974802eaa1 perf_counter: Add forward/backward attribute ABI compatibility
Provide for means of extending the perf_counter_attr in a 'natural' way.

We allow growing the structure by appending fields at the end by specifying
the full structure size inside it.

When a new kernel sees a smaller (old) structure, it will 0 pad the tail.
When an old kernel sees a larger (new) structure, it will verify the tail
consists of 0s, otherwise fail.

If we fail due to a size-mismatch, we return -E2BIG and write the kernel's
native attribe size back into the provided structure.

Furthermore, add some attribute verification, so that we'll fail counter
creation when unknown bits are present (PERF_SAMPLE, PERF_FORMAT, or in
the __reserved fields).

(This ABI detail is introduced while keeping the existing syscall ABI.)

ad6561dffa module: trim exception table on init free.
It's theoretically possible that there are exception table entries
which point into the (freed) init text of modules.  These could cause
future problems if other modules get loaded into that memory and cause
an exception as we'd see the wrong fixup.  The only case I know of is
kvm-intel.ko (when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n).

Amerigo fixed this long-standing FIXME in the x86 version, but this
patch is more general.

This implements trim_init_extable(); most archs are simple since they
use the standard lib/extable.c sort code.  Alpha and IA64 use relative
addresses in their fixups, so thier trimming is a slight variation.

Sparc32 is unique; it doesn't seem to define ARCH_HAS_SORT_EXTABLE,
yet it defines its own sort_extable() which overrides the one in lib.
It doesn't sort, so we have to mark deleted entries instead of
actually trimming them.

fddd520122 module_param: allow 'bool' module_params to be bool, not just int.
Impact: API cleanup

For historical reasons, 'bool' parameters must be an int, not a bool.
But there are around 600 users, so a conversion seems like useless churn.

So we use __same_type() to distinguish, and handle both cases.

Impact: new API

__builtin_types_compatible_p() is a little awkward to use: it takes two

ca371c0d7e memcg: fix page_cgroup fatal error in FLATMEM
Now, SLAB is configured in very early stage and it can be used in
init routine now.

But replacing alloc_bootmem() in FLAT/DISCONTIGMEM's page_cgroup()
initialization breaks the allocation, now.
(Works well in SPARSEMEM case...it supports MEMORY_HOTPLUG and
 size of page_cgroup is in reasonable size (< 1 << MAX_ORDER.)

This patch revive FLATMEM+memory cgroup by using alloc_bootmem.

In future,
We stop to support FLATMEM (if no users) or rewrite codes for flatmem
completely.But this will adds more messy codes and overheads.

9fd5746fd3 fs: Remove i_cindex from struct inode
The only user of the i_cindex element in the inode structure is used
is by the firewire drivers.  As part of an attempt to slim down the
inode structure to save memory --- since a typical Linux system will
have hundreds of thousands if not millions of inodes cached, a
reduction in the size inode has high leverage.

The firewire driver does not need i_cindex in any fast path, so it's
simple enough to calculate when it is needed, instead of wasting space
in the inode structure.

850b201b08 quota: cleanup dquota sync functions (version 4)
Currently the VFS calls vfs_dq_sync to sync out disk quotas for a given
superblock.  This is a small wrapper around sync_dquots which for the
case of a non-NULL superblock is a small wrapper around quota_sync_sb.

Just make quota_sync_sb global (rename it to sync_quota_sb) and call it
directly.  Also call it directly for those cases in quota.c that have a
superblock and leave sync_dquots purely an iterator over sync_quota_sb and
remove it's superblock argument.

To make this nicer move the check for the lack of a quota_sync method
from the callers into sync_quota_sb.

5cee5815d1 vfs: Make sys_sync() use fsync_super() (version 4)
It is unnecessarily fragile to have two places (fsync_super() and do_sync())
doing data integrity sync of the filesystem. Alter __fsync_super() to
accommodate needs of both callers and use it. So after this patch
__fsync_super() is the only place where we gather all the calls needed to
properly send all data on a filesystem to disk.

