8fc91fd859 ceph: message pools
The msgpool is a basic mempool_t-like structure to preallocate
messages we expect to receive over the wire.  This ensures we have the
necessary memory preallocated to process replies to requests, or to
process unsolicited messages from various servers.

31b8006e1d ceph: messenger library
A generic message passing library is used to communicate with all
other components in the Ceph file system.  The messenger library
provides ordered, reliable delivery of messages between two nodes in
the system.

This implementation is based on TCP.

963b61eb04 ceph: snapshot management
Ceph snapshots rely on client cooperation in determining which
operations apply to which snapshots, and appropriately flushing
snapshotted data and metadata back to the OSD and MDS clusters.
Because snapshots apply to subtrees of the file hierarchy and can be
created at any time, there is a fair bit of bookkeeping required to
make this work.

Portions of the hierarchy that belong to the same set of snapshots
are described by a single 'snap realm.'  A 'snap context' describes
the set of snapshots that exist for a given file or directory.

a8599bd821 ceph: capability management
The Ceph metadata servers control client access to inode metadata and
file data by issuing capabilities, granting clients permission to read
and/or write both inode field and file data to OSDs (storage nodes).
Each capability consists of a set of bits indicating which operations
are allowed.

If the client holds a *_SHARED cap, the client has a coherent value
that can be safely read from the cached inode.

In the case of a *_EXCL (exclusive) or FILE_WR capabilities, the client
is allowed to change inode attributes (e.g., file size, mtime), note
its dirty state in the ceph_cap, and asynchronously flush that
metadata change to the MDS.

In the event of a conflicting operation (perhaps by another client),
the MDS will revoke the conflicting client capabilities.

In order for a client to cache an inode, it must hold a capability
with at least one MDS server.  When inodes are released, release
notifications are batched and periodically sent en masse to the MDS
cluster to release server state.

ba75bb98cf ceph: monitor client
The monitor cluster is responsible for managing cluster membership
and state.  The monitor client handles what minimal interaction
the Ceph client has with it: checking for updated versions of the
MDS and OSD maps, getting statfs() information, and unmounting.

5ecc0a0f81 ceph: CRUSH mapping algorithm
CRUSH is a pseudorandom data distribution function designed to map
inputs onto a dynamic hierarchy of devices, while minimizing the
extent to which inputs are remapped when the devices are added or
removed.  It includes some features that are specifically useful for
storage, most notably the ability to map each input onto a set of N
devices that are separated across administrator-defined failure
domains.  CRUSH is used to distribute data across the cluster of Ceph
storage nodes.

More information about CRUSH can be found in this paper:

f24e9980eb ceph: OSD client
The OSD client is responsible for reading and writing data from/to the
object storage pool.  This includes determining where objects are
stored in the cluster, and ensuring that requests are retried or
redirected in the event of a node failure or data migration.

If an OSD does not respond before a timeout expires, keepalive
messages are sent across the lossless, ordered communications channel
to ensure that any break in the TCP is discovered.  If the session
does reset, a reconnection is attempted and affected requests are
resent (by the message transport layer).

2f2dc05340 ceph: MDS client
The MDS (metadata server) client is responsible for submitting
requests to the MDS cluster and parsing the response.  We decide which
MDS to submit each request to based on cached information about the
current partition of the directory hierarchy across the cluster.  A
stateful session is opened with each MDS before we submit requests to
it, and a mutex is used to control the ordering of messages within
each session.

An MDS request may generate two responses.  The first indicates the
operation was a success and returns any result.  A second reply is
sent when the operation commits to disk.  Note that locking on the MDS
ensures that the results of updates are visible only to the updating
client before the operation commits.  Requests are linked to the
containing directory so that an fsync will wait for them to commit.

If an MDS fails and/or recovers, we resubmit requests as needed.  We
also reconnect existing capabilities to a recovering MDS to
reestablish that shared session state.  Old dentry leases are
invalidated.

1d3576fd10 ceph: address space operations
The ceph address space methods are concerned primarily with managing
the dirty page accounting in the inode, which (among other things)
must keep track of which snapshot context each page was dirtied in,
and ensure that dirty data is written out to the OSDs in snapshort
order.

A writepage() on a page that is not currently writeable due to
snapshot writeback ordering constraints is ignored (it was presumably
called from kswapd).

124e68e740 ceph: file operations
File open and close operations, and read and write methods that ensure
we have obtained the proper capabilities from the MDS cluster before
performing IO on a file.  We take references on held capabilities for
the duration of the read/write to avoid prematurely releasing them
back to the MDS.

