The perf_event overflow handler does not receive any caller-derived
argument, so many callers need to resort to looking up the perf_event
in their local data structure. This is ugly and doesn't scale if a
single callback services many perf_events.Fix by adding a context parameter to perf_event_create_kernel_counter()
(and derived hardware breakpoints APIs) and storing it in the perf_event.
The field can be accessed from the callback as event->overflow_handler_context.
All callers are updated.Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity

Add a NODE level to the generic cache events which is used to measure
local vs remote memory accesses. Like all other cache events, an
ACCESS is HIT+MISS, if there is no way to distinguish between reads
and writes do reads only etc..The below needs filling out for !x86 (which I filled out with
unsupported events).I'm fairly sure ARM can leave it like that since it doesn't strike me as
an architecture that even has NUMA support. SH might have something since
it does appear to have some NUMA bits.Sparc64, PowerPC and MIPS certainly want a good look there since they
clearly are NUMA capable.Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra

This patch improves the code managing the extra shared registers
used for offcore_response events on Intel Nehalem/Westmere. The
idea is to use static allocation instead of dynamic allocation.
This simplifies greatly the get and put constraint routines for
those events.The patch also renames per_core to shared_regs because the same
data structure gets used whether or not HT is on. When HT is
off, those events still need to coordination because they use
a extra MSR that has to be shared within an event group.Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian

The nmi parameter indicated if we could do wakeups from the current
context, if not, we would set some state and self-IPI and let the
resulting interrupt do the wakeup.For the various event classes:
- hardware: nmi=0; PMI is in fact an NMI or we run irq_work_run from
the PMI-tail (ARM etc.)
- tracepoint: nmi=0; since tracepoint could be from NMI context.
- software: nmi=[0,1]; some, like the schedule thing cannot
perform wakeups, and hence need 0.As one can see, there is very little nmi=1 usage, and the down-side of
not using it is that on some platforms some software events can have a
jiffy delay in wakeup (when arch_irq_work_raise isn't implemented).The up-side however is that we can remove the nmi parameter and save a
bunch of conditionals in fast paths.Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra

Although it is used (by i915) on nothing but tmpfs, read_cache_page_gfp()
is unsuited to tmpfs, because it inserts a page into pagecache before
calling the filesystem's ->readpage: tmpfs may have pages in swapcache
which only it knows how to locate and switch to filecache.At present tmpfs provides a ->readpage method, and copes with this by
copying pages; but soon we can simplify it by removing its ->readpage.
Provide shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp() now, ready for that transition,Export shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp() and add it to list in shmem_fs.h,
with shmem_read_mapping_page() inline for the common mapping_gfp case.(shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp or shmem_read_cache_page_gfp? Generally the
read_mapping_page functions use the mapping's ->readpage, and the
read_cache_page functions use the supplied filler, so I think
read_cache_page_gfp was slightly misnamed.)Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins

2.6.35's new truncate convention gave tmpfs the opportunity to control
its file truncation, no longer enforced from outside by vmtruncate().
We shall want to build upon that, to handle pagecache and swap together.Slightly redefine the ->truncate_range interface: let it now be called
between the unmap_mapping_range()s, with the filesystem responsible for
doing the truncate_inode_pages_range() from it - just as the filesystem
is nowadays responsible for doing that from its ->setattr.Let's rename shmem_notify_change() to shmem_setattr(). Instead of
calling the generic truncate_setsize(), bring that code in so we can
call shmem_truncate_range() - which will later be updated to perform its
own variant of truncate_inode_pages_range().Remove the punch_hole unmap_mapping_range() from shmem_truncate_range():
now that the COW's unmap_mapping_range() comes after ->truncate_range,
there is no need to call it a third time.Export shmem_truncate_range() and add it to the list in shmem_fs.h, so
that i915_gem_object_truncate() can call it explicitly in future; get
this patch in first, then update drm/i915 once this is available (until
then, i915 will just be doing the truncate_inode_pages() twice).Though introduced five years ago, no other filesystem is implementing
->truncate_range, and its only other user is madvise(,,MADV_REMOVE): we
expect to convert it to fallocate(,FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE,,) shortly,
whereupon ->truncate_range can be removed from inode_operations -
shmem_truncate_range() will help i915 across that transition too.Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins

commit 21a3c96 uses node_start/end_pfn(nid) for detection start/end
of nodes. But, it's not defined in linux/mmzone.h but defined in
/arch/???/include/mmzone.h which is included only under
CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES=y.Then, we see
mm/page_cgroup.c: In function 'page_cgroup_init':
mm/page_cgroup.c:308: error: implicit declaration of function 'node_start_pfn'
mm/page_cgroup.c:309: error: implicit declaration of function 'node_end_pfn'So, fixiing page_cgroup.c is an idea...
But node_start_pfn()/node_end_pfn() is a very generic macro and
should be implemented in the same manner for all archs.
(m32r has different implementation...)This patch removes definitions of node_start/end_pfn() in each archs
and defines a unified one in linux/mmzone.h. It's not under
CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES, now.A result of macro expansion is here (mm/page_cgroup.c)
for !NUMA
start_pfn = ((&contig_page_data)->node_start_pfn);
end_pfn = ({ pg_data_t *__pgdat = (&contig_page_data); __pgdat->node_start_pfn + __pgdat->node_spanned_pages;});for NUMA (x86-64)
start_pfn = ((node_data[nid])->node_start_pfn);

The PM core doesn't handle suspend failures correctly when it comes to
asynchronously suspended devices. These devices are moved onto the
dpm_suspended_list as soon as the corresponding async thread is
started up, and they remain on the list even if they fail to suspend
or the sleep transition is cancelled before they get suspended. As a
result, when the PM core unwinds the transition, it tries to resume
the devices even though they were never suspended.This patch (as1474) fixes the problem by adding a new "is_suspended"
flag to dev_pm_info. Devices are resumed only if the flag is set.[rjw:
* Moved the dev->power.is_suspended check into device_resume(),
because we need to complete dev->power.completion and clear
dev->power.is_prepared too for devices whose
dev->power.is_suspended flags are unset.
* Fixed __device_suspend() to avoid setting dev->power.is_suspended
if async_error is different from zero.]Signed-off-by: Alan Stern

Commit 13e12d14e2dc ("vfs: reorganize 'struct inode' layout a bit")
moved things around a bit changed i_state to be unsigned int instead of
unsigned long. That was to help structure layout for the 64-bit case,
and shrink 'struct inode' a bit (admittedly that only happened when
spinlock debugging was on and i_flags didn't pack with i_lock).However, Meelis Roos reports that this results in unaligned exceptions
on sprc, and it turns out that the bit-locking primitives that we use
for the I_NEW bit want to use the bitops. Which want 'unsigned long',
not 'unsigned int'.We really should fix the bit locking code to not have that kind of
requirement, but that's a much bigger change. So for now, revert that
field back to 'unsigned long' (but keep the other re-ordering changes
from the commit that caused this).Andi points out that we have played games with this in 'struct page', so
it's solvable with other hacks too, but since right now the struct inode
size advantage only happens with some rare config options, it's not
worth fighting.It _would_ be worth fixing the bitlocking code, though. Especially
since there is no type safety in the bitlocking code (this never caused
any warnings, and worked fine on x86-64, because the bitlocks take a
'void *' and x86-64 doesn't care that deeply about alignment). So it's
currently a very easy problem to trigger by mistake and never notice.Reported-by: Meelis Roos

____call_usermodehelper() now erases any credentials set by the
subprocess_inf::init() function. The problem is that commit
17f60a7da150 ("capabilites: allow the application of capability limits
to usermode helpers") creates and commits new credentials with
prepare_kernel_cred() after the call to the init() function. This wipes
all keyrings after umh_keys_init() is called.The best way to deal with this is to put the init() call just prior to
the commit_creds() call, and pass the cred pointer to init(). That
means that umh_keys_init() and suchlike can modify the credentials
_before_ they are published and potentially in use by the rest of the
system.This prevents request_key() from working as it is prevented from passing
the session keyring it set up with the authorisation token to
/sbin/request-key, and so the latter can't assume the authority to
instantiate the key. This causes the in-kernel DNS resolver to fail
with ENOKEY unconditionally.Signed-off-by: David Howells

There is a problem that kdump(2nd kernel) sometimes hangs up due
to a pending IPI from 1st kernel. Kernel panic occurs because IPI
comes before call_single_queue is initialized.To fix the crash, rename init_call_single_data() to call_function_init()
and call it in start_kernel() so that call_single_queue can be
initialized before enabling interrupts.The details of the crash are:
(1) 2nd kernel boots up
(2) A pending IPI from 1st kernel comes when irqs are first enabled
in start_kernel().(3) Kernel tries to handle the interrupt, but call_single_queue
is not initialized yet at this point. As a result, in the
generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt(), NULL pointer
dereference occurs when list_replace_init() tries to access
&q->list.next.Therefore this patch changes the name of init_call_single_data()
to call_function_init() and calls it before local_irq_enable()
in start_kernel().Signed-off-by: Takao Indoh
