zswap is a thin backend for frontswap that takes pages that are in the
process of being swapped out and attempts to compress them and store
them in a RAM-based memory pool. This can result in a significant I/O
reduction on the swap device and, in the case where decompressing from
RAM is faster than reading from the swap device, can also improve
workload performance.
It also has support for evicting swap pages that are currently
compressed in zswap to the swap device on an LRU(ish) basis. This
functionality makes zswap a true cache in that, once the cache is full,
the oldest pages can be moved out of zswap to the swap device so newer
pages can be compressed and stored in zswap.
This patch adds the zswap driver to mm/

zbud is an special purpose allocator for storing compressed pages. It
is designed to store up to two compressed pages per physical page.
While this design limits storage density, it has simple and
deterministic reclaim properties that make it preferable to a higher
density approach when reclaim will be used.
zbud works by storing compressed pages, or "zpages", together in pairs
in a single memory page called a "zbud page". The first buddy is "left
justifed" at the beginning of the zbud page, and the last buddy is
"right justified" at the end of the zbud page. The benefit is that if
either buddy is freed, the freed buddy space, coalesced with whatever
slack space that existed between the buddies, results in the largest
possible free region within the zbud page.
zbud also provides an attractive lower bound on density. The ratio of
zpages to zbud pages can not be less than 1. This ensures that zbud can
never "do harm" by using more pages to store zpages than the
uncompressed zpages would have used on their own.
This implementation is a rewrite of the zbud allocator internally used
by zcache in the driver/staging tree. The rewrite was necessary to
remove some of the zcache specific elements that were ingrained
throughout and provide a generic allocation interface that can later be
used by zsmalloc and others.
This patch adds zbud to mm/ for later use by zswap.

dm-switch is a new target that maps IO to underlying block devices
efficiently when there is a large number of fixed-sized address regions
but there is no simple pattern to allow for a compact mapping
representation such as dm-stripe.
Though we have developed this target for a specific storage device, Dell
EqualLogic, we have made an effort to keep it as general purpose as
possible in the hope that others may benefit.

This patch removes "io_lock" and "map_lock" in struct mapped_device and
"holders" in struct dm_table and replaces these mechanisms with
sleepable-rcu.
Previously, the code would call "dm_get_live_table" and "dm_table_put" to
get and release table. Now, the code is changed to call "dm_get_live_table"
and "dm_put_live_table". dm_get_live_table locks sleepable-rcu and
dm_put_live_table unlocks it.
dm_get_live_table_fast/dm_put_live_table_fast can be used instead of
dm_get_live_table/dm_put_live_table. These *_fast functions use
non-sleepable RCU, so the caller must not block between them.
If the code changes active or inactive dm table, it must call
dm_sync_table before destroying the old table.

Fix a boundary condition that caused failure for certain device sizes.
The problem is reported at
http://code.google.com/p/cryptsetup/issues/detail?id=160
For certain device sizes the number of hashes at a specific level was
calculated incorrectly.
It happens for example for a device with data and metadata block size 4096
that has 16385 blocks and algorithm sha256.
The user can test if he is affected by this bug by running the
"veritysetup verify" command and also by activating the dm-verity kernel
driver and reading the whole block device. If it passes without an error,
then the user is not affected.
The condition for the bug is:
Split the total number of data blocks (data_block_bits) into bit strings,
each string has hash_per_block_bits bits. hash_per_block_bits is
rounddown(log2(metadata_block_size/hash_digest_size)). Equivalently, you
can say that you convert data_blocks_bits to 2^hash_per_block_bits base.
If there some zero bit string below the most significant bit string and at
least one bit below this zero bit string is set, then the bug happens.
The same bug exists in the userspace veritysetup tool, so you must use
fixed veritysetup too if you want to use devices that are affected by
this boundary condition.

gfp flags to avoid a possible deadlock (see commit

When multipath needs to retry an ioctl the reference to the
current live table needs to be dropped. Otherwise a deadlock
occurs when all paths are down:
- dm_blk_ioctl takes a reference to the current table
and spins in multipath_ioctl().
- A new table is being loaded, but upon resume the process
hangs in dm_table_destroy() waiting for references to
drop to zero.
With this patch the reference to the old table is dropped
prior to retry, thereby avoiding the deadlock.

For the related next strcpy(), the destination length is less than 512,
but the source maximize length may be 'OPROMMAXPARAM' (4096) which is
more than 512.
One work flow may:
openprom_sunos_ioctl() -> if (cmd == OPROMSETOPT)
getstrings() -> will alloc buffer with size 'OPROMMAXPARAM'.
opromsetopt() -> devide the buffer into 'var' and 'value'
of_set_property() -> pass
prom_setprop() -> pass
ldom_set_var()
And do not mind the additional 4 alignment buffer increasing, since
'sizeof(pkt) - sizeof(pkt.header)' is 4 alignment at least.

Commit 384816051ca9125cd54750e59c780c2a2655fa4f (SUNRPC: fix races on
PipeFS MOUNT notifications) introduces a regression when we call
rpc_setup_pipedir() with RPCSEC_GSS as the auth flavour.
By calling rpcauth_create() while holding the sn->pipefs_sb_lock, we
end up deadlocking in gss_pipes_dentries_create_net().
Fix is to register the client and release the mutex before calling
rpcauth_create().

Configuring this option as a module with ACPI_TOSHIBA built-in
results in the following errors:
drivers/built-in.o: In function `toshiba_acpi_remove':
>> toshiba_acpi.c:(.text+0x314bb0): undefined reference to `i8042_remove_filter'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `toshiba_acpi_add':

>> toshiba_acpi.c:(.devinit.text+0xb98b): undefined reference to `i8042_remove_filter'
Add a dependency to prevent ACPI_TOSHIBA from being built-in when
SERIO_I8042=m.

Intel Smart Connect is an Intel-specific ACPI interface for configuring
devices to wake up at regular intervals so they can pull down mail or other
internet updates, and then go to sleep again. If a user enables this in
Windows and then reboots into Linux, the device may wake up if it's put to
sleep. Since there's no Linux userland support for any of this, the machine
will then remain awake until something else puts it back to sleep.
I haven't figured out all that much about how this works (there's a bunch
of different ACPI calls available on the device), but this seems to be
enough to turn it off. We can add more features to this driver if anyone
ever cares about figuring out what the rest of the calls do or writing some
Linux userspace to implement the rest of it.

Intel Rapid Start Technology is a firmware-based suspend-to-disk
implementation. Once placed in S3, the device will wake once either a
timeout elapses or the battery reaches a critical level. It will then resume
to the firmware and copy the contents of RAM to a specialised partition, and
then power off the machine. If the user turns the machine back on the
firmware will copy the contents of the partition back to RAM and then resume
from S3 as normal.
This driver provides an interface for configuring the wakeup events and
timeout. It still requires firmware support and an appropriate suspend
partition.

Controlling the wlan led seems to have some side effects to the machines
with wapf value is not equal to 4. It will make the keyboard backlight
out of order.
So, the patch will enable the wlan led function only if the wapf == 4.
