The existing priv field stores subdev private data owned by the subdev
driver. Host (bridge) drivers might need to store per-subdev
host-specific data, such as a pointer to platform data.

Add a v4l2_subdev host_priv field to store host-specific data, and
rename the existing priv field to dev_priv.

Nishanth Menon e1f60b292f PM: Introduce library for device-specific OPPs (v7)
SoCs have a standard set of tuples consisting of frequency and
voltage pairs that the device will support per voltage domain. These
are called Operating Performance Points or OPPs. The actual
definitions of OPP varies over silicon versions. For a specific domain,
we can have a set of {frequency, voltage} pairs. As the kernel boots
and more information is available, a default set of these are activated
based on the precise nature of device. Further on operation, based on
conditions prevailing in the system (such as temperature), some OPP
availability may be temporarily controlled by the SoC frameworks.

To implement an OPP, some sort of power management support is necessary
hence this library depends on CONFIG_PM.

Contributions include:
Sanjeev Premi for the initial concept:
	http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/50998/
Kevin Hilman for converting original design to device-based.
Kevin Hilman and Paul Walmsey for cleaning up many of the function
abstractions, improvements and data structure handling.
Romit Dasgupta for using enums instead of opp pointers.
Thara Gopinath, Eduardo Valentin and Vishwanath BS for fixes and
cleanups.
Linus Walleij for recommending this layer be made generic for usage
in other architectures beyond OMAP and ARM.
Mark Brown, Andrew Morton, Rafael J. Wysocki, Paul E. McKenney for
valuable improvements.

James Hogan d33ac60bea PM: Add sysfs attr for rechecking dev hash from PM trace
If the device which fails to resume is part of a loadable kernel module
it won't be checked at startup against the magic number stored in the
RTC.

Add a read-only sysfs attribute /sys/power/pm_trace_dev_match which
contains a list of newline separated devices (usually just the one)
which currently match the last magic number. This allows the device
which is failing to resume to be found after the modules are loaded
again.

Alan Stern 15bcb91d7e PM / Runtime: Implement autosuspend support
This patch (as1427) implements the "autosuspend" facility for runtime
PM.  A few new fields are added to the dev_pm_info structure and
several new PM helper functions are defined, for telling the PM core
whether or not a device uses autosuspend, for setting the autosuspend
delay, and for marking periods of device activity.

Drivers that do not want to use autosuspend can continue using the
same helper functions as before; their behavior will not change.  In
addition, drivers supporting autosuspend can also call the old helper
functions to get the old behavior.

The details are all explained in Documentation/power/runtime_pm.txt
and Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-power.

Alan Stern 7490e44239 PM / Runtime: Add no_callbacks flag
Some devices, such as USB interfaces, cannot be power-managed
independently of their parents, i.e., they cannot be put in low power
while the parent remains at full power.  This patch (as1425) creates a
new "no_callbacks" flag, which tells the PM core not to invoke the
runtime-PM callback routines for the such devices but instead to
assume that the callbacks always succeed.  In addition, the
non-debugging runtime-PM sysfs attributes for the devices are removed,
since they are pretty much meaningless.

The advantage of this scheme comes not so much from avoiding the
callbacks themselves, but rather from the fact that without the need
for a process context in which to run the callbacks, more work can be
done in interrupt context.

Rafael J. Wysocki 074037ec79 PM / Wakeup: Introduce wakeup source objects and event statistics (v3)
Introduce struct wakeup_source for representing system wakeup sources
within the kernel and for collecting statistics related to them.
Make the recently introduced helper functions pm_wakeup_event(),
pm_stay_awake() and pm_relax() use struct wakeup_source objects
internally, so that wakeup statistics associated with wakeup devices
can be collected and reported in a consistent way (the definition of
pm_relax() is changed, which is harmless, because this function is
not called directly by anyone yet).  Introduce new wakeup-related
sysfs device attributes in /sys/devices/.../power for reporting the
device wakeup statistics.

Change the global wakeup events counters event_count and
events_in_progress into atomic variables, so that it is not necessary
to acquire a global spinlock in pm_wakeup_event(), pm_stay_awake()
and pm_relax(), which should allow us to avoid lock contention in
these functions on SMP systems with many wakeup devices.

Tristan Ye 7bdb0d18bf ocfs2: Add a mount option "coherency=*" to handle cluster coherency for O_DIRECT writes.
Currently, the default behavior of O_DIRECT writes was allowing
concurrent writing among nodes to the same file, with no cluster
coherency guaranteed (no EX lock held).  This can leave stale data in
the cache for buffered reads on other nodes.

The new mount option introduce a chance to choose two different
behaviors for O_DIRECT writes:

    * coherency=full, as the default value, will disallow
                      concurrent O_DIRECT writes by taking
                      EX locks.

    * coherency=buffered, allow concurrent O_DIRECT writes
                          without EX lock among nodes, which
                          gains high performance at risk of
                          getting stale data on other nodes.

Tejun Heo 6370a6ad3b workqueue: add and use WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag
Add WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag which currently maps to WQ_RESCUER, mark
WQ_RESCUER as internal and replace all external WQ_RESCUER usages to
WQ_MEM_RECLAIM.

This makes the API users express the intent of the workqueue instead
of indicating the internal mechanism used to guarantee forward
progress.  This is also to make it cleaner to add more semantics to
WQ_MEM_RECLAIM.  For example, if deemed necessary, memory reclaim
workqueues can be made highpri.

This patch doesn't introduce any functional change.

Stefan Richter 66fa12c571 ieee1394: remove the old IEEE 1394 driver stack
The drivers
  - ohci1394 (controller driver)
  - ieee1394 (core)
  - dv1394, raw1394, video1394 (userspace ABI)
  - eth1394, sbp2 (protocol drivers)
are replaced by
  - firewire-ohci (controller driver)
  - firewire-core (core and userspace ABI)
  - firewire-net, firewire-sbp2 (protocol drivers)
which are more featureful, better performing, and more secure than the older
drivers; all with a smaller and more modern code base.

The driver firedtv in drivers/media/dvb/firewire/ contains backends to both
ieee1394 and firewire-core.  Its ieee1394 backend code can be removed in an
independent commit; firedtv as-is builds and works fine without ieee1394.

The driver pcilynx (an incomplete controller driver) is deleted without
replacement since PCILynx cards are extremely rare.  Owners of these cards
use them with the stand-alone bus sniffer driver nosy instead.

The drivers nosy and init_ohci1394_dma which do not interact with either of
the two IEEE 1394 stacks are not affected by the ieee1394 subsystem removal.

There are still some issues with the newer firewire subsystem compared to
the older one:
  - The rare and quirky controllers ALi M52xx, Apple UniNorth v1, NVIDIA
    NForce2 are even less well supported by firewire-ohci than by ohci1394.
    I am looking into the M52xx issue.
  - The experimental firewire-net is reportedly less stable than its
    experimental cousin eth1394.
  - Audio playback of a certain group of audio devices (ones based on DICE
    chipset with EAP; supported by prerelease FFADO code) does not work yet.
    This issue is still under investigation.
  - There were some ieee1394 based out-of-the-mainline drivers.  Of them,
    only lisight, an audio driver for iSight webcams, seems still useful.
    Work is underway to reimplement it on top of firewire-core.

All these remainig issues are minor; they should not stand in the way of
overall better user experience of IEEE 1394 on Linux, together with a
reduction in support efforts and maintenance burden.  The coexistence of two
IEEE 1394 kernel driver stacks in the mainline since 2.6.22 shall end now,
as announced earlier this year.

Rémi Denis-Courmont 03789f2672 Phonet: cleanup pipe enable socket option
The current code works like this:

  int garbage, status;
  socklen_t len = sizeof(status);

  /* enable pipe */
  setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &garbage, sizeof(garbage));
  /* disable pipe */
  setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_DISABLE, &garbage, sizeof(garbage));
  /* get status */
  getsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_INQ, &status, &len);

...which does not follow the usual socket option pattern. This patch
merges all three "options" into a single gettable&settable option,
before Linux 2.6.37 gets out:

  int status;
  socklen_t len = sizeof(status);

  /* enable pipe */
  status = 1;
  setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, sizeof(status));
  /* disable pipe */
  status = 0;
  setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, sizeof(status));
  /* get status */
  getsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, &len);

This also fixes the error code from EFAULT to ENOTCONN.

Arnd Bergmann 2116b7a473 smbfs: move to drivers/staging
smbfs has been scheduled for removal in 2.6.27, so
maybe we can now move it to drivers/staging on the
way out.

smbfs still uses the big kernel lock and nobody
is going to fix that, so we should be getting
rid of it soon.

This removes the 32 bit compat mount and ioctl
handling code, which is implemented in common fs
code, and moves all smbfs related files into
drivers/staging/smbfs.

Paul E. McKenney 269dcc1c2e rcu: Add tracing data to support queueing models
The current tracing data is not sufficient to deduce the average time
that a callback spends waiting for a grace period to end.  Add three
per-CPU counters recording the number of callbacks invoked (ci), the
number of callbacks orphaned (co), and the number of callbacks adopted
(ca).  Given the existing callback queue length (ql), the average wait
time in absence of CPU hotplug operations is ql/ci.  The units of wait
time will be in terms of the duration over which ci was measured.

In the presence of CPU hotplug operations, there is room for argument,
but ql/(ci-co+ca) won't steer you too far wrong.

Also fixes a typo called out by Lucas De Marchi <lucas.de.marchi@gmail.com>.

The drm device drivers currently allow seeking on the

When we change the default llseek operation to be
no_llseek, calling llseek on a drm device would
return an error condition, which is an API change.

Explicitly setting noop_llseek lets us keep the
current API.

Gerrit Renker 89858ad143 dccp ccid-3: use per-route RTO or TCP RTO as fallback
This makes RTAX_RTO_MIN also available to CCID-3, replacing the compile-time
RTO lower bound with a per-route tunable value.

The original Kconfig option solved the problem that a very low RTT (in the
order of HZ) can trigger too frequent and unnecessary reductions of the
sending rate.

This tunable does not affect the initial RTO value of 2 seconds specified in
RFC 5348, section 4.2 and Appendix B. But like the hardcoded Kconfig value,
it allows to adapt to network conditions.

The same effect as the original Kconfig option of 100ms is now achieved by

> ip route replace to unicast 192.168.0.0/24 rto_min 100j dev eth0

(assuming HZ=1000).

Gerrit Renker 4886fcad6e dccp ccid-2: Share TCP's minimum RTO code
Using a fixed RTO_MIN of 0.2 seconds was found to cause problems for CCID-2
over 802.11g: at least once per session there was a spurious timeout. It
helped to then increase the the value of RTO_MIN over this link.

Since the problem is the same as in TCP, this patch makes the solution from
commit "05bb1fad1cde025a864a90cfeb98dcbefe78a44a"
       "[TCP]: Allow minimum RTO to be configurable via routing metrics."
available to DCCP.

This avoids reinventing the wheel, so that e.g. the following works in the
expected way now also for CCID-2:

> ip route change 10.0.0.2 rto_min 800 dev ath0

Luckily this useful rto_min function was recently moved to net/tcp.h,
which simplifies sharing code originating from TCP.

Documentation also updated (plus minor whitespace fixes).

Rafael J. Wysocki 28eb5f274a PCI: PCIe: Ask BIOS for control of all native services at once
After commit 852972acff (ACPI: Disable
ASPM if the platform won't provide _OSC control for PCIe) control of
the PCIe Capability Structure is unconditionally requested by
acpi_pci_root_add(), which in principle may cause problems to
happen in two ways.  First, the BIOS may refuse to give control of
the PCIe Capability Structure if it is not asked for any of the
_OSC features depending on it at the same time.  Second, the BIOS may
assume that control of the _OSC features depending on the PCIe
Capability Structure will be requested in the future and may behave
incorrectly if that doesn't happen.  For this reason, control of
the PCIe Capability Structure should always be requested along with
control of any other _OSC features that may depend on it (ie. PCIe
native PME, PCIe native hot-plug, PCIe AER).

Rework the PCIe port driver so that (1) it checks which native PCIe
port services can be enabled, according to the BIOS, and (2) it
requests control of all these services simultaneously.  In
particular, this causes pcie_portdrv_probe() to fail if the BIOS
refuses to grant control of the PCIe Capability Structure, which
means that no native PCIe port services can be enabled for the PCIe
Root Complex the given port belongs to.  If that happens, ASPM is
disabled to avoid problems with mishandling it by the part of the
PCIe hierarchy for which control of the PCIe Capability Structure
has not been received.

Make it possible to override this behavior using 'pcie_ports=native'
(use the PCIe native services regardless of the BIOS response to the
control request), or 'pcie_ports=compat' (do not use the PCIe native
services at all).

Accordingly, rework the existing PCIe port service drivers so that
they don't request control of the services directly.

Alok Kataria 9863c90f68 x86, vmware: Remove deprecated VMI kernel support
With the recent innovations in CPU hardware acceleration technologies
from Intel and AMD, VMware ran a few experiments to compare these
techniques to guest paravirtualization technique on VMware's platform.
These hardware assisted virtualization techniques have outperformed the
performance benefits provided by VMI in most of the workloads. VMware
expects that these hardware features will be ubiquitous in a couple of
years, as a result, VMware has started a phased retirement of this
feature from the hypervisor.

Please note that VMI has always been an optimization and non-VMI kernels
still work fine on VMware's platform.
Latest versions of VMware's product which support VMI are,
Workstation 7.0 and VSphere 4.0 on ESX side, future maintainence
releases for these products will continue supporting VMI.

For more details about VMI retirement take a look at this,
http://blogs.vmware.com/guestosguide/2009/09/vmi-retirement.html

This feature removal was scheduled for 2.6.37 back in September 2009.

Ian Campbell 1dc7ce99b0 xen: pvhvm: rename xen_emul_unplug=ignore to =unnnecessary
It is not immediately clear what this option causes to become
ignored. The actual meaning is that it is not necessary to unplug the
emulated devices to safely use the PV ones, even if the platform does
not support the unplug protocol. (pressumably the user will only add
this option if they have ensured that their domain configuration is
safe).

I think xen_emul_unplug=unnecessary better captures this.

Chapter 6 is right about mutex_trylock, but chapter 10 wasn't.  This error
was introduced during semaphore-to-mutex conversion of the Unreliable
guide.  :-)

If user context which performs mutex_lock() or mutex_trylock() is
preempted by interrupt context which performs mutex_trylock() on the same
mutex instance, a deadlock occurs.  This is because these functions do not
disable local IRQs when they operate on mutex->wait_lock.

Zhang Rui c637e4861c ACPI: introduce module parameter acpi.aml_debug_output
Introduce module parameter acpi.aml_debug_output.

With acpi.aml_debug_output set, we can get AML debug object output
(Store (AAA, Debug)), even with CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG cleared.

Together with the runtime custom method mechanism,
we can debug AML code problems without rebuilding the kernel.

Add support for exposing all GPIO pins as analog voltages. Though this is
not an ideal use of the chip, some hardware engineers may decide that the
LTC4245 meets their design requirements when studying the datasheet.

The GPIO pins are sampled in round-robin fashion, meaning that a slow
reader will see stale data. A userspace application can detect this,
because it will get -EAGAIN when reading from a sysfs file which contains
stale data.

Users can choose to use this feature on a per-chip basis by using either
platform data or the OF device tree (where applicable).

René Herman 495311927f ALSA: ISA: New Aztech Sound Galaxy driver
This is a new driver for Aztech Sound Galaxy ISA soundcards based on the
AZT1605 and AZT2316 chipsets. It's constructed as two seperate drivers
for either chipset generated from the same source file, with (very)
minimal ifdeffery.

The drivers check the SB DSP version to decide if they are being loaded
for the right chip. AZT1605 returns 2.1 by default and AZT2316 3.1.
This isn't full-proof as the DSP version can actually be set through
software but it's close enough -- as far as I've been able to see, the
DSP version can not be stored in the EEPROM and the cards will therefore
startup with the defaults.

This distinction could (with the same success rate) also be used to
decide which chip we're looking at at runtime meaning a single, merged
driver is also an option but I feel it's actually nicer this way. A
merged driver would have to postpone translating the passed in resource
values to the card configuration until it knew which one it was looking
at and would need to postpone erring out on mpu_irq=10 for azt1605 and
mpu_irq=3 for azt2316.

The drivers have been tested on various cards. For snd-azt1605:

FCC-ID I38-MMSN811: Aztech Sound Galaxy Nova 16 Extra
FCC-ID I38-MMSN822: Aztech Sound Galaxy Pro 16 II

and for snd-azt2316:

FCC-ID I38-MMSN824: Aztech Sound Galaxy Pro 16 AB
FCC-ID I38-MMSN826: Trust Sound Expert DeLuxe Wave 32 (05201)
FCC-ID I38-MMSN830: Trust Sound Expert DeLuxe 16+ (05202)
FCC-ID I38-MMSN837: Packard Bell ISA Soundcard 030069
FCC-ID I38-MMSN846: Trust Sound Expert DeLuxe 16-3D (06300)
FCC-ID I38-MMSN847: Trust Sound Expert DeLuxe Wave 32-3D (06301)
FCC-ID I38-MMSN852: Aztech Sound Galaxy Waverider Pro 32-3D

826 and 846 were also marketed directly by Aztech and then known as:

FCC-ID I38-MMSN826: Aztech Sound Galaxy Waverider 32+
FCC-ID I38-MMSN846: Aztech Sound Galaxy Nova 16 Extra II-3D

Together, these cover the AZT1605 and AT2316A, AZT2316R and AZT2316-S
chipsets. All cards work fully -- full-duplex PCM, MIDI and FM. Full
duplex is a little flaky on some.

I38-MSN811 tends to not work in full-duplex but sometimes does with the
highest success rate being achieved when you first start the capture and
then a playback instead of the other way around (it's a CS4231-KL
codec).

The cards with an AD1845XP codec (my I38-MMSN826 and one of my
I38-MMSN830s) are also somewhat duplex-challenged. Sometimes full-duplex
works, sometimes not and this varies from try to try. This seems likely
to be a timing problem somewhere inside wss-lib.

I38-MMSN826 has an additional "ICS2115 WaveFront" wavetable synth
onboard that isn't supported yet. The wavetable synths on I38-MMSN847
and I38-MMSN852 are wired directly to the standard MPU-401 UART and the
AUX1 input on the codec and work without problem.

CD-ROM audio on the cards is routed to the codec "Line" input, Line-In
to its Aux input, and FM/Wavetable to its AUX1 input. I did not rename
the controls due to the capture source enumeration: I see that
capture-source overrides are hardcoded in wss-lib and this is just too
ugly to live.

Versus the old snd-sgalaxy driver these drivers add support for the
models without a configuration EEPROM (which are common), full-duplex,
MPU-401 UART and OPL3. In the future they might grow support for that
ICS2115 WaveFront synth on 826 and an hwdep interface to write to the
EEPROM on the models that have one.

Adrian Hunter dfe86cba76 mmc: add erase, secure erase, trim and secure trim operations
SD/MMC cards tend to support an erase operation.  In addition, eMMC v4.4
cards can support secure erase, trim and secure trim operations that are
all variants of the basic erase command.

SD/MMC device attributes "erase_size" and "preferred_erase_size" have been
added.

"erase_size" is the minimum size, in bytes, of an erase operation.  For
MMC, "erase_size" is the erase group size reported by the card.  Note that
"erase_size" does not apply to trim or secure trim operations where the
minimum size is always one 512 byte sector.  For SD, "erase_size" is 512
if the card is block-addressed, 0 otherwise.

SD/MMC cards can erase an arbitrarily large area up to and
including the whole card.  When erasing a large area it may
be desirable to do it in smaller chunks for three reasons:

    1. A single erase command will make all other I/O on the card
       wait.  This is not a problem if the whole card is being erased, but
       erasing one partition will make I/O for another partition on the
       same card wait for the duration of the erase - which could be a
       several minutes.

    2. To be able to inform the user of erase progress.

    3. The erase timeout becomes too large to be very useful.
       Because the erase timeout contains a margin which is multiplied by
       the size of the erase area, the value can end up being several
       minutes for large areas.

"erase_size" is not the most efficient unit to erase (especially for SD
where it is just one sector), hence "preferred_erase_size" provides a good
chunk size for erasing large areas.

For MMC, "preferred_erase_size" is the high-capacity erase size if a card
specifies one, otherwise it is based on the capacity of the card.

For SD, "preferred_erase_size" is the allocation unit size specified by
the card.

"preferred_erase_size" is in bytes.

TAMUKI Shoichi c7ff0d9c92 panic: keep blinking in spite of long spin timer mode
To keep panic_timeout accuracy when running under a hypervisor, the
current implementation only spins on long time (1 second) calls to mdelay.
 That brings a good effect, but the problem is the keyboard LEDs don't
blink at all on that situation.

This patch changes to call to panic_blink_enter() between every mdelay and
keeps blinking in spite of long spin timer mode.

The time to call to mdelay is now 100ms.  Even this change will keep
panic_timeout accuracy enough when running under a hypervisor.

FUJITA Tomonori 3b9c6c11f5 dma-mapping: remove dma_is_consistent API
Architectures implement dma_is_consistent() in different ways (some
misinterpret the definition of API in DMA-API.txt).  So it hasn't been so
useful for drivers.  We have only one user of the API in tree.  Unlikely
out-of-tree drivers use the API.

Even if we fix dma_is_consistent() in some architectures, it doesn't look
useful at all.  It was invented long ago for some old systems that can't
allocate coherent memory at all.  It's better to export only APIs that are
definitely necessary for drivers.

Let's remove this API.

Andy Shevchenko a93917d39f USB: gadget: storage: optional SCSI WRITE FUA bit
MS Windows mounts removable storage in "Removal optimized mode" by
default. All the writes to the media are synchronous which is achieved
by setting FUA (Force Unit Access) bit in SCSI WRITE(10,12) commands.
This prevents I/O requests aggregation in block layer dramatically
decreasing performance.

This patch brings an option to accept or ignore mentioned bit
 a) via specifying module parameter "nofua", or
 b) through sysfs entry
	/sys/devices/platform/_UDC_/gadget/gadget-lunX/nofua
	(_UDC_ is the name of the USB Device Controller driver)

Patch is based on the work that was done by Denis Karpov for Maemo 5
platform.

 * Fan/pwm control is the same as for F71889FG
 * Temperature and voltage sensor handling is largely the same as for

  - Has one temperature sensor less (doesn't have temp3)
  - Misses one voltage sensor (doesn't have V6, thus in6_input refers to
    what in7_input refers for F71889FG)

For the purpose of the sysfs interface fxxxx_in_temp_attr[] is split up
such that it can largely be reused.

Christoph Mair 5bf1d290b5 drivers/misc: support for the pressure sensor BMP085 from Bosch Sensortec
This driver adds support for the BMP085 digital pressure sensor from Bosch
Sensortec.  It exposes a sysfs api to userspace where pressure and
temperature measurement results can be read from the pressure0_input and
temp0_input file.  The chip is able to calculate the average of up to
eight samples to increase the accuracy.  This feature can be controlled by
writing to the oversampling file.

The BMP085 digital pressure sensor can measure ambient air pressure and
temperature.  Both values can be obtained from sysfs files.  The pressure
is measured by reading from pressure0_input.  Valid values range from
30000 to 110000 pascal with a resolution of 1 pascal (=0.01 millibar).

temp0_input holds the current temperature in degree celsius, multiplied by
10.  This results in a resolution of a tenth degree celsius.  Values range
from -400 to 850.

