David Brownell 7ad68e2f97 regulator: sysfs attribute reduction (v2)
Clean up the sysfs interface to regulators by only exposing the
attributes that can be properly displayed.  For example: when a
particular regulator method is needed to display the value, only
create that attribute when that method exists.

This cleaned-up interface is much more comprehensible.  Most
regulators only support a subset of the possible methods, so
often more than half the attributes would be meaningless.  Many
"not defined" values are no longer necessary.  (But handling
of out-of-range values still looks a bit iffy.)

Documentation is updated to reflect that few of the attributes
are *always* present, and to briefly explain why a regulator may
not have a given attribute.

This adds object code, about a dozen bytes more than was removed
by the preceding patch, but saves a bunch of per-regulator data
associated with the now-removed attributes.  So there's a net
reduction in memory footprint.

Paul Menage 999cd8a450 cgroups: add a per-subsystem hierarchy_mutex
These patches introduce new locking/refcount support for cgroups to
reduce the need for subsystems to call cgroup_lock(). This will
ultimately allow the atomicity of cgroup_rmdir() (which was removed
recently) to be restored.

These three patches give:

1/3 - introduce a per-subsystem hierarchy_mutex which a subsystem can
     use to prevent changes to its own cgroup tree

2/3 - use hierarchy_mutex in place of calling cgroup_lock() in the
     memory controller

3/3 - introduce a css_tryget() function similar to the one recently
      proposed by Kamezawa, but avoiding spurious refcount failures in
      the event of a race between a css_tryget() and an unsuccessful
      cgroup_rmdir()

Future patches will likely involve:

- using hierarchy mutex in place of cgroup_lock() in more subsystems
 where appropriate

- restoring the atomicity of cgroup_rmdir() with respect to cgroup_create()

This patch:

Add a hierarchy_mutex to the cgroup_subsys object that protects changes to
the hierarchy observed by that subsystem.  It is taken by the cgroup
subsystem (in addition to cgroup_mutex) for the following operations:

- linking a cgroup into that subsystem's cgroup tree
- unlinking a cgroup from that subsystem's cgroup tree
- moving the subsystem to/from a hierarchy (including across the
  bind() callback)

Thus if the subsystem holds its own hierarchy_mutex, it can safely
traverse its own hierarchy.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 03f3c43364 memcg: fix swap accounting leak
Fix swapin charge operation of memcg.

Now, memcg has hooks to swap-out operation and checks SwapCache is really
unused or not.  That check depends on contents of struct page.  I.e.  If
PageAnon(page) && page_mapped(page), the page is recoginized as
still-in-use.

Now, reuse_swap_page() calles delete_from_swap_cache() before establishment
of any rmap. Then, in followinig sequence

	(Page fault with WRITE)
	try_charge() (charge += PAGESIZE)
	commit_charge() (Check page_cgroup is used or not..)
	reuse_swap_page()
		-> delete_from_swapcache()
			-> mem_cgroup_uncharge_swapcache() (charge -= PAGESIZE)
	......
New charge is uncharged soon....
To avoid this,  move commit_charge() after page_mapcount() goes up to 1.
By this,

	try_charge()		(usage += PAGESIZE)
	reuse_swap_page()	(may usage -= PAGESIZE if PCG_USED is set)
	commit_charge()		(If page_cgroup is not marked as PCG_USED,
				 add new charge.)
Accounting will be correct.

Changelog (v2) -> (v3)
  - fixed invalid charge to swp_entry==0.
  - updated documentation.
Changelog (v1) -> (v2)
  - fixed comment.

Currently, /proc/sys/vm/swappiness can change swappiness ratio for global
reclaim.  However, memcg reclaim doesn't have tuning parameter for itself.

In general, the optimal swappiness depend on workload.  (e.g.  hpc
workload need to low swappiness than the others.)

