Heavy restructuring including locking simplification took place to improve the code base and enable implementation of the unified hierarchy, which currently exists behind a __DEVEL__ mount option.

Another notable change is css (cgroup_subsys_state - what each controller uses to identify and interact with a cgroup) iteration update. This is part of continuing updates on css object lifetime and visibility. cgroup started with reference count draining on removal way back and is now reaching a point where csses behave and are iterated like normal refcnted objects albeit with some complexities to allow distinguishing the state where they're being deleted.

2014-06-08numa,sched: fix load_to_imbalanced logic inversionRik van Riel
This function is supposed to return true if the new load imbalance is worse than the old one. It didn't. I can only hope brown paper bags are in style. Now things converge much better on both the 4 node and 8 node systems. I am not sure why this did not seem to impact specjbb performance on the 4 node system, which is the system I have full-time access to.

2014-06-08Don't trigger congestion wait on dirty-but-not-writeout pagesLinus Torvalds
shrink_inactive_list() used to wait 0.1s to avoid congestion when all the pages that were isolated from the inactive list were dirty but not under active writeback. That makes no real sense, and apparently causes major interactivity issues under some loads since 3.11. The ostensible reason for it was to wait for kswapd to start writing pages, but that seems questionable as well, since the congestion wait code seems to trigger for kswapd itself as well. Also, the logic behind delaying anything when we haven't actually started writeback is not clear - it only delays actually starting that writeback. We'll still trigger the congestion waiting if (a) the process is kswapd, and we hit pages flagged for immediate reclaim (b) the process is not kswapd, and the zone backing dev writeback is actually congested. This probably needs to be revisited, but as it is this fixes a reported regression.

Patch to prevent warning of a buggy compiler when using clang and the ARM_UNWIND option. Clang defines (at least on the current trunk) GNUC, GNUC_MINOR, and GNUC_PATCHLEVEL to 4, 2, and 1 respectively. This version of GCC gets flagged as buggy, but it isn't actually an issue with clang so the patch will do what it did before unless clang is defined and then it will not report the GCC version as an issue.

2014-06-07net: netfilter: LLVMLinux: vlais-netfilterMark Charlebois
Replaced non-standard C use of Variable Length Arrays In Structs (VLAIS) in xt_repldata.h with a C99 compliant flexible array member and then calculated offsets to the other struct members. These other members aren't referenced by name in this code, however this patch maintains the same memory layout and padding as was previously accomplished using VLAIS. Had the original structure been ordered differently, with the entries VLA at the end, then it could have been a flexible member, and this patch would have been a lot simpler. However since the data stored in this structure is ultimately exported to userspace, the order of this structure can't be changed. This patch makes no attempt to change the existing behavior, merely the way in which the current layout is accomplished using standard C99 constructs. As such the code can now be compiled with either gcc or clang. This version of the patch removes the trailing alignment that the VLAIS structure would allocate in order to simplify the patch.

2014-06-07x86/boot: EFI_MIXED should not prohibit loading above 4GMatt Fleming
commit 7d453eee36ae ("x86/efi: Wire up CONFIG_EFI_MIXED") introduced a regression for the functionality to load kernels above 4G. The relevant (incorrect) reasoning behind this change can be seen in the commit message, "The xloadflags field in the bzImage header is also updated to reflect that the kernel supports both entry points by setting both of XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_32 and XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_64 when CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y. XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G is disabled so that the kernel text is guaranteed to be addressable with 32-bits." This is obviously bogus since 32-bit EFI loaders will never place the kernel above the 4G mark. So this restriction is entirely unnecessary. But things are worse than that - since we want to encourage people to always compile with CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y so that their kernels work out of the box for both 32-bit and 64-bit firmware, commit 7d453eee36ae effectively disables XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G completely. Remove the overzealous and superfluous restriction and restore the XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G functionality. Cc: "H.

2014-06-06mm: convert some level-less printks to pr_*Mitchel Humpherys
printk is meant to be used with an associated log level. There are some instances of printk scattered around the mm code where the log level is missing. Add a log level and adhere to suggestions by scripts/checkpatch.pl by moving to the pr_* macros. Also add the typical pr_fmt definition so that print statements can be easily traced back to the modules where they occur, correlated one with another, etc. This will require the removal of some (now redundant) prefixes on a few print statements.

2014-06-06mm: mark remap_file_pages() syscall as deprecatedKirill A. Shutemov
The remap_file_pages() system call is used to create a nonlinear mapping, that is, a mapping in which the pages of the file are mapped into a nonsequential order in memory. The advantage of using remap_file_pages() over using repeated calls to mmap(2) is that the former approach does not require the kernel to create additional VMA (Virtual Memory Area) data structures. Supporting of nonlinear mapping requires significant amount of non-trivial code in kernel virtual memory subsystem including hot paths. Also to get nonlinear mapping work kernel need a way to distinguish normal page table entries from entries with file offset (pte_file). Kernel reserves flag in PTE for this purpose. PTE flags are scarce resource especially on some CPU architectures. It would be nice to free up the flag for other usage. Fortunately, there are not many users of remap_file_pages() in the wild. It's only known that one enterprise RDBMS implementation uses the syscall on 32-bit systems to map files bigger than can linearly fit into 32-bit virtual address space. This use-case is not critical anymore since 64-bit systems are widely available. The plan is to deprecate the syscall and replace it with an emulation. The emulation will create new VMAs instead of nonlinear mappings. It's going to work slower for rare users of remap_file_pages() but ABI is preserved. One side effect of emulation (apart from performance) is that user can hit vm.max_map_count limit more easily due to additional VMAs. See comment for DEFAULT_MAX_MAP_COUNT for more details on the limit. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix spello] Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2014-06-06vmscan: memcg: always use swappiness of the reclaimed memcgMichal Hocko
Memory reclaim always uses swappiness of the reclaim target memcg (origin of the memory pressure) or vm_swappiness for global memory reclaim. This behavior was consistent (except for difference between global and hard limit reclaim) because swappiness was enforced to be consistent within each memcg hierarchy. After "mm: memcontrol: remove hierarchy restrictions for swappiness and oom_control" each memcg can have its own swappiness independent of hierarchical parents, though, so the consistency guarantee is gone. This can lead to an unexpected behavior. Say that a group is explicitly configured to not swapout by memory.swappiness=0 but its memory gets swapped out anyway when the memory pressure comes from its parent with a It is also unexpected that the knob is meaningless without setting the hard limit which would trigger the reclaim and enforce the swappiness. There are setups where the hard limit is configured higher in the hierarchy by an administrator and children groups are under control of somebody else who is interested in the swapout behavior but not necessarily about the memory limit. From a semantic point of view swappiness is an attribute defining anon vs. file proportional scanning of LRU which is memcg specific (unlike charges which are propagated up the hierarchy) so it should be applied to the particular memcg's LRU regardless where the memory pressure comes from. This patch removes vmscan_swappiness() and stores the swappiness into the scan_control structure. mem_cgroup_swappiness is then used to provide the correct value before shrink_lruvec is called. The global vm_swappiness is used for the root memcg.

2014-06-06sysrq: rcu-ify __handle_sysrqRik van Riel
Echoing values into /proc/sysrq-trigger seems to be a popular way to get information out of the kernel. However, dumping information about thousands of processes, or hundreds of CPUs to serial console can result in IRQs being blocked for minutes, resulting in various kinds of cascade failures. The most common failure is due to interrupts being blocked for a very long time. This can lead to things like failed IO requests, and other things the system cannot easily recover from. This problem is easily fixable by making __handle_sysrq use RCU instead of spin_lock_irqsave. This leaves the warning that RCU grace periods have not elapsed for a long time, but the system will come back from that automatically. It also leaves sysrq-from-irq-context when the sysrq keys are pressed, but that is probably desired since people want that to work in situations where the system is already hosed. The callers of register_sysrq_key and unregister_sysrq_key appear to be capable of sleeping.
