If node_load[] is cleared everytime build_zonelists() is called,node_load[] will have no help to find the next node that should appear in the given node's fallback list. Because of the bug, zonelist's node_order is not calculated as expected. This bug affects on big machine, which has asynmetric node distance. [synmetric NUMA's node distance] 0 1 2 0 10 12 12 1 12 10 12 2 12 12 10 [asynmetric NUMA's node distance] 0 1 2 0 10 12 20 1 12 10 14 2 20 14 10 This (my bug) is very old but no one has reported this for a long time. Maybe because the number of asynmetric NUMA is very small and they use cpuset for customizing node memory allocation fallback.

KOSAKI Motohiro authored
The commit 2ff05b2b (oom: move oom_adj value) moveed the oom_adj value to the mm_struct. It was a very good first step for sanitize OOM. However Paul Menage reported the commit makes regression to his job scheduler. Current OOM logic can kill OOM_DISABLED process. Why? His program has the code of similar to the following. ... set_oom_adj(OOM_DISABLE); /* The job scheduler never killed by oom */ ... if (vfork() == 0) { set_oom_adj(0); /* Invoked child can be killed */ execve("foo-bar-cmd"); } .... vfork() parent and child are shared the same mm_struct. then above set_oom_adj(0) doesn't only change oom_adj for vfork() child, it's also change oom_adj for vfork() parent. Then, vfork() parent (job scheduler) lost OOM immune and it was killed. Actually, fork-setting-exec idiom is very frequently used in userland program. We must not break this assumption. Then, this patch revert commit 2ff05b2b and related commit.

As PERF_COUNTER_INDEX_OFFSET is not defined. Now, we could define it in the architecture - but lets also provide a core default of 0 (which happens to be what all but one architecture uses at the moment). Architectures that need a different index offset should set this value in their asm/perf_counter.h files.

For noMMU system when you use larger rootfs image there is problem with using _end label because we increase klimit but in memory initialization we use still _end which is wrong. Larger mtd rootfs was rewritten by init_bootmem_node. MMU kernel use static initialization where klimit is setup to _end. There is no any other hanling with klimit.

In 5e140dfc "net: reorder struct Qdisc for better SMP performance" the definition of struct gnet_stats_basic changed incompatibly, as copies of this struct are shipped to userland via netlink. Restoring old behavior is not welcome, for performance reason. Fix is to use a private structure for kernel, and teach gnet_stats_copy_basic() to convert from kernel to user land, using legacy structure (struct gnet_stats_basic) Based on a report and initial patch from Michael Spang.

The static variable used by nr_call_to_digi might result in corruption if multiple threads are trying to usee a node or neighbour via ioctl. Fixed by having the caller pass a structure in.

The inotify_add_watch man page specifies that inotify_add_watch() will return a non-negative integer. However, historically the inotify watches started at 1, not at 0. Turns out that the inotifywait program provided by the inotify-tools package doesn't properly handle a 0 watch descriptor. In 7e790dd5 we changed from starting at 1 to starting at 0. This patch starts at 1, just like in previous kernels, but also just like in previous kernels it's possible for it to wrap back to 0. This preserves the kernel functionality exactly like it was before the patch (neither method broke the spec) Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

In f44aebcc the tail drop logic of events with no file backing (q_overflow and in_ignored) was reversed so IN_IGNORED events would never be tail dropped. This now means that Q_OVERFLOW events are NOT tail dropped. The fix is to not tail drop IN_IGNORED, but to tail drop Q_OVERFLOW.

inotify decides if private data it passed to get added to an event was used by checking list_empty(). But it's possible that the event may have been dequeued and the private event removed so it would look empty. The fix is to use the return code from fsnotify_add_notify_event rather than looking at the list.
