dma_set_coherent_mask corresponds to pci_set_consistent_dma_mask. This is necessary to move to the generic device model DMA API from the PCI bus specific API in the long term. dma_set_coherent_mask works in the exact same way that pci_set_consistent_dma_mask does. So this patch also changes pci_set_consistent_dma_mask to call dma_set_coherent_mask.

We'll move to this new generic API from the PCI specific API in the long term. As include/asm-generic/pci-dma-compat.h does, the pci_unmap API simply calls the new generic API for some time.

dma_sync_single_for_cpu/for_device supports a partial sync so there is no point to have dma_sync_single_range (also dma_sync_single was obsoleted long ago, replaced with dma_sync_single_for_cpu/for_device). There is no user of dma_sync_single_range() in mainline and only Alpha architecture supports dma_sync_single_range(). So it's unlikely that someone out of the tree uses it.

This adds the description of the following eight function: dma_sync_single_for_cpu pci_dma_sync_single_for_cpu dma_sync_single_for_device pci_dma_sync_single_for_device dma_sync_sg_for_cpu pci_dma_sync_sg_for_cpu dma_sync_sg_for_device pci_dma_sync_sg_for_device It was unclear that the API permits a partial sync (some network drivers already do though). I made it clear that the sync_single API can do a partial sync but the sync_sg API can't. We could do a partial sync with the sync_sg API too, however, it's difficult for driver writers to correctly use the sync_sg API for a partial sync since the scatterlists passed in to the mapping API can't be modified. It's unlikely that driver writers want to do a partial sync with the sync_sg API (because the sync_sg API are usually used for block drivers). So I think that it's better to forbid a partial sync with the sync_sg API.

In some cases kipmid can use a lot of CPU. This adds a way to tune the CPU used by kipmid to help in those cases. By setting kipmid_max_busy_us to a value between 100 and 500, it is possible to bring down kipmid CPU load to practically 0 without loosing too much ipmi throughput performance. Not setting the value, or setting the value to zero, operation is unaffected.

Presently, if panic_on_oom=2, the whole system panics even if the oom happend in some special situation (as cpuset, mempolicy....). Then, panic_on_oom=2 means painc_on_oom_always. Now, memcg doesn't check panic_on_oom flag. This patch adds a check. BTW, how it's useful ? kdump+panic_on_oom=2 is the last tool to investigate what happens in oom-ed system. When a task is killed, the sysytem recovers and there will be few hint to know what happnes. In mission critical system, oom should never happen. Then, panic_on_oom=2+kdump is useful to avoid next OOM by knowing precise information via snapshot. TODO: - For memcg, it's for isolate system's memory usage, oom-notiifer and freeze_at_oom (or rest_at_oom) should be implemented. Then, management daemon can do similar jobs (as kdump) or taking snapshot per cgroup.

It allows to register multiple memory and memsw thresholds and gets notifications when it crosses. To register a threshold application need: - create an eventfd; - open memory.usage_in_bytes or memory.memsw.usage_in_bytes; - write string like "<event_fd> <memory.usage_in_bytes> <threshold>" to cgroup.event_control. Application will be notified through eventfd when memory usage crosses threshold in any direction. It's applicable for root and non-root cgroup. It uses stats to track memory usage, simmilar to soft limits. It checks if we need to send event to userspace on every 100 page in/out. I guess it's good compromise between performance and accuracy of thresholds.

To register new notification handler you need: - create an eventfd; - open a control file to be monitored. Callbacks register_event() and unregister_event() must be defined for the control file; - write "<event_fd> <control_fd> <args>" to cgroup.event_control. Interpretation of args is defined by control file implementation; eventfd will be woken up by control file implementation or when the cgroup is removed. To unregister notification handler just close eventfd. If you need notification functionality for a control file you have to implement callbacks register_event() and unregister_event() in the struct cftype.

This patch is another core part of this move-charge-at-task-migration feature. It enables moving charges of anonymous swaps. To move the charge of swap, we need to exchange swap_cgroup's record. In current implementation, swap_cgroup's record is protected by: - page lock: if the entry is on swap cache. - swap_lock: if the entry is not on swap cache. This works well in usual swap-in/out activity. But this behavior make the feature of moving swap charge check many conditions to exchange swap_cgroup's record safely. So I changed modification of swap_cgroup's recored(swap_cgroup_record()) to use xchg, and define a new function to cmpxchg swap_cgroup's record. This patch also enables moving charge of non pte_present but not uncharged swap caches, which can be exist on swap-out path, by getting the target pages via find_get_page() as do_mincore() does.

In current memcg, charges associated with a task aren't moved to the new cgroup at task migration. Some users feel this behavior to be strange. These patches are for this feature, that is, for charging to the new cgroup and, of course, uncharging from the old cgroup at task migration. This patch adds "memory.move_charge_at_immigrate" file, which is a flag file to determine whether charges should be moved to the new cgroup at task migration or not and what type of charges should be moved. This patch also adds read and write handlers of the file. This patch also adds no-op handlers for this feature. These handlers will be implemented in later patches. And you cannot write any values other than 0 to move_charge_at_immigrate yet.

Benefits of this constification: * prevents modification of data that is shared (referenced) by many other structure instances at runtime * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional) modification attempts on archs that enforce read-only kernel data at runtime * potentially better optimized code as the compiler can assume that the const data cannot be changed * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata and therefore exclude them from false sharing Signed-off-by: NEmese Revfy <re.emese@gmail.com> Acked-by: NDavid Teigland <teigland@redhat.com> Acked-by: NMatt Domsch <Matt_Domsch@dell.com> Acked-by: NMaciej Sosnowski <maciej.sosnowski@intel.com> Acked-by: NHans J.

This patch adds the MPC5121 to the list of supported devices, enhances the doc of the "clock-frequency" property and removes the obsolete "cell-index", "device_type" and "fsl-i2c" property. Furthermore an example for the MPC5121 has been added.

There are subsystems whose power management callbacks only need to invoke the callbacks provided by device drivers. Still, their system sleep PM callbacks should play well with the runtime PM callbacks, so that devices suspended at run time can be left in that state for a system sleep transition. Provide a set of generic PM callbacks for such subsystems and define convenience macros for populating dev_pm_ops structures. Signed-off-by: NRafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>

The power.runtime_auto device flag and the helper functions pm_runtime_allow() and pm_runtime_forbid() used to modify it are a part of the run-time power management framework and therefore they should be described in Documentation/power/runtime_pm.txt.

gpio_request() without initial configuration of the GPIO is normally useless, introduce gpio_request_one() together with GPIOF_ flags for input/output direction and initial output level. gpio_{request,free}_array() for multiple GPIOs.

Add adds a debugfs interface and additional failure modes to LKDTM to provide similar functionality to the provoke-crash driver submitted here: http://lwn.net/Articles/371208/ Crashes can now be induced either through module parameters (as before) or through the debugfs interface as in provoke-crash. The patch also provides a new "direct" interface, where KPROBES are not used, i.e., the crash is invoked directly upon write to the debugfs file. When built without KPROBES configured, only this mode is available. Signed-off-by: NSimon Kagstrom <simon.kagstrom@netinsight.net> Cc: M.

Add a bare description of what /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX is. Others will follow in time but right now, none of that tree is documented. The existence of this file might at least encourage people to document new entries.
