x86: sysfs: kill owner field from attribute
Tejun's commit 7b595756ec1f49e0049a9e01a1298d53a7faaa15 made sysfs
attribute->owner unnecessary. But the field was left in the structure to
ease the merge. It's been over a year since that change and it is now
time to start killing attribute->owner along with its users - one arch at
a time!
This patch is attempt #1 to get rid of attribute->owner only for
CONFIG_X86_64 or CONFIG_X86_32 . We will deal with other arches later on
as and when possible - avr32 will be the next since that is something I
can test. Compile (make allyesconfig / make allmodconfig / custom config)
and boot tested.
akpm: the idea is that we put the declaration of sttribute.owner inside
`#ifndef CONFIG_X86'. But that proved to be too ambitious for now because
new usages kept on turning up in subsystem trees.

message queues: increase range limits
Increase the range of various posix message queue limits.
Posix gives the message queue user the ability to 'trade off' the maximum
size of messages with the number of possible messages that can be 'in
flight'. Linux currently makes this trade off more restrictive than it
needs to be.
In particular, the maximum message size today can be made no smaller than
8192. This greatly restricts those applications that would like to have
the ability to post large numbers of very small messages.
So this task lowers the limit that the maximum message size can be set to,
from 8192 to 128. It also lowers the limit that the maximum #number of
messages in flight can be set to, from 10 to 1.
With these changes the message queue user can make better trade offs
between #messages and message size, in order to get everything to fit
within the setrlimit(RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE) limit for that particular user.
as the defaults for the max #messages allowed and the max message size
allowed, respectively, for those applications that do not supply these.
Previously, the defaults were hardwired to 10 and 8192, respectively.

kdump: add is_vmcore_usable() and vmcore_unusable()
The usage of elfcorehdr_addr has changed recently such that being set to
ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX is used by is_kdump_kernel() to indicate if the code is
executing in a kernel executed as a crash kernel.
However, arch/ia64/kernel/setup.c:reserve_elfcorehdr will rest
elfcorehdr_addr to ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX on error, which means any subsequent
calls to is_kdump_kernel() will return 0, even though they should return
1.
Ok, at this point in time there are no subsequent calls, but I think its
fair to say that there is ample scope for error or at the very least
confusion.
This patch add an extra state, ELFCORE_ADDR_ERR, which indicates that
elfcorehdr_addr was passed on the command line, and thus execution is
taking place in a crashdump kernel, but vmcore can't be used for some
reason. This is tested for using is_vmcore_usable() and set using
vmcore_unusable(). A subsequent patch makes use of this new code.
To summarise, the states that elfcorehdr_addr can now be in are as follows:
ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX: not a crashdump kernel
ELFCORE_ADDR_ERR: crashdump kernel but vmcore is unusable
any other value: crash dump kernel and vmcore is usable

So even if CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE is not set in second kernel, one should be
able to correctly determine that we are booting after a panic and setup
calgary iommu accordingly.
o So remove the assumption that elfcorehdr_addr is under

o Move definition of elfcorehdr_addr to arch dependent crash files.
(Unfortunately crash dump does not have an arch independent file

All FLATMEM/DISCONTIGMEM/SPARSEMEM and MEMORY_HOTPLUG is supported.
Remove page_cgroup pointer reduces the amount of memory by
- 4 bytes per PAGE_SIZE.
- 8 bytes per PAGE_SIZE
if memory controller is disabled. (even if configured.)
On usual 8GB x86-32 server, this saves 8MB of NORMAL_ZONE memory.
On my x86-64 server with 48GB of memory, this saves 96MB of memory.
I think this reduction makes sense.
By pre-allocation, kmalloc/kfree in charge/uncharge are removed.
This means
- we're not necessary to be afraid of kmalloc faiulre.
(this can happen because of gfp_mask type.)
- we can avoid calling kmalloc/kfree.
- we can avoid allocating tons of small objects which can be fragmented.
- we can know what amount of memory will be used for this extra-lru handling.
I added printk message as
"allocated %ld bytes of page_cgroup"
"please try cgroup_disable=memory option if you don't want"
This patch makes page_cgroup->flags to be atomic_ops and define functions
(and macros) to access it.
Before trying to modify memory resource controller, this atomic operation
on flags is necessary. Most of flags in this patch is for LRU and modfied
under mz->lru_lock but we'll add another flags which is not for LRU soon.
For example, we'll place LOCK bit on flags field. We need atomic
operation to modify LRU bit without LOCK.
I found mem_cgroup_charge_statistics() is a little big (in object) and
does unnecessary address calclation. This patch is for optimization to
reduce the size of this function.
There are not-on-LRU pages which can be mapped and they are not worth to
be accounted. (becasue we can't shrink them and need dirty codes to
handle specical case) We'd like to make use of usual objrmap/radix-tree's
protcol and don't want to account out-of-vm's control pages.
When special_mapping_fault() is called, page->mapping is tend to be NULL
and it's charged as Anonymous page. insert_page() also handles some
special pages from drivers.
This patch is for avoiding to account special pages.
This patch tries to make page->mapping to be NULL before
mem_cgroup_uncharge_cache_page() is called.
"page->mapping == NULL" is a good check for "whether the page is still
radix-tree or not". This patch also adds BUG_ON() to
mem_cgroup_uncharge_cache_page();
While page-cache's charge/uncharge is done under page_lock(), swap-cache
isn't. (anonymous page is charged when it's newly allocated.)
This patch moves do_swap_page()'s charge() call under lock. I don't see
any bad problem *now* but this fix will be good for future for avoiding
unnecessary racy state.

