shm: fix the filename of hugetlb sysv shared memory

2007-06-16T20:16:16Z

Some user space tools need to identify SYSV shared memory when examining /proc//maps. To do so they look for a block device with major zero, a dentry named SYSV, and having the minor of the internal sysv shared memory kernel mount. To help these tools and to make it easier for people just browsing /proc//maps this patch modifies hugetlb sysv shared memory to use the SYSV dentry naming convention. User space tools will still have to be aware that hugetlb sysv shared memory lives on a different internal kernel mount and so has a different block device minor number from the rest of sysv shared memory.

SLUB: minimum alignment fixes

2007-06-16T20:16:16Z

If ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is set to a value greater than 8 (SLUBs smallest kmalloc cache) then SLUB may generate duplicate slabs in sysfs (yes again) because the object size is padded to reach ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN. Thus the size of the small slabs is all the same. No arch sets ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN larger than 8 though except mips which for some reason wants a 128 byte alignment. This patch increases the size of the smallest cache if ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is greater than 8. In that case more and more of the smallest caches are disabled. If we do that then the count of the active general caches that is displayed on boot is not correct anymore since we may skip elements of the kmalloc array. So count them separately. This approach was tested by Havard yesterday. Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter Cc: Haavard Skinnemoen Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Rework ptep_set_access_flags and fix sun4c

2007-06-16T20:16:16Z

Some changes done a while ago to avoid pounding on ptep_set_access_flags and update_mmu_cache in some race situations break sun4c which requires update_mmu_cache() to always be called on minor faults. This patch reworks ptep_set_access_flags() semantics, implementations and callers so that it's now responsible for returning whether an update is necessary or not (basically whether the PTE actually changed). This allow fixing the sparc implementation to always return 1 on sun4c.

uml: kill x86_64 STACK_TOP_MAX

2007-06-16T20:16:16Z

The x86_64 a.out.h got a definition of STACK_TOP_MAX, which interferes with the UML version. So, just undef it like STACK_TOP. Signed-off-by: Jeff Dike Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

spi doc updates

2007-06-16T20:16:16Z

Update two points in the SPI interface documentation: - Update description of the "chip stays selected after message ends" mode. In some cases it's required for correctness; it isn't just a performance tweak. (Yes: to use this mode on mult-device busses, another programming interface will be needed. One draft has been circulated already.) - Clarify spi_setup(), highlighting that callers must ensure that no requests are queued (can't change configuration except between I/Os), and that the device must be deselected when this returns (which is a key part of why it's called during device init).

i386 mm: use pte_update() in ptep_test_and_clear_dirty()

2007-06-16T20:16:15Z

It is not safe to use pte_update_defer() in ptep_test_and_clear_young(): its only user, /proc//clear_refs, drops pte lock before flushing TLB. Use the safe though less efficient pte_update() paravirtop in its place. Likewise in ptep_test_and_clear_dirty(), though that has no current use. These are macros (header file dependency stops them from becoming inline functions), so be more liberal with the underscores and parentheses.
