Commit c4caa778 ("file ->get_unmapped_area() shouldn't duplicate work of get_unmapped_area()") broke SYSV SHM for NOMMU by taking away the pointer to shm_get_unmapped_area() from shm_file_operations. Put it back conditionally on CONFIG_MMU=n. file->f_ops->get_unmapped_area() is used to find out the base address for a mapping of a mappable chardev device or mappable memory-based file (such as a ramfs file). It needs to be called prior to file->f_ops->mmap() being called. Signed-off-by:

Current mem_cgroup_force_empty() only ensures mem->res.usage == 0 on success. But this doesn't guarantee memcg's LRU is really empty, because there are some cases in which !PageCgrupUsed pages exist on memcg's LRU. For example: - Pages can be uncharged by its owner process while they are on LRU. - race between mem_cgroup_add_lru_list() and __mem_cgroup_uncharge_common(). So there can be a case in which the usage is zero but some of the LRUs are not empty. OTOH, mem_cgroup_del_lru_list(), which can be called asynchronously with rmdir, accesses the mem_cgroup, so this access can cause a problem if it races with rmdir because the mem_cgroup might have been freed by rmdir. Actually, I saw a bug which seems to be caused by this race.

The problem here is pages on LRU may contain pointer to stale memcg. To make res->usage to be 0, all pages on memcg must be uncharged or moved to another(parent) memcg. Moved page_cgroup have already removed from original LRU, but uncharged page_cgroup contains pointer to memcg withou PCG_USED bit. (This asynchronous LRU work is for improving performance.) If PCG_USED bit is not set, page_cgroup will never be added to memcg's LRU. So, about pages not on LRU, they never access stale pointer. Then, what we have to take care of is page_cgroup _on_ LRU list. This patch fixes this problem by making mem_cgroup_force_empty() visit all LRUs before exiting its loop and guarantee there are no pages on its LRU. Signed-off-by:

Commit f50de2d3 (vmscan: have kswapd sleep for a short interval and double check it should be asleep) can cause kswapd to enter an infinite loop if running on a single-CPU system. If all zones are unreclaimble, sleeping_prematurely return 1 and kswapd will call balance_pgdat() again. but it's totally meaningless, balance_pgdat() doesn't anything against unreclaimable zone!

Add BUILD_BUG_ON_NOT_POWER_OF_2() When code relies on a constant being a power of 2: #define FOO 512 /* must be a power of 2 */ it would be nice to be able to do: BUILD_BUG_ON(!is_power_of_2(FOO)); However applying an inline function does not result in a compile-time constant that can be used with BUILD_BUG_ON(), so trying that gives results in: error: bit-field '<anonymous>' width not an integer constant As suggested by akpm, rather than monkeying around with is_power_of_2() and risking gcc warts about constant expressions, just create a macro BUILD_BUG_ON_NOT_POWER_OF_2() to encapsulate this common requirement.

Andi Kleen authored
Right now for kfifo_*_user it's not easily possible to distingush between a user copy failing and the FIFO not containing enough data. The problem is that both conditions are multiplexed into the same return code. Avoid this by moving the "copy length" into a separate output parameter and only return 0/-EFAULT in the main return value. I didn't fully adapt the weird "record" variants, those seem to be unused anyways and were rather messy (should they be just removed?) I would appreciate some double checking if I did all the conversions correctly. Signed-off-by:

The m68knommu coldfire pit clocksource looks like it was incorrectly marked as a continuous clocksource. Running with it marked as a continuous clocksource could cause hangs when the system switches to highres mode or enables nohz. This patch removes the CLOCK_SOURCE_IS_CONTINUOUS flag on the coldfire pit clocksource. This will disallow systems using this clocksource from entering oneshot mode (disabling highres timers and nohz). Signed-off-by:

inotify will WARN() if it finds that the idr and the fsnotify internals somehow got out of sync. It was only supposed to do this once but due to this stupid bug it would warn every single time a problem was detected. Signed-off-by:

Since commit 7e790dd5 ("inotify: fix error paths in inotify_update_watch") inotify changed the manor in which it gave watch descriptors back to userspace. Previous to this commit inotify acted like the following: inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1 inotify_rm_watch(X, 1); inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 2 but after this patch inotify would return watch descriptors like so: inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1 inotify_rm_watch(X, 1); inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1 which I saw as equivalent to opening an fd where open(file) = 1; close(1); open(file) = 1; seemed perfectly reasonable. The issue is that quite a bit of userspace apparently relies on the behavior in which watch descriptors will not be quickly reused. KDE relies on it, I know some selinux packages rely on it, and I have heard complaints from other random sources such as debian bug 558981. Although the man page implies what we do is ok, we broke userspace so this patch almost reverts us to the old behavior. It is still slightly racey and I have patches that would fix that, but they are rather large and this will fix it for all real world cases. The race is as follows: - task1 creates a watch and blocks in idr_new_watch() before it updates the hint. - task2 creates a watch and updates the hint. - task1 updates the hint with it's older wd - task removes the watch created by task2 - task adds a new watch and will reuse the wd originally given to task2 it requires moving some locking around the hint (last_wd) but this should solve it for the real world and be -stable safe. As a side effect this patch papers over a bug in the lib/idr code which is causing a large number WARN's to pop on people's system and many reports in kerneloops.org. I'm working on the root cause of that idr bug seperately but this should make inotify immune to that issue. Signed-off-by:

Original DP mode_valid check didn't take pixel color depth into account, which made one 1600x900 eDP panel's mode check invalid because of overclock, but actually this 6bpc panel does can work with x1 lane at 2.7G. This one trys to take bpp value properly both in mode validation and mode setting. Signed-off-by:

Many platform support this feature, and it can provide significant power savings when the reduced refresh rate is low. However, on some platforms a secondary (reduced) timing is provided but not actually supported by the hardware. This results in undesirable flicker at runtime. So disable the feature by default, but allow users to opt-in to the reduced clock behavior with a new module parameter, lvds_downclock, that can be set to 1 to enable the feature. Signed-off-by:

On Ironlake, there is an interrupt master control bit. With the bit disabled before clearing IIR, we do not need to handle extra interrupt in a loop. This patch removes the loop in Ironlake interrupt handler. It fixed irq lost issue on some Ironlake platforms. Cc: Stable Team <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by:
