It's *wrong* to have #define log2(n) ffz(~(n)) It should be *reversed*: #define log2(n) flz(~(n)) or #define log2(n) fls(n) or just use ilog2(n) defined in linux/log2.h. This patch follows the last solution, recommended by Andrew Morton.

Driver for the CompactFlash slot on the PA Semi Electra eval board. It's a simple device sitting on localbus, with interrupts and detect/voltage control over GPIO. The driver is implemented as an of_platform driver, and adds localbus as a bus being probed by the of_platform framework.

fs/proc/mmu.c consists of only one function which uses only: 1) struct vmalloc_info * 2) struct vm_struct * 3) struct vmalloc_info 4) vmlist 5) VMALLOC_TOTAL, VMALLOC_START, VMALLOC_END 6) read_lock, read_unlock 7) vmlist_lock 8) struct vm_struct This gives us linux/spinlock.h, asm/pgtable.h, "internal.h", linux/vmalloc.h. asm/pgtable.h uses PKMAP_BASE on i386, for which asm/highmem.h is needed. But, linux/highmem.h is actually used to make it compile everywhere. I'll deal later with this particular i386 surprise. Cross-compile tested on many archs and configs. Signed-off-by:

do_poll() checks signal_pending() but returns 0 when interrupted. This means the caller has to check signal_pending() again. Change it to return -EINTR when signal_pending() and count == 0. Signed-off-by:

Cleanup. Lessens both the source and compiled code (100 bytes) and imho makes the code much more understandable. With this patch "struct poll_list *head" always points to on-stack stack_pps, so we can remove all "is it on-stack" and "was it initialized" checks. Also, move poll_initwait/poll_freewait and -EINTR detection closer to the do_poll()'s callsite. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix warning (size_t != uint)] Signed-off-by:

This memcpy looks so strange, in fact it's merely a pointer dereference, so I change the parameter's type to refer it more directly, this could make the memcpy not needed anymore. In the function nbd_read_stat where nbd_find_request is only once called, the parameter served should be transformed accordingly. Signed-off-by:

DECLARE_MUTEX_LOCKED was used for semaphores used as completions and we've got rid of them. Well, except for one in libusual that the maintainer explicitly wants to keep as semaphore. So convert that useage to an explicit sema_init and kill of DECLARE_MUTEX_LOCKED so that new code is reminded to use a completion. Signed-off-by:

The Synchronous Serial Controller (SSC) on Atmel microprocessors are capable of tranceiving many frame based protocols, like I2S. Tested on the AT32AP7000/ATSTK1000. This driver is used in the ALSA sound driver for the AT73C213 external DAC on the ATSTK1000 development board for AVR32. This sound driver will be submitted soon.

Control the trigger limit for softlockup warnings. This is useful for debugging softlockups, by lowering the softlockup_thresh to identify possible softlockups earlier. This patch: 1. Adds a sysctl softlockup_thresh with valid values of 1-60s (Higher value to disable false positives) 2. Changes the softlockup printk to print the cpu softlockup time [akpm@linux-foundation.org: Fix various warnings and add definition of "two"] Signed-off-by:

With the new format we know that it's at a specific place in sys_prctl(). [which was where i created an artificial kernel lockup to test the new format.] This is also useful if the lockup happens in user-space - the user-space EIP (and other registers) will be printed too. (such a lockup would either suggest that the task was running at SCHED_FIFO:99 and looping for more than 10 seconds, or that the softlockup detector has a false-positive.) The task name is printed too first, just in case we dont manage to print a useful backtrace. [satyam@infradead.org: fix warning] Signed-off-by:

(!) print_timestamp defaults to 0, this makes the following condition always true: if (print_timestamp < (touch_timestamp + 1) || and we'll in essence never report soft lockups. apparently the functionality of the soft lockup watchdog was never actually tested with that patch applied ...

Turns out that compiler writers are a bit more aggressive about optimizing than one might expect. This patch prevents a number of such optimizations from messing up rcu_deference(). This is not merely a theoretical problem, as evidenced by the rmb() in mce_log(). Signed-off-by:

Switch single-linked binfmt formats list to usual list_head's. This leads to one-liners in register_binfmt() and unregister_binfmt(). The downside is one pointer more in struct linux_binfmt.

zone->lock is quite an "inner" lock and mostly constrained to page alloc as well, so like slab locks, it probably isn't something that is critically important to document here. However unlike slab locks, zone lock could be used more widely in future, and page_alloc.c might possibly have more business to do tricky things with pagecache than does slab. So... I don't think it hurts to document it. Signed-off-by:

Introduces new zone flag interface for testing and setting flags: int zone_test_and_set_flag(struct zone *zone, zone_flags_t flag) Instead of setting and clearing ZONE_RECLAIM_LOCKED each time shrink_zone() is called, this flag is test and set before starting zone reclaim. Zone reclaim starts in __alloc_pages() when a zone's watermark fails and the system is in zone_reclaim_mode. If it's already in reclaim, there's no need to start again so it is simply considered full for that allocation attempt. There is a change of behavior with regard to concurrent zone shrinking. It is now possible for try_to_free_pages() or kswapd to already be shrinking a particular zone when __alloc_pages() starts zone reclaim. In this case, it is possible for two concurrent threads to invoke shrink_zone() for a single zone. This change forbids a zone to be in zone reclaim twice, which was always the behavior, but allows for concurrent try_to_free_pages() or kswapd shrinking when starting zone reclaim.

There's no reason to sleep in try_set_zone_oom() or clear_zonelist_oom() if the lock can't be acquired; it will be available soon enough once the zonelist scanning is done. All other threads waiting for the OOM killer are also contingent on the exiting task being able to acquire the lock in clear_zonelist_oom() so it doesn't make sense to put it to sleep.
