205ab99dd1 slub: Update statistics handling for variable order slabs
Change the statistics to consider that slabs of the same slabcache
can have different number of objects in them since they may be of
different order.

Provide a new sysfs field

	total_objects

which shows the total objects that the allocated slabs of a slabcache
could hold.

Add a max field that holds the largest slab order that was ever used
for a slab cache.

bbf45ba57e KVM: ppc: PowerPC 440 KVM implementation
This functionality is definitely experimental, but is capable of running
unmodified PowerPC 440 Linux kernels as guests on a PowerPC 440 host. (Only
tested with 440EP "Bamboo" guests so far, but with appropriate userspace
support other SoC/board combinations should work.)

See Documentation/powerpc/kvm_440.txt for technical details.

9fd91d959f ide: add "ignore_cable" parameter (take 2)
Add "ignore_cable" parameter:

* "ide_core.ignore_cable=[interface_number]" boot option if IDE is built-in
  (i.e. "ide_core.ignore_cable=1" to force ignoring cable for "ide1")

* "ignore_cable=[interface_number]" module parameter (for ide_core module)
  if IDE is compiled as module

v2:
* Add ide_port_apply_params() helper
  - use it in ide_device_add_all() and ide_scan_port().

* Make it possible to later disable ignoring cable detection by passing
  "[interface_number]:0" to /sys/module/ide_core/parameters/ignore_cable
  (however sysfs interface is not enabled yet since it needs some other
   IDE changes to make it work reliable).

eb764c4be1 USB: check serial-number string after device reset
This patch (as1048) extends the descriptor checking after a device is
reset.  Now the SerialNumber string descriptor is compared to its old
value, in addition to the device and configuration descriptors.

As a consequence, the kmalloc() call in usb_string() is now on the
error-handling pathway for usb-storage.  Hence its allocation type is
changed to GFO_NOIO.

b912b5e2cf [POWERPC] Xilinx: of_serial support for Xilinx uart 16550.
The Xilinx 16550 uart core is not a standard 16550 because it uses
word-based addressing rather than byte-based addressing. With
additional properties it is compatible with the open firmware
'ns16550' compatible binding.

This code updates the of_serial driver to handle the reg-offset
and reg-shift properties to enable this core to be used.

33e5316113 V4L/DVB (7651): tuner-xc2028: Several fixes to SCODE
This patch fixes several issues on SCODE:

1) The extracting tool weren't generating the proper tags for SCODE. This
   has almost no effect, since those tags shouldn't be used;

2) DIBCOM52 were using a wrong IF. It should be 5200, instead of 5700;

3) seek_firmware were wanting an exact match for firmware type. This is
   wrong. As result, no SCODE firmware were loaded;

4) A few files were including the wrong file for seeking demod firmwares;

5) XC3028_FE_DEFAULT can be used, if user doesn't want to load a firmware.
   However, this weren't documentated. This feature require more testing.

This board has a s5h1409 demod, plus a xc30x8 tuner (probably, xc3018).

This patch adds proper support for radio, video, s-video, composite and ATSC.
However, support for radio and video depends on having s5h1409 i2c gate open,
otherwise, xc30x8 chip won't be visible.

For a better support, some rework is needed on cx88 driver, to allow adding
xc30x8 to i2c bus without sending i2c 0 byte reading to 0xc2 address.

Thanks to Vanessa Ezekowitz <vanessaezekowitz@gmail.com> for helping to figure
out the proper parameters for s5h1409 and the GPIO pins used by each
configuration.

It was being detected as a GENERIC UNKNOWN CARD both by the 2.6.18
kernel and the latest v4l-dvb drivers, but it did not work at all. The
card has sixteen (16) BNC video inputs, four of them on the board itself
and twelve on three daughter-cards. It has a single bt878 chip, no tuner
and what looks like and audio input. After doing some research I managed
to get only eight channels working by forcing card=125 and those DID NOT
match channels 0-7 on the card, and no audio.

Based on what was working for card=125, I added the card definition
block, added a specific muxsel routine and got the card working fully
with xawtv, where the sixteen channels show up as Composite0 to
Composite15, matching the channel labels in the card and daughter-cards.
I have made no efforts yet to get audio working, but would appreciate
any pointers.

