One the first Watchdog timeout we get a critical exception. It is left to
board specific code to determine what should happen at this point. If
nothing is done and another timeout period expires the processor may
attempt to reset the machine.
Command line parameters:
wdt=0 : disable watchdog (default)
wdt=1 : enable watchdog

The Watchdog Timer Period meaning is implementation specific. Check

[PATCH] Generic VFS fallback for security xattrs
This patch modifies the VFS setxattr, getxattr, and listxattr code to fall
back to the security module for security xattrs if the filesystem does not
support xattrs natively. This allows security modules to export the incore
inode security label information to userspace even if the filesystem does
not provide xattr storage, and eliminates the need to individually patch
various pseudo filesystem types to provide such access. The patch removes
the existing xattr code from devpts and tmpfs as it is then no longer
needed.
The patch restructures the code flow slightly to reduce duplication between
the normal path and the fallback path, but this should only have one
user-visible side effect - a program may get -EACCES rather than
-EOPNOTSUPP if policy denied access but the filesystem didn't support the
operation anyway. Note that the post_setxattr hook call is not needed in
the fallback case, as the inode_setsecurity hook call handles the incore
inode security state update directly. In contrast, we do call fsnotify in
both cases.

[PATCH] selinux: Reduce memory use by avtab
This patch improves memory use by SELinux by both reducing the avtab node
size and reducing the number of avtab nodes. The memory savings are
substantial, e.g. on a 64-bit system after boot, James Morris reported the
following data for the targeted and strict policies:
#objs objsize kernmem
Targeted:
Before: 237888 40 9.1MB
After: 19968 24 468KB
Strict:
Before: 571680 40 21.81MB
After: 221052 24 5.06MB
The improvement in memory use comes at a cost in the speed of security
server computations of access vectors, but these computations are only
required on AVC cache misses, and performance measurements by James Morris
using a number of benchmarks have shown that the change does not cause any
significant degradation.
Note that a rebuilt policy via an updated policy toolchain
(libsepol/checkpolicy) is required in order to gain the full benefits of
this patch, although some memory savings benefits are immediately applied
even to older policies (in particular, the reduction in avtab node size).
Sources for the updated toolchain are presently available from the
sourceforge CVS tree (http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=21266), and
tarballs are available from http://www.flux.utah.edu/~sds.

show_smap calls first show_map and then prints its additional information to
the seq_file. show_map checks if all it has to print fits into the buffer and
if yes marks the current vma as written. While that is correct for show_map
it is not for show_smap. Here the vma should be marked as written only after
the additional information is also written.
The attached patch cures the problem. It moves the functionality of the
show_map function to a new function show_map_internal that is called with an
additional struct mem_size_stats* argument. Then show_map calls
show_map_internal with NULL as struct mem_size_stats* whereas show_smap calls
it with a real pointer. Now the final
if (m->count < m->size) /* vma is copied successfully */
m->version = (vma != get_gate_vma(task))? vma->vm_start: 0;

[PATCH] x86: ptep_clear optimization
Add a new accessor for PTEs, which passes the full hint from the mmu_gather
struct; this allows architectures with hardware pagetables to optimize away
atomic PTE operations when destroying an address space. Removing the
locked operation should allow better pipelining of memory access in this
loop. I measured an average savings of 30-35 cycles per zap_pte_range on
the first 500 destructions on Pentium-M, but I believe the optimization
would win more on older processors which still assert the bus lock on xchg
for an exclusive cacheline.
Update: I made some new measurements, and this saves exactly 26 cycles over
ptep_get_and_clear on Pentium M. On P4, with a PAE kernel, this saves 180
cycles per ptep_get_and_clear, for a whopping 92160 cycles savings for a
full address space destruction.
pte_clear_full is not yet used, but is provided for future optimizations
(in particular, when running inside of a hypervisor that queues page table
updates, the full hint allows us to avoid queueing unnecessary page table
update for an address space in the process of being destroyed.
This is not a huge win, but it does help a bit, and sets the stage for
further hypervisor optimization of the mm layer on all architectures.

all the pte page at the time of munmap. It used to only collect page
table pages when entire one pgd can be freed and left with staled pte

I also spotted two problems here, not Adam's fault :-)
(1) in huge_pte_alloc(), it looks like a bug to me that pud is not
checked before calling pmd_alloc()
(2) in hugetlb_clean_stale_pgtable(), it also missed a call to
pmd_free_tlb. I think a tlb flush is required to flush the mapping
for the page table itself when we clear out the pmd pointing to a
pte page. However, since hugetlb_clean_stale_pgtable() is never
called, so it won't trigger the bug.

