8243126c5e [NET]: Make second arg to skb_reserved() signed.
Some subsystems, such as PPP, can send negative values
here.  It just happened to work correctly on 32-bit with
an unsigned value, but on 64-bit this explodes.

Figured out by Paul Mackerras based upon several PPP crash
reports.

2ddb55f091 [PATCH] x86_64: Fix VSMP build
Patch fixes a build problem with CONFIG_X86_VSMP.  The vSMP bits probably

gathered some fuzz on its way to mainline, and safe_halt() which was outside
the #endif (CONFIG_X86_VSMP) somehow got inside the !CONFIG_X86_VSMP condition,
hence being undefined and breaking CONFIG_X86_VSMP builds.  Patch takes
safe_halt() and halt() macros out of the #endif

8817210d4d [PATCH] x86_64: Flexmap for 32bit and randomized mappings for 64bit
Another try at this.

For 32bit follow the 32bit implementation from Ingo -
mappings are growing down from the end of stack now
and vary randomly by 1GB.

Randomized mappings for 64bit just vary the normal mmap break
by 1TB. I didn't bother implementing full flex mmap for 64bit
because it shouldn't be needed there.

36ddf31b68 [PATCH] sh: Simplistic clock framework
This adds a relatively simplistic clock framework for sh.  The initial goal
behind this is to clean up the arch/sh/kernel/time.c mess and to get the CPU
subtype-specific frequency setting and calculation code moved somewhere more
sensible.

This only deals with the core clocks at the moment, though it's trivial for
other drivers to define their own clocks as desired.

b66c1a3919 [PATCH] sh: I/O routine cleanups and ioremap() overhaul
This introduces a few changes in the way that the I/O routines are defined on
SH, specifically so that things like the iomap API properly wrap through the
machvec for board-specific quirks.

In addition to this, the old p3_ioremap() work is converted to a more generic
__ioremap() that will map through the PMB if it's available, or fall back on
page tables for everything else.

An alpha-like IO_CONCAT is also added so we can start to clean up the
board-specific io.h mess, which will be handled in board update patches..

bf3a00f88c [PATCH] sh: IRQ handler updates
This moves the various IRQ controller drivers into a new subdirectory, and
also extends the INTC2 IRQ handler to also deal with SH7760 and SH7780
interrupts, rather than just ST-40.

The old CONFIG_SH_GENERIC has also been removed from the IRQ definitions, as
new ports are expected to be based off of CONFIG_SH_UNKNOWN.  Since there are
plenty of incompatible machvecs, CONFIG_SH_GENERIC doesn't make sense anymore.

96419b7c4d [PATCH] fix arm26 THREAD_SIZE
arm26 currently has a 256 kB THREAD_SIZE (sic).

Looking at the comment in the code, this seems to be based on a
misunderstanding.

The comment says:
this needs attention (see kernel/fork.c which gets a nice div by zero if
this is lower than 8*32768

kernel/fork.c does:
  max_threads = mempages / (8 * THREAD_SIZE / PAGE_SIZE)

Therefore, a division by 0 is impossible for all reasonable cases with
THREAD_SIZE >= PAGE_SIZE.

Since the minimum PAGE_SIZE Linux uses on the arm26 architecture is 16k,
PAGE_SIZE should be sufficient for THREAD_SIZE.

27487d4471 V4L/DVB (3384): Separate tv & radio freqs, fix cb/freq transmit order for tuners that need this.
- Moved MSP_SET_MATRIX to v4l2-common.h
- Fix typos and integer overflows in tea5767.c
- Split old freq field into a tv_freq and a radio_freq. Prevents
  that a radio tuner is initialized with a tv frequency or vice versa.
- When switching to radio mode initialize the tuner with the last
  used radio frequency (this was already done for the TV mode).
  As a result of these changes the tuner module now remembers the
  last set radio and TV frequencies, which is what you would expect
  to happen.
- Move out of range frequencies to the closest valid frequency as per
  v4l2 API spec.
- Fix incorrect initial radio frequency (multiplier is 16000, not 16)
- Add boundary check for out of range frequencies.
- Use new flag to check if the order of the CB and freq. depends on
  the last set frequency. That is needed for some tuners or you can
  get static as a result. The flag is added for those tuners where I know
  that the datasheet indicates that this is necessary.
- For this new check use the last set div value, not the last frequency
  as radio frequencies are always much higher due to the 16000 multiplier.

There is no change in behavior by this patch, since "inline" currently is

505970b96e [PATCH] cpuset oom lock fix
The problem, reported in:

  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5859

and by various other email messages and lkml posts is that the cpuset hook
in the oom (out of memory) code can try to take a cpuset semaphore while
holding the tasklist_lock (a spinlock).

One must not sleep while holding a spinlock.

The fix seems easy enough - move the cpuset semaphore region outside the
tasklist_lock region.

This required a few lines of mechanism to implement.  The oom code where
the locking needs to be changed does not have access to the cpuset locks,
which are internal to kernel/cpuset.c only.  So I provided a couple more
cpuset interface routines, available to the rest of the kernel, which

7339ff8302 [PATCH] Add tmpfs options for memory placement policies
Anything that writes into a tmpfs filesystem is liable to disproportionately
decrease the available memory on a particular node.  Since there's no telling
what sort of application (e.g.  dd/cp/cat) might be dropping large files
there, this lets the admin choose the appropriate default behavior for their
site's situation.

Introduce a tmpfs mount option which allows specifying a memory policy and
a second option to specify the nodelist for that policy.  With the default
policy, tmpfs will behave as it does today.  This patch adds support for
preferred, bind, and interleave policies.

The default policy will cause pages to be added to tmpfs files on the node
which is doing the writing.  Some jobs expect a single process to create
and manage the tmpfs files.  This results in a node which has a
significantly reduced number of free pages.

With this patch, the administrator can specify the policy and nodes for
that policy where they would prefer allocations.

This patch was originally written by Brent Casavant and Hugh Dickins.  I
added support for the bind and preferred policies and the mpol_nodelist
mount option.

7b8631b53b [SCSI] iscsi: seperate iscsi interface from setup functions
This is the second version of the patch to address Christoph's comments.
Instead of doing the lib, I just kept everything in scsi_trnapsort_iscsi.c
like the FC and SPI class. This was becuase the driver model and sysfs
class is tied to the session and connection setup so separating did not
buy very much at this time.

The reason for this patch was becuase HW iscsi LLDs like qla4xxx cannot
use the iscsi class becuase the scsi_host was tied to the interface and
class code. This patch just seperates the session from scsi host so
that LLDs that allocate the host per some resource like pci device
can still use the class.

This is also fixes a couple refcount bugs that can be triggered
when users have a sysfs file open, close the session, then
read or write to the file.

e02f3f5922 [SCSI] remove target parent limitiation
When James Smart fixed the issue of the userspace scan atributes
crashing the system with the FC transport class he added a patch to
let the transport class check if the parent is valid for a given
transport class.

When adding support for the integrated raid of fusion sas devices
we ran into a problem with that, as it didn't allow adding virtual
raid volumes without the transport class knowing about it.

So this patch adds a user_scan attribute instead, that takes over from
scsi_scan_host_selected if the transport class sets it and thus lets
the transport class control the user-initiated scanning.  As this
plugs the hole about user-initiated scanning the target_parent hook
goes away and we rely on callers of the scanning routines to do
something sensible.

For SAS this meant I had to switch from a spinlock to a mutex to
synchronize the topology linked lists, in FC they were completely
unsynchronized which seems wrong.

3f2829a315 [ARM] 3105/4: ARM EABI: new syscall entry convention
Patch from Nicolas Pitre

For a while we wanted to change the way syscalls were called on ARM.
Instead of encoding the syscall number in the swi instruction which
requires reading back the instruction from memory to extract that number
and polluting the data cache, it was decided that simply storing the
syscall number into r7 would be more efficient. Since this represents
an ABI change then making that change at the same time as EABI support
is the right thing to do.

It is now expected that EABI user space binaries put the syscall number
into r7 and use "swi 0" to call the kernel. Syscall register argument
are also expected to have "EABI arrangement" i.e. 64-bit arguments
should be put in a pair of registers from an even register number.

