2005-09-05[PATCH] swap: swap extent list is orderedHugh Dickins
There are several comments that swap's extent_list.prev points to the lowest extent: that's not so, it's extent_list.next which points to it, as you'd expect. And a couple of loops in add_swap_extent which go all the way through the list, when they should just add to the other end. Fix those up, and let map_swap_page search the list forwards: profiles shows it to be twice as quick that way - because prefetch works better on how the structs are typically kmalloc'ed? or because usually more is written to than read from swap, and swap is allocated ascendingly?

2005-09-05[PATCH] swap: move destroy_swap_extents callsHugh Dickins
sys_swapon's call to destroy_swap_extents on failure is made after the final swap_list_unlock, which is faintly unsafe: another sys_swapon might already be setting up that swap_info_struct. Calling it earlier, before taking swap_list_lock, is safe. sys_swapoff's call to destroy_swap_extents was safe, but likewise move it earlier, before taking the locks (once try_to_unuse has completed, nothing can be needing the swap extents).

2005-09-05[PATCH] swap: correct swapfile nr_good_pagesHugh Dickins
If a regular swapfile lies on a filesystem whose blocksize is less than PAGE_SIZE, then setup_swap_extents may have to cut the number of usable swap pages; but sys_swapon's nr_good_pages was not expecting that. Also, setup_swap_extents takes no account of badpages listed in the swap header: not worth doing so, but ensure nr_badpages is 0 for a regular swapfile.

2005-09-05[PATCH] mm: consolidate get_orderStephen Rothwell
Someone mentioned that almost all the architectures used basically the same implementation of get_order. This patch consolidates them into asm-generic/page.h and includes that in the appropriate places. The exceptions are ia64 and ppc which have their own (presumably optimised) versions.

2005-09-05[PATCH] sparsemem extreme: hotplug preparationDave Hansen
This splits up sparse_index_alloc() into two pieces. This is needed because we'll allocate the memory for the second level in a different place from where we actually consume it to keep the allocation from happening underneath a lock Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Bob Picco <bob.picco@hp.com> Cc: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-09-05[PATCH] sparsemem extreme implementationBob Picco
With cleanups from Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com> SPARSEMEM_EXTREME makes mem_section a one dimensional array of pointers to mem_sections. This two level layout scheme is able to achieve smaller memory requirements for SPARSEMEM with the tradeoff of an additional shift and load when fetching the memory section. The current SPARSEMEM implementation is a one dimensional array of mem_sections which is the default SPARSEMEM configuration. The patch attempts isolates the implementation details of the physical layout of the sparsemem section array. SPARSEMEM_EXTREME requires bootmem to be functioning at the time of memory_present() calls. This is not always feasible, so architectures which do not need it may allocate everything statically by using SPARSEMEM_STATIC.

2005-09-05[PATCH] SPARSEMEM EXTREMEBob Picco
A new option for SPARSEMEM is ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME. Architecture platforms with a very sparse physical address space would likely want to select this option. For those architecture platforms that don't select the option, the code generated is equivalent to SPARSEMEM currently in -mm. I'll be posting a patch on ia64 ml which uses this new SPARSEMEM feature. ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME makes mem_section a one dimensional array of pointers to mem_sections. This two level layout scheme is able to achieve smaller memory requirements for SPARSEMEM with the tradeoff of an additional shift and load when fetching the memory section. The current SPARSEMEM -mm implementation is a one dimensional array of mem_sections which is the default SPARSEMEM configuration. The patch attempts isolates the implementation details of the physical layout of the sparsemem section array. ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME depends on 64BIT and is by default boolean false. I've boot tested under aim load ia64 configured for ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME. I've also boot tested a 4 way Opteron machine with !ARCH_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME and tested with aim.

2005-09-01[PATCH] Fix bug in ppc64 dynamic hugepage supportDavid Gibson
In adjusting the logic for SLB miss for the dynamic hugepage stuff, I messed up the !CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE case, failing to set the SLB flags properly. This fixes it. It also streamlines the logic for the HUGETLB_PAGE case (removing a couple of branches) while we're at it. Booted, and roughly tested on POWER5 (with and without HUGETLB_PAGE), iSeries/RS64 (no hugepage available), and G5 (with and without HUGETLB_PAGE).
