fb5ffb0e16 quota: Change quota error message to print out disk and function name
The current quota error message doesn't always print the disk name, so
it is hard to identify the "bad" disk when quota error happens.

This patch changes the standardized quota error message to print out disk name
and function name. It also uses a combination of cpp macro and inline function
to provide better type checking and to lower the text size of the message.

bc289ae98b tracing: Reduce latency and remove percpu trace_seq
__print_flags() and __print_symbolic() use percpu trace_seq:

1) Its memory is allocated at compile time, it wastes memory if we don't use tracing.
2) It is percpu data and it wastes more memory for multi-cpus system.
3) It disables preemption when it executes its core routine
   "trace_seq_printf(s, "%s: ", #call);" and introduces latency.

So we move this trace_seq to struct trace_iterator.

e870e9a124 tracing: Allow to disable cmdline recording
We found that even enabling a single trace event that will rarely be
triggered can add big overhead to context switch.

(lmbench context switch test)
 -------------------------------------------------
 2p/0K 2p/16K 2p/64K 8p/16K 8p/64K 16p/16K 16p/64K

  2.39   2.51  2.35   2.75   2.27     2.81    2.24

The overhead is 6% ~ 11%.

It's because when a trace event is enabled 3 tracepoints (sched_switch,
sched_wakeup, sched_wakeup_new) will be activated to map pid to cmdname.

We'd like to avoid this overhead, so add a trace option '(no)record-cmd'
to allow to disable cmdline recording.

844b9a8707 vfs: fix RCU-lockdep false positive due to /proc
If a single-threaded process does a file-descriptor operation, and some
other process accesses that same file descriptor via /proc, the current
rcu_dereference_check_fdtable() can give a false-positive RCU-lockdep
splat due to the reference count being increased by the /proc access after
the reference-count check in fget_light() but before the check in
rcu_dereference_check_fdtable().

This commit prevents this false positive by checking for a single-threaded
process.  To avoid #include hell, this commit uses the wrapper for
thread_group_empty(current) defined by rcu_my_thread_group_empty()
provided in a separate commit.

Even with jumbograms I cannot see any way in which we would need
to records a larger than 65535 valued next-header offset.

The maximum extension header length is (256 << 3) == 2048.
There are only a handful of extension headers specified which
we'd even accept (say 5 or 6), therefore the largest next-header
offset we'd ever have to contend with is something less than
say 16k.

Therefore make it a u16 instead of a u32.

It allows user to make more thin and sophisticated configurations

CPU groups to gain better performance. Also each padata instance has notifiers chain for its
cpumasks now. If either parallel or serial or both masks were changed all

if padata user uses algorithm for callback CPU selection according to serial cpumask.

This patch adds a new networking option to allow hardware time stamps
from PHY devices. When enabled, likely candidates among incoming and
outgoing network packets are offered to the PHY driver for possible
time stamping. When accepted by the PHY driver, incoming packets are
deferred for later delivery by the driver.

and callbacks for transmit and receive time stamping. Drivers may

8d4b9d1bfe PM / Runtime: Add runtime PM statistics (v3)
In order for PowerTOP to be able to report how well the new runtime PM is
working for the various drivers, the kernel needs to export some basic
statistics in sysfs.

This patch adds two sysfs files in the runtime PM domain that expose the
total time a device has been active, and the time a device has been
suspended.

With this PowerTOP can compute the activity percentage

Active %age = 100 * (delta active) / (delta active + delta suspended)

and present the information to the user.

I've written the PowerTOP code (slated for version 1.12) already, and the
output looks like this:

Runtime Device Power Management statistics
Active  Device name
 10.0%	06:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller

c125e96f04 PM: Make it possible to avoid races between wakeup and system sleep
One of the arguments during the suspend blockers discussion was that
the mainline kernel didn't contain any mechanisms making it possible
to avoid races between wakeup and system suspend.

Generally, there are two problems in that area.  First, if a wakeup
event occurs exactly when /sys/power/state is being written to, it
may be delivered to user space right before the freezer kicks in, so
the user space consumer of the event may not be able to process it
before the system is suspended.  Second, if a wakeup event occurs
after user space has been frozen, it is not generally guaranteed that
the ongoing transition of the system into a sleep state will be
aborted.

To address these issues introduce a new global sysfs attribute,
/sys/power/wakeup_count, associated with a running counter of wakeup
events and three helper functions, pm_stay_awake(), pm_relax(), and
pm_wakeup_event(), that may be used by kernel subsystems to control
the behavior of this attribute and to request the PM core to abort
system transitions into a sleep state already in progress.

The /sys/power/wakeup_count file may be read from or written to by
user space.  Reads will always succeed (unless interrupted by a
signal) and return the current value of the wakeup events counter.
Writes, however, will only succeed if the written number is equal to
the current value of the wakeup events counter.  If a write is
successful, it will cause the kernel to save the current value of the
wakeup events counter and to abort the subsequent system transition
into a sleep state if any wakeup events are reported after the write
has returned.

