b04ec261bd [PATCH] m32r: __cmpxchg_u32 fix
This patch fixes a bug of include/asm-m32r/system.h:__cmpxchg_u32().

  static __inline__ unsigned long
  __cmpxchg_u32(volatile unsigned int *p, unsigned int old, unsigned int new);

In __cmpxchg_u32(), the "old" value must not be changed to the previous "*p"
value.  But the former code modifies the previous "*p" value.

A deadlock at _atomic_dec_and_lock sometimes happened due to this bug.

aa88861fc3 [PATCH] s390: dasd reference counting
When using the dasd diag discipline, the base discipline module (eckd or fba)
can be unloaded, even though the dasd driver requires both discipline modules
(base and diag) to work correctly.

Implement reference counting for both base and diag discipline modules in
order to fix this.

15c7369178 [PATCH] s390: V=V qdio fixes
Using FCP devices with V=V support, the input queue stalled when CCQ 97 had
been returned in qdio_do_eqbs.  When this happen we have to reissue the eqbs
instruction.

Another bug was when V=V was enabled we checked if hardware has SIGA-sync
support.  If not we returned with 0 from tiqdio_is_inbound_q_done.  Thus qdio
lost initiative on FCP devices and input queue stalled.  Running devices in
V=V there is no SIGA-sync support but nevertheless we have to process
tiqdio_is_inbound_q_done either.

a1909e631c [PATCH] radeonfb: resume support for Samsung P35 laptops
Make resume from suspend-to-ram possible for Samsung P35 laptops.

The radeon mobility 9700 chip on Samsung P35 laptops locks up everything on
resume from suspend-to-ram if it is not reinitialized.

VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 [Mobility Radeon 9600 M10]
Class 0300: 1002:4e50
       Subsystem: 144d:c00c

Unfortunately, the DMI strings are mostly identical for all Samsung
laptops.  So we match the PCI ID and subsystem ID of the graphics card
which is unique for each Samsung laptop model.

c255d844dd [PATCH] suspend-to-ram: allow video options to be set at runtime
Currently, acpi video options can only be set on kernel command line.  That's
little inflexible; I'd like userland s2ram application that just works, and
modifying kernel command line according to whitelist is not fun.  It is better
to just allow s2ram application to set video options just before suspend
(according to the whitelist).

This implements sysctl to allow setting suspend video options without reboot.

9b0f8b040a [PATCH] Terminate process that fails on a constrained allocation
Some allocations are restricted to a limited set of nodes (due to memory
policies or cpuset constraints).  If the page allocator is not able to find
enough memory then that does not mean that overall system memory is low.

In particular going postal and more or less randomly shooting at processes
is not likely going to help the situation but may just lead to suicide (the
whole system coming down).

It is better to signal to the process that no memory exists given the
constraints that the process (or the configuration of the process) has
placed on the allocation behavior.  The process may be killed but then the
sysadmin or developer can investigate the situation.  The solution is
similar to what we do when running out of hugepages.

This patch adds a check before we kill processes.  At that point
performance considerations do not matter much so we just scan the zonelist
and reconstruct a list of nodes.  If the list of nodes does not contain all
online nodes then this is a constrained allocation and we should kill the
current process.

9827b781f2 [PATCH] OOM kill: children accounting
In the badness() calculation, there's currently this piece of code:

        /*
         * Processes which fork a lot of child processes are likely
         * a good choice. We add the vmsize of the children if they
         * have an own mm. This prevents forking servers to flood the
         * machine with an endless amount of children
         */
        list_for_each(tsk, &p->children) {
                struct task_struct *chld;
                chld = list_entry(tsk, struct task_struct, sibling);
                if (chld->mm = p->mm && chld->mm)
                        points += chld->mm->total_vm;
        }

The intention is clear: If some server (apache) keeps spawning new children
and we run OOM, we want to kill the father rather than picking a child.

This -- to some degree -- also helps a bit with getting fork bombs under
control, though I'd consider this a desirable side-effect rather than a
feature.

There's one problem with this: No matter how many or few children there are,
if just one of them misbehaves, and all others (including the father) do
everything right, we still always kill the whole family.  This hits in real
life; whether it's javascript in konqueror resulting in kdeinit (and thus the
whole KDE session) being hit or just a classical server that spawns children.

