The DCCP protocol tries to allocate some large hash tables during initialisation using the largest size possible. This can be larger than what the page allocator can provide so it prints a warning. However, the caller is able to handle the situation so this patch suppresses the warning. Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Acked-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: "David S.

The page allocator warns once when an order >= MAX_ORDER is specified. This is to catch callers of the allocator that are always falling back to their worst-case when it was not expected. However, there are cases where the caller is behaving correctly but cannot suppress the warning. This patch allows the warning to be suppressed by the callers by specifying __GFP_NOWARN.

After commit ec64f515 ("cgroup: fix frequent -EBUSY at rmdir"), cgroup's rmdir (especially against memcg) doesn't return -EBUSY by temporary ref counts. That commit expects all refs after pre_destroy() is temporary but...it wasn't. Then, rmdir can wait permanently. This patch tries to fix that and change followings. - set CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR flag before pre_destroy(). - clear CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR flag when the subsys finds racy case. if there are sleeping ones, wakes them up. - rmdir() sleeps only when CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR flag is set.

Under certain circumstances msleep(1) within the loop, which waits for the EEPROM to be finished, might take longer than the timeout. On the next loop the status register might now return to be ready and therefore the loop finishes. The following check now tests if a timeout occurred and if so returns an error although the device reported it was ready. This fix replaces testing the occurrence of the timeout by testing the "not ready" bit in the status register.

The bug was introduced by commit cc31edce ("cgroups: convert tasks file to use a seq_file with shared pid array"). We cache a pid array for all threads that are opening the same "tasks" file, but the pids in the array are always from the namespace of the last process that opened the file, so all other threads will read pids from that namespace instead of their own namespaces. To fix it, we maintain a list of pid arrays, which is keyed by pid_ns. The list will be of length 1 at most time.

Roland Dreier authored
The generic atomic64_t implementation in lib/ did not export the functions it defined, which means that modules that use atomic64_t would not link on platforms (such as 32-bit powerpc). For example, trying to build a kernel with CONFIG_NET_RDS on such a platform would fail with: ERROR: "atomic64_read" [net/rds/rds.ko] undefined! ERROR: "atomic64_set" [net/rds/rds.ko] undefined! Fix this by exporting the atomic64_t functions to modules. (I export the entire API even if it's not all currently used by in-tree modules to avoid having to continue fixing this in dribs and drabs) Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

As reported in Red Hat bz #509671, i_blocks for files on hugetlbfs get accounting wrong when doing something like: $ > foo $ date > foo date: write error: Invalid argument $ /usr/bin/stat foo File: `foo' Size: 0 Blocks: 18446744073709547520 IO Block: 2097152 regular ... This is because hugetlb_unreserve_pages() is unconditionally removing blocks_per_huge_page(h) on each call rather than using the freed amount. If there were 0 blocks, it goes negative, resulting in the above. This is a regression from commit a5516438 ("hugetlb: modular state for hugetlb page size") which did: - inode->i_blocks -= BLOCKS_PER_HUGEPAGE * freed; + inode->i_blocks -= blocks_per_huge_page(h); so just put back the freed multiplier, and it's all happy again.

rtc-cmos has two drivers, one PNP and one platform. When PNP has not succeeded probing, platform is registered. However, it tries to unregister both drivers unconditionally, instead of only unregistering those that were successfully registered. This causes runtime warnings to be emitted from the driver core code. Fix this with a boolean variable for each driver indicating whether registering was successful.

When data is read through DMA, the last element must be read separately through the RX register. It cannot be transferred by the DMA. For further details see e.g. OMAP35x TRM (table 19-16). Without the fix the driver causes extra clocks to be clocked to the bus after DMA RX operations. This can cause interesting behaviour with some devices.

Fix a post-2.6.31 regression which was introduced by 2ff05b2b ("oom: move oom_adj value from task_struct to mm_struct"). After moving the oom_adj value from the task struct to the mm_struct, the oom_adj value was no longer properly inherited by child processes. Copying over the oom_adj value at fork time fixes that bug.

If a task is oom killed and still cannot find memory when trying with no watermarks, it's better to fail the allocation attempt than to loop endlessly. Direct reclaim has already failed and the oom killer will be a no-op since current has yet to die, so there is no other alternative for allocations that are not __GFP_NOFAIL.

Fix a post-2.6.24 performace regression caused by 3dfa5721 ("page-allocator: preserve PFN ordering when __GFP_COLD is set"). Narayanan reports "The regression is around 15%. There is no disk controller as our setup is based on Samsung OneNAND used as a memory mapped device on a OMAP2430 based board." The page allocator tries to preserve contiguous PFN ordering when returning pages such that repeated callers to the allocator have a strong chance of getting physically contiguous pages, particularly when external fragmentation is low. However, of the bulk of the allocations have __GFP_COLD set as they are due to aio_read() for example, then the PFNs are in reverse PFN order. This can cause performance degration when used with IO controllers that could have merged the requests. This patch attempts to preserve the contiguous ordering of PFNs for users of __GFP_COLD.

OGAWA Hirofumi authored
We really don't want to mark the pty as a low-latency device, because as Alan points out, the ->write method can be called from an IRQ (ppp?), and that means we can't use ->low_latency=1 as we take mutexes in the low_latency case. So rather than using low_latency to force the written data to be pushed to the ldisc handling at 'write()' time, just make the reader side (or the poll function) do the flush when it checks whether there is data to be had. This also fixes the problem with lost data in an emacs compile buffer (bugzilla 13815), and we can thus revert the low_latency pty hack (commit 3a542974: "pty: quickfix for the pty ENXIO timing problems").

For x86 this affected highmem pages only, since they were always kmapped cache-coherent, and this is fixed using kmap_atomic_prot(). For other architectures that may not modify the linear kernel map we resort to vmap() for now, since kmap_atomic_prot() generally uses the linear kernel map for lowmem pages. This of course comes with a performance impact and should be optimized when possible. Signed-off-by: Thomas Hellstrom <thellstrom@vmware.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>
