created at the end of the build: it's either not present or, worse, wrong for
most of the build.
So the patch arranges for compile.h to be built at the start of the build
process. It also consolidates the compile.h rules with those for version.h

Linus sayeth:
Google knows everything, and finds, on MS own site no less:
"Windows 2000 default resources:
One 4K memory window
One 2 MB memory window
Two 256-byte I/O windows"
which is clearly utterly bogus and insufficient. But Microsoft apparently
realized this, and:
"Windows XP default resources:
Because one memory window of 4K and one window of 2 MB are not
sufficient for CardBus controllers in many configurations, Windows XP
allocates larger memory windows to CardBus controllers where possible.
However, resource windows are static (that is, the operating system
does not dynamically allocate larger memory windows if new devices
appear.) Under Windows XP, CardBus controllers will be assigned the
following resources:
One 4K memory window, as in Windows 2000
64 MB memory, if that amount of memory is available. If 64 MB is not
available the controller will receive 32 MB; if 32 MB is not available,
the controller will receive 16 MB; if 16 MB is not available, the
bridge will receive 8 MB; and so on down to a minimum assignment of 1
MB in configurations where memory is too constrained for the operating
system to provide a larger window.
Two 256-byte I/O windows"
So I think we have our answer. Windows uses one 4k window, and one 64MB
window. And they are no more dynamic than we are (we _could_ try to do it
dynamically, but let's face it, it's fairly painful to dynamically expand
PCI bus resources - you may need to reprogram everything up to the root,
so it would be absolutely crazy to do that unless you have some serious
masochistic tendencies).
So let's just increase our default value to 64M too.

truncate presently invalidates the dirty page's buffer_heads then shoots down
the page. But try_to_free_buffers() will now bale out because the page is
dirty.
Net effect: the LRU gets filled with dirty pages which have invalidated
buffer_heads attached. They have no ->mapping and hence cannot be cleaned.
The machine leaks memory at an enormous rate.
Fix this by cleaning the page before running try_to_free_buffers(), so
try_to_free_buffers() can do its work.
Also, remember to do dirty-page-acoounting in cancel_dirty_page() so the
machine won't wedge up trying to write non-existent dirty pages.
Probably still wrong, but now less so.

Add a simple /proc/pid/io to show the IO accounting fields.
Maybe this shouldn't be merged in mainline - the preferred reporting channel
is taskstats. But given the poor state of our userspace support for
taskstats, this is useful for developer-testing, at least. And it improves
the changes that the procps developers will wire it up into top(1). Opinions
are sought.
The patch also wires up the existing IO-accounting fields.
It's a bit racy on 32-bit machines: if process A reads process B's
/proc/pid/io while process B is updating one of those 64-bit counters, process
A could see an intermediate result.

Accounting writes is fairly simple: whenever a process flips a page from clean
to dirty, we accuse it of having caused a write to underlying storage of
PAGE_CACHE_SIZE bytes.
This may overestimate the amount of writing: the page-dirtying may cause only
one buffer_head's worth of writeout. Fixing that is possible, but probably a
bit messy and isn't obviously important.

The present per-task IO accounting isn't very useful. It simply counts the
number of bytes passed into read() and write(). So if a process reads 1MB
from an already-cached file, it is accused of having performed 1MB of I/O,
which is wrong.
(David Wright had some comments on the applicability of the present logical IO accounting:
For billing purposes it is useless but for workload analysis it is very
useful
read_bytes/read_calls average read request size
write_bytes/write_calls average write request size
read_bytes/read_blocks ie logical/physical can indicate hit rate or thrashing
write_bytes/write_blocks ie logical/physical guess since pdflush writes can
be missed
I often look for logical larger than physical to see filesystem cache
problems. And the bytes/cpusec can help find applications that are
dominating the cache and causing slow interactive response from page cache
contention.
I want to find the IO intensive applications and make sure they are doing
efficient IO. Thus the acctcms(sysV) or csacms command would give the high
IO commands).
This patchset adds new accounting which tries to be more accurate. We account
for three things:
reads:
attempt to count the number of bytes which this process really did cause
to be fetched from the storage layer. Done at the submit_bio() level, so it
is accurate for block-backed filesystems. I also attempt to wire up NFS and
CIFS.
writes:
attempt to count the number of bytes which this process caused to be sent
to the storage layer. This is done at page-dirtying time.
The big inaccuracy here is truncate. If a process writes 1MB to a file
and then deletes the file, it will in fact perform no writeout. But it will
have been accounted as having caused 1MB of write.
So...
cancelled_writes:
account the number of bytes which this process caused to not happen, by
truncating pagecache.
We _could_ just subtract this from the process's `write' accounting. But
that means that some processes would be reported to have done negative
amounts of write IO, which is silly.
So we just report the raw number and punt this decision up to userspace.
Now, we _could_ account for writes at the physical I/O level. But
- This would require that we track memory-dirtying tasks at the per-page
level (would require a new pointer in struct page).
- It would mean that IO statistics for a process are usually only available
long after that process has exitted. Which means that we probably cannot
communicate this info via taskstats.
This patch:
Wire up the kernel-private data structures and the accessor functions to
manipulate them.

`select' doesn't work very well. With alpha `make allmodconfig' we end up
with CONFIG_STACKTRACE enabled, so we end up with undefined save_stacktrace()
at link time.

- Fix some spelling and grammatical errors
- Make the Kconfig menu more conventional. First you select
fault-injection, then under that you select particular clients of it.

Keith says
Compiling 2.6.19-rc6 with gcc version 4.1.0 (SUSE Linux), wait_hpet_tick is
optimized away to a never ending loop and the kernel hangs on boot in timer
setup.
0000001a <wait_hpet_tick>:
1a: 55 push %ebp
1b: 89 e5 mov %esp,%ebp
1d: eb fe jmp 1d <wait_hpet_tick+0x3>
This is not a problem with gcc 3.3.5. Adding barrier() calls to
wait_hpet_tick does not help, making the variables volatile does.
And the consensus is that gcc-4.1.0 is busted. Suse went and shipped
gcc-4.1.0 so we cannot ban it. Add a warning.

smp_call_function_single() can deadlock if the caller disabled local
interrupts (the target CPU could be spinning on call_lock). Check for that.
Why on earth do these functions use spin_lock_bh()??

Port commit a090d9132c into ext2:
All modifications of ->i_flags in inodes that might be visible to somebody
else must be under ->i_mutex. That patch fixes ext2 ioctl() setting S_APPEND.
