      [PATCH] make valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() take a pfn · 06c67bef
      由 Lennert Buytenhek 提交于 
      Newer ARMs have a 40 bit physical address space, but mapping physical
memory above 4G needs a special page table format which we (currently?) do
not use for userspace mappings, so what happens instead is that mapping an
address >= 4G will happily discard the upper bits and wrap.

There is a valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() arch hook where we could check for
>= 4G addresses and deny the mapping, but this hook takes an unsigned long
address:

	static inline int valid_mmap_phys_addr_range(unsigned long addr, size_t size);

And drivers/char/mem.c:mmap_mem() calls it like this:

	static int mmap_mem(struct file * file, struct vm_area_struct * vma)
	{
		size_t size = vma->vm_end - vma->vm_start;

		if (!valid_mmap_phys_addr_range(vma->vm_pgoff << PAGE_SHIFT, size))

So that's not much help either.

This patch makes the hook take a pfn instead of a phys address.

      [PATCH] tty: Remove include of screen_info.h from tty.h · 894673ee
      由 Jon Smirl 提交于 
      screen_info.h doesn't have anything to do with the tty layer and shouldn't be
included by tty.h.  This patches removes the include and modifies all users to
directly include screen_info.h.  struct screen_info is mainly used to
communicate with the console drivers in drivers/video/console.  Note that this
patch touches every arch and I have no way of testing it.  If there is a
mistake the worst thing that will happen is a compile error.

      [PATCH] Fix copying of pgdat array on each node for ia64 memory hotplug · dd8041f1
      由 Yasunori Goto 提交于 
      I found a bug in memory hot-add code for ia64.

IA64's code has copies of pgdat's array on each node to reduce memory
access over crossing node.  This array is used by NODE_DATA() macro.  When
new node is hot-added, this pgdat's array should be updated and copied on
new node too.

However, I used for_each_online_node() in scatter_node_data() to copy
it. This meant its array is not copied on new node.
Because initialization of structures for new node was halfway,
so online_node_map couldn't be set at this time.

To copy arrays on new node, I changed it to check value of pgdat_list[]
which is source array of copies.  I tested this patch with my Memory Hotadd
emulation on Tiger4.  This patch is for 2.6.17-git20.

      Allow to tie upper bits of syscall bitmap in audit rules to kernel-defined
sets of syscalls.  Infrastructure, a couple of classes (with 32bit counterparts
for biarch targets) and actual tie-in on i386, amd64 and ia64.

      [PATCH] zoned vm counters: basic ZVC (zoned vm counter) implementation · 2244b95a
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      Per zone counter infrastructure

The counters that we currently have for the VM are split per processor.  The
processor however has not much to do with the zone these pages belong to.  We
cannot tell f.e.  how many ZONE_DMA pages are dirty.

So we are blind to potentially inbalances in the usage of memory in various
zones.  F.e.  in a NUMA system we cannot tell how many pages are dirty on a
particular node.  If we knew then we could put measures into the VM to balance
the use of memory between different zones and different nodes in a NUMA
system.  For example it would be possible to limit the dirty pages per node so
that fast local memory is kept available even if a process is dirtying huge
amounts of pages.

Another example is zone reclaim.  We do not know how many unmapped pages exist
per zone.  So we just have to try to reclaim.  If it is not working then we
pause and try again later.  It would be better if we knew when it makes sense
to reclaim unmapped pages from a zone.  This patchset allows the determination
of the number of unmapped pages per zone.  We can remove the zone reclaim
interval with the counters introduced here.

Futhermore the ability to have various usage statistics available will allow
the development of new NUMA balancing algorithms that may be able to improve
the decision making in the scheduler of when to move a process to another node
and hopefully will also enable automatic page migration through a user space
program that can analyse the memory load distribution and then rebalance
memory use in order to increase performance.

The counter framework here implements differential counters for each processor
in struct zone.  The differential counters are consolidated when a threshold
is exceeded (like done in the current implementation for nr_pageache), when
slab reaping occurs or when a consolidation function is called.

Consolidation uses atomic operations and accumulates counters per zone in the
zone structure and also globally in the vm_stat array.  VM functions can
access the counts by simply indexing a global or zone specific array.

The arrangement of counters in an array also simplifies processing when output
has to be generated for /proc/*.

Counters can be updated by calling inc/dec_zone_page_state or
_inc/dec_zone_page_state analogous to *_page_state.  The second group of
functions can be called if it is known that interrupts are disabled.

Special optimized increment and decrement functions are provided.  These can
avoid certain checks and use increment or decrement instructions that an
architecture may provide.

We also add a new CONFIG_DMA_IS_NORMAL that signifies that an architecture can
do DMA to all memory and therefore ZONE_NORMAL will not be populated.  This is
only currently set for IA64 SGI SN2 and currently only affects
node_page_state().  In the best case node_page_state can be reduced to
retrieving a single counter for the one zone on the node.
