2008-10-20vmscan: Use an indexed array for LRU variablesChristoph Lameter3-29/+63
Currently we are defining explicit variables for the inactive and active list. An indexed array can be more generic and avoid repeating similar code in several places in the reclaim code. We are saving a few bytes in terms of code size: Before: text data bss dec hex filename 4097753 573120 4092484 8763357 85b7dd vmlinux After: text data bss dec hex filename 4097729 573120 4092484 8763333 85b7c5 vmlinux Having an easy way to add new lru lists may ease future work on the reclaim code.

2008-10-20vmscan: move isolate_lru_page() to vmscan.cNick Piggin1-3/+0
On large memory systems, the VM can spend way too much time scanning through pages that it cannot (or should not) evict from memory. Not only does it use up CPU time, but it also provokes lock contention and can leave large systems under memory presure in a catatonic state. This patch series improves VM scalability by: 1) putting filesystem backed, swap backed and unevictable pages onto their own LRUs, so the system only scans the pages that it can/should evict from memory 2) switching to two handed clock replacement for the anonymous LRUs, so the number of pages that need to be scanned when the system starts swapping is bound to a reasonable number 3) keeping unevictable pages off the LRU completely, so the VM does not waste CPU time scanning them. ramfs, ramdisk, SHM_LOCKED shared memory segments and mlock()ed VMA pages are keept on the unevictable list. This patch: isolate_lru_page logically belongs to be in vmscan.c than migrate.c. It is tough, because we don't need that function without memory migration so there is a valid argument to have it in migrate.c. However a subsequent patch needs to make use of it in the core mm, so we can happily move it to vmscan.c. Also, make the function a little more generic by not requiring that it adds an isolated page to a given list. Callers can do that. Note that we now have '__isolate_lru_page()', that does something quite different, visible outside of vmscan.c for use with memory controller. Methinks we need to rationalize these names/purposes. --lts [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix mm/memory_hotplug.c build] Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Lee Schermerhorn <Lee.Schermerhorn@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Add a new mechanism to the composite gadget framework, letting functions deactivate (and reactivate) themselves. Think of it as a refcounted wrapper for the software pullup control. A key example of why to use this mechanism involves functions that require a userspace daemon. Those functions shuld use this new mechanism to prevent the gadget from enumerating until those daemons are activated. Without this mechanism, hosts would see devices that malfunction until the relevant daemons start.

2008-10-18drm: Add GEM ("graphics execution manager") to i915 driver.Eric Anholt3-0/+514
GEM allows the creation of persistent buffer objects accessible by the graphics device through new ioctls for managing execution of commands on the device. The userland API is almost entirely driver-specific to ensure that any driver building on this model can easily map the interface to individual driver requirements. GEM is used by the 2d driver for managing its internal state allocations and will be used for pixmap storage to reduce memory consumption and enable zero-copy GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap, and in the 3d driver is used to enable GL_EXT_framebuffer_object and GL_ARB_pixel_buffer_object.

2008-10-18drm: Rework vblank-wait handling to allow interrupt reduction.Jesse Barnes2-11/+94
Previously, drivers supporting vblank interrupt waits would run the interrupt all the time, or all the time that any 3d client was running, preventing the CPU from sleeping for long when the system was otherwise idle. Now, interrupts are disabled any time that no client is waiting on a vblank event. The new method uses vblank counters on the chipsets when the interrupts are turned off, rather than counting interrupts, so that we can continue to present accurate vblank numbers.

2008-10-17V4L/DVB (9227): MFE: Add multi-frontend mutual exclusionDarron Broad1-2/+4
This add frontend R/W mutual exclusion. Prior to this point in time it was possible to open both frontends simultaneously which an MFE card cannot support. In order to stop this, a delayed open is performed which has the following function: - Return EBUSY after a configurable amount of time if a frontend is unavailable due to the other being in use. - Only allow opening of a frontend if the kernel thread of the other has stopped. This solution was chosen to allow switching between frontends to work as seamlessly as possible. When both frontends are actually opened simultaneously then one will only open, but if quick switching is performed between one of many then the new open will succeed in a clean fashion rather than interrupting a kernel thread.

2008-10-17V4L/DVB (9222): S2API: Add Multiple-frontend on a single adapter support.Steven Toth1-3/+33
A detailed description from the original patches 2 years ago: "The WinTV-HVR3000 has a single transport bus which is shared between a DVB-T and DVB-S modulator. These patches build on the bus acquisition cx88 work from a few weeks ago to add support for this. So to applications the HVR3000 looks like this: /dev/dvb/adapter0/fe0 (cx24123 DVB-S demod) /dev/dvb/adapter0/fe1 (cx22702 DVB-T demod) Additional boards continue as before, eg: /dev/dvb/adapter1/fe0 (lgdt3302 ATSC demod) The basic change is removing the single instance of the videobuf_dvb in cx8802_dev and saa7134_dev(?) and replacing it with a list and some supporting functions. *NOTE* This branch was taken before v4l-dvb was closed for 2.6.19 so two or three current cx88 patches appear to be reversed by this tree, this will be cleaned up in the near future. The patches missing change the mutex handing to core->lock, fix an enumeration problem." It should be recognised that a number of people have been maintaining this patchset. Significant levels of Kudos to everyone one involved, including but not limited to: Darron Broad Fabio M. Di Nitto Carlo Scarfoglio Hans Werner Without the work of these people, and countless others, my two year old patches would of died on the Mercurial linuxtv.org vine a long time ago.

2008-10-17block: fix nr_phys_segments miscalculation bugFUJITA Tomonori1-0/+7
This fixes the bug reported by Nikanth Karthikesan <knikanth@suse.de>: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/10/2/203 The root cause of the bug is that blk_phys_contig_segment miscalculates q->max_segment_size. blk_phys_contig_segment checks: req->biotail->bi_size + next_req->bio->bi_size > q->max_segment_size But blk_recalc_rq_segments might expect that req->biotail and the previous bio in the req are supposed be merged into one segment. blk_recalc_rq_segments might also expect that next_req->bio and the next bio in the next_req are supposed be merged into one segment. In such case, we merge two requests that can't be merged here. Later, blk_rq_map_sg gives more segments than it should. We need to keep track of segment size in blk_recalc_rq_segments and use it to see if two requests can be merged. This patch implements it in the similar way that we used to do for hw merging (virtual merging).

2008-10-16ext4: Replace hackish ext4_mb_poll_new_transaction with commit callbackTheodore Ts'o1-0/+9
The multiblock allocator needs to be able to release blocks (and issue a blkdev discard request) when the transaction which freed those blocks is committed. Previously this was done via a polling mechanism when blocks are allocated or freed. A much better way of doing things is to create a jbd2 callback function and attaching the list of blocks to be freed directly to the transaction structure.
