fbdev: da8xx/omap-l1xx: implement double buffering
This work includes the following:
- Implement handler for FBIO_WAITFORVSYNC ioctl.
- Allocate the data and palette buffers separately. A consequence of
this is that the palette and data loading is now done in different
phases. And that the LCD must be disabled temporarily after the palette
is loaded but this will only happen once after init and each time the
palette is changed. I think this is OK.
- Allocate two (ping and pong) framebuffers from memory.
- Add pan_display handler which toggles the LCDC DMA registers between
the ping and pong buffers.

rtc_dev_ioctl()
=> rtc_update_irq_enable()
=> cmos_update_irq_enable()

rtc_device_register() which makes the ioctl operations live so I moved

scripts/get_maintainer.pl: default to not include unspecified tags
This changes the default of the option --git-all-signature-types to be
disabled by default.
The effect being, that only certain (currently Signed-Off-By:, Acked-by:
and Reviewed-By:) tags are used to get adresses of potential maintainers.
Motivated is this change by the desire to not 'spam' people unnecessary: A
Tested-By or a Reported-By is not ment as a hint that those people want
to/are able to review patches to the code in question.
In a quest to find resilient statistics for this i came up with this:
I produced a list of all the tag-signers not already covered with a
signed-off/acked/reviewed tag somewhere in the last year of git history.
Those were 650 addresses of "assumed non-developers".
And to check if those "assumed non-developers" are professional
testers/reporters worth cc'ing, i then counted their total appearences
in the git log:
469 were mentioned only once.
123 were mentioned twice.
38 three times
8 four times
5 six times
5 five times
1 eight times
1 fourteen times
I believe this supports my thesis, that the ''non-maintainer-tags'' are
not actively useful for patch-review. (except probably the guy mentioned
fourteen times...)
But of course one could also find arguments to poke holes in this
statistics, for example does this statistic not include code-locality: A
tested-by on a patch that touches some specific piece of code can be more
worth than a signed-off in another part of the tree.
But... let's play it safe and let's err on the "safe" side meaning to not
spam those people when in doubt. We already have the signed-off's and
Maintainers file. So this should be ok. And if need be, the maintainers
can always forward the patch.
[i probably could make a diploma thesis out of this changelog :)]

scripts/get_maintainer.pl: optionally ignore non-maintainer signatures
When using --git to determine who to send a patch to, get_maintainers will
currently include all signatures. This can include signers that simply
report an issue or test a patch. Signers that use this tag are not
necessarily good candidates to review new patches.
This patch allows get_maintainers to optionally restrict output to only
signatures that use Signed-off-by:, Acked-by:, or Reviewed-by:.
Signed-off-by: is included because those are people who are responsible
for the code.
Acked-by: is questionable, but as signers that use this tag tend to be
active linux gatekeepers, false positives are tolerable.
Reviewed-by: is included because signers responsible for the code thought
that the review feedback for a changeset by that signer was valuable.
This patch has been modified from Florian's original submission to change
the supported signature types to the canonical forms and use slightly
different spacing. A couple of spacing issues were also corrected in the
original source. The command line argument was also renamed.

hangcheck-timer: fix x86_32 bugs
drivers/char/hangcheck-timer.c is doubly broken. When the overflown value
of TIMER_FREQ is abnormally low, it spams the syslog with KERN_CRIT
messages "Hangcheck: hangcheck value past margin!" But whether it happens
or not depends on HZ and lpj in a complex way. People have hit it
occasionally as far as google search can tell.
First, the following line overflows unsigned long:
# define TIMER_FREQ (HZ*loops_per_jiffy)
Second, and more importantly, loops_per_jiffy has little to do with the
con= version from the the time scale of get_cycles() (aka rdtsc) to the
time scale of jiffies.
The attached patch resolves both of the problems.

