percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -&gt; slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Add vmemmap_alloc_block_buf for mem map only.

It will fallback to the old way if it cannot get a block that big.

Before this patch, when a node have 128g ram installed, memmap are
split into two parts or more.

Finally we can use early_res to replace bootmem for x86_64 now.

Still can use CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM to enable it or not.

-v2: fix 32bit compiling about MAX_DMA32_PFN

Finally we can use early_res to replace bootmem for x86_64 now.

Still can use CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM to enable it or not.

To initialize hotadded node, some pages are allocated.  At that time, the
node hasn't memory, this makes the allocation always fail.  In such case,
let's allocate pages from other nodes.

It's insufficient to simply compare node ids when warning about offnode
page_structs since it's possible to still have local affinity.

Remove all clameter@sgi.com addresses from the kernel tree since they will
become invalid on June 27th.  Change my maintainer email address for the
slab allocators to cl@linux-foundation.org (which will be the new email

<title>mm/sparse-vmemmap.c: make sure init_mm is included</title>

mm/sparse-vmemmap.c uses init_mm in some places.  However, it is not
present in any of the headers currently included in the file.

init_mm is defined as extern in sched.h, so we add it to the headers list

Up to now, this problem was masked by the fact that functions like
set_pte_at() and pmd_populate_kernel() are usually macros that expand to
simpler variants that does not use the first parameter at all.

<title>memory hotplug: Hot-add with sparsemem-vmemmap</title>

<id>98f3cfc1dc7a53b629d43b7844a9b3f786213048</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch is to avoid panic when memory hot-add is executed with
sparsemem-vmemmap.  Current vmemmap-sparsemem code doesn't support memory
hot-add.  Vmemmap must be populated when hot-add.  This is for
2.6.23-rc2-mm2.

Todo: # Even if this patch is applied, the message "[xxxx-xxxx] potential
        offnode page_structs" is displayed. To allocate memmap on its node,
        memmap (and pgdat) must be initialized itself like chicken and
        egg relationship.

      # vmemmap_unpopulate will be necessary for followings.
         - For cancel hot-add due to error.
         - For unplug.
