For some mysterious reason, certain hardware reacts badly to usual EH actions while the system is going for suspend. As the devices won't be needed until the system is resumed, ask EH to skip usual autopsy and recovery and proceed directly to suspend. Signed-off-by:

When under significant memory pressure, a process enters direct reclaim and immediately afterwards tries to allocate a page. If it fails and no further progress is made, it's possible the system will go OOM. However, on systems with large amounts of memory, it's possible that a significant number of pages are on per-cpu lists and inaccessible to the calling process. This leads to a process entering direct reclaim more often than it should increasing the pressure on the system and compounding the problem. This patch notes that if direct reclaim is making progress but allocations are still failing that the system is already under heavy pressure. In this case, it drains the per-cpu lists and tries the allocation a second time before continuing. Signed-off-by:

mm: page allocator: calculate a better estimate of NR_FREE_PAGES when memory is low and kswapd is awake Ordinarily watermark checks are based on the vmstat NR_FREE_PAGES as it is cheaper than scanning a number of lists. To avoid synchronization overhead, counter deltas are maintained on a per-cpu basis and drained both periodically and when the delta is above a threshold. On large CPU systems, the difference between the estimated and real value of NR_FREE_PAGES can be very high. If NR_FREE_PAGES is much higher than number of real free page in buddy, the VM can allocate pages below min watermark, at worst reducing the real number of pages to zero. Even if the OOM killer kills some victim for freeing memory, it may not free memory if the exit path requires a new page resulting in livelock. This patch introduces a zone_page_state_snapshot() function (courtesy of Christoph) that takes a slightly more accurate view of an arbitrary vmstat counter. It is used to read NR_FREE_PAGES while kswapd is awake to avoid the watermark being accidentally broken. The estimate is not perfect and may result in cache line bounces but is expected to be lighter than the IPI calls necessary to continually drain the per-cpu counters while kswapd is awake.

When allocating a page, the system uses NR_FREE_PAGES counters to determine if watermarks would remain intact after the allocation was made. This check is made without interrupts disabled or the zone lock held and so is race-prone by nature. Unfortunately, when pages are being freed in batch, the counters are updated before the pages are added on the list. During this window, the counters are misleading as the pages do not exist yet. When under significant pressure on systems with large numbers of CPUs, it's possible for processes to make progress even though they should have been stalled. This is particularly problematic if a number of the processes are using GFP_ATOMIC as the min watermark can be accidentally breached and in extreme cases, the system can livelock. This patch updates the counters after the pages have been added to the list. This makes the allocator more cautious with respect to preserving the watermarks and mitigates livelock possibilities.

Tests with recent firmware on Intel X25-M 80GB and OCZ Vertex 60GB SSDs show a shift since I last tested in December: in part because of firmware updates, in part because of the necessary move from barriers to awaiting completion at the block layer. While discard at swapon still shows as slightly beneficial on both, discarding 1MB swap cluster when allocating is now disadvanteous: adds 25% overhead on Intel, adds 230% on OCZ (YMMV). Surrender: discard as presently implemented is more hindrance than help for swap; but might prove useful on other devices, or with improvements. So continue to do the discard at swapon, but make discard while swapping conditional on a SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD to sys_swapon() (which has been using only the lower 16 bits of int flags). We can add a --discard or -d to swapon(8), and a "discard" to swap in /etc/fstab: matching the mount option for btrfs, ext4, fat, gfs2, nilfs2. Signed-off-by:

The swap code already uses synchronous discards, no need to add I/O barriers. This fixes the worst of the terrible slowdown in swap allocation for hibernation, reported on 2.6.35 by Nigel Cunningham; but does not entirely eliminate that regression.

