I added IS_NOATIME(inode) macro definition in include/linux/fs.h, true if

I noticed cache misses in touch_atime() that can be avoided if we keep
mnt_count & mnt_expiry_mark in a different cache line than mnt_flags
(mostly read)mnt_count & mnt_expiry_mark are modified each time a file is opened/closed
in a file system.touch_atime() is called each time a file is read, and generally needs to
read mnt_flags.Other fields of struct vfsmount are mostly read so I chose to move
mnt_count & mnt_expiry_mark at the end of struct vfsmount. And adding a
comment so that nobody tries to re-arrange fields to fill the holes :)On 64bits platforms, the new offsetof(mnt_count) is 0xC0
On 32bits platforms, it is 0x60, so I didnot add a
____cacheline_aligned_in_smp because it would have a too big impact on the
size of this object (in particular if CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT=7)Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet

Update all arch/*/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S to not include space for initramfs

Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds -
The file init/initramfs.c is always compiled and linked in the kernel
vmlinux even when BLK_DEV_RAM and BLK_DEV_INITRD are disabled and the
system isn't using any form of an initramfs or initrd. In this situation
the code is only used to unpack a (static) default initial rootfilesystem.
The current init/initramfs.c code. usr/initramfs_data.o compiles to a size
of ~15 kbytes. Disabling BLK_DEV_RAM and BLK_DEV_INTRD shrinks the kernel
code size with ~60 Kbytes.This patch avoids compiling in the code and data for initramfs support if
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD is not defined. Instead of the initramfs code and
data it uses a small routine in init/noinitramfs.c to setup an initial
static default environment for mounting a rootfilesystem later on in the
kernel initialisation process. The new code is: 164 bytes of size.The patch is separated in two parts:
1) doesn't compile initramfs code when CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD is not set
2) changing all plaforms vmlinux.lds.S files to not reserve an area of
PAGE_SIZE when CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD is not set.[deweerdt@free.fr: warning fix]

string sysctls don't writeback more than *oldlenp bytes.
OK, that's because sizeof(char) == 1int sysctls writeback anything in (0, table->maxlen] range
Though accept integers divisible by sizeof(int) for writing.sysctl_jiffies and sysctl_ms_jiffies don't writeback anything but

a) *oldlenp == 0, not doing writeback
b) *oldlenp >= sizeof(int), writing one integer.-EINVAL still returned for *oldlenp == 1, 2, 3.

This does several things.
- It moves looking up of the current foreground console into process
context where we can safely take the semaphore that protects this
operation.
- It uses the new flavor of work queue processing.
- This generates a factor of do_SAK, __do_SAK that runs immediately.
- This calls __do_SAK with the console semaphore held ensuring nothing
else happens to the console while we process the SAK operation.
- With the console SAK processing moved into process context this
patch removes the xchg operations that I used to attempt to attomically
update struct pid, because of the strange locking used in the SAK processing.
With SAK using the normal console semaphore nothing special is needed.Cc: Oleg Nesterov

Add retain_initrd option to control freeing of initrd memory after
extraction. By default, free memory as previously.The first boot will need to hold a copy of the in memory fs for the second
boot. This image can be large (much larger than the kernel), hence we can
save time when the memory loader is slow. Also, it reduces the memory
footprint while extracting the first boot since you don't need another copy
of the fs.Signed-off-by: Michael Neuling

This patch fixes some missing ptrace bits on x86_64. PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL is
hooked up and implemented. This required generalizing arch_prctl_skas
slightly to take a task_struct to modify. Previously, it always operated on
current.Reading and writing the debug registers is also enabled by un-ifdefing the
code that implements that. It turns out that x86_64 is identical to i386, so
the same code can be used.Signed-off-by: Jeff Dike

x86_64 needs some TLS fixes. What was missing was remembering the child
thread id during clone and stuffing it into the child during each context
switch.The %fs value is stored separately in the thread structure since the host
controls what effect it has on the actual register file. The host also needs
to store it in its own thread struct, so we need the value kept outside the
register file.arch_prctl_skas was fixed to call PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL appropriately. There is
some saving and restoring of registers in the ARCH_SET_* cases so that the
correct set of registers are changed on the host and restored to the process
when it runs again.Signed-off-by: Jeff Dike

The startup code panics a lot if anything goes wrong early on. This is wrong
for several reasons, like the kernel isn't running, so you can't really be
calling into it yet, but the harm comes from useful error messages being
trapped in the printk ring where no one will ever see them.This patch changes these panics to perror and printf in wrappers which also
exit. Normal, informational, prints are also wrapped so that fflush(stdout)
is called after each one. This is so the output appears in the correct
sequence in the event of an error.Signed-off-by: Jeff Dike
