The inode's i_size is not protected by the big kernel lock. Therefore it
does not make sense to recommend taking the BKL in filesystems llseek
operations. Instead it should use the inode's mutex or use just use
i_size_read() instead. Add a note that this is not protecting
file->f_pos.

This patch adds support for moving charge of file pages, which include
normal file, tmpfs file and swaps of tmpfs file. It's enabled by setting
bit 1 of <target cgroup>/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate.
Unlike the case of anonymous pages, file pages(and swaps) in the range
mmapped by the task will be moved even if the task hasn't done page fault,
i.e. they might not be the task's "RSS", but other task's "RSS" that maps
the same file. And mapcount of the page is ignored(the page can be moved
even if page_mapcount(page) > 1). So, conditions that the page/swap
should be met to be moved is that it must be in the range mmapped by the
target task and it must be charged to the old cgroup.

This adds a feature to disable oom-killer for memcg, if disabled, of
course, tasks under memcg will stop.
But now, we have oom-notifier for memcg. And the world around memcg is
not under out-of-memory. memcg's out-of-memory just shows memcg hits
limit. Then, administrator or management daemon can recover the situation
by
- kill some process
- enlarge limit, add more swap.
- migrate some tasks
- remove file cache on tmps (difficult ?)
Unlike oom-killer, you can take enough information before killing tasks.

Considering containers or other resource management softwares in userland,
event notification of OOM in memcg should be implemented. Now, memcg has
"threshold" notifier which uses eventfd, we can make use of it for oom
notification.
This patch adds oom notification eventfd callback for memcg. The usage is
very similar to threshold notifier, but control file is memory.oom_control
and no arguments other than eventfd is required.

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! :)

All application domains that are supported by the old ieee1394 driver
stack are supported by the newer firewire driver stack too. There is
now good and extensive experience with the newer stack from deployment
in Fedora since F7 as well as by enthusiast users of other
distributions.
The new drivers have consequently been recommended as the default ones
since 2.6.33, in order to fix some severe usability problems of FireWire
on Linux due to limitations of the old stack. It is now high time to
announce when the obsolete drivers will be removed.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Bulk endpoint streams were added in the USB 3.0 specification. Streams
allow a device driver to overload a bulk endpoint so that multiple
transfers can be queued at once.
The device then decides which transfer it wants to work on first, and can
queue part of a transfer before it switches to a new stream. All this
switching is invisible to the device driver, which just gets a completion
for the URB. Drivers that use streams must be able to handle URBs
completing in a different order than they were submitted to the endpoint.
This requires adding new API to set up xHCI data structures to support
multiple queues ("stream rings") per endpoint. Drivers will allocate a
number of stream IDs before enqueueing URBs to the bulk endpoints of the
device, and free the stream IDs in their disconnect function. See
Documentation/usb/bulk-streams.txt for details.
The new mass storage device class, USB Attached SCSI Protocol (UASP), uses
these streams API.

ERST is a way provided by APEI to save and retrieve hardware error
record to and from some simple persistent storage (such as flash).
The Linux kernel support implementation is quite simple and workable
in NMI context. So it can be used to save hardware error record into
flash in hardware error exception or NMI handler, where other more
complex persistent storage such as disk is not usable. After saving
hardware error records via ERST in hardware error exception or NMI
handler, the error records can be retrieved and logged into disk or
network after a clean reboot.
For more information about ERST, please refer to ACPI Specification
version 4.0, section 17.4.

While setting up sysrq operation on the XO laptop (which lacks a SysRq
key), i realized that the documentation was quite out of date.
Change documentation of SysRq to reflect current KEY_SYSRQ value.

I have 3 IVC-200 cards (with 4 video channels on each).
2 of the cards identify theirselves as 000[0-3]:a155 (ids already in
cardlist) and another one identifies itself as 080[0-3]:a155, which ids
were unknown so far.
Note - it's IVC-200, not IVC-200G.

Document that odd == top and even == bottom. I can never remember this,
so it is probably worth documenting.