Nice bonus is that we get a complete livelock avoidance and write_supers()
is now only used for periodic writeback of superblocks.

sync_blockdevs() introduced a couple of patches ago is gone now.

96029c4e09 fs: introduce mnt_clone_write
This patch speeds up lmbench lat_mmap test by about another 2% after the
first patch.

Before:
 avg = 462.286
 std = 5.46106

After:
 avg = 453.12
 std = 9.58257

(50 runs of each, stddev gives a reasonable confidence)

It does this by introducing mnt_clone_write, which avoids some heavyweight
operations of mnt_want_write if called on a vfsmount which we know already
has a write count; and mnt_want_write_file, which can call mnt_clone_write
if the file is open for write.

After these two patches, mnt_want_write and mnt_drop_write go from 7% on
the profile down to 1.3% (including mnt_clone_write).

[AV: mnt_want_write_file() should take file alone and derive mnt from it;
not only all callers have that form, but that's the only mnt about which
we know that it's already held for write if file is opened for write]

d3ef3d7351 fs: mnt_want_write speedup
This patch speeds up lmbench lat_mmap test by about 8%. lat_mmap is set up
basically to mmap a 64MB file on tmpfs, fault in its pages, then unmap it.
A microbenchmark yes, but it exercises some important paths in the mm.

Before:
 avg = 501.9
 std = 14.7773

After:
 avg = 462.286
 std = 5.46106

(50 runs of each, stddev gives a reasonable confidence, but there is quite
a bit of variation there still)

It does this by removing the complex per-cpu locking and counter-cache and
replaces it with a percpu counter in struct vfsmount. This makes the code
much simpler, and avoids spinlocks (although the msync is still pretty
costly, unfortunately). It results in about 900 bytes smaller code too. It
does increase the size of a vfsmount, however.

It should also give a speedup on large systems if CPUs are frequently operating
on different mounts (because the existing scheme has to operate on an atomic in
the struct vfsmount when switching between mounts). But I'm most interested in
the single threaded path performance for the moment.

[AV: minor cleanup]

eed417ddd5 asm-generic: add a generic uaccess.h
Based on discussions with Michal Simek and code
from m68knommu and h8300, this version of uaccess.h
should be usable by most architectures, by overriding
some parts of it.

Simple NOMMU architectures can use it out of
the box, but a minimal __access_ok() should be
added there as well.

5c01b46bb6 asm-generic: add generic NOMMU versions of some headers
Memory management in generic is highly architecture specific,
but on NOMMU architectures, it is mostly trivial, so just
add a default implementation in asm-generic that applies
to all NOMMU architectures.

The two files cache.h and cacheflush.h can possibly also
be used by architectures that have an MMU but never require
flushing the cache or have cache lines larger than 32 bytes.

Evidently, set_rtc_time is supposed to be overridable
by architectures that define their own version, but
unfortunately, get_rtc_ss would in that case still

This makes get_rtc_ss call the real set_rtc_time

The change should fix the "Extended RTC operation"
on Alpha, which uses the incorrect get_rtc_ss
call. It also allows PowerPC to use the asm-generic/rtc.h
file in the future.

e64a1617ec asm-generic: add a generic unistd.h
A new architecture should only define a minimal set of system
calls while still providing the full functionality. This version
of unistd.h has gone through intensive review to make sure that
by default it only enables syscalls that do not already have
a more featureful replacement.

It is modeled after the x86-64 version of unistd.h, which unifies
the syscall number definition and the actual system call table
in a single file, in order to keep them synchronized much more
easily.

This first version still keeps legacy system call definitions
around, guarded by various #ifdefs, and with numbers larger
than 1024. The idea behind this is to make it easier for
new architectures to transition from a full list to the reduced
set. In particular, the new microblaze architecture that should
migrate to using the generic ABI headers can at least use an
existing uClibc source tree without major rewrites during the
conversion.

into any new one, slightly modified and then remain untouched until
the end of time in the name of ABI stability.

