Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f22 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.
This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

lguest is a simple hypervisor for Linux on Linux. Unlike kvm it doesn't need
VT/SVM hardware. Unlike Xen it's simply "modprobe and go". Unlike both, it's
5000 lines and self-contained.
Performance is ok, but not great (-30% on kernel compile). But given its
hackability, I expect this to improve, along with the paravirt_ops code which
it supplies a complete example for. There's also a 64-bit version being
worked on and other craziness.
But most of all, lguest is awesome fun! Too much of the kernel is a big ball

which scream "fork me!".

We measure acquisition and contention bouncing.
This is done by recording a cpu stamp in each lock instance.
Contention bouncing requires the cpu stamp to be set on acquisition. Hence we
move __acquired into the generic path.
__acquired is then used to measure acquisition bouncing by comparing the
current cpu with the old stamp before replacing it.
__contended is used to measure contention bouncing (only useful for preemptable
locks)

Introduce the core lock statistics code.
Lock statistics provides lock wait-time and hold-time (as well as the count
of corresponding contention and acquisitions events). Also, the first few
call-sites that encounter contention are tracked.
Lock wait-time is the time spent waiting on the lock. This provides insight
into the locking scheme, that is, a heavily contended lock is indicative of
a too coarse locking scheme.
Lock hold-time is the duration the lock was held, this provides a reference for
the wait-time numbers, so they can be put into perspective.
1)
lock
2)
... do stuff ..
unlock
3)
The time between 1 and 2 is the wait-time. The time between 2 and 3 is the
hold-time.
The lockdep held-lock tracking code is reused, because it already collects locks
into meaningful groups (classes), and because it is an existing infrastructure
for lock instrumentation.
Currently lockdep tracks lock acquisition with two hooks:
lock()
lock_acquire()
_lock()
... code protected by lock ...
unlock()
lock_release()
_unlock()
We need to extend this with two more hooks, in order to measure contention.
lock_contended() - used to measure contention events
lock_acquired() - completion of the contention
These are then placed the following way:
lock()
lock_acquire()
if (!_try_lock())
lock_contended()
_lock()
lock_acquired()
... do locked stuff ...
unlock()
lock_release()
_unlock()
(Note: the try_lock() 'trick' is used to avoid instrumenting all platform
dependent lock primitive implementations.)
It is also possible to toggle the two lockdep features at runtime using:
/proc/sys/kernel/prove_locking
/proc/sys/kernel/lock_stat
(esp. turning off the O(n^2) prove_locking functionaliy can help)

Use the lockdep infrastructure to track lock contention and other lock
statistics.
It tracks lock contention events, and the first four unique call-sites that
encountered contention.
It also measures lock wait-time and hold-time in nanoseconds. The minimum and
maximum times are tracked, as well as a total (which together with the number
of event can give the avg).
All statistics are done per lock class, per write (exclusive state) and per read
(shared state).
The statistics are collected per-cpu, so that the collection overhead is
minimized via having no global cachemisses.
This new lock statistics feature is independent of the lock dependency checking
traditionally done by lockdep; it just shares the lock tracking code. It is
also possible to enable both and runtime disabled either component - thereby
avoiding the O(n^2) lock chain walks for instance.
This patch:
raw_spinlock_t should not use lockdep (and doesn't) since lockdep itself
relies on it.

Stackable file systems, among others, frequently need to lookup paths or
path components starting from an arbitrary point in the namespace
(identified by a dentry and a vfsmount). Currently, such file systems use
lookup_one_len, which is frowned upon [1] as it does not pass the lookup
intent along; not passing a lookup intent, for example, can trigger BUG_ON's
when stacking on top of NFSv4.
The first patch introduces a new lookup function to allow lookup starting
from an arbitrary point in the namespace. This approach has been suggested
by Christoph Hellwig [2].
The second patch changes sunrpc to use vfs_path_lookup.
The third patch changes nfsctl.c to use vfs_path_lookup.
The fourth patch marks link_path_walk static.
The fifth, and last patch, unexports path_walk because it is no longer
unnecessary to call it directly, and using the new vfs_path_lookup is
cleaner.
For example, the following snippet of code, looks up "some/path/component"
in a directory pointed to by parent_{dentry,vfsmnt}:
err = vfs_path_lookup(parent_dentry, parent_vfsmnt,
"some/path/component", 0, &nd);
if (!err) {
/* exits */
...
/* once done, release the references */
path_release(&nd);
} else if (err == -ENOENT) {
/* doesn't exist */
} else {
/* other error */
}
VFS functions such as lookup_create can be used on the nameidata structure
to pass the create intent to the file system.

where the stack should be, we move it downwards.
It is a bit peculiar in that we have one task with two mm's, one of which is

The purpose of audit_bprm() is to log the argv array to a userspace daemon at
the end of the execve system call. Since user-space hasn't had time to run,
this array is still in pristine state on the process' stack; so no need to
copy it, we can just grab it from there.
In order to minimize the damage to audit_log_*() copy each string into a
temporary kernel buffer first.
Currently the audit code requires that the full argument vector fits in a
single packet. So currently it does clip the argv size to a (sysctl) limit,
but only when execve auditing is enabled.
If the audit protocol gets extended to allow for multiple packets this check
can be removed.

I realise jprobes are a razor-blades-included type of interface, but that

struct jprobe jp = { .kp.symbol_name = "foo", .entry = "jprobe_foo" };
And then his kernel exploded. Oops.
This patch adds an arch hook, arch_deref_entry_point() (I don't like it
either) which takes the void * in a struct jprobe, and gives back the text
address that it represents.
We can then use that in register_jprobe() to check that the entry point we're

I've left a do-nothing version so that out-of-tree jprobes code will still
compile without modifications.

Currently jprobe.entry is a kprobe_opcode_t *, but that's a lie. On some
platforms it doesn't point to an opcode at all, it points to a function
descriptor.
It's really a pointer to something that the arch code can turn into a function
entry point. And that's what actually happens, none of the generic code ever
looks at jprobe.entry, it's only ever dereferenced by arch code.
So just make it a void *.

Rename some file_ra_state variables and remove some accessors.
It results in much simpler code.
Kudos to Rusty!

Split ondemand readahead interface into two functions. I think this makes it
a little clearer for non-readahead experts (like Rusty).
Internally they both call ondemand_readahead(), but the page argument is
changed to an obvious boolean flag.

Share the same page flag bit for PG_readahead and PG_reclaim.
One is used only on file reads, another is only for emergency writes. One
is used mostly for fresh/young pages, another is for old pages.
Combinations of possible interactions are:
a) clear PG_reclaim => implicit clear of PG_readahead
it will delay an asynchronous readahead into a synchronous one
it actually does _good_ for readahead:
the pages will be reclaimed soon, it's readahead thrashing!
in this case, synchronous readahead makes more sense.
b) clear PG_readahead => implicit clear of PG_reclaim
one(and only one) page will not be reclaimed in time
it can be avoided by checking PageWriteback(page) in readahead first
c) set PG_reclaim => implicit set of PG_readahead
will confuse readahead and make it restart the size rampup process
it's a trivial problem, and can mostly be avoided by checking
PageWriteback(page) first in readahead
d) set PG_readahead => implicit set of PG_reclaim
PG_readahead will never be set on already cached pages.
PG_reclaim will always be cleared on dirtying a page.
so not a problem.
In summary,
a) we get better behavior
b,d) possible interactions can be avoided
c) racy condition exists that might affect readahead, but the chance
is _really_ low, and the hurt on readahead is trivial.
Compound pages also use PG_reclaim, but for now they do not interact with
reclaim/readahead code.
