      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      [PATCH] inode-diet: Eliminate i_blksize from the inode structure · ba52de12
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      This eliminates the i_blksize field from struct inode.  Filesystems that want
      to provide a per-inode st_blksize can do so by providing their own getattr
      routine instead of using the generic_fillattr() function.
      
      Note that some filesystems were providing pretty much random (and incorrect)
      values for i_blksize.

      [PATCH] inode_diet: Replace inode.u.generic_ip with inode.i_private · 8e18e294
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes
      on a UP x86.  (It would be more on an x86_64 system).  This is a 10% reduction
      in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode
      (i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to
      save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is
      disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat
      in the VFS inode structure).
      
      This patch:
      
      The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union,
      which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been
      using the void pointer.  Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with
      a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer.  This is just a
      cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where
      the union will actually be used.

      [PATCH] s390_hypfs filesystem · 24bbb1fa
      Michael Holzheu 提交于
      On zSeries machines there exists an interface which allows the operating
      system to retrieve LPAR hypervisor accounting data.  For example, it is
      possible to get usage data for physical and virtual cpus.  In order to
      provide this information to user space programs, I implemented a new
      virtual Linux file system named 's390_hypfs' using the Linux 2.6 libfs
      framework.  The name 's390_hypfs' stands for 'S390 Hypervisor Filesystem'.
      All the accounting information is put into different virtual files which
      can be accessed from user space.  All data is represented as ASCII strings.
      
      When the file system is mounted the accounting information is retrieved and
      a file system tree is created with the attribute files containing the cpu
      information.  The content of the files remains unchanged until a new update
      is made.  An update can be triggered from user space through writing
      'something' into a special purpose update file.
      
      We create the following directory structure:
      
      <mount-point>/
              update
              cpus/
                      <cpu-id>
                              type
                              mgmtime
                      <cpu-id>
                              ...
              hyp/
                      type
              systems/
                      <lpar-name>
                              cpus/
                                      <cpu-id>
                                              type
                                              mgmtime

      - cpus/<cpu-id>/mgmtime: Physical-LPAR-management time in microseconds.
      - hyp/: Directory for hypervisor information
      - hyp/type: Typ of hypervisor (currently only 'LPAR Hypervisor')
      - systems/: Directory for all LPARs

      - systems/<lpar-name>/cpus/<cpu-id>/: Directory for the virtual cpus
      - systems/<lpar-name>/cpus/<cpu-id>/type: Typ of cpu.
      - systems/<lpar-name>/cpus/<cpu-id>/mgmtime:
      Accumulated number of microseconds during which a physical
      CPU was assigned to the logical cpu and the cpu time was
      consumed by the hypervisor and was not provided to
      the LPAR (LPAR overhead).
      
      - systems/<lpar-name>/cpus/<cpu-id>/cputime:
      Accumulated number of microseconds during which a physical CPU
      was assigned to the logical cpu and the cpu time was consumed
      by the LPAR.
      
      - systems/<lpar-name>/cpus/<cpu-id>/onlinetime:
      Accumulated number of microseconds during which the logical CPU
      has been online.
      
      As mount point for the filesystem /sys/hypervisor/s390 is created.
      
      The update process is triggered when writing 'something' into the
      'update' file at the top level hypfs directory. You can do this e.g.
      with 'echo 1 > update'. During the update the whole directory structure
      is deleted and built up again.
