      [PATCH] Add support for the sys_vmsplice syscall · 912d35f8
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      sys_splice() moves data to/from pipes with a file input/output. sys_vmsplice()
      moves data to a pipe, with the input being a user address range instead.
      
      This uses an approach suggested by Linus, where we can hold partial ranges
      inside the pages[] map. Hopefully this will be useful for network
      receive support as well.

      [PATCH] splice: add support for sys_tee() · 70524490
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      Basically an in-kernel implementation of tee, which uses splice and the
      pipe buffers as an intelligent way to pass data around by reference.
      
      Where the user space tee consumes the input and produces a stdout and
      file output, this syscall merely duplicates the data inside a pipe to
      another pipe. No data is copied, the output just grabs a reference to the
      input pipe data.

      [PATCH] Introduce sys_splice() system call · 5274f052
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      This adds support for the sys_splice system call. Using a pipe as a
      transport, it can connect to files or sockets (latter as output only).
      
      From the splice.c comments:
      
         "splice": joining two ropes together by interweaving their strands.
      
         This is the "extended pipe" functionality, where a pipe is used as
         an arbitrary in-memory buffer. Think of a pipe as a small kernel
         buffer that you can use to transfer data from one end to the other.
      
         The traditional unix read/write is extended with a "splice()" operation
         that transfers data buffers to or from a pipe buffer.
      
         Named by Larry McVoy, original implementation from Linus, extended by
         Jens to support splicing to files and fixing the initial implementation
         bugs.

      [PATCH] Swap Migration V5: sys_migrate_pages interface · 39743889
      Christoph Lameter 提交于
      sys_migrate_pages implementation using swap based page migration
      
      This is the original API proposed by Ray Bryant in his posts during the first
      half of 2005 on linux-mm@kvack.org and linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org.
      
      The intent of sys_migrate is to migrate memory of a process.  A process may
      have migrated to another node.  Memory was allocated optimally for the prior
      context.  sys_migrate_pages allows to shift the memory to the new node.
      
      sys_migrate_pages is also useful if the processes available memory nodes have
      changed through cpuset operations to manually move the processes memory.  Paul
      Jackson is working on an automated mechanism that will allow an automatic
      migration if the cpuset of a process is changed.  However, a user may decide
      to manually control the migration.
      
      This implementation is put into the policy layer since it uses concepts and
      functions that are also needed for mbind and friends.  The patch also provides
      a do_migrate_pages function that may be useful for cpusets to automatically
      move memory.  sys_migrate_pages does not modify policies in contrast to Ray's
      implementation.
      
      The current code here is based on the swap based page migration capability and
      thus is not able to preserve the physical layout relative to it containing
      nodeset (which may be a cpuset).  When direct page migration becomes available
      then the implementation needs to be changed to do a isomorphic move of pages
      between different nodesets.  The current implementation simply evicts all
      pages in source nodeset that are not in the target nodeset.
      
      Patch supports ia64, i386 and x86_64.

      [PATCH] Update cfq io scheduler to time sliced design · 22e2c507
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      This updates the CFQ io scheduler to the new time sliced design (cfq
      v3).  It provides full process fairness, while giving excellent
      aggregate system throughput even for many competing processes.  It
      supports io priorities, either inherited from the cpu nice value or set
      directly with the ioprio_get/set syscalls.  The latter closely mimic
      set/getpriority.
      
      This import is based on my latest from -mm.
