2011-11-15lib: devres: add convenience function to remap a resourceWolfram Sang1-0/+1
Almost every platform_driver does the three steps get_resource, request_mem_region, ioremap. This does not only lead to a lot of code duplication, but also a huge number of similar error strings and inconsistent error codes on failure. So, introduce a helper function which simplifies remapping a resource and make it hard to do something wrong and add documentation for it.

2011-11-06ACPI: Export FADT pm_profile integer value to userspaceThomas Renninger1-0/+22
There are a lot userspace approaches to detect the usage of the platform (laptop, workstation, server, ...) and adjust kernel tunables accordingly (io/process scheduler, power management, ...). These approaches need constant maintaining and are ugly to implement (detect PCMCIA controller -> laptop, does not work on recent systems anymore, ...) On ACPI systems there is an easy and reliable way (if implemented in BIOS and most recent platforms have this value set). -> export it to userspace.

2011-11-04PM / Runtime: Automatically retry failed autosuspendsAlan Stern1-0/+10
Originally, the runtime PM core would send an idle notification whenever a suspend attempt failed. The idle callback routine could then schedule a delayed suspend for some time later. However this behavior was changed by commit f71648d73c1650b8b4aceb3856bebbde6daa3b86 (PM / Runtime: Remove idle notification after failing suspend). No notifications were sent, and there was no clear mechanism to retry failed suspends. This caused problems for the usbhid driver, because it fails autosuspend attempts as long as a key is being held down. Therefore this patch (as1492) adds a mechanism for retrying failed autosuspends. If the callback routine updates the last_busy field so that the next autosuspend expiration time is in the future, the autosuspend will automatically be rescheduled.

V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY control allows applications to instruct a driver what is the power line frequency so an appropriate filter can be used by the device to cancel flicker by compensating the light intensity ripple. Currently in the menu we have entries for 50 Hz and 60 Hz and for entirely disabling the anti-flicker filter. However some devices are capable of automatically detecting the frequency, so add V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY_AUTO entry for them.

2011-11-02memcg: skip scanning active lists based on individual sizeJohannes Weiner1-1/+0
Reclaim decides to skip scanning an active list when the corresponding inactive list is above a certain size in comparison to leave the assumed working set alone while there are still enough reclaim candidates around. The memcg implementation of comparing those lists instead reports whether the whole memcg is low on the requested type of inactive pages, considering all nodes and zones. This can lead to an oversized active list not being scanned because of the state of the other lists in the memcg, as well as an active list being scanned while its corresponding inactive list has enough pages. Not only is this wrong, it's also a scalability hazard, because the global memory state over all nodes and zones has to be gathered for each memcg and zone scanned. Make these calculations purely based on the size of the two LRU lists that are actually affected by the outcome of the decision.

2011-11-02vfs: add d_prune dentry operationSage Weil1-0/+1
This adds a d_prune dentry operation that is called by the VFS prior to pruning (i.e. unhashing and killing) a hashed dentry from the dcache. Wrap dentry_lru_del() and use the new _prune() helper in the cases where we are about to unhash and kill the dentry. This will be used by Ceph to maintain a flag indicating whether the complete contents of a directory are contained in the dcache, allowing it to satisfy lookups and readdir without addition server communication. Renumber a few DCACHE_* #defines to group DCACHE_OP_PRUNE with the other DCACHE_OP_ bits. Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
