This patch series adds generic support for creating and extracting LZO-compressed kernel images, as well as support for using such images on the x86 and ARM architectures, and support for creating and using LZO-compressed initrd and initramfs images. Russell King said: : Testing on a Cortex A9 model: : - lzo decompressor is 65% of the time gzip takes to decompress a kernel : - lzo kernel is 9% larger than a gzip kernel : : which I'm happy to say confirms your figures when comparing the two. : : However, when comparing your new gzip code to the old gzip code: : - new is 99% of the size of the old code : - new takes 42% of the time to decompress than the old code : : What this means is that for a proper comparison, the results get even better: : - lzo is 7.5% larger than the old gzip'd kernel image : - lzo takes 28% of the time that the old gzip code took : : So the expense seems definitely worth the effort. The only reason I : can think of ever using gzip would be if you needed the additional : compression (eg, because you have limited flash to store the image.) : : I would argue that the default for ARM should therefore be LZO. This patch: The lzo compressor is worse than gzip at compression, but faster at extraction. Here are some figures for an ARM board I'm working on: Uncompressed size: 3.24Mo gzip 1.61Mo 0.72s lzo 1.75Mo 0.48s So for a compression ratio that is still relatively close to gzip, it's much faster to extract, at least in that case. This part contains: - Makefile routine to support lzo compression - Fixes to the existing lzo compressor so that it can be used in compressed kernels - wrapper around the existing lzo1x_decompress, as it only extracts one block at a time, while we need to extract a whole file here - config dialog for kernel compression [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: cleanup] Signed-off-by: NAlbin Tonnerre <albin.tonnerre@free-electrons.com> Tested-by: NWu Zhangjin <wuzhangjin@gmail.com> Acked-by: N"H.

JFFS2 uses lesser compression ratio and inflate always ends up in "copy direct from output" case. This patch tries to optimize the direct copy procedure. Uses get_unaligned() but only in one place. The copy loop just above this one can also use this optimization, but I havn't done so as I have not tested if it is a win there too. On my MPC8321 this is about 17% faster on my JFFS2 root FS than the original.

Fix resource (write-pipe file) leak in call_usermodehelper_pipe(). When call_usermodehelper_exec() fails, write-pipe file is opened and call_usermodehelper_pipe() just returns an error. Since it is hard for caller to determine whether the error occured when opening the pipe or executing the helper, the caller cannot close the pipe by themselves. I've found this resoruce leak when testing coredump. You can check how the resource leaks as below; $ echo "|nocommand" > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern $ ulimit -c unlimited $ while [ 1 ]; do ./segv; done &> /dev/null & $ cat /proc/meminfo (<- repeat it) where segv.c is; //----- int main () { char *p = 0; *p = 1; } //----- This patch closes write-pipe file if call_usermodehelper_exec() failed.

Commit cbda12d7 (drm/i915: implement new pm ops for i915), among other things, removed the .suspend and .resume pointers from the struct drm_driver object in i915_drv.c, which broke resume without KMS on my MSI Wind U100. Fix this by reverting that part of commit cbda12d7. [ The DRM layer will not use the class-specific suspend/resume functions if the driver is marked MODESET-aware, and conversely it will not register the PCI device if the drievr isn't so marked, so you always end up with _either_ the drm-class suspend/resume _or_ the PCI layer PM functionality, never both. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

__per_cpu_idtrs is statically allocated ... on CONFIG_NR_CPUS=4096 systems it hogs 16MB of memory. This is way too much for a quite probably unused facility (only KVM uses dynamic TR registers). Change to an array of pointers, and allocate entries as needed on a per cpu basis. Change the name too as the __per_cpu_ prefix is confusing (this isn't a classic <linux/percpu.h> type object).

Blackfin needs it own arch specific probe_kernel_read() and probe_kernel_write(). This was moved out of the kgdb code and into the arch/blackfin/maccess.c, because it is a generic kernel api. The arch specific kgdb.c for blackfin was cleaned of all functions which exist in the kgdb core that do the same thing after resolving the probe_kernel_read() and probe_kernel_write(). This also eliminated the need for most of the #include's.

reiserfs_get_acl is usually not called under the reiserfs lock, as it doesn't need it. But it happens when it is called by reiserfs_acl_chmod(), which creates a dependency inversion against the private xattr inodes mutexes for the given inode. We need to call it without the reiserfs lock, especially since it's unnecessary.
