5637f2df8d pci-dma: add include/linux/pci-dma.h
This patch adds include/linux/pci-dma.h that defines the pci_unmap state
API:

DECLARE_PCI_UNMAP_ADDR(ADDR_NAME)
DECLARE_PCI_UNMAP_LEN(LEN_NAME)
pci_unmap_addr(PTR, ADDR_NAME)
pci_unmap_addr_set(PTR, ADDR_NAME, VAL)
pci_unmap_len(PTR, LEN_NAME)
pci_unmap_len_set(PTR, LEN_NAME, VAL)

This enables us to remove lots of the duplication in architecture
implementations since there are only two ways to define the API.

If architectures define CONFIG_NEED_DMA_MAP_STATE, they get the real
definition of pci_unmap state API.  If not, they get the noop definition.

In the long term, it's better to replace the API with the generic device
model API such as DECLARE_DMA_UNMAP_ADDR.  We can map the API to the
generic one (like dma-mapping-compat.h does).  This patch also makes the
migration process easier.  We can remove this file after the migration.

It might be simpler to add the API to include/linux/pci.h but looks it's
already too large.  We'll remove pci-dma.h after finishing moving to the
generic device model.  So I put the API to a separate file.

771cb3ecfb um: remove dma_sync_single_range
dma_sync_single_for_cpu/for_device supports a partial sync so there is no
point to have dma_sync_single_range (also dma_sync_single was obsoleted
long ago, replaced with dma_sync_single_for_cpu/for_device).

There is no user of dma_sync_single_range() in mainline and only Alpha
architecture supports dma_sync_single_range().  So it's unlikely that
someone out of the tree uses it.

9705ef7ec8 DMA-API.txt: add dma_sync_single/sg API description
This adds the description of the following eight function:

dma_sync_single_for_cpu
pci_dma_sync_single_for_cpu
dma_sync_single_for_device
pci_dma_sync_single_for_device
dma_sync_sg_for_cpu
pci_dma_sync_sg_for_cpu
dma_sync_sg_for_device
pci_dma_sync_sg_for_device

It was unclear that the API permits a partial sync (some network drivers
already do though).  I made it clear that the sync_single API can do a
partial sync but the sync_sg API can't.

We could do a partial sync with the sync_sg API too, however, it's
difficult for driver writers to correctly use the sync_sg API for a
partial sync since the scatterlists passed in to the mapping API can't be
modified.  It's unlikely that driver writers want to do a partial sync
with the sync_sg API (because the sync_sg API are usually used for block
drivers).  So I think that it's better to forbid a partial sync with the
sync_sg API.

8004fd2ad6 edac: e752x: add dram scrubbing support
Add support to scrub DRAM using the e752x integrated memory scrubbing
engine.  The e7320/7520/e7525 chipsets support scrubbing at one rate while
the i3100 chipset supports a normal and fast rate.

A similar patch was originally sent back in 2008:
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=1204835866.25206.70.camel@localhost.localdomain&forum_name=bluesmoke-devel

This version has the following updates:
- Use 16-bit PCI config cycles to access MCHSCRB register
    e7320/7520/e7525 docs say register is 16bits wide, i3100 says 8.  I
    tested 16bits on the i3100 to be safe.
- Recalcuate and round actual scrub rates

The changes have been tested on an i3100-based board.

dcca7c3d00 edac: mpc85xx improve SDRAM error reporting
Add the ability to detect the specific data line or ECC line which failed
when printing out SDRAM single-bit errors.  An example of a single-bit
SDRAM ECC error is below:

  EDAC MPC85xx MC1: Err Detect Register: 0x80000004
  EDAC MPC85xx MC1: Faulty data bit: 59
  EDAC MPC85xx MC1: Expected Data / ECC:  0x7f80d000_409effa0 / 0x6d
  EDAC MPC85xx MC1: Captured Data / ECC:  0x7780d000_409effa0 / 0x6d
  EDAC MPC85xx MC1: Err addr: 0x00031ca0
  EDAC MPC85xx MC1: PFN: 0x00000031

Knowning which specific data or ECC line caused an error can be useful in
tracking down hardware issues such as improperly terminated signals, loose
pins, etc.

Note that this feature is only currently enabled for 64-bit wide data
buses, 32-bit wide bus support should be added.

I don't have any 32-bit wide systems to test on.  If someone has one and
is willing to give this patch a shot with the check for a 64-bit data bus
removed it would be much appreciated and I can re-submit with both 32 and
64 bit buses supported.

21768639be edac: mpc85xx mask ecc syndrome correctly
With a 64-bit wide data bus only the lowest 8-bits of the ECC syndrome are
relevant.  With a 32-bit wide data bus only the lowest 16-bits are
relevant on most architectures.

Without this change, the ECC syndrome displayed can be mildly confusing,
eg:

  EDAC MPC85xx MC1: syndrome: 0x25252525

When in reality the ECC syndrome is 0x25.

A variety of Freescale manuals say a variety of different things about how
to decode the CAPTURE_ECC (syndrome) register.  I don't have a system with
a 32-bit bus to test on, but I believe the change is correct.  It'd be
good to get an ACK from someone at Freescale about this change though.

13aa9a6b0f pid_ns: zap_pid_ns_processes: use SEND_SIG_NOINFO instead of force_sig()
zap_pid_ns_processes() uses force_sig(SIGKILL) to ensure SIGKILL will be
delivered to sub-namespace inits as well.  This is correct, but we are
going to change force_sig_info() semantics.  See
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15395#c31

We can use send_sig_info(SEND_SIG_NOINFO) instead, since
614c517d7c ("signals: SEND_SIG_NOINFO should
be considered as SI_FROMUSER()") SEND_SIG_NOINFO means "from user" and
therefore send_signal() will get the correct from_ancestor_ns = T flag.

In some cases kipmid can use a lot of CPU.  This adds a way to tune the
CPU used by kipmid to help in those cases.  By setting kipmid_max_busy_us
to a value between 100 and 500, it is possible to bring down kipmid CPU
load to practically 0 without loosing too much ipmi throughput
performance.  Not setting the value, or setting the value to zero,
operation is unaffected.

e34112e396 m32r: use generic ptrace_resume code
Use the generic ptrace_resume code for PTRACE_SYSCALL, PTRACE_CONT,
PTRACE_KILL and PTRACE_SINGLESTEP.  This implies defining
arch_has_single_step in <asm/ptrace.h> and implementing the
user_enable_single_step and user_disable_single_step functions, which also
causes the breakpoint information to be cleared on fork, which could be
considered a bug fix.

Also the TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE thread flag is now cleared on PTRACE_KILL which
it previously wasn't, which is consistent with all architectures using the
modern ptrace code.

The old code only disables the breakpoints on PTRACE_KILL, while after
this patch this also happens for PTRACE_CONT and PTRACE_SYSCALL which
matches the behaviour of the other architetures.  I think this is a
bugfixes, but please double verify this is correct.

The way breakpoints are disabled is entirely inconsistent currently, I
tried to make some sense of it, but I suspect all of the content of
ptrace_disable should be moved into user_disable_single_step, this
defintively needs some revisting as the current patch changes behaviour in
not quite designed ways.

dacbe41f77 ptrace: move user_enable_single_step & co prototypes to linux/ptrace.h
While in theory user_enable_single_step/user_disable_single_step/
user_enable_blockstep could also be provided as an inline or macro there's
no good reason to do so, and having the prototype in one places keeps code
size and confusion down.

Roland said:

  The original thought there was that user_enable_single_step() et al
  might well be only an instruction or three on a sane machine (as if we
  have any of those!), and since there is only one call site inlining
  would be beneficial.  But I agree that there is no strong reason to care
  about inlining it.

  As to the arch changes, there is only one thought I'd add to the
  record.  It was always my thinking that for an arch where
  PTRACE_SINGLESTEP does text-modifying breakpoint insertion,
  user_enable_single_step() should not be provided.  That is,
  arch_has_single_step()=>true means that there is an arch facility with
  "pure" semantics that does not have any unexpected side effects.
  Inserting a breakpoint might do very unexpected strange things in
  multi-threaded situations.  Aside from that, it is a peculiar side
  effect that user_{enable,disable}_single_step() should cause COW
  de-sharing of text pages and so forth.  For PTRACE_SINGLESTEP, all these
  peculiarities are the status quo ante for that arch, so having
  arch_ptrace() itself do those is one thing.  But for building other
  things in the future, it is nicer to have a uniform "pure" semantics
  that arch-independent code can expect.

  OTOH, all such arch issues are really up to the arch maintainer.  As
  of today, there is nothing but ptrace using user_enable_single_step() et
  al so it's a distinction without a practical difference.  If/when there
  are other facilities that use user_enable_single_step() and might care,
  the affected arch's can revisit the question when someone cares about
  the quality of the arch support for said new facility.

867578cbcc memcg: fix oom kill behavior
In current page-fault code,

	handle_mm_fault()
		-> ...
		-> mem_cgroup_charge()
		-> map page or handle error.
	-> check return code.

If page fault's return code is VM_FAULT_OOM, page_fault_out_of_memory() is
called.  But if it's caused by memcg, OOM should have been already
invoked.

Then, I added a patch: a636b327f7.  That
patch records last_oom_jiffies for memcg's sub-hierarchy and prevents
page_fault_out_of_memory from being invoked in near future.

But Nishimura-san reported that check by jiffies is not enough when the
system is terribly heavy.

This patch changes memcg's oom logic as.
 * If memcg causes OOM-kill, continue to retry.
 * remove jiffies check which is used now.
 * add memcg-oom-lock which works like perzone oom lock.
 * If current is killed(as a process), bypass charge.

Something more sophisticated can be added but this pactch does
fundamental things.
TODO:
 - add oom notifier
 - add permemcg disable-oom-kill flag and freezer at oom.
 - more chances for wake up oom waiter (when changing memory limit etc..)

daaf1e6887 memcg: handle panic_on_oom=always case
Presently, if panic_on_oom=2, the whole system panics even if the oom
happend in some special situation (as cpuset, mempolicy....).  Then,
panic_on_oom=2 means painc_on_oom_always.

Now, memcg doesn't check panic_on_oom flag. This patch adds a check.

BTW, how it's useful ?

kdump+panic_on_oom=2 is the last tool to investigate what happens in
oom-ed system.  When a task is killed, the sysytem recovers and there will
be few hint to know what happnes.  In mission critical system, oom should
never happen.  Then, panic_on_oom=2+kdump is useful to avoid next OOM by
knowing precise information via snapshot.

TODO:
 - For memcg, it's for isolate system's memory usage, oom-notiifer and
   freeze_at_oom (or rest_at_oom) should be implemented. Then, management
   daemon can do similar jobs (as kdump) or taking snapshot per cgroup.

d2265e6fa3 memcg : share event counter rather than duplicate
Memcg has 2 eventcountes which counts "the same" event.  Just usages are
different from each other.  This patch tries to reduce event counter.

Now logic uses "only increment, no reset" counter and masks for each
checks.  Softlimit chesk was done per 1000 evetns.  So, the similar check
can be done by !(new_counter & 0x3ff).  Threshold check was done per 100
events.  So, the similar check can be done by (!new_counter & 0x7f)

ALL event checks are done right after EVENT percpu counter is updated.

430e48631e memcg: update threshold and softlimit at commit
Presently, move_task does "batched" precharge.  Because res_counter or
css's refcnt are not-scalable jobs for memcg, try_charge_()..  tend to be
done in batched manner if allowed.

Now, softlimit and threshold check their event counter in try_charge, but
the charge is not a per-page event.  And event counter is not updated at
charge().  Moreover, precharge doesn't pass "page" to try_charge() and
softlimit tree will be never updated until uncharge() causes an event."

So the best place to check the event counter is commit_charge().  This is
per-page event by its nature.  This patch move checks to there.

c62b1a3b31 memcg: use generic percpu instead of private implementation
When per-cpu counter for memcg was implemneted, dynamic percpu allocator
was not very good.  But now, we have good one and useful macros.  This
patch replaces memcg's private percpu counter implementation with generic
dynamic percpu allocator.

The benefits are
	- We can remove private implementation.
	- The counters will be NUMA-aware. (Current one is not...)
	- This patch makes sizeof struct mem_cgroup smaller. Then,
	  struct mem_cgroup may be fit in page size on small config.
        - About basic performance aspects, see below.

 applications. But this result shows this patch has some good effect even
 on (small) SMP.

Here is a test program I used.

 1. fork() processes on each cpus.
 2. do page fault repeatedly on each process.
 3. after 60secs, kill all childredn and exit.

(3 is necessary for getting stable data, this is improvement from previous one.)
