2009-03-10mm: get_nid_for_pfn() returns intRoel Kluin
get_nid_for_pfn() returns int Presumably the (nid < 0) case has never happened. We do know that it is happening on one system while creating a symlink for a memory section so it should also happen on the same system if unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes() were called to remove the same symlink. The test was actually added in response to a problem with an earlier version reported by Yasunori Goto where one or more of the leading pages of a memory section on the 2nd node of one of his systems was uninitialized because I believe they coincided with a memory hole. That earlier version did not ignore uninitialized pages and determined the nid by considering only the 1st page of each memory section. This caused the symlink to the 1st memory section on the 2nd node to be incorrectly created in /sys/devices/system/node/node0 instead of /sys/devices/system/node/node1. The problem was fixed by adding the test to skip over uninitialized pages. I suspect we have not seen any reports of the non-removal of a symlink due to the incorrect declaration of the nid variable in unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes() because - systems where a memory section could have an uninitialized range of leading pages are probably rare. - memory remove is probably not done very frequently on the systems that are capable of demonstrating the problem. - lingering symlink(s) that should have been removed may have simply gone unnoticed.

2009-01-20driver core: Convert '/' to '!' in dev_set_name()Roland Dreier
Commit 3ada8b7e ("block: struct device - replace bus_id with dev_name(), dev_set_name()") deleted the code in register_disk() that changed a '/' to a '!' in the device name when registering a disk, but dev_set_name() does not perform this conversion. This leads to amusing problems with disks that have '/' in their names: for example a failure to boot with the root partition on a cciss device, even though the kernel says it knows about the root device: VFS: Cannot open root device "cciss/c0d0p6" or unknown-block(0,0) Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions: 6800 71652960 cciss/c0d0 driver: cciss 6802 1 cciss/c0d0p2 6805 2931831 cciss/c0d0p5 6806 34354908 cciss/c0d0p6 6810 71652960 cciss/c0d1 driver: cciss Fix this by adding code to change '/' to '!' in dev_set_name() to handle this until dev_set_name() is converted to use kobject_set_name().

2009-01-06mm: show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfsGary Hade
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.

2009-01-06PM: Simplify the new suspend/hibernation framework for devicesRafael J. Wysocki
PM: Simplify the new suspend/hibernation framework for devices Following the discussion at the Kernel Summit, simplify the new device PM framework by merging 'struct pm_ops' and 'struct pm_ext_ops' and removing pointers to 'struct pm_ext_ops' from 'struct platform_driver' and 'struct pci_driver'. After this change, the suspend/hibernation callbacks will only reside in 'struct device_driver' as well as at the bus type/ device class/device type level. Accordingly, PCI and platform device drivers are now expected to put their suspend/hibernation callbacks into the 'struct device_driver' embedded in 'struct pci_driver' or 'struct platform_driver', respectively.

2008-12-19cpumask: add sysfs displays for configured and disabled cpu mapsMike Travis
Impact: add new sysfs files. Add sysfs files "kernel_max" and "offline" to display the max CPU index allowed (NR_CPUS-1), and the map of cpus that are offline. Cpus can be offlined via HOTPLUG, disabled by the BIOS ACPI tables, or if they exceed the number of cpus allowed by the NR_CPUS config option, or the "maxcpus=NUM" kernel start parameter. The "possible_cpus=NUM" parameter can also extend the number of possible cpus allowed, in which case the cpus not present at startup will be in the offline state. (These cpus can be HOTPLUGGED ON after system startup [pending a follow-on patch to provide the capability via the /sys/devices/sys/cpu/cpuN/online mechanism to bring them online.]) By design, the "offlined cpus > possible cpus" display will always use the following formats: * all possible cpus online: "x$" or "x-y$" * some possible cpus offline: ".*,x$" or ".*,x-y$" where: x == number of possible cpus (nr_cpu_ids); and y == number of cpus >= NR_CPUS or maxcpus (if y > x). One use of this feature is for distros to select (or configure) the appropriate kernel to install for the resident system. Notes: * cpus offlined <= possible cpus will be printed for all architectures. * cpus offlined > possible cpus will only be printed for arches that set 'total_cpus' [X86 only in this patch].

2008-10-20vmscan: split LRU lists into anon & file setsRik van Riel
Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap ("anon"). The latter includes tmpfs. The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to find the page cache pages that it should evict. This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists. The big policy changes are in separate patches.

2008-10-16vsprintf: use new vsprintf symbolic function pointer formatBjorn Helgaas
Use the '%pF' format to get rid of an "#ifdef DEBUG" and make some printks atomic. This removes the last in-tree uses of print_fn_descriptor_symbol(). I marked print_fn_descriptor_symbol() deprecated and scheduled it for removal next year to give time for out-of-tree modules to be updated. parisc's print_fn_descriptor_symbol() is currently broken there (it needs to dereference the function pointer similar to ia64 and power). This patch shouldn't make anything worse, but it means we need to fix dereference_function_descriptor() instead of print_fn_descriptor_symbol() to get meaningful initcall_debug output.

2008-10-16Driver core: add bus_sort_breadthfirst() functionGreg Kroah-Hartman
The PCI core wants to reorder the devices in the bus list. So move this functionality out of the pci core and into the driver core so that anyone else can also do this if needed. This also lets us change how struct device is attached to drivers in the future without messing with the PCI core.

2008-10-16kobject: Fix kobject_rename and !CONFIG_SYSFSEric W. Biederman
When looking at kobject_rename I found two bugs with that exist when sysfs support is disabled in the kernel. kobject_rename does not change the name on the kobject when sysfs support is not compiled in. kobject_rename without locking attempts to check the validity of a rename operation, which the kobject layer simply does not have the infrastructure to do. This patch documents the previously unstated requirement of kobject_rename that is the responsibility of the caller to provide mutual exclusion and to be certain that the new_name for the kobject is valid. This patch modifies sysfs_rename_dir in !CONFIG_SYSFS case to call kobject_set_name to actually change the kobject_name. This patch removes the bogus and misleading check in kobject_rename that attempts to see if a rename is valid. The check is bogus because we do not have the proper locking. The check is misleading because it looks like we can and do perform checking at the kobject level that we don't. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2008-10-16debug: use dev_WARN() rather than WARN_ON() in device_pm_add()Arjan van de Ven
device_pm_add() has a WARN_ON that is showing relatively high on kerneloops.org, but unfortunately the WARN_ON is less than useful in that it doesn't print any information about what device is causing the issue. This patch fixes this by turning the WARN_ON() into the newly introduces dev_WARN() which will print information about the device in question.

2008-10-16device model: Do a quickcheck for driver binding before doing an expensive checkArjan van de Ven
This patch adds a quick check for the driver<->device match before taking the locks and doin gthe expensive checks. Taking the lock hurts in asynchronous boot context where the device lock gets hit; one of the init functions takes the lock and goes to do an expensive hardware init; the other init functions walk the same PCI list and get stuck on the lock as a result. For the common case, we can know there's no chance whatsoever of a match if the device isn't in the drivers ID table... so this patch does that check as a best-effort-avoid-the-lock approach. Bootcharts for before and after can be seen at http://www.fenrus.org/before.svg http://www.fenrus.org/after.svg Note the long time "agp_ali_init" takes in the first graph; my laptop doesn't even have an ALI chip in it! (the bootgraphs look a bit dissimilar, but that's the point, the first one has a bunch of arbitrary delays in it that cause it to look very different) This reduces my kernel boot time by about 20% Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