Then, per cgroup swappiness improve administrator tunability.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 8c7c6e34a1 memcg: mem+swap controller core
This patch implements per cgroup limit for usage of memory+swap.  However
there are SwapCache, double counting of swap-cache and swap-entry is
avoided.

Mem+Swap controller works as following.
  - memory usage is limited by memory.limit_in_bytes.
  - memory + swap usage is limited by memory.memsw_limit_in_bytes.

This has following benefits.
  - A user can limit total resource usage of mem+swap.

    Without this, because memory resource controller doesn't take care of
    usage of swap, a process can exhaust all the swap (by memory leak.)
    We can avoid this case.

    And Swap is shared resource but it cannot be reclaimed (goes back to memory)
    until it's used. This characteristic can be trouble when the memory
    is divided into some parts by cpuset or memcg.
    Assume group A and group B.
    After some application executes, the system can be..

    Group A -- very large free memory space but occupy 99% of swap.
    Group B -- under memory shortage but cannot use swap...it's nearly full.

    Ability to set appropriate swap limit for each group is required.

Maybe someone wonder "why not swap but mem+swap ?"

  - The global LRU(kswapd) can swap out arbitrary pages. Swap-out means
    to move account from memory to swap...there is no change in usage of
    mem+swap.

    In other words, when we want to limit the usage of swap without affecting
    global LRU, mem+swap limit is better than just limiting swap.

Accounting target information is stored in swap_cgroup which is
per swap entry record.

Charge is done as following.
  map
    - charge  page and memsw.

  unmap
    - uncharge page/memsw if not SwapCache.

  swap-out (__delete_from_swap_cache)
    - uncharge page
    - record mem_cgroup information to swap_cgroup.

  swap-in (do_swap_page)
    - charged as page and memsw.
      record in swap_cgroup is cleared.
      memsw accounting is decremented.

  swap-free (swap_free())
    - if swap entry is freed, memsw is uncharged by PAGE_SIZE.

There are people work under never-swap environments and consider swap as
something bad. For such people, this mem+swap controller extension is just an
overhead.  This overhead is avoided by config or boot option.
(see Kconfig. detail is not in this patch.)

TODO:
 - maybe more optimization can be don in swap-in path. (but not very safe.)
   But we just do simple accounting at this stage.

Config and control variable for mem+swap controller.

This patch adds CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP
(memory resource controller swap extension.)

For accounting swap, it's obvious that we have to use additional memory to
remember "who uses swap".  This adds more overhead.  So, it's better to
offer "choice" to users.  This patch adds 2 choices.

This patch adds 2 parameters to enable swap extension or not.
  - CONFIG
  - boot option

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki d13d144309 memcg: handle swap caches
SwapCache support for memory resource controller (memcg)

Before mem+swap controller, memcg itself should handle SwapCache in proper
way.  This is cut-out from it.

In current memcg, SwapCache is just leaked and the user can create tons of
SwapCache.  This is a leak of account and should be handled.

SwapCache accounting is done as following.

  charge (anon)
	- charged when it's mapped.
	  (because of readahead, charge at add_to_swap_cache() is not sane)
  uncharge (anon)
	- uncharged when it's dropped from swapcache and fully unmapped.
	  means it's not uncharged at unmap.
	  Note: delete from swap cache at swap-in is done after rmap information
	        is established.
  charge (shmem)
	- charged at swap-in. this prevents charge at add_to_page_cache().

  uncharge (shmem)
	- uncharged when it's dropped from swapcache and not on shmem's
	  radix-tree.

  at migration, check against 'old page' is modified to handle shmem.

Comparing to the old version discussed (and caused troubles), we have
advantages of
  - PCG_USED bit.
  - simple migrating handling.

So, situation is much easier than several months ago, maybe.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki c1e862c1f5 memcg: new force_empty to free pages under group
By memcg-move-all-accounts-to-parent-at-rmdir.patch, there is no leak of
memory usage and force_empty is removed.

