Pull exofs raid6 support from Boaz Harrosh: "These simple patches will enable raid6 using the kernel's raid6_pq engine for support under exofs and pnfs-objects. There is nothing needed to do at exofs and pnfs-obj. Just fire your mkfs.exofs with --raid=6 (that was already supported before) and off you go as usual. The ORE will pick up the new map and will start writing two devices of redundancy bits. The patches are so simple because most of the ORE was already for the general raid case, only a few bug fixes were needed and the actual wiring into the raid6_pq engine" * 'for-linus' of git://git.open-osd.org/linux-open-osd: ore: Support for raid 6 ore: Remove redundant dev_order(), more cleanups ore: (trivial) reformat some code

Commit 788257d6 ("ufs: remove the BKL") replaced BKL with mutex protection using functions lock_ufs, unlock_ufs and struct mutex 'mutex' in sb_info. Commit b6963327 ("ufs: drop lock/unlock super") removed lock/unlock super and added struct mutex 's_lock' in sb_info. Those 2 mutexes are generally locked/unlocked at the same time except in allocation (balloc, ialloc). This patch merges the 2 mutexes and propagates first commit solution. It also adds mutex destruction before kfree during ufs_fill_super failure and ufs_put_super. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: avoid ifdefs, return -EROFS not -EINVAL] Signed-off-by:

printk is meant to be used with an associated log level. There are some instances of printk scattered around the mm code where the log level is missing. Add a log level and adhere to suggestions by scripts/checkpatch.pl by moving to the pr_* macros. Also add the typical pr_fmt definition so that print statements can be easily traced back to the modules where they occur, correlated one with another, etc. This will require the removal of some (now redundant) prefixes on a few print statements.

The remap_file_pages() system call is used to create a nonlinear mapping, that is, a mapping in which the pages of the file are mapped into a nonsequential order in memory. The advantage of using remap_file_pages() over using repeated calls to mmap(2) is that the former approach does not require the kernel to create additional VMA (Virtual Memory Area) data structures. Supporting of nonlinear mapping requires significant amount of non-trivial code in kernel virtual memory subsystem including hot paths. Also to get nonlinear mapping work kernel need a way to distinguish normal page table entries from entries with file offset (pte_file). Kernel reserves flag in PTE for this purpose. PTE flags are scarce resource especially on some CPU architectures. It would be nice to free up the flag for other usage. Fortunately, there are not many users of remap_file_pages() in the wild. It's only known that one enterprise RDBMS implementation uses the syscall on 32-bit systems to map files bigger than can linearly fit into 32-bit virtual address space. This use-case is not critical anymore since 64-bit systems are widely available. The plan is to deprecate the syscall and replace it with an emulation. The emulation will create new VMAs instead of nonlinear mappings. It's going to work slower for rare users of remap_file_pages() but ABI is preserved. One side effect of emulation (apart from performance) is that user can hit vm.max_map_count limit more easily due to additional VMAs. See comment for DEFAULT_MAX_MAP_COUNT for more details on the limit. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix spello] Signed-off-by:

Memcg zoneinfo lookup sites have either the page, the zone, or the node id and zone index, but sites that only have the zone have to look up the node id and zone index themselves, whereas sites that already have those two integers use a function for a simple pointer chase. Provide mem_cgroup_zone_zoneinfo() that takes a zone pointer and let sites that already have node id and zone index - all for each node, for each zone iterators - use &memcg->nodeinfo[nid]->zoneinfo[zid]. Rename page_cgroup_zoneinfo() to mem_cgroup_page_zoneinfo() to match. Signed-off-by:

Kmemleak could ignore memory blocks allocated via memblock_alloc() leading to false positives during scanning. This patch adds the corresponding callbacks and removes kmemleak_free_* calls in mm/nobootmem.c to avoid duplication. The kmemleak_alloc() in mm/nobootmem.c is kept since __alloc_memory_core_early() does not use memblock_alloc() directly. Signed-off-by:

Memory reclaim always uses swappiness of the reclaim target memcg (origin of the memory pressure) or vm_swappiness for global memory reclaim. This behavior was consistent (except for difference between global and hard limit reclaim) because swappiness was enforced to be consistent within each memcg hierarchy. After "mm: memcontrol: remove hierarchy restrictions for swappiness and oom_control" each memcg can have its own swappiness independent of hierarchical parents, though, so the consistency guarantee is gone. This can lead to an unexpected behavior. Say that a group is explicitly configured to not swapout by memory.swappiness=0 but its memory gets swapped out anyway when the memory pressure comes from its parent with a It is also unexpected that the knob is meaningless without setting the hard limit which would trigger the reclaim and enforce the swappiness. There are setups where the hard limit is configured higher in the hierarchy by an administrator and children groups are under control of somebody else who is interested in the swapout behavior but not necessarily about the memory limit. From a semantic point of view swappiness is an attribute defining anon vs. file proportional scanning of LRU which is memcg specific (unlike charges which are propagated up the hierarchy) so it should be applied to the particular memcg's LRU regardless where the memory pressure comes from. This patch removes vmscan_swappiness() and stores the swappiness into the scan_control structure. mem_cgroup_swappiness is then used to provide the correct value before shrink_lruvec is called. The global vm_swappiness is used for the root memcg. [hughd@google.com: oopses immediately when booted with cgroup_disable=memory] Signed-off-by:

Some sysrq handlers can run for a long time, because they dump a lot of data onto a serial console. Having RCU stall warnings pop up in the middle of them only makes the problem worse. This patch temporarily disables RCU stall warnings while a sysrq request is handled. Signed-off-by:

Echoing values into /proc/sysrq-trigger seems to be a popular way to get information out of the kernel. However, dumping information about thousands of processes, or hundreds of CPUs to serial console can result in IRQs being blocked for minutes, resulting in various kinds of cascade failures. The most common failure is due to interrupts being blocked for a very long time. This can lead to things like failed IO requests, and other things the system cannot easily recover from. This problem is easily fixable by making __handle_sysrq use RCU instead of spin_lock_irqsave. This leaves the warning that RCU grace periods have not elapsed for a long time, but the system will come back from that automatically. It also leaves sysrq-from-irq-context when the sysrq keys are pressed, but that is probably desired since people want that to work in situations where the system is already hosed. The callers of register_sysrq_key and unregister_sysrq_key appear to be capable of sleeping. Signed-off-by:
