Linus Torvalds authored
Commit dd3932ed ("block: remove BLKDEV_IFL_WAIT") had removed the flag argument to blkdev_issue_flush(), but the ocfs2 merge brought in a new one. It didn't cause a merge conflict, so the merges silently worked out fine, but the result didn't actually compile. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Modify link_mem_sections() to pass in the previous mem_block as a hint to locating the next mem_block. Since they are typically added in order this results in a massive saving in time during boot of a very large system. For example, on a 16TB x86_64 machine, it reduced the total time spent linking all node's memory sections from 1 hour, 27 minutes to 46 seconds.

One call chain getting to kset_find_obj is: link_mem_sections() find_mem_section() kset_find_obj() This is done during boot. The memory sections were added in a linearly increasing order and link_mem_sections tends to utilize them in that same linear order. Introduce a kset_find_obj_hinted which is passed the result of the previous kset_find_obj which it uses for a quick "is the next object our desired object" check before falling back to the old behavior.

It is not reasonably possible to wrap vma->close(). To correctly wrap close would imply calling close on any vmas that remain when sysfs_remove_bin_file is called. Finding the proper lists walking them getting the locking right etc, requires deep knowledge of the mm subsystem and as such would require assistence from the mm subsystem to implement.

A kernel builds fine when FW_LOADER is enabled, whether HOTPLUG is enabled or not, and a kernel config file (make oldconfig) is not changed by this patch.

Instead of adding uio class attributes manually after the uio device has been created and we have sent a uevent to userspace, use the class attribute mechanism. This removes races and makes the code simpler. At the same time don't bother to dynamically allocate a struct class for uio, just declare one statically. Less code is needed and it is easier to set the class parameters.tune the class Signed-off-by: Eric W.

register_chrdev limits uio devices to 256 minor numbers which causes problems on one system I have with 384+ uio devices. So instead set UIO_MAX_DEVICES to the maximum number of minors and use alloc_chrdev_region to reserve the uio minors. The final result is that the code works the same but the uio driver now supports any minor the idr allocator comes up with. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

I have some systems which need legacy sysfs due to old tools that are making assumptions that a directory can never be a symlink to another directory, and it's a big hazzle to compile separate kernels for them. This patch turns CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED into a run time option that can be switched on/off the kernel command line. This way the same binary can be used in both cases with just a option on the command line. The old CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 option is still there to set the default. I kept the weird name to not break existing config files. Also the compat code can be still completely disabled by undefining CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_SWITCH -- just the optimizer takes care of this now instead of lots of ifdefs. This makes the code look nicer. v2: This is an updated version on top of Kay's patch to only handle the block devices. I tested it on my old systems and that seems to work.
