Pull cleanup from Paul Gortmaker: "The changes shown here are to unify linux's BUG support under the one file. Due to historical reasons, we have some BUG code in bug.h and some in kernel.h -- i.e. the support for BUILD_BUG in linux/kernel.h predates the addition of linux/bug.h, but old code in kernel.h wasn't moved to bug.h at that time. As a band-aid, kernel.h was including to pseudo link them. This has caused confusion[1] and general yuck/WTF[2] reactions. Here is an example that violates the principle of least surprise: CC lib/string.o lib/string.c: In function 'strlcat': lib/string.c:225:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'BUILD_BUG_ON' make[2]: *** [lib/string.o] Error 1 $ $ grep linux/bug.h lib/string.c #include $ We've included for the BUG infrastructure and yet we still get a compile fail! [We've not kernel.h for BUILD_BUG_ON.] Ugh - very confusing for someone who is new to kernel development. With the above in mind, the goals of this changeset are: 1) find and fix any include/*.h files that were relying on the implicit presence of BUG code. 2) find and fix any C files that were consuming kernel.h and hence relying on implicitly getting some/all BUG code. 3) Move the BUG related code living in kernel.h to 4) remove the asm/bug.h from kernel.h to finally break the chain. During development, the order was more like 3-4, build-test, 1-2. But to ensure that git history for bisect doesn't get needless build failures introduced, the commits have been reorderd to fix the problem areas in advance.

thp: allow a hwpoisoned head page to be put back to LRU

2012-03-22T00:54:58Z

Andrea Arcangeli pointed out to me that a check in __memory_failure() which was intended to prevent THP tail pages from being checked for the absence of the PG_lru flag (something that is always the case), was also preventing THP head pages from being checked. A THP head page could actually benefit from the call to shake_page() by ending up being put back to a LRU, provided it had been waiting in a pagevec array. Andrea suggested that the "!PageTransCompound(p)" in the if-statement should be replaced by a "!PageTransTail(p)", thus allowing THP head pages to be checked and possibly shaken.

BUG: headers with BUG/BUG_ON etc. need linux/bug.h

2012-03-04T22:54:34Z

If a header file is making use of BUG, BUG_ON, BUILD_BUG_ON, or any other BUG variant in a static inline (i.e. not in a #define) then that header really should be including and not just expecting it to be implicitly present. We can make this change risk-free, since if the files using these headers didn't have exposure to linux/bug.h already, they would have been causing compile failures/warnings.

slub: Do not use frozen page flag but a bit in the page counters

2011-07-02T10:26:52Z

Do not use a page flag for the frozen bit. It needs to be part of the state that is handled with cmpxchg_double(). So use a bit in the counter struct in the page struct for that purpose. Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg

[S390] mm: fix storage key handling

2011-05-29T10:40:51Z

page_get_storage_key() and page_set_storage_key() expect a page address and not its page frame number. This got inconsistent with 2d42552d "[S390] merge page_test_dirty and page_clear_dirty". Result is that we read/write storage keys from random pages and do not have a working dirty bit tracking at all. E.g. SetPageUpdate() doesn't clear the dirty bit of requested pages, which for example ext4 doesn't like very much and panics after a while.

[S390] merge page_test_dirty and page_clear_dirty

2011-05-23T08:24:31Z

The page_clear_dirty primitive always sets the default storage key which resets the access control bits and the fetch protection bit. That will surprise a KVM guest that sets non-zero access control bits or the fetch protection bit. Merge page_test_dirty and page_clear_dirty back to a single function and only clear the dirty bit from the storage key. In addition move the function page_test_and_clear_dirty and page_test_and_clear_young to page.h where they belong. This requires to change the parameter from a struct page * to a page frame number.

thp: remove PG_buddy

2011-01-14T01:32:43Z

PG_buddy can be converted to _mapcount == -2. So the PG_compound_lock can be added to page->flags without overflowing (because of the sparse section bits increasing) with CONFIG_X86_PAE=y and CONFIG_X86_PAT=y. This also has to move the memory hotplug code from _mapcount to lru.next to avoid any risk of clashes. We can't use lru.next for PG_buddy removal, but memory hotplug can use lru.next even more easily than the mapcount instead.
