do_device_access() takes a separate parameter to indicate the direction of
data transfer, which it used to use to select the appropriate function out
of sg_pcopy_{to,from}_buffer().  However these two functions now have

So this patch makes it bypass these wrappers and call the underlying
function sg_copy_buffer() directly; this has the same calling style as
do_device_access() i.e.  a separate direction-of-transfer parameter and no
pointers-to-const, so skipping the wrappers not only eliminates the
warning, it also make the code simpler :)

The 'buf' parameter of sg(p)copy_from_buffer() can and should be
const-qualified, although because of the shared implementation of
_to_buffer() and _from_buffer(), we have to cast this away internally.

This means that callers who have a 'const' buffer containing the data to
be copied to the sg-list no longer have to cast away the const-ness
themselves.  It also enables improved coverage by code analysis tools.

The kerneldoc for the functions doesn't match the code; the last two
parameters (buflen, skip) have been transposed, which is confusing,
especially as they're both integral types and the compiler won't warn
about swapping them.

These functions and the kerneldoc were introduced in commit:

    The only difference between sg_pcopy_{from,to}_buffer() and
    sg_copy_{from,to}_buffer() is an additional argument that
    specifies the number of bytes to skip the SG list before
    copying.

The functions have the extra argument at the end, but the kerneldoc
lists it in penultimate position.

In ipc_obtain_object_check we return -EIDRM when a bogus sequence number
is detected via ipc_checkid, while the ipc manpages state the following
return codes for such errors:

   EIDRM  <ID> points to a removed identifier.
   EINVAL Invalid <ID> value, or unaligned, etc.

EIDRM should only be returned upon a RMID call (->deleted check), and thus
return EINVAL for wrong seq.  This difference in semantics has also caused

The ipc_lock helper is used by all forms of sysv ipc to acquire the ipc
object's spinlock.  Upon error (bogus identifier), we always return
-EINVAL, whether the problem be in the idr path or because we raced with a
task performing RMID.  For the later, however, all ipc related manpages,
state the that for:

       EIDRM  <ID> points to a removed identifier.

And return:

       EINVAL Invalid <ID> value, or unaligned, etc.

Which (EINVAL) should only return once the ipc resource is deleted.  For
all types of ipc this is done immediately upon a RMID command.  However,
shared memory behaves slightly different as it can merely mark a segment
for deletion, and delay the actual freeing until there are no more active
consumers.  Per shmctl(IPC_RMID) manpage:

""
Mark  the  segment to be destroyed.  The segment will only actually
be destroyed after the last process detaches it (i.e., when the
shm_nattch member of the associated structure shmid_ds is zero).
""

Unlike ipc_lock, paths that behave "correctly", at least per the manpage,
involve controlling the ipc resource via *ctl(), doing the exact same
validity check as ipc_lock after right acquiring the spinlock:

	if (!ipc_valid_object()) {
		err = -EIDRM;
		goto out_unlock;
	}

Thus make ipc_lock consistent with the rest of ipc code and return -EIDRM
in ipc_lock when !ipc_valid_object().

We currently use a full barrier on the sender side to to avoid receiver
tasks disappearing on us while still performing on the sender side wakeup.
 We lack however, the proper CPU-CPU interactions pairing on the receiver
side which busy-waits for the message.  Similarly, we do not need a full
smp_mb, and can relax the semantics for the writer and reader sides of the
message.  This is safe as we are only ordering loads and stores to r_msg.
And in both smp_wmb and smp_rmb, there are no stores after the calls
_anyway_.

This obviously applies for pipelined_send and expunge_all, for EIRDM when

Fix kernel gcov support for GCC 5.1.  Similar to commit a992bf83
("gcov: add support for GCC 4.9"), this patch takes into account the
existence of a new gcov counter (see gcc's gcc/gcov-counter.def.)

Firstly, it increments GCOV_COUNTERS (to 10), which makes the data
structure struct gcov_info compatible with GCC 5.1.

Secondly, a corresponding counter function __gcov_merge_icall_topn (Top N
value tracking for indirect calls) is included in base.c with the other
gcov counters unused for kernel profiling.

Commit f06e5153 ("kernel/panic.c: add "crash_kexec_post_notifiers"
option for kdump after panic_notifers") introduced
"crash_kexec_post_notifiers" kernel boot option, which toggles wheather
panic() calls crash_kexec() before panic_notifiers and dump kmsg or after.

The problem is that the commit overlooks panic_on_oops kernel boot option.
 If it is enabled, crash_kexec() is called directly without going through
panic() in oops path.

To fix this issue, this patch adds a check to "crash_kexec_post_notifiers"
in the condition of kexec_should_crash().

Also, put a comment in kexec_should_crash() to explain not obvious things
on this patch.

For compatibility with the behaviour before the commit f06e5153
("kernel/panic.c: add "crash_kexec_post_notifiers" option for kdump after
panic_notifers"), the 2nd crash_kexec() should be called only if
crash_kexec_post_notifiers is enabled.

Note that crash_kexec() returns immediately if kdump crash kernel is not
loaded, so in this case, this patch makes no functionality change, but the
point is to make it explicit, from the caller panic() side, that the 2nd
crash_kexec() does nothing.

Any parameter passed after '--' in the kernel command-line will not be
parsed by the kernel at all, instead it will be passed directly to init
process.

Currently the kernel appends elfcorehdr=<paddr> to the cmdline passed from
kexec load, and if this command-line is used to pass parameters to init
process this means that 'elfcorehdr' will not be parsed as a kernel
parameter at all which will be a problem for vmcore subsystem since it
will know nothing about the location of the ELF structure!

Prepending 'elfcorehdr' instead of appending it fixes this problem since
it ensures that it always comes before '--' and so it's always parsed as a
kernel command-line parameter.

Even with this patch things can still go wrong if 'CONFIG_CMDLINE' was
also used to embedd a command-line to the crash dump kernel and this
command-line contains '--' since the current behavior of the kernel is to
actually append the boot loader command-line to the embedded command-line.

v2.6.0-test3), support for this uncommon feature can be removed from

A patchset to remove support for passing pre-allocated struct seq_file to
seq_open().  Such feature is undocumented and prone to error.

In particular, if seq_release() is used in release handler, it will
kfree() a pointer which was not allocated by seq_open().

So this patchset drops support for pre-allocated struct seq_file: it's
only of use in proc_namespace.c and can be easily replaced by using
seq_open_private()/seq_release_private().

Additionally, it documents the use of file->private_data to hold pointer
to struct seq_file by seq_open().

This patch (of 3):

        want and set ->private_data to it.  seq_open() will then abstain from

Such behavior is only used by mounts_open_common().

In order to drop support for such uncommon feature, proc_mounts is
converted to use seq_open_private(), which take care of allocating the
proc_mounts structure, making it available through ->private in struct
seq_file.

Conversely, proc_mounts is converted to use seq_release_private(), in
order to release the private structure allocated by seq_open_private().

Then, ->private is used directly instead of proc_mounts() macro to access
to the proc_mounts structure.

Waiman Long reported that 24TB machines hit OOM during basic setup when
struct page initialisation was deferred.  One approach is to initialise
memory on demand but it interferes with page allocator paths.  This patch
creates dedicated threads to initialise memory before basic setup.  It
then blocks on a rw_semaphore until completion as a wait_queue and counter
is overkill.  This may be slower to boot but it's simplier overall and
also gets rid of a section mangling which existed so kswapd could do the
initialisation.

practice this check only found problems very early during the
