      [PATCH] sg: use compound pages · f9aed0e2
      由 Nick Piggin 提交于 
      sg increments the refcount of constituent pages in its higher order memory
allocations when they are about to be mapped by userspace.  This is done so
the subsequent get_page/put_page when doing the mapping and unmapping does not
free the page.

Move over to the preferred way, that is, using compound pages instead.  This
fixes a whole class of possible obscure bugs where a get_user_pages on a
constituent page may outlast the user mappings or even the driver.

      [PATCH] slab: Remove SLAB_NO_REAP option · ac2b898c
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      SLAB_NO_REAP is documented as an option that will cause this slab not to be
reaped under memory pressure.  However, that is not what happens.  The only
thing that SLAB_NO_REAP controls at the moment is the reclaim of the unused
slab elements that were allocated in batch in cache_reap().  Cache_reap()
is run every few seconds independently of memory pressure.

Could we remove the whole thing?  Its only used by three slabs anyways and
I cannot find a reason for having this option.

There is an additional problem with SLAB_NO_REAP.  If set then the recovery
of objects from alien caches is switched off.  Objects not freed on the
same node where they were initially allocated will only be reused if a
certain amount of objects accumulates from one alien node (not very likely)
or if the cache is explicitly shrunk.  (Strangely __cache_shrink does not
check for SLAB_NO_REAP)

Getting rid of SLAB_NO_REAP fixes the problems with alien cache freeing.

      [SCSI] libata: implement minimal transport template for ->eh_timed_out · 30afc84c
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      SCSI midlayer has moved hostt->eh_timed_out to transport template.  As
libata doesn't need full-blown transport support yet, implement
minimal transport for libata.  No transport class or whatsoever, just
empty transport template with ->eh_timed_out hook.
