Add a DESTROY operation for block device based filesystems. With the help of this operation, such a filesystem can flush dirty data to the device synchronously before the umount returns. This is needed in situations where the filesystem is assumed to be clean immediately after unmount (e.g. ejecting removable media).

Add a flag to the RELEASE message which specifies that a FLUSH operation should be performed as well. This interface update is needed for the FreeBSD port, and doesn't actually touch the Linux implementation at all. Also rename the unused 'flush_flags' in the FLUSH message to 'unused'.

Currently swsusp saves the contents of highmem pages by copying them to the normal zone which is quite inefficient (eg. it requires two normal pages to be used for saving one highmem page). This may be improved by using highmem for saving the contents of saveable highmem pages. Namely, during the suspend phase of the suspend-resume cycle we try to allocate as many free highmem pages as there are saveable highmem pages. If there are not enough highmem image pages to store the contents of all of the saveable highmem pages, some of them will be stored in the "normal" memory. Next, we allocate as many free "normal" pages as needed to store the (remaining) image data. We use a memory bitmap to mark the allocated free pages (ie. highmem as well as "normal" image pages). Now, we use another memory bitmap to mark all of the saveable pages (highmem as well as "normal") and the contents of the saveable pages are copied into the image pages. Then, the second bitmap is used to save the pfns corresponding to the saveable pages and the first one is used to save their data. During the resume phase the pfns of the pages that were saveable during the suspend are loaded from the image and used to mark the "unsafe" page frames. Next, we try to allocate as many free highmem page frames as to load all of the image data that had been in the highmem before the suspend and we allocate so many free "normal" page frames that the total number of allocated free pages (highmem and "normal") is equal to the size of the image. While doing this we have to make sure that there will be some extra free "normal" and "safe" page frames for two lists of PBEs constructed later. Now, the image data are loaded, if possible, into their "original" page frames. The image data that cannot be written into their "original" page frames are loaded into "safe" page frames and their "original" kernel virtual addresses, as well as the addresses of the "safe" pages containing their copies, are stored in one of two lists of PBEs. One list of PBEs is for the copies of "normal" suspend pages (ie. "normal" pages that were saveable during the suspend) and it is used in the same way as previously (ie. by the architecture-dependent parts of swsusp). The other list of PBEs is for the copies of highmem suspend pages. The pages in this list are restored (in a reversible way) right before the arch-dependent code is called. Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

Make swsusp use block device offsets instead of swap offsets to identify swap locations and make it use the same code paths for writing as well as for reading data. This allows us to use the same code for handling swap files and swap partitions and to simplify the code, eg. by dropping rw_swap_page_sync(). Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

由 Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于
The Linux kernel handles swap files almost in the same way as it handles swap partitions and there are only two differences between these two types of swap areas: (1) swap files need not be contiguous, (2) the header of a swap file is not in the first block of the partition that holds it. From the swsusp's point of view (1) is not a problem, because it is already taken care of by the swap-handling code, but (2) has to be taken into consideration. In principle the location of a swap file's header may be determined with the help of appropriate filesystem driver. Unfortunately, however, it requires the filesystem holding the swap file to be mounted, and if this filesystem is journaled, it cannot be mounted during a resume from disk. For this reason we need some other means by which swap areas can be identified. For example, to identify a swap area we can use the partition that holds the area and the offset from the beginning of this partition at which the swap header is located. The following patch allows swsusp to identify swap areas this way. It changes swap_type_of() so that it takes an additional argument representing an offset of the swap header within the partition represented by its first argument. Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

Make radix tree lookups safe to be performed without locks. Readers are protected against nodes being deleted by using RCU based freeing. Readers are protected against new node insertion by using memory barriers to ensure the node itself will be properly written before it is visible in the radix tree. Each radix tree node keeps a record of their height (above leaf nodes). This height does not change after insertion -- when the radix tree is extended, higher nodes are only inserted in the top. So a lookup can take the pointer to what is *now* the root node, and traverse down it even if the tree is concurrently extended and this node becomes a subtree of a new root. "Direct" pointers (tree height of 0, where root->rnode points directly to the data item) are handled by using the low bit of the pointer to signal whether rnode is a direct pointer or a pointer to a radix tree node. When a reader wants to traverse the next branch, they will take a copy of the pointer. This pointer will be either NULL (and the branch is empty) or non-NULL (and will point to a valid node).

Currently we we use the lru head link of the second page of a compound page to hold its destructor. This was ok when it was purely an internal implmentation detail. However, hugetlbfs overrides this destructor violating the layering. Abstract this out as explicit calls, also introduce a type for the callback function allowing them to be type checked. For each callback we pre-declare the function, causing a type error on definition rather than on use elsewhere.

NUMA node ids are passed as either int or unsigned int almost exclusivly page_to_nid and zone_to_nid both return unsigned long. This is a throw back to when page_to_nid was a #define and was thus exposing the real type of the page flags field. In addition to fixing up the definitions of page_to_nid and zone_to_nid I audited the users of these functions identifying the following incorrect uses: 1) mm/page_alloc.c show_node() -- printk dumping the node id, 2) include/asm-ia64/pgalloc.h pgtable_quicklist_free() -- comparison against numa_node_id() which returns an int from cpu_to_node(), and 3) mm/mpolicy.c check_pte_range -- used as an index in node_isset which uses bit_set which in generic code takes an int.

For node-aware skb allocations we need information about the node in struct net_device or struct device. Davem suggested to put it into struct device which this patch does. In particular: - struct device gets a new int numa_node member if CONFIG_NUMA is set - there are two new helpers, dev_to_node and set_dev_node to transparently deal with the non-numa case - for pci devices the node-info is set to the value we get from pcibus_to_node. Note that for some architectures pcibus_to_node doesn't work yet at the time we call it currently. This is harmless and will just mean skb allocations aren't node-local on this architectures until the implementation of pcibus_to_node on these architectures have been updated (There are patches for x86 and x86_64 floating around) [akpm@osdl.org: cleanup] Signed-off-by: NChristoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: Christoph Lameter <clameter@engr.sgi.com> Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

We have variants of kmalloc and kmem_cache_alloc that leave leak tracking to the caller. This is used for subsystem-specific allocators like skb_alloc. To make skb_alloc node-aware we need similar routines for the node-aware slab allocator, which this patch adds. Note that the code is rather ugly, but it mirrors the non-node-aware code 1:1: [akpm@osdl.org: add module export] Signed-off-by: NChristoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Make kmap_atomic/kunmap_atomic denote a pagefault disabled scope. All non trivial implementations already do this anyway.

Introduce pagefault_{disable,enable}() and use these where previously we did manual preempt increments/decrements to make the pagefault handler do the atomic thing. Currently they still rely on the increased preempt count, but do not rely on the disabled preemption, this might go away in the future. (NOTE: the extra barrier() in pagefault_disable might fix some holes on machines which have too many registers for their own good) [heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com: s390 fix] Signed-off-by: NPeter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: NNick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NHeiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
