c70555b051 [PATCH] rapidio: fix multi-switch enumeration
This patch contains two fixes for RapisIO enumeration logic:

1. Fix enumeration in configurations with multiple switches. The patch adds:

   a. Enumeration of an empty switch.  Empty switch is a switch that
      does not have any endpoint devices attached to it (except host device
      or previous switch in a chain).  New code assigns a phony destination
      ID associated with the switch and sets up corresponding routes.

   b. Adds a second pass to the enumeration to setup routes to
      devices discovered after switch was scanned.

2. Fix enumeration failure when riohdid parameter has non-zero value.
   Current version fails to setup response path to the host when it has
   destination ID other that 0.

4b98d11b40 [PATCH] ifdef ->rchar, ->wchar, ->syscr, ->syscw from task_struct
They are fat: 4x8 bytes in task_struct.
They are uncoditionally updated in every fork, read, write and sendfile.
They are used only if you have some "extended acct fields feature".

And please, please, please, read(2) knows about bytes, not characters,
why it is called "rchar"?

82ddcb0405 [PATCH] extend the set of "__attribute__" shortcut macros
Extend the set of "__attribute__" shortcut macros, and remove identical
(and now superfluous) definitions from a couple of source files.

based on a page at robert love's blog:

	http://rlove.org/log/2005102601

extend the set of shortcut macros defined in compiler-gcc.h with the
following:

#define __packed                       __attribute__((packed))
#define __weak                         __attribute__((weak))
#define __naked                        __attribute__((naked))
#define __noreturn                     __attribute__((noreturn))
#define __pure                         __attribute__((pure))
#define __aligned(x)                   __attribute__((aligned(x)))
#define __printf(a,b)                  __attribute__((format(printf,a,b)))

Once these are in place, it's up to subsystem maintainers to decide if they
want to take advantage of them.  there is already a strong precedent for
using shortcuts like this in the source tree.

The ones that might give people pause are "__aligned" and "__printf", but
shortcuts for both of those are already in use, and in some ways very
confusingly.  note the two very different definitions for a macro named
"ALIGNED":

  drivers/net/sgiseeq.c:#define ALIGNED(x) ((((unsigned long)(x)) + 0xf) & ~(0xf))
  drivers/scsi/ultrastor.c:#define ALIGNED(x) __attribute__((aligned(x)))

also:

  include/acpi/platform/acgcc.h:
    #define ACPI_PRINTF_LIKE(c) __attribute__ ((__format__ (__printf__, c, c+1)))

Given the precedent, then, it seems logical to at least standardize on a
consistent set of these macros.

7be2c7c96a [PATCH] RTC framework driver for CMOS RTCs
This is an "RTC framework" driver for the "CMOS" RTCs which are standard on
PCs and some other platforms.  That's MC146818 compatible silicon.
Advantages of this vs.  drivers/char/rtc.c (use one _or_ the other, only
one will be able to claim the RTC irq) include:

 - This leverages both the new RTC framework and the driver model; both
   PNPACPI and platform device modes are supported.  (A separate patch
   creates a platform device on PCs where PNPACPI isn't configured.)

 - It supports common extensions like longer alarms.  (A separate patch
   exports that information from ACPI through platform_data.)

 - Likewise, system wakeup events use "real driver model support", with
   policy control via sysfs "wakeup" attributes and and using normal rtc
   ioctls to manage wakeup.  (Patch in the works.  The ACPI hooks are
   known; /proc/acpi/alarm can vanish.  Making it work with EFI will
   be a minor challenge to someone with e.g. a MiniMac.)

It's not yet been tested on non-x86 systems, without ACPI, or with HPET.
And the RTC framework will surely have teething pains on "mainstream"
PC-based systems (though must embedded Linux systems use it heavily), not
limited to sorting out the "/dev/rtc0" issue (udev easily tweaked).  Also,
the ALSA rtctimer code doesn't use the new RTC API.

Otherwise, this should be a no-known-regressions replacement for the old
drivers/char/rtc.c driver, and should help the non-embedded distros (and
the new timekeeping code) start to switch to the framework.

Note also that any systems using "rtc-m48t86" are candidates to switch over
to this more functional driver; the platform data is different, and the way
bytes are read is different, but otherwise those chips should be compatible.

d4d23add3a [PATCH] Common compat_sys_sysinfo
I noticed that almost all architectures implemented exactly the same
sys32_sysinfo...  except parisc, where a bug was to be found in handling of
the uptime.  So let's remove a whole whack of code for fun and profit.
Cribbed compat_sys_sysinfo from x86_64's implementation, since I figured it
would be the best tested.

