During the LSPP testing we found that it was possible for
policydb_destroy() to take 10+ seconds of kernel time to complete.
Basically all policydb_destroy() does is walk some (possibly long) lists
and free the memory it finds. Turning off slab debugging config options
made the problem go away since the actual functions which took most of
the time were (as seen by oprofile)
> 121202 23.9879 .check_poison_obj
> 78247 15.4864 .check_slabp
were caused by that. So I decided to also add some voluntary schedule
points in that code so config voluntary preempt would be enough to solve
the problem. Something similar was done in places like
shmem_free_pages() when we have to walk a list of memory and free it.
This was tested by the LSPP group on the hardware which could reproduce
the problem just loading a new policy and was found to not trigger the
softlock detector. It takes just as much processing time, but the
kernel doesn't spend all that time stuck doing one thing and never
scheduling.
Someday a better way to handle memory might make the time needed in this
function a lot less, but this fixes the current issue as it stands
today.

The structure is as follows (relative to selinuxfs root):
/class/file/index
/class/file/perms/read
/class/file/perms/write
...
Each class is allocated 33 inodes, 1 for the class index and 32 for
permissions. Relative to SEL_CLASS_INO_OFFSET, the inode of the index file
DIV 33 is the class number. The inode of the permission file % 33 is the
index of the permission for that class.

Many places in kernel use seq_file API to iterate over a regular list_head.
The code for such iteration is identical in all the places, so it's worth
introducing a common helpers.
This makes code about 300 lines smaller:
The first version of this patch made the helper functions static inline
in the seq_file.h header. This patch moves them to the fs/seq_file.c as
Andrew proposed. The vmlinux .text section sizes are as follows:
2.6.22-rc1-mm1: 0x001794d5
with the previous version: 0x00179505
with this patch: 0x00179135
The config file used was make allnoconfig with the "y" inclusion of all
the possible options to make the files modified by the patch compile plus
drivers I have on the test node.

This is a hybrid version of the patch to add the LZO1X compression
algorithm to the kernel. Nitin and myself have merged the best parts of
the various patches to form this version which we're both happy with (and
are jointly signing off).
The performance of this version is equivalent to the original minilzo code
it was based on. Bytecode comparisons have also been made on ARM, i386 and
x86_64 with favourable results.
There are several users of LZO lined up including jffs2, crypto and reiser4
since its much faster than zlib.

This is the third submission of the network driver for PS3.
The differences from the previous one are:

- added cbe-oss-dev@ozlabs.org line for MAINTAINER file
- changed some in copyright comments
If there are no more comments, please apply for 2.6.23.

At present, when a device is enslaved to bonding, if ipv6 is
active then addrconf will be initated on the slave (because it is closed
then opened during the enslavement processing). This causes DAD and RS
packets to be sent from the slave. These packets in turn can confuse
switches that perform ipv6 snooping, causing them to incorrectly update
their forwarding tables (if, e.g., the slave being added is an inactve
backup that won't be used right away) and direct traffic away from the
active slave to a backup slave (where the incoming packets will be
dropped).
This patch alters the behavior so that addrconf will only run on
the master device itself. I believe this is logically correct, as it
prevents slaves from having an IPv6 identity independent from the
master. This is consistent with the IPv4 behavior for bonding.
This is accomplished by (a) having bonding set IFF_SLAVE sooner
in the enslavement processing than currently occurs (before open, not
after), and (b) having ipv6 addrconf ignore UP and CHANGE events on
slave devices.
The eql driver also uses the IFF_SLAVE flag. I inspected eql,
and I believe this change is reasonable for its usage of IFF_SLAVE, but
I did not test it.