[The assumption is that before writing to /sys/power/state user space
will first read from /sys/power/wakeup_count.  Next, user space
consumers of wakeup events will have a chance to acknowledge or
veto the upcoming system transition to a sleep state.  Finally, if
the transition is allowed to proceed, /sys/power/wakeup_count will
be written to and if that succeeds, /sys/power/state will be written
to as well.  Still, if any wakeup events are reported to the PM core
by kernel subsystems after that point, the transition will be
aborted.]

Additionally, put a wakeup events counter into struct dev_pm_info and
make these per-device wakeup event counters available via sysfs,
so that it's possible to check the activity of various wakeup event
sources within the kernel.

To illustrate how subsystems can use pm_wakeup_event(), make the
low-level PCI runtime PM wakeup-handling code use it.

It also makes device_set_wakeup_capable() actually do something when

it isn't then device_init_wakeup() and device_can_wakeup() should also

58c84eda07 PCI: fall back to original BIOS BAR addresses
If we fail to assign resources to a PCI BAR, this patch makes us try the
original address from BIOS rather than leaving it disabled.

Linux tries to make sure all PCI device BARs are inside the upstream
PCI host bridge or P2P bridge apertures, reassigning BARs if necessary.
Windows does similar reassignment.

Before this patch, if we could not move a BAR into an aperture, we left
the resource unassigned, i.e., at address zero.  Windows leaves such BARs
at the original BIOS addresses, and this patch makes Linux do the same.

This is a bit ugly because we disable the resource long before we try to
reassign it, so we have to keep track of the BIOS BAR address somewhere.
For lack of a better place, I put it in the struct pci_dev.

I think it would be cleaner to attempt the assignment immediately when the
claim fails, so we could easily remember the original address.  But we
currently claim motherboard resources in the middle, after attempting to
claim PCI resources and before assigning new PCI resources, and changing
that is a fairly big job.

af537b0a6c slub: Use kmem_cache flags to detect if slab is in debugging mode.
The cacheline with the flags is reachable from the hot paths after the
percpu allocator changes went in. So there is no need anymore to put a
flag into each slab page. Get rid of the SlubDebug flag and use
the flags in kmem_cache instead.

c022a0acad rlimits: implement prlimit64 syscall
This patch adds the code to support the sys_prlimit64 syscall which
modifies-and-returns the rlim values of a selected process atomically.
The first parameter, pid, being 0 means current process.

Unlike the current implementation, it is a generic interface,
architecture indepentent so that we needn't handle compat stuff
anymore. In the future, after glibc start to use this we can deprecate
sys_setrlimit and sys_getrlimit in favor to clean up the code finally.

It also adds a possibility of changing limits of other processes. We
check the user's permissions to do that and if it succeeds, the new
limits are propagated online. This is good for large scale
applications such as SAP or databases where administrators need to
change limits time by time (e.g. on crashes increase core size). And
it is unacceptable to restart the service.

For safety, all rlim users now either use accessors or doesn't need
them due to
- locking
- the fact a process was just forked and nobody else knows about it
  yet (and nobody can't thus read/write limits)
hence it is safe to modify limits now.

The limitation is that we currently stay at ulong internal
representation. So the rlim64_is_infinity check is used where value is
compared against ULONG_MAX on 32-bit which is the maximum value there.

And since internally the limits are held in struct rlimit, converters
which are used before and after do_prlimit call in sys_prlimit64 are
introduced.

5b41535aac rlimits: redo do_setrlimit to more generic do_prlimit
It now allows also reading of limits. I.e. all read and writes will
later use this function.

It takes two parameters, new and old limits which can be both NULL.
If new is non-NULL, the value in it is set to rlimits.
If old is non-NULL, current rlimits are stored there.
If both are non-NULL, old are stored prior to setting the new ones,
atomically.
(Similar to sigaction.)

6a1d5e2c85 rlimits: add rlimit64 structure
Add a platform independent structure for resource limits to use with
a new prlimit64 syscall. This structure is the same which uses glibc
for 64-bit limits.

Also add corresponding infinity which is a 64-bit full of bit-ones.

7855c35da7 rlimits: split sys_setrlimit
Create do_setrlimit from sys_setrlimit and declare do_setrlimit
in the resource header. This is the first phase to have generic
do_prlimit which allows to be called from read, write and compat
rlimits code.

The new do_setrlimit also accepts a task pointer to change the limits
of. Currently, it cannot be other than current, but this will change
with locking later.

Also pass tsk->group_leader to security_task_setrlimit to check
whether current is allowed to change rlimits of the process and not
its arbitrary thread because it makes more sense given that rlimit are
per process and not per-thread.

40d007e7df Input: introduce MT event slots
With the rapidly increasing number of intelligent multi-contact and
multi-user devices, the need to send digested, filtered information
from a set of different sources within the same device is imminent.
This patch adds the concept of slots to the MT protocol. The slots
enumerate a set of identified sources, such that all MT events
can be passed independently and selectively per identified source.

The protocol works like this: Instead of sending a SYN_MT_REPORT
event immediately after the contact data, one sends an ABS_MT_SLOT
event immediately before the contact data. The input core will only
emit events for slots with modified MT events. It is assumed that
the same slot is used for the duration of an initiated contact.
