      i2c: Driver to expose PowerNV platform i2c busses · 47083450
      Neelesh Gupta 提交于
      The patch exposes the available i2c busses on the PowerNV platform
      to the kernel and implements the bus driver to support i2c and
      smbus commands.
      The driver uses the platform device infrastructure to probe the busses
      on the platform and registers them with the i2c driver framework.

      ipc/msg: increase MSGMNI, remove scaling · 0050ee05
      Manfred Spraul 提交于
      SysV can be abused to allocate locked kernel memory.  For most systems, a
      small limit doesn't make sense, see the discussion with regards to SHMMAX.
      
      Therefore: increase MSGMNI to the maximum supported.
      
      And: If we ignore the risk of locking too much memory, then an automatic
      scaling of MSGMNI doesn't make sense.  Therefore the logic can be removed.
      
      The code preserves auto_msgmni to avoid breaking any user space applications
      that expect that the value exists.
      
      Notes:
      1) If an administrator must limit the memory allocations, then he can set
      MSGMNI as necessary.
      
      Or he can disable sysv entirely (as e.g. done by Android).
      
      2) MSGMAX and MSGMNB are intentionally not increased, as these values are used
      to control latency vs. throughput:
      If MSGMNB is large, then msgsnd() just returns and more messages can be queued
      before a task switch to a task that calls msgrcv() is forced.

      mm/page_owner: keep track of page owners · 48c96a36
      Joonsoo Kim 提交于
      This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago.  It
      is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it
      remain as is.  Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak
      or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature.
      
      This functionality help us to know who allocates the page.  When
      allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra
      memory.  Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and
      analyze it from this stored information.
      
      In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in
      struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of
      struct page.  It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime
      without considerable memory waste.
      
      Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free,
      using it to analyze page owner is rather complex.  We need to enlarge the
      trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched.
      And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later
      analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather
      than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug.
      
      Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes.  For
      example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this
      patch.  And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature
      using this interface.
      
      I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature,
      but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history.  Sorry about that.

      mm/debug-pagealloc: make debug-pagealloc boottime configurable · 031bc574
      Joonsoo Kim 提交于
      Now, we have prepared to avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime.  So
      introduce new kernel-parameter to disable debug-pagealloc in boottime, and
      makes related functions to be disabled in this case.
      
      Only non-intuitive part is change of guard page functions.  Because guard
      page is effective only if debug-pagealloc is enabled, turning off
      according to debug-pagealloc is reasonable thing to do.

      hugetlb: fix hugepages= entry in kernel-parameters.txt · 27ec26ec
      Luiz Capitulino 提交于
      The hugepages= entry in kernel-parameters.txt states that 1GB pages can
      only be allocated at boot time and not freed afterwards.  This is not
      true since commit 944d9fec ("hugetlb: add support for gigantic page
      allocation at runtime"), at least for x86_64.
      
      Instead of adding arch-specifc observations to the hugepages= entry,
      this commit just drops the out of date information.  Further information
      about arch-specific support and available features can be obtained in
      the hugetlb documentation.

      arch: Add lightweight memory barriers dma_rmb() and dma_wmb() · 1077fa36
      Alexander Duyck 提交于
      There are a number of situations where the mandatory barriers rmb() and
      wmb() are used to order memory/memory operations in the device drivers
      and those barriers are much heavier than they actually need to be.  For
      example in the case of PowerPC wmb() calls the heavy-weight sync
      instruction when for coherent memory operations all that is really needed
      is an lsync or eieio instruction.
      
      This commit adds a coherent only version of the mandatory memory barriers
      rmb() and wmb().  In most cases this should result in the barrier being the
      same as the SMP barriers for the SMP case, however in some cases we use a
      barrier that is somewhere in between rmb() and smp_rmb().  For example on
      ARM the rmb barriers break down as follows:
      
        Barrier   Call     Explanation
        --------- -------- ----------------------------------
        rmb()     dsb()    Data synchronization barrier - system
        dma_rmb() dmb(osh) data memory barrier - outer sharable
        smp_rmb() dmb(ish) data memory barrier - inner sharable
      
      These new barriers are not as safe as the standard rmb() and wmb().
      Specifically they do not guarantee ordering between coherent and incoherent
      memories.  The primary use case for these would be to enforce ordering of
      reads and writes when accessing coherent memory that is shared between the
      CPU and a device.
      
      It may also be noted that there is no dma_mb().  Most architectures don't
      provide a good mechanism for performing a coherent only full barrier without
      resorting to the same mechanism used in mb().  As such there isn't much to
      be gained in trying to define such a function.

      pstore-ram: Allow optional mapping with pgprot_noncached · 027bc8b0
      Tony Lindgren 提交于
      On some ARMs the memory can be mapped pgprot_noncached() and still
      be working for atomic operations. As pointed out by Colin Cross
      <ccross@android.com>, in some cases you do want to use
      pgprot_noncached() if the SoC supports it to see a debug printk
      just before a write hanging the system.
      
      On ARMs, the atomic operations on strongly ordered memory are
      implementation defined. So let's provide an optional kernel parameter
      for configuring pgprot_noncached(), and use pgprot_writecombine() by
      default.
