Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

[PATCH] mm: compound release fix Compound pages on SMP systems can now often be freed from pagetables via the release_pages path. This uses put_page_testzero which does not handle compound pages at all. Releasing constituent pages from process mappings decrements their count to a large negative number and leaks the reference at the head page - net result is a memory leak. The problem was hidden because the debug check in put_page_testzero itself actually did take compound pages into consideration. Fix the bug and the debug check.

[PATCH] mm: make compound page destructor handling explicit Currently we we use the lru head link of the second page of a compound page to hold its destructor. This was ok when it was purely an internal implmentation detail. However, hugetlbfs overrides this destructor violating the layering. Abstract this out as explicit calls, also introduce a type for the callback function allowing them to be type checked. For each callback we pre-declare the function, causing a type error on definition rather than on use elsewhere.

[PATCH] Light weight event counters The remaining counters in page_state after the zoned VM counter patches have been applied are all just for show in /proc/vmstat. They have no essential function for the VM. We use a simple increment of per cpu variables. In order to avoid the most severe races we disable preempt. Preempt does not prevent the race between an increment and an interrupt handler incrementing the same statistics counter. However, that race is exceedingly rare, we may only loose one increment or so and there is no requirement (at least not in kernel) that the vm event counters have to be accurate. In the non preempt case this results in a simple increment for each counter. For many architectures this will be reduced by the compiler to a single instruction. This single instruction is atomic for i386 and x86_64. And therefore even the rare race condition in an interrupt is avoided for both architectures in most cases. The patchset also adds an off switch for embedded systems that allows a building of linux kernels without these counters. The implementation of these counters is through inline code that hopefully results in only a single instruction increment instruction being emitted (i386, x86_64) or in the increment being hidden though instruction concurrency (EPIC architectures such as ia64 can get that done). Benefits: - VM event counter operations usually reduce to a single inline instruction on i386 and x86_64. - No interrupt disable, only preempt disable for the preempt case. Preempt disable can also be avoided by moving the counter into a spinlock. - Handling is similar to zoned VM counters. - Simple and easily extendable. - Can be omitted to reduce memory use for embedded use.

[PATCH] core remove PageReserved Remove PageReserved() calls from core code by tightening VM_RESERVED handling in mm/ to cover PageReserved functionality. PageReserved special casing is removed from get_page and put_page. All setting and clearing of PageReserved is retained, and it is now flagged in the page_alloc checks to help ensure we don't introduce any refcount based freeing of Reserved pages. MAP_PRIVATE, PROT_WRITE of VM_RESERVED regions is tentatively being deprecated. We never completely handled it correctly anyway, and is be reintroduced in future if required (Hugh has a proof of concept). Once PageReserved() calls are removed from kernel/power/swsusp.c, and all arch/ and driver code, the Set and Clear calls, and the PG_reserved bit can be trivially removed. Last real user of PageReserved is swsusp, which uses PageReserved to determine whether a struct page points to valid memory or not. This still needs to be addressed (a generic page_is_ram() should work). A last caveat: the ZERO_PAGE is now refcounted and managed with rmap (and thus mapcounted and count towards shared rss). These writes to the struct page could cause excessive cacheline bouncing on big systems. There are a number of ways this could be addressed if it is an issue.

This means the release code need not hold ->lru_lock to stabilise PageLRU, so that lock may be skipped entirely when releasing !PageLRU pages (because we know PageLRU won't have been temporarily cleared by vmscan, which was previously guaranteed by holding the lock to synchronise against vmscan).

Use this in the lightweight, inline refcounting functions; PageLRU and PageActive checks in vmscan, because they're pretty well confined to vmscan. And in page allocate/free fastpaths which can be the hottest parts of the kernel for kbuilds. Unlike BUG_ON, VM_BUG_ON must not be used to execute statements with side-effects, and should not be used outside core mm code.

[PATCH] mm: never ClearPageLRU released pages If vmscan finds a zero refcount page on the lru list, never ClearPageLRU it. This means the release code need not hold ->lru_lock to stabilise PageLRU, so that lock may be skipped entirely when releasing !PageLRU pages (because we know PageLRU won't have been temporarily cleared by vmscan, which was previously guaranteed by holding the lock to synchronise against vmscan).

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

[PATCH] mm: VM_BUG_ON Introduce a VM_BUG_ON, which is turned on with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM. Use this in the lightweight, inline refcounting functions; PageLRU and PageActive checks in vmscan, because they're pretty well confined to vmscan. And in page allocate/free fastpaths which can be the hottest parts of the kernel for kbuilds. Unlike BUG_ON, VM_BUG_ON must not be used to execute statements with side-effects, and should not be used outside core mm code.
