      scripts/gdb: add empty package initialization script · 586a1a12
      Jan Kiszka authored
      This got lost during the initial merge process: Python requires an
      __init__.py script, even if empty, in order to accept a directory as
      package.  Add it, this time as a non-empty file.

      u8 cannot contain a value larger than 0xff, hence drop the checks.
      Wrapping the checks in unlikely() indicated some sense of humor, though ;-)

      rtc: ds1685: fix ds1685_rtc_alarm_irq_enable build error · 682354d4
      Arnd Bergmann authored
      The newly added ds1685 driver causes a build error when enabled without
      CONFIG_RTC_INTF_DEV:
      
        drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1685.c:919:22: error: 'ds1685_rtc_alarm_irq_enable' undeclared here (not in a function)
          .alarm_irq_enable = ds1685_rtc_alarm_irq_enable,
      
      Apparently the driver was incorrectly changed to reflect the interface
      change from 16380c15 ("RTC: Convert rtc drivers to use the
      alarm_irq_enable method"), which removed the respective #ifdef from all
      other rtc drivers.
      
      This does the same change that was merged for the other drivers before and
      removes the #ifdef, allowing the interrupts to be enabled through the
      in-kernel rtc interface independent of the existence of /dev/rtc.
      
      Fixes: aaaf5fbf ("rtc: add driver for DS1685 family of real time clocks")

      memcg: fix low limit calculation · 4e54dede
      Michal Hocko authored
      A memcg is considered low limited even when the current usage is equal to
      the low limit.  This leads to interesting side effects e.g.
      groups/hierarchies with no memory accounted are considered protected and
      so the reclaim will emit MEMCG_LOW event when encountering them.
      
      Another and much bigger issue was reported by Joonsoo Kim.  He has hit a
      NULL ptr dereference with the legacy cgroup API which even doesn't have
      low limit exposed.  The limit is 0 by default but the initial check fails
      for memcg with 0 consumption and parent_mem_cgroup() would return NULL if
      use_hierarchy is 0 and so page_counter_read would try to dereference NULL.
      
      I suppose that the current implementation is just an overlook because the
      documentation in Documentation/cgroups/unified-hierarchy.txt says:
      
        "The memory.low boundary on the other hand is a top-down allocated
        reserve.  A cgroup enjoys reclaim protection when it and all its
        ancestors are below their low boundaries"
      
      Fix the usage and the low limit comparision in mem_cgroup_low accordingly.
      
      Fixes: 241994ed (mm: memcontrol: default hierarchy interface for memory)

      mm/nommu: fix memory leak · da616534
      Joonsoo Kim authored
      Maxime reported the following memory leak regression due to commit
      dbc8358c ("mm/nommu: use alloc_pages_exact() rather than its own
      implementation").
      
      On v3.19, I am facing a memory leak.  Each time I run a command one page
      is lost.  Here an example with busybox's free command:

        Unable to allocate RAM for process text/data, errno 12 SEGV
      
      This problem happens because we allocate ordered page through
      __get_free_pages() in do_mmap_private() in some cases and we try to free
      individual pages rather than ordered page in free_page_series().  In
      this case, freeing pages whose refcount is not 0 won't be freed to the
      page allocator so memory leak happens.
      
      To fix the problem, this patch changes __get_free_pages() to
      alloc_pages_exact() since alloc_pages_exact() returns
      physically-contiguous pages but each pages are refcounted.
      
      Fixes: dbc8358c ("mm/nommu: use alloc_pages_exact() rather than its own implementation").

      ocfs2: update web page + git tree in documentation · 01945fa2
      Mark Fasheh authored
      We (the Ocfs2 project) recently moved the location of our ocfs2-tools
      git tree and project web page.  The pertinent discussion can be seen
      here:
      
        https://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/ocfs2-devel/2015-February/010579.html
      
      The following patch updates the Ocfs2 documentation in MAINTAINERS,
      ocfs2.txt, and dlmfs.txt.  I added our new official web page, changed
      the location of our tools git tree and removed the link to Joel's
      ancient kernel git tree - Andrew has handled our patches for a while
      now.
