[PATCH] mm: remap ZERO_PAGE mappings
filemap_xip's nopage routine maps the ZERO_PAGE into readonly mappings, if it
has no data page to map there: then if the hole in the file is later filled,
__xip_unmap uses an rmap technique to replace the ZERO_PAGEs mapped for that
offset by the newly allocated file page, so that established mappings will see
the newly written data.
However, on MIPS (alone) there's not one but as many as eight ZERO_PAGEs,
chosen for coloring by user virtual address; and if mremap has meanwhile been
used to move a mapping containing a ZERO_PAGE, it will generally not match the
ZERO_PAGE(address) __xip_unmap is looking for.
To maintain XIP's established mappings correctly on MIPS, we need Nick's fix
to mremap's move_one_page (originally presented as an optimization), to
replace the ZERO_PAGE appropriate to the old address by the ZERO_PAGE
appropriate to the new address.
(But when I first saw this, I was thinking the ZERO_PAGEs themselves would get
corrupted, very bad. Now I think it's the other way round, that the
established mappings will fail to see the newly written data: incorrect, but
not corrupting everything else. Whether filemap_xip's technique is generally
safe, I'd hesitate to say in a hurry: it's interesting, but we've never tried
to do that in tmpfs.)

[PATCH] /proc/<pid>/numa_maps to show on which nodes pages reside
This patch was recently discussed on linux-mm:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=

I inherited a large code base from Ray for page migration. There was a
small patch in there that I find to be very useful since it allows the
display of the locality of the pages in use by a process. I reworked that
patch and came up with a /proc/<pid>/numa_maps that gives more information
about the vma's of a process. numa_maps is indexes by the start address
found in /proc/<pid>/maps. F.e. with this patch you can see the page use

[PATCH] swap: swap_lock replace list+device
The idea of a swap_device_lock per device, and a swap_list_lock over them all,
is appealing; but in practice almost every holder of swap_device_lock must
already hold swap_list_lock, which defeats the purpose of the split.
The only exceptions have been swap_duplicate, valid_swaphandles and an
untrodden path in try_to_unuse (plus a few places added in this series).
valid_swaphandles doesn't show up high in profiles, but swap_duplicate does
demand attention. However, with the hold time in get_swap_pages so much
reduced, I've not yet found a load and set of swap device priorities to show
even swap_duplicate benefitting from the split. Certainly the split is mere
overhead in the common case of a single swap device.
So, replace swap_list_lock and swap_device_lock by spinlock_t swap_lock
(generally we seem to prefer an _ in the name, and not hide in a macro).
If someone can show a regression in swap_duplicate, then probably we should
add a hashlock for the swap_map entries alone (shorts being anatomic), so as
to help the case of the single swap device too.

get_swap_page has often shown up on latency traces, doing lengthy scans while
holding two spinlocks. swap_list_lock is already dropped, now scan_swap_map
drop swap_device_lock before scanning the swap_map.
While scanning for an empty cluster, don't worry that racing tasks may
allocate what was free and free what was allocated; but when allocating an
entry, check it's still free after retaking the lock. Avoid dropping the lock
in the expected common path. No barriers beyond the locks, just let the
cookie crumble; highest_bit limit is volatile, but benign.
Guard against swapoff: must check SWP_WRITEOK before allocating, must raise
SWP_SCANNING reference count while in scan_swap_map, swapoff wait for that to
fall - just use schedule_timeout, we don't want to burden scan_swap_map
itself, and it's very unlikely that anyone can really still be in

[ARM] 2865/2: fix fadvise64_64 syscall argument passing
Patch from Nicolas Pitre
The prototype for sys_fadvise64_64() is:
long sys_fadvise64_64(int fd, loff_t offset, loff_t len, int advice)
The argument list is therefore as follows on legacy ABI:
fd: type int (r0)
offset: type long long (r1-r2)
len: type long long (r3-sp[0])
advice: type int (sp[4])
With EABI this becomes:
fd: type int (r0)
offset: type long long (r2-r3)
len: type long long (sp[0]-sp[4])
advice: type int (sp[8])
Not only do we have ABI differences here, but the EABI version requires
one additional word on the syscall stack.
To avoid the ABI mismatch and the extra stack space required with EABI
this syscall is now defined with a different argument ordering
on ARM as follows:
long sys_arm_fadvise64_64(int fd, int advice, loff_t offset, loff_t len)
This gives us the following ABI independent argument distribution:
fd: type int (r0)
advice: type int (r1)
offset: type long long (r2-r3)
len: type long long (sp[0]-sp[4])
Now, since the syscall entry code takes care of 5 registers only by
default including the store of r4 to the stack, we need a wrapper to
store r5 to the stack as well. Because that wrapper was missing and was
always required this means that sys_fadvise64_64 never worked on ARM and
therefore we can safely reuse its syscall number for our new
sys_arm_fadvise64_64 interface.

[PATCH] iseries_veth: Fix bogus counting of TX errors
There's a number of problems with the way iseries_veth counts TX errors.
Firstly it counts conditions which aren't really errors as TX errors. This
includes if we don't have a connection struct for the other LPAR, or if the
other LPAR is currently down (or just doesn't want to talk to us). Neither
of these should count as TX errors.
Secondly, it counts one TX error for each LPAR that fails to accept the packet.
This can lead to TX error counts higher than the total number of packets sent
through the interface. This is confusing for users.
This patch fixes that behaviour. The non-error conditions are no longer
counted, and we introduce a new and I think saner meaning to the TX counts.
If a packet is successfully transmitted to any LPAR then it is transmitted
and tx_packets is incremented by 1.
If there is an error transmitting a packet to any LPAR then that is counted
as one error, ie. tx_errors is incremented by 1.

