The only special handling NUMA needs to do for hotadd memory is determining the node for the hotadd memory given the address of it and there's nothing specific to specific config method used. srat_64.c does somewhat elaborate error checking on ACPI_SRAT_MEM_HOT_PLUGGABLE regions, remembers them and implements memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() which determines the node for given hotadd address. This is almost completely redundant. All the information is already available to the generic NUMA code which already performs all the sanity checking and merging. All that's necessary is not using __initdata from numa_meminfo and providing a function which uses it to map address to node. Drop the specific implementation from srat_64.c and add generic memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() in numa_64.c, which is enabled if CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG is set. Other than dropping the code, srat_64.c doesn't need any change as it already calls numa_add_memblk() for hot pluggable regions which is enough. While at it, change CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_SPARSE in srat_64.c to CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG, for NUMA on x86-64, the two are always the same.

numa_cleanup_meminfo() trims each memblk between low (0) and high (max_pfn) limits and discards empty ones. However, the emptiness detection incorrectly used equality test. If the start of a memblk is higher than max_pfn, it is empty but fails the equality test and doesn't get discarded. The condition triggers when max_pfn is lower than start of a NUMA node and results in memory misconfiguration - leading to WARN_ON()s and other funnies. The bug was discovered in devel branch where 32bit too uses this code path for NUMA init. If a node is above the addressing limit, max_pfn ends up lower than the node triggering this problem. The failure hasn't been observed on x86-64 but is still possible with broken hardware e820/NUMA info. As the fix is very low risk, it would be better to apply it even for 64bit. Fix it by using >= instead of ==.

Older AMD K8 processors (Revisions A-E) are affected by erratum 400 (APIC timer interrupts don't occur in C states greater than C1). This, for example, means that X86_FEATURE_ARAT flag should not be set for these parts. This addresses regression introduced by commit b87cf80a ("x86, AMD: Set ARAT feature on AMD processors") where the system may become unresponsive until external interrupt (such as keyboard input) occurs. This results, for example, in time not being reported correctly, lack of progress on the system and other lockups.

If a rescuer and stop_machine() bringing down a CPU race with each other, they may deadlock on non-preemptive kernel. The CPU won't accept a new task, so the rescuer can't migrate to the target CPU, while stop_machine() can't proceed because the rescuer is holding one of the CPU retrying migration. GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED is never cleared and worker_maybe_bind_and_lock() retries indefinitely. This problem can be reproduced semi reliably while the system is entering suspend. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1122051 A lot of kudos to Thilo-Alexander for reporting this tricky issue and painstaking testing. stable: This affects all kernels with cmwq, so all kernels since and including v2.6.36 need this fix.

Sedat and Bruno reported RCU stalls which turned out to be caused by the following; sched_init() calls init_rt_bandwidth() which calls hrtimer_init() _BEFORE_ hrtimers_init() is called. While not entirely correct this worked because hrtimer_init() only accessed statically initialized data (hrtimer_bases.clock_base[CLOCK_MONOTONIC]) Commit e06383db (hrtimers: extend hrtimer base code to handle more then 2 clockids) added an indirection to the hrtimer_bases.clock_base lookup to avoid gap handling in the hot path. The table which is used for the translataion from CLOCK_ID to HRTIMER_BASE index is initialized at runtime in hrtimers_init(). So the early call of the scheduler code translates CLOCK_MONOTONIC to HRTIMER_BASE_REALTIME. Thus the rt_bandwith timer ends up on CLOCK_REALTIME. If the timer is armed and the wall clock time is set (e.g. ntpdate in the early boot process - which also gives the problem deterministic behaviour i.e. magic recovery after N hours), then the timer ends up with an expiry time far into the future. That breaks the RT throttler mechanism as rt runtime is accumulated and never cleared, so the rt throttler detects a false cpu hog condition and blocks all RT tasks until the timer finally expires. That in turn stalls the RCU thread of TINYRCU which leads to an huge amount of RCU callbacks piling up. Make the translation table statically initialized, so we are back to the status of <= 2.6.39.

