2011-05-25mmap: avoid unnecessary anon_vma lockShaohua Li
If we only change vma->vm_end, we can avoid taking anon_vma lock even if 'insert' isn't NULL, which is the case of split_vma. As I understand it, we need the lock before because rmap must get the 'insert' VMA when we adjust old VMA's vm_end (the 'insert' VMA is linked to anon_vma list in __insert_vm_struct before). But now this isn't true any more. The 'insert' VMA is already linked to anon_vma list in __split_vma(with anon_vma_clone()) instead of __insert_vm_struct. There is no race rmap can't get required VMAs. So the anon_vma lock is unnecessary, and this can reduce one locking in brk case and improve scalability.

2011-05-25arch, mm: filter disallowed nodes from arch specific show_mem functionsDavid Rientjes
Architectures that implement their own show_mem() function did not pass the filter argument to show_free_areas() to appropriately avoid emitting the state of nodes that are disallowed in the current context. This patch now passes the filter argument to show_free_areas() so those nodes are now avoided. This patch also removes the show_free_areas() wrapper around __show_free_areas() and converts existing callers to pass an empty filter. ia64 emits additional information for each node, so skip_free_areas_zone() must be made global to filter disallowed nodes and it is converted to use a nid argument rather than a zone for this use case.

2011-05-25xtensa/mm: remove WANT_PAGE_VIRTUALSebastian Andrzej Siewior
This is not useful: it provides page->virtual and is used with highmem. xtensa has no support for highmem and those HIGHMEM bits which are found by grep are partly implemented. The interesting functions like kmap() are missing. If someone actually implements the complete HIGHMEM support he could use HASHED_PAGE_VIRTUAL like most others do.

2011-05-25mm: vmscan: correctly check if reclaimer should schedule during shrink_slabMinchan Kim
It has been reported on some laptops that kswapd is consuming large amounts of CPU and not being scheduled when SLUB is enabled during large amounts of file copying. It is expected that this is due to kswapd missing every cond_resched() point because; shrink_page_list() calls cond_resched() if inactive pages were isolated which in turn may not happen if all_unreclaimable is set in shrink_zones(). If for whatver reason, all_unreclaimable is set on all zones, we can miss calling cond_resched(). balance_pgdat() only calls cond_resched if the zones are not balanced. For a high-order allocation that is balanced, it checks order-0 again. During that window, order-0 might have become unbalanced so it loops again for order-0 and returns that it was reclaiming for order-0 to kswapd(). It can then find that a caller has rewoken kswapd for a high-order and re-enters balance_pgdat() without ever calling cond_resched(). shrink_slab only calls cond_resched() if we are reclaiming slab pages. If there are a large number of direct reclaimers, the shrinker_rwsem can be contended and prevent kswapd calling cond_resched(). This patch modifies the shrink_slab() case. If the semaphore is contended, the caller will still check cond_resched(). After each successful call into a shrinker, the check for cond_resched() remains in case one shrinker is particularly slow.

2011-05-25mm: vmscan: correct use of pgdat_balanced in sleeping_prematurelyJohannes Weiner
There are a few reports of people experiencing hangs when copying large amounts of data with kswapd using a large amount of CPU which appear to be due to recent reclaim changes. SLUB using high orders is the trigger but not the root cause as SLUB has been using high orders for a while. The root cause was bugs introduced into reclaim which are addressed by the following two patches. Patch 1 corrects logic introduced by commit 1741c877 ("mm: kswapd: keep kswapd awake for high-order allocations until a percentage of the node is balanced") to allow kswapd to go to sleep when balanced for high orders. Patch 2 notes that it is possible for kswapd to miss every cond_resched() and updates shrink_slab() so it'll at least reach that scheduling point. Chris Wood reports that these two patches in isolation are sufficient to prevent the system hanging. AFAIK, they should also resolve similar hangs experienced by James Bottomley. This patch: Johannes Weiner poined out that the logic in commit 1741c877 ("mm: kswapd: keep kswapd awake for high-order allocations until a percentage of the node is balanced") is backwards. Instead of allowing kswapd to go to sleep when balancing for high order allocations, it keeps it kswapd running uselessly.

2011-05-25slub: Fix double bit unlock in debug modeChristoph Lameter
Commit 442b06bcea23 ("slub: Remove node check in slab_free") added a call to deactivate_slab() in the debug case in __slab_alloc(), which unlocks the current slab used for allocation. Going to the label 'unlock_out' then does it again. Also, in the debug case we do not need all the other processing that the 'unlock_out' path does. We always fall back to the slow path in the debug case. So the tid update is useless. Similarly, ALLOC_SLOWPATH would just be incremented for all allocations. Also a pretty useless thing. So simply restore irq flags and return the object.
