Remove TTY_DONT_FLIP tty flag. This flag was introduced in 2.1.X kernels
to prevent the N_TTY line discipline functions read_chan() and
n_tty_receive_buf() from running at the same time. 2.2.15 introduced
tty->read_lock to protect access to the N_TTY read buffer, which is the
only state requiring protection between these two functions.
The current TTY_DONT_FLIP implementation is broken for SMP, and is not
universally honored by drivers that send data directly to the line
discipline receive_buf function.
Because TTY_DONT_FLIP is not necessary, is broken in implementation, and is
not universally honored, it is removed.

Temporarily add EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL and EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL_GPL. These
will be used as a transition measure for symbols that aren't used in the
kernel and are on the way out. When a module uses such a symbol, a warning
is printk'd at modprobe time.
The main reason for removing unused exports is size: eacho export takes
roughly between 100 and 150 bytes of kernel space in the binary. This
patch gives users the option to immediately get this size gain via a config

- nommu.h merged into mmu.h (it's only a structure)
- nommu_context.h is essentially the same as mmu_context.h, but
without the MM switching code.
so there's no point having separate files. Also, in memory.h,
there's no point #ifndef'ing PHYS_OFFSET and END_MEM - both
CONFIG_DRAM_BASE and CONFIG_DRAM_SIZE will always be set by the

Other files have minor formatting changes, but are essentially

Implemented a new acpi_spinlock type for the OSL lock
interfaces. This allows the type to be customized to
the host OS for improved efficiency (since a spinlock is
usually a very small object.)
Implemented support for "ignored" bits in the ACPI
registers. According to the ACPI specification, these
bits should be preserved when writing the registers via
a read/modify/write cycle. There are 3 bits preserved
in this manner: PM1_CONTROL[0] (SCI_EN), PM1_CONTROL[9],
and PM1_STATUS[11].

Implemented the initial deployment of new OSL mutex
interfaces. Since some host operating systems have
separate mutex and semaphore objects, this feature was
requested. The base code now uses mutexes (and the new
mutex interfaces) wherever a binary semaphore was used
previously. However, for the current release, the mutex
interfaces are defined as macros to map them to the
existing semaphore interfaces.
Fixed several problems with the support for the control
method SyncLevel parameter. The SyncLevel now works
according to the ACPI specification and in concert with the
Mutex SyncLevel parameter, since the current SyncLevel is
a property of the executing thread. Mutual exclusion for
control methods is now implemented with a mutex instead
of a semaphore.
Fixed three instances of the use of the C shift operator
in the bitfield support code (exfldio.c) to avoid the use
of a shift value larger than the target data width. The
behavior of C compilers is undefined in this case and can
cause unpredictable results, and therefore the case must
be detected and avoided. (Fiodor Suietov)

With this patch, kdump uses the firmware soft-reset NMI for two purposes:
1) Initiate the kdump (take a crash dump) by issuing a soft-reset.
2) Break a CPU out of a deadlock condition that is detected during kdump
processing.
When a soft-reset is initiated each CPU will enter
system_reset_exception() and set its corresponding bit in the global
bit-array cpus_in_sr then call die(). When die() finds the CPU's bit set
in cpu_in_sr crash_kexec() is called to initiate a crash dump. The first
CPU to enter crash_kexec() is called the "crashing CPU". All other CPUs
are "secondary CPUs". The secondary CPU's pass through to
crash_kexec_secondary() and sleep. The crashing CPU waits for all CPUs
to enter via soft-reset then boots the kdump kernel (see
crash_soft_reset_check())
When the system crashes due to a panic or exception, crash_kexec() is
called by panic() or die(). The crashing CPU sends an IPI to all other
CPUs to notify them of the pending shutdown. If a CPU is in a deadlock
or hung state with interrupts disabled, the IPI will not be delivered.
The result being, that the kdump kernel is not booted. This problem is
solved with the use of a firmware generated soft-reset. After the
crashing_cpu has issued the IPI, it waits for 10 sec for all CPUs to
enter crash_ipi_callback(). A CPU signifies its entry to
crash_ipi_callback() by setting its corresponding bit in the
cpus_in_crash bit array. After 10 sec, if one or more CPUs have not set
their bit in cpus_in_crash we assume that the CPU(s) is deadlocked. The
operator is then prompted to generate a soft-reset to break the
deadlock. Each CPU enters the soft reset handler as described above.
Two conditions must be handled at this point:
1) The system crashed because the operator generated a soft-reset. See
2) The system had crashed before the soft-reset was generated ( in the
case of a Panic or oops).
The first CPU to enter crash_kexec() uses the state of the kexec_lock to
determine this state. If kexec_lock is already held then condition 2 is
true and crash_kexec_secondary() is called, else; this CPU is flagged as
the crashing CPU, the kexec_lock is acquired and crash_kexec() proceeds
as described above.
Each additional CPUs responding to the soft-reset will pass through
crash_kexec() to kexec_secondary(). All secondary CPUs call
crash_ipi_callback() readying them self's for the shutdown. When ready
they clear their bit in cpus_in_sr. The crashing CPU waits in
kexec_secondary() until all other CPUs have cleared their bits in
cpus_in_sr. The kexec kernel boot is then started.

During kdump boot, noticed some machines checkstop on dma protection
fault for ongoing DMA left in the first kernel. Instead of initializing
TCE entries in iommu_init() for the kdump boot, this patch fixes this
issue by walking through the each TCE table and checks whether the
entries are in use by the first kernel. If so, reserve those entries by
setting the corresponding bit in tbl->it_map such that these entries
will not be available for the kdump boot.
However it could be possible that all TCE entries might be used up due
to the driver bug that does continuous mapping. My observation is around
1700 TCE entries are used on some systems (Ex: P4) at some point of
time during kdump boot and saving dump (either write into the disk or
sending to remote machine). Hence, this patch will make sure that
minimum of 2048 entries will be available such that kdump boot could be
successful in some cases.

We are pleased to announce "lightweight userspace priority inheritance" (PI)
support for futexes. The following patchset and glibc patch implements it,
ontop of the robust-futexes patchset which is included in 2.6.16-mm1.
We are calling it lightweight for 3 reasons:
- in the user-space fastpath a PI-enabled futex involves no kernel work
(or any other PI complexity) at all. No registration, no extra kernel
calls - just pure fast atomic ops in userspace.
- in the slowpath (in the lock-contention case), the system call and
scheduling pattern is in fact better than that of normal futexes, due to
the 'integrated' nature of FUTEX_LOCK_PI. [more about that further down]
- the in-kernel PI implementation is streamlined around the mutex
abstraction, with strict rules that keep the implementation relatively
simple: only a single owner may own a lock (i.e. no read-write lock
support), only the owner may unlock a lock, no recursive locking, etc.
Priority Inheritance - why, oh why???
-------------------------------------
Many of you heard the horror stories about the evil PI code circling Linux for
years, which makes no real sense at all and is only used by buggy applications
and which has horrible overhead. Some of you have dreaded this very moment,
when someone actually submits working PI code ;-)
So why would we like to see PI support for futexes?
We'd like to see it done purely for technological reasons. We dont think it's
a buggy concept, we think it's useful functionality to offer to applications,
which functionality cannot be achieved in other ways. We also think it's the
right thing to do, and we think we've got the right arguments and the right
numbers to prove that. We also believe that we can address all the
counter-arguments as well. For these reasons (and the reasons outlined below)
we are submitting this patch-set for upstream kernel inclusion.
What are the benefits of PI?
The short reply:
----------------
User-space PI helps achieving/improving determinism for user-space
applications. In the best-case, it can help achieve determinism and
well-bound latencies. Even in the worst-case, PI will improve the statistical
distribution of locking related application delays.
The longer reply:
-----------------
Firstly, sharing locks between multiple tasks is a common programming
technique that often cannot be replaced with lockless algorithms. As we can
see it in the kernel [which is a quite complex program in itself], lockless
structures are rather the exception than the norm - the current ratio of
lockless vs. locky code for shared data structures is somewhere between 1:10
and 1:100. Lockless is hard, and the complexity of lockless algorithms often
endangers to ability to do robust reviews of said code. I.e. critical RT
apps often choose lock structures to protect critical data structures, instead
of lockless algorithms. Furthermore, there are cases (like shared hardware,
or other resource limits) where lockless access is mathematically impossible.
Media players (such as Jack) are an example of reasonable application design
with multiple tasks (with multiple priority levels) sharing short-held locks:
for example, a highprio audio playback thread is combined with medium-prio
construct-audio-data threads and low-prio display-colory-stuff threads. Add
video and decoding to the mix and we've got even more priority levels.
So once we accept that synchronization objects (locks) are an unavoidable fact
of life, and once we accept that multi-task userspace apps have a very fair
expectation of being able to use locks, we've got to think about how to offer
the option of a deterministic locking implementation to user-space.
Most of the technical counter-arguments against doing priority inheritance
only apply to kernel-space locks. But user-space locks are different, there
we cannot disable interrupts or make the task non-preemptible in a critical
section, so the 'use spinlocks' argument does not apply (user-space spinlocks
have the same priority inversion problems as other user-space locking
constructs). Fact is, pretty much the only technique that currently enables
good determinism for userspace locks (such as futex-based pthread mutexes) is
priority inheritance:
Currently (without PI), if a high-prio and a low-prio task shares a lock [this
is a quite common scenario for most non-trivial RT applications], 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.
Implementation:
---------------
As mentioned before, the userspace fastpath of PI-enabled pthread mutexes
involves no kernel work at all - they behave quite similarly to normal
futex-based locks: a 0 value means unlocked, and a value==TID means locked.
(This is the same method as used by list-based robust futexes.) Userspace uses
atomic ops to lock/unlock these mutexes without entering the kernel.
To handle the slowpath, we have added two new futex ops:
FUTEX_LOCK_PI
FUTEX_UNLOCK_PI
If the lock-acquire fastpath fails, [i.e. an atomic transition from 0 to TID
fails], then FUTEX_LOCK_PI is called. The kernel does all the remaining work:
if there is no futex-queue attached to the futex address yet then the code
looks up the task that owns the futex [it has put its own TID into the futex
value], and attaches a 'PI state' structure to the futex-queue. The pi_state
includes an rt-mutex, which is a PI-aware, kernel-based synchronization
object. The 'other' task is made the owner of the rt-mutex, and the
FUTEX_WAITERS bit is atomically set in the futex value. Then this task tries
to lock the rt-mutex, on which it blocks. Once it returns, it has the mutex
acquired, and it sets the futex value to its own TID and returns. Userspace
has no other work to perform - it now owns the lock, and futex value contains
FUTEX_WAITERS|TID.
If the unlock side fastpath succeeds, [i.e. userspace manages to do a TID ->
0 atomic transition of the futex value], then no kernel work is triggered.
If the unlock fastpath fails (because the FUTEX_WAITERS bit is set), then
FUTEX_UNLOCK_PI is called, and the kernel unlocks the futex on the behalf of
userspace - and it also unlocks the attached pi_state->rt_mutex and thus wakes
up any potential waiters.
Note that under this approach, contrary to other PI-futex approaches, there is
no prior 'registration' of a PI-futex. [which is not quite possible anyway,
due to existing ABI properties of pthread mutexes.]
Also, under this scheme, 'robustness' and 'PI' are two orthogonal properties
of futexes, and all four combinations are possible: futex, robust-futex,
PI-futex, robust+PI-futex.
glibc support:
--------------
Ulrich Drepper and Jakub Jelinek have written glibc support for PI-futexes
(and robust futexes), enabling robust and PI (PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT) POSIX
mutexes. (PTHREAD_PRIO_PROTECT support will be added later on too, no
additional kernel changes are needed for that). [NOTE: The glibc patch is
obviously inofficial and unsupported without matching upstream kernel
functionality.]
the patch-queue and the glibc patch can also be downloaded from:
http://redhat.com/~mingo/PI-futex-patches/
Many thanks go to the people who helped us create this kernel feature: Steven
Rostedt, Esben Nielsen, Benedikt Spranger, Daniel Walker, John Cooper, Arjan
van de Ven, Oleg Nesterov and others. Credits for related prior projects goes

Clean up the futex code, before adding more features to it:
- use u32 as the futex field type - that's the ABI
- use __user and pointers to u32 instead of unsigned long
- code style / comment style cleanups
- rename hash-bucket name from 'bh' to 'hb'.
I checked the pre and post futex.o object files to make sure this

Problem:
The introduction of separate run queues per CPU has brought with it "nice"
enforcement problems that are best described by a simple example.
For the sake of argument suppose that on a single CPU machine with a
nice==19 hard spinner and a nice==0 hard spinner running that the nice==0
task gets 95% of the CPU and the nice==19 task gets 5% of the CPU. Now
suppose that there is a system with 2 CPUs and 2 nice==19 hard spinners and
2 nice==0 hard spinners running. The user of this system would be entitled
to expect that the nice==0 tasks each get 95% of a CPU and the nice==19
tasks only get 5% each. However, whether this expectation is met is pretty
much down to luck as there are four equally likely distributions of the
tasks to the CPUs that the load balancing code will consider to be balanced
with loads of 2.0 for each CPU. Two of these distributions involve one
nice==0 and one nice==19 task per CPU and in these circumstances the users
expectations will be met. The other two distributions both involve both
nice==0 tasks being on one CPU and both nice==19 being on the other CPU and
each task will get 50% of a CPU and the user's expectations will not be
met.
Solution:
The solution to this problem that is implemented in the attached patch is
to use weighted loads when determining if the system is balanced and, when
an imbalance is detected, to move an amount of weighted load between run
queues (as opposed to a number of tasks) to restore the balance. Once
again, the easiest way to explain why both of these measures are necessary
is to use a simple example. Suppose that (in a slight variation of the
above example) that we have a two CPU system with 4 nice==0 and 4 nice=19
hard spinning tasks running and that the 4 nice==0 tasks are on one CPU and
the 4 nice==19 tasks are on the other CPU. The weighted loads for the two
CPUs would be 4.0 and 0.2 respectively and the load balancing code would
move 2 tasks resulting in one CPU with a load of 2.0 and the other with
load of 2.2. If this was considered to be a big enough imbalance to
justify moving a task and that task was moved using the current
move_tasks() then it would move the highest priority task that it found and
this would result in one CPU with a load of 3.0 and the other with a load
of 1.2 which would result in the movement of a task in the opposite
direction and so on -- infinite loop. If, on the other hand, an amount of
load to be moved is calculated from the imbalance (in this case 0.1) and
move_tasks() skips tasks until it find ones whose contributions to the
weighted load are less than this amount it would move two of the nice==19
tasks resulting in a system with 2 nice==0 and 2 nice=19 on each CPU with
loads of 2.1 for each CPU.
One of the advantages of this mechanism is that on a system where all tasks
have nice==0 the load balancing calculations would be mathematically
identical to the current load balancing code.
Notes:
struct task_struct:
has a new field load_weight which (in a trade off of space for speed)
stores the contribution that this task makes to a CPU's weighted load when
it is runnable.
struct runqueue:
has a new field raw_weighted_load which is the sum of the load_weight
values for the currently runnable tasks on this run queue. This field
always needs to be updated when nr_running is updated so two new inline
functions inc_nr_running() and dec_nr_running() have been created to make
sure that this happens. This also offers a convenient way to optimize away
this part of the smpnice mechanism when CONFIG_SMP is not defined.
int try_to_wake_up():
in this function the value SCHED_LOAD_BALANCE is used to represent the load
contribution of a single task in various calculations in the code that
decides which CPU to put the waking task on. While this would be a valid
on a system where the nice values for the runnable tasks were distributed
evenly around zero it will lead to anomalous load balancing if the
distribution is skewed in either direction. To overcome this problem
SCHED_LOAD_SCALE has been replaced by the load_weight for the relevant task
or by the average load_weight per task for the queue in question (as
appropriate).
int move_tasks():
The modifications to this function were complicated by the fact that
active_load_balance() uses it to move exactly one task without checking
whether an imbalance actually exists. This precluded the simple
overloading of max_nr_move with max_load_move and necessitated the addition
of the latter as an extra argument to the function. The internal
implementation is then modified to move up to max_nr_move tasks and
max_load_move of weighted load. This slightly complicates the code where
move_tasks() is called and if ever active_load_balance() is changed to not
use move_tasks() the implementation of move_tasks() should be simplified
accordingly.
struct sched_group *find_busiest_group():
Similar to try_to_wake_up(), there are places in this function where
SCHED_LOAD_SCALE is used to represent the load contribution of a single
task and the same issues are created. A similar solution is adopted except
that it is now the average per task contribution to a group's load (as
opposed to a run queue) that is required. As this value is not directly
available from the group it is calculated on the fly as the queues in the
groups are visited when determining the busiest group.
A key change to this function is that it is no longer to scale down
*imbalance on exit as move_tasks() uses the load in its scaled form.
void set_user_nice():
has been modified to update the task's load_weight field when it's nice
value and also to ensure that its run queue's raw_weighted_load field is
updated if it was runnable.

With smpnice, sched groups with highest priority tasks can mask the imbalance
between the other sched groups with in the same domain. This patch fixes some
of the listed down scenarios by not considering the sched groups which are
lightly loaded.
a) on a simple 4-way MP system, if we have one high priority and 4 normal
priority tasks, with smpnice we would like to see the high priority task
scheduled on one cpu, two other cpus getting one normal task each and the
fourth cpu getting the remaining two normal tasks. but with current
smpnice extra normal priority task keeps jumping from one cpu to another
cpu having the normal priority task. This is because of the
busiest_has_loaded_cpus, nr_loaded_cpus logic.. We are not including the
cpu with high priority task in max_load calculations but including that in
total and avg_load calcuations.. leading to max_load < avg_load and load
balance between cpus running normal priority tasks(2 Vs 1) will always show
imbalanace as one normal priority and the extra normal priority task will
keep moving from one cpu to another cpu having normal priority task..
b) 4-way system with HT (8 logical processors). Package-P0 T0 has a
highest priority task, T1 is idle. Package-P1 Both T0 and T1 have 1 normal
priority task each.. P2 and P3 are idle. With this patch, one of the
normal priority tasks on P1 will be moved to P2 or P3..
c) With the current weighted smp nice calculations, it doesn't always make
sense to look at the highest weighted runqueue in the busy group..
Consider a load balance scenario on a DP with HT system, with Package-0
containing one high priority and one low priority, Package-1 containing one
low priority(with other thread being idle).. Package-1 thinks that it need
to take the low priority thread from Package-0. And find_busiest_queue()
returns the cpu thread with highest priority task.. And ultimately(with
help of active load balance) we move high priority task to Package-1. And
same continues with Package-0 now, moving high priority task from package-1
to package-0.. Even without the presence of active load balance, load
balance will fail to balance the above scenario.. Fix find_busiest_queue
to use "imbalance" when it is lightly loaded.

GPIO SUPPORT FOR SCx200 & PC8736x
The patch-set reworks the 2.4 vintage scx200_gpio driver for modern 2.6, and
refactors GPIO support to reuse it in a new driver for the GPIO on PC-8736x
chips. Its handy for the Soekris.com net-4801, which has both chips.
These patches have been seen recently on Kernel-Mentors, and then
Kernel-Newbies ML, where Jesper Juhl kindly reviewed it. His feedback has
been incorporated. Thanks Jesper !
Its also gone to soekris-tech@soekris.com for possible testing by linux folks,
I've gotten 1 promise so far. Theyre mostly BSD folk over there, but we'll
see..
Device-file & Sysfs
The driver preserves the existing device-file interface, including the
write/cmd set, but adds v to 'view' the pin-settings & configs by inducing,
via gpio_dump(), a dev_info() call. Its a fairly crappy way to get status,
but it sticks to the syslog approach, conservatively.
Allowing users to voluntarily trigger logging is good, it gives them a
familiar way to confirm their app's control & use of the pins, and I've thus
reduced the pin-mode-updates from dev_info to dev_dbg.
I've recently bolted on a proto sysfs interface for both new drivers. Im not
including those patches here; they (the patch + doc-pre-patch) are still quite
raw (and unreviewed on KNML), and since they 'invent' a convention for GPIO, a
proper vetting is needed. Since this patchset is much bigger than my previous
ones, Id like to keep things simpler, and address it 1st, before bolting on
more stuff.
The driver-split
The Geode CPU and the PC-87366 Super-IO chip have GPIO units which share a
common pin-architecture (same pin features, with same bits controlling), but
with different addressing mechanics and port organizations.
The vintage driver expresses the pin capabilities with pin-mode commands
[OoPpTt],etc that change the pin configurations, and since the 2 chips share
pin-arch, we can reuse the read(), write() commands, once the implementation
is suitably adjusted.
The patchset adds a vtable: struct nsc_gpio_ops, to abstract the existing gpio
operations, then adjusts fileops.write() code to invoke operations via that
vtable. Driver specific open()s set private_data to the vtable so its
available for use by write().
The vtable gets the gpio_dump() too, since its user-friendly, and (could be
construed as) part of the current device-file interface. To support use of
dev_dbg() in write() & _dump(), the vtable gets a dev ptr too, set by both
scx200 & pc8736x _gpio drivers.
heres how the pins are presented in syslog:

[ 1890.287223] scx200_gpio.0: io01: 0x0003 OE PP PUD EDGE LO
nsc_gpio.c: new file is new home of several file-ops methods, which are
modified to get their vtable from filp->private_data, and use it where needed.
scx200_gpio.c: keeps some of its existing gpio routines, but now wires them up
via the vtable (they're invoked by nsc_gpio.c:nsc_gpio_write() thru this
vtable). A driver-spcific open() initializes filp->private_data with the
vtable.
Once the split is clean, and the scx200_gpio driver is working, we copy and
modify the function and variable names, and rework the access-method bodies
for the different addressing scheme.

Move the i386 VDSO down into a vma and thus randomize it.
Besides the security implications, this feature also helps debuggers, which
can COW a vma-backed VDSO just like a normal DSO and can thus do
single-stepping and other debugging features.
It's good for hypervisors (Xen, VMWare) too, which typically live in the same
high-mapped address space as the VDSO, hence whenever the VDSO is used, they
get lots of guest pagefaults and have to fix such guest accesses up - which
slows things down instead of speeding things up (the primary purpose of the
VDSO).
There's a new CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO (default=y) option, which provides support
for older glibcs that still rely on a prelinked high-mapped VDSO. Newer
distributions (using glibc 2.3.3 or later) can turn this option off. Turning
it off is also recommended for security reasons: attackers cannot use the
predictable high-mapped VDSO page as syscall trampoline anymore.
There is a new vdso=[0|1] boot option as well, and a runtime
/proc/sys/vm/vdso_enabled sysctl switch, that allows the VDSO to be turned
on/off.
(This version of the VDSO-randomization patch also has working ELF
coredumping, the previous patch crashed in the coredumping code.)
This code is a combined work of the exec-shield VDSO randomization
code and Gerd Hoffmann's hypervisor-centric VDSO patch. Rusty Russell
started this patch and i completed it.

Remove the limit of 256 interrupt vectors by changing the value stored in
orig_{e,r}ax to be the complemented interrupt vector. The orig_{e,r}ax
needs to be < 0 to allow the signal code to distinguish between return from
interrupt and return from syscall. With this change applied, NR_IRQS can
be > 256.
Xen extends the IRQ numbering space to include room for dynamically
allocated virtual interrupts (in the range 256-511), which requires a more
permissive interface to do_IRQ.

With Goto-san's patch, we can add new pgdat/node at runtime. I'm now
considering node-hot-add with cpu + memory on ACPI.
I found acpi container, which describes node, could evaluate cpu before
memory. This means cpu-hot-add occurs before memory hot add.
In most part, cpu-hot-add doesn't depend on node hot add. But register_cpu(),
which creates symbolic link from node to cpu, requires that node should be
onlined before register_cpu(). When a node is onlined, its pgdat should be
there.
This patch-set holds off creating symbolic link from node to cpu
until node is onlined.
This removes node arguments from register_cpu().
Now, register_cpu() requires 'struct node' as its argument. But the array of
struct node is now unified in driver/base/node.c now (By Goto's node hotplug
patch). We can get struct node in generic way. So, this argument is not
necessary now.
This patch also guarantees add cpu under node only when node is onlined. It
is necessary for node-hot-add vs. cpu-hot-add patch following this.
Moreover, register_cpu calculates cpu->node_id by cpu_to_node() without regard
to its 'struct node *root' argument. This patch removes it.
Also modify callers of register_cpu()/unregister_cpu, whose args are changed
by register-cpu-remove-node-struct patch.

This is to refresh node_data[] array for ia64. As I mentioned previous
patches, ia64 has copies of information of pgdat address array on each node as
per node data.
At v2 of node_add, this function used stop_machine_run() to update them. (I
wished that they were copied safety as much as possible.) But, in this patch,
this arrays are just copied simply, and set node_online_map bit after
completion of pgdat initialization.
So, kernel must touch NODE_DATA() macro after checking node_online_map().
(Current code has already done it.) This is more simple way for just
hot-add.....
Note : It will be problem when hot-remove will occur,
because, even if online_map bit is set, kernel may
touch NODE_DATA() due to race condition. :-(

When new node becomes enable by hot-add, new sysfs file must be created for

called to create it. In addition, I386's arch_register_node() and a part of
register_nodes() of powerpc are consolidated to register_one_node() as a
generic_code().

This patch allows hot-add memory which is not aligned to section.
Now, hot-added memory has to be aligned to section size. Considering big
section sized archs, this is not useful.
When hot-added memory is registerd as iomem resoruce by iomem resource
patch, we can make use of that information to detect valid memory range.
Note: With this, not-aligned memory can be registerd. To allow hot-add
memory with holes, we have to do more work around add_memory().
(It doesn't allows add memory to already existing mem section.)

For node hotplug, basically we have to allocate new pgdat. But, there are
several types of implementations of pgdat.
1. Allocate only pgdat.
This style allocate only pgdat area.
And its address is recorded in node_data[].
It is most popular style.
2. Static array of pgdat
In this case, all of pgdats are static array.
Some archs use this style.
3. Allocate not only pgdat, but also per node data.
To increase performance, each node has copy of some data as
a per node data. So, this area must be allocated too.
Ia64 is this style. Ia64 has the copies of node_data[] array
on each per node data to increase performance.
In this series of patches, treat (1) as generic arch.
generic archs can use generic function. (2) and (3) should have
its own if necessary.
This patch defines pgdat allocator.
Updating NODE_DATA() macro function is in other patch.

node id can be found by pxm_to_nid_map[].
This patch becomes simpler than v2 of node hot-add patch.
Because old add_memory() function doesn't have node id parameter.

Note: Powerpc's old add_memory() is defined as __devinit. However,

I suppose it may be redundant. But, I'm not well known about powerpc.

x86_64 and i386 behave inconsistently when sending an IPI on vector 2

The crash code was abusing send_IPI_allbutself() by passing a code
instead of a vector, it only worked because crash knew about the
internal code of send_IPI_allbutself(). Change crash to use NMI_VECTOR
instead, and remove the comment about how crash was abusing the function.
This patch is a pre-requisite for fixing the problem where sending an

problem while crash continus to abuse send_IPI_allbutself().
It also removes the inconsistency between i386 and x86_64 for

During some profiling I noticed that default_idle causes a lot of
memory traffic. I think that is caused by the atomic operations
to clear/set the polling flag in thread_info. There is actually
no reason to make this atomic - only the idle thread does it
to itself, other CPUs only read it. So I moved it into ti->status.
Converted i386/x86-64/ia64 for now because that was the easiest
way to fix ACPI which also manipulates these flags in its idle
function.

This patch hooks Calgary into the build, the x86-64 IOMMU
initialization paths, and introduces the Calgary specific bits. The
implementation draws inspiration from both PPC (which has support for
the same chip but requires firmware support which we don't have on
x86-64) and gart. Calgary is different from gart in that it support a
translation table per PHB, as opposed to the single gart aperture.
Changes from previous version:
* Addition of boot-time disablement for bus-level translation/isolation
(e.g, enable userspace DMA for things like X)
* Usage of newer IOMMU abstraction functions

This patch creates a new interface for IOMMUs by adding a centralized
location for IOMMU allocation (for translation tables/apertures) and
IOMMU initialization. In creating these, code was moved around for
abstraction, uniformity, and consiceness.
Take note of the move of the iommu_setup bootarg parsing code to
__setup. This is enabled by moving back the location of the aperture
allocation/detection to mem init (which while ugly, was already the
location of the swiotlb_init).
While a slight departure from the previous patch, I belive this provides
the true intention of the previous versions of the patch which changed
this code. It also makes the addition of the upcoming calgary code much
cleaner than previous patches.

Changes are largely identical to the i386 version:

* two new elf sections simliar to the "classic" alternatives to

* fixup headers to use alternative.h instead of defining their own
LOCK / LOCK_PREFIX macros.
The patch reuses the i386 version of the alternatives code to avoid code
duplication. The code in alternatives.c was shuffled around a bit to
reduce the number of #ifdefs needed. It also got some tweaks needed for

- record the 'event' count on each individual device (they
might sometimes be slightly different now)
- add a new value for 'sb_dirty': '3' means that the super
block only needs to be updated to record a clean<->dirty
transition.
- Prefer odd event numbers for dirty states and even numbers
for clean states
- Using all the above, don't update the superblock on
a spare device if the update is just doing a clean-dirty
transition. To accomodate this, a transition from
dirty back to clean might now decrement the events counter
if nothing else has changed.
The net effect of this is that spare drives will not see any IO requests
during normal running of the array, so they can go to sleep if that is what
they want to do.

If md is asked to store a bitmap in a file, it tries to hold onto the page
cache pages for that file, manipulate them directly, and call a cocktail of
operations to write the file out. I don't believe this is a supportable
approach.
This patch changes the approach to use the same approach as swap files. i.e.
bmap is used to enumerate all the block address of parts of the file and we
write directly to those blocks of the device.
swapfile only uses parts of the file that provide a full pages at contiguous
addresses. We don't have that luxury so we have to cope with pages that are
non-contiguous in storage. To handle this we attach buffers to each page, and
store the addresses in those buffers.
With this approach the pagecache may contain data which is inconsistent with
what is on disk. To alleviate the problems this can cause, md invalidates the
pagecache when releasing the file. If the file is to be examined while the
array is active (a non-critical but occasionally useful function), O_DIRECT io
must be used. And new version of mdadm will have support for this.
This approach simplifies a lot of code:
- we no longer need to keep a list of pages which we need to wait for,
as the b_endio function can keep track of how many outstanding
writes there are. This saves a mempool.
- -EAGAIN returns from write_page are no longer possible (not sure if
they ever were actually).

The control for binding/unbinding is moved from fbcon to the console layer.
Thus the fbcon sysfs attributes, attach and detach, are also gone.
1. Add a notifier event that tells fbcon if a framebuffer driver has been
unregistered. If no registered driver remains, fbcon will unregister
itself from the console layer.
2. Replaced calls to give_up_console() with unregister_con_driver().
3. Still use take_over_console() instead of register_con_driver() to
maintain compatibility
4. Respect the parameter first_fb_vc and last_fb_vc instead of using 0 and
MAX_NR_CONSOLES - 1. These parameters are settable by the user.
5. When fbcon is completely unbound from the console layer, fbcon will
also release (iow, decrement module reference counts to zero) all fbdev
drivers. In other words, a bind or unbind request from the console layer
will propagate down to the framebuffer drivers.
6. If fbcon is not bound to the console, it will ignore all notifier
events (except driver registration and unregistration) and all sysfs
requests.

The framebuffer console is now able to dynamically bind and unbind from the VT
console layer. Due to the way the VT console layer works, the drivers
themselves decide when to bind or unbind. However, it was decided that
binding must be controlled, not by the drivers themselves, but by the VT
console layer. With this, dynamic binding is possible for all VT console
drivers, not just fbcon.
Thus, the VT console layer will impose the following to all VT console
drivers:
- all registered VT console drivers will be entered in a private list
- drivers can register themselves to the VT console layer, but they cannot
decide when to bind or unbind. (Exception: To maintain backwards
compatibility, take_over_console() will automatically bind the driver after
registration.)
- drivers can remove themselves from the list by unregistering from the VT
console layer. A prerequisite for unregistration is that the driver must not
be bound.
The following functions are new in the vt.c:
register_con_driver() - public function, this function adds the VT console
driver to an internal list maintained by the VT console
bind_con_driver() - private function, it binds the driver to the console
take_over_console() is changed to call register_con_driver() followed by a
bind_con_driver(). This is the only time drivers can decide when to bind to
the VT layer. This is to maintain backwards compatibility.
unbind_con_driver() - private function, it unbinds the driver from its
console. The vacated consoles will be taken over by the default boot console
driver.
unregister_con_driver() - public function, removes the driver from the
internal list maintained by the VT console. It will only succeed if the
driver is currently unbound.
con_is_bound() checks if the driver is currently bound or not
give_up_console() is just a wrapper to unregister_con_driver().
There are also 3 additional functions meant to be called only by the tty layer
for sysfs control:
vt_bind() - calls bind_con_driver()
vt_unbind() - calls unbind_con_driver()
vt_show_drivers() - shows the list of registered drivers
Most VT console drivers will continue to work as is, but might have problems
when unbinding or binding which should be fixable with minimal changes.

directory or file is opened and remains open after the the task exits this
pinning continues. With 8K stacks on a 32bit machine the amount pinned per
file descriptor is about 10K.
Normally I would figure a reasonable per user process limit is about 100
processes. With 80 processes, with a 1000 file descriptors each I can trigger
the 00M killer on a 32bit kernel, because I have pinned about 800MB of useless
data.
This patch replaces the struct task_struct pointer with a pointer to a struct
task_ref which has a struct task_struct pointer. The so the pinning of dead
tasks does not happen.
The code now has to contend with the fact that the task may now exit at any
time. Which is a little but not muh more complicated.
With this change it takes about 1000 processes each opening up 1000 file
descriptors before I can trigger the OOM killer. Much better.

To keep the dcache from filling up with dead /proc entries we flush them on
process exit. However over the years that code has gotten hairy with a
dentry_pointer and a lock in task_struct and misdocumented as a correctness
feature.
I have rewritten this code to look and see if we have a corresponding entry in
the dcache and if so flush it on process exit. This removes the extra fields
in the task_struct and allows me to trivially handle the case of a
/proc/<tgid>/task/<pid> entry as well as the current /proc/<pid> entries.

Currently in the do_page_fault() code path, we call notify_die(DIE_PAGE_FAULT,
...) to notify the page fault. Since notify_die() is highly overloaded, this
page fault notification is currently being sent to all the components
registered with register_die_notification() which uses the same die_chain to
loop for all the registered components which is unnecessary.
In order to optimize the do_page_fault() code path, this critical page fault
notification is now moved to different call chain and the test results showed
great improvements.
And the kprobes which is interested in this notifications, now registers onto
this new call chain only when it need to, i.e Kprobes now registers for page
fault notification only when their are an active probes and unregisters from
this page fault notification when no probes are active.
I have incorporated all the feedback given by Ananth and Keith and everyone,
and thanks for all the review feedback.

Instead of incrementing xtime by tick_nsec + ntp adjustments, use the
clocksource abstraction to increment and scale time. Using the clocksource
abstraction allows other clocksources to be used consistently in the face of
late or lost ticks, while preserving the existing behavior via the jiffies
clocksource.
This removes the need to keep time_phase adjustments as we just use the
current_tick_length() function as the NTP interface and accumulate time using
shifted nanoseconds.
The basics of this design was by Roman Zippel, however it is my own

sd: "good_bytes" computation is always done in terms of the resolution
of the device's medium, since after that it is the number of good bytes
we pass around and other layers/contexts (as opposed ot sd) can translate
that to their own resolution (block layer:512). It also makes
scsi_io_completion() processing more straightforward, eliminating the

This patch adds the hooks cra_init/cra_exit which are called during a tfm's

For now this lets us get rid of the coa_init/coa_exit functions which are
used for exactly that purpose (unlike the dia_init function which is called
for each transaction).
In fact the coa_exit path is currently buggy as it may get called twice
when an error is encountered during initialisation.

Up until now algorithms have been happy to get a context pointer since
they know everything that's in the tfm already (e.g., alignment, block
size).
However, once we have parameterised algorithms, such information will
be specific to each tfm. So the algorithm API needs to be changed to
pass the tfm structure instead of the context pointer.
This patch is basically a text substitution. The only tricky bit is
the assembly routines that need to get the context pointer offset
through asm-offsets.h.

The netpoll system currently has a rx to tx path via:

This rx->tx loop places network drivers at risk of inadvertently causing a
deadlock or BUG halt by recursively trying to acquire a spinlock that is

to me in the 3c59x driver, which shares a spinlock between the

In current 2.6.17 implementation, signal_struct refered from task_struct is
used for per-process data structure. The pacct facility also uses it as a
per-process data structure to store stime, utime, minflt, majflt. But those
members are saved in __exit_signal(). It's too late.
For example, if some threads exits at same time, pacct facility has a
possibility to drop accountings for a part of those threads. (see, the
following 'The results of original 2.6.17 kernel') I think accounting
information should be completely collected into the per-process data structure
before writing out an accounting record.
This patch fixes this matter. Accumulation of stime, utime, minflt and majflt
are done before generating accounting record.

When pacct facility generate an 'ac_flag' field in accounting record, it
refers a task_struct of the thread which died last in the process. But any
other task_structs are ignored.
Therefore, pacct facility drops ASU flag even if root-privilege operations are
used by any other threads except the last one. In addition, AFORK flag is
always set when the thread of group-leader didn't die last, although this
process has called execve() after fork().
We have a same matter in ac_exitcode. The recorded ac_exitcode is an exit
code of the last thread in the process. There is a possibility this exitcode
is not the group leader's one.
The pacct facility need an i/o operation when an accounting record is
generated. There is a possibility to wake OOM killer up. If OOM killer is
activated, it kills some processes to make them release process memory
regions.
But acct_process() is called in the killed processes context before calling
exit_mm(), so those processes cannot release own memory. In the results, any
processes stop in this point and it finally cause a system stall.

When the linkat() syscall was added the flag parameter was added in the
last minute but it wasn't used so far. The following patch should change
that. My tests show that this is all that's needed.
If OLDNAME is a symlink setting the flag causes linkat to follow the
symlink and create a hardlink with the target. This is actually the
behavior POSIX demands for link() as well but Linux wisely does not do
this. With this flag (which will most likely be in the next POSIX
revision) the programmer can choose the behavior, defaulting to the safe
variant. As a side effect it is now possible to implement a
POSIX-compliant link(2) function for those who are interested.
touch file
ln -s file symlink
linkat(fd, "symlink", fd, "newlink", 0)
-> newlink is hardlink of symlink
linkat(fd, "symlink", fd, "newlink", AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW)
-> newlink is hardlink of file
The value of AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW is determined by the definition we already
use in glibc.

I'm testing glibc on MIPS64, little-endian, N32, O32 and N64 multilibs.
Among the NPTL test failures seen are some arising from sigsuspend problems
for N32: it blocks the wrong signals, so SIGCANCEL (SIGRTMIN) is blocked
despite glibc's carefully excluding it from sets of signals to block.
Specifically, testing suggests it blocks signal N^32 instead of signal N,
so (in the example tested) blocking SIGUSR1 (17) blocks signal 49 instead.
glibc's sigset_t uses an array of unsigned long, as does the kernel.
In both cases, signal N+1 is represented as
(1UL << (N % (8 * sizeof (unsigned long)))) in word number
(N / (8 * sizeof (unsigned long))).
Thus the N32 glibc uses an array of 32-bit words and the N64 kernel uses an
array of 64-bit words. For little-endian, the layout is the same, with
signals 1-32 in the first 4 bytes, signals 33-64 in the second, etc.; for
big-endian, userspace has that layout while in the kernel each 8 bytes have
the two halves swapped from the userspace layout.
The N32 sigsuspend syscall uses sigset_from_compat to convert the userspace
sigset to kernel format. If __COMPAT_ENDIAN_SWAP__ is *not* set, this uses
logic of the form
set->sig[0] = compat->sig[0] | (((long)compat->sig[1]) << 32 )
to convert the userspace sigset to a kernel one. This looks correct to me
for both big and little endian, given that in userspace compat->sig[1] will
represent signals 33-64, and so will the high 32 bits of set->sig[0] in the
kernel. If however __COMPAT_ENDIAN_SWAP__ *is* set, as it is for
__MIPSEL__, it uses
set->sig[0] = compat->sig[1] | (((long)compat->sig[0]) << 32 );
which seems incorrect for both big and little endian, and would
explain the observed symptoms.
This code is the only use of __COMPAT_ENDIAN_SWAP__, so if incorrect
then that macro serves no purpose, in which case something like the
following patch would seem appropriate to remove it.

This patch adds support for the v3020 RTC from EM Microelectronic.
The v3020 RTC is designed to be connected on a bus using only one data bit.
Since any data bit may be used, it is necessary to specify this to the
driver by passing a struct v3020_platform_data pointer (see
include/linux/rtc-v3020.h) to the driver.
Part of the following code comes from the kernel patchs produced by
Compulab for their products. The original file (available here:

A few days ago Arjan signaled a lockdep red flag on epoll locks, and
precisely between the epoll's device structure lock (->lock) and the wait
queue head lock (->lock).
Like I explained in another email, and directly to Arjan, this can't happen
in reality because of the explicit check at eventpoll.c:592, that does not
allow to drop an epoll fd inside the same epoll fd. Since lockdep is
working on per-structure locks, it will never be able to know of policies
enforced in other parts of the code.
It was decided time ago of having the ability to drop epoll fds inside
other epoll fds, that triggers a very trick wakeup operations (due to
possibly reentrant callback-driven wakeups) handled by the
ep_poll_safewake() function. While looking again at the code though, I
noticed that all the operations done on the epoll's main structure wait
queue head (->wq) are already protected by the epoll lock (->lock), so that
locked-style functions can be used to manipulate the ->wq member. This
makes both a lock-acquire save, and lockdep happy.

Some of the in-kernel ext3 block variable type are treated as signed 4 bytes
int type, thus limited ext3 filesystem to 8TB (4kblock size based). While
trying to fix them, it seems quite confusing in the ext3 code where some
blocks are filesystem-wide blocks, some are group relative offsets that need
to be signed value (as -1 has special meaning). So it seem saner to define
two types of physical blocks: one is filesystem wide blocks, another is
group-relative blocks. The following patches clarify these two types of
blocks in the ext3 code, and fix the type bugs which limit current 32 bit ext3
filesystem limit to 8TB.
With this series of patches and the percpu counter data type changes in the mm
tree, we are able to extend exts filesystem limit to 16TB.
This work is also a pre-request for the recent >32 bit ext3 work, and makes
the kernel to able to address 48 bit ext3 block a lot easier: Simply redefine
ext3_fsblk_t from unsigned long to sector_t and redefine the format string for
ext3 filesystem block corresponding.
Two RFC with a series patches have been posted to ext2-devel list and have
been reviewed and discussed:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ext2-devel&m=114722190816690&w=2http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ext2-devel&m=114784919525942&w=2
Patches are tested on both 32 bit machine and 64 bit machine, <8TB ext3 and
>8TB ext3 filesystem(with the latest to be released e2fsprogs-1.39). Tests
includes overnight fsx, tiobench, dbench and fsstress.
This patch:
Defines ext3_fsblk_t and ext3_grpblk_t, and the printk format string for
filesystem wide blocks.
This patch classifies all block group relative blocks, and ext3_fsblk_t blocks
occurs in the same function where used to be confusing before. Also include
kernel bug fixes for filesystem wide in-kernel block variables. There are
some fileystem wide blocks are treated as int/unsigned int type in the kernel
currently, especially in ext3 block allocation and reservation code. This
patch fixed those bugs by converting those variables to ext3_fsblk_t(unsigned
long) type.

As described in a previous patch and documented in mm/filemap.h,
copy_from_user_inatomic* shouldn't zero out the tail of the buffer after an
incomplete copy.
This patch implements that change for i386.
For the _nocache version, a new __copy_user_intel_nocache is defined similar
to copy_user_zeroio_intel_nocache, and this is ultimately used for the copy.
For the regular version, __copy_from_user_ll_nozero is defined which uses
__copy_user and __copy_user_intel - the later needs casts to reposition the
__user annotations.
If copy_from_user_atomic is given a constant length of 1, 2, or 4, then we do
still zero the destintion on failure. This didn't seem worth the effort of
fixing as the places where it is used really don't care.

The problem is that when we write to a file, the copy from userspace to
pagecache is first done with preemption disabled, so if the source address is
not immediately available the copy fails *and* *zeros* *the* *destination*.
This is a problem because a concurrent read (which admittedly is an odd thing
to do) might see zeros rather that was there before the write, or what was
there after, or some mixture of the two (any of these being a reasonable thing
to see).
If the copy did fail, it will immediately be retried with preemption
re-enabled so any transient problem with accessing the source won't cause an
error.
The first copying does not need to zero any uncopied bytes, and doing so
causes the problem. It uses copy_from_user_atomic rather than copy_from_user
so the simple expedient is to change copy_from_user_atomic to *not* zero out
bytes on failure.
The first of these two patches prepares for the change by fixing two places
which assume copy_from_user_atomic does zero the tail. The two usages are
very similar pieces of code which copy from a userspace iovec into one or more
page-cache pages. These are changed to remove the assumption.
The second patch changes __copy_from_user_inatomic* to not zero the tail.
Once these are accepted, I will look at similar patches of other architectures
where this is important (ppc, mips and sparc being the ones I can find).
This patch:
There is a problem with __copy_from_user_inatomic zeroing the tail of the
buffer in the case of an error. As it is called in atomic context, the error
may be transient, so it results in zeros being written where maybe they
shouldn't be.
In the usage in filemap, this opens a window for a well timed read to see data
(zeros) which is not consistent with any ordering of reads and writes.
Most cases where __copy_from_user_inatomic is called, a failure results in
__copy_from_user being called immediately. As long as the latter zeros the
tail, the former doesn't need to. However in *copy_from_user_iovec
implementations (in both filemap and ntfs/file), it is assumed that
copy_from_user_inatomic will zero the tail.
This patch removes that assumption, so that after this patch it will
be safe for copy_from_user_inatomic to not zero the tail.
This patch also adds some commentary to filemap.h and asm-i386/uaccess.h.
After this patch, all architectures that might disable preempt when
kmap_atomic is called need to have their __copy_from_user_inatomic* "fixed".
This includes
- powerpc
- i386
- mips
- sparc

This is a patch from Alan that fixes a real ide-cd.c regression causing
bogus "Media Check" failures for perfectly valid Fedora install ISOs, on
certain CD-ROM drives.
This is a forward port to 2.6.16 (from RHEL) of the minimal changes for the
end of media problem. It may not be sufficient for some controllers
(promise notably) and it does not touch the locking so the error path
locking is as horked as in mainstream.

kernel, the patched kernel interpreted the error condition correctly with
512 byte granularity:
hdc: command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdc: command error: error=0x54 { AbortedCommand LastFailedSense=0x05 }
ide: failed opcode was: unknown
ATAPI device hdc:
Error: Illegal request -- (Sense key=0x05)
Illegal mode for this track or incompatible medium -- (asc=0x64, ascq=0x00)
The failed "Read 10" packet command was:

Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 163260
Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 163261
Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 163262
the unpatched kernel produces an incorrect error dump:
hdc: command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdc: command error: error=0x54 { AbortedCommand LastFailedSense=0x05 }
ide: failed opcode was: unknown
end_request: I/O error, dev hdc, sector 1306080

Currently printk is no use for early debugging because it refuses to
actually print anything to the console unless
cpu_online(smp_processor_id()) is true.
The stated explanation is that console drivers may require per-cpu
resources, or otherwise barf, because the system is not yet setup
correctly. Fair enough.
However some console drivers might be quite happy running early during
boot, in fact we have one, and so it'd be nice if printk understood that.
So I added a flag (which I would have called CON_BOOT, but that's taken)
called CON_ANYTIME, which indicates that a console is happy to be called
anytime, even if the cpu is not yet online.
Tested on a Power 5 machine, with both a CON_ANYTIME driver and a bogus
console driver that BUG()s if called while offline. No problems AFAICT.

First of all some necessary notes about UFS by it self: To avoid waste of disk
space the tail of file consists not from blocks (which is ordinary big enough,
16K usually), it consists from fragments(which is ordinary 2K). When file is
growing its tail occupy 1 fragment, 2 fragments... At some stage decision to
allocate whole block is made and all fragments are moved to one block.
How this situation was handled before:
ufs_prepare_write
->block_prepare_write
->ufs_getfrag_block
->...
->ufs_new_fragments:
bh = sb_bread
bh->b_blocknr = result + i;
mark_buffer_dirty (bh);
This is wrong solution, because:
- it didn't take into consideration that there is another cache: "inode page
cache"
- because of sb_getblk uses not b_blocknr, (it uses page->index) to find
certain block, this breaks sb_getblk.
How this situation is handled now: we go though all "page inode cache", if
there are no such page in cache we load it into cache, and change b_blocknr.

There are several instances of per_cpu(foo, raw_smp_processor_id()), which
is semantically equivalent to __get_cpu_var(foo) but without the warning
that smp_processor_id() can give if CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled. For
those architectures with optimized per-cpu implementations, namely ia64,
powerpc, s390, sparc64 and x86_64, per_cpu() turns into more and slower
code than __get_cpu_var(), so it would be preferable to use __get_cpu_var
on those platforms.
This defines a __raw_get_cpu_var(x) macro which turns into per_cpu(x,
raw_smp_processor_id()) on architectures that use the generic per-cpu
implementation, and turns into __get_cpu_var(x) on the architectures that
have an optimized per-cpu implementation.

Clean up and refactor i386 sub-architecture setup.
This change moves all the code from the
asm-i386/mach-*/setup_arch_pre/post.h headers, into
arch/i386/mach-*/setup.c. mach-*/setup_arch_pre.h is renamed to
setup_arch.h, and contains only things which should be in header files. It
is purely code-motion; there should be no functional changes at all.
Several functions in arch/i386/kernel/setup.c needed to be made non-static
so that they're visible to the code in mach-*/setup.c. asm-i386/setup.h is
used to hold the prototypes for these functions.

Hooks for calling vma specific migration functions
With this patch a vma may define a vma->vm_ops->migrate function. That
function may perform page migration on its own (some vmas may not contain page
structs and therefore cannot be handled by regular page migration. Pages in a
vma may require special preparatory treatment before migration is possible
etc) . Only mmap_sem is held when the migration function is called. The
migrate() function gets passed two sets of nodemasks describing the source and
the target of the migration. The flags parameter either contains
MPOL_MF_MOVE which means that only pages used exclusively by
the specified mm should be moved
or
MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL which means that pages shared with other processes
should also be moved.
The migration function returns 0 on success or an error condition. An error
condition will prevent regular page migration from occurring.
On its own this patch cannot be included since there are no users for this
functionality. But it seems that the uncached allocator will need this
functionality at some point.

remap_pfn_range() already sets VM_IO. There is no need to set VM_SHM since
it does nothing. VM_LOCKED is of no use since the remap_pfn_range does not
place pages on the LRU. The pages are therefore never subject to swap
anyways. Remove all the vm_flags settings before calling remap_pfn_range.

Several functions have now been added to v4l2-common to do things like

user apps that try to include videodev2.h (e.g., ekiga) and at least
on ia64, it causes compilation failures since <linux/types.h> doesn't
