ata_pci_init_one() receives an array of struct ata_port_info. Recent updates to the code had always obtained port information from array element 0, rather than array element N. Change to avoid hardcoding port_info[0], thereby restoring proper hardware information to secondary legacy ports.

The second argument to ata_qc_complete() was being used for two purposes: communicate the ATA Status register to the completion function, and indicate an error. On legacy PCI IDE hardware, the latter is often implicit in the former. On more modern hardware, the driver often completely emulated a Status register value, passing ATA_ERR as an indication that something went wrong. Now that previous code changes have eliminated the need to use drv_stat arg to communicate the ATA Status register value, we can convert it to a mask of possible error classes. This will lead to more flexible error handling in the future.

In 'mm' change the explicit use of a for-loop using NR_CPUS into the general for_each_cpu() constructs. This widens the scope of potential future optimizations of the general constructs, as well as takes advantage of the existing optimizations of first_cpu() and next_cpu(), which is advantageous when the true CPU count is much smaller than NR_CPUS.

Policy contextualization is only useful for task based policies and not for vma based policies. It may be useful to define allowed nodes that are not accessible from this thread because other threads may have access to these nodes. Without this patch strange memory policy situations may cause an application to fail with out of memory. Example: Let's say we have two threads A and B that share the same address space and a huge array computational array X. Thread A is restricted by its cpuset to nodes 0 and 1 and thread B is restricted by its cpuset to nodes 2 and 3. Thread A now wants to restrict allocations to the first node and thus applies a BIND policy on X to node 0 and 2. The cpuset limits this to node 0. Thus pages for X must be allocated on node 0 now. Thread B now touches a page that has never been used in X and faults in a page. According to the BIND policy of the vma for X the page must be allocated on page 0. However, the cpuset of B does not allow allocation on 0 and 1. Now the application fails in alloc_pages with out of memory.

- Do a separation between do_xxx and sys_xxx functions. sys_xxx functions take variable sized bitmaps from user space as arguments. do_xxx functions take fixed sized nodemask_t as arguments and may be used from inside the kernel. Doing so simplifies the initialization code. There is no fs = kernel_ds assumption anymore. - Split up get_nodes into get_nodes (which gets the node list) and contextualize_policy which restricts the nodes to those accessible to the task and updates cpusets. - Add comments explaining limitations of bind policy Signed-off-by: NChristoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@muc.de> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

pgdat->node_size_lock is basically only neeeded in one place in the normal code: show_mem(), which is the arch-specific sysrq-m printing function. Strictly speaking, the architectures not doing memory hotplug do no need this locking in show_mem(). However, they are all included for completeness. This should also make any future consolidation of all of the implementations a little more straightforward. This lock is also held in the sparsemem code during a memory removal, as sections are invalidated. This is the place there pfn_valid() is made false for a memory area that's being removed. The lock is only required when doing pfn_valid() operations on memory which the user does not already have a reference on the page, such as in show_mem().

When doing memory hotplug operations, the size of existing zones can obviously change. This means that zone->zone_{start_pfn,spanned_pages} can change. There are currently no locks that protect these structure members. However, they are rarely accessed at runtime. Outside of swsusp, the only place that I can find is bad_range(). So, split bad_range() up into two pieces: one that needs to be locked and anther that doesn't.

If a zone is empty at boot-time and then hot-added to later, it needs to run the same init code that would have been run on it at boot.

We had a problem on ppc64 where with more than 4 threads a large system wouldn't scale well while faulting in the .text (most of the time was spent in the kernel despite it was an userland compute intensive app). The reason is the useless overwrite of the same pte from all cpu. I fixed it this way (verified on an older kernel but the forward port is almost identical). This will benefit all archs not just ppc64.

Basic overcommit checking for hugetlb_file_map() based on an implementation used with demand faulting in SLES9. Since demand faulting can't guarantee the availability of pages at mmap time, this patch implements a basic sanity check to ensure that the number of huge pages required to satisfy the mmap are currently available. Despite the obvious race, I think it is a good start on doing proper accounting. I'd like to work towards an accounting system that mimics the semantics of normal pages (especially for the MAP_PRIVATE/COW case). That work is underway and builds on what this patch starts. Huge page shared memory segments are simpler and still maintain their commit on shmget semantics.

Below is a patch to implement demand faulting for huge pages. The main motivation for changing from prefaulting to demand faulting is so that huge page memory areas can be allocated according to NUMA policy. Thanks to consolidated hugetlb code, switching the behavior requires changing only one fault handler. The bulk of the patch just moves the logic from hugelb_prefault() to hugetlb_pte_fault() and find_get_huge_page().

A couple of oddities were guarded by page_table_lock, no longer properly guarded when that is split. The mm_counters of file_rss and anon_rss: make those an atomic_t, or an atomic64_t if the architecture supports it, in such a case. Definitions by courtesy of Christoph Lameter: who spent considerable effort on more scalable ways of counting, but found insufficient benefit in practice. And adding an mm with swap to the mmlist for swapoff: the list is well- guarded by its own lock, but the list_empty check now has to be repeated inside it.

Christoph Lameter demonstrated very poor scalability on the SGI 512-way, with a many-threaded application which concurrently initializes different parts of a large anonymous area. This patch corrects that, by using a separate spinlock per page table page, to guard the page table entries in that page, instead of using the mm's single page_table_lock. (But even then, page_table_lock is still used to guard page table allocation, and anon_vma allocation.) In this implementation, the spinlock is tucked inside the struct page of the page table page: with a BUILD_BUG_ON in case it overflows - which it would in the case of 32-bit PA-RISC with spinlock debugging enabled. Splitting the lock is not quite for free: another cacheline access. Ideally, I suppose we would use split ptlock only for multi-threaded processes on multi-cpu machines; but deciding that dynamically would have its own costs. So for now enable it by config, at some number of cpus - since the Kconfig language doesn't support inequalities, let preprocessor compare that with NR_CPUS. But I don't think it's worth being user-configurable: for good testing of both split and unsplit configs, split now at 4 cpus, and perhaps change that to 8 later. There is a benefit even for singly threaded processes: kswapd can be attacking one part of the mm while another part is busy faulting.

Prepare arm for the split page_table_lock: three issues. Signal handling's preserve and restore of iwmmxt context currently involves reading and writing that context to and from user space, while holding page_table_lock to secure the user page(s) against kswapd. If we split the lock, then the structure might span two pages, secured by to read into and write from a kernel stack buffer, copying that out and in without locking (the structure is 160 bytes in size, and here we're near the top of the kernel stack). Or would the overhead be noticeable? arm_syscall's cmpxchg emulation use pte_offset_map_lock, instead of pte_offset_map and mm-wide page_table_lock; and strictly, it should now also take mmap_sem before descending to pmd, to guard against another thread munmapping, and the page table pulled out beneath this thread. Updated two comments in fault-armv.c. adjust_pte is interesting, since its modification of a pte in one part of the mm depends on the lock held when calling update_mmu_cache for a pte in some other part of that mm. This can't be done with a split page_table_lock (and we've already taken the lowest lock in the hierarchy here): so we'll have to disable split on arm, unless CONFIG_CPU_CACHE_VIPT to ensures adjust_pte never used.

The sh64 flush_cache_range and helpers: which wrongly thought callers held page_table_lock before (only its tlb_start_vma did, and no longer does so); moved the flush loop down, and adjusted the large versus small range decision to consider a range which spans page tables as large.

Final step in pushing down common core's page_table_lock. follow_page no longer wants caller to hold page_table_lock, uses pte_offset_map_lock itself; and so no page_table_lock is taken in get_user_pages itself. But get_user_pages (and get_futex_key) do then need follow_page to pin the page for them: take Daniel's suggestion of bitflags to follow_page. Need one for WRITE, another for TOUCH (it was the accessed flag before: vanished along with check_user_page_readable, but surely get_numa_maps is wrong to mark every page it finds as accessed), another for GET. And another, ANON to dispose of untouched_anonymous_page: it seems silly for that to descend a second time, let follow_page observe if there was no page table and return ZERO_PAGE if so. Fix minor bug in that: check VM_LOCKED - make_pages_present ought to make readonly anonymous present. Give get_numa_maps a cond_resched while we're there.

check_user_page_readable is a problematic variant of follow_page. It's used only by oprofile's i386 and arm backtrace code, at interrupt time, to establish whether a userspace stackframe is currently readable. This is problematic, because we want to push the page_table_lock down inside follow_page, and later split it; whereas oprofile is doing a spin_trylock on it (in the i386 case, forgotten in the arm case), and needs that to pin perhaps two pages spanned by the stackframe (which might be covered by different locks when we split). I think oprofile is going about this in the wrong way: it doesn't need to know the area is readable (neither i386 nor arm uses read protection of user pages), it doesn't need to pin the memory, it should simply __copy_from_user_inatomic, and see if that succeeds or not. Sorry, but I've not got around to devising the sparse __user annotations for this. Then we can eliminate check_user_page_readable, and return to a single follow_page without the __follow_page variants.
