[PATCH 3/3] cgroup : remove the ns_cgroup
The ns_cgroup is an annoying cgroup at the namespace / cgroup frontier. For example, a single process can not handle a big amount of namespaces without interacting with this cgroup and falling in an exponential creation time due to the nested cgroup directory depth (eg. /cgroup/<pid>/.../<pid>/...). That was sp... 29 Jul 2010 16:18

[PATCH 17/17] x86: remove old bootmem code
Requested by Ingo, Thomas and HPA. it mean 2.6.34 and 2.6.35 have them bootmem and nobootmem for x86. and later for x86 will only have nobootmem Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai(a)kernel.org> --- arch/x86/Kconfig | 10 +------- arch/x86/kernel/setup.c | 4 --- arch/x86/mm/init_32.c | 56 ----... 29 Jul 2010 16:18

[PATCH 04/17] x86, memblock: Add memblock_x86_to_bootmem()
memblock_x86_to_bootmem() will reserve memblock.reserved.region in bootmem after bootmem is set up. We can use it to with all arches that support memblock later.

[PATCH 1/3] cgroup : add clone_children control file
This patch is sent as an answer to a previous thread around the ns_cgroup. https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/containers/2009-June/018627.html It adds a control file 'clone_children' for a cgroup. This control file is a boolean specifying if the child cgroup should be a clone of the parent cgroup or n... 29 Jul 2010 16:18

[PATCH 2/3] cgroup : make the mount options parsing more accurate
The actual code does not detect 'all' with one subsystem name, which is IMHO mutually exclusive and when an option is specified even if it is not a subsystem name, we have to specify the 'all' option with the other option. eg: not detected : mount -t cgroup -o all,freezer cgroup /cgroup not flexible : mount -t ... 29 Jul 2010 16:18