To make it easier for future architectures, provide a sane generic

identical code, I used the most common version. In cases like
stat.h that are more or less broken everywhere, I provide a
version that is meant to be ideal for new architectures.

c31ae4bb4a asm-generic: introduce asm/bitsperlong.h
This provides a reliable way for asm-generic/types.h and other
files to find out if it is running on a 32 or 64 bit platform.

We cannot use CONFIG_64BIT for this in headers that are included
from user space because CONFIG symbols are not available there.
We also cannot do it inside of asm/types.h because some headers
need the word size but cannot include types.h.

The solution is to introduce a new header <asm/bitsperlong.h>
that defines both __BITS_PER_LONG for user space and
BITS_PER_LONG for usage in the kernel. The asm-generic
version falls back to 32 bit unless the architecture overrides
it, which I did for all 64 bit platforms.

ff52cc2158 fsnotify: move events should indicate the event was on a child
fsnotify tells its listeners explicitly when an event happened on the given
inode verses on the child of the given inode.  (see __fsnotify_parent)
However, the semantics of fsnotify_move() are such that we deliver events
directly to the two parent directories in question (old_dir and new_dir)
directly without using the __fsnotify_parent() call.  fsnotify should be
adding FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD for the notifications to these parents.

3be25f49b9 fsnotify: add marks to inodes so groups can interpret how to handle those inodes
This patch creates a way for fsnotify groups to attach marks to inodes.
These marks have little meaning to the generic fsnotify infrastructure
and thus their meaning should be interpreted by the group that attached
them to the inode's list.

dnotify and inotify  will make use of these markings to indicate which
inodes are of interest to their respective groups.  But this implementation
has the useful property that in the future other listeners could actually
use the marks for the exact opposite reason, aka to indicate which inodes
it had NO interest in.

90586523eb fsnotify: unified filesystem notification backend
fsnotify is a backend for filesystem notification.  fsnotify does
not provide any userspace interface but does provide the basis
needed for other notification schemes such as dnotify.  fsnotify
can be extended to be the backend for inotify or the upcoming
fanotify.  fsnotify provides a mechanism for "groups" to register for
some set of filesystem events and to then deliver those events to
those groups for processing.

fsnotify has a number of benefits, the first being actually shrinking the size
of an inode.  Before fsnotify to support both dnotify and inotify an inode had

        unsigned long           i_dnotify_mask; /* Directory notify events */
        struct dnotify_struct   *i_dnotify; /* for directory notifications */
        struct list_head        inotify_watches; /* watches on this inode */
        struct mutex            inotify_mutex;  /* protects the watches list

But with fsnotify this same functionallity (and more) is done with just

        __u32                   i_fsnotify_mask; /* all events for this inode */
        struct hlist_head       i_fsnotify_mark_entries; /* marks on this inode */

That's right, inotify, dnotify, and fanotify all in 64 bits.  We used that
much space just in inotify_watches alone, before this patch set.

fsnotify object lifetime and locking is MUCH better than what we have today.
inotify locking is incredibly complex.  See 8f7b0ba1c8 as an example of
what's been busted since inception.  inotify needs to know internal semantics
of superblock destruction and unmounting to function.  The inode pinning and
vfs contortions are horrible.

no fsnotify implementers do allocation under locks.  This means things like
f04b30de3 which (due to an overabundance of caution) changes GFP_KERNEL to
GFP_NOFS can be reverted.  There are no longer any allocation rules when using
or implementing your own fsnotify listener.

fsnotify paves the way for fanotify.  In brief fanotify is a notification
mechanism that delivers the lisener both an 'event' and an open file descriptor
to the object in question.  This means that fanotify is pathname agnostic.
Some on lkml may not care for the original companies or users that pushed for
TALPA, but fanotify was designed with flexibility and input for other users in
mind.  The readahead group expressed interest in fanotify as it could be used
to profile disk access on boot without breaking the audit system.  The desktop
search groups have also expressed interest in fanotify as it solves a number
of the race conditions and problems present with managing inotify when more
than a limited number of specific files are of interest.  fanotify can provide
for a userspace access control system which makes it a clean interface for AV
vendors to hook without trying to do binary patching on the syscall table,
LSM, and everywhere else they do their things today.  With this patch series
fanotify can be implemented in less than 1200 lines of easy to review code.
Almost all of which is the socket based user interface.

This patch series builds fsnotify to the point that it can implement
dnotify and inotify_user.  Patches exist and will be sent soon after
acceptance to finish the in kernel inotify conversion (audit) and implement
fanotify.

38c7fed2f5 x86: remove some alloc_bootmem_cpumask_var calling
Now that we set up the slab allocator earlier, we can get rid of some
alloc_bootmem_cpumask_var() calls in boot code.

3c7b4e6b8b kmemleak: Add the base support
This patch adds the base support for the kernel memory leak
detector. It traces the memory allocation/freeing in a way similar to
the Boehm's conservative garbage collector, the difference being that
the unreferenced objects are not freed but only shown in
/sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak. Enabling this feature introduces an
overhead to memory allocations.

c65c9bc3ef tty: rewrite the ldisc locking
There are several pretty much unfixable races in the old ldisc code, especially
with respect to pty behaviour and also to hangup. It's easier to rewrite the
code than simply try and patch it up.

This patch
- splits the ldisc from the tty (so we will be able to refcount it more cleanly
  later)
- introduces a mutex lock for ldisc changing on an active device
- fixes the complete mess that hangup caused
- implements hopefully correct setldisc/close/hangup locking

There are still some problems around pty pairs that have always been there but
at least it is now possible to understand the code and fix further problems.

This fixes the following known bugs
- hang up can leak ldisc references
- hang up may not call open/close on ldisc in a matched way
- pty/tty pairs can deadlock during an ldisc change
- reading the ldisc proc files can cause every ldisc to be loaded

and probably a few other of the mysterious ldisc race reports.

I'm sure it also adds the odd new one.

38db89799b tty: throttling race fix
The tty throttling code can race due to the lock drops. It takes very high
loads but this has been observed and verified by Rob Duncan.

The basic problem is that on an SMP box we can go

	CPU #1				CPU #2
	need to throttle ?
	suppose we should		buffer space cleared
					are we throttled
					yes ? - unthrottle
	call throttle method

This changeet take the termios lock to protect against this. The termios
lock isn't the initial obvious candidate but many implementations of throttle
methods already need to poke around their own termios structures (and nobody
really locks them against a racing change of flow control).

This does mean that anyone who is setting tty->low_latency = 1 and then
calling tty_flip_buffer_push from their unthrottle method is going to end up
collapsing in a pile of locks. However we've removed all the known bogus
users of low_latency = 1 and such use isn't safe anyway for other reasons so
catching it would be an improvement.

70beaed22c serial: refactor ASYNC_ flags
Define ASYNCB_* flags which are bit numbers of the ASYNC_* flags.

Tested with:
#include "PATH_TO_KERNEL/include/linux/serial.h"
static struct {
        unsigned int new, old;
} as[] = {
        { ASYNC_HUP_NOTIFY, 0x0001 },
        { ASYNC_FOURPORT, 0x0002 },
...
	{ ASYNC_BOOT_ONLYMCA, 0x00400000 },
        { ASYNC_INTERNAL_FLAGS, 0xFFC00000 }
};
...
        for (a = 0; a < ARRAY_SIZE(as); a++)
                if (as[a].old != as[a].new)
                        printf("%.8x != %.8x\n", as[a].old, as[a].new);
