      VM: Remove "clear_page_dirty()" and "test_clear_page_dirty()" functions · fba2591b
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      They were horribly easy to mis-use because of their tempting naming, and
they also did way more than any users of them generally wanted them to
do.

A dirty page can become clean under two circumstances:

 (a) when we write it out.  We have "clear_page_dirty_for_io()" for
     this, and that function remains unchanged.

     In the "for IO" case it is not sufficient to just clear the dirty
     bit, you also have to mark the page as being under writeback etc.

 (b) when we actually remove a page due to it becoming inaccessible to
     users, notably because it was truncate()'d away or the file (or
     metadata) no longer exists, and we thus want to cancel any
     outstanding dirty state.

For the (b) case, we now introduce "cancel_dirty_page()", which only
touches the page state itself, and verifies that the page is not mapped
(since cancelling writes on a mapped page would be actively wrong as it
is still accessible to users).

Some filesystems need to be fixed up for this: CIFS, FUSE, JFS,
ReiserFS, XFS all use the old confusing functions, and will be fixed
separately in subsequent commits (with some of them just removing the
offending logic, and others using clear_page_dirty_for_io()).

This was confirmed by Martin Michlmayr to fix the apt database
corruption on ARM.

      [PATCH] cfq-iosched: don't allow sync merges across queues · da775265
      由 Jens Axboe 提交于 
      Currently we allow any merge, even if the io originates from different
processes. This can cause really bad starvation and unfairness, if those
ios happen to be synchronous (reads or direct writes).

So add a allow_merge hook to the io scheduler ops, so an io scheduler can
help decide whether a bio/process combination may be merged with an
existing request.

      ACPI: video: Add dev argument for backlight_device_register · 519ab5f2
      由 Yu Luming 提交于 
      This patch set adds generic abstract layer support for acpi video driver to
have generic user interface to control backlight and output switch control by
leveraging the existing backlight sysfs class driver, and by adding a new
video output sysfs class driver.

This patch:

Add dev argument for backlight_device_register to link the class device to
real device object.  The platform specific driver should find a way to get the
real device object for their video device.

      Make workqueue bit operations work on "atomic_long_t" · a08727ba
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      On architectures where the atomicity of the bit operations is handled by
external means (ie a separate spinlock to protect concurrent accesses),
just doing a direct assignment on the workqueue data field (as done by
commit 4594bf15) can cause the
assignment to be lost due to lack of serialization with the bitops on
the same word.

So we need to serialize the assignment with the locks on those
architectures (notably older ARM chips, PA-RISC and sparc32).

So rather than using an "unsigned long", let's use "atomic_long_t",
which already has a safe assignment operation (atomic_long_set()) on
such architectures.

This requires that the atomic operations use the same atomicity locks as
the bit operations do, but that is largely the case anyway.  Sparc32
will probably need fixing.

Architectures (including modern ARM with LL/SC) that implement sane
atomic operations for SMP won't see any of this matter.

      input/hid: Supporting more keys from the HUT Consumer Page · 1c1e40b5
      由 Florian Festi 提交于 
      On USB keyboards lots of hot/internet keys are not working. This patch
adds support for a number of keys from the USB HID Usage Table
(http://www.usb.org/developers/devclass_docs/Hut1_12.pdf).

It also adds several new key codes. Most of them are used on real world
keyboards I know. I added some others (KEY_+ EDITOR, GRAPHICSEDITOR, DATABASE,
NEWS, VOICEMAIL, VIDEOPHONE) to avoid "holes".

I also added KEY_ZOOMRESET as it is possible to have a inet keyboard and a
remote control  in parallel and it makes sense to have them behave differently.

      Driver core: Make platform_device_add_data accept a const pointer · 6eefd34f
      由 Scott Wood 提交于 
      platform_device_add_data() makes a copy of the data that is given to it,
and thus the parameter can be const.  This removes a warning when data
from get_property() on powerpc is handed to platform_device_add_data(),
as get_property() returns a const pointer.

      To allow a more effective copy_user_highpage() on certain architectures,
a vma argument is added to the function and cow_user_page() allowing
the implementation of these functions to check for the VM_EXEC bit.

      [PATCH] Fix COW D-cache aliasing on fork · 77fff4ae
      由 Atsushi Nemoto 提交于 
      Problem:

1. There is a process containing two thread (T1 and T2).  The
   thread T1 calls fork().  Then dup_mmap() function called on T1 context.

static inline int dup_mmap(struct mm_struct *mm, struct mm_struct *oldmm)
	...
	flush_cache_mm(current->mm);
	...	/* A */
	(write-protect all Copy-On-Write pages)
	...	/* B */
	flush_tlb_mm(current->mm);
	...

2. When preemption happens between A and B (or on SMP kernel), the
   thread T2 can run and modify data on COW pages without page fault
   (modified data will stay in cache).

3. Some time after fork() completed, the thread T2 may cause a page
   fault by write-protect on a COW page.

4. Then data of the COW page will be copied to newly allocated
   physical page (copy_cow_page()).  It reads data via kernel mapping.
   The kernel mapping can have different 'color' with user space
   mapping of the thread T2 (dcache aliasing).  Therefore
   copy_cow_page() will copy stale data.  Then the modified data in
   cache will be lost.

In order to allow architecture code to deal with this problem allow
architecture code to override copy_user_highpage() by defining
__HAVE_ARCH_COPY_USER_HIGHPAGE in <asm/page.h>.

      [PATCH] getting rid of all casts of k[cmz]alloc() calls · 5cbded58

      Run this:

	#!/bin/sh
	for f in $(grep -Erl "\([^\)]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do
	  echo "De-casting $f..."
	  perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f
	done

And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers
to non-pointers.

And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.