We implement two main paths for read and write: one that is buffered
(and uses generic_aio_{read,write}), and one that is fully synchronous
and blocking (operating either on a __user pointer or, if O_DIRECT,
directly on user pages).

2817b000b0 ceph: directory operations
Directory operations, including lookup, are defined here.  We take
advantage of lookup intents when possible.  For the most part, we just
need to build the proper requests for the metadata server(s) and
pass things off to the mds_client.

The results of most operations are normally incorporated into the
client's cache when the reply is parsed by ceph_fill_trace().
However, if the MDS replies without a trace (e.g., when retrying an
update after an MDS failure recovery), some operation-specific cleanup
may be needed.

We can validate cached dentries in two ways.  A per-dentry lease may
be issued by the MDS, or a per-directory cap may be issued that acts
as a lease on the entire directory.  In the latter case, a 'gen' value
is used to determine which dentries belong to the currently leased
directory contents.

We normally prepopulate the dcache and icache with readdir results.
This makes subsequent lookups and getattrs avoid any server
interaction.  It also lets us satisfy readdir operation by peeking at
the dcache IFF we hold the per-directory cap/lease, previously
performed a readdir, and haven't dropped any of the resulting
dentries.

f278a2f7bb tty: Fix regressions caused by commit b50989dc
The following commit made console open fails while booting:

	commit b50989dc44
	Author: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com>
	Date:   Sat Sep 19 13:13:22 2009 -0700

	tty: make the kref destructor occur asynchronously

Due to tty release routines run in a workqueue now, error like the
following will be reported while booting:

INIT open /dev/console Input/output error

It also causes hibernation regression to appear as reported at
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14229

The reason is that now there's latency issue with closing, but when
we open a "closing not finished" tty, -EIO will be returned.

Fix it as per the following Alan's suggestion:

  Fun but it's actually not a bug and the fix is wrong in itself as
  the port may be closing but not yet being destructed, in which case
  it seems to do the wrong thing.  Opening a tty that is closing (and
  could be closing for long periods) is supposed to return -EIO.

  I suspect a better way to deal with this and keep the old console
  timing is to split tty->shutdown into two functions.

  tty->shutdown() - called synchronously just before we dump the tty
  onto the waitqueue for destruction

  tty->cleanup() - called when the destructor runs.

  We would then do the shutdown part which can occur in IRQ context
  fine, before queueing the rest of the release (from tty->magic = 0
  ...  the end) to occur asynchronously

  The USB update in -next would then need a call like

       if (tty->cleanup)
               tty->cleanup(tty);

  at the top of the async function and the USB shutdown to be split
  between shutdown and cleanup as the USB resource cleanup and final
  tidy cannot occur synchronously as it needs to sleep.

  In other words the logic becomes

       final kref put
               make object unfindable

       async
               clean it up

3d5b6fb47a ACPI: Kill overly verbose "power state" log messages
I was recently lucky enough to get a 64-CPU system, so my kernel log
ends up with 64 lines like:

    ACPI: CPU0 (power states: C1[C1] C2[C3])

This is pretty useless clutter because this info is already available
after boot from both /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpuidle/state?/ as
well as /proc/acpi/processor/CPU*/power.

So just delete the code that prints the C-states in processor_idle.c.

14f03343ad ACPI: Clarify resource conflict message
The message "ACPI: Device needs an ACPI driver" is misleading. The
device _may_ need an ACPI driver, if the BIOS implemented a custom
API for the device in question (which, AFAIK, can't be checked.) If
not, then either a generic ACPI driver may be used (for example
"thermal"), or nothing can be done (other than a white list).

I propose to reword the message to:

ACPI: If an ACPI driver is available for this device, you should use
it instead of the native driver

which I think is more correct. Comments and suggestions welcome.

I also added a message warning about possible problems and system
instability when users pass acpi_enforce_resources=lax, as suggested
by Len.

9e6ec39bec make Linux bootable on ARM again
Commit 200b812d00 "Clear the exclusive monitor when returning from an
exception" broke the vast majority of ARM systems in the wild which are
still pre ARMv6.  The kernel is crashing on the first occurrence of an
exception due to the removal of the actual return instruction for them.
Let's add it back.

89dfc28ccb backlight: extend event support to also support poll()
Extend the backlight event support to also allow the use of
poll()/select() on actual_brightness.

We already have the entire event hookup anyway, adding a single
function call in one line to get functionality like that is a really
good deal.

e96c9284bd ACPI: i2c-scmi: don't use acpi_device_uid()
We recently removed the acpi_device_uid() interface because nobody
used it.  I don't think it's essential here either.
