+Contents
+  1. Overview
+  2. Reserved area configuration
+  3. Example of mflash platform driver registration
+
+1. Overview
+
+Mflash and gflash are embedded flash drive. The only difference is mflash is
+MCP(Multi Chip Package) device. These two device operate exactly same way.
+So the rest mflash repersents mflash and gflash altogether.
+
+Internally, mflash has nand flash and other hardware logics and supports
+2 different operation (ATA, IO) modes. ATA mode doesn't need any new
+driver and currently works well under standard IDE subsystem. Actually it's
+one chip SSD. IO mode is ATA-like custom mode for the host that doesn't have
+IDE interface.
+
+Followings are brief descriptions about IO mode.
+A. IO mode based on ATA protocol and uses some custom command. (read confirm,
+write confirm)
+B. IO mode uses SRAM bus interface.
+C. IO mode supports 4kB boot area, so host can boot from mflash.
+
+2. Reserved area configuration
+If host boot from mflash, usually needs raw area for boot loader image. All of
+the mflash's block device operation will be taken this value as start offset.
+Note that boot loader's size of reserved area and kernel configuration value
+must be same.
+
+3. Example of mflash platform driver registration
+Working mflash is very straight forward. Adding platform device stuff to board
+configuration file is all. Here is some pseudo example.

+
+cpuacct controller uses percpu_counter interface to collect user and

+- It is theoretically possible to see wrong values for user and system times.
+  This is because percpu_counter_read() on 32bit systems isn't safe
+  against concurrent writes.
+- It is possible to see slightly outdated values for user and system times

+Kernel NFS Server Statistics
+============================
+
+This document describes the format and semantics of the statistics
+which the kernel NFS server makes available to userspace.  These
+statistics are available in several text form pseudo files, each of
+which is described separately below.
+
+In most cases you don't need to know these formats, as the nfsstat(8)
+program from the nfs-utils distribution provides a helpful command-line
+interface for extracting and printing them.
+
+All the files described here are formatted as a sequence of text lines,
+separated by newline '\n' characters.  Lines beginning with a hash
+'#' character are comments intended for humans and should be ignored
+by parsing routines.  All other lines contain a sequence of fields
+separated by whitespace.
+
+/proc/fs/nfsd/pool_stats
+------------------------
+
+This file is available in kernels from 2.6.30 onwards, if the
+/proc/fs/nfsd filesystem is mounted (it almost always should be).
+
+The first line is a comment which describes the fields present in
+all the other lines.  The other lines present the following data as
+a sequence of unsigned decimal numeric fields.  One line is shown
+for each NFS thread pool.
+
+All counters are 64 bits wide and wrap naturally.  There is no way
+to zero these counters, instead applications should do their own
+rate conversion.
+
+pool
+	The id number of the NFS thread pool to which this line applies.
+	This number does not change.
+
+	Thread pool ids are a contiguous set of small integers starting
+	at zero.  The maximum value depends on the thread pool mode, but
+	currently cannot be larger than the number of CPUs in the system.
+	Note that in the default case there will be a single thread pool
+	which contains all the nfsd threads and all the CPUs in the system,
+	and thus this file will have a single line with a pool id of "0".
+
+packets-arrived
+	Counts how many NFS packets have arrived.  More precisely, this
+	is the number of times that the network stack has notified the
+	sunrpc server layer that new data may be available on a transport
+	(e.g. an NFS or UDP socket or an NFS/RDMA endpoint).
+
+	Depending on the NFS workload patterns and various network stack
+	effects (such as Large Receive Offload) which can combine packets
+	on the wire, this may be either more or less than the number
+	of NFS calls received (which statistic is available elsewhere).
+	However this is a more accurate and less workload-dependent measure
+	of how much CPU load is being placed on the sunrpc server layer
+	due to NFS network traffic.
+
+sockets-enqueued
+	Counts how many times an NFS transport is enqueued to wait for
+	an nfsd thread to service it, i.e. no nfsd thread was considered
+	available.
+
+	The circumstance this statistic tracks indicates that there was NFS
+	network-facing work to be done but it couldn't be done immediately,
+	thus introducing a small delay in servicing NFS calls.  The ideal
+	rate of change for this counter is zero; significantly non-zero
+	values may indicate a performance limitation.
+
+	This can happen either because there are too few nfsd threads in the
+	thread pool for the NFS workload (the workload is thread-limited),
+	or because the NFS workload needs more CPU time than is available in
+	the thread pool (the workload is CPU-limited).  In the former case,
+	configuring more nfsd threads will probably improve the performance
+	of the NFS workload.  In the latter case, the sunrpc server layer is
+	already choosing not to wake idle nfsd threads because there are too
+	many nfsd threads which want to run but cannot, so configuring more
+	nfsd threads will make no difference whatsoever.  The overloads-avoided
+	statistic (see below) can be used to distinguish these cases.
+
+threads-woken
+	Counts how many times an idle nfsd thread is woken to try to
+	receive some data from an NFS transport.
+
+	This statistic tracks the circumstance where incoming
+	network-facing NFS work is being handled quickly, which is a good
+	thing.  The ideal rate of change for this counter will be close
+	to but less than the rate of change of the packets-arrived counter.
+
+overloads-avoided
+	Counts how many times the sunrpc server layer chose not to wake an
+	nfsd thread, despite the presence of idle nfsd threads, because
+	too many nfsd threads had been recently woken but could not get
+	enough CPU time to actually run.
+
+	This statistic counts a circumstance where the sunrpc layer
+	heuristically avoids overloading the CPU scheduler with too many
+	runnable nfsd threads.  The ideal rate of change for this counter
+	is zero.  Significant non-zero values indicate that the workload
+	is CPU limited.  Usually this is associated with heavy CPU usage
+	on all the CPUs in the nfsd thread pool.
+
+	If a sustained large overloads-avoided rate is detected on a pool,
+	the top(1) utility should be used to check for the following
+	pattern of CPU usage on all the CPUs associated with the given
+	nfsd thread pool.
+
+	 - %us ~= 0 (as you're *NOT* running applications on your NFS server)
+
+	 - %wa ~= 0
+
+	 - %id ~= 0
+
+	 - %sy + %hi + %si ~= 100
+
+	If this pattern is seen, configuring more nfsd threads will *not*
+	improve the performance of the workload.  If this patten is not
+	seen, then something more subtle is wrong.
+
+threads-timedout
+	Counts how many times an nfsd thread triggered an idle timeout,
+	i.e. was not woken to handle any incoming network packets for
+	some time.
+
+	This statistic counts a circumstance where there are more nfsd
+	threads configured than can be used by the NFS workload.  This is
+	a clue that the number of nfsd threads can be reduced without
+	affecting performance.  Unfortunately, it's only a clue and not
+	a strong indication, for a couple of reasons:
+
+	 - Currently the rate at which the counter is incremented is quite
+	   slow; the idle timeout is 60 minutes.  Unless the NFS workload
+	   remains constant for hours at a time, this counter is unlikely
+	   to be providing information that is still useful.
+
+	 - It is usually a wise policy to provide some slack,
+	   i.e. configure a few more nfsds than are currently needed,
+	   to allow for future spikes in load.
+
+
+Note that incoming packets on NFS transports will be dealt with in
+one of three ways.  An nfsd thread can be woken (threads-woken counts
+this case), or the transport can be enqueued for later attention
+(sockets-enqueued counts this case), or the packet can be temporarily
+deferred because the transport is currently being used by an nfsd
+thread.  This last case is not very interesting and is not explicitly
+counted, but can be inferred from the other counters thus:
+
+packets-deferred = packets-arrived - ( sockets-enqueued + threads-woken )
+
+
+More
+----
+Descriptions of the other statistics file should go here.