This is based on a original patch thanks to Markus Rechberger that added xc3028
gpio init code for the above boards.

This patch moves saa7134_tuner_callback to saa7134-cards, originally used only
by tda8290 DVB-S boards. The callback was made more generic to support other
tuners.

Currently, it supports both tda8290 and xc2028/xc3028 tuners. Added also the

This adds support for Quanta IL1 mini-notebook to alsa, defining a new model
for it. It comes with an ALC267 codec chip. Some notes about this model:

* In headphone automute, I use AC_VERB_SET_PIN_WIDGET_CONTROL instead of common
  amp mute, to avoid conflict with mixer switch (mixer and automute use the
  same nid).
* The only connected capture sources in the hardware are the internal mic and
  external mic jack. So instead of using an input source selector like on other
  ALC268 models, the mic automute automatically switch between captures.

2d4d4864ac [patch 6/7] vfs: mountinfo: add /proc/<pid>/mountinfo
[mszeredi@suse.cz] rewrite and split big patch into managable chunks

/proc/mounts in its current form lacks important information:

 - propagation state
 - root of mount for bind mounts
 - the st_dev value used within the filesystem
 - identifier for each mount and it's parent

It also suffers from the following problems:

 - not easily extendable
 - ambiguity of mountpoints within a chrooted environment
 - doesn't distinguish between filesystem dependent and independent options
 - doesn't distinguish between per mount and per super block options

This patch introduces /proc/<pid>/mountinfo which attempts to address
all these deficiencies.

Code shared between /proc/<pid>/mounts and /proc/<pid>/mountinfo is
extracted into separate functions.

Thanks to Al Viro for the help in getting the design right.

94e6108803 PCI: Expose PCI VPD through sysfs
Vital Product Data (VPD) may be exposed by PCI devices in several
ways.  It is generally unsafe to read this information through the
existing interfaces to user-land because of stateful interfaces.

This adds:
- abstract operations for VPD access (struct pci_vpd_ops)
- VPD state information in struct pci_dev (struct pci_vpd)
- an implementation of the VPD access method specified in PCI 2.2
  (in access.c)
- a 'vpd' binary file in sysfs directories for PCI devices with VPD
  operations defined

It adds a probe for PCI 2.2 VPD in pci_scan_device() and release of
VPD state in pci_release_dev().

5e0d2a6fc0 PCI: iommu: iotlb flushing
This patch is for batching up the flushing of the IOTLB for the DMAR
implementation found in the Intel VT-d hardware.  It works by building a list
of to be flushed IOTLB entries and a bitmap list of which DMAR engine they are
from.

After either a high water mark (250 accessible via debugfs) or 10ms the list
of iova's will be reclaimed and the DMAR engines associated are IOTLB-flushed.

This approach recovers 15 to 20% of the performance lost when using the IOMMU
for my netperf udp stream benchmark with small packets.  It can be disabled
with a kernel boot parameter "intel_iommu=strict".

Its use does weaken the IOMMU protections a bit.

1ba6ab11d8 PCI: remove initial bios sort of PCI devices on x86
We currently keep 2 lists of PCI devices in the system, one in the
driver core, and one all on its own.  This second list is sorted at boot
time, in "BIOS" order, to try to remain compatible with older kernels
(2.2 and earlier days).  There was also a "nosort" option to turn this
sorting off, to remain compatible with even older kernel versions, but
that just ends up being what we have been doing from 2.5 days...

Unfortunately, the second list of devices is not really ever used to 
determine the probing order of PCI devices or drivers[1].  That is done
using the driver core list instead.  This change happened back in the
early 2.5 days.

Relying on BIOS ording for the binding of drivers to specific device
names is problematic for many reasons, and userspace tools like udev
exist to properly name devices in a persistant manner if that is needed,
no reliance on the BIOS is needed.

Matt Domsch and others at Dell noticed this back in 2006, and added a
boot option to sort the PCI device lists (both of them) in a
breadth-first manner to help remain compatible with the 2.4 order, if
needed for any reason.  This option is not going away, as some systems
rely on them.

This patch removes the sorting of the internal PCI device list in "BIOS"
mode, as it's not needed at all anymore, and hasn't for many years.
I've also removed the PCI flags for this from some other arches that for
some reason defined them, but never used them.

