It makes sense to do IOWAIT when someone is blocked
due to IO throttle, as suggested by Kame and Peter.
There is an old comment for not doing IOWAIT on throttle,
however it has been mismatching the code for a long time.
If we stop accounting IOWAIT for 2.6.32, it could be an
undesirable behavior change. So restore the io_schedule.

When a vmalloc'd area is mmap'd into userspace, some kind of
co-ordination is necessary for this to work on platforms with cpu
D-caches which can have aliases.
Otherwise kernel side writes won't be seen properly in userspace
and vice versa.
If the kernel side mapping and the user side one have the same
alignment, modulo SHMLBA, this can work as long as VM_SHARED is
shared of VMA and for all current users this is true. VM_SHARED
will force SHMLBA alignment of the user side mmap on platforms with
D-cache aliasing matters.
The bulk of this patch is just making it so that a specific
alignment can be passed down into __get_vm_area_node(). All
existing callers pass in '1' which preserves existing behavior.
vmalloc_user() gives SHMLBA for the alignment.
As a side effect this should get the video media drivers and other
vmalloc_user() users into more working shape on such systems.

Adjust the max_kernel_pages default to a quarter of totalram_pages,
instead of nr_free_buffer_pages() / 4: the KSM pages themselves come from
highmem, and even on a 16GB PAE machine, 4GB of KSM pages would only be
pinning 32MB of lowmem with their rmap_items, so no need for the more
obscure calculation (nor for its own special init function).
There is no way for the user to switch KSM on if CONFIG_SYSFS is not
enabled, so in that case default run to KSM_RUN_MERGE.
Update KSM Documentation and Kconfig to reflect the new defaults.

This patch clean up/fixes for memcg's uncharge soft limit path.
Problems:
Now, res_counter_charge()/uncharge() handles softlimit information at
charge/uncharge and softlimit-check is done when event counter per memcg
goes over limit. Now, event counter per memcg is updated only when
memory usage is over soft limit. Here, considering hierarchical memcg
management, ancesotors should be taken care of.
Now, ancerstors(hierarchy) are handled in charge() but not in uncharge().
This is not good.
Prolems:
1. memcg's event counter incremented only when softlimit hits. That's bad.
It makes event counter hard to be reused for other purpose.
2. At uncharge, only the lowest level rescounter is handled. This is bug.
Because ancesotor's event counter is not incremented, children should
take care of them.
3. res_counter_uncharge()'s 3rd argument is NULL in most case.
ops under res_counter->lock should be small. No "if" sentense is better.
Fixes:
* Removed soft_limit_xx poitner and checks in charge and uncharge.
Do-check-only-when-necessary scheme works enough well without them.
* make event-counter of memcg incremented at every charge/uncharge.
(per-cpu area will be accessed soon anyway)
* All ancestors are checked at soft-limit-check. This is necessary because
ancesotor's event counter may never be modified. Then, they should be
checked at the same time.

While testing Swap over NFS patchset, I noticed an oops that was triggered
during swapon. Investigating further, the NULL pointer deference is due to the
SSD device check/optimization in the swapon code that assumes s_bdev could never
be NULL.
inode->i_sb->s_bdev could be NULL in a few cases. For e.g. one such case is
loopback NFS mount, there could be others as well. Fix this by ensuring s_bdev
is not NULL before we try to deference s_bdev.

The parameters to pcpu_setup_first_chunk() come from different sources
depending on architecture and can be quite complex. The function runs
various sanity checks on the parameters and triggers BUG() if
something isn't right. However, this is very early during the boot
and not reporting exactly what the problem is makes debugging even
harder.
Add PCPU_SETUP_BUG() macro which prints out enough information about
the parameters. As the macro still puts separate BUG() for each
check, it won't lose any information even on the situations where only
the program counter can be retrieved.
While at it, also bump pcpu_dump_alloc_info() message to KERN_INFO so
that it's visible on the console if boot fails to complete.

Embedding first chunk allocator maintains the distances between units
in the vmalloc area and thus needs vmalloc space to be larger than the
maximum distances between units; otherwise, it wouldn't be able to
create any dynamic chunks. This patch makes the embedding first chunk
allocator check vmalloc space size and if the maximum distance between
units is larger than 75% of it, print warning and, if page mapping
allocator is available, fail initialization so that the system falls
back onto it.
This should work around percpu allocation failure problems on certain
sparc64 configurations where distances between NUMA nodes are larger
than the vmalloc area and makes percpu allocator more robust for
future configurations.

Some filesystem may choose to write much more than ratelimit_pages
before calling balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited_nr(). So it is safer to
determine number to write based on real number of dirtied pages.
Otherwise it is possible that
loop {
btrfs_file_write(): dirty 1024 pages
balance_dirty_pages(): write up to 48 pages (= ratelimit_pages * 1.5)
}
in which the writeback rate cannot keep up with dirty rate, and the
dirty pages go all the way beyond dirty_thresh.
The increased write_chunk may make the dirtier more bumpy.
So filesystems shall be take care not to dirty too much at

Fix MAP_PRIVATE mmap() of files and devices where the data in the backing store

f_op->get_unmapped_area() fails.