Example with long ftruncate64(unsigned int fd, loff_t length):

	legacy ABI:
	- put fd into r0
	- put length into r1-r2
	- use "swi #(0x900000 + 194)" to call the kernel

	new ARM EABI:
	- put fd into r0
	- put length into r2-r3 (skipping over r1)
	- put 194 into r7
	- use "swi 0" to call the kernel

Note that it is important to use 0 for the swi argument as backward
compatibility with legacy ABI user space relies on this.
The syscall macros in asm-arm/unistd.h were also updated to support
both ABIs and implement the right call method automatically.

2dede2d8e9 [ARM] 3102/1: ARM EABI: stack pointer must be 64-bit aligned after a CPU exception
Patch from Nicolas Pitre

The ARM EABI says that the stack pointer has to be 64-bit aligned for
reasons already mentioned in patch #3101 when calling C functions.

We therefore must verify and adjust sp accordingly when taking an
exception from kernel mode since sp might not necessarily be 64-bit
aligned if the exception occurs in the middle of a kernel function.

If the exception occurs while in user mode then no sp fixup is needed as
long as sizeof(struct pt_regs) as well as any additional syscall data
stack space remain multiples of 8.

da2b1cd619 [ARM] 3101/1: ARM EABI: slab memory must be 64-bit aligned
Patch from Nicolas Pitre

Although ARM is still using 32-bit pointers, version 5 and later
versions of the ARM architecture introduced the ldrd and strd
instructions to move 64-bit data which must be 64-bit aligned in memory,
and the EABI includes new constraints on structure data alignment to
allow for the compiler to use those instructions. This means that any
slab allocation must start on a 64-bit boundary which is not equivalent
to BYTES_PER_WORD, especially on those architecture versions that
implements the ldrd/strd instructions.

Overriding the default alignment disables some slab debug features. If
those debug features are really needed then the kernel will have to be
compiled for version 4 of the ARM architecture.

9904f22a72 [PATCH] spi: add spi_bitbang driver
This adds a bitbanging spi master, hooking up to board/adapter-specific glue
code which knows how to set and read the signals (gpios etc).

This code kicks in after the glue code creates a platform_device with the
right platform_data.  That data includes I/O loops, which will usually
come from expanding an inline function (provided in the header).  One goal
is that the I/O loops should be easily optimized down to a few GPIO register
accesses, in common cases, for speed and minimized overhead.

This understands all the currently defined protocol tweaking options in the
SPI framework, and might eventually serve as as reference implementation.

  - different word sizes (1..32 bits)
  - differing clock rates
  - SPI modes differing by CPOL (affecting chip select and I/O loops)
  - SPI modes differing by CPHA (affecting I/O loops)
  - delays (usecs) after transfers
  - temporarily deselecting chips in mid-transfer

A lot of hardware could work with this framework, though common types of
controller can't reach peak performance without switching to a driver
structure that supports pipelining of transfers (e.g.  DMA queues) and maybe
controllers (e.g.  IRQ driven).

  * There's now a "struct spi_driver".  This increase the footprint

    core was previously handling directly.  Documentation and comments
    were updated to match.

  * spi_alloc_master() now does class_device_initialize(), so it can
    at least be refcounted before spi_register_master().  To match,
    spi_register_master() switched over to class_device_add().

  * States explicitly that after transfer errors, spi_devices will be
    deselected.  We want fault recovery procedures to work the same
    for all controller drivers.

  * Minor tweaks:  controller_data no longer points to readonly data;
    prevent some potential cast-from-null bugs with container_of calls;
    clarifies some existing kerneldoc,

ffa458c1bd [PATCH] spi: ads7846 driver
This is a driver for the ADS7846 touchscreen sensor, derived from
the corgi_ts and omap_ts drivers.  Key differences from those two:

  - Uses the new SPI framework (minimalist version)
  - <linux/spi/ads7846.h> abstracts board-specific touchscreen info
  - Sysfs attributes for the temperature and voltage sensors
  - Uses fewer ARM-specific IRQ primitives

The temperature and voltage sensors show up in sysfs like this:

  $ pwd
  /sys/devices/platform/omap-uwire/spi2.0
  $ ls
  bus@          input:event0@ power/        temp1         vbatt
  driver@       modalias      temp0         vaux
  $ cat modalias
  ads7846
  $ cat temp0
  991
  $ cat temp1
  1177
  $

So far only basic testing has been done.  There's a fair amount of hardware
that uses this sensor, and which also runs Linux, which should eventually
be able to use this driver.

One portability note may be of special interest.  It turns out that not all
SPI controllers are happy issuing requests that do things like "write 8 bit
command, read 12 bit response".  Most of them seem happy to handle various
word sizes, so the issue isn't "12 bit response" but rather "different rx
and tx write sizes", despite that being a common MicroWire convention.  So
this version of the driver no longer reads 12 bit native-endian words; it
reads 16-bit big-endian responses, then byteswaps them and shifts the
results to discard the noise.

8ae12a0d85 [PATCH] spi: simple SPI framework
This is the core of a small SPI framework, implementing the model of a
queue of messages which complete asynchronously (with thin synchronous
wrappers on top).

  - It's still less than 2KB of ".text" (ARM).  If there's got to be a
    mid-layer for something so simple, that's the right size budget.  :)

  - The guts use board-specific SPI device tables to build the driver
    model tree.  (Hardware probing is rarely an option.)

  - This version of Kconfig includes no drivers.  At this writing there
    are two known master controller drivers (PXA/SSP, OMAP MicroWire)
    and three protocol drivers (CS8415a, ADS7846, DataFlash) with LKML
    mentions of other drivers in development.

  - No userspace API.  There are several implementations to compare.
    Implement them like any other driver, and bind them with sysfs.

The changes from last version posted to LKML (on 11-Nov-2005) are minor,
and include:

  - One bugfix (removes a FIXME), with the visible effect of making device
    names be "spiB.C" where B is the bus number and C is the chipselect.

  - The "caller provides DMA mappings" mechanism now has kerneldoc, for
    DMA drivers that want to be fancy.

  - Hey, the framework init can be subsys_init.  Even though board init
    logic fires earlier, at arch_init ... since the framework init is
    for driver support, and the board init support uses static init.

  - Various additional spec/doc clarifications based on discussions
    with other folk.  It adds a brief "thank you" at the end, for folk
    who've helped nudge this framework into existence.

As I've said before, I think that "protocol tweaking" is the main support
that this driver framework will need to evolve.

From: Mark Underwood <basicmark@yahoo.com>

  Update the SPI framework to remove a potential priority inversion case by
  reverting to kmalloc if the pre-allocated DMA-safe buffer isn't available.

80f15dc703 powerpc: Provide a suitable AT_PLATFORM value
The glibc folks want to use AT_PLATFORM to select between possible
alternative versions of shared libraries.  This commit makes the kernel
supply an AT_PLATFORM string that indicates what class of processor
we are running on.  Processors with the same set of user-level
instructions and roughly the same instruction scheduling characteristics
are given the same AT_PLATFORM value; for example, 821, 823 and 860
are all reported as "ppc823", and 7447, 7447A, 7448, 7450, 7451, 7455
are all called "ppc7450".

The intention is that the AT_PLATFORM values match the values that
gcc accepts for the -mcpu= option.  For values which are numeric
(e.g. -mcpu=750), "ppc" has been prepended.

This also adds a PPC_FEATURE_BOOKE bit to the AT_HWCAP value and sets
it for the 440 family and the Freescale 85xx family.

6d6e420005 [IA64-SGI] Fix sn_flush_device_kernel & spinlock initialization
This patch separates the sn_flush_device_list struct into kernel and
common (both kernel and PROM accessible) structures.  As it was, if the
size of a spinlock_t changed (due to additional CONFIG options, etc.) the
sal call which populated the sn_flush_device_list structs would erroneously
write data (and cause memory corruption and/or a panic).

This patch does the following:

1.  Removes sn_flush_device_list and adds sn_flush_device_common and
sn_flush_device_kernel.

2.  Adds a new SAL call to populate a sn_flush_device_common struct per
device, not per widget as previously done.

3.  Correctly initializes each device's sn_flush_device_kernel spinlock_t
struct (before it was only doing each widget's first device).