jbd: ordered data integrity fix
In ordered mode, if a file data buffer being dirtied exists in the
committing transaction, we write the buffer to the disk, move it from the
committing transaction to the running transaction, then dirty it. But we
don't have to remove the buffer from the committing transaction when the
buffer couldn't be written out, otherwise it would miss the error and the
committing transaction would not abort.
This patch adds an error check before removing the buffer from the
committing transaction.

ext3: add an option to control error handling on file data
If the journal doesn't abort when it gets an IO error in file data blocks,
the file data corruption will spread silently. Because most of
applications and commands do buffered writes without fsync(), they don't
notice the IO error. It's scary for mission critical systems. On the
other hand, if the journal aborts whenever it gets an IO error in file
data blocks, the system will easily become inoperable. So this patch
introduces a filesystem option to determine whether it aborts the journal
or just call printk() when it gets an IO error in file data.
If you mount a ext3 fs with data_err=abort option, it aborts on file data
write error. If you mount it with data_err=ignore, it doesn't abort, just
call printk(). data_err=ignore is the default.

ext3: fix ext3 block reservation early ENOSPC issue
We could run into ENOSPC error on ext3, even when there is free blocks on
the filesystem.
The problem is triggered in the case the goal block group has 0 free
blocks , and the rest block groups are skipped due to the check of
"free_blocks < windowsz/2". Current code could fall back to non
reservation allocation to prevent early ENOSPC after examing all the block
groups with reservation on , but this code was bypassed if the reservation
window is turned off already, which is true in this case.
This patch fixed two issues:
1) We don't need to turn off block reservation if the goal block group has
0 free blocks left and continue search for the rest of block groups.
Current code the intention is to turn off the block reservation if the
goal allocation group has a few (some) free blocks left (not enough for
make the desired reservation window),to try to allocation in the goal
block group, to get better locality. But if the goal blocks have 0 free
blocks, it should leave the block reservation on, and continues search for
the next block groups,rather than turn off block reservation completely.
2) we don't need to check the window size if the block reservation is off.
The problem was originally found and fixed in ext4.

jbd: don't dirty original metadata buffer on abort
Currently, original metadata buffers are dirtied when they are unfiled
whether the journal has aborted or not. Eventually these buffers will be
written-back to the filesystem by pdflush. This means some metadata
buffers are written to the filesystem without journaling if the journal
aborts. So if both journal abort and system crash happen at the same
time, the filesystem would become inconsistent state. Additionally,
replaying journaled metadata can overwrite the latest metadata on the
filesystem partly. Because, if the journal aborts, journaled metadata are
preserved and replayed during the next mount not to lose uncheckpointed
metadata. This would also break the consistency of the filesystem.
This patch prevents original metadata buffers from being dirtied on abort
by clearing BH_JBDDirty flag from those buffers. Thus, no metadata
buffers are written to the filesystem without journaling.

Increasing the minimum wait time, without changing the total wait time,
improves the fail ratio from a 8% chance that any of the sensors fails in
one read, down to 0.4%, on a Macbook Air. On a Macbook Pro 3,1, the
effect is even more apparent. By reducing the number of status polls, the
ratio is further improved to below 0.1%. Finally, increasing the total

such as flooded logfiles, malfunctioning temperature sensors,
accelerometers failing to initialize, and difficulties getting backlight

The root of the problem seems to be the command protocol. The current
code sends out a command byte, then repeatedly polls for an ack before
continuing to send or recieve data. From experiments leading to this
patch, it seems the command protocol never quite worked or changed so that
one now sends a command byte, waits a little bit, polls for an ack, and if
it fails, repeats the whole thing by sending the command byte again.
This patch implements a send_command function according to the new
