fix RCU-callback-after-kmem_cache_destroy problem in sl[aou]b

2009-06-26T09:10:47Z

Jesper noted that kmem_cache_destroy() invokes synchronize_rcu() rather than rcu_barrier() in the SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU case, which could result in RCU callbacks accessing a kmem_cache after it had been destroyed.

page allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller knows the node is valid

2009-06-17T02:47:32Z

Callers of alloc_pages_node() can optionally specify -1 as a node to mean "allocate from the current node". However, a number of the callers in fast paths know for a fact their node is valid. To avoid a comparison and branch, this patch adds alloc_pages_exact_node() that only checks the nid with VM_BUG_ON(). Callers that know their node is valid are then converted.

tracing, kmemtrace: Separate include/trace/kmemtrace.h to kmemtrace part and tracepoint part

2009-04-12T13:22:55Z

Impact: refactor code for future changes Current kmemtrace.h is used both as header file of kmemtrace and kmem's tracepoints definition. Tracepoints' definition file may be used by other code, and should only have definition of tracepoint. We can separate include/trace/kmemtrace.h into 2 files: include/linux/kmemtrace.h: header file for kmemtrace include/trace/kmem.h: definition of kmem tracepoints Signed-off-by: Zhao Lei Acked-by: Eduard - Gabriel Munteanu Acked-by: Pekka Enberg Cc: Steven Rostedt Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Tom Zanussi LKML-Reference: <49DEE68A.5040902@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

kmemtrace: trace kfree() calls with NULL or zero-length objects

2009-04-03T10:23:10Z

Impact: also output kfree(NULL) entries This patch moves the trace_kfree() calls before the ZERO_OR_NULL_PTR check so that we can trace call-sites that call kfree() with NULL many times which might be an indication of a bug.
