Lightweight userspace priority inheritance (PI) support for futexes
[http://lwn.net/Articles/178253/ (LWN article)] A critical feature for RT-ish apps. Currently (without PI), if a high-prio and a low-prio task shares a lock, even if all critical sections are coded carefully to be deterministic (i.e. all critical sections are short in duration and only execute a limited number of instructions), the kernel cannot guarantee any deterministic execution of the high-prio task: any medium-priority task could preempt the low-prio task while it holds the shared lock and executes the critical section, and could delay it indefinitely. User-space PI helps achieving/improving determinism for user-space applications. To see why it has been implemented (PI concepts have been rejected in the past in Linux), design and implementation details, links to the glibc patch needed to usse this feature and more, see the commit link [http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=e2970f2fb6950183a34e8545faa093eb49d186e1 (commit)], [http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=b29739f902ee76a05493fb7d2303490fc75364f4 (commit)], [http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=23f78d4a03c53cbd75d87a795378ea540aa08c86 (commit)], [http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=a6537be9324c67b41f6d98f5a60a1bd5a8e02861 (commit)]
lockdep, a kernel lock validator
Linux's locking style is know for being quite simple compared with other Unix SMP-friendly derivatives. Still, locking is a neccesary evil that is hard to get right for most of normal programmers, and locking bugs can be very difficult to find. The kernel lock validator is a debugging tool that tries to makes such things easier. lockdep is a complex infrastructure to the kernel which can then be used to prove that none of the locking patterns observed in a running system could ever deadlock the kernel (more details in this [http://lwn.net/Articles/185666/ LWN article)].

Power saving policy for the process scheduler
In machines with several multicore/smt "packages" (which will become increasinly common in the future), the power consumption can be improved by letting some packages idle while others do all the work, instead of spreading the tasks over all CPUs, so a optional power saving policy has been developed to make this possible. When this power savings policy is enabled - set to 1 the sysfs entry 'sched_mc_power_savings' or 'sched_smt_power_savings' placed under /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/ - and under light load conditions, the scheduler will minimize the physical packages/cpu cores carrying the load and thus conserving power, but impacting the performance depending on the workload characteristics (when there's lot of work to do all CPUs will be used, to completely disable individual CPUs use the already available CPU hotplugging feature by writing 0 to the "online" file in that same sysfs directory). Read the "Chip Multi Processing(CMP) aware Linux Kernel Scheduler" talk from [http://www.linuxsymposium.org/2005/linuxsymposium_procv2.pdf the OLS 2005] (page 201 and onwards) for more details on the effect of this policy [http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=5c45bf279d378d436ce45825c0f136696c7b6109 (commit)]
'SMPnice': take priority into account when balancing processes between CPUs
One of the design principles of the new 2.6 scheduler (aka, "Ingo's O(1) scheduler") was the idea of having a separate run queue of processes for each CPU present on the system, instead of a single run queue for all CPUs, for scalability reasons. Periodically, the scheduler would balance the per-cpu run queues to distribute all the jobs and keep all the CPUs busy. However, priority levels were not taken into account at the time of doing this balance and it was possible recreate scenarios where the kernel was being unfair, specially with unprivileged processes. "SMPnice" is a implementation of a solution for this problem [http://lwn.net/Articles/186438/ (LWN article)], [http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=2dd73a4f09beacadde827a032cf15fd8b1fa3d48 (commit)]
Swapless page migration
Being able to migrate pyshical pages between nodes in NUMA-like systems - to improve the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locality_of_reference locality of reference] - was introduced in [http://wiki.kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_16 Linux 2.6.16], but it didn't use a very clean method: pages were swapped out in purpose, and then the next time those pages would be faulted, they'd be swapped in to the node where you wanted to move those pages instead of the old one. This trick was used but now the feature has been completed with "direct page migration": Now pages are moved directly from one node to another, without using swap. This feature includes a new system call which allows to move individual pages of a process from one node to another: long move_pages(pid, number_of_pages_to_move, addresses_of_pages[], nodes[] or NULL, status[],lags) - the swap-based migration had already added a migrate_pages() syscall and a MPOL_MF_MOVE option to the set_mempolicy() syscall).

Zoned vm counters
basic ZVC (zoned vm counter) implementation: Per zone counter infrastructure The counters that we currently have for the VM are split per processor. The processor however has not much to do with the zone these pages belong to. We cannot tell f.e. how many ZONE_DMA pages are dirty. So we are blind to potentially inbalances in the usage of memory in various zones. F.e. in a NUMA system we cannot tell how many pages are dirty on a particular node. If we knew then we could put measures into the VM to balance the use of memory between different zones and different nodes in a NUMA system. For example it would be possible to limit the dirty pages per node so that fast local memory is kept available even if a process is dirtying huge amounts of pages. Another example is zone reclaim. We do not know how many unmapped pages exist per zone. So we just have to try to reclaim. If it is not working then we pause and try again later. It would be better if we knew when it makes sense to reclaim unmapped pages from a zone. This patchset allows the determination of the number of unmapped pages per zone. We can remove the zone reclaim interval with the counters introduced here [http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=2244b95a7bcf8d24196f8a3a44187ba5dfff754c (commit)]
