Add a new __GFP_OTHER_NODE flag to tell the low level numa statistics in
zone_statistics() that an allocation is on behalf of another thread. This
way the local and remote counters can be still correct, even when
background daemons like khugepaged are changing memory mappings.
This only affects the accounting, but I think it's worth doing that right
to avoid confusing users.
I first tried to just pass down the right node, but this required a lot of
changes to pass down this parameter and at least one addition of a 10th
argument to a 9 argument function. Using the flag is a lot less
intrusive.
Open: should be also used for migration?

When reclaiming for order-0 pages, kswapd requires that all zones be
balanced. Each cycle through balance_pgdat() does background ageing on
all zones if necessary and applies equal pressure on the inactive zone
unless a lot of pages are free already.
A "lot of free pages" is defined as a "balance gap" above the high
watermark which is currently 7*high_watermark. Historically this was
reasonable as min_free_kbytes was small. However, on systems using huge
pages, it is recommended that min_free_kbytes is higher and it is tuned
with hugeadm --set-recommended-min_free_kbytes. With the introduction of
transparent huge page support, this recommended value is also applied. On
X86-64 with 4G of memory, min_free_kbytes becomes 67584 so one would
expect around 68M of memory to be free. The Normal zone is approximately
35000 pages so under even normal memory pressure such as copying a large
file, it gets exhausted quickly. As it is getting exhausted, kswapd
applies pressure equally to all zones, including the DMA32 zone. DMA32 is
approximately 700,000 pages with a high watermark of around 23,000 pages.
In this situation, kswapd will reclaim around (23000*8 where 8 is the high
watermark + balance gap of 7 * high watermark) pages or 718M of pages
before the zone is ignored. What the user sees is that free memory far
higher than it should be.
To avoid an excessive number of pages being reclaimed from the larger
zones, explicitely defines the "balance gap" to be either 1% of the zone
or the low watermark for the zone, whichever is smaller. While kswapd
will check all zones to apply pressure, it'll ignore zones that meets the
(high_wmark + balance_gap) watermark.
To test this, 80G were copied from a partition and the amount of memory
being used was recorded. A comparison of a patch and unpatched kernel can
be seen at
http://www.csn.ul.ie/~mel/postings/minfree-20110222/memory-usage-hydra.ps
and shows that kswapd is not reclaiming as much memory with the patch
applied.

Right now, if a mm_walk has either ->pte_entry or ->pmd_entry set, it will
unconditionally split any transparent huge pages it runs in to. In
practice, that means that anyone doing a
cat /proc/$pid/smaps
will unconditionally break down every huge page in the process and depend
on khugepaged to re-collapse it later. This is fairly suboptimal.
This patch changes that behavior. It teaches each ->pmd_entry handler
(there are five) that they must break down the THPs themselves. Also, the
_generic_ code will never break down a THP unless a ->pte_entry handler is
actually set.
This means that the ->pmd_entry handlers can now choose to deal with THPs
without breaking them down.

Recently, there are reported problem about thrashing.
(http://marc.info/?l=rsync&m=128885034930933&w=2) It happens by backup
workloads(ex, nightly rsync). That's because the workload makes just
use-once pages and touches pages twice. It promotes the page into active
list so that it results in working set page eviction.
Some app developer want to support POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE. But other OSes
don't support it, either.
(http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=128928979512086&w=2)
By other approach, app developers use POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED. But it has a
problem. If kernel meets page is writing during invalidate_mapping_pages,
it can't work. It makes for application programmer to use it since they
always have to sync data before calling fadivse(..POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED) to
make sure the pages could be discardable. At last, they can't use
deferred write of kernel so that they could see performance loss.
(http://insights.oetiker.ch/linux/fadvise.html)
In fact, invalidation is very big hint to reclaimer. It means we don't
use the page any more. So let's move the writing page into inactive
list's head if we can't truncate it right now.
Why I move page to head of lru on this patch, Dirty/Writeback page would
be flushed sooner or later. It can prevent writeout of pageout which is
less effective than flusher's writeout.
Originally, I reused lru_demote of Peter with some change so added his

Presently we increase the page refcount in add_to_page_cache() but don't
decrease it in remove_from_page_cache(). Such asymmetry adds confusion,
requiring that callers notice it and a comment explaining why they release
a page reference. It's not a good API.
A long time ago, Hugh tried it (http://lkml.org/lkml/2004/10/24/140) but
gave up because reiser4's drop_page() had to unlock the page between
removing it from page cache and doing the page_cache_release(). But now
the situation is changed. I think at least things in current mainline
don't have any obstacles. The problem is for out-of-mainline filesystems
- if they have done such things as reiser4, this patch could be a problem
but they will discover this at compile time since we remove
remove_from_page_cache().
This patch:
This function works as just wrapper remove_from_page_cache(). The
difference is that it decreases page references in itself. So caller have
to make sure it has a page reference before calling.
This patch is ready for removing remove_from_page_cache().

add_to_page_cache_locked(new);
Except it does this atomically, so there's no possibility for the "add" to

If memory cgroups are enabled, then the memory cgroup charge is also moved
from the old page to the new.
This function is currently used by fuse to move pages into the page cache
on read, instead of copying the page contents.

GUP user may want to try to acquire a reference to a page if it is already

The oom killer is extremely verbose for machines with a large number of
cpus and/or nodes. This verbosity can often be harmful if it causes other
important messages to be scrolled from the kernel log and incurs a
signicant time delay, specifically for kernels with CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT >
8.
This patch causes only memory information to be displayed for nodes that
are allowed by current's cpuset when dumping the VM state. Information
for all other nodes is irrelevant to the oom condition; we don't care if
there's an abundance of memory elsewhere if we can't access it.
This only affects the behavior of dumping memory information when an oom
is triggered. Other dumps, such as for sysrq+m, still display the
unfiltered form when using the existing show_mem() interface.
Additionally, the per-cpu pageset statistics are extremely verbose in oom
killer output, so it is now suppressed. This removes
nodes_weight(current->mems_allowed) * (1 + nr_cpus)
lines from the oom killer output.
Callers may use __show_mem(SHOW_MEM_FILTER_NODES) to filter disallowed
nodes.

This patch reverts 5a03b051 ("thp: use compaction in kswapd for GFP_ATOMIC
order > 0") due to reports stating that kswapd CPU usage was higher and
IRQs were being disabled more frequently. This was reported at
http://www.spinics.net/linux/fedora/alsa-user/msg09885.html.
Without this patch applied, CPU usage by kswapd hovers around the 20% mark
according to the tester (Arthur Marsh:
http://www.spinics.net/linux/fedora/alsa-user/msg09899.html). With this
patch applied, it's around 2%.
The problem is not related to THP which specifies __GFP_NO_KSWAPD but is
triggered by high-order allocations hitting the low watermark for their
order and waking kswapd on kernels with CONFIG_COMPACTION set. The most
common trigger for this is network cards configured for jumbo frames but
it's also possible it'll be triggered by fork-heavy workloads (order-1)
and some wireless cards which depend on order-1 allocations.
The symptoms for the user will be high CPU usage by kswapd in low-memory
situations which could be confused with another writeback problem. While
a patch like 5a03b051 may be reintroduced in the future, this patch plays
it safe for now and reverts it.

Using delayed-work for tty flip buffers ends up causing us to wait for
the next tick to complete some actions. That's usually not all that
noticeable, but for certain latency-critical workloads it ends up being
totally unacceptable.
As an extreme case of this, passing a token back-and-forth over a pty
will take two ticks per iteration, so even just a thousand iterations
will take 8 seconds assuming a common 250Hz configuration.
Avoiding the whole delayed work issue brings that ping-pong test-case
down to 0.009s on my machine.
In more practical terms, this latency has been a performance problem for
things like dive computer simulators (simulating the serial interface
using the ptys) and for other environments (Alan mentions a CP/M emulator).

Lingering requests are requests that are sent to the OSD normally but
tracked also after we get a successful request. This keeps the OSD
connection open and resends the original request if the object moves to
another OSD. The OSD can then send notification messages back to us
if another client initiates a notify.
This framework will be used by RBD so that the client gets notification
when a snapshot is created by another node or tool.

We dont need to test if we run from softirq context, we definitely are.
This saves few instructions in ip_rcv() & ip_rcv_finish()

If we send a request to osd A, and the request's pg remaps to osd B and
then back to A in quick succession, we need to resend the request to A. The
old code was only calling kick_requests after processing all incremental
maps in a message, so it was very possible to not resend a request that
needed to be resent. This would make the osd eventually time out (at least
with the current default of osd timeouts enabled).
The correct approach is to scan requests on every map incremental. This
patch refactors the kick code in a few ways:
- all requests are either on req_lru (in flight), req_unsent (ready to
send), or req_notarget (currently map to no up osd)
- mapping always done by map_request (previous map_osds)
- if the mapping changes, we requeue. requests are resent only after all
map incrementals are processed.
- some osd reset code is moved out of kick_requests into a separate
function
- the "kick this osd" functionality is moved to kick_osd_requests, as it
is unrelated to scanning for request->pg->osd mapping changes

lookup_mnt() is only used in the core fs routines now, so it doesn't need to
be globally declared anymore. It isn't exported to modules at the moment, so
nothing that can be modularised seems to be using it.

This patch moves the platform data definition from
arch/arm/plat-pxa/include/plat/i2c.h to include/linux/i2c/pxa-i2c.h so
it can be accessed from x86 the same way as on ARM.
This change should make no functional change to the PXA code. The move
is verified by building the following defconfigs:
cm_x2xx_defconfig corgi_defconfig em_x270_defconfig ezx_defconfig
imote2_defconfig pxa3xx_defconfig spitz_defconfig zeus_defconfig
raumfeld_defconfig magician_defconfig mmp2_defconfig pxa168_defconfig

It is frequently useful to sync a single file system, instead of all
mounted file systems via sync(2):
- On machines with many mounts, it is not at all uncommon for some of
them to hang (e.g. unresponsive NFS server). sync(2) will get stuck on
those and may never get to the one you do care about (e.g., /).
- Some applications write lots of data to the file system and then
want to make sure it is flushed to disk. Calling fsync(2) on each
file introduces unnecessary ordering constraints that result in a large
amount of sub-optimal writeback/flush/commit behavior by the file
system.
There are currently two ways (that I know of) to sync a single super_block:
- BLKFLSBUF ioctl on the block device: That also invalidates the bdev
mapping, which isn't usually desirable, and doesn't work for non-block
file systems.
- 'mount -o remount,rw' will call sync_filesystem as an artifact of the
current implemention. Relying on this little-known side effect for
something like data safety sounds foolish.
Both of these approaches require root privileges, which some applications
do not have (nor should they need?) given that sync(2) is an unprivileged
operation.
This patch introduces a new system call syncfs(2) that takes an fd and
syncs only the file system it references. Maybe someday we can
$ sync /some/path
and not get
sync: ignoring all arguments
The syscall is motivated by comments by Al and Christoph at the last LSF.
syncfs(2) seems like an appropriate name given statfs(2).
A similar ioctl was also proposed a while back, see
