2010-03-06lkdtm: add debugfs access and loosen KPROBE tiesSimon Kagstrom1-0/+38
Add adds a debugfs interface and additional failure modes to LKDTM to provide similar functionality to the provoke-crash driver submitted here: http://lwn.net/Articles/371208/ Crashes can now be induced either through module parameters (as before) or through the debugfs interface as in provoke-crash. The patch also provides a new "direct" interface, where KPROBES are not used, i.e., the crash is invoked directly upon write to the debugfs file. When built without KPROBES configured, only this mode is available. Signed-off-by: Simon Kagstrom <simon.kagstrom@netinsight.net> Cc: M.

2010-03-06mm: count swap usageKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki1-0/+2
A frequent questions from users about memory management is what numbers of swap ents are user for processes. And this information will give some hints to oom-killer. Besides we can count the number of swapents per a process by scanning /proc/<pid>/smaps, this is very slow and not good for usual process information handler which works like 'ps' or 'top'. (ps or top is now enough slow..) This patch adds a counter of swapents to mm_counter and update is at each swap events. Information is exported via /proc/<pid>/status file as [kamezawa@bluextal memory]$ cat /proc/self/status Name: cat State: R (running) Tgid: 2910 Pid: 2910 PPid: 2823 TracerPid: 0 Uid: 500 500 500 500 Gid: 500 500 500 500 FDSize: 256 Groups: 500 VmPeak: 82696 kB VmSize: 82696 kB VmLck: 0 kB VmHWM: 432 kB VmRSS: 432 kB VmData: 172 kB VmStk: 84 kB VmExe: 48 kB VmLib: 1568 kB VmPTE: 40 kB VmSwap: 0 kB <=============== this.

2010-03-06mm: avoid false sharing of mm_counterKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki1-0/+6
Considering the nature of per mm stats, it's the shared object among threads and can be a cache-miss point in the page fault path. This patch adds per-thread cache for mm_counter. RSS value will be counted into a struct in task_struct and synchronized with mm's one at events. Now, in this patch, the event is the number of calls to handle_mm_fault. Per-thread value is added to mm at each 64 calls. rough estimation with small benchmark on parallel thread (2threads) shows [before] 4.5 cache-miss/faults [after] 4.0 cache-miss/faults Anyway, the most contended object is mmap_sem if the number of threads grows.

2010-03-06hwmon: (it87) Add support for old automatic fan speed controlJean Delvare1-2/+25
Add support for the automatic fan speed control interface as implemented by IT8705F chips up to revision F and IT8712F chips up to revision G. This implementation fits very well in our standard sysfs interface. I implemented the old and not the new interface because the only chip I have at hand is an old one, and the new interface is more difficult to map to the standard sysfs interface. Adding support later should be possible though, if someone with a supported chip is interested. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

2010-03-06hwmon: (lm90) Add SMBus alert supportJean Delvare1-0/+12
Tested successfully with an ADM1032 chip on its evaluation board. It should work fine with all other chips as well.

But this could later evolve into libsensors signaling so that user-space applications can take an appropriate action.

2010-03-03pcmcia: disable pcmcia ioctl for !ARM, prepare for removalDominik Brodowski1-3/+9
The PCMCIA ioctl -- deprecated for years -- suffers from insufficient locking. As it already has been deprecated for years, with its removal long overdue, limit it to !SMP and !PREEMPT. Furthermore, the last legitimate use of the ioctl to be reported relates to the ARM architecture in 2008.[1] Attempts to resolve this issue turned out unsuccessful so far.[2] Other usages have only been reported as hear-say. If there are any legitiate and necessary use-cases remaining, please speak out before the end of the grace period until 2.6.3{5,6}(-rc1).

devices and spectrometers This patch removes the vstusb driver and support from the Linux tree. This driver provided support for Vernier Software & Technology devices and spectrometers (Ocean Optics). This driver is being replaced by a user space - libusb - implementation.

2010-03-03USB: convert to the runtime PM frameworkAlan Stern1-140/+77
This patch (as1329) converts the USB stack over to the PM core's runtime PM framework. This involves numerous changes throughout usbcore, especially to hub.c and driver.c. Perhaps the most notable change is that CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND now depends on CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME instead of CONFIG_PM. Several fields in the usb_device and usb_interface structures are no longer needed. Some code which used to depend on CONFIG_USB_PM now depends on CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND (requiring some rearrangement of header files). The only visible change in behavior should be that following a system sleep (resume from RAM or resume from hibernation), autosuspended USB devices will be resumed just like everything else. They won't remain suspended. But if they aren't in use then they will naturally autosuspend again in a few seconds.

2010-03-03USB: implement usb_enable_autosuspendAlan Stern1-0/+18
This patch (as1326) adds usb_enable_autosuspend() and usb_disable_autosuspend() routines for use by drivers. If a driver knows that its device can handle suspends and resumes correctly, it can enable autosuspend all by itself. This is equivalent to the user writing "auto" to the device's power/level attribute. The implementation differs slightly from what it used to be. Now autosuspend is disabled simply by doing usb_autoresume_device() (to increment the usage counter) and enabled by doing usb_autosuspend_device() (to decrement the usage counter). The set_level() attribute method is updated to use the new routines, and the USB Power-Management documentation is updated. The patch adds a usb_enable_autosuspend() call to the hub driver's probe routine, allowing the special-case code for hubs in quirks.c to be removed.