+NFSv4.1 Server Implementation
+
+Server support for minorversion 1 can be controlled using the
+/proc/fs/nfsd/versions control file.  The string output returned
+by reading this file will contain either "+4.1" or "-4.1"
+correspondingly.
+
+Currently, server support for minorversion 1 is disabled by default.
+It can be enabled at run time by writing the string "+4.1" to
+the /proc/fs/nfsd/versions control file.  Note that to write this
+control file, the nfsd service must be taken down.  Use your user-mode
+nfs-utils to set this up; see rpc.nfsd(8)
+
+The NFSv4 minorversion 1 (NFSv4.1) implementation in nfsd is based
+on the latest NFSv4.1 Internet Draft:
+http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-nfsv4-minorversion1-29
+
+From the many new features in NFSv4.1 the current implementation
+focuses on the mandatory-to-implement NFSv4.1 Sessions, providing
+"exactly once" semantics and better control and throttling of the
+resources allocated for each client.
+
+Other NFSv4.1 features, Parallel NFS operations in particular,
+are still under development out of tree.
+See http://wiki.linux-nfs.org/wiki/index.php/PNFS_prototype_design
+for more information.
+
+The table below, taken from the NFSv4.1 document, lists
+the operations that are mandatory to implement (REQ), optional
+(OPT), and NFSv4.0 operations that are required not to implement (MNI)
+in minor version 1.  The first column indicates the operations that
+are not supported yet by the linux server implementation.
+
+The OPTIONAL features identified and their abbreviations are as follows:
+	pNFS	Parallel NFS
+	FDELG	File Delegations
+	DDELG	Directory Delegations
+
+The following abbreviations indicate the linux server implementation status.
+	I	Implemented NFSv4.1 operations.
+	NS	Not Supported.
+	NS*	unimplemented optional feature.
+	P	pNFS features implemented out of tree.
+	PNS	pNFS features that are not supported yet (out of tree).

+NILFS2
+------
+
+NILFS2 is a log-structured file system (LFS) supporting continuous
+snapshotting.  In addition to versioning capability of the entire file
+system, users can even restore files mistakenly overwritten or
+destroyed just a few seconds ago.  Since NILFS2 can keep consistency
+like conventional LFS, it achieves quick recovery after system
+crashes.
+
+NILFS2 creates a number of checkpoints every few seconds or per
+synchronous write basis (unless there is no change).  Users can select
+significant versions among continuously created checkpoints, and can
+change them into snapshots which will be preserved until they are
+changed back to checkpoints.
+
+There is no limit on the number of snapshots until the volume gets
+full.  Each snapshot is mountable as a read-only file system
+concurrently with its writable mount, and this feature is convenient
+for online backup.
+
+The userland tools are included in nilfs-utils package, which is
+available from the following download page.  At least "mkfs.nilfs2",
+"mount.nilfs2", "umount.nilfs2", and "nilfs_cleanerd" (so called
+cleaner or garbage collector) are required.  Details on the tools are
+described in the man pages included in the package.

+Features which NILFS2 does not support yet:
+
+	- atime
+	- extended attributes
+	- POSIX ACLs
+	- quotas
+	- writable snapshots
+	- remote backup (CDP)
+	- data integrity
+	- defragmentation
+
+Mount options
+=============
+
+NILFS2 supports the following mount options:
+(*) == default
+
+barrier=on(*)		This enables/disables barriers. barrier=off disables
+			it, barrier=on enables it.
+errors=continue(*)	Keep going on a filesystem error.
+errors=remount-ro	Remount the filesystem read-only on an error.
+errors=panic		Panic and halt the machine if an error occurs.
+cp=n			Specify the checkpoint-number of the snapshot to be
+			mounted.  Checkpoints and snapshots are listed by lscp
+			user command.  Only the checkpoints marked as snapshot
+			are mountable with this option.  Snapshot is read-only,
+			so a read-only mount option must be specified together.
+order=relaxed(*)	Apply relaxed order semantics that allows modified data
+			blocks to be written to disk without making a
+			checkpoint if no metadata update is going.  This mode
+			is equivalent to the ordered data mode of the ext3
+			filesystem except for the updates on data blocks still
+			conserve atomicity.  This will improve synchronous
+			write performance for overwriting.
+order=strict		Apply strict in-order semantics that preserves sequence
+			of all file operations including overwriting of data
+			blocks.  That means, it is guaranteed that no
+			overtaking of events occurs in the recovered file
+			system after a crash.
+
+NILFS2 usage
+============
+
+To use nilfs2 as a local file system, simply:
+
+ # mkfs -t nilfs2 /dev/block_device
+ # mount -t nilfs2 /dev/block_device /dir
+
+This will also invoke the cleaner through the mount helper program
+(mount.nilfs2).
+
+Checkpoints and snapshots are managed by the following commands.
+Their manpages are included in the nilfs-utils package above.
+
+  lscp     list checkpoints or snapshots.
+  mkcp     make a checkpoint or a snapshot.
+  chcp     change an existing checkpoint to a snapshot or vice versa.
+  rmcp     invalidate specified checkpoint(s).
+
+To mount a snapshot,
+
+ # mount -t nilfs2 -r -o cp=<cno> /dev/block_device /snap_dir
+
+where <cno> is the checkpoint number of the snapshot.
+
+To unmount the NILFS2 mount point or snapshot, simply:
+
+ # umount /dir
+
+Then, the cleaner daemon is automatically shut down by the umount
+helper program (umount.nilfs2).
+
+Disk format
+===========
+
+A nilfs2 volume is equally divided into a number of segments except
+for the super block (SB) and segment #0.  A segment is the container
+of logs.  Each log is composed of summary information blocks, payload
+blocks, and an optional super root block (SR):
+
+   ______________________________________________________
+  | |SB| | Segment | Segment | Segment | ... | Segment | |
+  |_|__|_|____0____|____1____|____2____|_____|____N____|_|
+  0 +1K +4K       +8M       +16M      +24M  +(8MB x N)
+       .             .            (Typical offsets for 4KB-block)
+    .                  .
+  .______________________.
+  | log | log |... | log |
+  |__1__|__2__|____|__m__|
+        .       .
+      .               .
+    .                       .
+  .______________________________.
+  | Summary | Payload blocks  |SR|
+  |_blocks__|_________________|__|
+
+The payload blocks are organized per file, and each file consists of
+data blocks and B-tree node blocks:
+
+    |<---       File-A        --->|<---       File-B        --->|
+   _______________________________________________________________
+    | Data blocks | B-tree blocks | Data blocks | B-tree blocks | ...
+   _|_____________|_______________|_____________|_______________|_
+
+
+Since only the modified blocks are written in the log, it may have
+files without data blocks or B-tree node blocks.
+
+The organization of the blocks is recorded in the summary information
+blocks, which contains a header structure (nilfs_segment_summary), per
+file structures (nilfs_finfo), and per block structures (nilfs_binfo):
+
+  _________________________________________________________________________
+ | Summary | finfo | binfo | ... | binfo | finfo | binfo | ... | binfo |...
+ |_blocks__|___A___|_(A,1)_|_____|(A,Na)_|___B___|_(B,1)_|_____|(B,Nb)_|___
+
+
+The logs include regular files, directory files, symbolic link files
+and several meta data files.  The mata data files are the files used
+to maintain file system meta data.  The current version of NILFS2 uses
+the following meta data files:
+
+ 1) Inode file (ifile)             -- Stores on-disk inodes
+ 2) Checkpoint file (cpfile)       -- Stores checkpoints
+ 3) Segment usage file (sufile)    -- Stores allocation state of segments
+ 4) Data address translation file  -- Maps virtual block numbers to usual
+    (DAT)                             block numbers.  This file serves to
+                                      make on-disk blocks relocatable.
+
+The following figure shows a typical organization of the logs:
+
+  _________________________________________________________________________
+ | Summary | regular file | file  | ... | ifile | cpfile | sufile | DAT |SR|
+ |_blocks__|_or_directory_|_______|_____|_______|________|________|_____|__|
+
+
+To stride over segment boundaries, this sequence of files may be split
+into multiple logs.  The sequence of logs that should be treated as
+logically one log, is delimited with flags marked in the segment
+summary.  The recovery code of nilfs2 looks this boundary information
+to ensure atomicity of updates.
+
+The super root block is inserted for every checkpoints.  It includes
+three special inodes, inodes for the DAT, cpfile, and sufile.  Inodes
+of regular files, directories, symlinks and other special files, are
+included in the ifile.  The inode of ifile itself is included in the
+corresponding checkpoint entry in the cpfile.  Thus, the hierarchy
+among NILFS2 files can be depicted as follows:
+
+  Super block (SB)
+       |
+       v
+  Super root block (the latest cno=xx)
+       |-- DAT

+Kernel driver g760a
+===================
+
+Supported chips:
+  * Global Mixed-mode Technology Inc. G760A
+    Prefix: 'g760a'
+    Datasheet: Publicly available at the GMT website
+      http://www.gmt.com.tw/datasheet/g760a.pdf
+
+Author: Herbert Valerio Riedel <hvr@gnu.org>
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+The GMT G760A Fan Speed PWM Controller is connected directly to a fan
+and performs closed-loop control of the fan speed.
+
+The fan speed is programmed by setting the period via 'pwm1' of two
+consecutive speed pulses. The period is defined in terms of clock
+cycle counts of an assumed 32kHz clock source.
+
+Setting a period of 0 stops the fan; setting the period to 255 sets
+fan to maximum speed.
+
+The measured fan rotation speed returned via 'fan1_input' is derived
+from the measured speed pulse period by assuming again a 32kHz clock
+source and a 2 pulse-per-revolution fan.
+
+The 'alarms' file provides access to the two alarm bits provided by
+the G760A chip's status register: Bit 0 is set when the actual fan
+speed differs more than 20% with respect to the programmed fan speed;
+bit 1 is set when fan speed is below 1920 RPM.
+
+The g760a driver will not update its values more frequently than every
+other second; reading them more often will do no harm, but will return
+'old' values.

+Datagram vs Connected modes
+
+  The IPoIB driver supports two modes of operation: datagram and
+  connected.  The mode is set and read through an interface's
+  /sys/class/net/<intf name>/mode file.
+
+  In datagram mode, the IB UD (Unreliable Datagram) transport is used
+  and so the interface MTU has is equal to the IB L2 MTU minus the
+  IPoIB encapsulation header (4 bytes).  For example, in a typical IB
+  fabric with a 2K MTU, the IPoIB MTU will be 2048 - 4 = 2044 bytes.
+
+  In connected mode, the IB RC (Reliable Connected) transport is used.
+  Connected mode is to takes advantage of the connected nature of the
+  IB transport and allows an MTU up to the maximal IP packet size of
+  64K, which reduces the number of IP packets needed for handling
+  large UDP datagrams, TCP segments, etc and increases the performance
+  for large messages.
+
+  In connected mode, the interface's UD QP is still used for multicast
+  and communication with peers that don't support connected mode. In
+  this case, RX emulation of ICMP PMTU packets is used to cause the
+  networking stack to use the smaller UD MTU for these neighbours.
+
+Stateless offloads
+
+  If the IB HW supports IPoIB stateless offloads, IPoIB advertises
+  TCP/IP checksum and/or Large Send (LSO) offloading capability to the
+  network stack.
+
+  Large Receive (LRO) offloading is also implemented and may be turned
+  on/off using ethtool calls.  Currently LRO is supported only for
+  checksum offload capable devices.
+
+  Stateless offloads are supported only in datagram mode.  
+
+Interrupt moderation
+
+  If the underlying IB device supports CQ event moderation, one can
+  use ethtool to set interrupt mitigation parameters and thus reduce
+  the overhead incurred by handling interrupts.  The main code path of
+  IPoIB doesn't use events for TX completion signaling so only RX
+  moderation is supported.

+rotary-encoder - a generic driver for GPIO connected devices
+Daniel Mack <daniel@caiaq.de>, Feb 2009
+
+0. Function
+-----------
+
+Rotary encoders are devices which are connected to the CPU or other
+peripherals with two wires. The outputs are phase-shifted by 90 degrees
+and by triggering on falling and rising edges, the turn direction can
+be determined.
+
+The phase diagram of these two outputs look like this:
+
+                  _____       _____       _____
+                 |     |     |     |     |     |

+
+
+1. Events / state machine
+-------------------------
+
+a) Rising edge on channel A, channel B in low state
+	This state is used to recognize a clockwise turn
+
+b) Rising edge on channel B, channel A in high state
+	When entering this state, the encoder is put into 'armed' state,
+	meaning that there it has seen half the way of a one-step transition.
+
+c) Falling edge on channel A, channel B in high state
+	This state is used to recognize a counter-clockwise turn
+
+d) Falling edge on channel B, channel A in low state
+	Parking position. If the encoder enters this state, a full transition
+	should have happend, unless it flipped back on half the way. The
+	'armed' state tells us about that.
+
+2. Platform requirements
+------------------------
+
+As there is no hardware dependent call in this driver, the platform it is
+used with must support gpiolib. Another requirement is that IRQs must be
+able to fire on both edges.
+
+
+3. Board integration
+--------------------
+
+To use this driver in your system, register a platform_device with the
+name 'rotary-encoder' and associate the IRQs and some specific platform
+data with it.
+
+struct rotary_encoder_platform_data is declared in
+include/linux/rotary-encoder.h and needs to be filled with the number of
+steps the encoder has and can carry information about externally inverted
+signals (because of used invertig buffer or other reasons).
+
+Because GPIO to IRQ mapping is platform specific, this information must
+be given in seperately to the driver. See the example below.

 2.1. Modules
      -------
-     To get the device working, you have to load the proper kernel module. You
-     can do this using
-         modprobe modulename
-     where modulename is ser_gigaset (M101), usb_gigaset (M105), or
-     bas_gigaset (direct USB connection to the base).

+     can also be triggered manually using the modprobe(8) command, for example
+     for troubleshooting or to pass module parameters.
 
