. We add the vmsize of the children if they
* have an own mm. This prevents forking servers to flood the
* machine with an endless amount of children
*/
list_for_each(tsk, &p->children) {
struct task_struct *chld;
chld = list_entry(tsk, struct task_struct, sibling);
if (chld->mm = p->mm && chld->mm)
points += chld->mm->total_vm;
}
The intention is clear: If some server (apache) keeps spawning new children
and we run OOM, we want to kill the father rather than picking a child.
This -- to some degree -- also helps a bit with getting fork bombs under
control, though I'd consider this a desirable side-effect rather than a
feature.
There's one problem with this: No matter how many or few children there are,
if just one of them misbehaves, and all others (including the father) do
everything right, we still always kill the whole family. This hits in real
life; whether it's javascript in konqueror resulting in kdeinit (and thus the
whole KDE session) being hit or just a classical server that spawns children.
Sidenote: The killer does kill all direct children as well, not only the
selected father, see oom_kill_process().
The idea in attached patch is that we do want to account the memory
consumption of the (direct) children to the father -- however not fully.
This maintains the property that fathers with too many children will still
very likely be picked, whereas a single misbehaving child has the chance to
be picked by the OOM killer.
In the patch I account only half (rounded up) of the children's vm_size to
the parent. This means that if one child eats more mem than the rest of
the family, it will be picked, otherwise it's still the father and thus the
whole family that gets selected.
This is heuristics -- we could debate whether accounting for a fourth would
be better than for half of it. Or -- if people would consider it worth the
trouble -- make it a sysctl. For now I sticked to accounting for half,
which should IMHO be a significant improvement.
The patch does one more thing: As users tend to be irritated by the choice
of killed processes (mainly because the children are killed first, despite
some of them having a very low OOM score), I added some more output: The
selected (father) process will be reported first and it's oom_score printed
to syslog.
Description:
Only account for half of children's vm size in oom score calculation
This should still give the parent enough point in case of fork bombs. If
any child however has more than 50% of the vm size of all children
together, it'll get a higher score and be elected.
This patch also makes the kernel display the oom_score.

problem because it had a hook in the 32-bit adjtimex compat routine
that attempted to work out what the generic timekeeping code would
do and alter the factor and offset to match. However, that code
was very complex and it wasn't clear that it still matched what the
generic code would do.
Now we use the generic current_tick_length() routine that was recently
added to check that the current tick will be as long as we expect; if
not we recompute the factor and offset. This keeps gettimeofday and
xtime in sync. In addition we check that gettimeofday hasn't got ahead
of xtime on each timer interrupt; if it has, we resync.

[PATCH] fix handling of st_nlink on procfs root
1) it should use nr_processes(), not nr_threads; otherwise we are getting
very confused find(1) and friends, among other things.
2) better do that at stat() time than at every damn lookup in procfs root.
Patch had been sitting in FC4 kernels for many months now...

[PATCH] don't mangle INQUIRY if cmddt or evpd bits are set
sbp2.c mangles INQUIRY response in a way that only applies to standard
inquiry data (i.e. when both cmddt and evpd bits are 0). Leave other cases
alone; e.g. when asking for VPD the length of reply is in byte 3, not 4
and byte 4 is the first byte of device serial number.

[PATCH] GFP_KERNEL allocations in atomic (auditsc)
audit_log_exit() is called from atomic contexts and gets explicit
gfp_mask argument; it should use it for all allocations rather
than doing some with gfp_mask and some with GFP_KERNEL.
acpi_rs_get_list_length() needs to account for all the vendor-defined data
bytes. Failing to include these causes buffers to be sized too small,
which causes slab corruption when we later convert AML to resources and run
off the end of the buffer.
This causes slab corruption on machines that use ACPI vendor-defined
resources. All HP ia64 machines do, and I'm told that some NEC machines
may as well.

One of the parameters to the __pud_free_tlb() macro for powerpc is

The windfarm_pm112 module relies on smu_sat_get_sdb_partition which is in

[PATCH] s390: smp initialization speed
The last changes that introduced the additional_cpus command line parameter
also introduced a regression regarding smp initialization speed. In
smp_setup_cpu_possible_map() cpu_present_map is set to the same value as
cpu_possible_map. Especially that means that bits in the present map will be
set for cpus that are not present. This will cause a slow down in the initial
cpu_up() loop in smp_init() since trying to take cpus online that aren't
present takes a while.
Fix this by setting only bits for present cpus in cpu_present_map and set
cpu_present_map to cpu_possible_map in smp_cpus_done().

Introduce possible_cpus command line option. Hard sets the number of bits set

and a different number of cpus are present at startup.

the system the maximum number of additional cpus needs to be specified with
this option.
This change is necessary in order to limit the waste of per_cpu data

[PATCH] Introduce CONFIG_DEFAULT_MIGRATION_COST
Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> wrote:
The boot sequence on s390 sometimes takes ages and we spend a very long
time (up to one or two minutes) in calibrate_migration_costs. The time
spent there differs from boot to boot. Also the calculated costs differ
a lot. I've seen differences by up to a factor of 15 (yes, factor not
percent). Also I doubt that making these measurements make much sense on
a completely virtualized architecture where you cannot tell how much cpu
time you will get anyway.
So introduce the CONFIG_DEFAULT_MIGRATION_COST method for an architecture
to set the scheduler migration costs. This turns off automatic detection
of migration costs. Makes sense on virtual platforms, where migration
costs are hard to measure accurately.
