vfs: Use const for kernel parser table

2008-10-13T17:10:37Z

This is a much better version of a previous patch to make the parser tables constant. Rather than changing the typedef, we put the "const" in all the various places where its required, allowing the __initconst exception for nfsroot which was the cause of the previous trouble. This was posted for review some time ago and I believe its been in -mm since then. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse Cc: Alexander Viro Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

SL*B: drop kmem cache argument from constructor

2008-07-26T19:00:07Z

Kmem cache passed to constructor is only needed for constructors that are themselves multiplexeres. Nobody uses this "feature", nor does anybody uses passed kmem cache in non-trivial way, so pass only pointer to object. Non-trivial places are: arch/powerpc/mm/init_64.c arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c This is flag day, yes.

affs: convert s_bmlock into a mutex

2008-07-26T19:00:03Z

The semaphore s_bmlock is used as a mutex. Convert it to the mutex API. Signed-off-by: Matthias Kaehlcke Cc: Roman Zippel Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] fix reservation discarding in affs

2008-05-06T17:45:33Z

- remove affs_put_inode, so preallocations aren't discared unnecessarily often. - remove affs_drop_inode, it's called with a spinlock held, so it can't use a mutex. - make i_opencnt atomic - avoid direct b_count manipulations - a few allocation failure fixes, so that these are more gracefully handled now.

mount options: fix affs

2008-02-08T17:22:39Z

Add a .show_options super operation to affs. Use generic_show_options() and save the complete option string in affs_fill_super() and affs_remount(). Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi Cc: Roman Zippel Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

iget: stop AFFS from using iget() and read_inode()

2008-02-07T16:42:27Z

Stop the AFFS filesystem from using iget() and read_inode(). Replace affs_read_inode() with affs_iget(), and call that instead of iget(). affs_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code instead of an inode in the event of an error. affs_fill_super() returns any error incurred when getting the root inode instead of EINVAL.

Slab API: remove useless ctor parameter and reorder parameters

2007-10-17T15:42:45Z

Slab constructors currently have a flags parameter that is never used. And the order of the arguments is opposite to other slab functions. The object pointer is placed before the kmem_cache pointer. Convert ctor(void *object, struct kmem_cache *s, unsigned long flags) to ctor(struct kmem_cache *s, void *object) throughout the kernel [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coupla fixes] Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create().

2007-07-20T01:11:58Z

Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's c59def9f222d44bb7e2f0a559f2906191a0862d7 change. They've been BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them either. This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create() completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves, or the documentation references).

Detach sched.h from mm.h

2007-05-21T16:18:19Z

First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock() mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why. This patch a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly. e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were getting them indirectly Net result is: a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if they don't need sched.h b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files: on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files, after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).
