We found 3 bug while we test and develop memory hotplug.
PATCH1~2: the old code does not handle node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY] correctly,
it corrupts the memory.
PATCH3: move the modification of zone_start_pfn into corresponding lock.
CC: Rob Landley
CC: Andrew Morton
CC: Jiang Liu
CC: Jianguo
SLUB only fucus on the nodes which has normal memory, so ignore the other
node's hot-adding and hot-removing.
Aka: if some memroy of a node(which has no onlined memory) is online,
but this new memory onlined is not normal memory(HIGH memory example),
we should not allocate kmem_cache_node for
The __add_zone() maybe call sleep-able init_currently_empty_zone()
to init wait_table,
But this function also modifies the zone_start_pfn without any lock.
It is bugy.
So we move this modification out, and we ensure the modification
of zone_start_pfn is only done with zone_span_writelock() held
Currently memory_hotplug only manages the node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY],
it forgets to manage node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY]. it causes
node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY] becomes stale.
We add check_nodemasks_changes_online() and check_nodemasks_changes_offline()
to detect whether node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY]

Hi All,
This is V2 of my sched_select_cpu() work.
In order to save power, it would be useful to schedule work onto non-IDLE cpus
instead of waking up an IDLE one.
To achieve this, we need scheduler to guide kernel frameworks (like: timers &
workqueues) on which is the most preferred CPU that
Workqueues queues work on current cpu, if the caller haven't passed a preferred
cpu. This may wake up an idle CPU, which is actually not required.
This work can be processed by any CPU and so we must select a non-idle CPU here.
This patch adds in support in workqueue framework to get preferred
Check for current cpu's idleness already done in implementation of
sched_select_cpu() which is called by get_nohz_timer_target(). So, no need to
call idle_cpu() twice, once from sched_select_cpu() and once from timer and
hrtimer before calling get_nohz_timer_target().
This patch removes calls to

Right, and even if the enum has a type name, it shows

Any comment on this patch set?
This is an important improvement for any system-wide measurement.

1. cmci_rediscover() is only called by the CPU_POST_DEAD event handler, which
means the corresponding cpu has already dead. As a result, it won't be accessed
in the for_each_online_cpu loop.
So, we could change the if(cpu == dying) statement into a BUG_ON().
2. cmci_rediscover() used

1. Remove private clock APIs, which are replaced by the code in
drivers/clk/clk-ls1x.c
2. Enable COMMON_CLK in the Kconfig.
3. some minor modifications.

Hi James, Martin,
Here is the updated version, please help to review.
Thanks, Zhong
As suggested by James: this patch tries to short the path length of
scsi_cmd_to_driver(). As only REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC commands can be
submitted without a driver, so we could avoid the related NULL
