461a9afff5 [PATCH] x86: add a bootparameter to reserve high linear address space
Add a boot parameter to reserve high linear address space for hypervisors.
This is necessary to allow dynamically loaded hypervisor modules, which might
not happen until userspace is already running, and also provides a useful tool
to benchmark the performance impact of reduced lowmem address space.

0ff38490c8 [PATCH] zone_reclaim: dynamic slab reclaim
Currently one can enable slab reclaim by setting an explicit option in
/proc/sys/vm/zone_reclaim_mode.  Slab reclaim is then used as a final
option if the freeing of unmapped file backed pages is not enough to free
enough pages to allow a local allocation.

However, that means that the slab can grow excessively and that most memory
of a node may be used by slabs.  We have had a case where a machine with
46GB of memory was using 40-42GB for slab.  Zone reclaim was effective in
dealing with pagecache pages.  However, slab reclaim was only done during
global reclaim (which is a bit rare on NUMA systems).

This patch implements slab reclaim during zone reclaim.  Zone reclaim
occurs if there is a danger of an off node allocation.  At that point we

1. Shrink the per node page cache if the number of pagecache
   pages is more than min_unmapped_ratio percent of pages in a zone.

2. Shrink the slab cache if the number of the nodes reclaimable slab pages
   (patch depends on earlier one that implements that counter)
   are more than min_slab_ratio (a new /proc/sys/vm tunable).

The shrinking of the slab cache is a bit problematic since it is not node
specific.  So we simply calculate what point in the slab we want to reach
(current per node slab use minus the number of pages that neeed to be
allocated) and then repeately run the global reclaim until that is
unsuccessful or we have reached the limit.  I hope we will have zone based
slab reclaim at some point which will make that easier.

The default for the min_slab_ratio is 5%

Also remove the slab option from /proc/sys/vm/zone_reclaim_mode.

00e4d116a7 [DCCP]: Allow default/fallback service code.
This has been discussed on dccp@vger and removes the necessity for applications
to supply service codes in each and every case.

If an application does not want to provide a service code, that's fine, it will
be given 0. Otherwise, service codes can be set via socket options as before.

This patch has been tested using various client/server configurations
(including listening on multiple service codes).

Received from Mark Salyzyn:

This patch to the driver's documentation adds a few new product entries,
sorts the entries on OEM lines first for easy searching, followed by
product id order to make it easier to compare against the open source
pci list. The driver has 'family match' so is somewhat future proof, no
code changes are required to recognize the new products.

79e453d49b Revert mmiocfg heuristics and blacklist changes
This reverts commits 11012d419c and
40dd2d20f2, which allowed us to use the
MMIO accesses for PCI config cycles even without the area being marked
reserved in the e820 memory tables.

Those changes were needed for EFI-environment Intel macs, but broke some
newer Intel 965 boards, so for now it's better to revert to our old
2.6.17 behaviour and at least avoid introducing any new breakage.

Andi Kleen has a set of patches that work with both EFI and the broken
Intel 965 boards, which will be applied once they get wider testing.

1883c5aba9 [PATCH] cciss: version update, new hw
Add support for new hardware and bumps the version to 3.6.10.  It seems
there were several changes introduced including soft_irq.  I decided to
bump the major number to reflect these changes.  Since we're still
supporting older vendor kernels I need some way differentiate between
kernel versions <=2.6.10 and newer kernels >=2.6.16.

354332ee44 [PATCH] x86: reserve a boot-loader ID number for Xen
Claim an ID number for Xen in the LOADER_TYPE field.

Also, keep the table in zero-page.txt consistent with boot.txt.

[hpa says: 6 was skipped because I couldn't rule out that it hadn't been
 unofficially used.  It seemed easier to skip it for now.]

af45f32d25 [PATCH] We can not allow anonymous contributions to the kernel
The DCO does not mean anything if we allow anonymous contributors to the
kernel.  As this is an open source project, we need to do everything in the
open.
