      [PATCH] Fix kerneldoc comments in mm/vmalloc.c · ead04089
      Rolf Eike Beer 提交于
      The empty line between the short description and the first argument
      description causes a section to appear twice in the generated manpage.
      Also the short description should really be short: the script can't handle
      multiple lines.

      Implement the special memory driver (mspec) based on the do_no_pfn
      approach.  The driver is currently used only on SN2 hardware with special
      fetchop support but could be beneficial on other architectures using the

      [PATCH] do_no_pfn() · f4b81804
      Jes Sorensen 提交于
      Implement do_no_pfn() for handling mapping of memory without a struct page
      backing it.  This avoids creating fake page table entries for regions which
      are not backed by real memory.
      
      This feature is used by the MSPEC driver and other users, where it is
      highly undesirable to have a struct page sitting behind the page (for
      instance if the page is accessed in cached mode via the struct page in
      parallel to the the driver accessing it uncached, which can result in data
      corruption on some architectures, such as ia64).
      
      This version uses specific NOPFN_{SIGBUS,OOM} return values, rather than
      expect all negative pfn values would be an error.  It also bugs on cow
      mappings as this would not work with the VM.

      [PATCH] GFP_THISNODE for the slab allocator · 765c4507
      Christoph Lameter 提交于
      This patch insures that the slab node lists in the NUMA case only contain
      slabs that belong to that specific node.  All slab allocations use
      GFP_THISNODE when calling into the page allocator.  If an allocation fails
      then we fall back in the slab allocator according to the zonelists appropriate
      for a certain context.
      
      This allows a replication of the behavior of alloc_pages and alloc_pages node
      in the slab layer.
      
      Currently allocations requested from the page allocator may be redirected via
      cpusets to other nodes.  This results in remote pages on nodelists and that in
      turn results in interrupt latency issues during cache draining.  Plus the slab
      is handing out memory as local when it is really remote.
      
      Fallback for slab memory allocations will occur within the slab allocator and
      not in the page allocator.  This is necessary in order to be able to use the
      existing pools of objects on the nodes that we fall back to before adding more
      pages to a slab.
      
      The fallback function insures that the nodes we fall back to obey cpuset
      restrictions of the current context.  We do not allocate objects from outside
      of the current cpuset context like before.
      
      Note that the implementation of locality constraints within the slab allocator
      requires importing logic from the page allocator.  This is a mischmash that is
      not that great.  Other allocators (uncached allocator, vmalloc, huge pages)
      face similar problems and have similar minimal reimplementations of the basic
      fallback logic of the page allocator.  There is another way of implementing a
      slab by avoiding per node lists (see modular slab) but this wont work within
      the existing slab.
      
      V1->V2:
      - Use NUMA_BUILD to avoid #ifdef CONFIG_NUMA
      - Exploit GFP_THISNODE being 0 in the NON_NUMA case to avoid another
        #ifdef

      [PATCH] Condense output of show_free_areas() · c7241913
      Jes Sorensen 提交于
      On larger systems, the amount of output dumped on the console when you do
      SysRq-M is beyond insane.  This patch is trying to reduce it somewhat as
      even with the smaller NUMA systems that have hit the desktop this seems to
      be a fair thing to do.
      
      The philosophy I have taken is as follows:
       1) If a zone is empty, don't tell, we don't need yet another line
          telling us so. The information is available since one can look up
          the fact how many zones were initialized in the first place.
       2) Put as much information on a line is possible, if it can be done
          in one line, rahter than two, then do it in one. I tried to format
          the temperature stuff for easy reading.
      
      Change show_free_areas() to not print lines for empty zones.  If no zone
      output is printed, the zone is empty.  This reduces the number of lines
      dumped to the console in sysrq on a large system by several thousand lines.
      
      Change the zone temperature printouts to use one line per CPU instead of
      two lines (one hot, one cold).  On a 1024 CPU, 1024 node system, this
      reduces the console output by over a million lines of output.
      
