PM / Hibernate: Fix preallocating of memory

2010-03-15T15:49:46Z

commit a9c9b4429df437982d2fbfab1f4b46b01329e9ed upstream. The hibernate memory preallocation code allocates memory to push some user space data out of physical RAM, so that the hibernation image is not too large. It allocates more memory than necessary for creating the image, so it has to release some pages to make room for allocations made while suspending devices and disabling nonboot CPUs, or the system will hang due to the lack of free pages to allocate from. Unfortunately, the function used for freeing these pages, free_unnecessary_pages(), contains a bug that prevents it from doing the job on all systems without highmem. Fix this problem, which is a regression from the 2.6.30 kernel, by using the right condition for the termination of the loop in free_unnecessary_pages(). Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

PM / Hibernate: Add newline to load_image() fail path

PM / Hibernate: Fix error handling in save_image()

2009-11-03T10:02:43Z

There are too many retval variables in save_image(). Thus error return value from snapshot_read_next() may be ignored and only part of the snapshot (successfully) written. Remove 'error' variable, invert the condition in the do-while loop and convert the loop to use only 'ret' variable. Switch the rest of the function to consider only 'ret'. Also make sure we end printed line by \n if an error occurs. Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby Acked-by: Pavel Machek Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

PM / Hibernate: Fix blkdev refleaks

2009-11-03T10:01:46Z

While cruising through the swsusp code I found few blkdev reference leaks of resume_bdev. swsusp_read: remove blkdev_put altogether. Some fail paths do not do that. swsusp_check: make sure we always put a reference on fail paths software_resume: all fail paths between swsusp_check and swsusp_read omit swsusp_close. Add it in those cases. And since swsusp_read doesn't drop the reference anymore, do it here unconditionally.

PM: Make warning in suspend_test_finish() less likely to happen

2009-10-21T23:23:45Z

Increase TEST_SUSPEND_SECONDS to 10 so the warning in suspend_test_finish() doesn't annoy the users of slower systems so much. Also, make the warning print the suspend-resume cycle time, so that we know why the warning actually triggered. Patch prepared during the hacking session at the Kernel Summit in Tokyo.

headers: utsname.h redux

2009-09-24T01:13:10Z

* remove asm/atomic.h inclusion from linux/utsname.h -- not needed after kref conversion * remove linux/utsname.h inclusion from files which do not need it NOTE: it looks like fs/binfmt_elf.c do not need utsname.h, however due to some personality stuff it _is_ needed -- cowardly leave ELF-related headers and files alone.

mm: don't use alloc_bootmem_low() where not strictly needed

2009-09-22T14:17:38Z

Since alloc_bootmem() will never return inaccessible (via virtual addressing) memory anyway, using the ..._low() variant only makes sense when the physical address range of the allocated memory must fulfill further constraints, espacially since on 64-bits (or more generally in all cases where the pools the two variants allocate from are than the full available range. Probably the use in alloc_tce_table() could also be eliminated (based on code inspection of pci-calgary_64.c), but that seems too risky given I know nothing about that hardware and have no way to test it.

vt: remove power stuff from kernel/power

2009-09-19T20:13:25Z

In the past someone gratuitiously borrowed chunks of kernel internal vt code and dumped them in kernel/power. They have all sorts of deep relations with the vt code so put them in the vt tree instead Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
