Kay Sievers 578454ff7e driver core: add devname module aliases to allow module on-demand auto-loading
This adds:
  alias: devname:<name>
to some common kernel modules, which will allow the on-demand loading
of the kernel module when the device node is accessed.

Ideally all these modules would be compiled-in, but distros seems too
much in love with their modularization that we need to cover the common
cases with this new facility. It will allow us to remove a bunch of pretty
useless init scripts and modprobes from init scripts.

The static device node aliases will be carried in the module itself. The
program depmod will extract this information to a file in the module directory:
  $ cat /lib/modules/2.6.34-00650-g537b60d-dirty/modules.devname
  # Device nodes to trigger on-demand module loading.
  microcode cpu/microcode c10:184
  fuse fuse c10:229
  ppp_generic ppp c108:0
  tun net/tun c10:200
  dm_mod mapper/control c10:235

Udev will pick up the depmod created file on startup and create all the
static device nodes which the kernel modules specify, so that these modules
get automatically loaded when the device node is accessed:
  $ /sbin/udevd --debug
  ...
  static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/cpu/microcode' c10:184
  static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/fuse' c10:229
  static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/ppp' c108:0
  static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/net/tun' c10:200
  static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/mapper/control' c10:235
  udev_rules_apply_static_dev_perms: chmod '/dev/net/tun' 0666
  udev_rules_apply_static_dev_perms: chmod '/dev/fuse' 0666

A few device nodes are switched to statically allocated numbers, to allow
the static nodes to work. This might also useful for systems which still run
a plain static /dev, which is completely unsafe to use with any dynamic minor
numbers.

Note:
The devname aliases must be limited to the *common* and *single*instance*
device nodes, like the misc devices, and never be used for conceptually limited
systems like the loop devices, which should rather get fixed properly and get a
control node for losetup to talk to, instead of creating a random number of
device nodes in advance, regardless if they are ever used.

This facility is to hide the mess distros are creating with too modualized
kernels, and just to hide that these modules are not compiled-in, and not to
paper-over broken concepts. Thanks! :)

Mel Gorman 5e77190580 mm: compaction: add a tunable that decides when memory should be compacted and when it should be reclaimed
The kernel applies some heuristics when deciding if memory should be
compacted or reclaimed to satisfy a high-order allocation.  One of these
is based on the fragmentation.  If the index is below 500, memory will not
be compacted.  This choice is arbitrary and not based on data.  To help
optimise the system and set a sensible default for this value, this patch
adds a sysctl extfrag_threshold.  The kernel will only compact memory if
the fragmentation index is above the extfrag_threshold.

Mel Gorman ed4a6d7f06 mm: compaction: add /sys trigger for per-node memory compaction
Add a per-node sysfs file called compact.  When the file is written to,
each zone in that node is compacted.  The intention that this would be
used by something like a job scheduler in a batch system before a job
starts so that the job can allocate the maximum number of hugepages
without significant start-up cost.

Eric Sandeen 0636c73ee7 ext3: make barrier options consistent with ext4
ext4 was updated to accept barrier/nobarrier mount options
in addition to the older barrier=0/1.  The barrier story
is complex enough, we should help people by making the options
the same at least, even if the defaults are different.

This patch allows the barrier/nobarrier mount options for ext3,
while keeping nobarrier the default.

It also unconditionally displays barrier status in show_options,
and prints a message at mount time if barriers are not enabled,
just as ext4 does.

Jason Wessel 4fe1da4ebc echi-dbgp: Add kernel debugger support for the usb debug port
This patch adds the capability to use the usb debug port with the
kernel debugger.  It is also still possible to use this functionality
with or without the earlyprintk=dbgpX.  It is possible to use the
kgdbwait boot argument to debug very early in the kernel start up code.

There are two ways to use this driver extension with a kernel boot argument.

1) kgdbdbgp=#   -- Where # is the number of the usb debug controller

   You must use sysrq-g to break into the kernel debugger on another
   connection type other than the dbgp.

2) kgdbdbgp=#debugControlNum#,#Seconds#

   In this mode, the usb debug port is polled every #Seconds# for
   character input.  It is possible to use gdb or press control-c to
   break into the kernel debugger.

From the implementation perspective there are 3 high level changes.

1) Allow variable retries for the the hardware via dbgp_bulk_read().

   The amount of retries for the dbgp_bulk_read() needed to be
   variable instead of fixed.  We do not want to poll at all when the
   kernel is operating in interrupt driven mode.  The polling only
   occurs if the kernel was booted when specifying some number of
   seconds via the kgdbdbgp boot argument (IE kgdbdbgp=0,1).  In this
   case the loop count is reduced to 1 so as introduce the smallest
   amount of latency as possible.

2) Save the bulk IN endpoint address for use by the kgdb code.

3) The addition of the kgdb interface code.

   This consisted of adding in a character read function for the dbgp
   as well as a polling thread to allow the dbgp to interrupt the
   kernel execution.  The rest is the typical kgdb I/O api.

Jason Wessel ada64e4c98 kgdboc,keyboard: Keyboard driver for kdb with kgdb
This patch adds in the kdb PS/2 keyboard driver.  This was mostly a
direct port from the original kdb where I cleaned up the code against
checkpatch.pl and added the glue to stitch it into kgdb.

This patch also enables early kdb debug via kgdbwait and the keyboard.

All the access to configure kdb using either a serial console or the
keyboard is done via kgdboc.

If you want to use only the keyboard and want to break in early you
would add to your kernel command arguments:

    kgdboc=kbd kgdbwait

If you wanted serial and or the keyboard access you could use:

    kgdboc=kbd,ttyS0

You can also configure kgdboc as a kernel module or at run time with
the sysfs where you can activate and deactivate kgdb.

Turn it on:
    echo kbd,ttyS0 > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc

Turn it off:
    echo "" > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc

Add support for the parallel port on the moschip MCS7715 device.  The port
registers itself with the parport subsystem as a low-level driver.  A separate
entry to the kernel configuration is added beneath that for the mos7720, to
avoid the need to link with the parport subsystem code for users who don't have
or don't want the parallel port.  Only compatibility mode is currently supported
(no ECP/EPP).  Tested with both moschip devices (7720 and 7715) on UP and SMP
hosts, including regression testing of serial port, concurrent operation of
serial and parallel ports, and various connect / disconnect scenarios.
