____call_usermodehelper() now erases any credentials set by the
subprocess_inf::init() function. The problem is that commit
17f60a7da1 ("capabilites: allow the application of capability limits
to usermode helpers") creates and commits new credentials with
prepare_kernel_cred() after the call to the init() function. This wipes
all keyrings after umh_keys_init() is called.
The best way to deal with this is to put the init() call just prior to
the commit_creds() call, and pass the cred pointer to init(). That
means that umh_keys_init() and suchlike can modify the credentials
_before_ they are published and potentially in use by the rest of the
system.
This prevents request_key() from working as it is prevented from passing
the session keyring it set up with the authorisation token to
/sbin/request-key, and so the latter can't assume the authority to
instantiate the key. This causes the in-kernel DNS resolver to fail
with ENOKEY unconditionally.

The "hostname" tool falls back to setting the hostname to "localhost" if
/etc/hostname does not exist. Distribution init scripts have the same
fallback. However, if userspace never calls sethostname, such as when
booting with init=/bin/sh, or otherwise booting a minimal system without
the usual init scripts, the default hostname of "(none)" remains,
unhelpfully appearing in various places such as prompts ("root@(none):~#")
and logs. Furthermore, "(none)" doesn't typically resolve to anything
useful.
Make the default hostname configurable. This removes the need for the
standard fallback, provides a useful default for systems that never call
sethostname, and makes minimal systems that much more useful with less
configuration. Distributions could choose to use "localhost" here to
avoid the fallback, while embedded systems may wish to use a specific
target hostname.

Recently, Robert Mueller reported (http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/9/12/236)
that zone_reclaim_mode doesn't work properly on his new NUMA server (Dual
Xeon E5520 + Intel S5520UR MB). He is using Cyrus IMAPd and it's built on
a very traditional single-process model.
* a master process which reads config files and manages the other
process
* multiple imapd processes, one per connection
* multiple pop3d processes, one per connection
* multiple lmtpd processes, one per connection
* periodical "cleanup" processes.
There are thousands of independent processes. The problem is, recent
Intel motherboard turn on zone_reclaim_mode by default and traditional
prefork model software don't work well on it. Unfortunatelly, such models
are still typical even in the 21st century. We can't ignore them.
This patch raises the zone_reclaim_mode threshold to 30. 30 doesn't have
any specific meaning. but 20 means that one-hop QPI/Hypertransport and
such relatively cheap 2-4 socket machine are often used for traditional
servers as above. The intention is that these machines don't use
zone_reclaim_mode.
Note: ia64 and Power have arch specific RECLAIM_DISTANCE definitions.
This patch doesn't change such high-end NUMA machine behavior.
Dave Hansen said:
: I know specifically of pieces of x86 hardware that set the information
: in the BIOS to '21' *specifically* so they'll get the zone_reclaim_mode
: behavior which that implies.
:
: They've done performance testing and run very large and scary benchmarks
: to make sure that they _want_ this turned on. What this means for them
: is that they'll probably be de-optimized, at least on newer versions of
: the kernel.
:
: If you want to do this for particular systems, maybe _that_'s what we
: should do. Have a list of specific configurations that need the
: defaults overridden either because they're buggy, or they have an
: unusual hardware configuration not really reflected in the distance
: table.
And later said:
: The original change in the hardware tables was for the benefit of a
: benchmark. Said benchmark isn't going to get run on mainline until the
: next batch of enterprise distros drops, at which point the hardware where
: this was done will be irrelevant for the benchmark. I'm sure any new
: hardware will just set this distance to another yet arbitrary value to
: make the kernel do what it wants. :)
:
: Also, when the hardware got _set_ to this initially, I complained. So, I
: guess I'm getting my way now, with this patch. I'm cool with it.

Currently, memcg reclaim can disable swap token even if the swap token mm
doesn't belong in its memory cgroup. It's slightly risky. If an admin
creates very small mem-cgroup and silly guy runs contentious heavy memory
pressure workload, every tasks are going to lose swap token and then
system may become unresponsive. That's bad.
This patch adds 'memcg' parameter into disable_swap_token(). and if the
parameter doesn't match swap token, VM doesn't disable it.

* new refcount in struct net, controlling actual freeing of the memory
* new method in kobj_ns_type_operations (->drop_ns())
* ->current_ns() semantics change - it's supposed to be followed by
corresponding ->drop_ns(). For struct net in case of CONFIG_NET_NS it bumps
the new refcount; net_drop_ns() decrements it and calls net_free() if the
last reference has been dropped. Method renamed to ->grab_current_ns().
* old net_free() callers call net_drop_ns() instead.
* sysfs_exit_ns() is gone, along with a large part of callchain
leading to it; now that the references stored in ->ns[...] stay valid we
do not need to hunt them down and replace them with NULL. That fixes
problems in sysfs_lookup() and sysfs_readdir(), along with getting rid
of sb->s_instances abuse.
Note that struct net *shutdown* logics has not changed - net_cleanup()
is called exactly when it used to be called. The only thing postponed by
having a sysfs instance refering to that struct net is actual freeing of
memory occupied by struct net.

Testing of VLAN_FLAG_REORDER_HDR does not belong in vlan_untag
but rather in vlan_do_receive. Otherwise the vlan header
will not be properly put on the packet in the case of
vlan header accelleration.
As we remove the check from vlan_check_reorder_header
rename it vlan_reorder_header to keep the naming clean.
Fix up the skb->pkt_type early so we don't look at the packet
after adding the vlan tag, which guarantees we don't goof
and look at the wrong field.
Use a simple if statement instead of a complicated switch
statement to decided that we need to increment rx_stats
for a multicast packet.
Hopefully at somepoint we will just declare the case where
VLAN_FLAG_REORDER_HDR is cleared as unsupported and remove
the code. Until then this keeps it working correctly.

swiotlb: Export swioltb_nr_tbl and utilize it as appropiate.
This tries to make the 'struct inode' accesses denser in the data cache
by moving a commonly accessed field (i_security) closer to other fields
that are accessed often.
It also makes 'i_state' just an 'unsigned int' rather than 'unsigned
long', since we only use a few bits of that field, and moves it next to
the existing 'i_flags' so that we potentially get better structure
layout (although depending on config options, i_flags may already have
packed in the same word as i_lock, so this improves packing only for the
case of spinlock debugging)
Out 'struct inode' is still way too big, and we should probably move
some other fields around too (the acl fields in particular) for better
data cache access density. Other fields (like the inode hash) are
likely to be entirely irrelevant under most loads.
