c80e7a826c permit mempool_free(NULL)
Christian Borntraeger points out that mempool_free() doesn't noop when

54114994f4 fault-injection: add min-order parameter to fail_page_alloc
Limiting smaller allocation failures by fault injection helps to find real
possible bugs.  Because higher order allocations are likely to fail and
zero-order allocations are not likely to fail.

This patch adds min-order parameter to fail_page_alloc.  It specifies the
minimum page allocation order to be injected failures.

17973f5af7 Only send SIGXFSZ when exceeding rlimits.
Some users have been having problems with utilities like cp or dd dumping
core when they try to copy a file that's too large for the destination
filesystem (typically, > 4gb).  Apparently, some defunct standards required
SIGXFSZ to be sent in such circumstances, but SUS only requires/allows it
for when a written file exceeds the process's resource limits.  I'd like to
limit SIGXFSZs to the bare minimum required by SUS.

c44939ecb6 NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
The do_loop_readv_writev implementation of readv breaks out of the loop as
soon as a single read request didn't fill it's buffer:

		if (nr != len)
			break;

The generic_file_aio_read version doesn't.  So if it hits EOF before the end
of the list of buffers, it will try again on the next buffer.  If the file was
extended in the mean time, this will produce a bad result.

84a01c2f8e slob: sparsemem support
Currently slob is disabled if we're using sparsemem, due to an earlier
patch from Goto-san.  Slob and static sparsemem work without any trouble as
it is, and the only hiccup is a missing slab_is_available() in the case of
sparsemem extreme.  With this, we're rid of the last set of restrictions
for slob usage.

6193a2ff18 slob: initial NUMA support
This adds preliminary NUMA support to SLOB, primarily aimed at systems with
small nodes (tested all the way down to a 128kB SRAM block), whether
asymmetric or otherwise.

We follow the same conventions as SLAB/SLUB, preferring current node
placement for new pages, or with explicit placement, if a node has been
specified.  Presently on UP NUMA this has the side-effect of preferring
node#0 allocations (since numa_node_id() == 0, though this could be
reworked if we could hand off a pfn to determine node placement), so
single-CPU NUMA systems will want to place smaller nodes further out in
terms of node id.  Once a page has been bound to a node (via explicit node
id typing), we only do block allocations from partial free pages that have
a matching node id in the page flags.

The current implementation does have some scalability problems, in that all
partial free pages are tracked in the global freelist (with contention due
to the single spinlock).  However, these are things that are being reworked
for SMP scalability first, while things like per-node freelists can easily
be built on top of this sort of functionality once it's been added.

6ea6e6887d mm: more __meminit annotations
Currently zone_spanned_pages_in_node() and zone_absent_pages_in_node() are
non-static for ARCH_POPULATES_NODE_MAP and static otherwise.  However, only
the non-static versions are __meminit annotated, despite only being called
from __meminit functions in either case.

zone_init_free_lists() is currently non-static and not __meminit annotated
either, despite only being called once in the entire tree by
init_currently_empty_zone(), which too is __meminit.  So make it static and
properly annotated.

140d5a4904 numa: mempolicy: trivial debug fixes.
Enabling debugging fails to build due to the nodemask variable in
do_mbind() having changed names, and then oopses on boot due to the
assumption that the nodemask can be dereferenced -- which doesn't work out
so well when the policy is changed to MPOL_DEFAULT with a NULL nodemask by
numa_default_policy().

This fixes it up, and switches from PDprintk() to pr_debug() while
we're at it.

462e00cc71 oom: stop allocating user memory if TIF_MEMDIE is set
get_user_pages() can try to allocate a nearly unlimited amount of memory on
behalf of a user process, even if that process has been OOM killed.  The
OOM kill occurs upon return to user space via a SIGKILL, but
get_user_pages() will try allocate all its memory before returning.  Change
get_user_pages() to check for TIF_MEMDIE, and if set then return
immediately.

b71636e298 numa: mempolicy: dynamic interleave map for system init
This converts the default system init memory policy to use a dynamically
created node map instead of defaulting to all online nodes.  Nodes of a
certain size (>= 16MB) are judged to be suitable for interleave, and are added
to the map.  If all nodes are smaller in size, the largest one is
automatically selected.

Without this, tiny nodes find themselves out of memory before we even make it
to userspace.  Systems with large nodes will notice no change.

Only the system init policy is effected by this change, the regular
MPOL_DEFAULT policy is still switched to later on in the boot process as
normal.

f0630fff54 SLUB: support slub_debug on by default
Add a new configuration variable

CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON

If set then the kernel will be booted by default with slab debugging
switched on. Similar to CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG. By default slab debugging
is available but must be enabled by specifying "slub_debug" as a
kernel parameter.

Also add support to switch off slab debugging for a kernel that was
built with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON. This works by specifying

slub_debug=-

as a kernel parameter.

Dave Jones wanted this feature.

fc9a07e7bf invalidate_mapping_pages(): add cond_resched
invalidate_mapping_pages() can sometimes take a long time (millions of pages
to free).  Long enough for the softlockup detector to trigger.

We used to have a cond_resched() in there but I took it out because the
drop_caches code calls invalidate_mapping_pages() under inode_lock.

The patch adds a nasty flag and puts the cond_resched() back.