      While this is a bigger problem on large NUMA systems, it is also applicable
      to smaller desktop sized and mid range NUMA systems.

      [PATCH] slab: fix kmalloc_node applying memory policies if nodeid == numa_node_id() · de3083ec
      Christoph Lameter 提交于
      kmalloc_node() falls back to ___cache_alloc() under certain conditions and
      at that point memory policies may be applied redirecting the allocation
      away from the current node.  Therefore kmalloc_node(...,numa_node_id()) or
      kmalloc_node(...,-1) may not return memory from the local node.
      
      Fix this by doing the policy check in __cache_alloc() instead of
      ____cache_alloc().
      
      This version here is a cleanup of Kiran's patch.
      
      - Tested on ia64.
      - Extra material removed.

      This moves the definition of struct page from mm.h to its own header file
      page-struct.h.  This is a prereq to fix SetPageUptodate which is broken on
      s390:
      
      #define SetPageUptodate(_page)
             do {
                     struct page *__page = (_page);

                             page_test_and_clear_dirty(_page);
             } while (0)
      
      _page gets used twice in this macro which can cause subtle bugs.  Using
      __page for the page_test_and_clear_dirty call doesn't work since it causes
      yet another problem with the page_test_and_clear_dirty macro as well.
      
      In order to avoid all these problems caused by macros it seems to be a good
      idea to get rid of them and convert them to static inline functions.
      Because of header file include order it's necessary to have a seperate
      header file for the struct page definition.

      [PATCH] Allow an arch to expand node boundaries · fb01439c

      Arch-independent zone-sizing determines the size of a node
      (pgdat->node_spanned_pages) based on the physical memory that was
      registered by the architecture.  However, when

      spanned_pages will be much larger and that mem_map will be allocated that
      is used lated on memory hot-add.
      
      This patch allows an architecture that sets CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_RESERVE
      to call push_node_boundaries() which will set the node beginning and end to
      at *least* the requested boundary.

      if they wish to account for a portion of memory in ZONE_DMA as a hole.

      [PATCH] Introduce mechanism for registering active regions of memory · c713216d
      Mel Gorman 提交于
      At a basic level, architectures define structures to record where active
      ranges of page frames are located.  Once located, the code to calculate zone
      sizes and holes in each architecture is very similar.  Some of this zone and
      hole sizing code is difficult to read for no good reason.  This set of patches
      eliminates the similar-looking architecture-specific code.
      
      The patches introduce a mechanism where architectures register where the
      active ranges of page frames are with add_active_range().  When all areas have
      been discovered, free_area_init_nodes() is called to initialise the pgdat and
      zones.  The zone sizes and holes are then calculated in an architecture
      independent manner.
      
      Patch 1 introduces the mechanism for registering and initialising PFN ranges
      Patch 2 changes ppc to use the mechanism - 139 arch-specific LOC removed
      Patch 3 changes x86 to use the mechanism - 136 arch-specific LOC removed
      Patch 4 changes x86_64 to use the mechanism - 74 arch-specific LOC removed
      Patch 5 changes ia64 to use the mechanism - 52 arch-specific LOC removed
      Patch 6 accounts for mem_map as a memory hole as the pages are not reclaimable.
      	It adjusts the watermarks slightly
      
      Tony Luck has successfully tested for ia64 on Itanium with tiger_defconfig,
      gensparse_defconfig and defconfig.  Bob Picco has also tested and debugged on
      IA64.  Jack Steiner successfully boot tested on a mammoth SGI IA64-based
      machine.  These were on patches against 2.6.17-rc1 and release 3 of these
      patches but there have been no ia64-changes since release 3.
      
      There are differences in the zone sizes for x86_64 as the arch-specific code
      for x86_64 accounts the kernel image and the starting mem_maps as memory holes
      but the architecture-independent code accounts the memory as present.
      
      The big benefit of this set of patches is a sizable reduction of
      architecture-specific code, some of which is very hairy.  There should be a
      greater reduction when other architectures use the same mechanisms for zone
      and hole sizing but I lack the hardware to test on.