While tracking down the reason for an ioremap() failure I was distracted by the WARN_ONCE() in __ioremap_caller(). Performing a WARN_ONCE() sanity check before the mapping is successful seems pointless if the caller sends bad values. A case in point is when the BIOS provides erroneous screen_info values causing vesafb_probe() to request an outrageuous size. The WARN_ONCE is then wasted on bogosity. Move the warning to a point where the mapping has been successfully allocated.

With transparent hugepage support, handle_mm_fault() has to be careful that a normal PMD has been established before handling a PTE fault. To achieve this, it used __pte_alloc() directly instead of pte_alloc_map as pte_alloc_map is unsafe to run against a huge PMD. pte_offset_map() is called once it is known the PMD is safe. pte_alloc_map() is smart enough to check if a PTE is already present before calling __pte_alloc but this check was lost. As a consequence, PTEs may be allocated unnecessarily and the page table lock taken. Thi useless PTE does get cleaned up but it's a performance hit which is visible in page_test from aim9. This patch simply re-adds the check normally done by pte_alloc_map to check if the PTE needs to be allocated before taking the page table lock. The effect is noticable in page_test from aim9.

Since 569b846d ("memcg: coalesce uncharge during unmap/truncate"), we do batched (delayed) uncharge at truncation/unmap. And since cdec2e42(memcg: coalesce charging via percpu storage), we have percpu cache for res_counter. These changes improved performance of memory cgroup very much, but made res_counter->usage usually have a bigger value than the actual value of memory usage. So, *.usage_in_bytes, which show res_counter->usage, are not desirable for precise values of memory(and swap) usage anymore. Instead of removing these files completely(because we cannot know res_counter->usage without them), this patch updates the meaning of those files.

The huge_memory.c THP page fault was allowed to run if vm_ops was null (which would succeed for /dev/zero MAP_PRIVATE, as the f_op->mmap wouldn't setup a special vma->vm_ops and it would fallback to regular anonymous memory) but other THP logics weren't fully activated for vmas with vm_file not NULL (/dev/zero has a not NULL vma->vm_file). So this removes the vm_file checks so that /dev/zero also can safely use THP (the other albeit safer approach to fix this bug would have been to prevent the THP initial page fault to run if vm_file was set). After removing the vm_file checks, this also makes huge_memory.c stricter in khugepaged for the DEBUG_VM=y case. It doesn't replace the vm_file check with a is_pfn_mapping check (but it keeps checking for VM_PFNMAP under VM_BUG_ON) because for a is_cow_mapping() mapping VM_PFNMAP should only be allowed to exist before the first page fault, and in turn when vma->anon_vma is null (so preventing khugepaged registration). So I tend to think the previous comment saying if vm_file was set, VM_PFNMAP might have been set and we could still be registered in khugepaged (despite anon_vma was not NULL to be registered in khugepaged) was too paranoid. The is_linear_pfn_mapping check is also I think superfluous (as described by comment) but under DEBUG_VM it is safe to stay.

Azurit reports large increases in system time after 2.6.36 when running Apache. It was bisected down to a892e2d7 ("vfs: use kmalloc() to allocate fdmem if possible"). That patch caused the vfs to use kmalloc() for very large allocations and this is causing excessive work (and presumably excessive reclaim) within the page allocator. Fix it by falling back to vmalloc() earlier - when the allocation attempt would have been considered "costly" by reclaim.

We use io_apic_setup_irq_pin() in order to configure pin's interrupt number polarity and type. This is done on every irq_create_of_mapping() which happens for instance during pci enable calls. Level typed interrupts are masked by default, edge are unmasked. On the first ->xlate() call the level interrupt is configured and masked. The driver calls request_irq() and the line is unmasked. Lets assume the interrupt line is shared with another device and we call pci_enable_device() for this device. The ->xlate() configures the pin again and it is masked. request_irq() does not unmask the line because it _is_ already unmasked according to its internal state. So the interrupt will never be unmasked again. This patch is based on an earlier work by Torben Hohn and solves the problem by configuring the pin only once. Since all devices must agree on the same type and polarity there is no point in configuring the pin more than once.

We call rtc_read_alarm from rtc_device_register, so it is important that the rtc device is fully initialized prior to registration. rtc-max8925 sets drvdata after register, so the rtc_read_alarm code dereferences a NULL pointer. Call dev_set_drvdata before rtc_device_register.
