9c0cbd54ce [PATCH] TIOC* compat ioctl handling
TIOCSTART and TIOCSTOP are defined in asm/ioctls.h and asm/termios.h by
various architectures but not actually implemented anywhere but in the IRIX
compatibility layer, so remove their COMPATIBLE_IOCTL from parisc, ppc64
and sparc64.

Move the TIOCSLTC COMPATIBLE_IOCTL to common code, guided by an ifdef to
only show up on architectures that support it (same as the code handling it
in tty_ioctl.c), aswell as it's brother TIOCGLTC that wasn't handled so
far.

aaa4059bc2 [PATCH] ext3: Fix unmapped buffers in transaction's lists
Fix the problem (BUG 4964) with unmapped buffers in transaction's
t_sync_data list.  The problem is we need to call filesystem's own
invalidatepage() from block_write_full_page().

block_write_full_page() must call filesystem's invalidatepage().  Otherwise
following nasty race can happen:

   proc 1                                        proc 2
   ------                                        ------
- write some new data to 'offset'
  => bh gets to the transactions data list
                                              - starts truncate
                                                => i_size set to new size
- mpage_writepages()
  - ext3_ordered_writepage() to 'offset'
    - block_write_full_page()
      - page->index > end_index+1
        - block_invalidatepage()
          - discard_buffer()
            - clear_buffer_mapped()

- commit triggers and finds unmapped buffer - BOOM!

d381d8a9a0 [PATCH] SELinux: canonicalize getxattr()
This patch allows SELinux to canonicalize the value returned from
getxattr() via the security_inode_getsecurity() hook, which is called after
the fs level getxattr() function.

The purpose of this is to allow the in-core security context for an inode
to override the on-disk value.  This could happen in cases such as
upgrading a system to a different labeling form (e.g.  standard SELinux to
MLS) without needing to do a full relabel of the filesystem.

In such cases, we want getxattr() to return the canonical security context
that the kernel is using rather than what is stored on disk.

The implementation hooks into the inode_getsecurity(), adding another
parameter to indicate the result of the preceding fs-level getxattr() call,
so that SELinux knows whether to compare a value obtained from disk with
the kernel value.

We also now allow getxattr() to work for mountpoint labeled filesystems
(i.e.  mount with option context=foo_t), as we are able to return the
kernel value to the user.

2e9b367c22 [PATCH] hugetlb: overcommit accounting check
Basic overcommit checking for hugetlb_file_map() based on an implementation
used with demand faulting in SLES9.

Since demand faulting can't guarantee the availability of pages at mmap
time, this patch implements a basic sanity check to ensure that the number
of huge pages required to satisfy the mmap are currently available.
Despite the obvious race, I think it is a good start on doing proper
accounting.  I'd like to work towards an accounting system that mimics the
semantics of normal pages (especially for the MAP_PRIVATE/COW case).  That
work is underway and builds on what this patch starts.

Huge page shared memory segments are simpler and still maintain their
commit on shmget semantics.

4c88726597 [PATCH] hugetlb: demand fault handler
Below is a patch to implement demand faulting for huge pages.  The main
motivation for changing from prefaulting to demand faulting is so that huge
page memory areas can be allocated according to NUMA policy.

Thanks to consolidated hugetlb code, switching the behavior requires changing
only one fault handler.  The bulk of the patch just moves the logic from
hugelb_prefault() to hugetlb_pte_fault() and find_get_huge_page().

4c21e2f244 [PATCH] mm: split page table lock
Christoph Lameter demonstrated very poor scalability on the SGI 512-way, with
a many-threaded application which concurrently initializes different parts of
a large anonymous area.

This patch corrects that, by using a separate spinlock per page table page, to
guard the page table entries in that page, instead of using the mm's single
page_table_lock.  (But even then, page_table_lock is still used to guard page
table allocation, and anon_vma allocation.)

In this implementation, the spinlock is tucked inside the struct page of the
page table page: with a BUILD_BUG_ON in case it overflows - which it would in
the case of 32-bit PA-RISC with spinlock debugging enabled.

Splitting the lock is not quite for free: another cacheline access.  Ideally,
I suppose we would use split ptlock only for multi-threaded processes on
multi-cpu machines; but deciding that dynamically would have its own costs.
So for now enable it by config, at some number of cpus - since the Kconfig
language doesn't support inequalities, let preprocessor compare that with
NR_CPUS.  But I don't think it's worth being user-configurable: for good
testing of both split and unsplit configs, split now at 4 cpus, and perhaps
change that to 8 later.

There is a benefit even for singly threaded processes: kswapd can be attacking
one part of the mm while another part is busy faulting.

deceb6cd17 [PATCH] mm: follow_page with inner ptlock
Final step in pushing down common core's page_table_lock.  follow_page no
longer wants caller to hold page_table_lock, uses pte_offset_map_lock itself;
and so no page_table_lock is taken in get_user_pages itself.

