Currently the rt group scheduling does a per cpu runtime limit, however the rt load balancer makes no guarantees about an equal spread of real- time tasks, just that at any one time, the highest priority tasks run. Solve this by making the runtime limit a global property by borrowing excessive runtime from the other cpus once the local limit runs out.

Various SMP balancing algorithms require that the bandwidth period run in sync. Possible improvements are moving the rt_bandwidth thing into root_domain and keeping a span per rt_bandwidth which marks throttled cpus.

The wakeup buddy logic didn't use the same wakeup granularity logic as the wakeup preemption did, this might cause the ->next buddy to be selected past the point where we would have preempted had the task been a single running instance.

security_module_enable() can only be called during kernel init. Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>

Ahmed S. Darwish authored
Add the security= boot parameter. This is done to avoid LSM registration clashes in case of more than one bult-in module. User can choose a security module to enable at boot. If no security= boot parameter is specified, only the first LSM asking for registration will be loaded. An invalid security module name will be treated as if no module has been chosen. LSM modules must check now if they are allowed to register by calling security_module_enable(ops) first. Modify SELinux and SMACK to do so. Do not let SMACK register smackfs if it was not chosen on boot. Smackfs assumes that smack hooks are registered and the initial task security setup (swapper->security) is done.

This patch effectively reverts commit d0498d9a aka "[NET]: Do not allocate unneeded memory for dev->priv alignment." It was found to be buggy because of final unconditional += NETDEV_ALIGN_CONST removal. For example, for sizeof(struct net_device) being 2048 bytes, "alloc_size" was also 2048 bytes, but allocator with debugging options turned on started giving out !32-byte aligned memory resulting in redzones overwrites. Patch does small optimization in ->priv'less case: bumping size to next 32-byte boundary was always done to ensure ->priv will also be aligned. But, no ->priv, no need to do that.

The kernel now panics reliably on boot if you have a SATAPI device connected. The problem was introduced by the libata merge trying to pull out all the SFF code into a separate module. Unfortunately, if you're a satapi device you usually need to call atapi_request_sense, which has a bare invocation of a SFF callback which is NULL on non-SFF HBAs. Fix this by making the call conditional. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
