2009-10-01memcg: some modification to softlimit under hierarchical memory reclaim.KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
This patch clean up/fixes for memcg's uncharge soft limit path. Problems: Now, res_counter_charge()/uncharge() handles softlimit information at charge/uncharge and softlimit-check is done when event counter per memcg goes over limit. Now, event counter per memcg is updated only when memory usage is over soft limit. Here, considering hierarchical memcg management, ancesotors should be taken care of. Now, ancerstors(hierarchy) are handled in charge() but not in uncharge(). This is not good. Prolems: 1. memcg's event counter incremented only when softlimit hits. That's bad. It makes event counter hard to be reused for other purpose. 2. At uncharge, only the lowest level rescounter is handled. This is bug. Because ancesotor's event counter is not incremented, children should take care of them. 3. res_counter_uncharge()'s 3rd argument is NULL in most case. ops under res_counter->lock should be small. No "if" sentense is better. Fixes: * Removed soft_limit_xx poitner and checks in charge and uncharge. Do-check-only-when-necessary scheme works enough well without them. * make event-counter of memcg incremented at every charge/uncharge. (per-cpu area will be accessed soon anyway) * All ancestors are checked at soft-limit-check. This is necessary because ancesotor's event counter may never be modified. Then, they should be checked at the same time.

2009-10-01block: allow large discard requestsChristoph Hellwig
Currently we set the bio size to the byte equivalent of the blocks to be trimmed when submitting the initial DISCARD ioctl. That means it is subject to the max_hw_sectors limitation of the HBA which is much lower than the size of a DISCARD request we can support. Add a separate max_discard_sectors tunable to limit the size for discard requests. We limit the max discard request size in bytes to 32bit as that is the limit for bio->bi_size. This could be much larger if we had a way to pass that information through the block layer. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2009-10-01block: use normal I/O path for discard requestsChristoph Hellwig
prepare_discard_fn() was being called in a place where memory allocation was effectively impossible. This makes it inappropriate for all but the most trivial translations of Linux's DISCARD operation to the block command set. Additionally adding a payload there makes the ownership of the bio backing unclear as it's now allocated by the device driver and not the submitter as usual. It is replaced with QUEUE_FLAG_DISCARD which is used to indicate whether the queue supports discard operations or not. blkdev_issue_discard now allocates a one-page, sector-length payload which is the right thing for the common ATA and SCSI implementations. The mtd implementation of prepare_discard_fn() is replaced with simply checking for the request being a discard. Largely based on a previous patch from Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx> which did the prepare_discard_fn but not the different payload allocation yet.

2009-09-28wext: add back wireless/ dir in sysfs for cfg80211 interfacesJohannes Berg
The move away from having drivers assign wireless handlers, in favour of making cfg80211 assign them, broke the sysfs registration (the wireless/ dir went missing) because the handlers are now assigned only after registration, which is too late. Fix this by special-casing cfg80211-based devices, all of which are required to have an ieee80211_ptr, in the sysfs code, and also using get_wireless_stats() to have the same values reported as in procfs.

2009-09-29ext4: Adjust ext4_da_writepages() to write out larger contiguous chunksTheodore Ts'o
Work around problems in the writeback code to force out writebacks in larger chunks than just 4mb, which is just too small. This also works around limitations in the ext4 block allocator, which can't allocate more than 2048 blocks at a time. So we need to defeat the round-robin characteristics of the writeback code and try to write out as many blocks in one inode before allowing the writeback code to move on to another inode. We add a a new per-filesystem tunable, max_writeback_mb_bump, which caps this to a default of 128mb per inode. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

Fix it as per the following Alan's suggestion: Fun but it's actually not a bug and the fix is wrong in itself as the port may be closing but not yet being destructed, in which case it seems to do the wrong thing. Opening a tty that is closing (and could be closing for long periods) is supposed to return -EIO. I suspect a better way to deal with this and keep the old console timing is to split tty->shutdown into two functions. tty->shutdown() - called synchronously just before we dump the tty onto the waitqueue for destruction tty->cleanup() - called when the destructor runs. We would then do the shutdown part which can occur in IRQ context fine, before queueing the rest of the release (from tty->magic = 0 ... the end) to occur asynchronously The USB update in -next would then need a call like if (tty->cleanup) tty->cleanup(tty); at the top of the async function and the USB shutdown to be split between shutdown and cleanup as the USB resource cleanup and final tidy cannot occur synchronously as it needs to sleep. In other words the logic becomes final kref put make object unfindable async clean it up Signed-off-by: Dave Young <hidave.darkstar@gmail.com> [ rjw: Rebased on top of 2.6.31-git, reworked the changelog. ] Signed-off-by: "Rafael J.

2009-09-27Revert "sit: stateless autoconf for isatap"Sascha Hlusiak
This reverts commit 645069299a1c7358cf7330afe293f07552f11a5d. While the code does not actually break anything, it does not completely follow RFC5214 yet. After talking back with Fred L. Templin, I agree that completing the ISATAP specific RS/RA code, would pollute the kernel a lot with code that is better implemented in userspace. The kernel should not send RS packages for ISATAP at all. Signed-off-by: Sascha Hlusiak <contact@saschahlusiak.de> Acked-by: Fred L. Templin <Fred.L.Templin@boeing.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-09-25writeback: pass in super_block to bdi_start_writeback()Jens Axboe
Sometimes we only want to write pages from a specific super_block, so allow that to be passed in. This fixes a problem with commit 56a131dcf7ed36c3c6e36bea448b674ea85ed5bb causing writeback on all super_blocks on a bdi, where we only really want to sync a specific sb from writeback_inodes_sb().

2009-09-25ACPI: remove acpi_device.flags.hardware_idBjorn Helgaas
Every acpi_device has at least one ID (if there's no _HID or _CID, we give it a synthetic or default ID). So there's no longer a need to check whether an ID exists; we can just use it. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2009-09-25ACPI: maintain a single list of _HID and _CID IDsBjorn Helgaas
There's no need to treat _HID and _CID differently. Keeping them in a single list makes code that uses the IDs a little simpler because it can just traverse the list rather than checking "do we have a HID?", "do we have any CIDs?"

2009-09-25ACPI: add acpi_bus_get_status_handle()Bjorn Helgaas
Add acpi_bus_get_status_handle() so we can get the status of a namespace object before building a struct acpi_device. This removes a use of "device->flags.dynamic_status", a cached indicator of whether _STA exists. It seems simpler and more reliable to just evaluate _STA and catch AE_NOT_FOUND errors.

2009-09-25ACPI: identify device tree root by null parent pointer, not ACPI_BUS_TYPEBjorn Helgaas
We can identify the root of the ACPI device tree by the fact that it has no parent. This is simpler than passing around ACPI_BUS_TYPE_SYSTEM and will help remove special treatment of the device tree root. Currently, we add the root by hand with ACPI_BUS_TYPE_SYSTEM. If we traverse the tree treating the root as just another device and use acpi_get_type(), the root shows up as ACPI_TYPE_DEVICE.
