Fix node-oriented allocation handling in oom-kill.c I myself think of this as a bugfix not as an ehnancement. In these days, things are changed as - alloc_pages() eats nodemask as its arguments, __alloc_pages_nodemask(). - mempolicy don't maintain its own private zonelists. (And cpuset doesn't use nodemask for __alloc_pages_nodemask()) So, current oom-killer's check function is wrong. This patch does - check nodemask, if nodemask && nodemask doesn't cover all node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY], this is CONSTRAINT_MEMORY_POLICY. - Scan all zonelist under nodemask, if it hits cpuset's wall this faiulre is from cpuset. And - modifies the caller of out_of_memory not to call oom if __GFP_THISNODE. This doesn't change "current" behavior. If callers use __GFP_THISNODE it should handle "page allocation failure" by itself. - handle __GFP_NOFAIL+__GFP_THISNODE path. This is something like a FIXME but this gfpmask is not used now.

The kernel offers with TIOCL_GETKMSGREDIRECT ioctl() the possibility to redirect the kernel messages to a specific console. However, since it's not possible to switch to the kernel message console after a panic(), it would be nice if the kernel would print the panic message on the current console. This patch series adds a new interface to access the global kmsg_redirect variable by a function to be able to use it in code where CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is not set (kernel/panic.c). This patch: Instead of using and exporting a global value kmsg_redirect, introduce a function vt_kmsg_redirect() that both can set and return the console where messages are printed. Change all users of kmsg_redirect (the VT code itself and kernel/power.c) to the new interface. The main advantage is that vt_kmsg_redirect() can also be used when CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is not set.

Use DECLARE_BITMAP(), find_first_zero_bit(), set_bit() and clear_bit() instead of rewriting code to do it with the minor number dynamic allocation bitmap. We need to invert the bit position to keep the code behaviour of using the last minor numbers first, since we don't have a find_last_zero_bit.

If there's a failure creating the device (because there's already one with the same name, for example), the current implementation does not clear the bit for the allocated minor and that number is lost for future allocations. Second, the test currently in misc_deregister is broken, since it does not test for the 0 minor. Signed-off-by: NThadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo <cascardo@holoscopio.com> Cc: "H.

In nvram_write, first of all, correctly handle the case where the file pointer is already beyond the end; we should return EOF in that case. Second, make the logic a bit more explicit so that gcc can statically prove that the copy_from_user() is safe. Once the condition of the beyond-end filepointer is eliminated, the copy is safe but gcc can't prove it, causing build failures for i386 allyesconfig. Third, eliminate the entirely superfluous variable "len", and just use the passed-in variable "count" instead. Signed-off-by: NH.

moxa_openlock is used for several situations where we want to handle the case of an ioctl that crosses many ports (not just the open tty), and also cases where an open races a deinit (eg a pci unplug) and we hangup a port before we can cope with that. The non open race cases can use the moxa_lock spinlock. This simplifies sorting out the remaining mess.

Some devices want to set IO_ERROR in their activate methods so that you can be handed a 'dead' port for operations like setserial.