This patch adds "force_empty" again, in reasonable manner.

memory.force_empty file works when

  #echo 0 (or some) > memory.force_empty
  and have following function.

  1. only works when there are no task in this cgroup.
  2. free all page under this cgroup as much as possible.
  3. page which cannot be freed will be moved up to parent.
  4. Then, memcg will be empty after above echo returns.

This is much better behavior than old "force_empty" which just forget
all accounts. This patch also check signal_pending() and above "echo"
can be stopped by "Ctrl-C".

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki f817ed4853 memcg: move all acccounting to parent at rmdir()
This patch provides a function to move account information of a page
between mem_cgroups and rewrite force_empty to make use of this.

This moving of page_cgroup is done under
 - lru_lock of source/destination mem_cgroup is held.
 - lock_page_cgroup() is held.

Then, a routine which touches pc->mem_cgroup without lock_page_cgroup()
should confirm pc->mem_cgroup is still valid or not.  Typical code can be
following.

(while page is not under lock_page())
	mem = pc->mem_cgroup;
	mz = page_cgroup_zoneinfo(pc)
	spin_lock_irqsave(&mz->lru_lock);
	if (pc->mem_cgroup == mem)
		...../* some list handling */
	spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mz->lru_lock);

Of course, better way is
	lock_page_cgroup(pc);
	....
	unlock_page_cgroup(pc);

But you should confirm the nest of lock and avoid deadlock.

If you treats page_cgroup from mem_cgroup's LRU under mz->lru_lock,
you don't have to worry about what pc->mem_cgroup points to.
moved pages are added to head of lru, not to tail.

Expected users of this routine is:
  - force_empty (rmdir)
  - moving tasks between cgroup (for moving account information.)
  - hierarchy (maybe useful.)

force_empty(rmdir) uses this move_account and move pages to its parent.
This "move" will not cause OOM (I added "oom" parameter to try_charge().)

If the parent is busy (not enough memory), force_empty calls try_to_free_page()
and reduce usage.

Purpose of this behavior is
  - Fix "forget all" behavior of force_empty and avoid leak of accounting.
  - By "moving first, free if necessary", keep pages on memory as much as
    possible.

Adding a switch to change behavior of force_empty to
  - free first, move if necessary
  - free all, if there is mlocked/busy pages, return -EBUSY.
is under consideration. (I'll add if someone requtests.)

This patch also removes memory.force_empty file, a brutal debug-only interface.

Paul Mundt dd8632a12e NOMMU: Make mmap allocation page trimming behaviour configurable.
NOMMU mmap allocates a piece of memory for an mmap that's rounded up in size to
the nearest power-of-2 number of pages.  Currently it then discards the excess
pages back to the page allocator, making that memory available for use by other
things.  This can, however, cause greater amount of fragmentation.

To counter this, a sysctl is added in order to fine-tune the trimming
behaviour.  The default behaviour remains to trim pages aggressively, while
this can either be disabled completely or set to a higher page-granular
watermark in order to have finer-grained control.

David Howells 8feae13110 NOMMU: Make VMAs per MM as for MMU-mode linux
Make VMAs per mm_struct as for MMU-mode linux.  This solves two problems:

 (1) In SYSV SHM where nattch for a segment does not reflect the number of
     shmat's (and forks) done.

 (2) In mmap() where the VMA's vm_mm is set to point to the parent mm by an
     exec'ing process when VM_EXECUTABLE is specified, regardless of the fact
     that a VMA might be shared and already have its vm_mm assigned to another
     process or a dead process.

A new struct (vm_region) is introduced to track a mapped region and to remember
the circumstances under which it may be shared and the vm_list_struct structure
is discarded as it's no longer required.