[PATCH] hugetlb: move stale pte check into huge_pte_alloc()
Initial Post (Wed, 17 Aug 2005)
This patch moves the
if (! pte_none(*pte))
hugetlb_clean_stale_pgtable(pte);
logic into huge_pte_alloc() so all of its callers can be immune to the bug
described by Kenneth Chen at http://lkml.org/lkml/2004/6/16/246
> It turns out there is a bug in hugetlb_prefault(): with 3 level page table,
> huge_pte_alloc() might return a pmd that points to a PTE page. It happens
> if the virtual address for hugetlb mmap is recycled from previously used
> normal page mmap. free_pgtables() might not scrub the pmd entry on
> munmap and hugetlb_prefault skips on any pmd presence regardless what type

Unless I am missing something, it seems more correct to place the check inside
huge_pte_alloc() to prevent a the same bug wherever a huge pte is allocated.
It also allows checking for this condition when lazily faulting huge pages
later in the series.

[PATCH] arm: allow for arch-specific IOREMAP_MAX_ORDER
Version 6 of the ARM architecture introduces the concept of 16MB pages
(supersections) and 36-bit (40-bit actually, but nobody uses this) physical
addresses. 36-bit addressed memory and I/O and ARMv6 can only be mapped
using supersections and the requirement on these is that both virtual and
physical addresses be 16MB aligned. In trying to add support for ioremap()
of 36-bit I/O, we run into the issue that get_vm_area() allows for a
maximum of 512K alignment via the IOREMAP_MAX_ORDER constant. To work
around this, we can:
- Allocate a larger VM area than needed (size + (1ul << IOREMAP_MAX_ORDER))
and then align the pointer ourselves, but this ends up with 512K of
wasted VM per ioremap().
- Provide a new __get_vm_area_aligned() API and make __get_vm_area() sit
on top of this. I did this and it works but I don't like the idea
adding another VM API just for this one case.
- My preferred solution which is to allow the architecture to override
the IOREMAP_MAX_ORDER constant with it's own version.

Better late than never, I've at last reviewed the madvise vma merging
going into 2.6.13. Remove a pointless check and fix two little bugs -
a simple test (with /proc/<pid>/maps hacked to show ReadHints) showed
both mismerges in practice: though being madvise, neither was disastrous.
1. Correct placement of the success label in madvise_behavior: as in
mprotect_fixup and mlock_fixup, it is necessary to update vm_flags
when vma_merge succeeds (to handle the exceptional Case 8 noted in
the comments above vma_merge itself).
2. Correct initial value of prev when starting part way into a vma: as
in sys_mprotect and do_mlock, it needs to be set to vma in this case
(vma_merge handles only that minimum of cases shown in its comments).
3. If find_vma_prev sets prev, then the vma it returns is prev->vm_next,
so it's pointless to make that same assignment again in sys_madvise.

[PATCH] mm: remap ZERO_PAGE mappings
filemap_xip's nopage routine maps the ZERO_PAGE into readonly mappings, if it
has no data page to map there: then if the hole in the file is later filled,
__xip_unmap uses an rmap technique to replace the ZERO_PAGEs mapped for that
offset by the newly allocated file page, so that established mappings will see
the newly written data.
However, on MIPS (alone) there's not one but as many as eight ZERO_PAGEs,
chosen for coloring by user virtual address; and if mremap has meanwhile been
used to move a mapping containing a ZERO_PAGE, it will generally not match the
ZERO_PAGE(address) __xip_unmap is looking for.
To maintain XIP's established mappings correctly on MIPS, we need Nick's fix
to mremap's move_one_page (originally presented as an optimization), to
replace the ZERO_PAGE appropriate to the old address by the ZERO_PAGE
appropriate to the new address.
(But when I first saw this, I was thinking the ZERO_PAGEs themselves would get
corrupted, very bad. Now I think it's the other way round, that the
established mappings will fail to see the newly written data: incorrect, but
not corrupting everything else. Whether filemap_xip's technique is generally
safe, I'd hesitate to say in a hurry: it's interesting, but we've never tried
to do that in tmpfs.)

