allocation and freeing of persistent huge pages on a NUMA platform. Please consider for merging into mmotm. This series uses two mechanisms to constrain the nodes from which persistent huge pages are allocated: 1) the task NUMA mempolicy of the task modifying a new sysctl "nr_hugepages_mempolicy", based on a suggestion by Mel Gorman; and 2) a subset of the hugepages hstate sysfs attributes have been added [in V4] to each node system device under: /sys/devices/node/node[0-9]*/hugepages The per node attibutes allow direct assignment of a huge page count on a specific node, regardless of the task's mempolicy or cpuset constraints. This patch: NODEMASK_ALLOC(x, m) assumes x is a type of struct, which is unnecessary. It's perfectly reasonable to use this macro to allocate a nodemask_t, which is anonymous, either dynamically or on the stack depending on NODES_SHIFT.

is unpluged to improve throughput on especially RAID environment. The normal case is, if page N become uptodate at time T(N), then T(N) <= T(N+1) holds. With RAID (and NFS to some degree), there is no strict ordering, the data arrival time depends on runtime status of individual disks, which breaks that formula. So in do_generic_file_read(), just after submitting the async readahead IO request, the current page may well be uptodate, so the page won't be locked, and the block device won't be implicitly unplugged: if (PageReadahead(page)) page_cache_async_readahead() if (!PageUptodate(page)) goto page_not_up_to_date; //... page_not_up_to_date: lock_page_killable(page); Therefore explicit unplugging can help.

and gfp mask, current's cpuset and memory controller, call trace, and VM state information is currently only shown when the oom killer has selected a task to kill. This information is omitted, however, when the oom killer panics either because of panic_on_oom sysctl settings or when no killable task was found. It is still relevant to know crucial pieces of information such as the allocation order and VM state when diagnosing such issues, especially at boot. This patch displays the oom killer header whenever it panics so that bug reports can include pertinent information to debug the issue, if possible.

the cache is re-populated while waiting for i_mutex, it may find that a d_lookup() subsequently succeeds (see the "Uhhuh! Nasty case" comment). Previously, real_lookup() would drop i_mutex and do_revalidate() again. If revalidate failed _again_, however, it would give up with -ENOENT. The problem here that network file systems may be invalidating dentries via server callbacks, e.g. due to concurrent access from another client, and -ENOENT is frequently the wrong answer. This problem has been seen with both Lustre and Ceph. It seems possible to hit this case with NFS as well if the cache lifetime is very short. Instead, we should do_revalidate() while i_mutex is still held. If revalidation fails, we can move on to a ->lookup() and ensure a correct result without worrying about any subsequent races. Note that do_revalidate() is called with i_mutex held elsewhere. For example, do_filp_open(), lookup_create(), do_unlinkat(), do_rmdir(), and possibly others all take the directory i_mutex, and then -> lookup_hash -> __lookup_hash -> cached_lookup -> do_revalidate so this does not introduce any new locking rules for d_revalidate implementations. Yes, the goto is ugly. A cleanup patch follows.

Fixes a problem reported by Jorge Boncompte who is seeing corruption trying to snapshot a minix filesystem image. Some filesystems modify their metadata via a path other than the bdev buffer cache (eg. they may use a private linear mapping for their metadata, or implement directories in pagecache, etc). Also, file data modifications usually go to the bdev via their own mappings. These updates are not coherent with buffercache IO (eg. via /dev/bdev) and never have been. However there could be a reasonable expectation that after a mount -oremount,ro operation then the buffercache should subsequently be coherent with previous filesystem modifications. So invalidate the bdev mappings on a remount,ro operation to provide a coherency point. The problem was exposed when we switched the old rd to brd because old rd didn't really function like a normal block device and updates to rd via mappings other than the buffercache would still end up going into its buffercache. But the same problem has always affected other "normal" block devices, including loop.

Also, it does not get put into the dcache hash if DCACHE_UNHASHED is clear; that depends on the filesystem calling d_add or d_rehash. So delete the misleading comments and needless code.

The issue seems to be that sys_renameat() does lock_rename() then calls into the filesystem; if the filesystem is ecryptfs, then ecryptfs_rename() again does lock_rename() on the lower filesystem, and lockdep can't tell that the two s_vfs_rename_mutexes are different. It seems an annotation like the following is sufficient to fix this (it does get rid of the lockdep trace in my simple tests); however I would like to make sure I'm not misunderstanding the locking, hence the CC list...

1) fs/compat_ioctl.c has COMPATIBLE_IOCTL(RAW_SETBIND) followed by HANDLE_IOCTL(RAW_SETBIND, raw_ioctl). The latter is ignored. 2) on amd64 (and itanic) the damn thing is broken - we have int + u64 + u64 and layouts on i386 and amd64 are _not_ the same. raw_ioctl() would work there, but it's never called due to (1). As it is, i386 /sbin/raw definitely doesn't work on amd64 boxen. 3) switching to raw_ioctl() as is would *not* work on e.g. sparc64 and ppc64, which would be rather sad, seeing that normal userland there is 32bit. The thing is, slapping __packed on the struct in question does not DTRT - it eliminates *all* padding. The real solution is to use compat_u64. 4) of course, all that stuff has no business being outside of raw.c in the first place - there should be ->compat_ioctl() for /dev/rawctl instead of messing with compat_ioctl.c.

FS_RENAME_DOES_D_MOVE. If new_dentry has a target inode attached, it unhashes the new_dentry prior to the rename() iop and rehashes it after, but doesn't account for the possibility that rename() may have swapped {old,new}_dentry. For FS_RENAME_DOES_D_MOVE filesystems, it rehashes new_dentry (now the old renamed-from name, which d_move() expected to go away), such that a subsequent lookup will find it. This was caught by the recently posted POSIX fstest suite, rename/10.t test 62 (and others) on ceph. The bug was introduced by: commit 349457cc "[PATCH] Allow file systems to manually d_move() inside of ->rename()" Fix by not rehashing the new dentry. Rehashing used to be needed by d_move() but isn't anymore.

The device appears first as CD-only 05c6:2100 device and must be switched to 1e0e:ce16 mode either by using "eject CD" or usb_modeswitch.
