This patchset introduces wakeup hints for some of the most popular (from
epoll POV) devices, so that epoll code can avoid spurious wakeups on its
waiters.
The problem with epoll is that the callback-based wakeups do not, ATM,
carry any information about the events the wakeup is related to. So the
only choice epoll has (not being able to call f_op->poll() from inside the
callback), is to add the file* to a ready-list and resolve the real events
later on, at epoll_wait() (or its own f_op->poll()) time. This can cause
spurious wakeups, since the wake_up() itself might be for an event the
caller is not interested into.
The rate of these spurious wakeup can be pretty high in case of many
network sockets being monitored.
By allowing devices to report the events the wakeups refer to (at least
the two major classes - POLLIN/POLLOUT), we are able to spare useless
wakeups by proper handling inside the epoll's poll callback.
Epoll will have in any case to call f_op->poll() on the file* later on,
since the change to be done in order to have the full event set sent via
wakeup, is too invasive for the way our f_op->poll() system works (the
full event set is calculated inside the poll function - there are too many
of them to even start thinking the change - also poll/select would need
change too).
Epoll is changed in a way that both devices which send event hints, and
the ones that don't, are correctly handled. The former will gain some
efficiency though.
As a general rule for devices, would be to add an event mask by using
key-aware wakeup macros, when making up poll wait queues. I tested it
(together with the epoll's poll fix patch Andrew has in -mm) and wakeups
for the supported devices are correctly filtered.
Test program available here:
http://www.xmailserver.org/epoll_test.c
This patch:
Nothing revolutionary here. Just using the available "key" that our
wakeup core already support. The __wake_up_locked_key() was no brainer,
since both __wake_up_locked() and __wake_up_locked_key() are thin wrappers
around __wake_up_common().
The __wake_up_sync() function had a body, so the choice was between
borrowing the body for __wake_up_sync_key() and calling it from
__wake_up_sync(), or make an inline and calling it from both. I chose the
former since in most archs it all resolves to "mov $0, REG; jmp ADDR".

Addresses http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9838
On i386, HZ=1000, jiffies_to_clock_t() converts time in a somewhat strange
way from the user's point of view:
# echo 500 >/proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs
# cat /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs
499
So, we have 5000 jiffies converted to only 499 clock ticks and reported
back.
TICK_NSEC = 999848
ACTHZ = 256039
Keeping in-kernel variable in units passed from userspace will fix issue
of course, but this probably won't be right for every sysctl.

Impact: cleanup
In almost cases, for_each_zone() is used with populated_zone(). It's
because almost function doesn't need memoryless node information.
Therefore, for_each_populated_zone() can help to make code simplify.
This patch has no functional change.

Change the ordering of the hibernation core code so that the platform
"prepare" callbacks are executed and the nonboot CPUs are disabled
after calling device drivers' "late suspend" methods.
This change (along with the previous analogous change of the suspend
core code) will allow us to rework the PCI PM core so that the power
state of devices is changed in the "late" phase of suspend (and
analogously in the "early" phase of resume), which in turn will allow
us to avoid the race condition where a device using shared interrupts
is put into a low power state with interrupts enabled and then an
interrupt (for another device) comes in and confuses its driver.

Use the functions introduced in by the previous patch,
suspend_device_irqs(), resume_device_irqs() and check_wakeup_irqs(),
to rework the handling of interrupts during suspend (hibernation) and
resume. Namely, interrupts will only be disabled on the CPU right
before suspending sysdevs, while device drivers will be prevented
from receiving interrupts, with the help of the new helper function,
before their "late" suspend callbacks run (and analogously during
resume).
In addition, since the device interrups are now disabled before the
CPU has turned all interrupts off and the CPU will ACK the interrupts
setting the IRQ_PENDING bit for them, check in sysdev_suspend() if
any wake-up interrupts are pending and abort suspend if that's the
case.

Introduce helper functions allowing us to prevent device drivers from
getting any interrupts (without disabling interrupts on the CPU)
during suspend (or hibernation) and to make them start to receive
interrupts again during the subsequent resume. These functions make it
possible to keep timer interrupts enabled while the "late" suspend and
"early" resume callbacks provided by device drivers are being
executed. In turn, this allows device drivers' "late" suspend and
"early" resume callbacks to sleep, execute ACPI callbacks etc.
The functions introduced here will be used to rework the handling of
interrupts during suspend (hibernation) and resume. Namely,
interrupts will only be disabled on the CPU right before suspending
sysdevs, while device drivers will be prevented from receiving
interrupts, with the help of the new helper function, before their
"late" suspend callbacks run (and analogously during resume).

Impact: cleanup
(Thanks to Al Viro for reminding me of this, via Ingo)
CPU_MASK_ALL is the (deprecated) "all bits set" cpumask, defined as so:
#define CPU_MASK_ALL (cpumask_t) { { ... } }
Taking the address of such a temporary is questionable at best,
unfortunately 321a8e9d (cpumask: add CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR macro) added
CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR:
#define CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR (&CPU_MASK_ALL)
Which formalizes this practice. One day gcc could bite us over this
usage (though we seem to have gotten away with it so far).
So replace everywhere which used &CPU_MASK_ALL or CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR
with the modern "cpu_all_mask" (a real const struct cpumask *).

simple_set_mnt() is defined as returning 'int' but always returns 0.
Callers assume simple_set_mnt() never fails and don't properly cleanup if
it were to _ever_ fail. For instance, get_sb_single() and get_sb_nodev()
should:
up_write(sb->s_unmount);
deactivate_super(sb);
if simple_set_mnt() fails.
Since simple_set_mnt() never fails, would be cleaner if it did not
return anything.

Impact: cleanup, micro-optimization
We don't need to perform power_savings balance if either the
cpu is NOT_IDLE or if the sched_domain doesn't contain the
SD_POWERSAVINGS_BALANCE flag set.
Currently, we check for these conditions multiple number of
times, even though these variables don't change over the scope
of find_busiest_group().
Check once, and store the value in the already exiting
"power_savings_balance" variable.

- update_sched_domain_statistics.
- check if imbalance exits.
- update imbalance and return busiest.

Impact: cleanup
We have two places in find_busiest_group() where we need to calculate
the minor imbalance before returning the busiest group. Encapsulate
this functionality into a seperate helper function.

Impact: cleanup
Create a helper function named update_sd_lb_stats() to update the
various sched_domain related statistics in find_busiest_group().
With this we would have moved all the statistics computation out of
find_busiest_group().

Impact: cleanup
Currently we use a lot of local variables in find_busiest_group()
to capture the various statistics related to the sched_domain.
Group them together into a single data structure.
This will help us to offload the job of updating the sched_domain
statistics to a helper function.

Impact: cleanup
Create a helper function named update_sg_lb_stats() which
can be invoked to calculate the individual group's statistics
in find_busiest_group().
This reduces the lenght of find_busiest_group() considerably.

Impact: cleanup
Currently a whole bunch of variables are used to store the
various statistics pertaining to the groups we iterate over
in find_busiest_group().
Group them together in a single data structure and add
appropriate comments.
This will be useful later on when we create helper functions
to calculate the sched_group statistics.

Impact: cleanup
Some indentations in find_busiest_group() can minimized by using
early exits with the help of gotos. This improves readability in
a couple of cases.

Impact: cleanup
Currently the load idx calculation code is in find_busiest_group().
Move that to a static inline helper function.
Similary, to find the first cpu of a sched_group we use
cpumask_first(sched_group_cpus(group))
Use a helper to that. It improves readability in some cases.

This patch combines Greg Bank's dprintk() work with the existing dynamic
printk patchset, we are now calling it 'dynamic debug'.
The new feature of this patchset is a richer /debugfs control file interface,
(an example output from my system is at the bottom), which allows fined grained
control over the the debug output. The output can be controlled by function,
file, module, format string, and line number.
for example, enabled all debug messages in module 'nf_conntrack':
echo -n 'module nf_conntrack +p' > /mnt/debugfs/dynamic_debug/control
to disable them:
echo -n 'module nf_conntrack -p' > /mnt/debugfs/dynamic_debug/control
A further explanation can be found in the documentation patch.

Impact: cleanup, new schedstat ABI
Since they are used on in statistics and are always set to zero, the
following fields from struct rq have been removed: yld_exp_empty,
yld_act_empty and yld_both_empty.
Both Sched Debug and SCHEDSTAT_VERSION versions has also been
incremented since ABIs have been changed.
The schedtop tool has been updated to properly handle new version of
schedstat:
