      cpuset: fix a regression in validating config change · 1c09b195
      Li Zefan authored
      It's not allowed to clear masks of a cpuset if there're tasks in it,
      but it's broken:
      
        # mkdir /cgroup/sub
        # echo 0 > /cgroup/sub/cpuset.cpus
        # echo 0 > /cgroup/sub/cpuset.mems
        # echo $$ > /cgroup/sub/tasks
        # echo > /cgroup/sub/cpuset.cpus
        (should fail)
      
      This bug was introduced by commit 88fa523b
      ("cpuset: allow to move tasks to empty cpusets").
      
      tj: Dropped temp bool variables and nestes the conditionals directly.

      cgroup: replace task_cgroup_path_from_hierarchy() with task_cgroup_path() · 913ffdb5
      Tejun Heo authored
      task_cgroup_path_from_hierarchy() was added for the planned new users
      and none of the currently planned users wants to know about multiple
      hierarchies.  This patch drops the multiple hierarchy part and makes
      it always return the path in the first non-dummy hierarchy.
      
      As unified hierarchy will always have id 1, this is guaranteed to
      return the path for the unified hierarchy if mounted; otherwise, it
      will return the path from the hierarchy which happens to occupy the
      lowest hierarchy id, which will usually be the first hierarchy mounted
      after boot.

      cgroup: remove bcache_subsys_id which got added stealthily · add0c59d
      Tejun Heo authored
      cafe5635 ("bcache: A block layer cache") added a new cgroup
      subsystem bcache_subsys without proper review and ack.  bcache_subsys
      seems to use cgroup for group stats and per-group cache_mode
      configuration.  This is very much the type of usage that we don't want
      to allow.
      
      Fortunately, CONFIG_CGROUP_BCACHE which enables bcache_subsys is
      currently commented out, so this shouldn't have any upstream users.
      Let's nip in the bud.  While at it, clarify in cgroup_subsys.h that no
      new subsystem should be added without explicit acks from cgroup
      maintainers.

      I was reviewing code which I suspected might allocate a zero size SG

      doing the memset or we could end up using uninitialized memory in the

      scsi_debug: fix do_device_access() with wrap around range · a4517511
      Akinobu Mita authored
      do_device_access() is a function that abstracts copying SG list from/to
      ramdisk storage (fake_storep).
      
      It must deal with the ranges exceeding actual fake_storep size, because
      such ranges are valid if virtual_gb is set greater than zero, and they
      should be treated as fake_storep is repeatedly mirrored up to virtual
      size.
      
      Unfortunately, it can't deal with the range which wraps around the end of
      fake_storep.  A wrap around range is copied by two
      sg_copy_{from,to}_buffer() calls, but sg_copy_{from,to}_buffer() can't
      copy from/to in the middle of SG list, therefore the second call can't
      copy correctly.
      
      This fixes it by using sg_pcopy_{from,to}_buffer() that can copy from/to
      the middle of SG list.
      
      This also simplifies the assignment of sdb->resid in
      fill_from_dev_buffer().  Because fill_from_dev_buffer() is now only called
      once per command execution cycle.  So it is not necessary to take care to
      decrease sdb->resid if fill_from_dev_buffer() is called more than once.

      lib/scatterlist: factor out sg_miter_get_next_page() from sg_miter_next() · 11052004
      Akinobu Mita authored
      This patchset introduces sg_pcopy_from_buffer() and sg_pcopy_to_buffer(),
      which copy data between a linear buffer and an SG list.
      
      The only difference between sg_pcopy_{from,to}_buffer() and
      sg_copy_{from,to}_buffer() is an additional argument that specifies the
      number of bytes to skip the SG list before copying.
      
      The main reason for introducing these functions is to fix a problem in
      scsi_debug module.  And there is a local function in crypto/talitos
      module, which can be replaced by sg_pcopy_to_buffer().
      
      This patch:
      
      sg_miter_get_next_page() is used to proceed page iterator to the next page
      if necessary, and will be used to implement the variants of
      sg_copy_{from,to}_buffer() later.

      This patchset is for supporting LZ4 compression and the crypto API using
      it.
      
      As shown below, the size of data is a little bit bigger but compressing
      speed is faster under the enabled unaligned memory access.  We can use
      lz4 de/compression through crypto API as well.  Also, It will be useful
      for another potential user of lz4 compression.

      Two APIs are added:
      
      lz4_compress() support basic lz4 compression whereas lz4hc_compress()
      support high compression or CPU performance get lower but compression
      ratio get higher.  Also, we require the pre-allocated working memory with
      the defined size and destination buffer must be allocated with the size of

      - UA: Unaligned memory Access support
      - Latest patch set for LZO applied
      
      This patch set is for adding support for LZ4-compressed Kernel.  LZ4 is a
      very fast lossless compression algorithm and it also features an extremely
      fast decoder [1].
      
      But we have five of decompressors already and one question which does
      arise, however, is that of where do we stop adding new ones?  This issue
      had been discussed and came to the conclusion [2].
      
      Russell King said that we should have:
      
       - one decompressor which is the fastest
       - one decompressor for the highest compression ratio
       - one popular decompressor (eg conventional gzip)
      
      If we have a replacement one for one of these, then it should do exactly
      that: replace it.
      
      The benchmark shows that an 8% increase in image size vs a 66% increase
      in decompression speed compared to LZO(which has been known as the
      fastest decompressor in the Kernel).  Therefore the "fast but may not be
      small" compression title has clearly been taken by LZ4 [3].

      partitions/msdos: enumerate also AIX LVM partitions · f8f06603
      Philippe De Muyter authored
      Graft AIX partitions enumeration into partitions/msdos.c
      
      There is already a AIX disks detection logic in msdos.c.  When an AIX disk
      has been found, and if configured to, call the aix partitions recognizer.
      This avoids removal of AIX disks protection from msdos.c, avoids code
      duplication, and ensures that AIX partitions enumeration is called before
      plain msdos partitions enumeration.

      partitions: add aix lvm partition support files · 6ceea22b
      Philippe De Muyter authored
      Add partitions/aix.h and partitions/aix.c.
      
      AIX LVM permits to make "logical volumes" which are made of multiple
      slices of multiple disks.  The new code allows only access to the
      "logical volumes" which are made of one slice on the probed disk, a
      slice being a contiguous disk area.  The code also detects "logical
      volumes" made of multiple slices on the probed disk, but can not
      describe them to the partition layer, because the partition layer
      generic code does not support that.  When such non-contiguous "logical
      volumes" are detected, a diagnostic message is printed.

      It leaks stack information from the mwave_ioctl() function.
      
      I've added a memset() to initialize the struct to zero.

      Manfred Spraul authored
      Cleanup: Some minor points that I noticed while writing the previous
      patches
      
      1) The name try_atomic_semop() is misleading: The function performs the
         operation (if it is possible).
      
      2) Some documentation updates.
      
      No real code change, a rename and documentation changes.

      ipc/sem.c: replace shared sem_otime with per-semaphore value · d12e1e50
      Manfred Spraul authored
      sem_otime contains the time of the last semaphore operation that
      completed successfully.  Every operation updates this value, thus access
      from multiple cpus can cause thrashing.
      
      Therefore the patch replaces the variable with a per-semaphore variable.
      The per-array sem_otime is only calculated when required.
      
      No performance improvement on a single-socket i3 - only important for
      larger systems.
