module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int. In
fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy
trick.It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option. For this version
it'll simply give a warning, but it'll break next kernel version.Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell

For historical reasons, we allow module_param(bool) to take an int (or
an unsigned int). That's going away.A few drivers really want an int: they set it to -1 and a parameter
will set it to 0 or 1. This sucks: reading them from sysfs will give
'Y' for both -1 and 1, but if we change it to an int, then the users
might be broken (if they did "param" instead of "param=1").Use a new 'bint' parser for them.
(ntfs has a different problem: it needs an int for debug_msgs because
it's also exposed via sysctl.)Cc: Steve Glendinning

We look for symbols of form __mod__device_table, and for all

Recent tools do not want to use /proc to retrieve module information. A few
values are currently missing from sysfs to replace the information available
in /proc/modules.This adds /sys/module/*/{coresize,initsize,taint} attributes.
TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE (P) and TAINT_OOT_MODULE (O) flags are both always
shown now, and do no longer exclude each other, also in /proc/modules.Replace the open-coded sysfs attribute initializers with the __ATTR() macro.
Add the new attributes to Documentation/ABI.

module_ref contains two "unsigned int" fields.
Thats now too small, since some machines can open more than 2^32 files.
Check commit 518de9b39e8 (fs: allow for more than 2^31 files) for
reference.We can add an aligned(2 * sizeof(unsigned long)) attribute to force
alloc_percpu() allocating module_ref areas in single cache lines.Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet

Looking at /proc/kallsyms, one starts to ponder whether all of the extra
strtab-related complexity in module.c is worth the memory savings.Instead of making the add_kallsyms() loop even more complex, I tried the
other route of deleting the strmap logic and naively copying each string
into core_strtab with no consideration for consolidating duplicates.Performance on an "already exists" insmod of nvidia.ko (runs
add_kallsyms() but does not actually initialize the module):Original scheme: 1.230s
With naive copying: 0.058sExtra space used: 35k (of a 408k module).

It appears that you can only read the sprom contents with aligned 16-bit
reads: anything else causes at least some versions of the broadcom
chipset to abort the PCI transaction, returning 0xff.This apparently doesn't trigger very often, because most setups don't
use an external srom chip, and the OTP sprom loading doesn't have this
issue. But at least the current 11" Macbook Air does trigger it, and
wireless communications were broken as a result.Acked-by: Arend van Spriel

Handling balloon hibernate / restore is tricky. If the balloon was
inflated before going into the hibernation state, upon resume, the host
will not have any memory of that. Any pages that were passed on to the
host earlier would most likely be invalid, and the host will have to
re-balloon to the previous value to get in the pre-hibernate state.So the only sane thing for the guest to do here is to discard all the
pages that were put in the balloon. When to discard the pages is the
next question.One solution is to deflate the balloon just before writing the image to
the disk (in the freeze() PM callback). However, asking for pages from
the host just to discard them immediately after seems wasteful of
resources. Hence, it makes sense to do this by just fudging our
counters soon after wakeup. This means we don't deflate the balloon
before sleep, and also don't put unnecessary pressure on the host.This also helps in the thaw case: if the freeze fails for whatever
reason, the balloon should continue to remain in the inflated state.
This was tested by issuing 'swapoff -a' and trying to go into the S4
state. That fails, and the balloon stays inflated, as expected. Both
the host and the guest are happy.Finally, in the restore() callback, we empty the list of pages that were
previously given off to the host, add the appropriate number of pages to
the totalram_pages counter, reset the num_pages counter to 0, and
all is fine.As a last step, delete the vqs on the freeze callback to prepare for
hibernation, and re-create them in the restore and thaw callbacks to
resume normal operation.The kthread doesn't race with any operations here, since it's frozen
before the freeze() call and is thawed after the thaw() and restore()
callbacks, so we're safe with that.Signed-off-by: Amit Shah

Remove all vqs and associated buffers in the freeze callback which
prepares us to go into hibernation state. On restore, re-create all the
vqs and populate the input vqs with buffers to get to the pre-hibernate
state.Note: Any outstanding unconsumed buffers are discarded; which means
there's a possibility of data loss in case the host or the guest didn't
consume any data already present in the vqs. This can be addressed in a
later patch series, perhaps in virtio common code.Signed-off-by: Amit Shah
