This changes the microsecond RTT sampling so that samples are taken in the same way that RTT samples are taken for the RTO calculator: on the last segment acknowledged, and only when the segment hasn't been retransmitted.

[SPARC64]: Kill bogus check from bootmem_init(). There is an ancient and totally incorrect sanity check being done on the ramdisk location. The check assumes that the kernel is always loaded to physical address zero, which is wrong. It was trying to validate the ramdisk value by saying that if it fell within the kernel image address range it must be wrong. Anyways, kill this because it actually creates problems. The 'ramdisk_image' should always be adjusted down by KERNBASE. SILO can easily put the ramdisk in a location which causes this test to trigger, breaking things.

Unfortunately, sparc64 doesn't have an easy way to do a "64 X 64 --> 128" bit multiply like PowerPC and IA64 do. We were doing a "64 X 64 --> 64" bit multiple which causes overflow very quickly with a 30-bit quotient shift. So use a quotientshift count of 10 instead of 30, just like x86 and ARM do. This also fixes the wrapping of printk timestamp values every ~17 seconds. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

The v4l2 API documentation for VIDIOC_ENUMSTD says: To enumerate all standards applications shall begin at index zero, incrementing by one until the driver returns EINVAL. The actual code, however, tests the index this way: if (index<=0 || index >= vfd->tvnormsize) { ret=-EINVAL; So any application which passes in index=0 gets EINVAL right off the bat - and, in fact, this is what happens to mplayer. So I think the following patch is called for, and maybe even appropriate for a 2.6.18.x stable release.

Invoking load_module() before param_sysfs_init() is called crashes in mod_sysfs_setup(), since the kset in module_subsys is not initialized yet. In my case, net-pf-1 is getting modprobed as a result of hotplug trying to create a UNIX socket. Calls to hotplug begin after the topology_init initcall. Another patch for the same symptom (module_subsys-initialize-earlier.patch) moves param_sysfs_init() to the subsys initcalls, but this is still not early enough in the boot process in some cases. In particular, topology_init() causes /sbin/hotplug to run, which requests net-pf-1 (the UNIX socket protocol) which can be compiled as a module. Moving param_sysfs_init() to the postcore initcalls fixes this particular race, but there might well be other cases where a usermodehelper causes a module to load earlier still. The patch makes load_module() return an error rather than crashing the kernel if invoked before module_subsys is initialized.

Assume that a cpu is *physically* offlined at boot time... Because smpboot.c::smp_boot_cpu_map() canoot find cpu's sapicid, numa.c::build_cpu_to_node_map() cannot build cpu<->node map for offlined cpu. For such cpus, cpu_to_node map should be fixed at cpu-hot-add. This mapping should be done before cpu onlining. This patch also handles cpu hotremove case.

Problem description: We have additional_cpus= option for allocating possible_cpus. But nid for possible cpus are not fixed at boot time. cpus which is offlined at boot or cpus which is not on SRAT is not tied to its node. This will cause panic at cpu onlining. Usually, pxm_to_nid() mapping is fixed at boot time by SRAT. But, unfortunately, some system (my system!) do not include full SRAT table for possible cpus. (Then, I use additiona_cpus= option.) For such possible cpus, pxm<->nid should be fixed at hot-add. We now have acpi_map_pxm_to_node() which is also used at boot. It's suitable here.

Ulrich Weigand found a bug with the current version of the asm-powerpc/ptrace.h that prevents building at least the SPU target version of gdb, since some ptrace opcodes are not defined. The problem seems to have originated in the merging of 32 and 64 bit versions of that file, the problem is that some opcodes are only valid on 64 bit kernels, but are also used by 32 bit programs, so they can't depends on the __powerpc64__ symbol.

The sky2 driver will hang if transmit flow control is enabled and it receives a pause frame. The pause frame gets partially processed by hardware but never makes it through to the correct logic. This patch made it into 2.6.17 stable, but never got accepted for 2.6.18, so it will have to go into 2.6.18.1 See also: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6839Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=0ff38490c836dc379ff7ec45b10a15a662f4e5f6 Currently one can enable slab reclaim by setting an explicit option in /proc/sys/vm/zone_reclaim_mode. Slab reclaim is then used as a final option if the freeing of unmapped file backed pages is not enough to free enough pages to allow a local allocation. However, that means that the slab can grow excessively and that most memory of a node may be used by slabs. We have had a case where a machine with 46GB of memory was using 40-42GB for slab. Zone reclaim was effective in dealing with pagecache pages. However, slab reclaim was only done during global reclaim (which is a bit rare on NUMA systems). This patch implements slab reclaim during zone reclaim. Zone reclaim occurs if there is a danger of an off node allocation. At that point we 1. Shrink the per node page cache if the number of pagecache pages is more than min_unmapped_ratio percent of pages in a zone. 2. Shrink the slab cache if the number of the nodes reclaimable slab pages (patch depends on earlier one that implements that counter) are more than min_slab_ratio (a new /proc/sys/vm tunable). The shrinking of the slab cache is a bit problematic since it is not node specific. So we simply calculate what point in the slab we want to reach (current per node slab use minus the number of pages that neeed to be allocated) and then repeately run the global reclaim until that is unsuccessful or we have reached the limit. I hope we will have zone based slab reclaim at some point which will make that easier. The default for the min_slab_ratio is 5% Also remove the slab option from /proc/sys/vm/zone_reclaim_mode.