Linux does not define __BYTE_ORDER in its endian header files which makes

cpuidle: add a repeating pattern detector to the menu governor
Currently, the menu governor uses the (corrected) next timer as key item
for predicting the idle duration.
It turns out that there are specific cases where this breaks down: There
are cases where we have a very repetitive pattern of idle durations, where
the idle period is pretty much the same, for reasons completely unrelated
to the next timer event. Examples of such repeating patterns are network
loads with irq mitigation, the mouse moving but in theory also the wifi
beacons.
This patch adds a relatively simple detector for such repeating patterns,
where the standard deviation of the last 8 idle periods is compared to a
threshold.
With this extra predictor in place, measurements show that the DECAY
factor can now be increased (the decaying average will now decay slower)
to get an even more stable result.

big.
To avoid underflow, we don't use percentage, instead we directly calculate
how many pages should be scaned. In this way, we should get several
scanned pages for < 1% percent.
This has some benefits:
1. increase our calculation precision
2. making our scan more smoothly. Without this, if percent[x] is
underflow, shrink_zone() doesn't scan any pages and suddenly it scans
all pages when priority is zero. With this, even priority isn't zero,
shrink_zone() gets chance to scan some pages.
Note, this patch doesn't really change logics, but just increase
precision. For system with a lot of memory, this might slightly changes
behavior. For example, in a sequential file read workload, without the
patch, we don't swap any anon pages. With it, if anon memory size is
bigger than 16G, we will see one anon page swapped. The 16G is calculated
as PAGE_SIZE * priority(4096) * (fp/ap). fp/ap is assumed to be 1024
which is common in this workload. So the impact sounds not a big deal.

mm: consider the entire user address space during node migration
Use mm->task_size instead of TASK_SIZE to ensure that the entire user
address space is migrated. mm->task_size is independent of the calling
task context. TASK SIZE may be dependant on the address space size of the

migration if the calling process was 32 bit and the migrating process was
64 bit.
Here is the test script used on 64 system with a 32 bit echo process:
mount -t cgroup none /cgroup -o cpuset

mm: compaction: defer compaction using an exponential backoff when compaction fails
The fragmentation index may indicate that a failure is due to external
fragmentation but after a compaction run completes, it is still possible
for an allocation to fail. There are two obvious reasons as to why
o Page migration cannot move all pages so fragmentation remains
o A suitable page may exist but watermarks are not met
In the event of compaction followed by an allocation failure, this patch
defers further compaction in the zone (1 << compact_defer_shift) times.
If the next compaction attempt also fails, compact_defer_shift is
increased up to a maximum of 6. If compaction succeeds, the defer
counters are reset again.
The zone that is deferred is the first zone in the zonelist - i.e. the
preferred zone. To defer compaction in the other zones, the information
would need to be stored in the zonelist or implemented similar to the
zonelist_cache. This would impact the fast-paths and is not justified at
this time.

mm: compaction: add a tunable that decides when memory should be compacted and when it should be reclaimed
The kernel applies some heuristics when deciding if memory should be
compacted or reclaimed to satisfy a high-order allocation. One of these
is based on the fragmentation. If the index is below 500, memory will not
be compacted. This choice is arbitrary and not based on data. To help
optimise the system and set a sensible default for this value, this patch
adds a sysctl extfrag_threshold. The kernel will only compact memory if
the fragmentation index is above the extfrag_threshold.

mm: compaction: direct compact when a high-order allocation fails
Ordinarily when a high-order allocation fails, direct reclaim is entered
to free pages to satisfy the allocation. With this patch, it is
determined if an allocation failed due to external fragmentation instead
of low memory and if so, the calling process will compact until a suitable
page is freed. Compaction by moving pages in memory is considerably
cheaper than paging out to disk and works where there are locked pages or
no swap. If compaction fails to free a page of a suitable size, then
reclaim will still occur.
Direct compaction returns as soon as possible. As each block is
compacted, it is checked if a suitable page has been freed and if so, it
returns.

mm: compaction: memory compaction core
This patch is the core of a mechanism which compacts memory in a zone by
relocating movable pages towards the end of the zone.
A single compaction run involves a migration scanner and a free scanner.
Both scanners operate on pageblock-sized areas in the zone. The migration
scanner starts at the bottom of the zone and searches for all movable
pages within each area, isolating them onto a private list called
migratelist. The free scanner starts at the top of the zone and searches
for suitable areas and consumes the free pages within making them
available for the migration scanner. The pages isolated for migration are
then migrated to the newly isolated free pages.

There is a race between shift_arg_pages and migration that triggers this
bug. A temporary stack is setup during exec and later moved. If
migration moves a page in the temporary stack and the VMA is then removed
before migration completes, the migration PTE may not be found leading to
a BUG when the stack is faulted.
This patch causes pages within the temporary stack during exec to be
skipped by migration. It does this by marking the VMA covering the
temporary stack with an otherwise impossible combination of VMA flags.
These flags are cleared when the temporary stack is moved to its final
location.