Reduce the resource counter overhead (mostly spinlock) associated with the
root cgroup. This is a part of the several patches to reduce mem cgroup
overhead. I had posted other approaches earlier (including using percpu
counters). Those patches will be a natural addition and will be added
iteratively on top of these.
The patch stops resource counter accounting for the root cgroup. The data
for display is derived from the statisitcs we maintain via
mem_cgroup_charge_statistics (which is more scalable). What happens today
is that, we do double accounting, once using res_counter_charge() and once
using memory_cgroup_charge_statistics(). For the root, since we don't
implement limits any more, we don't need to track every charge via
res_counter_charge() and check for limit being exceeded and reclaim.
The main mem->res usage_in_bytes can be derived by summing the cache and
rss usage data from memory statistics (MEM_CGROUP_STAT_RSS and
MEM_CGROUP_STAT_CACHE). However, for memsw->res usage_in_bytes, we need
additional data about swapped out memory. This patch adds a
MEM_CGROUP_STAT_SWAPOUT and uses that along with MEM_CGROUP_STAT_RSS and
MEM_CGROUP_STAT_CACHE to derive the memsw data. This data is computed
recursively when hierarchy is enabled.
The tests results I see on a 24 way show that
1. The lock contention disappears from /proc/lock_stats
2. The results of the test are comparable to running with
cgroup_disable=memory.

Implement reclaim from groups over their soft limit
Permit reclaim from memory cgroups on contention (via the direct reclaim
path).
memory cgroup soft limit reclaim finds the group that exceeds its soft
limit by the largest number of pages and reclaims pages from it and then
reinserts the cgroup into its correct place in the rbtree.
Add additional checks to mem_cgroup_hierarchical_reclaim() to detect long
loops in case all swap is turned off. The code has been refactored and
the loop check (loop < 2) has been enhanced for soft limits. For soft
limits, we try to do more targetted reclaim. Instead of bailing out after
two loops, the routine now reclaims memory proportional to the size by
which the soft limit is exceeded. The proportion has been empirically
determined.

Organize cgroups over soft limit in a RB-Tree
Introduce an RB-Tree for storing memory cgroups that are over their soft
limit. The overall goal is to
1. Add a memory cgroup to the RB-Tree when the soft limit is exceeded.
We are careful about updates, updates take place only after a particular
time interval has passed
2. We remove the node from the RB-Tree when the usage goes below the soft
limit
The next set of patches will exploit the RB-Tree to get the group that is
over its soft limit by the largest amount and reclaim from it, when we
face memory contention.

Add an interface to allow get/set of soft limits. Soft limits for memory
plus swap controller (memsw) is currently not supported. Resource
counters have been enhanced to support soft limits and new type
RES_SOFT_LIMIT has been added. Unlike hard limits, soft limits can be
directly set and do not need any reclaim or checks before setting them to
a newer value.
Kamezawa-San raised a question as to whether soft limit should belong to
res_counter. Since all resources understand the basic concepts of hard
and soft limits, it is justified to add soft limits here. Soft limits are
a generic resource usage feature, even file system quotas support soft
limits.

Change the memory cgroup to remove the overhead associated with accounting
all pages in the root cgroup. As a side-effect, we can no longer set a
memory hard limit in the root cgroup.
A new flag to track whether the page has been accounted or not has been
added as well. Flags are now set atomically for page_cgroup,
pcg_default_flags is now obsolete and removed.

Alter the ss->can_attach and ss->attach functions to be able to deal with
a whole threadgroup at a time, for use in cgroup_attach_proc. (This is a
pre-patch to cgroup-procs-writable.patch.)
Currently, new mode of the attach function can only tell the subsystem
about the old cgroup of the threadgroup leader. No subsystem currently
needs that information for each thread that's being moved, but if one were
to be added (for example, one that counts tasks within a group) this bit
would need to be reworked a bit to tell the subsystem the right
information.

Now that ksm is in mainline it is better to change the default values to
better fit to most of the users.
This patch change the ksm default values to be:
ksm_thread_pages_to_scan = 100 (instead of 200)
ksm_thread_sleep_millisecs = 20 (like before)
ksm_run = KSM_RUN_STOP (instead of KSM_RUN_MERGE - meaning ksm is
disabled by default)
ksm_max_kernel_pages = nr_free_buffer_pages / 4 (instead of 2046)
The important aspect of this patch is: it disables ksm by default, and sets
the number of the kernel_pages that can be allocated to be a reasonable
number.

Originally, walk_memory_resource() was introduced to traverse all memory
of "System RAM" for detecting memory hotplug/unplug range. For doing so,
flags of IORESOUCE_MEM|IORESOURCE_BUSY was used and this was enough for
memory hotplug.
But for using other purpose, /proc/kcore, this may includes some firmware
area marked as IORESOURCE_BUSY | IORESOUCE_MEM. This patch makes the
check strict to find out busy "System RAM".
Note: PPC64 keeps their own walk_memory_resouce(), which walk through
ppc64's lmb informaton. Because old kclist_add() is called per lmb, this
patch makes no difference in behavior, finally.
And this patch removes CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG check from this function.
Because pfn_valid() just show "there is memmap or not* and cannot be used
for "there is physical memory or not", this function is useful in generic
to scan physical memory range.

A patch to give a better overview of the userland application stack usage,
especially for embedded linux.
Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage
which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value. But you get no
information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads.
There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which marks
the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread stack
xxxxxxxx]". xxxxxxxx is the maximum size of stack. This is a value
information, because libpthread doesn't set the start of the stack to the
top of the mapped area, depending of the pthread usage.
A sample output of /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps looks like:
08048000-08049000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 8312 /opt/z

Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status
which will you give the current stack usage in kb.
A sample output of /proc/self/status looks like:
Name: cat
State: R (running)
Tgid: 507
Pid: 507
.
.
.
CapBnd: fffffffffffffeff
voluntary_ctxt_switches: 0
nonvoluntary_ctxt_switches: 0
Stack usage: 12 kB
I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/stat to the base
address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main
process. This makes more sense.

Some architectures (like the Blackfin arch) implement some of the
"simpler" features that one would expect out of a MMU such as memory
protection.
In our case, we actually get read/write/exec protection down to the page
boundary so processes can't stomp on each other let alone the kernel.
There is a performance decrease (which depends greatly on the workload)
however as the hardware/software interaction was not optimized at design
time.
