* [PATCH] tty: update the tty layer to work with struct pidEric W. Biederman2007-02-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Of kernel subsystems that work with pids the tty layer is probably the largest consumer. But it has the nice virtue that the assiation with a session only lasts until the session leader exits. Which means that no reference counting is required. So using struct pid winds up being a simple optimization to avoid hash table lookups. In the long term the use of pid_nr also ensures that when we have multiple pid spaces mixed everything will work correctly. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [PATCH] proc: drop tasklist lock in task_state()Oleg Nesterov2006-10-021-6/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | task_state() needs tasklist_lock to protect ->parent/->real_parent. However task->parent points to nowhere only when the actions below happen in order 1) release_task(task) 2) release_task(task->parent) 3) a grace period passed But 3) implies that the memory ops from 1) should be finished, so pid_alive() can't be true in such a case. Otherwise, we don't care if ->parent/->real_parent changes under us. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Cc: "Eric W.

* [PATCH] proc: convert do_task_stat() to use lock_task_sighand()Oleg Nesterov2006-10-021-28/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Drop tasklist_lock. ->siglock protects almost all interesting data (including sub-threads traversal) except: ->signal->tty protected by tty_mutex ->real_parent the task can't be unhashed while we are holding ->siglock, so ->real_parent can change from under us but we can safely dereference it under rcu_read_lock() ->pgrp/->session we can get inconsistent numbers if the task does sys_setsid/daemonize at the same time. I hope this is acceptable. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Cc: "Eric W.

* [PATCH] mm: rss = file_rss + anon_rssHugh Dickins2005-10-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I was lazy when we added anon_rss, and chose to change as few places as possible. So currently each anonymous page has to be counted twice, in rss and in anon_rss. Which won't be so good if those are atomic counts in some configurations. Change that around: keep file_rss and anon_rss separately, and add them together (with get_mm_rss macro) when the total is needed - reading two atomics is much cheaper than updating two atomics. And update anon_rss upfront, typically in memory.c, not tucked away in page_add_anon_rmap.

* [PATCH] files: fix preemption issuesDipankar Sarma2005-09-171-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | With the new fdtable locking rules, you have to protect fdtable with either ->file_lock or rcu_read_lock/unlock(). There are some places where we aren't doing either.

* [PATCH] files: break up files structDipankar Sarma2005-09-091-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order for the RCU to work, the file table array, sets and their sizes must be updated atomically. Instead of ensuring this through too many memory barriers, we put the arrays and their sizes in a separate structure. This patch takes the first step of putting the file table elements in a separate structure fdtable that is embedded withing files_struct. It also changes all the users to refer to the file table using files_fdtable() macro. Subsequent applciation of RCU becomes easier after this.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-161-0/+484
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