This patch makes the following additional changes:

 (1) Regions are now allocated with alloc_pages() rather than kmalloc() and
     with no recourse to __GFP_COMP, so the pages are not composite.  Instead,
     each page has a reference on it held by the region.  Anything else that is
     interested in such a page will have to get a reference on it to retain it.
     When the pages are released due to unmapping, each page is passed to
     put_page() and will be freed when the page usage count reaches zero.

 (2) Excess pages are trimmed after an allocation as the allocation must be
     made as a power-of-2 quantity of pages.

 (3) VMAs are added to the parent MM's R/B tree and mmap lists.  As an MM may
     end up with overlapping VMAs within the tree, the VMA struct address is
     appended to the sort key.

 (4) Non-anonymous VMAs are now added to the backing inode's prio list.

 (5) Holes may be punched in anonymous VMAs with munmap(), releasing parts of
     the backing region.  The VMA and region structs will be split if
     necessary.

 (6) sys_shmdt() only releases one attachment to a SYSV IPC shared memory
     segment instead of all the attachments at that addresss.  Multiple
     shmat()'s return the same address under NOMMU-mode instead of different
     virtual addresses as under MMU-mode.

 (7) Core dumping for ELF-FDPIC requires fewer exceptions for NOMMU-mode.

 (8) /proc/maps is now the global list of mapped regions, and may list bits
     that aren't actually mapped anywhere.

 (9) /proc/meminfo gains a line (tagged "MmapCopy") that indicates the amount
     of RAM currently allocated by mmap to hold mappable regions that can't be
     mapped directly.  These are copies of the backing device or file if not
     anonymous.

These changes make NOMMU mode more similar to MMU mode.  The downside is that
NOMMU mode requires some extra memory to track things over NOMMU without this
patch (VMAs are no longer shared, and there are now region structs).

Arjan van de Ven e8de1481fd resource: allow MMIO exclusivity for device drivers
Device drivers that use pci_request_regions() (and similar APIs) have a
reasonable expectation that they are the only ones accessing their device.
As part of the e1000e hunt, we were afraid that some userland (X or some
bootsplash stuff) was mapping the MMIO region that the driver thought it
had exclusively via /dev/mem or via various sysfs resource mappings.

This patch adds the option for device drivers to cause their reserved
regions to the "banned from /dev/mem use" list, so now both kernel memory
and device-exclusive MMIO regions are banned.
NOTE: This is only active when CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM is set.

In addition to the config option, a kernel parameter iomem=relaxed is
provided for the cases where developers want to diagnose, in the field,
drivers issues from userspace.

Inaky Perez-Gonzalez 3e91029ae0 i2400m: documentation and instructions for usage
The driver for the i2400m is a stacked driver. There is a core driver,
the bus-generic driver that has no knowledge or dependencies on how
the device is connected to the system; it only knows how to speak the
device protocol. Then there are the bus-specific drivers (for USB and
SDIO) that provide backends for the generic driver to communicate with
the device.

The bus generic driver connects to the network and WiMAX stacks on the
top side, and on the bottom to the bus-specific drivers.

This patch (as1163b) adds a "quirks=" module parameter to usb-storage.
This will allow people to make short-term changes to their
unusual_devs list without rebuilding the entire driver.  Testing will
become much easier, and less-sophisticated users will be able to
access their buggy devices after a simple config-file change instead
of having to wait for a new kernel release.

The patch also adds a documentation entry for usb-storage's
"delay_use" parameter, which has been around for years but but was
never listed among the kernel parameters.

Hidehiro Kawai 4cb0e11b15 coredump_filter: permit changing of the default filter
Introduce a new kernel parameter `coredump_filter'.  Setting a value to
this parameter causes the default bitmask of coredump_filter to be
changed.

It is useful for users to change coredump_filter settings for the whole
system at boot time.  Without this parameter, users have to change
coredump_filter settings for each /proc/<pid>/ in an initializing script.