To increase the accuracy, this chip can calculate the average of 1, 2, 4
or 8 samples.  This behavior is controlled through the oversampling sysfs
file.  Two to the power of the value written to that file specifies how
many samples will be used.  Valid values: 0..3.

David Rientjes 51b1bd2ace oom: deprecate oom_adj tunable
/proc/pid/oom_adj is now deprecated so that that it may eventually be
removed.  The target date for removal is August 2012.

A warning will be printed to the kernel log if a task attempts to use this
interface.  Future warning will be suppressed until the kernel is rebooted
to prevent spamming the kernel log.

David Rientjes a63d83f427 oom: badness heuristic rewrite
This a complete rewrite of the oom killer's badness() heuristic which is
used to determine which task to kill in oom conditions.  The goal is to
make it as simple and predictable as possible so the results are better
understood and we end up killing the task which will lead to the most
memory freeing while still respecting the fine-tuning from userspace.

Instead of basing the heuristic on mm->total_vm for each task, the task's
rss and swap space is used instead.  This is a better indication of the
amount of memory that will be freeable if the oom killed task is chosen
and subsequently exits.  This helps specifically in cases where KDE or
GNOME is chosen for oom kill on desktop systems instead of a memory
hogging task.

The baseline for the heuristic is a proportion of memory that each task is
currently using in memory plus swap compared to the amount of "allowable"
memory.  "Allowable," in this sense, means the system-wide resources for
unconstrained oom conditions, the set of mempolicy nodes, the mems
attached to current's cpuset, or a memory controller's limit.  The
proportion is given on a scale of 0 (never kill) to 1000 (always kill),
roughly meaning that if a task has a badness() score of 500 that the task
consumes approximately 50% of allowable memory resident in RAM or in swap
space.

The proportion is always relative to the amount of "allowable" memory and
not the total amount of RAM systemwide so that mempolicies and cpusets may
operate in isolation; they shall not need to know the true size of the
machine on which they are running if they are bound to a specific set of
nodes or mems, respectively.

Root tasks are given 3% extra memory just like __vm_enough_memory()
provides in LSMs.  In the event of two tasks consuming similar amounts of
memory, it is generally better to save root's task.

Because of the change in the badness() heuristic's baseline, it is also
necessary to introduce a new user interface to tune it.  It's not possible
to redefine the meaning of /proc/pid/oom_adj with a new scale since the
ABI cannot be changed for backward compatability.  Instead, a new tunable,
/proc/pid/oom_score_adj, is added that ranges from -1000 to +1000.  It may
be used to polarize the heuristic such that certain tasks are never
considered for oom kill while others may always be considered.  The value
is added directly into the badness() score so a value of -500, for
example, means to discount 50% of its memory consumption in comparison to
other tasks either on the system, bound to the mempolicy, in the cpuset,
or sharing the same memory controller.

/proc/pid/oom_adj is changed so that its meaning is rescaled into the
units used by /proc/pid/oom_score_adj, and vice versa.  Changing one of
these per-task tunables will rescale the value of the other to an
equivalent meaning.  Although /proc/pid/oom_adj was originally defined as
a bitshift on the badness score, it now shares the same linear growth as
/proc/pid/oom_score_adj but with different granularity.  This is required
so the ABI is not broken with userspace applications and allows oom_adj to
be deprecated for future removal.

Mel Gorman b898cc7001 vmscan: tracing: add a postprocessing script for reclaim-related ftrace events
Add a simple post-processing script for the reclaim-related trace events.
It can be used to give an indication of how much traffic there is on the
LRU lists and how severe latencies due to reclaim are.  Example output
looks like the following

David Rientjes ad915c432e oom: enable oom tasklist dump by default
The oom killer tasklist dump, enabled with the oom_dump_tasks sysctl, is
very helpful information in diagnosing why a user's task has been killed.
It emits useful information such as each eligible thread's memory usage
that can determine why the system is oom, so it should be enabled by
default.
