A memmap is a directory in sysfs which includes 3 text files: start, end
and type. For example:start: 0x100000
end: 0x7e7b1cff
type: System RAMInterface firmware_map_add was not called explicitly. Remove it and add
function firmware_map_add_hotplug as hotplug interface of memmap.Each memory entry has a memmap in sysfs, When we hot-add new memory, sysfs
does not export memmap entry for it. We add a call in function add_memory
to function firmware_map_add_hotplug.Add a new function add_sysfs_fw_map_entry() to create memmap entry, it
will be called when initialize memmap and hot-add memory.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: un-kernedoc a no longer kerneldoc comment]

commit e815af95 ("change all_unreclaimable zone member to flags") changed
all_unreclaimable member to bit flag. But it had an undesireble side
effect. free_one_page() is one of most hot path in linux kernel and
increasing atomic ops in it can reduce kernel performance a bit.Thus, this patch revert such commit partially. at least
all_unreclaimable shouldn't share memory word with other zone flags.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix patch interaction]

free_hot_page() is just a wrapper around free_hot_cold_page() with
parameter 'cold = 0'. After adding a clear comment for
free_hot_cold_page(), it is reasonable to remove a level of call.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix build]

A frequent questions from users about memory management is what numbers of
swap ents are user for processes. And this information will give some
hints to oom-killer.Besides we can count the number of swapents per a process by scanning
/proc//smaps, this is very slow and not good for usual process
information handler which works like 'ps' or 'top'. (ps or top is now
enough slow..)This patch adds a counter of swapents to mm_counter and update is at each
swap events. Information is exported via /proc//status file as[kamezawa@bluextal memory]$ cat /proc/self/status

Considering the nature of per mm stats, it's the shared object among
threads and can be a cache-miss point in the page fault path.This patch adds per-thread cache for mm_counter. RSS value will be
counted into a struct in task_struct and synchronized with mm's one at
events.Now, in this patch, the event is the number of calls to handle_mm_fault.
Per-thread value is added to mm at each 64 calls.rough estimation with small benchmark on parallel thread (2threads) shows
[before]
4.5 cache-miss/faults
[after]
4.0 cache-miss/faults
Anyway, the most contended object is mmap_sem if the number of threads grows.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes]

Rename for_each_bit to for_each_set_bit in the kernel source tree. To

for_each_set_bit(). This is a (very) temporary thing to ease the migration.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: add temporary for_each_bit()]

Now that we have correct COMMIT semantics in writeback_single_inode, we can
reduce and simplify nfs_wb_all(). Also replace nfs_wb_nocommit() with a
call to filemap_write_and_wait(), which doesn't need to hold the
inode->i_mutex.With that done, we can eliminate nfs_write_mapping() altogether.

Get rid of the initialize dquot operation - it is now always called from
the filesystem and if a filesystem really needs it's own (which none

Currently various places in the VFS call vfs_dq_init directly. This means
we tie the quota code into the VFS. Get rid of that and make the
filesystem responsible for the initialization. For most metadata operations
this is a straight forward move into the methods, but for truncate and
open it's a bit more complicated.For truncate we currently only call vfs_dq_init for the sys_truncate case
because open already takes care of it for ftruncate and open(O_TRUNC) - the
new code causes an additional vfs_dq_init for those which is harmless.For open the initialization is moved from do_filp_open into the open method,
which means it happens slightly earlier now, and only for regular files.
The latter is fine because we don't need to initialize it for operations
on special files, and we already do it as part of the namespace operations
for directories.Add a dquot_file_open helper that filesystems that support generic quotas
can use to fill in ->open.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

Currenly sync_quota_sb does a lot of sync and truncate action that only
applies to "VFS" style quotas and is actively harmful for the sync
performance in XFS. Move it into vfs_quota_sync and add a wait parameter
to ->quota_sync to tell if we need it or not.My audit of the GFS2 code says it's also not needed given the way GFS2
implements quotas, but I'd be happy if this can get a detailed review.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig
Signed-off-by: Jan Kara -
Currently Q_XQUOTASYNC calls into the quota_sync method, but XFS does something
entirely different in it than the rest of the filesystems. xfs_quota which
calls Q_XQUOTASYNC expects an asynchronous data writeout to flush delayed
allocations, while the "VFS" quota support wants to flush changes to the quota
file.So make Q_XQUOTASYNC call into the writeback code directly and make the
quota_sync method optional as XFS doesn't need in the sense expected by the
rest of the quota code.GFS2 was using limited XFS-style quota and has a quota_sync method fitting
neither the style used by vfs_quota_sync nor xfs_fs_quota_sync. I left it
in for now as per discussion with Steve it expects to be called from the
sync path this way.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig
