* char: add WARN_ON() in misc_deregister()Akinobu Mita2010-08-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | misc_deregister() returns an error only when it attempts to unregister the device that is not registered. This is the driver's bug. Most of the drivers don't check the return value of misc_deregister(). (It is not bad thing because most of kernel *_unregister() API always succeed and do not return value) So it is better to indicate the error by WARN_ON() in misc_deregister().

* sys_personality: remove the bogus checks in ↵Oleg Nesterov2010-08-101-17/+5Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sys_personality()->__set_personality() path Cleanup, no functional changes. - __set_personality() always changes ->exec_domain/personality, the special case when ->exec_domain remains the same buys nothing but complicates the code. Unify both cases to simplify the code. - The -EINVAL check in sys_personality() was never right. If we assume that set_personality() can fail we should check the value it returns instead of verifying that task->personality was actually changed. Remove it. Before the previous patch it was possible to hit this case due to overflow problems, but this -EINVAL just indicated the kernel bug. OTOH, probably it makes sense to change lookup_exec_domain() to return ERR_PTR() instead of default_exec_domain if the search in exec_domains list fails, and report this error to the user-space. But this means another user-space change, and we have in-kernel users which need fixes. For example, PER_OSF4 falls into PER_MASK for unkown reason and nobody cares to register this domain.

* drivers/misc: support for the pressure sensor BMP085 from Bosch SensortecChristoph Mair2010-08-104-0/+524
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for ROHM BH1780GLI Ambient light sensor. BH1780 supports I2C interface. Driver supports read/update of power state and read of lux value (through SYSFS). Writing value 3 to power_state enables the sensor and current lux value could be read.

* cpuidle: extend cpuidle and menu governor to handle dynamic statesAi Li2010-08-103-7/+51
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On some SoC chips, HW resources may be in use during any particular idle period. As a consequence, the cpuidle states that the SoC is safe to enter can change from idle period to idle period. In addition, the latency and threshold of each cpuidle state can vary, depending on the operating condition when the CPU becomes idle, e.g. the current cpu frequency, the current state of the HW blocks, etc. cpuidle core and the menu governor, in the current form, are geared towards cpuidle states that are static, i.e. the availabiltiy of the states, their latencies, their thresholds are non-changing during run time. cpuidle does not provide any hook that cpuidle drivers can use to adjust those values on the fly for the current idle period before the menu governor selects the target cpuidle state. This patch extends cpuidle core and the menu governor to handle states that are dynamic. There are three additions in the patch and the patch maintains backwards-compatibility with existing cpuidle drivers. 1) add prepare() to struct cpuidle_device. A cpuidle driver can hook into the callback and cpuidle will call prepare() before calling the governor's select function. The callback gives the cpuidle driver a chance to update the dynamic information of the cpuidle states for the current idle period, e.g. state availability, latencies, thresholds, power values, etc. 2) add CPUIDLE_FLAG_IGNORE as one of the state flags. In the prepare() function, a cpuidle driver can set/clear the flag to indicate to the menu governor whether a cpuidle state should be ignored, i.e. not available, during the current idle period. 3) add power_specified bit to struct cpuidle_device. The menu governor currently assumes that the cpuidle states are arranged in the order of increasing latency, threshold, and power savings. This is true or can be made true for static states. Once the state parameters are dynamic, the latencies, thresholds, and power savings for the cpuidle states can increase or decrease by different amounts from idle period to idle period. So the assumption of increasing latency, threshold, and power savings from Cn to C(n+1) can no longer be guaranteed. It can be straightforward to calculate the power consumption of each available state and to specify it in power_usage for the idle period. Using the power_usage fields, the menu governor then selects the state that has the lowest power consumption and that still satisfies all other critieria. The power_specified bit defaults to 0. For existing cpuidle drivers, cpuidle detects that power_specified is 0 and fills in a dummy set of power_usage values.

* hibernation: freeze swap at hibernationKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2010-08-105-26/+84
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When taking a memory snapshot in hibernate_snapshot(), all (directly called) memory allocations use GFP_ATOMIC. Hence swap misusage during hibernation never occurs. But from a pessimistic point of view, there is no guarantee that no page allcation has __GFP_WAIT. It is better to have a global indication "we enter hibernation, don't use swap!". This patch tries to freeze new-swap-allocation during hibernation. (All user processes are frozenm so swapin is not a concern). This way, no updates will happen to swap_map[] between hibernate_snapshot() and save_image(). Swap is thawed when swsusp_free() is called. We can be assured that swap corruption will not occur. Signed-off-by: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: "Rafael J.

* mm: fix corruption of hibernation caused by reusing swap during image savingKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2010-08-101-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since 2.6.31, swap_map[]'s refcounting was changed to show that a used swap entry is just for swap-cache, can be reused. Then, while scanning free entry in swap_map[], a swap entry may be able to be reclaimed and reused. It was caused by commit c9e444103b5e7a5 ("mm: reuse unused swap entry if necessary"). But this caused deta corruption at resume. The scenario is - Assume a clean-swap cache, but mapped. - at hibernation_snapshot[], clean-swap-cache is saved as clean-swap-cache and swap_map[] is marked as SWAP_HAS_CACHE. - then, save_image() is called. And reuse SWAP_HAS_CACHE entry to save image, and break the contents. After resume: - the memory reclaim runs and finds clean-not-referenced-swap-cache and discards it because it's marked as clean. But here, the contents on disk and swap-cache is inconsistent. Hance memory is corrupted. This patch avoids the bug by not reclaiming swap-entry during hibernation. This is a quick fix for backporting. Signed-off-by: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Rafael J.

* mm: avoid resetting wb_start after each writeback roundJan Kara2010-08-101-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | WB_SYNC_NONE writeback is done in rounds of 1024 pages so that we don't write out some huge inode for too long while starving writeout of other inodes. To avoid livelocks, we record time we started writeback in wbc->wb_start and do not write out inodes which were dirtied after this time. But currently, writeback_inodes_wb() resets wb_start each time it is called thus effectively invalidating this logic and making any WB_SYNC_NONE writeback prone to livelocks. This patch makes sure wb_start is set only once when we start writeback.

* vmscan: raise the bar to PAGEOUT_IO_SYNC stallsWu Fengguang2010-08-101-8/+43
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix "system goes unresponsive under memory pressure and lots of dirty/writeback pages" bug. http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/4/4/86 In the above thread, Andreas Mohr described that Invoking any command locked up for minutes (note that I'm talking about attempted additional I/O to the _other_, _unaffected_ main system HDD - such as loading some shell binaries -, NOT the external SSD18M!!). This happens when the two conditions are both meet: - under memory pressure - writing heavily to a slow device OOM also happens in Andreas' system. The OOM trace shows that 3 processes are stuck in wait_on_page_writeback() in the direct reclaim path. One in do_fork() and the other two in unix_stream_sendmsg(). They are blocked on this condition: (sc->order && priority < DEF_PRIORITY - 2) which was introduced in commit 78dc583d (vmscan: low order lumpy reclaim also should use PAGEOUT_IO_SYNC) one year ago. That condition may be too permissive. In Andreas' case, 512MB/1024 = 512KB. If the direct reclaim for the order-1 fork() allocation runs into a range of 512KB hard-to-reclaim LRU pages, it will be stalled. It's a severe problem in three ways. Firstly, it can easily happen in daily desktop usage. vmscan priority can easily go below (DEF_PRIORITY - 2) on _local_ memory pressure. Even if the system has 50% globally reclaimable pages, it still has good opportunity to have 0.1% sized hard-to-reclaim ranges. For example, a simple dd can easily create a big range (up to 20%) of dirty pages in the LRU lists. And order-1 to order-3 allocations are more than common with SLUB. Try "grep -v '1 :' /proc/slabinfo" to get the list of high order slab caches. For example, the order-1 radix_tree_node slab cache may stall applications at swap-in time; the order-3 inode cache on most filesystems may stall applications when trying to read some file; the order-2 proc_inode_cache may stall applications when trying to open a /proc file. Secondly, once triggered, it will stall unrelated processes (not doing IO at all) in the system. This "one slow USB device stalls the whole system" avalanching effect is very bad. Thirdly, once stalled, the stall time could be intolerable long for the users. When there are 20MB queued writeback pages and USB 1.1 is writing them in 1MB/s, wait_on_page_writeback() will stuck for up to 20 seconds. Not to mention it may be called multiple times. So raise the bar to only enable PAGEOUT_IO_SYNC when priority goes below DEF_PRIORITY/3, or 6.25% LRU size. As the default dirty throttle ratio is 20%, it will hardly be triggered by pure dirty pages. We'd better treat PAGEOUT_IO_SYNC as some last resort workaround -- its stall time is so uncomfortably long (easily goes beyond 1s). The bar is only raised for (order < PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER) allocations, which are easy to satisfy in 1TB memory boxes. So, although 6.25% of memory could be an awful lot of pages to scan on a system with 1TB of memory, it won't really have to busy scan that much. Andreas tested an older version of this patch and reported that it mostly fixed his problem. Mel Gorman helped improve it and KOSAKI Motohiro will fix it further in the next patch.