[PATCH] swap: swap_lock replace list+device
The idea of a swap_device_lock per device, and a swap_list_lock over them all,
is appealing; but in practice almost every holder of swap_device_lock must
already hold swap_list_lock, which defeats the purpose of the split.
The only exceptions have been swap_duplicate, valid_swaphandles and an
untrodden path in try_to_unuse (plus a few places added in this series).
valid_swaphandles doesn't show up high in profiles, but swap_duplicate does
demand attention. However, with the hold time in get_swap_pages so much
reduced, I've not yet found a load and set of swap device priorities to show
even swap_duplicate benefitting from the split. Certainly the split is mere
overhead in the common case of a single swap device.
So, replace swap_list_lock and swap_device_lock by spinlock_t swap_lock
(generally we seem to prefer an _ in the name, and not hide in a macro).
If someone can show a regression in swap_duplicate, then probably we should
add a hashlock for the swap_map entries alone (shorts being anatomic), so as
to help the case of the single swap device too.

[PATCH] swap: freeing update swap_list.next
This makes negligible difference in practice: but swap_list.next should not be
updated to a higher prio in the general helper swap_info_get, but rather in
swap_entry_free; and then only in the case when entry is actually freed.

[PATCH] swap: swap unsigned int consistency
The swap header's unsigned int last_page determines the range of swap pages,

[PATCH] swap: show span of swap extents
The "Adding %dk swap" message shows the number of swap extents, as a guide to
how fragmented the swapfile may be. But a useful further guide is what total
extent they span across (sometimes scarily large).
And there's no need to keep nr_extents in swap_info: it's unused after the
initial message, so save a little space by keeping it on stack.

[PATCH] swap: swap extent list is ordered
There are several comments that swap's extent_list.prev points to the lowest
extent: that's not so, it's extent_list.next which points to it, as you'd
expect. And a couple of loops in add_swap_extent which go all the way through
the list, when they should just add to the other end.
Fix those up, and let map_swap_page search the list forwards: profiles shows
it to be twice as quick that way - because prefetch works better on how the
structs are typically kmalloc'ed? or because usually more is written to than
read from swap, and swap is allocated ascendingly?

sys_swapon's call to destroy_swap_extents on failure is made after the final
swap_list_unlock, which is faintly unsafe: another sys_swapon might already be
setting up that swap_info_struct. Calling it earlier, before taking

[PATCH] sparsemem extreme implementation
With cleanups from Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com>
SPARSEMEM_EXTREME makes mem_section a one dimensional array of pointers to
mem_sections. This two level layout scheme is able to achieve smaller
memory requirements for SPARSEMEM with the tradeoff of an additional shift
and load when fetching the memory section. The current SPARSEMEM
implementation is a one dimensional array of mem_sections which is the
default SPARSEMEM configuration. The patch attempts isolates the
implementation details of the physical layout of the sparsemem section
array.
SPARSEMEM_EXTREME requires bootmem to be functioning at the time of
memory_present() calls. This is not always feasible, so architectures
which do not need it may allocate everything statically by using
SPARSEMEM_STATIC.

[PATCH] SPARSEMEM EXTREME
A new option for SPARSEMEM is ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME. Architecture
platforms with a very sparse physical address space would likely want to
select this option. For those architecture platforms that don't select the
option, the code generated is equivalent to SPARSEMEM currently in -mm.
I'll be posting a patch on ia64 ml which uses this new SPARSEMEM feature.
ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME makes mem_section a one dimensional array of
pointers to mem_sections. This two level layout scheme is able to achieve

ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME depends on 64BIT and is by default boolean false.
I've boot tested under aim load ia64 configured for ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME.
I've also boot tested a 4 way Opteron machine with !ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME
and tested with aim.
