In commit 7538e3db6e (PM: add support
for device power domains) a better way for handling platform-specific
power hooks was introduced.
Rather than using the platform_bus dev_pm_ops overrides
(platform_bus_set_pm_ops()), this patch moves the OMAP runtime PM
implementation over to using device power domains.
Since OMAP is the only user of platform_bus_set_pm_ops(), that
interface can be removed (and will be in a forthcoming patch.)
[rjw: Rebased on top of a previous change modifying the handling of
power domains by the PM core so that power domain callbacks take
precendence over subsystem-level PM callbacks.]

Once shmobile platforms have been converted to using power domains
for overriding the platform bus type's PM callbacks, it isn't
necessary to use the __weakly defined wrappers around the generinc
runtime PM callbacks in the platform bus type any more.
Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
shmobile platforms replace the runtime PM callbacks of the platform
bus type with their own routines, but this means that the callbacks
are replaced system-wide. This may not be the right approach if the
platform devices on the system are not of the same type (e.g. some
of them belong to an SoC and the others are located in separate
chips), because in those cases they may require different handling.
Thus it is better to use power domains to override the platform bus
type's PM handling, as it generally is possible to use different
power domains for devices with different PM requirements.
Define a default power domain for shmobile in both the SH and ARM
falvors and use it to override the platform bus type's PM callbacks.
Since the suspend and hibernate callbacks of the new "default" power
domains need to be the same and the platform bus type's suspend and
hibernate callbacks for the time being, export those callbacks so
that can be used outside of the platform bus type code.

Export the default PM callbacks defined for the platform bus type so
that they can be used by power domains for suspending and resuming
platform devices in the future.
Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
Change the PM core's behavior related to power domains in such a way
that, if a power domain is defined for a given device, its callbacks
will be executed instead of and not in addition to the device
subsystem's PM callbacks.
The idea behind the initial implementation of power domains handling
by the PM core was that power domain callbacks would be executed in
addition to subsystem callbacks, so that it would be possible to
extend the subsystem callbacks by using power domains. It turns out,
however, that this wouldn't be really convenient in some important
situations.
For example, there are systems in which power can only be removed
from entire power domains. On those systems it is not desirable to
execute device drivers' PM callbacks until it is known that power is
going to be removed from the devices in question, which means that
they should be executed by power domain callbacks rather then by
subsystem (e.g. bus type) PM callbacks, because subsystems generally
have no information about what devices belong to which power domain.
Thus, for instance, if the bus type in question is the platform bus
type, its PM callbacks generally should not be called in addition to
power domain callbacks, because they run device drivers' callbacks
unconditionally if defined.
While in principle the default subsystem PM callbacks, or a subset of
them, may be replaced with different functions, it doesn't seem
correct to do so, because that would change the subsystem's behavior
with respect to all devices in the system, regardless of whether or
not they belong to any power domains. Thus, the only remaining
option is to make power domain callbacks take precedence over
subsystem callbacks.

With transparent hugepage support, handle_mm_fault() has to be careful
that a normal PMD has been established before handling a PTE fault. To
achieve this, it used __pte_alloc() directly instead of pte_alloc_map as
pte_alloc_map is unsafe to run against a huge PMD. pte_offset_map() is
called once it is known the PMD is safe.
pte_alloc_map() is smart enough to check if a PTE is already present
before calling __pte_alloc but this check was lost. As a consequence,
PTEs may be allocated unnecessarily and the page table lock taken. Thi
useless PTE does get cleaned up but it's a performance hit which is
visible in page_test from aim9.
This patch simply re-adds the check normally done by pte_alloc_map to
check if the PTE needs to be allocated before taking the page table lock.
The effect is noticable in page_test from aim9.

Since 569b846d ("memcg: coalesce uncharge during unmap/truncate"), we do
batched (delayed) uncharge at truncation/unmap. And since cdec2e42(memcg:
coalesce charging via percpu storage), we have percpu cache for
res_counter.
These changes improved performance of memory cgroup very much, but made
res_counter->usage usually have a bigger value than the actual value of
memory usage. So, *.usage_in_bytes, which show res_counter->usage, are
not desirable for precise values of memory(and swap) usage anymore.
Instead of removing these files completely(because we cannot know
res_counter->usage without them), this patch updates the meaning of those
files.

The huge_memory.c THP page fault was allowed to run if vm_ops was null
(which would succeed for /dev/zero MAP_PRIVATE, as the f_op->mmap wouldn't
setup a special vma->vm_ops and it would fallback to regular anonymous
memory) but other THP logics weren't fully activated for vmas with vm_file
not NULL (/dev/zero has a not NULL vma->vm_file).
So this removes the vm_file checks so that /dev/zero also can safely use
THP (the other albeit safer approach to fix this bug would have been to
prevent the THP initial page fault to run if vm_file was set).
After removing the vm_file checks, this also makes huge_memory.c stricter
in khugepaged for the DEBUG_VM=y case. It doesn't replace the vm_file
check with a is_pfn_mapping check (but it keeps checking for VM_PFNMAP
under VM_BUG_ON) because for a is_cow_mapping() mapping VM_PFNMAP should
only be allowed to exist before the first page fault, and in turn when
vma->anon_vma is null (so preventing khugepaged registration). So I tend
to think the previous comment saying if vm_file was set, VM_PFNMAP might
have been set and we could still be registered in khugepaged (despite
anon_vma was not NULL to be registered in khugepaged) was too paranoid.
The is_linear_pfn_mapping check is also I think superfluous (as described
by comment) but under DEBUG_VM it is safe to stay.

Azurit reports large increases in system time after 2.6.36 when running
Apache. It was bisected down to a892e2d7dc ("vfs: use kmalloc()
to allocate fdmem if possible").
That patch caused the vfs to use kmalloc() for very large allocations and
this is causing excessive work (and presumably excessive reclaim) within
the page allocator.
Fix it by falling back to vmalloc() earlier - when the allocation attempt
would have been considered "costly" by reclaim.

On a remount, the VFS layer will clear the MS_SYNCHRONOUS bit on the
assumption that the flags on the mount syscall will have it set if the
remounted fs is supposed to keep it.
In the case of "noac" though, MS_SYNCHRONOUS is implied. A remount of
such a mount will lose the MS_SYNCHRONOUS flag since "sync" isn't part

When readdir() returns a directory entry for the root of a mounted
filesystem, Linux follows the old convention of returning the inode
number of the covered directory (despite newer versions of POSIX declaring
that this is a bug).
To ensure this continues to work, the NFSv4 readdir implementation requests
the 'mounted-on-fileid' from the server.
However, readdirplus also needs to instantiate an inode for this entry, and
for that, we also need to request the real fileid as per this patch.

For m68k, N_NORMAL_MEMORY represents all nodes that have present memory
since it does not support HIGHMEM. This patch sets the bit at the time
node_present_pages has been set by free_area_init_node.
At the time the node is brought online, the node state would have to be
done unconditionally since information about present memory has not yet
been recorded.
If N_NORMAL_MEMORY is not accurate, slub may encounter errors since it
uses this nodemask to setup per-cache kmem_cache_node data structures.

consequence, while registering that power resource
acpi_bus_get_power_flags() sees that it depends on itself and tries
to register it again, which leads to an infinitely deep recurrence.
This problem was introduced by commit bf325f9538
(ACPI / PM: Register power resource devices as soon as they are
needed).
To fix this problem use the observation that power resources cannot
be power manageable and prevent acpi_bus_get_power_flags() from

It turns out that some PCI devices are only found to be
wakeup-capable during registration, in which case, when
device_set_wakeup_capable() is called, device_is_registered() already
returns 'true' for the given device, but dpm_sysfs_add() hasn't been
called for it yet. This leads to situations in which the device's
power.can_wakeup flag is not set as requested because of failing
wakeup_sysfs_add() and its wakeup-related sysfs files are not
created, although they should be present. This is a post-2.6.38
regression introduced by commit cb8f51bdad
(PM: Do not create wakeup sysfs files for devices that cannot wake
up).
To work around this problem initialize the device's power.entry
field to an empty list head and make device_set_wakeup_capable()
check if it is still empty before attempting to add the devices
wakeup-related sysfs files with wakeup_sysfs_add(). Namely, if
power.entry is still empty at this point, device_pm_add() hasn't been
called yet for the device and its wakeup-related files will be
created later, so device_set_wakeup_capable() doesn't have to create
them.

Now that the security modules can decide whether they support the

This patch makes the VFS RCU walk retry if it would hit the non RCU

done simply by passing the VFS RCU state as a flag down into the
avc_audit() code and returning ECHILD there if it would have an issue.
