5d96551541 [PATCH] ppc64: Fix pages marked dirty abusively
While working on 64K pages, I found this little buglet in our
update_mmu_cache() implementation.

The code calls __hash_page() passing it an "access" parameter (the type
of access that triggers the hash) containing the bits _PAGE_RW and
_PAGE_USER of the linux PTE.  The latter is useless in this case and the
former is wrong.  In fact, if we have a writeable PTE and we pass
_PAGE_RW to hash_page(), it will set _PAGE_DIRTY (since we track dirty
that way, by hash faulting !dirty) which is not what we want.

In fact, the correct fix is to always pass 0. That means that only
read-only or already dirty read write PTEs will be preloaded. The
(hopefully rare) case of a non dirty read write PTE can't be preloaded
this way, it will have to fault in hash_page on the actual access.

a1c7e11193 [PATCH] ppc64: Fix typo in time calculations
This fixes a typo in the div128_by_32 function used in the timekeeping
calculations on ppc64.  If you look at the code it's quite obvious
that we need (rb + c) rather than (rb + b).  The "b" is clearly just a
typo.

05d84681ab [PATCH] powerpc: Fix mmap returning 64 bit addresses
The merge of syscalls.c & sys_ppc32.c (30286ef6e0)
broke mmap, if the mmap returned a 64 bit address.

do_mmap2 was taking the return value from do_mmap_pgoff (an unsigned long), and
storing it in an int, before returning it to sys_mmap as an unsigned long. So
we were losing the high bits of the address.

You would have thought the compiler could catch this for us ...

6cb7bfebb1 [PATCH] powerpc: Merge thread_info.h
Merge ppc32 and ppc64 versions of thread_info.h.  They were pretty
similar already, the chief changes are:

	- Instead of inline asm to implement current_thread_info(),
which needs to be different for ppc32 and ppc64, we use C with an
asm("r1") register variable.  gcc turns it into the same asm as we
used to have for both platforms.
	- We replace ppc32's 'local_flags' with the ppc64
'syscall_noerror' field.  The noerror flag was in fact the only thing
in the local_flags field anyway, so the ppc64 approach is simpler, and
means we only need a load-immediate/store instead of load/mask/store
when clearing the flag.
	- In readiness for 64k pages, when THREAD_SIZE will be less
than a page, ppc64 used kmalloc() rather than get_free_pages() to
allocate the kernel stack.  With this patch we do the same for ppc32,
since there's no strong reason not to.
	- For ppc64, we no longer export THREAD_SHIFT and THREAD_SIZE
via asm-offsets, thread_info.h can now be safely included in asm, as
on ppc32.

ffa29347df [DCCP]: Make dccp_write_xmit always free the packet
icmp_send doesn't use skb->sk at all so even if skb->sk has already
been freed it can't cause crash there (it would've crashed somewhere
else first, e.g., ip_queue_xmit).

I found a double-free on an skb that could explain this though.
dccp_sendmsg and dccp_write_xmit are a little confused as to what
should free the packet when something goes wrong.  Sometimes they
both go for the ball and end up in each other's way.

This patch makes dccp_write_xmit always free the packet no matter
what.  This makes sense since dccp_transmit_skb which in turn comes
from the fact that ip_queue_xmit always frees the packet.

281dd25cdc [PATCH] swiotlb: make sure initial DMA allocations really are in DMA memory
This introduces a limit parameter to the core bootmem allocator; The new
parameter indicates that physical memory allocated by the bootmem
allocator should be within the requested limit.

We also introduce alloc_bootmem_low_pages_limit, alloc_bootmem_node_limit,
alloc_bootmem_low_pages_node_limit apis, but alloc_bootmem_low_pages_limit
is the only api used for swiotlb.

The existing alloc_bootmem_low_pages() api could instead have been
changed and made to pass right limit to the core allocator.  But that
would make the patch more intrusive for 2.6.14, as other arches use
alloc_bootmem_low_pages().  We may be done that post 2.6.14 as a
cleanup.

With this, swiotlb gets memory within 4G for both x86_64 and ia64
arches.

The PF_NOFREEZE process flag should not be inherited when a thread is

This problem is starting to show up more and more as drivers turn to the
kthread API instead of using kernel_thread().  As a result, their kernel
threads are now children of the kthread worker instead of modprobe, and
they inherit the PF_NOFREEZE flag.  This can cause problems during system
suspend; the kernel threads are not getting frozen as they ought to be.

6985c43f39 [PATCH] Three one-liners in md.c
The main problem fixes is that in certain situations stopping md arrays may
take longer than you expect, or may require multiple attempts.  This would
only happen when resync/recovery is happening.

This patch fixes three vaguely related bugs.

1/ The recent change to use kthreads got the setting of the
   process name wrong.  This fixes it.
2/ The recent change to use kthreads lost the ability for
   md threads to be signalled with SIG_KILL.  This restores that.
3/ There is a long standing bug in that if:
    - An array needs recovery (onto a hot-spare) and
    - The recovery is being blocked because some other array being
       recovered shares a physical device and
    - The recovery thread is killed with SIG_KILL
   Then the recovery will appear to have completed with no IO being
   done, which can cause data corruption.
   This patch makes sure that incomplete recovery will be treated as
   incomplete.

Note that any kernel affected by bug 2 will not suffer the problem of bug
3, as the signal can never be delivered.  Thus the current 2.6.14-rc
kernels are not susceptible to data corruption.  Note also that if arrays
are shutdown (with "mdadm -S" or "raidstop") then the problem doesn't
occur.  It only happens if a SIGKILL is independently delivered as done by
'init' when shutting down.

In raw1394.c:handle_iso_listen(), don't grab host_info_lock at all -- we're
not accessing host_info_list or host_count, and holding this lock while
trying to tasklet_kill the iso tasklet this can cause an ABBA deadlock if
ohci:dma_rcv_tasklet is running and tries to grab host_info_lock in
raw1394.c:receive_iso.  Test program attached reliably deadlocks all SMP
machines I have been able to test without this patch.

1c59827d1d [PATCH] mm: hugetlb truncation fixes
hugetlbfs allows truncation of its files (should it?), but hugetlb.c often
forgets that: crashes and misaccounting ensue.

copy_hugetlb_page_range better grab the src page_table_lock since we don't
want to guess what happens if concurrently truncated.  unmap_hugepage_range
rss accounting must not assume the full range was mapped.  follow_hugetlb_page
must guard with page_table_lock and be prepared to exit early.

Restyle copy_hugetlb_page_range with a for loop like the others there.

e03d13e985 [PATCH] Fix cpu timers exit deadlock and races
Oleg Nesterov reported an SMP deadlock.  If there is a running timer
tracking a different process's CPU time clock when the process owning
the timer exits, we deadlock on tasklist_lock in posix_cpu_timer_del via
exit_itimers.

That code was using tasklist_lock to check for a race with __exit_signal
being called on the timer-target task and clearing its ->signal.
However, there is actually no such race.  __exit_signal will have called
posix_cpu_timers_exit and posix_cpu_timers_exit_group before it does
that.  Those will clear those k_itimer's association with the dying
task, so posix_cpu_timer_del will return early and never reach the code
in question.

In addition, posix_cpu_timer_del called from exit_itimers during execve
or directly from timer_delete in the process owning the timer can race
with an exiting timer-target task to cause a double put on timer-target
task struct.  Make sure we always access cpu_timers lists with sighand
lock held.

3d904eef54 [PATCH] ppc32: replace use of _GLOBAL with .globl for ppc32
The _GLOBAL() macro is for text symbols only. Changed to using
.globl for .data symbols.  This is also needed in ppc32 land
to allow FSL Book-E, 40x, and 44x to work.
