Don't do load-average calculations at even 5-second intervals

artificially inflated by events that just happen to coincide.

EINTR.

This can help with X startup issues:

17 years agoxen: disable split pte locks for now
Jeremy Fitzhardinge [Sat, 6 Oct 2007 00:19:35 +0000 (17:19 -0700)]
xen: disable split pte locks for now

When pinning and unpinning pagetables, we must protect them against
being used by other CPUs, lest they see the pagetable in an
intermediate read-only-but-not-pinned state.

When using split pte locks, doing this properly would require taking
all the pte locks for the pagetable while pinning, but this may overflow
the PREEMPT_BITS part of the preempt counter if the process has mapped
more than about 512M of memory.

However, failing to take the pte locks causes write-protect faults when
the pageout code is trying to clear the Access bit on a pte which is part
of a freshy created and still being pinned process after fork.

This is a short-term fix until the problem is solved properly.

Remove unnecessary cast in prefetch()

It is ok to call prefetch() function with NULL argument, as specifically
commented in include/linux/prefetch.h.  But in standard C, it is invalid
to dereference NULL pointer (see C99 standard 6.5.3.2 paragraph 4 and
note #84).

prefetch() has a memory reference for its argument.

Newer gcc versions (4.3 and above) will use that to conclude that "x"
argument is non-null and thus wreaking havok everywhere prefetch() was
inlined.

Fixed by removing cast and changing asm constraint.

[ It seems in theory gcc 4.2 could miscompile this too; although no
  cases known.  In 2.6.24 we should probably switch to
  __builtin_prefetch() instead, but this is a simpler fix for now.

RAM: kunmap thinks we're in_interrupt because the preempt count has

Why have we been so slow to notice this? Probably through forgetting

nowadays only goes the full nonlinear vma route on a few memory-backed

x86_64: increase VDSO_TEXT_OFFSET for ancient binutils

For some reason old binutils genertate larger headers so increase the text
offset of the vdso to avoid linker errors.

Roland McGrath explains:
  "There are extra symbols in the '.dynsym' section that are responsible
   for the size difference (They also cause corresponding inflation in
   '.gnu.version')

   Older ld's wrongly generated these unneeded symbols in .dynsym.  This
   was fixed not all that long ago (2006); binutils-2.17.50.0.6 might be
   the first fixed version, but I have not verified for sure where the
   cutoff was.

   The unneeded symbols et al from old ld add almost 700 bytes excess.
   This limits fairly tightly the amount by which the actual text and
   data in the vDSO can grow in the future without pushing the whole
   file over 4kb.  If it does grow later on, we should consider changing
   the layout with a config option or something to pack it better
   without that padding, when building the kernel with newer binutils."

    all the transations in the log and expect the inode to be completely

i386: remove bogus comment about memory barrier

The comment being removed by this patch is incorrect and misleading.

In the following situation:

1. load  ...
2. store 1 -> X
3. wmb
4. rmb
5. load  a <- Y
6. store ...

4 will only ensure ordering of 1 with 5.
3 will only ensure ordering of 2 with 6.

Further, a CPU with strictly in-order stores will still only provide that
2 and 6 are ordered (effectively, it is the same as a weakly ordered CPU
with wmb after every store).

In all cases, 5 may still be executed before 2 is visible to other CPUs!

The additional piece of the puzzle that mb() provides is the store/load
ordering, which fundamentally cannot be achieved with any combination of
rmb()s and wmb()s.

This can be an unexpected result if one expected any sort of global ordering
guarantee to barriers (eg. that the barriers themselves are sequentially
consistent with other types of barriers).  However sfence or lfence barriers
need only provide an ordering partial ordering of memory operations -- Consider
that wmb may be implemented as nothing more than inserting a special barrier
entry in the store queue, or, in the case of x86, it can be a noop as the store
queue is in order. And an rmb may be implemented as a directive to prevent
subsequent loads only so long as their are no previous outstanding loads (while
there could be stores still in store queues).

I can actually see the occasional load/store being reordered around lfence on
my core2. That doesn't prove my above assertions, but it does show the comment
is wrong (unless my program is -- can send it out by request).

So:
   mb() and smp_mb() always have and always will require a full mfence
   or lock prefixed instruction on x86.  And we should remove this comment.

are both cast to that type by tcp_v{4,6}_md5_do_lookup().

Unfortunately tcp{4,6}_md5sig_key use a u16 for the key
length instead of a u8, which is what tcp_md5sig_key
uses.  This just so happens to work by accident on
little-endian, but on big-endian it doesn't.

Instead of casting, just place tcp_md5sig_key as the first member of
the address-family specific structures, adjust the access sites, and
kill off the ugly casts.

MIPS was mistakenly forgetting to use the fallocate compat wrapper, which
I noticed while cleaning up all the duplicate fallocate wrappers.

signature on return.  This worked on *almost* all systems, since %edx