Masami Hiramatsu e8386a0cb2 kprobes: support probing module __exit function
Allows kprobes to probe __exit routine.  This adds flags member to struct
kprobe.  When module is freed(kprobes hooks module_notifier to get this
event), kprobes which probe the functions in that module are set to "Gone"
flag to the flags member.  These "Gone" probes are never be enabled.
Users can check the GONE flag through debugfs.

This also removes mod_refcounted, because we couldn't free a module if
kprobe incremented the refcount of that module.

Tejun Heo 5f820f648c poll: allow f_op->poll to sleep
f_op->poll is the only vfs operation which is not allowed to sleep.  It's
because poll and select implementation used task state to synchronize
against wake ups, which doesn't have to be the case anymore as wait/wake
interface can now use custom wake up functions.  The non-sleep restriction
can be a bit tricky because ->poll is not called from an atomic context
and the result of accidentally sleeping in ->poll only shows up as
temporary busy looping when the timing is right or rather wrong.

This patch converts poll/select to use custom wake up function and use
separate triggered variable to synchronize against wake up events.  The
only added overhead is an extra function call during wake up and
negligible.

This patch removes the one non-sleep exception from vfs locking rules and
is beneficial to userland filesystem implementations like FUSE, 9p or
peculiar fs like spufs as it's very difficult for those to implement
non-sleeping poll method.

While at it, make the following cosmetic changes to make poll.h and
select.c checkpatch friendly.

* s/type * symbol/type *symbol/		   : three places in poll.h
* remove blank line before EXPORT_SYMBOL() : two places in select.c

Davide: spotted missing write barrier in pollwake()

Hugh Dickins 63d6c5ad7f mm: remove try_to_munlock from vmscan
An unfortunate feature of the Unevictable LRU work was that reclaiming an
anonymous page involved an extra scan through the anon_vma: to check that
the page is evictable before allocating swap, because the swap could not
be freed reliably soon afterwards.

Now try_to_free_swap() has replaced remove_exclusive_swap_page(), that's
not an issue any more: remove try_to_munlock() call from
shrink_page_list(), leaving it to try_to_munmap() to discover if the page
is one to be culled to the unevictable list - in which case then
try_to_free_swap().

Update unevictable-lru.txt to remove comments on the try_to_munlock() in
shrink_page_list(), and shorten some lines over 80 columns.

David Rientjes 2da02997e0 mm: add dirty_background_bytes and dirty_bytes sysctls
This change introduces two new sysctls to /proc/sys/vm:
dirty_background_bytes and dirty_bytes.

dirty_background_bytes is the counterpart to dirty_background_ratio and
dirty_bytes is the counterpart to dirty_ratio.

With growing memory capacities of individual machines, it's no longer
sufficient to specify dirty thresholds as a percentage of the amount of
dirtyable memory over the entire system.

dirty_background_bytes and dirty_bytes specify quantities of memory, in
bytes, that represent the dirty limits for the entire system.  If either
of these values is set, its value represents the amount of dirty memory
that is needed to commence either background or direct writeback.

When a `bytes' or `ratio' file is written, its counterpart becomes a
function of the written value.  For example, if dirty_bytes is written to
be 8096, 8K of memory is required to commence direct writeback.
dirty_ratio is then functionally equivalent to 8K / the amount of
dirtyable memory:

	dirtyable_memory = free pages + mapped pages + file cache

	dirty_background_bytes = dirty_background_ratio * dirtyable_memory
		-or-
	dirty_background_ratio = dirty_background_bytes / dirtyable_memory

		AND

	dirty_bytes = dirty_ratio * dirtyable_memory
		-or-
	dirty_ratio = dirty_bytes / dirtyable_memory

Only one of dirty_background_bytes and dirty_background_ratio may be
specified at a time, and only one of dirty_bytes and dirty_ratio may be
specified.  When one sysctl is written, the other appears as 0 when read.

The `bytes' files operate on a page size granularity since dirty limits
are compared with ZVC values, which are in page units.

