[PATCH resend] x86,kvm: Add a kernel parameter to disable PV spinlock

This is just a resend of Waiman Long's patch. I could not find why it was not merged to upstream, so I thought to give it another chance. What follows is what Waiman Long wrote. Xen has an kernel command line argument "xen_nopvspin" to disable paravirtual spinlocks. This patch adds a similar

[v7 1/5] mm, oom: refactor the oom_kill_process() function

The oom_kill_process() function consists of two logical parts: the first one is responsible for considering task's children as a potential victim and printing the debug information. The second half is responsible for sending SIGKILL to all tasks sharing the mm struct with the given victim. This

[v7 0/5] cgroup-aware OOM killer

This patchset makes the OOM killer cgroup-aware. v7: - __oom_kill_process() drops reference to the victim task - oom_score_adj -1000 is always respected - Renamed oom_kill_all to oom_group - Dropped oom_prio range, converted from short to int - Added a cgroup v2 mount option to disable

[v7 3/5] mm, oom: introduce oom_priority for memory cgroups

Introduce a per-memory-cgroup oom_priority setting: an integer number, which defines the order in which the OOM killer selects victim memory cgroups. OOM killer prefers memory cgroups with larger priority if they are populated with eligible tasks. The oom_priority value is compared within

[PATCH 2/2] media: ca.h: document ca_msg and the corresponding ioctls

Usually, CA messages are sent/received via reading/writing at the CA device node. However, two drivers (dst_ca and firedtv-ci) also implement it via ioctls. Apparently, on both cases, the net result is the same. Anyway, let's document it. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab
