2012-12-18res_counter: return amount of charges after res_counter_uncharge()Glauber Costa
It is useful to know how many charges are still left after a call to res_counter_uncharge. While it is possible to issue a res_counter_read after uncharge, this can be racy. If we need, for instance, to take some action when the counters drop down to 0, only one of the callers should see it. This is the same semantics as the atomic variables in the kernel. Since the current return value is void, we don't need to worry about anything breaking due to this change: nobody relied on that, and only users appearing from now on will be checking this value.

2012-12-17aoe: allow user to disable target failure timeoutEd Cashin
With this change, the aoe driver treats the value zero as special for the aoe_deadsecs module parameter. Normally, this value specifies the number of seconds during which the driver will continue to attempt retransmits to an unresponsive AoE target. After aoe_deadsecs has elapsed, the aoe driver marks the aoe device as "down" and fails all I/O. The new meaning of an aoe_deadsecs of zero is for the driver to retransmit commands indefinitely.

2012-12-17/proc/pid/status: add "Seccomp" fieldKees Cook
It is currently impossible to examine the state of seccomp for a given process. While attaching with gdb and attempting "call prctl(PR_GET_SECCOMP,...)" will work with some situations, it is not reliable. If the process is in seccomp mode 1, this query will kill the process (prctl not allowed), if the process is in mode 2 with prctl not allowed, it will similarly be killed, and in weird cases, if prctl is filtered to return errno 0, it can look like seccomp is disabled. When reviewing the state of running processes, there should be a way to externally examine the seccomp mode. ("Did this build of Chrome end up using seccomp?" "Did my distro ship ssh with seccomp enabled?") This adds the "Seccomp" line to /proc/$pid/status.

2012-12-17procfs: add VmFlags field in smaps outputCyrill Gorcunov
During c/r sessions we've found that there is no way at the moment to fetch some VMA associated flags, such as mlock() and madvise(). This leads us to a problem -- we don't know if we should call for mlock() and/or madvise() after restore on the vma area we're bringing back to life. This patch intorduces a new field into "smaps" output called VmFlags, where all set flags associated with the particular VMA is shown as two letter mnemonics. [ Strictly speaking for c/r we only need mlock/madvise bits but it has been said that providing just a few flags looks somehow inconsistent. So all flags are here now. ] This feature is made available on CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE=n kernels, as other applications may start to use these fields. The data is encoded in a somewhat awkward two letters mnemonic form, to encourage userspace to be prepared for fields being added or removed in the future.

2012-12-17fat: provide option for setting timezone offsetJan Kara
So far FAT either offsets time stamps by sys_tz.minuteswest or leaves them as they are (when tz=UTC mount option is used). However in some cases it is useful if one can specify time stamp offset on his own (e.g. when time zone of the camera connected is different from time zone of the computer, or when HW clock is in UTC and thus sys_tz.minuteswest == 0). So provide a mount option time_offset= which allows user to specify offset in minutes that should be applied to time stamps on the filesystem. akpm: this code would work incorrectly when used via `mount -o remount', because cached inodes would not be updated. But fatfs's fat_remount() is basically a no-op anyway.

2012-12-17drivers/video/backlight/lp855x_bl.c: use generic PWM functionsKim, Milo
The LP855x family devices support the PWM input for the backlight control. Period of the PWM is configurable in the platform side. Platform specific functions are unnecessary anymore because generic PWM functions are used inside the driver. (PWM input mode) To set the brightness, new lp855x_pwm_ctrl() is used. If a PWM device is not allocated, devm_pwm_get() is called. The PWM consumer name is from the chip name such as 'lp8550' and 'lp8556'. To get the brightness value, no additional handling is required. Just the value of 'props.brightness' is returned. If the PWM driver is not ready while initializing the LP855x driver, it's OK. The PWM device can be retrieved later, when the brightness value is changed. Documentation is updated with an example.

In almost all respects balancenuma is the dumbest of the three because its main impact is on the VM side with no attempt to be smart about scheduling. In the interest of getting the ball rolling, it would be desirable to see this much merged for 3.8 with the view to building scheduler smarts on top and adapting the VM where required for 3.9. The most recent set of comparisons available from different people are mel: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/9/108 mingo: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/7/331 tglx: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/10/437 srikar: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/10/397 The results are a mixed bag. In my own tests, balancenuma does reasonably well. It's dumb as rocks and does not regress against mainline. On the other hand, Ingo's tests shows that balancenuma is incapable of converging for this workloads driven by perf which is bad but is potentially explained by the lack of scheduler smarts. Thomas' results show balancenuma improves on mainline but falls far short of numacore or autonuma. Srikar's results indicate we all suffer on a large machine with imbalanced node sizes. My own testing showed that recent numacore results have improved dramatically, particularly in the last week but not universally. We've butted heads heavily on system CPU usage and high levels of migration even when it shows that overall performance is better. There are also cases where it regresses. Of interest is that for specjbb in some configurations it will regress for lower numbers of warehouses and show gains for higher numbers which is not reported by the tool by default and sometimes missed in treports. Recently I reported for numacore that the JVM was crashing with NullPointerExceptions but currently it's unclear what the source of this problem is. Initially I thought it was in how numacore batch handles PTEs but I'm no longer think this is the case. It's possible numacore is just able to trigger it due to higher rates of migration. These reports were quite late in the cycle so I/we would like to start with this tree as it contains much of the code we can agree on and has not changed significantly over the last 2-3 weeks." * tag 'balancenuma-v11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mel/linux-balancenuma: (50 commits) mm/rmap, migration: Make rmap_walk_anon() and try_to_unmap_anon() more scalable mm/rmap: Convert the struct anon_vma::mutex to an rwsem mm: migrate: Account a transhuge page properly when rate limiting mm: numa: Account for failed allocations and isolations as migration failures mm: numa: Add THP migration for the NUMA working set scanning fault case build fix mm: numa: Add THP migration for the NUMA working set scanning fault case. mm: sched: numa: Delay PTE scanning until a task is scheduled on a new node mm: sched: numa: Control enabling and disabling of NUMA balancing if !SCHED_DEBUG mm: sched: numa: Control enabling and disabling of NUMA balancing mm: sched: Adapt the scanning rate if a NUMA hinting fault does not migrate mm: numa: Use a two-stage filter to restrict pages being migrated for unlikely task<->node relationships mm: numa: migrate: Set last_nid on newly allocated page mm: numa: split_huge_page: Transfer last_nid on tail page mm: numa: Introduce last_nid to the page frame sched: numa: Slowly increase the scanning period as NUMA faults are handled mm: numa: Rate limit setting of pte_numa if node is saturated mm: numa: Rate limit the amount of memory that is migrated between nodes mm: numa: Structures for Migrate On Fault per NUMA migration rate limiting mm: numa: Migrate pages handled during a pmd_numa hinting fault mm: numa: Migrate on reference policy ...