This patch incorporates Arnd's suggestion of not using set_fs/get_fs, but
instead extracting out the common code from sys_sysinfo.

4419d1ac7d [PATCH] relax check for AIX in msdos partition table
The patch to identify AIX disks and ignore them has caused at least one
machine to fail to find the root partition on 2.6.19. The patch is:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/31/117

The problem is some disk formatters do not blow away the first 4 bytes
of the disk. If the disk we are installing to used to have AIX on it,
then the first 4 bytes will still have IBMA in EBCDIC.

The install in question was debian etch. Im not sure what the best fix
is, perhaps the AIX detection code could check more than the first 4
bytes.

The whole partition info for primary partitions is in this block:

  dd if=/dev/sdb count=$(( 4 * 16 )) bs=1 skip=$(( 0x1be ))

All other data do not matter, beside the 0x55aa marker at the end of the
first block.

3678d62f02 [PATCH] add an RCU version of list splicing
This patch is in support of the IPMI driver.  I have tested this with the
IPMI driver changes coming in the next patch.

Add a list_splice_init_rcu() function to splice an RCU-protected list into
another list.  This takes the sync function as an argument, so one would do
something like:

	INIT_LIST_HEAD(&list);
	list_splice_init_rcu(&source, &dest, synchronize_rcu);

The idea being to keep the RCU API proliferation down to a dull roar.

3db5db4fcd [PATCH] use cycle_t instead of u64 in struct time_interpolator
The 32bit and 64bit PARISC Linux kernels suffers from the problem, that the
gettimeofday() call sometimes returns non-monotonic times.

The easiest way to fix this, is to drop the PARISC-specific implementation
and switch over to the generic TIME_INTERPOLATION framework.

But in order to make it even compile on 32bit PARISC, the patch below which
touches the generic Linux code, is mandatory.

More information and the full patch with the parisc-specific changes is included in this thread: http://lists.parisc-linux.org/pipermail/parisc-linux/2006-December/031003.html

As far as I could see, this patch does not change anything for the existing
architectures which use this framework (IA64 and SPARC64), since "cycles_t"
is defined there as unsigned 64bit-integer anyway (which then makes this
patch a no-change for them).

questions about what may have caused the user taint flag to have been set.

For example, they might examine the logs of the realtime JVM to see if the
Java program has used the really silly, stupid, dangerous, and
completely-non-portable direct access to physical memory feature which MUST
be implemented according to the Real-Time Specification for Java (RTSJ).

The PNP framework doesn't export "pnp_bus_type", which is an unfortunate
exception to the policy followed by pretty much every other bus.  I noticed
this when I had to find a device in order to provide its platform_data.

Note that per advice from Arjan, the "export" scope has been been minimized to
avoid the hundred-plus bytes needed to support access from modules.  In this
case, the symbol is only needed by statically linked kernel code that lives
outside the drivers/pnp directory.

individually, but (except for a seeming mistake) identically, in

anyway.  So I propose the following patch which moves the definitions of
the individual line disciplines to linux/tty.h too.

Three of these numbers (N_MASC, N_PROFIBUS_FDL, and N_SMSBLOCK) are unused
in the current kernel, but the patch still keeps the complete set in case
there are plans to use them yet.

37756ced1f [PATCH] avoid one conditional branch in touch_atime()
I added IS_NOATIME(inode) macro definition in include/linux/fs.h, true if
the inode superblock is marked readonly or noatime.

This new macro is then used in touch_atime() instead of separatly testing
MS_RDONLY and MS_NOATIME

4ba4d4c0c5 [PATCH] struct vfsmount: keep mnt_count & mnt_expiry_mark away from mnt_flags
I noticed cache misses in touch_atime() that can be avoided if we keep
mnt_count & mnt_expiry_mark in a different cache line than mnt_flags
(mostly read)

mnt_count & mnt_expiry_mark are modified each time a file is opened/closed
in a file system.

touch_atime() is called each time a file is read, and generally needs to
read mnt_flags.

Other fields of struct vfsmount are mostly read so I chose to move
mnt_count & mnt_expiry_mark at the end of struct vfsmount.  And adding a
comment so that nobody tries to re-arrange fields to fill the holes :)

On 64bits platforms, the new offsetof(mnt_count) is 0xC0
On 32bits platforms, it is 0x60, so I didnot add a
____cacheline_aligned_in_smp because it would have a too big impact on the
size of this object (in particular if CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT=7)

8b6312f4dc [PATCH] vt: refactor console SAK processing
This does several things.
- It moves looking up of the current foreground console into process
  context where we can safely take the semaphore that protects this
  operation.
- It uses the new flavor of work queue processing.
- This generates a factor of do_SAK, __do_SAK that runs immediately.
- This calls __do_SAK with the console semaphore held ensuring nothing
  else happens to the console while we process the SAK operation.
- With the console SAK processing moved into process context this
  patch removes the xchg operations that I used to attempt to attomically
  update struct pid, because of the strange locking used in the SAK processing.
  With SAK using the normal console semaphore nothing special is needed.

6e6d74cfac [PATCH] uml: x86_64 ptrace fixes
This patch fixes some missing ptrace bits on x86_64.  PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL is
hooked up and implemented.  This required generalizing arch_prctl_skas
slightly to take a task_struct to modify.  Previously, it always operated on
current.

Reading and writing the debug registers is also enabled by un-ifdefing the
code that implements that.  It turns out that x86_64 is identical to i386, so
the same code can be used.

f355559cf7 [PATCH] uml: x86_64 thread fixes
x86_64 needs some TLS fixes.  What was missing was remembering the child
thread id during clone and stuffing it into the child during each context
switch.

The %fs value is stored separately in the thread structure since the host
controls what effect it has on the actual register file.  The host also needs
to store it in its own thread struct, so we need the value kept outside the
register file.

arch_prctl_skas was fixed to call PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL appropriately.  There is
some saving and restoring of registers in the ARCH_SET_* cases so that the
correct set of registers are changed on the host and restored to the process
when it runs again.

38135614dd [PATCH] m68k: work around binutils tokenizer change
Recent as(1) doesn't think that .  terminates a macro name, so getuser.l is
_not_ treated as invoking getuser with .l as the first argument.
arch/m68k/math-emu relies on old behaviour, so it gets a lot of undefined
macros with more or less current binutils.

Note that this behaviour remains in all recent versions and is unrelated to
another binutils problems we used to have for a while (having (%a0)+ parsed
as two arguments).  This one is there to stay; it's an intentional and
documented change.

.irp <identifier> <words>
[text]
.endr
expands to a copy of text per each word, with \<identifier> replaced with
corresponding word.  Again, what happens depends on whether gas_ident.x
is treated as one or as two tokens; in the former case we'll get old_gas
incremented once, in the latter - twice.  The rest is obvious.

Unlike .macro argument list _anything_ is explicitly allowed after
.irp <identifier>; here we are on very safe ground.  And yes, it does
work with all gas variants I've got here (including vanilla 2.15, 2.16,
2.16.1 and 2.17, plus debian and FC binutils).

767193253b [PATCH] simplify shmem_aops.set_page_dirty() method
shmem backed file does not have page writeback, nor it participates in
backing device's dirty or writeback accounting.  So using generic
__set_page_dirty_nobuffers() for its .set_page_dirty aops method is a bit
overkill.  It unnecessarily prolongs shm unmap latency.

For example, on a densely populated large shm segment (sevearl GBs), the
unmapping operation becomes painfully long.  Because at unmap, kernel
transfers dirty bit in PTE into page struct and to the radix tree tag.  The
operation of tagging the radix tree is particularly expensive because it
has to traverse the tree from the root to the leaf node on every dirty
page.  What's bothering is that radix tree tag is used for page write back.
 However, shmem is memory backed and there is no page write back for such
file system.  And in the end, we spend all that time tagging radix tree and
none of that fancy tagging will be used.  So let's simplify it by introduce
a new aops __set_page_dirty_no_writeback and this will speed up shm unmap.

bd8029b660 [PATCH] zoneid: fix up calculations for ZONEID_PGSHIFT
Currently if we have a non-zero ZONES_SHIFT we assume we are able to rely
on that as the bottom edge of the ZONEID, if not then we use the
NODES_PGOFF as the right end of either NODES _or_ SECTION.  This latter is
more luck than judgement and would be incorrect if we reordered the
SECTION,NODE,ZONE options in the fields space.

Really what we want is the lower of the right hand end of the two fields we
are using (either NODE,ZONE or SECTION,ZONE).  Codify that explicitly.  As
always allow for there being no bits in either of the fields, such as might
be valid in a non-numa machine with only a zone NORMAL.

I have checked that the compiler is still able to constant fold all of this
away correctly.