[PATCH] iseries_veth: Simplify full-queue handling
The iseries_veth driver often has multiple netdevices sending packets over
a single connection to another LPAR. If the bandwidth to the other LPAR is
exceeded, all the netdevices must have their queues stopped.
The current code achieves this by queueing one incoming skb on the
per-netdevice port structure. When the connection is able to send more packets
we iterate through the port structs and flush any packet that is queued,
as well as restarting the associated netdevice's queue.
This arrangement makes less sense now that we have per-connection TX timers,
rather than the per-netdevice generic TX timer.
The new code simply detects when one of the connections is full, and stops
the queue of all associated netdevices. Then when a packet is acked on that
connection (ie. there is space again) all the queues are woken up.

Currently the iseries_veth driver contravenes the specification in
Documentation/networking/driver.txt, in that if packets are not acked by

This patch adds a per-connection timer which fires if we've had no acks for
five seconds. This is superior to the generic TX timer because it catches
the case of a small number of packets being sent and never acked.
This fixes a bug we were seeing on real systems, where some IPv6 neighbour
discovery packets would not be acked and then prevent the module from being
removed, due to skbs lying around.

The iseries_veth driver can attach to multiple vlans, which correspond to
multiple net devices. However there is only 1 connection between each LPAR,
so the connection structure may be shared by multiple net devices.
This makes module removal messy, because we can't deallocate the connections
until we know there are no net devices still using them. The solution is to
use ref counts on the connections, so we can delete them (actually stop) as
soon as the ref count hits zero.

a dead LPAR, which would then hang us forever due to leftover skbs.

Currently if there's an error while initialising connections (ie. ENOMEM)
we call veth_module_cleanup(), however this will oops because we call
driver_unregister() before we've called driver_register(). I've never seen
this actually happen though.
So instead we explicitly call veth_destroy_connection() for each connection,
any that have been set up will be deallocated.
We also fix a potential leak if vio_register_driver() fails.

[PATCH] iseries_veth: Only call dma_unmap_single() if dma_map_single() succeeded
The iseries_veth driver unconditionally calls dma_unmap_single() even
when the corresponding dma_map_single() may have failed.
Rework the code a bit to keep the return value from dma_unmap_single()
around, and then check if it's a dma_mapping_error() before we do
the dma_unmap_single().

The iseries_veth driver uses atomic ops to manipulate the in_use field of

[PATCH] iseries_veth: Remove redundant message stack lock
The iseries_veth driver keeps a stack of messages for each connection

which makes the message stack lock redundant.
Remove the message stack lock and document the fact that callers of the
stack-manipulation functions must hold the connection's lock.

[PATCH] iseries_veth: Fix broken promiscuous handling
Due to a logic bug, once promiscuous mode is enabled in the iseries_veth
driver it is never disabled.
The driver keeps two flags, promiscuous and all_mcast which have exactly the
same effect. This is because we only ever receive packets destined for us,
or multicast packets. So consolidate them into one promiscuous flag for
simplicity.

[PATCH] iseries_veth: Try to avoid pathological reset behaviour
The iseries_veth driver contains a state machine which is used to manage
how connections are setup and neogotiated between LPARs.
If one side of a connection resets for some reason, the two LPARs can get
stuck in a race to re-setup the connection. This can lead to the connection
being declared dead by one or both ends. In practice the connection is
declared dead by one or both ends approximately 8/10 times a connection is
reset, although it is rare for connections to be reset.
(an example here: http://michael.ellerman.id.au/files/misc/veth-trace.html)
The core of the problem is that the end that resets the connection doesn't
wait for the other end to become aware of the reset. So the resetting end
starts setting the connection back up, and then receives a reset from the
other end (which is the response to the initial reset). And so on.
We're severely limited in what we can do to fix this. The protocol between
LPARs is essentially fixed, as we have to interoperate with both OS/400
and old Linux drivers. Which also means we need a fix that only changes the
code on one end.
The only fix I've found given that, is to just blindly sleep for a bit when
resetting the connection, in the hope that the other end will get itself
sorted. Needless to say I'd love it if someone has a better idea.
This does work, I've so far been unable to get it to break, whereas without
the fix a reset of one end will lead to a dead connection ~8/10 times.

[PATCH] iseries_veth: Remove a FIXME WRT deletion of the ack_timer
The iseries_veth driver has a timer which we use to send acks. When the
connection is reset or stopped we need to delete the timer.
Currently we only call del_timer() when resetting a connection, which means
the timer might run again while the connection is being re-setup. As it turns
out that's ok, because the flags the timer consults have been reset.
It's cleaner though to call del_timer_sync() once we've dropped the lock,
although the timer may still run between us dropping the lock and calling
del_timer_sync(), but as above that's ok.

[SERIAL] Clean up and fix tty transmission start/stoping
The start_tx and stop_tx methods were passed a flag to indicate
whether the start/stop was from the tty start/stop callbacks, and
some drivers used this flag to decide whether to ask the UART to
immediately stop transmission (where the UART supports such a
feature.)
There are other cases when we wish this to occur - when CTS is
lowered, or if we change from soft to hard flow control and CTS
is inactive. In these cases, this flag was false, and we would
allow the transmitter to drain before stopping.
There is really only one case where we want to let the transmitter
drain before disabling, and that's when we run out of characters
to send.
Hence, re-jig the start_tx and stop_tx methods to eliminate this
flag, and introduce new functions for the special "disable and
allow transmitter to drain" case.
