2006-03-25[PATCH] Remove MODULE_PARMRusty Russell3-12/+12
MODULE_PARM was actually breaking: recent gcc version optimize them out as unused. It's time to replace the last users, which are generally in the most unloved drivers anyway.

2006-02-24[PATCH] Fix race condition in hvc console.Michal Ostrowski1-3/+5
tty_schedule_flip() would schedule a thread that would call flush_to_ldisc(). If tty_buffer_request_room() gets called prior to that thread running -- which is likely in this loop in hvc_poll(), it would set the active flag in the tty buffer and consequently flush_to_ldisc() would ignore it. The result is that input on the hvc console is not processed. This fix calls tty_flip_buffer_push (and flags the tty as "low_latency"). The push to the ldisc thus happens synchronously.

2006-02-20[PATCH] Terminate process that fails on a constrained allocationChristoph Lameter1-1/+1
Some allocations are restricted to a limited set of nodes (due to memory policies or cpuset constraints). If the page allocator is not able to find enough memory then that does not mean that overall system memory is low. In particular going postal and more or less randomly shooting at processes is not likely going to help the situation but may just lead to suicide (the whole system coming down). It is better to signal to the process that no memory exists given the constraints that the process (or the configuration of the process) has placed on the allocation behavior. The process may be killed but then the sysadmin or developer can investigate the situation. The solution is similar to what we do when running out of hugepages. This patch adds a check before we kill processes. At that point performance considerations do not matter much so we just scan the zonelist and reconstruct a list of nodes. If the list of nodes does not contain all online nodes then this is a constrained allocation and we should kill the current process.
