While it's architecturally clean to have the cgroup debug subsystem be completely independent of the cgroups framework, it limits its usefulness for debugging the contents of internal data structures. Move the debug subsystem code into the scope of all the cgroups data structures to make more detailed debugging possible. Signed-off-by:

To simplify referring to cgroup hierarchies in mount statements, and to allow disambiguation in the presence of empty hierarchies and multiply-bindable subsystems this patch adds support for naming a new cgroup hierarchy via the "name=" mount option A pre-existing hierarchy may be specified by either name or by subsystems; a hierarchy's name cannot be changed by a remount operation. Example usage: # To create a hierarchy called "foo" containing the "cpu" subsystem mount -t cgroup -oname=foo,cpu cgroup /mnt/cgroup1 # To mount the "foo" hierarchy on a second location mount -t cgroup -oname=foo cgroup /mnt/cgroup2 Signed-off-by:

In "documentation: update Documentation/filesystem/proc.txt and Documentation/sysctls" (commit 760df93e) we merged /proc/sys/fs documentation in Documentation/sysctl/fs.txt and Documentation/filesystem/proc.txt, but stale file-nr definition remained. This patch adds back the right fs-nr definition for 2.6 kernel. Signed-off-by: Xiaotian Feng<dfeng@redhat.com> Cc: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Signed-off-by:

There are many similar code in kernel for one object: convert time between calendar time and broken-down time. Here is some source I found: fs/ncpfs/dir.c fs/smbfs/proc.c fs/fat/misc.c fs/udf/udftime.c fs/cifs/netmisc.c net/netfilter/xt_time.c drivers/scsi/ips.c drivers/input/misc/hp_sdc_rtc.c drivers/rtc/rtc-lib.c arch/ia64/hp/sim/boot/fw-emu.c arch/m68k/mac/misc.c arch/powerpc/kernel/time.c arch/parisc/include/asm/rtc.h ... We can make a common function for this type of conversion, At least we can get following benefit: 1: Make kernel simple and unify 2: Easy to fix bug in converting code 3: Reduce clone of code in future For example, I'm trying to make ftrace display walltime, this patch will make me easy. This code is based on code from glibc-2.6 Signed-off-by:

Commit 6bfde05b ("hugetlbfs: allow the creation of files suitable for MAP_PRIVATE on the vfs internal mount") altered can_do_hugetlb_shm() to check if a file is being created for shared memory or mmap(). If this returns false, we then unconditionally call user_shm_lock() triggering a warning. This block should never be entered for MAP_HUGETLB. This patch partially reverts the problem and fixes the check. Signed-off-by:

Now that ksm is in mainline it is better to change the default values to better fit to most of the users. This patch change the ksm default values to be: ksm_thread_pages_to_scan = 100 (instead of 200) ksm_thread_sleep_millisecs = 20 (like before) ksm_run = KSM_RUN_STOP (instead of KSM_RUN_MERGE - meaning ksm is disabled by default) ksm_max_kernel_pages = nr_free_buffer_pages / 4 (instead of 2046) The important aspect of this patch is: it disables ksm by default, and sets the number of the kernel_pages that can be allocated to be a reasonable number.

But it selects LEDS_CLASS, which confuses a number of other drivers into thinking that all the leds infrastructure is in place. Fix this by selecting NEW_LEDS as well, like similar drivers do. Eventually, this whole leds infrastructure complexity should be cleaned up, it's been going on for years. Signed-off-by:

This reverts commit c02e3f36 ("kmod: fix race in usermodehelper code") The patch is wrong. UMH_WAIT_EXEC is called with VFORK what ensures that the child finishes prior returing back to the parent. No race. In fact, the patch makes it even worse because it does the thing it claims not do: - It calls ->complete() on UMH_WAIT_EXEC - the complete() callback may de-allocated subinfo as seen in the following call chain: [<c009f904>] (__link_path_walk+0x20/0xeb4) from [<c00a094c>] (path_walk+0x48/0x94) [<c00a094c>] (path_walk+0x48/0x94) from [<c00a0a34>] (do_path_lookup+0x24/0x4c) [<c00a0a34>] (do_path_lookup+0x24/0x4c) from [<c00a158c>] (do_filp_open+0xa4/0x83c) [<c00a158c>] (do_filp_open+0xa4/0x83c) from [<c009ba90>] (open_exec+0x24/0xe0) [<c009ba90>] (open_exec+0x24/0xe0) from [<c009bfa8>] (do_execve+0x7c/0x2e4) [<c009bfa8>] (do_execve+0x7c/0x2e4) from [<c0026a80>] (kernel_execve+0x34/0x80) [<c0026a80>] (kernel_execve+0x34/0x80) from [<c004b514>] (____call_usermodehelper+0x130/0x148) [<c004b514>] (____call_usermodehelper+0x130/0x148) from [<c0024858>] (kernel_thread_exit+0x0/0x8) and the path pointer was NULL. Good that ARM's kernel_execve() doesn't check the pointer for NULL or else I wouldn't notice it. The only race there might be is with UMH_NO_WAIT but it is too late for me to investigate it now. UMH_WAIT_PROC could probably also use VFORK and we could save one exec. So the only race I see is with UMH_NO_WAIT and recent scheduler changes where the child does not always run first might have trigger here something but as I said, it is late.... Signed-off-by:

We're not forcing removal of the old cpu_ functions, but we might as well delete the now-unused ones. Especially CPUMASK_ALLOC and friends. I actually got a phone call (!) from a hacker who thought I had introduced them as the new cpumask API. He seemed bewildered that I had lost all taste. Signed-off-by: -
