Commit 9256a478 fixed a deadlock condition, being sure that the buddy list spinlock is always taken before the page spinlock. However in zbud_free_and_delist() locking order is the opposite (page lock -> list lock). Possible unsafe locking scenario (reported by lockdep): CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(&(&zbpg->lock)->rlock); lock(zbud_budlists_spinlock); lock(&(&zbpg->lock)->rlock); lock(zbud_budlists_spinlock); Fix by grabbing the locks in opposite order in zbud_free_and_delist().

netif_rx is meant to be called from interrupts because it doesn't wake up ksoftirqd. For calling from outside interrupts, netif_rx_ni exists. This stops the error "NOHZ: local_softirq_panding 08" that happens on some machines with NOHZ and plip --- it is caused by the fact that softirq is pending and ksoftirqd is sleeping.

Ramster can't be a module (yet) and depends on CONFIGFS_FS=y, but allmodconfig builds with CONFIGFS_FS=m, which breaks the build. And forcing CONFIGFS_FS=y with select breaks the build in other ways. So just don't build ramster unless CONFIGFS_FS=y. Also, while we're here, add a comment as to why BROKEN is depended.

In drivers/staging/rtl8192e/rtllib_softmac.c::rtllib_rx_assoc_resp() we allocate memory for 'network' with kzalloc() and then proceed to zero the already zeroed mem we got from kzalloc() with memset(). That's redundant, so remove the memset() We also fail to kfree() the memory we allocated for 'network' if we do not enter if (ieee->current_network.qos_data.supported == 1) { and the variable then goes out of scope. To fix that I simply moved the kfree() that was inside that 'if' statement to instead be just after it. It then covers both the case where we take the branch and when we don't.

RAMster implements peer-to-peer transcendent memory, allowing a "cluster" of kernels to dynamically pool their RAM. This patch adds new files necessary for ramster support: The file ramster.h declares externs and some pampd bitfield manipulation. The file zcache.h declares some zcache functions that now must be accessed from the ramster glue code. The file r2net.c is the glue between zcache and the messaging layer, providing routines called from zcache that initiate messages, and routines that handle messages by calling zcache. TODO explains future plans for merging. Signed-off-by: Dan Magenheimer <dan.magenheimer@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

RAMster implements peer-to-peer transcendent memory, allowing a "cluster" of kernels to dynamically pool their RAM. This patch incorporates changes transforming zcache to work with a remote store. In tmem.[ch], new "repatriate" (provoke async get) and "localify" (handle incoming data resulting from an async get) routines combine with a handful of changes to existing pamops interfaces allow the generic tmem code to support asynchronous operations. Also, a new tmem_xhandle struct groups together key information that must be passed to remote tmem stores. Zcache-main.c is augmented with a large amount of ramster-specific code to handle remote operations and "foreign" pages on both ends of the "remotify" protocol. New "foreign" pools are auto-created on demand. A "selfshrinker" thread periodically repatriates remote persistent pages when local memory conditions allow. For certain operations, a queue is necessary to guarantee strict ordering as out-of-order puts/flushes can cause strange race conditions. Pampd pointers now either point to local memory OR describe a remote page; to allow the same 64-bits to describe either, the LSB is used to differentiate. Some acrobatics must be performed to ensure local memory is available to handle a remote persistent get, or deal with the data directly anyway if the malloc failed. Lots of ramster-specific statistics are available via sysfs. Note: Some debug ifdefs left in for now.

RAMster implements peer-to-peer transcendent memory, allowing a "cluster" of kernels to dynamically pool their RAM. Zcache is in the process of converting allocators, from xvmalloc to zsmalloc. Further, RAMster V5 testing to date has been done only with xvmalloc. To avoid merging problems, a linux-3.2 copy of xvmalloc is incorporated by this patch. Later patches will be able to eliminate xvmalloc and use zsmalloc. Signed-off-by: Dan Magenheimer <dan.magenheimer@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

RAMster implements peer-to-peer transcendent memory, allowing a "cluster" of kernels to dynamically pool their RAM. This patch copies files from drivers/staging/zcache. RAMster compresses pages locally before transmitting them to another node, so we can leverage the zcache and tmem code directly. Note: there are no ramster-specific changes yet to these files. (Why copy? The ramster tmem.c/tmem.h changes are definitely shareable between zcache and ramster; the eventual destination for tmem.c is the linux lib directory. Ramster changes to zcache are more substantial and zcache is currently undergoing some significant unrelated changes (including a new allocator and breaking zcache-main.c into smaller files), so it seemed best to branch temporarily and merge later.)

RAMster implements peer-to-peer transcendent memory, allowing a "cluster" of kernels to dynamically pool their RAM. This patch provides the cluster and messaging foundation for RAMster, implementing the basic cluster discovery, mapping, heartbeat / keepalive, and messaging ("r2net") that RAMster requires for internode communication. This code heavily leverages code from the ocfs2 cluster layer but has been extended, interfaces to userland changed, and external functions renamed so that RAMster and ocfs2 can co-exist in the kernel and userland.

There are two members of pr_ctxt allocated during bridge_open that are never freed resulting in memory leaks, these are stream_id and node_id, they are now freed on release of the handle (bridge_release) right before freeing pr_ctxt. Error path for bridge_open was also fixed since the same variables could result in memory leaking due to missing handling of failure scenarios. While at it, the indentation changes were introduced to avoid interleaved goto statements inside big if blocks.

zram accepts number of devices to be created as a module parameter. This was renamed from num_devices to zram_num_devices (without updating the documentation!) since num_devices was declared as a non-static global variable, polluting the global namespace. Now, we declare it as a static variable and revert back the name change. The documentation (zram.txt) already mentions num_devices as the module parameter name.
