frv: fix mmap2 error handling

2008-12-02T03:55:24+00:00

Fix the error handling in sys_mmap2().  Currently, if the pgoff check
fails, fput() might have to be called (which it isn't), so do the pgoff
check first, before fget() is called.

container freezer: implement freezer cgroup subsystem

2008-10-20T15:52:34+00:00

This patch implements a new freezer subsystem in the control groups
framework.  It provides a way to stop and resume execution of all tasks in
a cgroup by writing in the cgroup filesystem.

The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a file named
freezer.state.  Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks
in the cgroup.  Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in
the cgroup.  Reading will return the current state.

* Examples of usage :

   # mkdir /containers/freezer
   # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer  /containers
   # mkdir /containers/0
   # echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks

to get status of the freezer subsystem :

   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   RUNNING

to freeze all tasks in the container :

   # echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   FREEZING
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   FROZEN

to unfreeze all tasks in the container :

   # echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   RUNNING

This is the basic mechanism which should do the right thing for user space
task in a simple scenario.

It's important to note that freezing can be incomplete.  In that case we
return EBUSY.  This means that some tasks in the cgroup are busy doing
something that prevents us from completely freezing the cgroup at this
time.  After EBUSY, the cgroup will remain partially frozen -- reflected
by freezer.state reporting "FREEZING" when read.  The state will remain
"FREEZING" until one of these things happens:

	1) Userspace cancels the freezing operation by writing "RUNNING" to
		the freezer.state file
	2) Userspace retries the freezing operation by writing "FROZEN" to
		the freezer.state file (writing "FREEZING" is not legal
		and returns EIO)
	3) The tasks that blocked the cgroup from entering the "FROZEN"
		state disappear from the cgroup's set of tasks.

FRV: Eliminate NULL test and memset after alloc_bootmem

2008-10-16T22:06:54+00:00

As noted by Akinobu Mita in patch b1fceac2b9e04d278316b2faddf276015fc06e3b,
alloc_bootmem and related functions never return NULL and always return a
zeroed region of memory.  Thus a NULL test or memset after calls to these
functions is unnecessary.

frv: use generic pci_enable_resources()

2008-10-16T22:06:54+00:00

Use the generic pci_enable_resources() instead of the arch-specific code.

Unlike this arch-specific code, the generic version:
    - checks PCI_NUM_RESOURCES (11), not 6, resources
    - skips resources that have neither IORESOURCE_IO nor IORESOURCE_MEM set
    - skips ROM resources unless IORESOURCE_ROM_ENABLE is set
    - checks for resource collisions with "!r->parent"

sysctl: simplify ->strategy

2008-10-16T18:21:47+00:00

name and nlen parameters passed to ->strategy hook are unused, remove
them.  In general ->strategy hook should know what it's doing, and don't
do something tricky for which, say, pointer to original userspace array
may be needed (name).

This also removes the following redundant information display:
