The swap code already uses synchronous discards, no need to add I/O barriers. This fixes the worst of the terrible slowdown in swap allocation for hibernation, reported on 2.6.35 by Nigel Cunningham; but does not entirely eliminate that regression.

Move the hibernation check from scan_swap_map() into try_to_free_swap(): to catch not only the common case when hibernation's allocation itself triggers swap reuse, but also the less likely case when concurrent page reclaim (shrink_page_list) might happen to try_to_free_swap from a page. Hibernation already clears __GFP_IO from the gfp_allowed_mask, to stop reclaim from going to swap: check that to prevent swap reuse too. Signed-off-by:

Please revert 2.6.36-rc commit d2997b10 "hibernation: freeze swap at hibernation". It complicated matters by adding a second swap allocation path, just for hibernation; without in any way fixing the issue that it was intended to address - page reclaim after fixing the hibernation image might free swap from a page already imaged as swapcache, letting its swap be reallocated to store a different page of the image: resulting in data corruption if the imaged page were freed as clean then swapped back in. Pages freed to si->swap_map were still in danger of being reallocated by the alternative allocation path. I guess it inadvertently fixed slow SSD swap allocation for hibernation, as reported by Nigel Cunningham: by missing out the discards that occur on the usual swap allocation path; but that was unintentional, and needs a separate fix.

I have been seeing problems on Tegra 2 (ARMv7 SMP) systems with HIGHMEM enabled on 2.6.35 (plus some patches targetted at 2.6.36 to perform cache maintenance lazily), and the root cause appears to be that the mm bouncing code is calling flush_dcache_page before it copies the bounce buffer into the bio. The bounced page needs to be flushed after data is copied into it, to ensure that architecture implementations can synchronize instruction and data caches if necessary. Signed-off-by:

Replace the arbitrary software-reset call from the device-probe method, because: - It is defective. To work correctly, it should be two byte writes, not a single word write. As it stands, it does nothing. - Some devices with sx150x expanders installed have their NRESET pins ganged on the same line, so resetting one causes the others to reset - not a nice thing to do arbitrarily! - The probe, usually taking place at boot, implies a recent hard-reset, so a software reset at this point is just a waste of energy anyway. Therefore, make it optional, defaulting to off, as this will match the common case of probing at powerup and also matches the current broken no-op behavior. Signed-off-by:

Iram reported that compaction's too_many_isolated() loops forever. (http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg08123.html) The meminfo when the situation happened was inactive anon is zero. That's because the system has no memory pressure until then. While all anon pages were in the active lru, compaction could select active lru as well as inactive lru. That's a different thing from vmscan's isolated. So we has been two too_many_isolated. While compaction can isolate pages in both active and inactive, current implementation of too_many_isolated only considers inactive. It made Iram's problem. This patch handles active and inactive fairly. That's because we can't expect where from and how many compaction would isolated pages. This patch changes (nr_isolated > nr_inactive) with nr_isolated > (nr_active + nr_inactive) / 2. Signed-off-by:

Commit 74641f58 ("alpha: binfmt_aout fix") (May 2009) introduced a regression - binfmt_misc is now consulted after binfmt_elf, which will unfortunately break ia32el. ia32 ELF binaries on ia64 used to be matched using binfmt_misc and executed using wrapper. As 32bit binaries are now matched by binfmt_elf before bindmt_misc kicks in, the wrapper is ignored. The fix increases precedence of binfmt_misc to the original state. Signed-off-by:

COMPACTION enables MIGRATION, but MIGRATION spawns a warning if numa or memhotplug aren't selected. However MIGRATION doesn't depend on them. I guess it's just trying to be strict doing a double check on who's enabling it, but it doesn't know that compaction also enables MIGRATION. Signed-off-by:

The pte_same check is reliable only if the swap entry remains pinned (by the page lock on swapcache). We've also to ensure the swapcache isn't removed before we take the lock as try_to_free_swap won't care about the page pin. One of the possible impacts of this patch is that a KSM-shared page can point to the anon_vma of another process, which could exit before the page is freed. This can leave a page with a pointer to a recycled anon_vma object, or worse, a pointer to something that is no longer an anon_vma. [riel@redhat.com: changelog help] Signed-off-by:

If suspend called when kmmcd is doing host->ops->disable, as kmmcd already increased host->en_dis_recurs to 1, the mmc_host_enable in suspend function will return directly without increase the nesting_cnt, which will cause the followed register access carried out to the disabled host. mmc_suspend_host will enable host itself. No need to enable host before it. Also works on kmmcd will get flushed in mmc_suspend_host, enable host after it will be safe. So make the mmc_host_enable after it.

Previously, it was possible for ack_mmc_irqs() to clear pending interrupt bits in the CTL_STATUS register, even though the interrupt handler had not been called. This was because of a race that existed when doing a read-modify-write sequence on CTL_STATUS. After the read step in this sequence, if an interrupt occurred (causing one of the bits in CTL_STATUS to be set) the write step would inadvertently clear it. Observed with the TMIO_STAT_RXRDY bit together with CMD53 on AR6002 and BCM4318 SDIO cards in polled mode. This patch eliminates this race by only writing to CTL_STATUS and clearing the interrupts that were passed as an argument to ack_mmc_irqs()."

Add cgroup_attach_task_all() The existing cgroup_attach_task_current_cg() API is called by a thread to attach another thread to all of its cgroups; this is unsuitable for cases where a privileged task wants to attach itself to the cgroups of a less privileged one, since the call must be made from the context of the target task. This patch adds a more generic cgroup_attach_task_all() API that allows both the source task and to-be-moved task to be specified. cgroup_attach_task_current_cg() becomes a specialization of the more generic new function.

The gcov-kernel infrastructure expects that each object file is loaded only once. This may not be true, e.g. when loading multiple kernel modules which are linked to the same object file. As a result, loading such kernel modules will result in incorrect gcov results while unloading will cause a null-pointer dereference. This patch fixes these problems by changing the gcov-kernel infrastructure so that multiple profiling data sets can be associated with one debugfs entry. It applies to 2.6.36-rc1. Signed-off-by:

commit c2c6ca41 (direct-io: do not merge logically non-contiguous requests) introduced a bug whereby all O_DIRECT I/Os were submitted a page at a time to the block layer. The problem is that the code expected dio->block_in_file to correspond to the current page in the dio. In fact, it corresponds to the previous page submitted via submit_page_section. This was purely an oversight, as the dio->cur_page_fs_offset field was introduced for just this purpose. This patch simply uses the correct variable when calculating whether there is a mismatch between contiguous logical blocks and contiguous physical blocks (as described in the comments). I also switched the if conditional following this check to an else if, to ensure that we never call dio_bio_submit twice for the same dio (in theory, this should not happen, anyway). I've tested this by running blktrace and verifying that a 64KB I/O was submitted as a single I/O. I also ran the patched kernel through xfstests' aio tests using xfs, ext4 (with 1k and 4k block sizes) and btrfs and verified that there were no regressions as compared to an unpatched kernel.

Much (but not all) of the RTC state is kept in the RTC peripheral which has its own power domain. Periodically (1 HZ), that state is synced from one power domain to the other (peripheral->core). When we are resuming, we need to wait for the sync to occur so that we don't get a mismatch of reading undefined state in the rest of the driver. Further, once the externally maintained bits have been synced back into the core, we then need to restore the bits maintained in the core. In our particular case, that is just the write completion interrupt bit. If we don't do any of this, working with the RTC causes ~5 second delays from time to time after waking up due to the write completion interrupt never firing. Reported-by:

The introduction of support for SD combo cards breaks the initialization of all CSR SDIO chips. The GO_IDLE (CMD0) in mmc_sd_get_cid() causes CSR chips to be reset (this is non-standard behavior). When initializing an SDIO card check for a combo card by using the memory present bit in the R4 response to IO_SEND_OP_COND (CMD5). This avoids the call to mmc_sd_get_cid() on an SDIO-only card.