Prior to this change, the minimum dirty_ratio was 5 as implemented by
get_dirty_limits() although /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio would show any user
written value between 0 and 100.  This restriction is maintained, but
dirty_bytes has a lower limit of only one page.

Also prior to this change, the dirty_background_ratio could not equal or
exceed dirty_ratio.  This restriction is maintained in addition to
restricting dirty_background_bytes.  If either background threshold equals
or exceeds that of the dirty threshold, it is implicitly set to half the
dirty threshold.

Gary Hade c04fc586c1 mm: show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfs
Show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfs

Add /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/memoryY symlinks for all
the memory sections located on nodeX.  For example:
/sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory135 -> ../../memory/memory135
indicates that memory section 135 resides on node1.

Also revises documentation to cover this change as well as updating
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-memory to include descriptions
of memory hotremove files 'phys_device', 'phys_index', and 'state'
that were previously not described there.

In addition to it always being a good policy to provide users with
the maximum possible amount of physical location information for
resources that can be hot-added and/or hot-removed, the following
are some (but likely not all) of the user benefits provided by
this change.
Immediate:
  - Provides information needed to determine the specific node
    on which a defective DIMM is located.  This will reduce system
    downtime when the node or defective DIMM is swapped out.
  - Prevents unintended onlining of a memory section that was
    previously offlined due to a defective DIMM.  This could happen
    during node hot-add when the user or node hot-add assist script
    onlines _all_ offlined sections due to user or script inability
    to identify the specific memory sections located on the hot-added
    node.  The consequences of reintroducing the defective memory
    could be ugly.
  - Provides information needed to vary the amount and distribution
    of memory on specific nodes for testing or debugging purposes.
Future:
  - Will provide information needed to identify the memory
    sections that need to be offlined prior to physical removal
    of a specific node.

Symlink creation during boot was tested on 2-node x86_64, 2-node
ppc64, and 2-node ia64 systems.  Symlink creation during physical
memory hot-add tested on a 2-node x86_64 system.

This mount option is largely superfluous, and in fact the way it was
implemented was buggy; if a filesystem which did not have the extents
feature flag was mounted -o extents, the filesystem would attempt to
create and use extents-based file even though the extents feature flag
was not eabled.  The simplest thing to do is to nuke the mount option
entirely.  It's not all that useful to force the non-creation of new
extent-based files if the filesystem can support it.

Dan Williams 28405d8d9c async_tx, dmaengine: document channel allocation and api rework
"Wouldn't it be better if the dmaengine layer made sure it didn't pass
the same channel several times to a client?

I mean, you seem concerned that the memcpy() API should be transparent
and easy to use, but the whole registration interface is just
ridiculously complicated..."
	- Haavard

The dmaengine and async_tx registration/allocation interface is indeed
needlessly complicated.  This redesign has the following goals:

1/ Simplify reference counting: dma channels are not something one would
   expect to be hotplugged, it should be an exceptional event handled by
   drivers not something clients should be mandated to handle in a
   callback.  The common case channel removal event is 'rmmod <dma driver>',
   which for simplicity should be disallowed if the channel is in use.
2/ Add an interface for requesting exclusive access to a channel
   suitable to device-to-memory users.
3/ Convert all memory-to-memory users over to a common allocator, the goal
   here is to not have competing channel allocation schemes.  The only
   competition should be between device-to-memory exclusive allocations and
   the memory-to-memory usage case where channels are shared between
   multiple "clients".

Hans Verkuil aecde8b53b V4L/DVB (10141): v4l2: debugging API changed to match against driver name instead of ID.
Since the i2c driver ID will be removed in the near future we have to
modify the v4l2 debugging API to use the driver name instead of driver ID.

Note that this API is not used in applications other than v4l2-dbg.cpp
as it is for debugging and testing only.

Should anyone use the old VIDIOC_G_CHIP_IDENT, then this will be logged
with a warning that it is deprecated and will be removed in 2.6.30.
