llist_add(new, head) can simply use llist_add_batch(new, new, head), no need to duplicate the code. This obviously uninlines llist_add() and to me this is a win. But we can make llist_add_batch() inline if this is desirable, in this case gcc can notice that new_first == new_last if the caller is llist_add().

1. This is mostly theoretical, but llist_add*() need ACCESS_ONCE(). Otherwise it is not guaranteed that the first cmpxchg() uses the same value for old_entry and new_last->next. 2. These helpers cache the result of cmpxchg() and read the initial value of head->first before the main loop. I do not think this makes sense. In the likely case cmpxchg() succeeds, otherwise it doesn't hurt to reload head->first. I think it would be better to simplify the code and simply read ->first before cmpxchg().

zbud is an special purpose allocator for storing compressed pages. It is designed to store up to two compressed pages per physical page. While this design limits storage density, it has simple and deterministic reclaim properties that make it preferable to a higher density approach when reclaim will be used. zbud works by storing compressed pages, or "zpages", together in pairs in a single memory page called a "zbud page". The first buddy is "left justifed" at the beginning of the zbud page, and the last buddy is "right justified" at the end of the zbud page. The benefit is that if either buddy is freed, the freed buddy space, coalesced with whatever slack space that existed between the buddies, results in the largest possible free region within the zbud page. zbud also provides an attractive lower bound on density. The ratio of zpages to zbud pages can not be less than 1. This ensures that zbud can never "do harm" by using more pages to store zpages than the uncompressed zpages would have used on their own. This implementation is a rewrite of the zbud allocator internally used by zcache in the driver/staging tree. The rewrite was necessary to remove some of the zcache specific elements that were ingrained throughout and provide a generic allocation interface that can later be used by zsmalloc and others. This patch adds zbud to mm/ for later use by zswap.

This patch removes "io_lock" and "map_lock" in struct mapped_device and "holders" in struct dm_table and replaces these mechanisms with sleepable-rcu. Previously, the code would call "dm_get_live_table" and "dm_table_put" to get and release table. Now, the code is changed to call "dm_get_live_table" and "dm_put_live_table". dm_get_live_table locks sleepable-rcu and dm_put_live_table unlocks it. dm_get_live_table_fast/dm_put_live_table_fast can be used instead of dm_get_live_table/dm_put_live_table. These *_fast functions use non-sleepable RCU, so the caller must not block between them. If the code changes active or inactive dm table, it must call dm_sync_table before destroying the old table.

This patchset is for supporting LZ4 compression and the crypto API using it. As shown below, the size of data is a little bit bigger but compressing speed is faster under the enabled unaligned memory access. We can use lz4 de/compression through crypto API as well. Also, It will be useful for another potential user of lz4 compression. lz4 Compression Benchmark: Compiler: ARM gcc 4.6.4 ARMv7, 1 GHz based board Kernel: linux 3.4 Uncompressed data Size: 101 MB Compressed Size compression Speed LZO 72.1MB 32.1MB/s, 33.0MB/s(UA) LZ4 75.1MB 30.4MB/s, 35.9MB/s(UA) LZ4HC 59.8MB 2.4MB/s, 2.5MB/s(UA) - UA: Unaligned memory Access support - Latest patch set for LZO applied This patch: Add support for LZ4 compression in the Linux Kernel. LZ4 Compression APIs for kernel are based on LZ4 implementation by Yann Collet and were changed for kernel coding style. LZ4 homepage : http://fastcompression.blogspot.com/p/lz4.html LZ4 source repository : http://code.google.com/p/lz4/ svn revision : r90 Two APIs are added: lz4_compress() support basic lz4 compression whereas lz4hc_compress() support high compression or CPU performance get lower but compression ratio get higher. Also, we require the pre-allocated working memory with the defined size and destination buffer must be allocated with the size of lz4_compressbound.

Add support for LZ4 decompression in the Linux Kernel. LZ4 Decompression APIs for kernel are based on LZ4 implementation by Yann Collet. Benchmark Results(PATCH v3) Compiler: Linaro ARM gcc 4.6.2 1. ARMv7, 1.5GHz based board Kernel: linux 3.4 Uncompressed Kernel Size: 14MB Compressed Size Decompression Speed LZO 6.7MB 20.1MB/s, 25.2MB/s(UA) LZ4 7.3MB 29.1MB/s, 45.6MB/s(UA) 2. ARMv7, 1.7GHz based board Kernel: linux 3.7 Uncompressed Kernel Size: 14MB Compressed Size Decompression Speed LZO 6.0MB 34.1MB/s, 52.2MB/s(UA) LZ4 6.5MB 86.7MB/s - UA: Unaligned memory Access support - Latest patch set for LZO applied This patch set is for adding support for LZ4-compressed Kernel. LZ4 is a very fast lossless compression algorithm and it also features an extremely fast decoder [1]. But we have five of decompressors already and one question which does arise, however, is that of where do we stop adding new ones? This issue had been discussed and came to the conclusion [2]. Russell King said that we should have: - one decompressor which is the fastest - one decompressor for the highest compression ratio - one popular decompressor (eg conventional gzip) If we have a replacement one for one of these, then it should do exactly that: replace it. The benchmark shows that an 8% increase in image size vs a 66% increase in decompression speed compared to LZO(which has been known as the fastest decompressor in the Kernel). Therefore the "fast but may not be small" compression title has clearly been taken by LZ4 [3].

sem_otime contains the time of the last semaphore operation that completed successfully. Every operation updates this value, thus access from multiple cpus can cause thrashing. Therefore the patch replaces the variable with a per-semaphore variable. The per-array sem_otime is only calculated when required. No performance improvement on a single-socket i3 - only important for larger systems.

Introduce separate queues for operations that do not modify the semaphore values. Advantages: - Simpler logic in check_restart(). - Faster update_queue(): Right now, all wait-for-zero operations are always tested, even if the semaphore value is not 0. - wait-for-zero gets again priority, as in linux <=3.0.9 Signed-off-by: NManfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <davidlohr.bueso@hp.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This reverts commit bf26c018 ("Prepare to fix racy accesses on task breakpoints"). The patch was fine but we can no longer race with SIGKILL after commit 9899d11f ("ptrace: ensure arch_ptrace/ptrace_request can never race with SIGKILL"), the __TASK_TRACED tracee can't be woken up and ->ptrace_bps[] can't go away. Now that ptrace_get_breakpoints/ptrace_put_breakpoints have no callers, we can kill them and remove task->ptrace_bp_refcnt.

This patch, originally from Android kernel, adds vfat ioctl command FAT_IOCTL_GET_VOLUME_ID, with this command we can get the vfat volume ID using following code: ioctl(fd, FAT_IOCTL_GET_VOLUME_ID, &volume_ID) This patch is a modified version of the patch by Mike Lockwood, with changes from Dmitry Pervushin, who noticed the original patch makes some volume IDs abiguous with error returns: for example, if volume id is 0xFFFFFDAD, that matches -ENOIOCTLCMD, we get "FFFFFFFF" from the user space. So add a parameter to ioctl to get the correct volume ID. Android uses vfat volume ID to identify different sd card, when a new sd card is inserted to device, android can scan the media on it and pop up new contents.

VM_UNLIST was used to indicate that the vm_struct is not listed in vmlist. But after commit 4341fa45 ("mm, vmalloc: remove list management of vmlist after initializing vmalloc"), the meaning of this flag changed. It now means the vm_struct is not fully initialized. So renaming it to VM_UNINITIALIZED seems more reasonable. Also change clear_vm_unlist to clear_vm_uninitialized_flag.