      This patch:
      
      Define the structure to represent an active range of page frames within a node
      in an architecture independent manner.  Architectures are expected to register
      active ranges of PFNs using add_active_range(nid, start_pfn, end_pfn) and call
      free_area_init_nodes() passing the PFNs of the end of each zone.

      [PATCH] ext3: wrong error behavior · 7543fc7b
      Vasily Averin 提交于
      SWsoft Virtuozzo/OpenVZ Linux kernel team has discovered that ext3 error
      behavior was broken in linux kernels since 2.5.x versions by the following
      patch:
      
      2002/10/31 02:15:26-05:00 tytso@snap.thunk.org
      Default mount options from superblock for ext2/3 filesystems
      http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.6/gnupatch@3dc0d88eKbV9ivV4ptRNM8fBuA3JBQ
      
      In case ext3 file system is mounted with errors=continue
      (EXT3_ERRORS_CONTINUE) errors should be ignored when possible.  However at
      present in case of any error kernel aborts journal and remounts filesystem
      to read-only.  Such behavior was hit number of times and noted to differ
      from that of 2.4.x kernels.
      
      This patch fixes this:
      - do nothing in case of EXT3_ERRORS_CONTINUE,
      - set EXT3_MOUNT_ABORT and call journal_abort() in all other cases
      - panic() should be called after ext3_commit_super() to save
       sb marked as EXT3_ERROR_FS

      [PATCH] JBD: 16T fixes · 37ed3222
      Eric Sandeen 提交于
      These are a few places I've found in jbd that look like they may not be
      16T-safe, or consistent with the use of unsigned longs for block
      containers.  Problems here would be somewhat hard to hit, would require
      journal blocks past the 8T boundary, which would not be terribly common.
      Still, should fix.
      
      (some of these have come from the ext4 work on jbd as well).
      
      I think there's one more possibility that the wrap() function may not be
      safe IF your last block in the journal butts right up against the 232 block
      boundary, but that seems like a VERY remote possibility, and I'm not
      worrying about it at this point.

      [PATCH] fix ext3 mounts at 16T · 855565e8
      Eric Sandeen 提交于
      I need to do some actual IO testing now, but this gets things mounting for
      a 16T ext3 filesystem.  (patched up e2fsprogs is needed too, I'll send that
      off the kernel list)
      
      This patch fixes these issues in the kernel:
      
      o sbi->s_groups_count overflows in ext3_fill_super()
      
      	sbi->s_groups_count = (le32_to_cpu(es->s_blocks_count) -
      			       le32_to_cpu(es->s_first_data_block) +
      			       EXT3_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb) - 1) /
      			      EXT3_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb);
      
        at 16T, s_blocks_count is already maxed out; adding
        EXT3_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb) overflows it and groups_count comes out to 0.
        Not really what we want, and causes a failed mount.
      
        Feel free to check my math (actually, please do!), but changing it this
        way should work & avoid the overflow:
      
        (A + B - 1)/B changed to: ((A - 1)/B) + 1
      
      o ext3_check_descriptors() overflows range checks
      
        ext3_check_descriptors() iterates over all block groups making sure
        that various bits are within the right block ranges...  on the last pass
        through, it is checking the error case
      
         [item] >= block + EXT3_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb)
      
        where "block" is the first block in the last block group.  The last
        block in this group (and the last one that will fit in 32 bits) is block
        + EXT3_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb)- 1.  block + EXT3_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb) wraps
        back around to 0.
      
        so, make things clearer with "first_block" and "last_block" where those
        are first and last, inclusive, and use <, > rather than <, >=.
      
        Finally, the last block group may be smaller than the rest, so account
        for this on the last pass through: last_block = sb->s_blocks_count - 1;
      
      (a similar patch could be done for ext2; does anyone in their right mind
      use ext2 at 16T?  I'll send an ext2 patch doing the same thing if that's
      warranted)
