      ipc: Fix building compat mode without sysvipc · 7e89a37c
      Arnd Bergmann authored
      
      As John Stultz noticed, my y2038 syscall series caused a link
      failure when CONFIG_SYSVIPC is disabled but CONFIG_COMPAT is
      enabled:

      kernel: cgroup: add poll file operation · dc50537b
      Johannes Weiner authored
      Cgroup has a standardized poll/notification mechanism for waking all
      pollers on all fds when a filesystem node changes.  To allow polling for
      custom events, add a .poll callback that can override the default.
      
      This is in preparation for pollable cgroup pressure files which have
      per-fd trigger configurations.

      mm, compaction: capture a page under direct compaction · 5e1f0f09
      Mel Gorman authored
      Compaction is inherently race-prone as a suitable page freed during
      compaction can be allocated by any parallel task.  This patch uses a
      capture_control structure to isolate a page immediately when it is freed
      by a direct compactor in the slow path of the page allocator.  The
      intent is to avoid redundant scanning.

      Latency is only moderately affected but the devil is in the details.  A
      closer examination indicates that base page fault latency is reduced but
      latency of huge pages is increased as it takes creater care to succeed.
      Part of the "problem" is that allocation success rates are close to 100%
      even when under pressure and compaction gets harder

      mm: remove sysctl_extfrag_handler() · 6b7e5cad
      Matthew Wilcox authored
      sysctl_extfrag_handler() neglects to propagate the return value from
      proc_dointvec_minmax() to its caller.  It's a wrapper that doesn't need
      to exist, so just use proc_dointvec_minmax() directly.

      mm: replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE · 98fa15f3
      Anshuman Khandual authored
      Patch series "Replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE", v3.
      
      All these places for replacement were found by running the following
      grep patterns on the entire kernel code.  Please let me know if this
      might have missed some instances.  This might also have replaced some
      false positives.  I will appreciate suggestions, inputs and review.
      
      1. git grep "nid == -1"
      2. git grep "node == -1"
      3. git grep "nid = -1"
      4. git grep "node = -1"
      
      This patch (of 2):
      
      At present there are multiple places where invalid node number is
      encoded as -1.  Even though implicitly understood it is always better to
      have macros in there.  Replace these open encodings for an invalid node
      number with the global macro NUMA_NO_NODE.  This helps remove NUMA
      related assumptions like 'invalid node' from various places redirecting
      them to a common definition.

      In saveable_highmem_page(), move the PageReserved() check to a new check
      along with the PageOffline() check to separate it from the swsusp

      kexec: export PG_offline to VMCOREINFO · e04b742f
      David Hildenbrand authored
      Right now, pages inflated as part of a balloon driver will be dumped by
      dump tools like makedumpfile.  While XEN is able to check in the crash
      kernel whether a certain pfn is actuall backed by memory in the
      hypervisor (see xen_oldmem_pfn_is_ram) and optimize this case, dumps of
      other balloon inflated memory will essentially result in zero pages
      getting allocated by the hypervisor and the dump getting filled with
      this data.
      
      The allocation and reading of zero pages can directly be avoided if a
      dumping tool could know which pages only contain stale information not
      to be dumped.
      
      We now have PG_offline which can be (and already is by virtio-balloon)
      used for marking pages as logically offline.  Follow up patches will
      make use of this flag also in other balloon implementations.
      
      Let's export PG_offline via PAGE_OFFLINE_MAPCOUNT_VALUE, so makedumpfile
      can directly skip pages that are logically offline and the content
      therefore stale.
      
      Please note that this is also helpful for a problem we were seeing under
      Hyper-V: Dumping logically offline memory (pages kept fake offline while
      onlining a section via online_page_callback) would under some condicions
      result in a kernel panic when dumping them.
