6484eb3e2a page allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller knows the node is valid
Callers of alloc_pages_node() can optionally specify -1 as a node to mean
"allocate from the current node".  However, a number of the callers in
fast paths know for a fact their node is valid.  To avoid a comparison and
branch, this patch adds alloc_pages_exact_node() that only checks the nid
with VM_BUG_ON().  Callers that know their node is valid are then
converted.

58568d2a82 cpuset,mm: update tasks' mems_allowed in time
Fix allocating page cache/slab object on the unallowed node when memory
spread is set by updating tasks' mems_allowed after its cpuset's mems is
changed.

In order to update tasks' mems_allowed in time, we must modify the code of
memory policy.  Because the memory policy is applied in the process's
context originally.  After applying this patch, one task directly
manipulates anothers mems_allowed, and we use alloc_lock in the
task_struct to protect mems_allowed and memory policy of the task.

But in the fast path, we didn't use lock to protect them, because adding a
lock may lead to performance regression.  But if we don't add a lock,the
task might see no nodes when changing cpuset's mems_allowed to some
non-overlapping set.  In order to avoid it, we set all new allowed nodes,
then clear newly disallowed ones.

[lee.schermerhorn@hp.com:
  The rework of mpol_new() to extract the adjusting of the node mask to
  apply cpuset and mpol flags "context" breaks set_mempolicy() and mbind()
  with MPOL_PREFERRED and a NULL nodemask--i.e., explicit local
  allocation.  Fix this by adding the check for MPOL_PREFERRED and empty
  node mask to mpol_new_mpolicy().

  Remove the now unneeded 'nodes = NULL' from mpol_new().

  Note that mpol_new_mempolicy() is always called with a non-NULL
  'nodes' parameter now that it has been removed from mpol_new().
  Therefore, we don't need to test nodes for NULL before testing it for
  'empty'.  However, just to be extra paranoid, add a VM_BUG_ON() to
  verify this assumption.]
[lee.schermerhorn@hp.com:

  I don't think the function name 'mpol_new_mempolicy' is descriptive
  enough to differentiate it from mpol_new().

  This function applies cpuset set context, usually constraining nodes
  to those allowed by the cpuset.  However, when the 'RELATIVE_NODES flag
  is set, it also translates the nodes.  So I settled on
  'mpol_set_nodemask()', because the comment block for mpol_new() mentions
  that we need to call this function to "set nodes".

  Some additional minor line length, whitespace and typo cleanup.]

f3b39d47eb cpusets: restructure the function cpuset_update_task_memory_state()
The kernel still allocates the page caches on old node after modifying its
cpuset's mems when 'memory_spread_page' was set, or it didn't spread the
page cache evenly over all the nodes that faulting task is allowed to usr
after memory_spread_page was set.  it is caused by the old mem_allowed and
flags of the task, the current kernel doesn't updates them unless some
function invokes cpuset_update_task_memory_state(), it is too late
sometimes.We must update the mem_allowed and the flags of the tasks in
time.

Slab has the same problem.

The following patches fix this bug by updating tasks' mem_allowed and
spread flag after its cpuset's mems or spread flag is changed.

This patch:

Extract a function from cpuset_update_task_memory_state().  It will be
used later for update tasks' page/slab spread flags after its cpuset's
flag is set

cd6d95d844 clocksource: prevent selection of low resolution clocksourse also for nohz=on
commit 3f68535ada (clocksource: sanity check sysfs clocksource
changes) prevents selection of non high resolution capable
clocksources when high resolution mode is active, but did not take
into account that the same rules apply for highres=off nohz=on.

Check the tick device mode instead of hrtimer_hres_active() to verify
whether the system needs to be protected from a switch to jiffies or
other non highres capable clock sources.

is convenient to move swsusp_shrink_memory() from

d161630297 PM core: rename suspend and resume functions
This patch (as1241) renames a bunch of functions in the PM core.
Rather than go through a boring list of name changes, suffice it to
say that in the end we have a bunch of pairs of functions:

	device_resume_noirq	dpm_resume_noirq
	device_resume		dpm_resume
	device_complete		dpm_complete
	device_suspend_noirq	dpm_suspend_noirq
	device_suspend		dpm_suspend
	device_prepare		dpm_prepare

in which device_X does the X operation on a single device and dpm_X
invokes device_X for all devices in the dpm_list.

In addition, the old dpm_power_up and device_resume_noirq have been
combined into a single function (dpm_resume_noirq).

Lastly, dpm_suspend_start and dpm_resume_end are the renamed versions
of the former top-level device_suspend and device_resume routines.

Rename the functions performing "_noirq" dev_pm_ops
operations from device_power_down() and device_power_up()

The new function names are chosen to show that the functions
are responsible for calling the _noirq() versions to finalize
the suspend/resume operation. The current function names do
not perform power down/up anymore so the names may be misleading.

Global function renames:
- device_power_down() -> device_suspend_noirq()
- device_power_up() -> device_resume_noirq()

Static function renames:
- suspend_device_noirq() -> __device_suspend_noirq()

974802eaa1 perf_counter: Add forward/backward attribute ABI compatibility
Provide for means of extending the perf_counter_attr in a 'natural' way.

We allow growing the structure by appending fields at the end by specifying
the full structure size inside it.

When a new kernel sees a smaller (old) structure, it will 0 pad the tail.
When an old kernel sees a larger (new) structure, it will verify the tail
consists of 0s, otherwise fail.

If we fail due to a size-mismatch, we return -E2BIG and write the kernel's
native attribe size back into the provided structure.

Furthermore, add some attribute verification, so that we'll fail counter
creation when unknown bits are present (PERF_SAMPLE, PERF_FORMAT, or in
the __reserved fields).

(This ABI detail is introduced while keeping the existing syscall ABI.)

ad6561dffa module: trim exception table on init free.
It's theoretically possible that there are exception table entries
which point into the (freed) init text of modules.  These could cause
future problems if other modules get loaded into that memory and cause
an exception as we'd see the wrong fixup.  The only case I know of is
kvm-intel.ko (when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n).

Amerigo fixed this long-standing FIXME in the x86 version, but this
patch is more general.

This implements trim_init_extable(); most archs are simple since they
use the standard lib/extable.c sort code.  Alpha and IA64 use relative
addresses in their fixups, so thier trimming is a slight variation.

Sparc32 is unique; it doesn't seem to define ARCH_HAS_SORT_EXTABLE,
yet it defines its own sort_extable() which overrides the one in lib.
It doesn't sort, so we have to mark deleted entries instead of
actually trimming them.

fddd520122 module_param: allow 'bool' module_params to be bool, not just int.
Impact: API cleanup

For historical reasons, 'bool' parameters must be an int, not a bool.
But there are around 600 users, so a conversion seems like useless churn.

So we use __same_type() to distinguish, and handle both cases.

45fcc70c0b module_param: split perm field into flags and perm
Impact: cleanup

Rather than hack KPARAM_KMALLOCED into the perm field, separate it out.
Since the perm field was 32 bits and only needs 16, we don't add bloat.

9a71af2c36 module_param: invbool should take a 'bool', not an 'int'
It takes an 'int' for historical reasons, and there are only two
users: simply switch it over to bool.

The other user (uvesafb.c) will get a (harmless-on-x86) warning until
the next patch is applied.
