-throttling-fix.patch -sleeping-release_page.patch -dirty-state-accounting.patch -discontig-cleanup-1.patch -discontig-cleanup-2.patch -writeback-thresholds.patch -buffer-strip.patch -rmap-speedup.patch -wli-highpte.patch
Merged
-lpp2.patch
Folded into lpp.patch - hugetlb fixes
+lpp-update.patch
More hugetlb fixes from Rohit.
+pf_nowarn.patch
Prevent some `page allocation failure' warnings which aren't supposed to come out.
+jeremy.patch
Spel Jermy's naim wright
-segq.patch
SEGQ had an interaction with the dirty memory management. This interaction was the source of Badari's IO bandwidth regression. Removed until I have time to poke at it.
+wake-speedup.patch
Badari's pagecache writeout is back up to 270 megs/sec. The CPUs are pegged and the hottest functions are
5348 __wake_up 111.4167 6954 unlock_page 72.4375 187676 generic_file_write_nolock 71.9617 9577 __scsi_end_request 54.4148
I cannot reproduce these profiles with mortal numbers of hard disks, but the wakeup code can be sped up heaps.
The patch implements a new wait/wakeup mechanism which removes wait_queues from wait_queue_head's within __wake_up(), rather than within the woken process.
+buddyinfo.patch
/proc/buddyinfo - stats on free page fragmentation.
+free_area.patch
Nail another gratuitous typedef
+radix_tree_gang_lookup.patch
Multipage pagecache scan and lookup.
+truncate_inode_pages.patch
Redo the truncate/invalidate code to use gang lookups.
