f337346193 [PATCH] sched: mark sysrq_sched_debug_show() static
Only sched.c uses sysrq_sched_debug_show, and sched.c includes sched_debug.c,
so all uses of sysrq_sched_debug_show occur in the same source file.

Eliminates a sparse warning:
warning: symbol 'sysrq_sched_debug_show' was not declared. Should it be static?

2cd4d0ea19 [PATCH] sched: make cpu_clock() not use the rq clock
it is enough to disable interrupts to get the precise rq-clock
of the local CPU.

this also solves an NMI watchdog regression: the NMI watchdog
calls touch_softlockup_watchdog(), which might deadlock on
rq->lock if the NMI hits an rq-locked critical section.

This adds a general mechanism whereby a task can request the scheduler to

b47e8608a0 [PATCH] sched: increase SCHED_LOAD_SCALE_FUZZ
increase SCHED_LOAD_SCALE_FUZZ that adds a small amount of
over-balancing: to help distribute CPU-bound tasks more fairly on SMP
systems.

the problem of unfair balancing was noticed and reported by Tong N Li.

cb7e51d8b1 kbuild: fix modpost warnings for xtensa
The Xtensa architecture places literal pools in sections separate
from the instructions. The corresponsing text sections, therefore,
reference the .literal section, and we have to suppress those
warnings.

The naming convention defines the name for a literal
section as .SECTION.literal, unless .SECTION is .text. In that case
the name is only .literal. Using strncmp() instead of strcmp()
to compare the from-section with .SECTION.init.refok in pattern 0
should not cause any regressions for other architectures.

We also need to suppress warnings for two informational
sections (.xt.lit and .xt.prop) used by the Xtensa architecture.

83cda2bb37 kbuild: be more foregiving on init section naming
In the whitelist function of modpost now use the same

This has the effect that we now recognize sections named
.init.text.19 as init sections and we no longer warn
when we see these.

At the same time make surrounding code readable by dropping
use of temporary flags.

1514ab09ed [x86 setup] APM detection logic bug fix
Starting with kernel 2.6.23-rc1, the i386 APM driver fails
on several of my machines with the message:

apm: BIOS not found

This happens because of a bug in the i386 boot code rewrite
from assembler to C. The original assembly code had the
following code in its APM BIOS presence test (boot/setup.S):

	andw	$0x02, %cx			# Is 32 bit supported?
	je	done_apm_bios			# No 32-bit, no (good) APM BIOS

That is, the code bails out if bit 2 is zero.

In the new C version, this is coded as (boot/apm.c):

	if (cx & 0x02)		/* 32 bits supported? */
		return -1;

Here we see that the test has been accidentally inverted.

The fix is to negate the test. I've verified that this
allows the APM driver to work again on my affected machines.

17c38b7490 Cache xtime every call to update_wall_time
This avoids xtime lag seen with dynticks, because while 'xtime' itself
is still not updated often, we keep a 'xtime_cache' variable around that
contains the approximate real-time that _is_ updated each time we do a
'update_wall_time()', and is thus never off by more than one tick.

IOW, this restores the original semantics for 'xtime' users, as long as
you use the proper abstraction functions (ie 'current_kernel_time()' or
'get_seconds()' depending on whether you want a timespec or just the
seconds field).

[ Updated Patch.  As penance for my sins I've also yanked another #ifdef
  that was added to avoid the xtime lag w/ hrtimers.  ]

2c6b47de17 Cleanup non-arch xtime uses, use get_seconds() or current_kernel_time().
This avoids use of the kernel-internal "xtime" variable directly outside
of the actual time-related functions.  Instead, use the helper functions
that we already have available to us.

This doesn't actually change any behaviour, but this will allow us to
fix the fact that "xtime" isn't updated very often with CONFIG_NO_HZ
(because much of the realtime information is maintained as separate
offsets to 'xtime'), which has caused interfaces that use xtime directly
to get a time that is out of sync with the real-time clock by up to a
third of a second or so.

910949a668 SELinux: null-terminate context string in selinux_xfrm_sec_ctx_alloc
xfrm_audit_log() expects the context string to be null-terminated
which currently doesn't happen with user-supplied contexts.

d37c855719 KVM: disable writeback for 0x0f 0x01 instructions.
0x0f 0x01 instructions (ie lgdt, lidt, smsw, lmsw and invlpg) does
not use writeback. This patch set no_wb=1 when emulating those
instructions.

This fixes a regression booting the FreeBSD kernel on AMD.

4c981b43d7 KVM: Fix removal of nx capability from guest cpuid
Testing the wrong bit caused kvm not to disable nx on the guest when it is
disabled on the host (an mmu optimization relies on the nx bits being the
same in the guest and host).

This allows Windows to boot when nx is disabled on te host (e.g. when
host pae is disabled).

7cfa4b0a43 Revert "KVM: Avoid useless memory write when possible"
This reverts commit a3c870bdce.  While it
does save useless updates, it (probably) defeats the fork detector, causing
a massive performance loss.

We add the kvm to the vm_list before initializing the vcpu mutexes,
which can be mutex_trylock()'ed by decache_vcpus_on_cpu().

b0fcd903e6 KVM: Correctly handle writes crossing a page boundary
Writes that are contiguous in virtual memory may not be contiguous in
physical memory; so split writes that straddle a page boundary.

Thanks to Aurelien for reporting the bug, patient testing, and a fix
to this very patch.