      The module ser_gigaset provides a serial line discipline N_GIGASET_M101
-     which drives the device through the regular serial line driver. To use it,
-     run the Gigaset M101 daemon "gigasetm101d" (also available from
-     http://sourceforge.net/projects/gigaset307x/) with the device file of the
-     RS232 port to the M101 as an argument, for example:
-	 gigasetm101d /dev/ttyS1
-     This will open the device file, set its line discipline to N_GIGASET_M101,
-     and then sleep in the background, keeping the device open so that the

-     example with

+	header-y specify header files to be exported.
+
+		Example:

+			header-y += usb/
+			header-y += aio_abi.h
+
+	The convention is to list one file per line and

+ASoC jack detection
+===================
+
+ALSA has a standard API for representing physical jacks to user space,
+the kernel side of which can be seen in include/sound/jack.h.  ASoC
+provides a version of this API adding two additional features:
+
+ - It allows more than one jack detection method to work together on one
+   user visible jack.  In embedded systems it is common for multiple
+   to be present on a single jack but handled by separate bits of
+   hardware.
+
+ - Integration with DAPM, allowing DAPM endpoints to be updated
+   automatically based on the detected jack status (eg, turning off the
+   headphone outputs if no headphones are present).
+
+This is done by splitting the jacks up into three things working
+together: the jack itself represented by a struct snd_soc_jack, sets of
+snd_soc_jack_pins representing DAPM endpoints to update and blocks of
+code providing jack reporting mechanisms.
+
+For example, a system may have a stereo headset jack with two reporting
+mechanisms, one for the headphone and one for the microphone.  Some
+systems won't be able to use their speaker output while a headphone is
+connected and so will want to make sure to update both speaker and
+headphone when the headphone jack status changes.
+
+The jack - struct snd_soc_jack
+==============================
+
+This represents a physical jack on the system and is what is visible to
+user space.  The jack itself is completely passive, it is set up by the
+machine driver and updated by jack detection methods.
+
+Jacks are created by the machine driver calling snd_soc_jack_new().
+
+snd_soc_jack_pin
+================
+
+These represent a DAPM pin to update depending on some of the status
+bits supported by the jack.  Each snd_soc_jack has zero or more of these
+which are updated automatically.  They are created by the machine driver
+and associated with the jack using snd_soc_jack_add_pins().  The status
+of the endpoint may configured to be the opposite of the jack status if
+required (eg, enabling a built in microphone if a microphone is not
+connected via a jack).
+
+Jack detection methods
+======================
+
+Actual jack detection is done by code which is able to monitor some
+input to the system and update a jack by calling snd_soc_jack_report(),
+specifying a subset of bits to update.  The jack detection code should
+be set up by the machine driver, taking configuration for the jack to
+update and the set of things to report when the jack is connected.
+
+Often this is done based on the status of a GPIO - a handler for this is
+provided by the snd_soc_jack_add_gpio() function.  Other methods are
+also available, for example integrated into CODECs.  One example of
+CODEC integrated jack detection can be see in the WM8350 driver.
+
+Each jack may have multiple reporting mechanisms, though it will need at
+least one to be useful.
+
+Machine drivers
+===============
+
+These are all hooked together by the machine driver depending on the
+system hardware.  The machine driver will set up the snd_soc_jack and
+the list of pins to update then set up one or more jack detection
+mechanisms to update that jack based on their current status.

+--- What is TOMOYO? ---
+
+TOMOYO is a name-based MAC extension (LSM module) for the Linux kernel.
+
+LiveCD-based tutorials are available at
+http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/en/1.6.x/1st-step/ubuntu8.04-live/
+http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/en/1.6.x/1st-step/centos5-live/ .
+Though these tutorials use non-LSM version of TOMOYO, they are useful for you
+to know what TOMOYO is.
+
+--- How to enable TOMOYO? ---
+
+Build the kernel with CONFIG_SECURITY_TOMOYO=y and pass "security=tomoyo" on
+kernel's command line.
+
+Please see http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/en/2.2.x/ for details.
+
+--- Where is documentation? ---
+
+User <-> Kernel interface documentation is available at
+http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/en/2.2.x/policy-reference.html .
+
+Materials we prepared for seminars and symposiums are available at
+http://sourceforge.jp/projects/tomoyo/docs/?category_id=532&language_id=1 .
+Below lists are chosen from three aspects.
+
+What is TOMOYO?

+
+History of TOMOYO?
+  Realities of Mainlining
+    http://sourceforge.jp/projects/tomoyo/docs/lfj2008.pdf
+
+--- What is future plan? ---
+
+We believe that inode based security and name based security are complementary
+and both should be used together. But unfortunately, so far, we cannot enable
+multiple LSM modules at the same time. We feel sorry that you have to give up
+SELinux/SMACK/AppArmor etc. when you want to use TOMOYO.
+
+We hope that LSM becomes stackable in future. Meanwhile, you can use non-LSM
+version of TOMOYO, available at http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/en/1.6.x/ .
+LSM version of TOMOYO is a subset of non-LSM version of TOMOYO. We are planning
+to port non-LSM version's functionalities to LSM versions.

+Constraints
+-----------
+  a) Image size for YUV422P format
+     All YUV422P images are enforced to have width x height % 16 = 0.
+     This is due to DMA constraints, which transfers only planes of 8 byte
+     multiples.
+
+
+Global video workflow
+---------------------
+  a) QCI stopped
+     Initialy, the QCI interface is stopped.
+     When a buffer is queued (pxa_videobuf_ops->buf_queue), the QCI starts.
+
+  b) QCI started
+     More buffers can be queued while the QCI is started without halting the
+     capture.  The new buffers are "appended" at the tail of the DMA chain, and
+     smoothly captured one frame after the other.
+
+     Once a buffer is filled in the QCI interface, it is marked as "DONE" and
+     removed from the active buffers list. It can be then requeud or dequeued by
+     userland application.
+
+     Once the last buffer is filled in, the QCI interface stops.
+
+
+DMA usage
+---------
+  a) DMA flow
+     - first buffer queued for capture
+       Once a first buffer is queued for capture, the QCI is started, but data
+       transfer is not started. On "End Of Frame" interrupt, the irq handler
+       starts the DMA chain.
+     - capture of one videobuffer
+       The DMA chain starts transfering data into videobuffer RAM pages.
+       When all pages are transfered, the DMA irq is raised on "ENDINTR" status
+     - finishing one videobuffer
+       The DMA irq handler marks the videobuffer as "done", and removes it from
+       the active running queue
+       Meanwhile, the next videobuffer (if there is one), is transfered by DMA
+     - finishing the last videobuffer
+       On the DMA irq of the last videobuffer, the QCI is stopped.
+
+  b) DMA prepared buffer will have this structure
+
+     +------------+-----+---------------+-----------------+
+     | desc-sg[0] | ... | desc-sg[last] | finisher/linker |
+     +------------+-----+---------------+-----------------+
+
+     This structure is pointed by dma->sg_cpu.
+     The descriptors are used as follows :
+      - desc-sg[i]: i-th descriptor, transfering the i-th sg
+        element to the video buffer scatter gather
+      - finisher: has ddadr=DADDR_STOP, dcmd=ENDIRQEN
+      - linker: has ddadr= desc-sg[0] of next video buffer, dcmd=0
+
+     For the next schema, let's assume d0=desc-sg[0] .. dN=desc-sg[N],
+     "f" stands for finisher and "l" for linker.
+     A typical running chain is :
+
+         Videobuffer 1         Videobuffer 2
+     +---------+----+---+  +----+----+----+---+
+     | d0 | .. | dN | l |  | d0 | .. | dN | f |
+     +---------+----+-|-+  ^----+----+----+---+
+                      |    |
+                      +----+
+
+     After the chaining is finished, the chain looks like :
+
+         Videobuffer 1         Videobuffer 2         Videobuffer 3
+     +---------+----+---+  +----+----+----+---+  +----+----+----+---+
+     | d0 | .. | dN | l |  | d0 | .. | dN | l |  | d0 | .. | dN | f |
+     +---------+----+-|-+  ^----+----+----+-|-+  ^----+----+----+---+
+                      |    |                |    |
+                      +----+                +----+
+                                           new_link
+
+  c) DMA hot chaining timeslice issue
+
+     As DMA chaining is done while DMA _is_ running, the linking may be done
+     while the DMA jumps from one Videobuffer to another. On the schema, that
+     would be a problem if the following sequence is encountered :
+
+      - DMA chain is Videobuffer1 + Videobuffer2
+      - pxa_videobuf_queue() is called to queue Videobuffer3
+      - DMA controller finishes Videobuffer2, and DMA stops
+      =>
+         Videobuffer 1         Videobuffer 2
+     +---------+----+---+  +----+----+----+---+
+     | d0 | .. | dN | l |  | d0 | .. | dN | f |

