Declaring strings in assembler source involves a certain amount of tedious boilerplate code in order to annotate the resulting symbol correctly. Encapsulating this boilerplate in a macro should help to avoid some duplication and the occasional mistake.

This patch adds some generic macros to reduce boilerplate when declaring certain common structures in arch/arm/mm/*.S Thanks to Russell King for outlining what the define_processor_functions macro could look like.

When auditing the locking in i915_gem.c (for a prospective change which I then abandoned), I noticed two places where struct_mutex is not held across GEM object manipulations that would usually require it. Since one is in initial setup and the other in driver unload, I'm guessing the mutex is not required for either; but post a patch in case it is.

The interface to ->truncate_range is changing very slightly: once "tmpfs: take control of its truncate_range" has been applied, this can be applied. For now there is only a slight inefficiency while this remains unapplied, but it will soon become essential for managing shmem's use of swap. Change i915_gem_object_truncate() to use shmem_truncate_range() directly: which should also spare i915 later change if we switch from inode_operations->truncate_range to file_operations->fallocate.

Soon tmpfs will stop supporting ->readpage and read_cache_page_gfp(): once "tmpfs: add shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp" has been applied, this patch can be applied to ease the transition. Make i915_gem_object_get_pages_gtt() use shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp() in the one place it's needed; elsewhere use shmem_read_mapping_page(), with the mapping's gfp_mask properly initialized. Forget about __GFP_COLD: since tmpfs initializes its pages with memset, asking for a cold page is counter-productive. Include linux/shmem_fs.h also in drm_gem.c: with shmem_file_setup() now declared there too, we shall remove the prototype from linux/mm.h later.

Fix this section mismatch: WARNING: drivers/misc/ioc4.o(.data+0x144): Section mismatch in reference from the variable ioc4_load_modules_work to the function .devinit.text:ioc4_load_modules() The variable ioc4_load_modules_work references the function __devinit ioc4_load_modules() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console This one is potentially fatal; by the time ioc4_load_modules is invoked it may already have been freed. For that reason ioc4_load_modules_work can't be turned to __devinitdata but also because it's referenced in ioc4_exit.

Commit d149e3b2 ("memcg: add the soft_limit reclaim in global direct reclaim") adds a softlimit hook to shrink_zones(). By this, soft limit is called as try_to_free_pages() do_try_to_free_pages() shrink_zones() mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim() Then, direct reclaim is memcg softlimit hint aware, now. But, the memory cgroup's "limit" path can call softlimit shrinker. try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages() do_try_to_free_pages() shrink_zones() mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim() This will cause a global reclaim when a memcg hits limit. This is bug. soft_limit_reclaim() should be called when scanning_global_lru(sc) == true. And the commit adds a variable "total_scanned" for counting softlimit scanned pages....it's not "total". This patch removes the variable and update sc->nr_scanned instead of it. This will affect shrink_slab()'s scan condition but, global LRU is scanned by softlimit and I think this change makes sense. TODO: avoid too much scanning of a zone when softlimit did enough work.

Currently a single process may register exit handlers unlimited times. It may lead to a bloated listeners chain and very slow process terminations. Eg after 10KK sent TASKSTATS_CMD_ATTR_REGISTER_CPUMASKs ~300 Mb of kernel memory is stolen for the handlers chain and "time id" shows 2-7 seconds instead of normal 0.003. It makes it possible to exhaust all kernel memory and to eat much of CPU time by triggerring numerous exits on a single CPU. The patch limits the number of times a single process may register itself on a single CPU to one. One little issue is kept unfixed - as taskstats_exit() is called before exit_files() in do_exit(), the orphaned listener entry (if it was not explicitly deregistered) is kept until the next someone's exit() and implicit deregistration in send_cpu_listeners(). So, if a process registered itself as a listener exits and the next spawned process gets the same pid, it would inherit taskstats attributes.

Under heavy memory and filesystem load, users observe the assertion mapping->nrpages == 0 in end_writeback() trigger. This can be caused by page reclaim reclaiming the last page from a mapping in the following race: CPU0 CPU1 ... shrink_page_list() __remove_mapping() __delete_from_page_cache() radix_tree_delete() evict_inode() truncate_inode_pages() truncate_inode_pages_range() pagevec_lookup() - finds nothing end_writeback() mapping->nrpages != 0 -> BUG page->mapping = NULL mapping->nrpages-- Fix the problem by doing a reliable check of mapping->nrpages under mapping->tree_lock in end_writeback().

We observed the crash point count going negative in cases where the crash point is hit multiple times before the check of "count == 0" is done. Because of this we never call lkdtm_do_action(). This patch just adds a spinlock to protect count.