7b0ac9cdd4 V4L/DVB (3359): Redesign tuners struct for maximum flexibility
- Tunertype struct redefined to allow one or more tuner_params structs
  per tuner definition, one for each video standard.
- Each tuner_params struct has an element containing an arbitrary
  amount of tuner_ranges.
  (this is needed for dvb tuners - to be handled later)
- A tuner_range may be referenced by multiple tuner_params structs.
  There are many duplicates in here. Reusing tuner_range structs,
  rather than defining new ones for each tuner, will cut down on
  memory usage, and is preferred when possible.
- tunertype struct contains an element, has_tda988x.
  We must set this for all tunertypes that contain a tda988x
  chip, and then we can remove this setting from the various
  card structs.
- Improves tuners array memory usage efficiency.
- Right now, all tuners are using the first tuner_params[] array element
  for analog mode. In the future, we will be merging similar tuner
  definitions together, such that each tuner definition will have a
  tuner_params struct for each available video standard. At that point,
  the tuner_params[] array element will be chosen based on the video
  standard in use.

eieio is only a store - store ordering. When used to order an unlock
operation loads may leak out of the critical region. This is potentially

We can solve this with an lwsync which orders everything except store - load.

I removed the (now unused) EIEIO_ON_SMP macros and the c versions
isync_on_smp and eieio_on_smp now we dont use them. I also removed some
old comments that were used to identify inline spinlocks in assembly,
they dont make sense now our locks are out of line.

use lwsync.

This saves approximately 500*NR_CPUS bytes of image size and kernel

extra level of dereference in many accesses to the lppaca.

In the process, we change several places that were unnecessarily using

o introduce a new x_tables module

o registration functions for tables, matches and targets are only
  wrappers around x_tables provided functions
o all matches/targets that are used from ip_tables and ip6_tables
  are now implemented as xt_FOOBAR.c files and provide module aliases
  to ipt_FOOBAR and ip6t_FOOBAR
o header files for xt_matches are in include/linux/netfilter/,
  include/linux/netfilter_{ipv4,ipv6} contains compatibility wrappers
  around the xt_FOOBAR.h headers

Based on this patchset we're going to further unify the code,

9fc658763b [PATCH] missing helper - task_stack_page()
Patchset annotates arch/* uses of ->thread_info.  Ones that really are about
access of thread_info of given process are simply switched to
task_thread_info(task); ones that deal with access to objects on stack are
switched to new helper - task_stack_page().  A _lot_ of the latter are
actually open-coded instances of "find where pt_regs are"; those are
consolidated into task_pt_regs(task) (many architectures actually have such
helper already).

Note that these annotations are not mandatory - any code not converted to
these helpers still works.  However, they clean up a lot of places and have
actually caught a number of bugs, so converting out of tree ports would be a
good idea...

As an example of breakage caught by that stuff, see i386 pt_regs mess - we
used to have it open-coded in a bunch of places and when back in April Stas
had fixed a bug in copy_thread(), the rest had been left out of sync.  That
required two followup patches (the latest - just before 2.6.15) _and_ still
had left /proc/*/stat eip field broken.  Try ps -eo eip on i386 and watch the
junk...

This patch:

new helper - task_stack_page(task).  Returns pointer to the memory object
containing task stack; usually thread_info of task sits in the beginning
of that object.

From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

This is the latest version of the scheduler cache-hot-auto-tune patch.

The first problem was that detection time scaled with O(N^2), which is
unacceptable on larger SMP and NUMA systems. To solve this:

- I've added a 'domain distance' function, which is used to cache
  measurement results. Each distance is only measured once. This means
  that e.g. on NUMA distances of 0, 1 and 2 might be measured, on HT
  distances 0 and 1, and on SMP distance 0 is measured. The code walks
  the domain tree to determine the distance, so it automatically follows
  whatever hierarchy an architecture sets up. This cuts down on the boot
  time significantly and removes the O(N^2) limit. The only assumption
  is that migration costs can be expressed as a function of domain
  distance - this covers the overwhelming majority of existing systems,
  and is a good guess even for more assymetric systems.

  [ People hacking systems that have assymetries that break this
    assumption (e.g. different CPU speeds) should experiment a bit with
    the cpu_distance() function. Adding a ->migration_distance factor to
    the domain structure would be one possible solution - but lets first
    see the problem systems, if they exist at all. Lets not overdesign. ]

Another problem was that only a single cache-size was used for measuring
the cost of migration, and most architectures didnt set that variable
up. Furthermore, a single cache-size does not fit NUMA hierarchies with
L3 caches and does not fit HT setups, where different CPUs will often
have different 'effective cache sizes'. To solve this problem:

- Instead of relying on a single cache-size provided by the platform and
  sticking to it, the code now auto-detects the 'effective migration
  cost' between two measured CPUs, via iterating through a wide range of
  cachesizes. The code searches for the maximum migration cost, which
  occurs when the working set of the test-workload falls just below the
  'effective cache size'. I.e. real-life optimized search is done for
  the maximum migration cost, between two real CPUs.

  This, amongst other things, has the positive effect hat if e.g. two
  CPUs share a L2/L3 cache, a different (and accurate) migration cost
  will be found than between two CPUs on the same system that dont share
  any caches.

(The reliable measurement of migration costs is tricky - see the source
for details.)

Furthermore i've added various boot-time options to override/tune
migration behavior.

Firstly, there's a blanket override for autodetection:

	migration_cost=1000,2000,3000

will override the depth 0/1/2 values with 1msec/2msec/3msec values.

Secondly, there's a global factor that can be used to increase (or
decrease) the autodetected values:

	migration_factor=120

will increase the autodetected values by 20%. This option is useful to
tune things in a workload-dependent way - e.g. if a workload is
cache-insensitive then CPU utilization can be maximized by specifying
migration_factor=0.

I've tested the autodetection code quite extensively on x86, on 3
P3/Xeon/2MB, and the autodetected values look pretty good:

Dual Celeron (128K L2 cache):

 ---------------------
 migration cost matrix (max_cache_size: 131072, cpu: 467 MHz):
 ---------------------
           [00]    [01]
 [00]:     -     1.7(1)
 [01]:   1.7(1)    -
 ---------------------
 cacheflush times [2]: 0.0 (0) 1.7 (1784008)
 ---------------------

Here the slow memory subsystem dominates system performance, and even
though caches are small, the migration cost is 1.7 msecs.

Dual HT P4 (512K L2 cache):

 ---------------------
 migration cost matrix (max_cache_size: 524288, cpu: 2379 MHz):
 ---------------------
           [00]    [01]    [02]    [03]
 [00]:     -     0.4(1)  0.0(0)  0.4(1)
 [01]:   0.4(1)    -     0.4(1)  0.0(0)
 [02]:   0.0(0)  0.4(1)    -     0.4(1)
 [03]:   0.4(1)  0.0(0)  0.4(1)    -
 ---------------------
 cacheflush times [2]: 0.0 (33900) 0.4 (448514)
 ---------------------

Here it can be seen that there is no migration cost between two HT
siblings (CPU#0/2 and CPU#1/3 are separate physical CPUs). A fast memory
system makes inter-physical-CPU migration pretty cheap: 0.4 msecs.

8-way P3/Xeon [2MB L2 cache]:

 ---------------------
 migration cost matrix (max_cache_size: 2097152, cpu: 700 MHz):

           [00]    [01]    [02]    [03]    [04]    [05]    [06]    [07]

 [06]:  19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1)    -    19.2(1)
 [07]:  19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1)    -
 ---------------------
 cacheflush times [2]: 0.0 (0) 19.2 (19281756)
 ---------------------

This one has huge caches and a relatively slow memory subsystem - so the
migration cost is 19 msecs.

5388fb1025 [PATCH] powerpc: Avoid potential FP corruption with preempt and UP
Heikki Lindholm pointed out that there was a potential race with the
lazy CPU state (FP, VR, EVR) stuff if preempt is enabled.  The race
is that in the process of restoring FP state on sigreturn, the task
gets preempted by a user task that wants to use the FPU.  It will take
an FP unavailable exception, which will write the current FPU state
to the thread_struct, overwriting the values which sigreturn has
stored.  Note that this can only happen on UP since we don't implement
lazy CPU state on SMP.

The fix is to flush the lazy CPU state before updating the
thread_struct.  To do this we re-use the flush_lazy_cpu_state()
function from process.c.
