I was grepping through the code and some `grep ganularity -R .` didn't
catch what I thought. Then looking closer I saw the term "granuality"
used in only four places (in comments) and granularity in many more
places describing the same idea. Some other facts:
dictionary.com does not know such a word
define:granuality on google is not found (and pages for granuality are
mostly related to patches to the kernel)
it has not been discussed as a term on LKML, AFAICS (=Can Search)
To be consistent, I think granularity should be used everywhere.

[NET]: Allow skb headroom to be overridden

Previously we added NET_IP_ALIGN so an architecture can override the
padding done to align headers. The next step is to allow the skb
headroom to be overridden.
We currently always reserve 16 bytes to grow into, meaning all DMAs
start 16 bytes into a cacheline. On ppc64 we really want DMA writes to
start on a cacheline boundary, so we increase that headroom to one
cacheline.

On a allyesconfig'ured kernel:
Size Uses Wasted Name and definition
===== ==== ====== ================================================
95 162 12075 netif_wake_queue include/linux/netdevice.h
129 86 9265 dev_kfree_skb_any include/linux/netdevice.h
127 56 5885 netif_device_attach include/linux/netdevice.h
73 86 4505 dev_kfree_skb_irq include/linux/netdevice.h
46 60 1534 netif_device_detach include/linux/netdevice.h
119 16 1485 __netif_rx_schedule include/linux/netdevice.h
143 5 492 netif_rx_schedule include/linux/netdevice.h
81 7 366 netif_schedule include/linux/netdevice.h
netif_wake_queue is big because __netif_schedule is a big inline:
static inline void __netif_schedule(struct net_device *dev)
{
if (!test_and_set_bit(__LINK_STATE_SCHED, &dev->state)) {
unsigned long flags;
struct softnet_data *sd;
local_irq_save(flags);
sd = &__get_cpu_var(softnet_data);
dev->next_sched = sd->output_queue;
sd->output_queue = dev;
raise_softirq_irqoff(NET_TX_SOFTIRQ);
local_irq_restore(flags);
}
}
static inline void netif_wake_queue(struct net_device *dev)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_NETPOLL_TRAP
if (netpoll_trap())
return;
#endif
if (test_and_clear_bit(__LINK_STATE_XOFF, &dev->state))
__netif_schedule(dev);
}
By de-inlining __netif_schedule we are saving a lot of text
at each callsite of netif_wake_queue and netif_schedule.
__netif_rx_schedule is also big, and it makes more sense to keep
both of them out of line.
Patch also deinlines dev_kfree_skb_any. We can deinline dev_kfree_skb_irq
instead... oh well.
netif_device_attach/detach are not hot paths, we can deinline them too.

Commit 70674f95c0a2ea694d5c39f4e514f538a09be36f:
[PATCH] Optimize select/poll by putting small data sets on the stack
resulted in the poll stack being 4-byte aligned on 64-bit architectures,
causing misaligned accesses to elements in the array.
This patch fixes it by declaring the stack in terms of 'long' instead
of 'char'.
Force alignment of poll and select stacks to long to avoid unaligned
access on 64 bit architectures.

The attached patch documents the Linux kernel's memory barriers.
I've updated it from the comments I've been given.
The per-arch notes sections are gone because it's clear that there are so many
exceptions, that it's not worth having them.
I've added a list of references to other documents.
I've tried to get rid of the concept of memory accesses appearing on the bus;
what matters is apparent behaviour with respect to other observers in the
system.
Interrupts barrier effects are now considered to be non-existent. They may be
there, but you may not rely on them.
I've added a couple of definition sections at the top of the document: one to
specify the minimum execution model that may be assumed, the other to specify
what this document refers to by the term "memory".
I've made greater mention of the use of mmiowb().
I've adjusted the way in which caches are described, and described the fun
that can be had with cache coherence maintenance being unordered and data
dependency not being necessarily implicit.
I've described (smp_)read_barrier_depends().
I've rearranged the order of the sections, so that memory barriers are
discussed in abstract first, and then described the memory barrier facilities
available on Linux, before going on to more real-world discussions and examples.
I've added information about the lack of memory barriering effects with atomic
ops and bitops.
I've added information about control dependencies.
I've added more diagrams to illustrate caching interactions between CPUs.

during recovery
Currently a device failure during recovery leaves bits set in the bitmap.
This normally isn't a problem as the offending device will be rejected because
of errors. However if device re-adding is being used with non-persistent
bitmaps, this can be a problem.