This should not change the ordering of any drivers or device probing.

[1] The old-style pci_get_device and pci_find_device() still used this
sorting order, but there are very few drivers that use these functions,
as they are deprecated for use in this manner.  If for some reason, a
driver rely on the order and uses these functions, the breadth-first
boot option will resolve any problem.

2424b5dd06 sysfs: refill attribute buffer when reading from offset 0
Requiring userspace to close and re-open sysfs attributes has been the
policy since before 2.6.12.  It allows userspace to get a consistent
snapshot of kernel state and consume it with incremental reads and seeks.

Now, if the file position is zero the kernel assumes userspace wants to see
the new value.  The application for this change is to allow a userspace
RAID metadata handler to check the state of an array without causing any
memory allocations.  Thus not causing writeback to a raid array that might
be blocked waiting for userspace to take action.

138fe4e069 Firmware: add iSCSI iBFT Support
Add /sysfs/firmware/ibft/[initiator|targetX|ethernetX] directories along with
text properties which export the the iSCSI Boot Firmware Table (iBFT)
structure.

What is iSCSI Boot Firmware Table?  It is a mechanism for the iSCSI tools to
extract from the machine NICs the iSCSI connection information so that they
can automagically mount the iSCSI share/target.  Currently the iSCSI
information is hard-coded in the initrd.  The /sysfs entries are read-only
one-name-and-value fields.

The usual set of data exposed is:

# for a in `find /sys/firmware/ibft/ -type f -print`; do  echo -n "$a: ";  cat $a; done

58aca23226 PM: Handle device registrations during suspend/resume
Modify the PM core to protect its data structures, specifically the
dpm_active list, from being corrupted if a child of the currently
suspending device is registered concurrently with its ->suspend()
callback.  In that case, since the new device (the child) is added
to dpm_active after its parent, the PM core will attempt to
suspend it after the parent, which is wrong.

Introduce a new member of struct dev_pm_info, called 'sleeping',
and use it to check if the parent of the device being added to
dpm_active has been suspended, in which case the device registration
fails.  Also, use 'sleeping' for checking if the ordering of devices
on dpm_active is correct.

Introduce variable 'all_sleeping' that will be set to 'true' once all
devices have been suspended and make new device registrations fail
until 'all_sleeping' is reset to 'false', in order to avoid having
unsuspended devices around while the system is going into a sleep state.

Remove pm_sleep_rwsem which is not necessary any more.

lead to the creation of this patch.

f132697326 generic, x86: add tests for prctl PR_GET_TSC and PR_SET_TSC
This patch adds three tests that test whether the PR_GET_TSC and
PR_SET_TSC commands have the desirable effect.

The tests check whether the control register is updated correctly
at context switches and try to discover bugs while enabling/disabling
the timestamp counter.

076c54c5bc Security: Introduce security= boot parameter
Add the security= boot parameter. This is done to avoid LSM
registration clashes in case of more than one bult-in module.

User can choose a security module to enable at boot. If no
security= boot parameter is specified, only the first LSM
asking for registration will be loaded. An invalid security
module name will be treated as if no module has been chosen.

LSM modules must check now if they are allowed to register
by calling security_module_enable(ops) first. Modify SELinux
and SMACK to do so.

Do not let SMACK register smackfs if it was not chosen on
boot. Smackfs assumes that smack hooks are registered and
the initial task security setup (swapper->security) is done.

52f7c21b61 ocfs2: Move /sys/o2cb to /sys/fs/o2cb
/sys/fs is where we really want file system specific sysfs objects.

Ocfs2-tools has been updated to look in /sys/fs/o2cb. We can maintain
backwards compatibility with old ocfs2-tools by using a sysfs symlink. After
some time (2 years), the symlink can be safely removed. This patch also adds
documentation to make it easier for people to figure out what /sys/fs/o2cb
is used for.

Turn it off by default, as this code has not been tested well enough yet.

Use the CONFIG_DIRECT_GBPAGES=y .config option or gbpages on the

8bab8dded6 cgroups: add cgroup support for enabling controllers at boot time
The effects of cgroup_disable=foo are:

- foo isn't auto-mounted if you mount all cgroups in a single hierarchy
- foo isn't visible as an individually mountable subsystem

As a result there will only ever be one call to foo->create(), at init time;
all processes will stay in this group, and the group will never be mounted on
a visible hierarchy.  Any additional effects (e.g.  not allocating metadata)
are up to the foo subsystem.

This doesn't handle early_init subsystems (their "disabled" bit isn't set be,
but it could easily be extended to do so if any of the early_init systems
wanted it - I think it would just involve some nastier parameter processing
since it would occur before the command-line argument parser had been run.

Hugh said:

  Ballpark figures, I'm trying to get this question out rather than
  processing the exact numbers: CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR adds 15% overhead
  to the affected paths, booting with cgroup_disable=memory cuts that back to
  1% overhead (due to slightly bigger struct page).

  I'm no expert on distros, they may have no interest whatever in
  CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR=y; and the rest of us can easily build with or
  without it, or apply the cgroup_disable=memory patches.

Unix bench's execl test result on x86_64 was

== just after boot without mounting any cgroup fs.==
mem_cgorup=off : Execl Throughput       43.0     3150.1      732.6
mem_cgroup=on  : Execl Throughput       43.0     2932.6      682.0

7731ce63d9 ACPI PM: Restore the 2.6.24 suspend ordering
Some time ago it turned out that our suspend code ordering broke some
NVidia-based systems that hung if _PTS was executed with one of the PCI
devices, specifically a USB controller, in a low power state.

Then, it was noticed that the suspend code ordering was not compliant
with ACPI 1.0, although it was compliant with ACPI 2.0 (and later), and
it was argued that the code had to be changed for that reason (ref.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9528).

So we did, but evidently we did wrong, because it's now turning out that
some systems have been broken by this change. Refs:
	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10340
	https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=374217#c16

[ I said at that time that something like this might happend, but the
  majority of people involved thought that it was improbable due to the
  necessity to preserve the compliance of hardware with ACPI 1.0. ]

This actually is a quite serious regression from 2.6.24.

Moreover, the ACPI 1.0 ordering of suspend code introduced another issue
that I have only noticed recently.  Namely, if the suspend of one of
devices fails, the already suspended devices will be resumed without
executing _WAK before, which leads to problems on some systems (for
example, in such situations thermal management is broken on my HP
nx6325).  Consequently, it also breaks suspend debugging on the affected
systems.

Note also, that the requirement to execute _PTS before suspending
devices does not really make sense, because the device in question may
be put into a low power state at run time for a reason unrelated to a
system-wide suspend.

For the reasons outlined above, the change of the suspend ordering
should be reverted, which is done by the patch below.

[ Felix Möller: "I am the reporter from the original Novell Bug:

	https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=374217

  I just tried current git head (two hours ago) with the patch (the one
  from the beginning of this thread) from Rafael and without it.  With
  the patch my MacBook does suspend without it does not." ]

ecc6cd73b7 [POWERPC] Start removing linux,network-index in favour of aliases
This patch alters the bootwrapper for a number of machines (roubhly
all 4xx based cuboot or treeboot platforms) to use aliases instead of
the linux,network-index hack to work out which MAC address to attach
to which ethernet device node.

The now obsolete linux,network-index properties are removed from the
corresponding device trees.  This won't break backwards compatiblity,
because in cases where this fixup code is relevant, the device tree is
part of the kernel image.

The references to linux,network-index are removed from
booting-without-of.txt.  Not only is it now deprecated, but as a hack
applicable only when the device tree blob and fixup code were in the
same image, this property never belonged in booting-without-of.txt
which describes the interface between the kernel and firmware or
bootloaders which produce a device tree.  By the time the device tree
reaches the kernel, all the MAC addresses must be fully filled in.

537878d2c9 hw_random doc updates
Update documentation for the hw_random support to be current:

 - Documentation/hw_random.txt has been updated to reflect the
   current code:  it's a framework now, a "core" with a small
   sysfs interface, that hardware-specific drivers plug in to.
   Text specific to Intel hardware is now at the end.

 - Kconfig now references the Documentation/hw_random.txt file
   and better explains what this really does.

Both chunks of documentation now higlight the fact that the kernel entropy
pool is maintained by "rngd", and this driver has nothing directly to do with
that important task.