But get_user_pages (and get_futex_key) do then need follow_page to pin the
page for them: take Daniel's suggestion of bitflags to follow_page.

Need one for WRITE, another for TOUCH (it was the accessed flag before:
vanished along with check_user_page_readable, but surely get_numa_maps is
wrong to mark every page it finds as accessed), another for GET.

And another, ANON to dispose of untouched_anonymous_page: it seems silly for
that to descend a second time, let follow_page observe if there was no page
table and return ZERO_PAGE if so.  Fix minor bug in that: check VM_LOCKED -
make_pages_present ought to make readonly anonymous present.

Give get_numa_maps a cond_resched while we're there.

508034a32b [PATCH] mm: unmap_vmas with inner ptlock
Remove the page_table_lock from around the calls to unmap_vmas, and replace
the pte_offset_map in zap_pte_range by pte_offset_map_lock: all callers are
now safe to descend without page_table_lock.

Don't attempt fancy locking for hugepages, just take page_table_lock in
unmap_hugepage_range.  Which makes zap_hugepage_range, and the hugetlb test in
zap_page_range, redundant: unmap_vmas calls unmap_hugepage_range anyway.  Nor
does unmap_vmas have much use for its mm arg now.

The tlb_start_vma and tlb_end_vma in unmap_page_range are now called without
page_table_lock: if they're implemented at all, they typically come down to
flush_cache_range (usually done outside page_table_lock) and flush_tlb_range
(which we already audited for the mprotect case).

705e87c0c3 [PATCH] mm: pte_offset_map_lock loops
Convert those common loops using page_table_lock on the outside and
pte_offset_map within to use just pte_offset_map_lock within instead.

These all hold mmap_sem (some exclusively, some not), so at no level can a
page table be whipped away from beneath them.  But whereas pte_alloc loops
tested with the "atomic" pmd_present, these loops are testing with pmd_none,
which on i386 PAE tests both lower and upper halves.

That's now unsafe, so add a cast into pmd_none to test only the vital lower
half: we lose a little sensitivity to a corrupt middle directory, but not
enough to worry about.  It appears that i386 and UML were the only
architectures vulnerable in this way, and pgd and pud no problem.

c74df32c72 [PATCH] mm: ptd_alloc take ptlock
Second step in pushing down the page_table_lock.  Remove the temporary
bridging hack from __pud_alloc, __pmd_alloc, __pte_alloc: expect callers not
to hold page_table_lock, whether it's on init_mm or a user mm; take
page_table_lock internally to check if a racing task already allocated.

Convert their callers from common code.  But avoid coming back to change them
again later: instead of moving the spin_lock(&mm->page_table_lock) down,
switch over to new macros pte_alloc_map_lock and pte_unmap_unlock, which
encapsulate the mapping+locking and unlocking+unmapping together, and in the
end may use alternatives to the mm page_table_lock itself.

These callers all hold mmap_sem (some exclusively, some not), so at no level
can a page table be whipped away from beneath them; and pte_alloc uses the
"atomic" pmd_present to test whether it needs to allocate.  It appears that on
all arches we can safely descend without page_table_lock.

365e9c87a9 [PATCH] mm: update_hiwaters just in time
update_mem_hiwater has attracted various criticisms, in particular from those
concerned with mm scalability.  Originally it was called whenever rss or
total_vm got raised.  Then many of those callsites were replaced by a timer
tick call from account_system_time.  Now Frank van Maarseveen reports that to
be found inadequate.  How about this?  Works for Frank.

Replace update_mem_hiwater, a poor combination of two unrelated ops, by macros
update_hiwater_rss and update_hiwater_vm.  Don't attempt to keep
mm->hiwater_rss up to date at timer tick, nor every time we raise rss (usually
by 1): those are hot paths.  Do the opposite, update only when about to lower
rss (usually by many), or just before final accounting in do_exit.  Handle
mm->hiwater_vm in the same way, though it's much less of an issue.  Demand
that whoever collects these hiwater statistics do the work of taking the
maximum with rss or total_vm.

And there has been no collector of these hiwater statistics in the tree.  The
new convention needs an example, so match Frank's usage by adding a VmPeak
line above VmSize to /proc/<pid>/status, and also a VmHWM line above VmRSS
(High-Water-Mark or High-Water-Memory).

There was a particular anomaly during mremap move, that hiwater_vm might be
captured too high.  A fleeting such anomaly remains, but it's quickly
corrected now, whereas before it would stick.

What locking?  None: if the app is racy then these statistics will be racy,
it's not worth any overhead to make them exact.  But whenever it suits,
hiwater_vm is updated under exclusive mmap_sem, and hiwater_rss under
page_table_lock (for now) or with preemption disabled (later on): without
going to any trouble, minimize the time between reading current values and
updating, to minimize those occasions when a racing thread bumps a count up
and back down in between.

b5810039a5 [PATCH] core remove PageReserved
Remove PageReserved() calls from core code by tightening VM_RESERVED
handling in mm/ to cover PageReserved functionality.

PageReserved special casing is removed from get_page and put_page.

All setting and clearing of PageReserved is retained, and it is now flagged
in the page_alloc checks to help ensure we don't introduce any refcount
based freeing of Reserved pages.

MAP_PRIVATE, PROT_WRITE of VM_RESERVED regions is tentatively being
deprecated.  We never completely handled it correctly anyway, and is be
reintroduced in future if required (Hugh has a proof of concept).

Once PageReserved() calls are removed from kernel/power/swsusp.c, and all
arch/ and driver code, the Set and Clear calls, and the PG_reserved bit can
be trivially removed.

Last real user of PageReserved is swsusp, which uses PageReserved to
determine whether a struct page points to valid memory or not.  This still
needs to be addressed (a generic page_is_ram() should work).

A last caveat: the ZERO_PAGE is now refcounted and managed with rmap (and
thus mapcounted and count towards shared rss).  These writes to the struct
page could cause excessive cacheline bouncing on big systems.  There are a
number of ways this could be addressed if it is an issue.

4294621f41 [PATCH] mm: rss = file_rss + anon_rss
I was lazy when we added anon_rss, and chose to change as few places as
possible.  So currently each anonymous page has to be counted twice, in rss
and in anon_rss.  Which won't be so good if those are atomic counts in some
configurations.

Change that around: keep file_rss and anon_rss separately, and add them
together (with get_mm_rss macro) when the total is needed - reading two
atomics is much cheaper than updating two atomics.  And update anon_rss
upfront, typically in memory.c, not tucked away in page_add_anon_rmap.

27496a8c67 [PATCH] gfp_t: fs/*
- ->releasepage() annotated (s/int/gfp_t), instances updated
 - missing gfp_t in fs/* added
 - fixed misannotation from the original sweep caught by bitwise checks:
   XFS used __nocast both for gfp_t and for flags used by XFS allocator.
   The latter left with unsigned int __nocast; we might want to add a
   different type for those but for now let's leave them alone.  That,
   BTW, is a case when __nocast use had been actively confusing - it had
   been used in the same code for two different and similar types, with
   no way to catch misuses.  Switch of gfp_t to bitwise had caught that
   immediately...

One tricky bit is left alone to be dealt with later - mapping->flags is
a mix of gfp_t and error indications.  Left alone for now.

af4ca457ea [PATCH] gfp_t: infrastructure
Beginning of gfp_t annotations:

 - -Wbitwise added to CHECKFLAGS
 - old __bitwise renamed to __bitwise__
 - __bitwise defined to either __bitwise__ or nothing, depending on
   __CHECK_ENDIAN__ being defined
 - gfp_t switched from __nocast to __bitwise__
 - force cast to gfp_t added to __GFP_... constants
 - new helper - gfp_zone(); extracts zone bits out of gfp_t value and casts
   the result to int

Chen, Kenneth W
20e5c81fcf [patch] remove gendisk->stamp_idle field
struct gendisk has these two fields: stamp, stamp_idle.  Update to
stamp_idle is always in sync with stamp and they are always the same.
Therefore, it does not add any value in having two fields tracking
same timestamp.  Suggest to remove it.

Also, we should only update gendisk stats with non-zero value.
Advantage is that we don't have to needlessly calculate memory address,
and then add zero to the content.

0c70b50150 NFS: nfs_lookup doesn't need to revalidate the parent directory's inode
nfs_lookup() used to consult a lookup cache before trying an actual wire
 lookup operation.  The lookup cache would be invalid, of course, if the
 parent directory's mtime had changed, so nfs_lookup performed an inode
 revalidation on the parent.

 Since nfs_lookup() doesn't use a cache anymore, the revalidation is no
 longer necessary.  There are cases where it will generate a lot of
 unnecessary GETATTR traffic.

 See http://bugzilla.linux-nfs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9

 Test-plan:
 Use lndir and "rm -rf" and watch for excess GETATTR traffic or application
 level errors.

decf491f30 NFS: Don't let nfs_end_data_update() clobber attribute update information
Since we almost always call nfs_end_data_update() after we called
 nfs_refresh_inode(), we now end up marking the inode metadata
 as needing revalidation immediately after having updated it.

 This patch rearranges things so that we mark the inode as needing
 revalidation _before_ we call nfs_refresh_inode() on those operations
 that need it.