Sidenote: The killer does kill all direct children as well, not only the
selected father, see oom_kill_process().

The idea in attached patch is that we do want to account the memory
consumption of the (direct) children to the father -- however not fully.
This maintains the property that fathers with too many children will still
very likely be picked, whereas a single misbehaving child has the chance to
be picked by the OOM killer.

In the patch I account only half (rounded up) of the children's vm_size to
the parent.  This means that if one child eats more mem than the rest of
the family, it will be picked, otherwise it's still the father and thus the
whole family that gets selected.

This is heuristics -- we could debate whether accounting for a fourth would
be better than for half of it.  Or -- if people would consider it worth the
trouble -- make it a sysctl.  For now I sticked to accounting for half,
which should IMHO be a significant improvement.

The patch does one more thing: As users tend to be irritated by the choice
of killed processes (mainly because the children are killed first, despite
some of them having a very low OOM score), I added some more output: The
selected (father) process will be reported first and it's oom_score printed
to syslog.

Description:

Only account for half of children's vm size in oom score calculation

This should still give the parent enough point in case of fork bombs.  If
any child however has more than 50% of the vm size of all children
together, it'll get a higher score and be elected.

This patch also makes the kernel display the oom_score.

acpi_rs_get_list_length() needs to account for all the vendor-defined data

which causes slab corruption when we later convert AML to resources and run

may as well.

54330456b2 [PATCH] s390: smp initialization speed
The last changes that introduced the additional_cpus command line parameter
also introduced a regression regarding smp initialization speed.  In
smp_setup_cpu_possible_map() cpu_present_map is set to the same value as
cpu_possible_map.  Especially that means that bits in the present map will be
set for cpus that are not present.  This will cause a slow down in the initial
cpu_up() loop in smp_init() since trying to take cpus online that aren't
present takes a while.

Fix this by setting only bits for present cpus in cpu_present_map and set
cpu_present_map to cpu_possible_map in smp_cpus_done().

37a3302618 [PATCH] s390: possible_cpus parameter
Introduce possible_cpus command line option.  Hard sets the number of bits set
in cpu_possible_map.  Unlike the additional_cpus parameter this one guarantees
that num_possible_cpus() will stay constant even if the system gets rebooted
and a different number of cpus are present at startup.

255acee706 [PATCH] s390: additional_cpus parameter
Introduce additional_cpus command line option.  By default no additional cpu
can be attached to the system anymore.  Only the cpus present at IPL time can
be switched on/off.  If it is desired that additional cpus can be attached to
the system the maximum number of additional cpus needs to be specified with
this option.

This change is necessary in order to limit the waste of per_cpu data
structures.

4bbf39c29b [PATCH] Introduce CONFIG_DEFAULT_MIGRATION_COST
Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> wrote:

  The boot sequence on s390 sometimes takes ages and we spend a very long
  time (up to one or two minutes) in calibrate_migration_costs.  The time
  spent there differs from boot to boot.  Also the calculated costs differ
  a lot.  I've seen differences by up to a factor of 15 (yes, factor not
  percent).  Also I doubt that making these measurements make much sense on
  a completely virtualized architecture where you cannot tell how much cpu
  time you will get anyway.

So introduce the CONFIG_DEFAULT_MIGRATION_COST method for an architecture
to set the scheduler migration costs.  This turns off automatic detection
of migration costs.  Makes sense on virtual platforms, where migration
costs are hard to measure accurately.

b2f49033d8 [PATCH] fix deadlock in ext2
Fix a deadlock possible in the ext2 file system implementation.  This
deadlock occurs when a file is removed from an ext2 file system which was
mounted with the "sync" mount option.

The problem is that ext2_xattr_delete_inode() was invoking the routine,
sync_dirty_buffer(), using a buffer head which was previously locked via
lock_buffer().  The first thing that sync_dirty_buffer() does is to lock
the buffer head that it was passed.  It does this via lock_buffer().  Oops.

The solution is to unlock the buffer head in ext2_xattr_delete_inode()
before invoking sync_dirty_buffer().  This makes the code in
ext2_xattr_delete_inode() obey the same locking rules as all other callers
of sync_dirty_buffer() in the ext2 file system implementation.
