Nick Piggin points out that page accounting on MIPS multiple ZERO_PAGEs is not maintained by its move_pte, and could lead to freeing a ZERO_PAGE. Instead of complicating that move_pte, just forget the minor optimization when mremapping, and change the one thing which needed it for correctness - filemap_xip use ZERO_PAGE(0) throughout instead of according to address.

Eric W. Biederman authored
When the world was a simple and static place setting up irqs was easy. It sufficed to allocate a linux irq number and a find a free cpu vector we could receive that linux irq on. In those days it was a safe assumption that any allocated vector was actually in use so after one global pass through all of the vectors we would have none left. These days things are much more dynamic with interrupt controllers (in the form of MSI or MSI-X) appearing on plug in cards and linux irqs appearing and disappearing. As these irqs come and go vectors are allocated and freed, invalidating the ancient assumption that all allocated vectors stayed in use forever. So this patch modifies the vector allocator to walk through every possible vector before giving up, and to check to see if a vector is in use before assigning it. With these changes we stop leaking freed vectors and it becomes possible to allocate and free irq vectors all day long. This changed was modeled after the vector allocator on x86_64 where this limitation has already been removed. In essence we don't update the static variables that hold the position of the last vector we allocated until have successfully allocated another vector. This allows us to detect if we have completed one complete scan through all of the possible vectors. Acked-by: Auke Kok <auke-jan.h.kok@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Eric W.

`make help' in the build tree doesn't show the help texts about the `headers_install' and `headers_check' targets because it looks for include/asm-$(ARCH)/Kbuild in the wrong place. Add the missing `$(srctree)' prefixes to fix this. Also move the printing of the default install path for the headers inside the `if/fi', where it belongs.

During ufs_trunc_direct which is subroutine of ufs::truncate, we try the first of all free parts of block and then whole blocks. But we calculate size of block's part to free in the wrong way. This may cause bad update of used blocks and fragments statistic, and you can got report that you have free 32T on 1Gb partition.

These series of patches result of UFS1 write support stress testing, like running fsx-linux, untar and build linux kernel etc We pass from ufs::get_block_t to levels below: pointer to the current page, to make possible things like reallocation of blocks on the fly, and we also uses this pointer for indication, what actually we allocate data block or meta data block, but currently we make decision about what we allocate on the wrong level, this may and cause oops if we allocate blocks in some special order.

Fix exit race by splitting the nsproxy putting into two pieces. First piece reduces the nsproxy refcount. If we dropped the last reference, then it puts the mnt_ns, and returns the nsproxy as a hint to the caller. Else it returns NULL. The second piece of exiting task namespaces sets tsk->nsproxy to NULL, and drops the references to other namespaces and frees the nsproxy only if an nsproxy was passed in. A little awkward and should probably be reworked, but hopefully it fixes the NFS oops. Signed-off-by: Serge E.

This makes balance_dirty_page() always base its calculations on the amount of non-highmem memory in the machine, rather than try to base it on total memory and then falling back on non-highmem memory if the mapping it was writing wasn't highmem capable. This not only fixes a situation where two different writers can have wildly different notions about what is a "balanced" dirty state, but it also means that people with highmem machines don't run into an OOM situation when regular memory fills up with dirty pages. We used to try to handle the latter case by scaling down the dirty_ratio if the machine had a lot of highmem pages in page_writeback_init(), but it wasn't aggressive enough for some situations, and since basing the dirty ratio on highmem memory was broken in the first place, let's just stop doing so. (A variation of this theme fixed Justin Piszcz's OOM problem when copying an 18GB file on a RAID setup).

Takashi Iwai authored
The recent change for a new sysfs tree with card* object breaks the /sys/class/sound tree if CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is enabled. The device in each entry doesn't point the correct device object: /sys/class/sound ... |-- pcmC0D0c | |-- dev | |-- device -> ../../../class/sound/card0 | |-- pcm_class | |-- power | | `-- wakeup | |-- subsystem -> ../../../class/sound | `-- uevent Also, this change breaks some drivers (like sound/arm/*) referring card->dev directly to obtain the device object for memory handling. This patch reverts the semantics of card->dev to the former version, which points to a real device object. The card* object is stored in a new card->card_dev field, instead. The device parent is chosen either card->dev or card->card_dev according to CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED to keep the tree compatibility. Also, card* isn't created if CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is enabled. The reason of card* object is a root of all beloing devices, and it makes little sense if each sound device points to the real device object directly.

Mirror the logic in the sun4u handler, we have to update both registers even when we branch out to window fault fixup handling. The way it works is that if we are in etrap processing a fault already, g4/g5 holds the original fault information. If we take a window spill fault while doing etrap, then we put the window spill fault info into g4/g5 and this is what the top-level fault handler ends up processing first. Then we retry the originally faulting instruction, and process the original fault at that time. This is all necessary because of how constrained the trap registers are in these code paths. These cases trigger very rarely, so even if there is some performance implication it's doesn't happen very often. In fact the rarity is why it took so long to trigger and find this particular bug.
