Hello,
I'm trying to measure offcore events
OFFCORE_RESPONSE.ALL_READS.LLC_MISS.DRAM_N (0x3004003F7) using perf
tool. However, I didn't find the way to encode offcore events in
current perf documentation. Can someone help me? Thank you so much.

Right now, we call ClearSlabPfmemalloc() for first page of slab when we

Hi folks,
I have system that no longer boots kdump kernel. Basically,
# echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger

Any idea?

If networking is enabled force TCP/IP to enabled. This also
eliminates the time chasing down errors with bogus configurations

Seth Jennings (3):
zsmalloc: promote to mm/
drivers: add memory management driver class
zcache: promote to drivers/m
This patch promotes the slab-based zsmalloc memory allocator
from the staging tree to mm/
zcache depends on this allocator for storing compressed RAM pages
in an efficient way under system wide memory pressure where
high-order (greater than 0) page allocation are very likely to
fail.
For more inf
This patchset creates a new driver class under drivers/ for
memory management related drivers, like zcache.
This driver class would be for drivers that don't actually enabled
a hardware device, but rather augment the memory manager in some
way.
In-tree candidates for this driver class are zcache,
This patchset promotes the zcache driver from staging to drivers/mm/.
zcache captures swap pages via frontswap and pages that fall
out of the page cache via cleancache and compress them in RAM,
providing a compressed RAM swap and a compressed second-chance
page cache.

We would the full P2M top directory from 0->MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES (inclusive).
Which meant that if the kernel was compiled with MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES=512
we would try to use the 512th entry. Fortunately for us the p2m_top_index
has a check for this:
BUG_ON(pfn >= MAX_P2M_PFN);
which we hit and saw this:

Unconditionally call Yama when CONFIG_SECURITY_YAMA_STACKED is selected,
no matter what LSM module is primary.
Ubuntu and Chrome OS already carry patches to do this, and Fedora
has voiced interest in doing this as well. Instead of having multiple

Device have SYS rail which is always ON. It is system power bus. LDO5
and LDO_RTC get powered through this rail internally. Add support for
this rail and make the LDO5/LDO_RTC supply by it. Update document
accordingly.
