* new refcount in struct net, controlling actual freeing of the memory * new method in kobj_ns_type_operations (->drop_ns()) * ->current_ns() semantics change - it's supposed to be followed by corresponding ->drop_ns(). For struct net in case of CONFIG_NET_NS it bumps the new refcount; net_drop_ns() decrements it and calls net_free() if the last reference has been dropped. Method renamed to ->grab_current_ns(). * old net_free() callers call net_drop_ns() instead. * sysfs_exit_ns() is gone, along with a large part of callchain leading to it; now that the references stored in ->ns[...] stay valid we do not need to hunt them down and replace them with NULL. That fixes problems in sysfs_lookup() and sysfs_readdir(), along with getting rid of sb->s_instances abuse. Note that struct net *shutdown* logics has not changed - net_cleanup() is called exactly when it used to be called. The only thing postponed by having a sysfs instance refering to that struct net is actual freeing of memory occupied by struct net. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

* set ->s_fs_info in set() callback passed to sget() * allocate the thing and set it up enough for afs_test_super() before making it visible * have it freed in ->kill_sb() (current tree simply leaks it) * have ->put_super() leave ->s_fs_info->volume alone; it's too early for dropping it; do that from ->kill_sb() after having called kill_anon_super().

* allocate ubifs_info in ->mount(), fill it enough for sb_test() and set ->s_fs_info to it in set() callback passed to sget(). * do *not* free it in ->put_super(); do that in ->kill_sb() after we'd done kill_anon_super(). * don't free it in ubifs_fill_super() either - deactivate_locked_super() done by caller when ubifs_fill_super() returns an error will take care of that sucker. * get rid of kludge with passing ubi to ubifs_fill_super() in ->s_fs_info; we only need it in alloc_ubifs_info(), so ubifs_fill_super() will need only ubifs_info. Which it will find in ->s_fs_info just fine, no need to reassign anything... As the result, sb_test() becomes safe to apply to all superblocks that can be found by sget() (and a kludge with temporary use of ->s_fs_info to store a pointer to very different structure goes away).

During converting per-cpu ticker to genirq layer some IRQ initialization code was removed by commit 2cf95304 ("sparc32,leon: per-cpu ticker use genirq per-cpu handler"). This patch reintroduces the code at the same place it was removed from. IRQ12 - IRQ14 will crash on LEON SMP without this patch because it will run the SUN4M IRQ trap handler.

Three new IPIs were introduced by commit ecbc42b7 ("sparc32, sun4m: Implemented SMP IPIs support for SUN4M machines"), the old handler was already prepared for IPIs but handled only IRQ14 and IRQ13, this patch adds support for the new IPI at IRQ12. The IPI trap handler looks at the mask rather than the pending IRQ/IPI, this bug may have masked the problem above, introduced by the same commit.

Unconditionally changing the address limit to USER_DS and not restoring it to its old value in the error path is wrong because it prevents us using kernel memory on repeated calls to this function. This, in fact, breaks the fallback of hard coded paths to the init program from being ever successful if the first candidate fails to load. With this patch applied switching to USER_DS is delayed until the point of no return is reached which makes it possible to have a multi-arch rootfs with one arch specific init binary for each of the (hard coded) probed paths. Since the address limit is already set to USER_DS when start_thread() will be invoked, this redundancy can be safely removed.

When using 64K pages with a separate cpio rootfs, U-Boot will align the rootfs on a 4K page boundary. When the memory is reserved, and subsequent early memblock_alloc is called, it will allocate memory between the 64K page alignment and reserved memory. When the reserved memory is subsequently freed, it is done so by pages, causing the early memblock_alloc requests to be re-used, which in my case, caused the device-tree to be clobbered. This patch forces the reserved memory for initrd to be kernel page aligned, and will move the device tree if it overlaps with the range extension of initrd. This patch will also consolidate the identical function free_initrd_mem() from mm/init_32.c, init_64.c to mm/mem.c, and adds the same range extension when freeing initrd. free_initrd_mem() is also moved to the __init section. Many thanks to Milton Miller for his input on this patch.

This tries to make the 'struct inode' accesses denser in the data cache by moving a commonly accessed field (i_security) closer to other fields that are accessed often. It also makes 'i_state' just an 'unsigned int' rather than 'unsigned long', since we only use a few bits of that field, and moves it next to the existing 'i_flags' so that we potentially get better structure layout (although depending on config options, i_flags may already have packed in the same word as i_lock, so this improves packing only for the case of spinlock debugging) Out 'struct inode' is still way too big, and we should probably move some other fields around too (the acl fields in particular) for better data cache access density. Other fields (like the inode hash) are likely to be entirely irrelevant under most loads. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
