      cpumask: centralize cpu_online_map and cpu_possible_map · 98a79d6a
      Rusty Russell 提交于
      Impact: cleanup
      
      Each SMP arch defines these themselves.  Move them to a central
      location.
      
      Twists:
      1) Some archs (m32, parisc, s390) set possible_map to all 1, so we add a
         CONFIG_INIT_ALL_POSSIBLE for this rather than break them.
      
      2) mips and sparc32 '#define cpu_possible_map phys_cpu_present_map'.
         Those archs simply have phys_cpu_present_map replaced everywhere.
      
      3) Alpha defined cpu_possible_map to cpu_present_map; this is tricky
         so I just manipulate them both in sync.
      
      4) IA64, cris and m32r have gratuitous 'extern cpumask_t cpu_possible_map'
         declarations.

      [S390] No more 4kb stacks. · 7f5a8ba6
      Heiko Carstens 提交于
      We got a stack overflow with a small stack configuration on a 32 bit
      system. It just looks like as 4kb isn't enough and too dangerous.
      So lets get rid of 4kb stacks on 32 bit.
      
      But one thing I completely dislike about the call trace below is that
      just for debugging or tracing purposes sprintf gets called (cio_start_key):
      
      	/* process condition code */
      	sprintf(dbf_txt, "ccode:%d", ccode);
      	CIO_TRACE_EVENT(4, dbf_txt);
      
      But maybe its just me who thinks that this could be done better.

      allyesconfig and allmodconfig built kernels have a tape IPL record.
      A the vmreader record makes much more sense, since hardly anybody will

      container freezer: implement freezer cgroup subsystem · dc52ddc0
      Matt Helsley 提交于
      This patch implements a new freezer subsystem in the control groups
      framework.  It provides a way to stop and resume execution of all tasks in
      a cgroup by writing in the cgroup filesystem.
      
      The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a file named
      freezer.state.  Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks
      in the cgroup.  Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in
      the cgroup.  Reading will return the current state.
      
      * Examples of usage :
      
         # mkdir /containers/freezer
         # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer  /containers
         # mkdir /containers/0
         # echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks
      
      to get status of the freezer subsystem :
      
         # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
         RUNNING
      
      to freeze all tasks in the container :
      
         # echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state
         # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
         FREEZING
         # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
         FROZEN
      
      to unfreeze all tasks in the container :
      
         # echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state
         # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
         RUNNING
      
      This is the basic mechanism which should do the right thing for user space
      task in a simple scenario.
      
      It's important to note that freezing can be incomplete.  In that case we
      return EBUSY.  This means that some tasks in the cgroup are busy doing
      something that prevents us from completely freezing the cgroup at this
      time.  After EBUSY, the cgroup will remain partially frozen -- reflected
      by freezer.state reporting "FREEZING" when read.  The state will remain
      "FREEZING" until one of these things happens:
      
      	1) Userspace cancels the freezing operation by writing "RUNNING" to
      		the freezer.state file
      	2) Userspace retries the freezing operation by writing "FROZEN" to
      		the freezer.state file (writing "FREEZING" is not legal
      		and returns EIO)
      	3) The tasks that blocked the cgroup from entering the "FROZEN"
      		state disappear from the cgroup's set of tasks.

      Heiko Carstens 提交于
      Compiling a kernel with allmodconfig or allyesconfig results in tons
      of gcc warnings, because the default maximum stacksize from which on
      gcc will emit a warning is just 256 bytes.
      Increase this to 2048, so these warnings don't distract from the real
      warnings that we need to watch at.