Move the hibernation check from scan_swap_map() into try_to_free_swap(): to catch not only the common case when hibernation's allocation itself triggers swap reuse, but also the less likely case when concurrent page reclaim (shrink_page_list) might happen to try_to_free_swap from a page. Hibernation already clears __GFP_IO from the gfp_allowed_mask, to stop reclaim from going to swap: check that to prevent swap reuse too. Signed-off-by:

Please revert 2.6.36-rc commit d2997b10 "hibernation: freeze swap at hibernation". It complicated matters by adding a second swap allocation path, just for hibernation; without in any way fixing the issue that it was intended to address - page reclaim after fixing the hibernation image might free swap from a page already imaged as swapcache, letting its swap be reallocated to store a different page of the image: resulting in data corruption if the imaged page were freed as clean then swapped back in. Pages freed to si->swap_map were still in danger of being reallocated by the alternative allocation path. I guess it inadvertently fixed slow SSD swap allocation for hibernation, as reported by Nigel Cunningham: by missing out the discards that occur on the usual swap allocation path; but that was unintentional, and needs a separate fix.

I have been seeing problems on Tegra 2 (ARMv7 SMP) systems with HIGHMEM enabled on 2.6.35 (plus some patches targetted at 2.6.36 to perform cache maintenance lazily), and the root cause appears to be that the mm bouncing code is calling flush_dcache_page before it copies the bounce buffer into the bio. The bounced page needs to be flushed after data is copied into it, to ensure that architecture implementations can synchronize instruction and data caches if necessary. Signed-off-by:

Replace the arbitrary software-reset call from the device-probe method, because: - It is defective. To work correctly, it should be two byte writes, not a single word write. As it stands, it does nothing. - Some devices with sx150x expanders installed have their NRESET pins ganged on the same line, so resetting one causes the others to reset - not a nice thing to do arbitrarily! - The probe, usually taking place at boot, implies a recent hard-reset, so a software reset at this point is just a waste of energy anyway. Therefore, make it optional, defaulting to off, as this will match the common case of probing at powerup and also matches the current broken no-op behavior. Signed-off-by:

Iram reported that compaction's too_many_isolated() loops forever. (http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg08123.html) The meminfo when the situation happened was inactive anon is zero. That's because the system has no memory pressure until then. While all anon pages were in the active lru, compaction could select active lru as well as inactive lru. That's a different thing from vmscan's isolated. So we has been two too_many_isolated. While compaction can isolate pages in both active and inactive, current implementation of too_many_isolated only considers inactive. It made Iram's problem. This patch handles active and inactive fairly. That's because we can't expect where from and how many compaction would isolated pages. This patch changes (nr_isolated > nr_inactive) with nr_isolated > (nr_active + nr_inactive) / 2. Signed-off-by:

Commit 74641f58 ("alpha: binfmt_aout fix") (May 2009) introduced a regression - binfmt_misc is now consulted after binfmt_elf, which will unfortunately break ia32el. ia32 ELF binaries on ia64 used to be matched using binfmt_misc and executed using wrapper. As 32bit binaries are now matched by binfmt_elf before bindmt_misc kicks in, the wrapper is ignored. The fix increases precedence of binfmt_misc to the original state. Signed-off-by:

The pte_same check is reliable only if the swap entry remains pinned (by the page lock on swapcache). We've also to ensure the swapcache isn't removed before we take the lock as try_to_free_swap won't care about the page pin. One of the possible impacts of this patch is that a KSM-shared page can point to the anon_vma of another process, which could exit before the page is freed. This can leave a page with a pointer to a recycled anon_vma object, or worse, a pointer to something that is no longer an anon_vma. [riel@redhat.com: changelog help] Signed-off-by:

If suspend called when kmmcd is doing host->ops->disable, as kmmcd already increased host->en_dis_recurs to 1, the mmc_host_enable in suspend function will return directly without increase the nesting_cnt, which will cause the followed register access carried out to the disabled host. mmc_suspend_host will enable host itself. No need to enable host before it. Also works on kmmcd will get flushed in mmc_suspend_host, enable host after it will be safe. So make the mmc_host_enable after it.
