For this race to trigger the process that proc_pid_readdir stops at\nmust exit before readdir is called again.\n\nThis can cause ps to fail to report processes, and it is in violation of\nposix guarantees and normal application expectations with respect to\nreaddir.\n\nCurrently there is no way to work around this problem in user space short\nof providing a gargantuan buffer to user space so the directory read all\nhappens in on system call.\n\nThis patch implements the normal directory semantics for proc, that\nguarantee that a directory entry that is neither created nor destroyed\nwhile reading the directory entry will be returned. For directory that are\neither created or destroyed during the readdir you may or may not see them.\n Furthermore you may seek to a directory offset you have previously seen.\n\nThese are the guarantee that ext[23] provides and that posix requires, and\nmore importantly that user space expects. Plus it is a simple semantic to\nimplement reliable service. It is just a matter of calling readdir a\nsecond time if you are wondering if something new has show up.\n\nThese better semantics are implemented by scanning through the pids in\nnumerical order and by making the file offset a pid plus a fixed offset.\n\nThe pid scan happens on the pid bitmap, which when you look at it is\nremarkably efficient for a brute force algorithm. Given that a typical\ncache line is 64 bytes and thus covers space for 64*8 \u003d\u003d 200 pids. There\nare only 40 cache lines for the entire 32K pid space. A typical system\nwill have 100 pids or more so this is actually fewer cache lines we have to\nlook at to scan a linked list, and the worst case of having to scan the\nentire pid bitmap is pretty reasonable.\n\nIf we need something more efficient we can go to a more efficient data\nstructure for indexing the pids, but for now what we have should be\nsufficient.\n\nIn addition this takes no additional locks and is actually less code than\nwhat we are doing now.\n\nAlso another very subtle bug in this area has been fixed. It is possible\nto catch a task in the middle of de_thread where a thread is assuming the\nthread of it\u0027s thread group leader. This patch carefully handles that case\nso if we hit it we don\u0027t fail to return the pid, that is undergoing the\nde_thread dance.\n\nThanks to KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki \u003ckamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com\u003e for\nproviding the first fix, pointing this out and working on it.\n\n[oleg@tv-sign.ru: fix it]\nSigned-off-by: Eric W.

The\ncode that today makes this tradeoff just does a rather simple algorithm;\nhowever this is not good enough: There are devices and use cases where a\nlower latency is required than that the higher power saving states provide.\n An example would be audio playback, but another example is the ipw2100\nwireless driver that right now has a very direct and ugly acpi hook to\ndisable some higher power states randomly when it gets certain types of\nerror.\n\nThe proposed solution is to have an interface where drivers can\n\n* announce the maximum latency (in microseconds) that they can deal with\n* modify this latency\n* give up their constraint\n\nand a function where the code that decides on power saving strategy can\nquery the current global desired maximum.\n\nThis patch has a user of each side: on the consumer side, ACPI is patched\nto use this, on the producer side the ipw2100 driver is patched.\n\nA generic maximum latency is also registered of 2 timer ticks (more and you\nlose accurate time tracking after all).\n\nWhile the existing users of the patch are x86 specific, the infrastructure\nis not. I\u0027d like to ask the arch maintainers of other architectures if the\ninfrastructure is generic enough for their use (assuming the architecture\nhas such a tradeoff as concept at all), and the sound/multimedia driver\nowners to look at the driver facing API to see if this is something they\ncan use.\n\n[akpm@osdl.org: cleanups]\nSigned-off-by: Arjan van de Ven \u003carjan@linux.intel.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\nAcked-by: Jesse Barnes \u003cjesse.barnes@intel.com\u003e\nCc: \"Brown, Len\" \u003clen.brown@intel.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "6e21828743247270d09a86756a0c11702500dbfb", "tree": "e38e37a5040801787e8e942ba35c25903cea0d77", "parents": [ "be5b7a8987f23281b146f22b13e2079f448c69c7" ], "author": { "name": "Richard Knutsson", "email": "ricknu-0@student.ltu.se", "time": "Sat Sep 30 23:27:11 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Sun Oct 01 00:39:18 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] Generic boolean\n\nThis patch defines:\n* a generic boolean-type, named \u0027bool\u0027\n* aliases to 0 and 1, named \u0027false\u0027 and \u0027true\u0027\n\nRemoving colliding definitions of \u0027bool\u0027, \u0027false\u0027 and \u0027true\u0027.\n\nSigned-off-by: Richard Knutsson \u003cricknu-0@student.ltu.se\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "53947027ad90542ddb2bb746e3175827c270610a", "tree": "385add6ef71095c9dba4c23ef778d92502de1086", "parents": [ "8c2676a5870ab15cbeea9f826266bc946fe3cc26" ], "author": { "name": "Keith Mannthey", "email": "kmannth@us.ibm.com", "time": "Sat Sep 30 23:27:08 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Sun Oct 01 00:39:18 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] hot-add-mem x86_64: use CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_SPARSE\n\nMigate CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG to CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_SPARSE where needed.\n\nSigned-off-by: Keith Mannthey \u003ckmannth@us.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki \u003ckamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com\u003e\nCc: Andi Kleen \u003cak@muc.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "f28c5edc06ecd8068b38b7662ad19f4d20d741af", "tree": "4582acbf62b7a484b62b69e3f465cf4d069f7e2a", "parents": [ "236561e5df009f79f1939e3ca269b9b6f18092f5" ], "author": { "name": "Keith Mannthey", "email": "kmannth@us.ibm.com", "time": "Sat Sep 30 23:27:04 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Sun Oct 01 00:39:18 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] hot-add-mem x86_64: fixup externs\n\nFix up externs in memory_hotplug.c.

As far as I can tell, even SCSI chardevs use the\n \t block layer to do scheduling. Some drivers that use SCSI facilities -\n \t such as USB storage - end up disabled indirectly from this.\n\n (*) Various block-based device drivers, such as IDE and the old CDROM\n \t drivers.\n\n (*) MTD blockdev handling and FTL.\n\n (*) JFFS - which uses set_bdev_super(), something it could avoid doing by\n \t taking a leaf out of JFFS2\u0027s book.\n\n (*) Makes most of the contents of linux/blkdev.h, linux/buffer_head.h and\n linux/elevator.h contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK being set. sector_div() is,\n however, still used in places, and so is still available.\n\n (*) Also made contingent are the contents of linux/mpage.h, linux/genhd.h and\n parts of linux/fs.h.\n\n (*) Makes a number of files in fs/ contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.\n\n (*) Makes mm/bounce.c (bounce buffering) contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.\n\n (*) set_page_dirty() doesn\u0027t call __set_page_dirty_buffers() if CONFIG_BLOCK\n is not enabled.\n\n (*) fs/no-block.c is created to hold out-of-line stubs and things that are\n required when CONFIG_BLOCK is not set:\n\n (*) Default blockdev file operations (to give error ENODEV on opening).\n\n (*) Makes some /proc changes:\n\n (*) /proc/devices does not list any blockdevs.\n\n (*) /proc/diskstats and /proc/partitions are contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.\n\n (*) Makes some compat ioctl handling contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.\n\n (*) If CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined, makes sys_quotactl() return -ENODEV if\n given command other than Q_SYNC or if a special device is specified.\n\n (*) In init/do_mounts.c, no reference is made to the blockdev routines if\n CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined. This does not prohibit NFS roots or JFFS2.\n\n (*) The bdflush, ioprio_set and ioprio_get syscalls can now be absent (return\n error ENOSYS by way of cond_syscall if so).\n\n (*) The seclvl_bd_claim()