+                      +----+                +-- DMA DDADR loads DDADR_STOP
+
+      - pxa_dma_add_tail_buf() is called, the Videobuffer2 "finisher" is
+        replaced by a "linker" to Videobuffer3 (creation of new_link)
+      - pxa_videobuf_queue() finishes
+      - the DMA irq handler is called, which terminates Videobuffer2
+      - Videobuffer3 capture is not scheduled on DMA chain (as it stopped !!!)
+
+         Videobuffer 1         Videobuffer 2         Videobuffer 3
+     +---------+----+---+  +----+----+----+---+  +----+----+----+---+

+                                           new_link
+                                          DMA DDADR still is DDADR_STOP
+
+      - pxa_camera_check_link_miss() is called
+        This checks if the DMA is finished and a buffer is still on the
+        pcdev->capture list. If that's the case, the capture will be restarted,
+        and Videobuffer3 is scheduled on DMA chain.
+      - the DMA irq handler finishes
+
+     Note: if DMA stops just after pxa_camera_check_link_miss() reads DDADR()
+     value, we have the guarantee that the DMA irq handler will be called back
+     when the DMA will finish the buffer, and pxa_camera_check_link_miss() will
+     be called again, to reschedule Videobuffer3.

+
+Basically, the new setup is:
+
+ - we have "real address spaces" and "anonymous address spaces". The
+   difference is that an anonymous address space doesn't care about the
+   user-level page tables at all, so when we do a context switch into an
+   anonymous address space we just leave the previous address space
+   active.
+
+   The obvious use for a "anonymous address space" is any thread that
+   doesn't need any user mappings - all kernel threads basically fall into
+   this category, but even "real" threads can temporarily say that for
+   some amount of time they are not going to be interested in user space,
+   and that the scheduler might as well try to avoid wasting time on
+   switching the VM state around. Currently only the old-style bdflush
+   sync does that.
+
+ - "tsk->mm" points to the "real address space". For an anonymous process,
+   tsk->mm will be NULL, for the logical reason that an anonymous process
+   really doesn't _have_ a real address space at all.
+
+ - however, we obviously need to keep track of which address space we
+   "stole" for such an anonymous user. For that, we have "tsk->active_mm",
+   which shows what the currently active address space is.
+
+   The rule is that for a process with a real address space (ie tsk->mm is
+   non-NULL) the active_mm obviously always has to be the same as the real
+   one.
+
+   For a anonymous process, tsk->mm == NULL, and tsk->active_mm is the
+   "borrowed" mm while the anonymous process is running. When the
+   anonymous process gets scheduled away, the borrowed address space is
+   returned and cleared.
+
+To support all that, the "struct mm_struct" now has two counters: a
+"mm_users" counter that is how many "real address space users" there are,
+and a "mm_count" counter that is the number of "lazy" users (ie anonymous
+users) plus one if there are any real users.
+
+Usually there is at least one real user, but it could be that the real
+user exited on another CPU while a lazy user was still active, so you do
+actually get cases where you have a address space that is _only_ used by
+lazy users. That is often a short-lived state, because once that thread
+gets scheduled away in favour of a real thread, the "zombie" mm gets
+released because "mm_users" becomes zero.
+
+Also, a new rule is that _nobody_ ever has "init_mm" as a real MM any
+more. "init_mm" should be considered just a "lazy context when no other
+context is available", and in fact it is mainly used just at bootup when
+no real VM has yet been created. So code that used to check
+
+	if (current->mm == &init_mm)
+
+should generally just do
+
+	if (!current->mm)
+
+instead (which makes more sense anyway - the test is basically one of "do
+we have a user context", and is generally done by the page fault handler
+and things like that).
+
+Anyway, I put a pre-patch-2.3.13-1 on ftp.kernel.org just a moment ago,
+because it slightly changes the interfaces to accomodate the alpha (who
+would have thought it, but the alpha actually ends up having one of the
+ugliest context switch codes - unlike the other architectures where the MM
+and register state is separate, the alpha PALcode joins the two, and you
+need to switch both together).

+THE UNEVICTABLE LRU
+===================
+
+The Unevictable LRU facility adds an additional LRU list to track unevictable
+pages and to hide these pages from vmscan.  This mechanism is based on a patch
+by Larry Woodman of Red Hat to address several scalability problems with page
 reclaim in Linux.  The problems have been observed at customer sites on large
-memory x86_64 systems.  For example, a non-numal x86_64 platform with 128GB
-of main memory will have over 32 million 4k pages in a single zone.  When a
-large fraction of these pages are not evictable for any reason [see below],
-vmscan will spend a lot of time scanning the LRU lists looking for the small
-fraction of pages that are evictable.  This can result in a situation where
-all cpus are spending 100% of their time in vmscan for hours or days on end,
-with the system completely unresponsive.
-
-The Unevictable LRU infrastructure addresses the following classes of
-unevictable pages:
-
-+ page owned by ramfs
-+ page mapped into SHM_LOCKed shared memory regions
-+ page mapped into VM_LOCKED [mlock()ed] vmas
-
-The infrastructure might be able to handle other conditions that make pages
+memory x86_64 systems.
+
+To illustrate this with an example, a non-NUMA x86_64 platform with 128GB of

+ (*) Those owned by ramfs.
+
+ (*) Those mapped into SHM_LOCK'd shared memory regions.

 unevictable, either by definition or by circumstance, in the future.
 
 
-The Unevictable LRU List
+THE UNEVICTABLE PAGE LIST
+-------------------------
 
 The Unevictable LRU infrastructure consists of an additional, per-zone, LRU list
 called the "unevictable" list and an associated page flag, PG_unevictable, to
-indicate that the page is being managed on the unevictable list.  The
-PG_unevictable flag is analogous to, and mutually exclusive with, the PG_active
-flag in that it indicates on which LRU list a page resides when PG_lru is set.
-The unevictable LRU list is source configurable based on the UNEVICTABLE_LRU
-Kconfig option.

+UNEVICTABLE_LRU Kconfig option.
 
 The Unevictable LRU infrastructure maintains unevictable pages on an additional
 LRU list for a few reasons:
 
-1) We get to "treat unevictable pages just like we treat other pages in the
-   system, which means we get to use the same code to manipulate them, the
-   same code to isolate them (for migrate, etc.), the same code to keep track
-   of the statistics, etc..." [Rik van Riel]

+     same code to isolate them (for migrate, etc.), the same code to keep track
+     of the statistics, etc..." [Rik van Riel]
+
+ (2) We want to be able to migrate unevictable pages between nodes for memory
+     defragmentation, workload management and memory hotplug.  The linux kernel
+     can only migrate pages that it can successfully isolate from the LRU
+     lists.  If we were to maintain pages elsewhere than on an LRU-like list,
+     where they can be found by isolate_lru_page(), we would prevent their
+     migration, unless we reworked migration code to find the unevictable pages
+     itself.

+MEMORY CONTROL GROUP INTERACTION
+--------------------------------
 
-Unevictable LRU and Memory Controller Interaction
+The unevictable LRU facility interacts with the memory control group [aka
+memory controller; see Documentation/cgroups/memory.txt] by extending the
+lru_list enum.
+
+The memory controller data structure automatically gets a per-zone unevictable
+list as a result of the "arrayification" of the per-zone LRU lists (one per
+lru_list enum element).  The memory controller tracks the movement of pages to
+and from the unevictable list.
 
-The memory controller data structure automatically gets a per zone unevictable
-lru list as a result of the "arrayification" of the per-zone LRU lists.  The
-memory controller tracks the movement of pages to and from the unevictable list.
 When a memory control group comes under memory pressure, the controller will
 not attempt to reclaim pages on the unevictable list.  This has a couple of
-effects.  Because the pages are "hidden" from reclaim on the unevictable list,
-the reclaim process can be more efficient, dealing only with pages that have
-a chance of being reclaimed.  On the other hand, if too many of the pages
-charged to the control group are unevictable, the evictable portion of the
-working set of the tasks in the control group may not fit into the available
-memory.  This can cause the control group to thrash or to oom-kill tasks.
-
-
-Unevictable LRU:  Detecting Unevictable Pages
-
-The function page_evictable(page, vma) in vmscan.c determines whether a
-page is evictable or not.  For ramfs pages and pages in SHM_LOCKed regions,
-page_evictable() tests a new address space flag, AS_UNEVICTABLE, in the page's
-address space using a wrapper function.  Wrapper functions are used to set,
-clear and test the flag to reduce the requirement for #ifdef's throughout the
-source code.  AS_UNEVICTABLE is set on ramfs inode/mapping when it is created.
-This flag remains for the life of the inode.
-
-For shared memory regions, AS_UNEVICTABLE is set when an application
-successfully SHM_LOCKs the region and is removed when the region is
-SHM_UNLOCKed.  Note that shmctl(SHM_LOCK, ...) does not populate the page
-tables for the region as does, for example, mlock().   So, we make no special
-effort to push any pages in the SHM_LOCKed region to the unevictable list.
-Vmscan will do this when/if it encounters the pages during reclaim.  On
-SHM_UNLOCK, shmctl() scans the pages in the region and "rescues" them from the
-unevictable list if no other condition keeps them unevictable.  If a SHM_LOCKed
-region is destroyed, the pages are also "rescued" from the unevictable list in
-the process of freeing them.
-
-page_evictable() detects mlock()ed pages by testing an additional page flag,
-PG_mlocked via the PageMlocked() wrapper.  If the page is NOT mlocked, and a
-non-NULL vma is supplied, page_evictable() will check whether the vma is

+
+ (1) Because the pages are "hidden" from reclaim on the unevictable list, the
+     reclaim process can be more efficient, dealing only with pages that have a
+     chance of being reclaimed.
+
+ (2) On the other hand, if too many of the pages charged to the control group

+     the control group may not fit into the available memory.  This can cause
+     the control group to thrash or to OOM-kill tasks.
+
+
+MARKING ADDRESS SPACES UNEVICTABLE
+----------------------------------
+
+For facilities such as ramfs none of the pages attached to the address space
+may be evicted.  To prevent eviction of any such pages, the AS_UNEVICTABLE
+address space flag is provided, and this can be manipulated by a filesystem
+using a number of wrapper functions:
+
+ (*) void mapping_set_unevictable(struct address_space *mapping);
+
+	Mark the address space as being completely unevictable.
+
+ (*) void mapping_clear_unevictable(struct address_space *mapping);
+
+	Mark the address space as being evictable.
+
+ (*) int mapping_unevictable(struct address_space *mapping);
+
+	Query the address space, and return true if it is completely
+	unevictable.
+
+These are currently used in two places in the kernel:
+
+ (1) By ramfs to mark the address spaces of its inodes when they are created,
+     and this mark remains for the life of the inode.
+
+ (2) By SYSV SHM to mark SHM_LOCK'd address spaces until SHM_UNLOCK is called.
+
+     Note that SHM_LOCK is not required to page in the locked pages if they're
+     swapped out; the application must touch the pages manually if it wants to
+     ensure they're in memory.
+
+
+DETECTING UNEVICTABLE PAGES
+---------------------------
+
+The function page_evictable() in vmscan.c determines whether a page is
+evictable or not using the query function outlined above [see section "Marking
+address spaces unevictable"] to check the AS_UNEVICTABLE flag.
+
+For address spaces that are so marked after being populated (as SHM regions
+might be), the lock action (eg: SHM_LOCK) can be lazy, and need not populate
+the page tables for the region as does, for example, mlock(), nor need it make
+any special effort to push any pages in the SHM_LOCK'd area to the unevictable
+list.  Instead, vmscan will do this if and when it encounters the pages during
+a reclamation scan.
+
+On an unlock action (such as SHM_UNLOCK), the unlocker (eg: shmctl()) must scan
+the pages in the region and "rescue" them from the unevictable list if no other
+condition is keeping them unevictable.  If an unevictable region is destroyed,
+the pages are also "rescued" from the unevictable list in the process of
+freeing them.
+
+page_evictable() also checks for mlocked pages by testing an additional page
+flag, PG_mlocked (as wrapped by PageMlocked()).  If the page is NOT mlocked,
+and a non-NULL VMA is supplied, page_evictable() will check whether the VMA is
 VM_LOCKED via is_mlocked_vma().  is_mlocked_vma() will SetPageMlocked() and
 update the appropriate statistics if the vma is VM_LOCKED.  This method allows
 efficient "culling" of pages in the fault path that are being faulted in to
-VM_LOCKED vmas.

-Unevictable Pages and Vmscan [shrink_*_list()]
+VMSCAN'S HANDLING OF UNEVICTABLE PAGES
+--------------------------------------
 
 If unevictable pages are culled in the fault path, or moved to the unevictable
-list at mlock() or mmap() time, vmscan will never encounter the pages until
-they have become evictable again, for example, via munlock() and have been
-"rescued" from the unevictable list.  However, there may be situations where we
-decide, for the sake of expediency, to leave a unevictable page on one of the
-regular active/inactive LRU lists for vmscan to deal with.  Vmscan checks for
-such pages in all of the shrink_{active|inactive|page}_list() functions and
-will "cull" such pages that it encounters--that is, it diverts those pages to
-the unevictable list for the zone being scanned.
-
-There may be situations where a page is mapped into a VM_LOCKED vma, but the
-page is not marked as PageMlocked.  Such pages will make it all the way to

-To "cull" an unevictable page, vmscan simply puts the page back on the lru
-list using putback_lru_page()--the inverse operation to isolate_lru_page()--
-after dropping the page lock.  Because the condition which makes the page
-unevictable may change once the page is unlocked, putback_lru_page() will
-recheck the unevictable state of a page that it places on the unevictable lru
-list.  If the page has become unevictable, putback_lru_page() removes it from

+MLOCKED PAGES
+=============
 
-The "Unevictable Mlocked Pages" infrastructure is based on work originally
+The unevictable page list is also useful for mlock(), in addition to ramfs and
+SYSV SHM.  Note that mlock() is only available in CONFIG_MMU=y situations; in
+NOMMU situations, all mappings are effectively mlocked.
+
+
+HISTORY
+-------
+
+The "Unevictable mlocked Pages" infrastructure is based on work originally
 posted by Nick Piggin in an RFC patch entitled "mm: mlocked pages off LRU".
-Nick posted his patch as an alternative to a patch posted by Christoph
-Lameter to achieve the same objective--hiding mlocked pages from vmscan.
-In Nick's patch, he used one of the struct page lru list link fields as a count
-of VM_LOCKED vmas that map the page.  This use of the link field for a count
-prevented the management of the pages on an LRU list.  Thus, mlocked pages were
-not migratable as isolate_lru_page() could not find them and the lru list link
-field was not available to the migration subsystem.  Nick resolved this by
-putting mlocked pages back on the lru list before attempting to isolate them,
-thus abandoning the count of VM_LOCKED vmas.  When Nick's patch was integrated
-with the Unevictable LRU work, the count was replaced by walking the reverse
-map to determine whether any VM_LOCKED vmas mapped the page.  More on this
-below.
-
-
-Mlocked Pages:  Basic Management
-
-Mlocked pages--pages mapped into a VM_LOCKED vma--represent one class of
-unevictable pages.  When such a page has been "noticed" by the memory
-management subsystem, the page is marked with the PG_mlocked [PageMlocked()]
-flag.  A PageMlocked() page will be placed on the unevictable LRU list when
-it is added to the LRU.   Pages can be "noticed" by memory management in
-several places:
-
-1) in the mlock()/mlockall() system call handlers.
-2) in the mmap() system call handler when mmap()ing a region with the
-   MAP_LOCKED flag, or mmap()ing a region in a task that has called
-   mlockall() with the MCL_FUTURE flag.  Both of these conditions result
-   in the VM_LOCKED flag being set for the vma.
-3) in the fault path, if mlocked pages are "culled" in the fault path,
-   and when a VM_LOCKED stack segment is expanded.
-4) as mentioned above, in vmscan:shrink_page_list() when attempting to
-   reclaim a page in a VM_LOCKED vma via try_to_unmap().
-
-Mlocked pages become unlocked and rescued from the unevictable list when:
-
-1) mapped in a range unlocked via the munlock()/munlockall() system calls.
-2) munmapped() out of the last VM_LOCKED vma that maps the page, including
-   unmapping at task exit.
-3) when the page is truncated from the last VM_LOCKED vma of an mmap()ed file.
-4) before a page is COWed in a VM_LOCKED vma.

+attempting to isolate them, thus abandoning the count of VM_LOCKED VMAs.  When
+Nick's patch was integrated with the Unevictable LRU work, the count was
+replaced by walking the reverse map to determine whether any VM_LOCKED VMAs
+mapped the page.  More on this below.
+
+
+BASIC MANAGEMENT
+----------------
+
+mlocked pages - pages mapped into a VM_LOCKED VMA - are a class of unevictable
+pages.  When such a page has been "noticed" by the memory management subsystem,
+the page is marked with the PG_mlocked flag.  This can be manipulated using the
+PageMlocked() functions.
+
+A PG_mlocked page will be placed on the unevictable list when it is added to
+the LRU.  Such pages can be "noticed" by memory management in several places:
+
+ (1) in the mlock()/mlockall() system call handlers;
+
+ (2) in the mmap() system call handler when mmapping a region with the
+     MAP_LOCKED flag;
+
+ (3) mmapping a region in a task that has called mlockall() with the MCL_FUTURE
+     flag
+
+ (4) in the fault path, if mlocked pages are "culled" in the fault path,
+     and when a VM_LOCKED stack segment is expanded; or
+
+ (5) as mentioned above, in vmscan:shrink_page_list() when attempting to
+     reclaim a page in a VM_LOCKED VMA via try_to_unmap()
+
+all of which result in the VM_LOCKED flag being set for the VMA if it doesn't
+already have it set.
+
+mlocked pages become unlocked and rescued from the unevictable list when:
+
+ (1) mapped in a range unlocked via the munlock()/munlockall() system calls;
+
+ (2) munmap()'d out of the last VM_LOCKED VMA that maps the page, including
+     unmapping at task exit;
+
+ (3) when the page is truncated from the last VM_LOCKED VMA of an mmapped file;
+     or
+
+ (4) before a page is COW'd in a VM_LOCKED VMA.
+
+
+mlock()/mlockall() SYSTEM CALL HANDLING
+---------------------------------------
 
 Both [do_]mlock() and [do_]mlockall() system call handlers call mlock_fixup()
-for each vma in the range specified by the call.  In the case of mlockall(),
+for each VMA in the range specified by the call.  In the case of mlockall(),
 this is the entire active address space of the task.  Note that mlock_fixup()
-is used for both mlock()ing and munlock()ing a range of memory.  A call to
-mlock() an already VM_LOCKED vma, or to munlock() a vma that is not VM_LOCKED
-is treated as a no-op--mlock_fixup() simply returns.
-
-If the vma passes some filtering described in "Mlocked Pages:  Filtering Vmas"
-below, mlock_fixup() will attempt to merge the vma with its neighbors or split
-off a subset of the vma if the range does not cover the entire vma.  Once the
-vma has been merged or split or neither, mlock_fixup() will call
-__mlock_vma_pages_range() to fault in the pages via get_user_pages() and
-to mark the pages as mlocked via mlock_vma_page().
-
-Note that the vma being mlocked might be mapped with PROT_NONE.  In this case,
-get_user_pages() will be unable to fault in the pages.  That's OK.  If pages

 fault path or in vmscan.
 
 Also note that a page returned by get_user_pages() could be truncated or
-migrated out from under us, while we're trying to mlock it.  To detect
-this, __mlock_vma_pages_range() tests the page_mapping after acquiring
-the page lock.  If the page is still associated with its mapping, we'll
-go ahead and call mlock_vma_page().  If the mapping is gone, we just

-account these vmas against the task's "locked_vm".
-
-Mlocked Pages:  Downgrading the Mmap Semaphore.
-
-mlock_fixup() must be called with the mmap semaphore held for write, because
-it may have to merge or split vmas.  However, mlocking a large region of
-memory can take a long time--especially if vmscan must reclaim pages to
-satisfy the regions requirements.  Faulting in a large region with the mmap
-semaphore held for write can hold off other faults on the address space, in
-the case of a multi-threaded task.  It can also hold off scans of the task's
-address space via /proc.  While testing under heavy load, it was observed that
-the ps(1) command could be held off for many minutes while a large segment was
-mlock()ed down.
-
-To address this issue, and to make the system more responsive during mlock()ing
-of large segments, mlock_fixup() downgrades the mmap semaphore to read mode
-during the call to __mlock_vma_pages_range().  This works fine.  However, the
-callers of mlock_fixup() expect the semaphore to be returned in write mode.
-So, mlock_fixup() "upgrades" the semphore to write mode.  Linux does not
-support an atomic upgrade_sem() call, so mlock_fixup() must drop the semaphore
-and reacquire it in write mode.  In a multi-threaded task, it is possible for
-the task memory map to change while the semaphore is dropped.  Therefore,
-mlock_fixup() looks up the vma at the range start address after reacquiring
-the semaphore in write mode and verifies that it still covers the original
-range.  If not, mlock_fixup() returns an error [-EAGAIN].  All callers of
-mlock_fixup() have been changed to deal with this new error condition.
-
-Note:  when munlocking a region, all of the pages should already be resident--
-unless we have racing threads mlocking() and munlocking() regions.  So,
-unlocking should not have to wait for page allocations nor faults  of any kind.
-Therefore mlock_fixup() does not downgrade the semaphore for munlock().
-
-
-Mlocked Pages:  munlock()/munlockall() System Call Handling
-
-The munlock() and munlockall() system calls are handled by the same functions--
-do_mlock[all]()--as the mlock() and mlockall() system calls with the unlock
-vs lock operation indicated by an argument.  So, these system calls are also
-handled by mlock_fixup().  Again, if called for an already munlock()ed vma,
-mlock_fixup() simply returns.  Because of the vma filtering discussed above,
-VM_LOCKED will not be set in any "special" vmas.  So, these vmas will be

-	try_to_unmap_file() -- non-linear mappings
-
-If a page's mapping contains a non-empty non-linear mapping vma list, then
-try_to_un{map|lock}() must also visit each vma in that list to determine
-whether the page is mapped in a VM_LOCKED vma.  Again, the scan must visit
-all vmas in the non-linear list to ensure that the pages is not/should not be

-However, there is no easy way to determine whether the page is actually mapped
-in a given vma--either for unmapping or testing whether the VM_LOCKED vma
-actually pins the page.
-
-So, try_to_unmap_file() handles non-linear mappings by scanning a certain
-number of pages--a "cluster"--in each non-linear vma associated with the page's
-mapping, for each file mapped page that vmscan tries to unmap.  If this happens
-to unmap the page we're trying to unmap, try_to_unmap() will notice this on
-return--(page_mapcount(page) == 0)--and return SWAP_SUCCESS.  Otherwise, it
-will return SWAP_AGAIN, causing vmscan to recirculate this page.  We take
-advantage of the cluster scan in try_to_unmap_cluster() as follows:
-
-For each non-linear vma, try_to_unmap_cluster() attempts to acquire the mmap
-semaphore of the associated mm_struct for read without blocking.  If this
-attempt is successful and the vma is VM_LOCKED, try_to_unmap_cluster() will
-retain the mmap semaphore for the scan; otherwise it drops it here.  Then,
-for each page in the cluster, if we're holding the mmap semaphore for a locked
-vma, try_to_unmap_cluster() calls mlock_vma_page() to mlock the page.  This
-call is a no-op if the page is already locked, but will mlock any pages in
-the non-linear mapping that happen to be unlocked.  If one of the pages so
-mlocked is the page passed in to try_to_unmap(), try_to_unmap_cluster() will
-return SWAP_MLOCK, rather than the default SWAP_AGAIN.  This will allow vmscan
-to cull the page, rather than recirculating it on the inactive list.  Again,
-if try_to_unmap_cluster() cannot acquire the vma's mmap sem, it returns

+
+ (*) try_to_unmap_anon()
+
+     To unmap anonymous pages, each VMA in the list anchored in the anon_vma
+     must be visited - at least until a VM_LOCKED VMA is encountered.  If the
+     page is being unmapped for migration, VM_LOCKED VMAs do not stop the
+     process because mlocked pages are migratable.  However, for reclaim, if
+     the page is mapped into a VM_LOCKED VMA, the scan stops.
+
+     try_to_unmap_anon() attempts to acquire in read mode the mmap semphore of
+     the mm_struct to which the VMA belongs.  If this is successful, it will
+     mlock the page via mlock_vma_page() - we wouldn't have gotten to
+     try_to_unmap_anon() if the page were already mlocked - and will return
+     SWAP_MLOCK, indicating that the page is unevictable.
+
+     If the mmap semaphore cannot be acquired, we are not sure whether the page
+     is really unevictable or not.  In this case, try_to_unmap_anon() will
+     return SWAP_AGAIN.
+

+
+     Unmapping of a mapped file page works the same as for anonymous mappings,

+
+     If a page's mapping contains a non-empty non-linear mapping VMA list, then

+
+try_to_munlock() REVERSE MAP SCAN
+---------------------------------
+
+ [!] TODO/FIXME: a better name might be page_mlocked() - analogous to the
+     page_referenced() reverse map walker.
+
+When munlock_vma_page() [see section "munlock()/munlockall() System Call
+Handling" above] tries to munlock a page, it needs to determine whether or not
+the page is mapped by any VM_LOCKED VMA without actually attempting to unmap
+all PTEs from the page.  For this purpose, the unevictable/mlock infrastructure
+introduced a variant of try_to_unmap() called try_to_munlock().
 
 try_to_munlock() calls the same functions as try_to_unmap() for anonymous and
 mapped file pages with an additional argument specifing unlock versus unmap
 processing.  Again, these functions walk the respective reverse maps looking
-for VM_LOCKED vmas.  When such a vma is found for anonymous pages and file
+for VM_LOCKED VMAs.  When such a VMA is found for anonymous pages and file
 pages mapped in linear VMAs, as in the try_to_unmap() case, the functions
 attempt to acquire the associated mmap semphore, mlock the page via
 mlock_vma_page() and return SWAP_MLOCK.  This effectively undoes the
 pre-clearing of the page's PG_mlocked done by munlock_vma_page.
 
-If try_to_unmap() is unable to acquire a VM_LOCKED vma's associated mmap
-semaphore, it will return SWAP_AGAIN.  This will allow shrink_page_list()
-to recycle the page on the inactive list and hope that it has better luck
-with the page next time.
-
-For file pages mapped into non-linear vmas, the try_to_munlock() logic works
-slightly differently.  On encountering a VM_LOCKED non-linear vma that might
-map the page, try_to_munlock() returns SWAP_AGAIN without actually mlocking
-the page.  munlock_vma_page() will just leave the page unlocked and let
-vmscan deal with it--the usual fallback position.
-
-Note that try_to_munlock()'s reverse map walk must visit every vma in a pages'
-reverse map to determine that a page is NOT mapped into any VM_LOCKED vma.
-However, the scan can terminate when it encounters a VM_LOCKED vma and can
-successfully acquire the vma's mmap semphore for read and mlock the page.
-Although try_to_munlock() can be called many [very many!] times when
-munlock()ing a large region or tearing down a large address space that has been
-mlocked via mlockall(), overall this is a fairly rare event.

-shrink_active_list() culls any obviously unevictable pages--i.e.,

-list.  However, shrink_active_list() only sees unevictable pages that
-made it onto the active/inactive lru lists.  Note that these pages do not
-have PageUnevictable set--otherwise, they would be on the unevictable list and
-shrink_active_list would never see them.

+PAGE RECLAIM IN shrink_*_list()
+-------------------------------
+
+shrink_active_list() culls any obviously unevictable pages - i.e.
+!page_evictable(page, NULL) - diverting these to the unevictable list.
+However, shrink_active_list() only sees unevictable pages that made it onto the
+active/inactive lru lists.  Note that these pages do not have PageUnevictable
+set - otherwise they would be on the unevictable list and shrink_active_list
+would never see them.
 
 Some examples of these unevictable pages on the LRU lists are:
 
-1) ramfs pages that have been placed on the lru lists when first allocated.
+ (1) ramfs pages that have been placed on the LRU lists when first allocated.
+
+ (2) SHM_LOCK'd shared memory pages.  shmctl(SHM_LOCK) does not attempt to

+     when an application accesses the page the first time after SHM_LOCK'ing
+     the segment.

-   the segment.
+ (3) mlocked pages that could not be isolated from the LRU and moved to the

+     acquire the VMA's mmap semaphore to test the flags and set PageMlocked.

+shrink_inactive_list() also diverts any unevictable pages that it finds on the
+inactive lists to the appropriate zone's unevictable list.
 
-shrink_inactive_list() also culls any unevictable pages that it finds on
-the inactive lists, again diverting them to the appropriate zone's unevictable
-lru list.  shrink_inactive_list() should only see SHM_LOCKed pages that became
-SHM_LOCKed after shrink_active_list() had moved them to the inactive list, or
-pages mapped into VM_LOCKED vmas that munlock_vma_page() couldn't isolate from
-the lru to recheck via try_to_munlock().  shrink_inactive_list() won't notice
-the latter, but will pass on to shrink_page_list().
