[PATCH] alpha smp fix (part #2)
This fixes the bug that caused BUG_ON(!irqs_disabled()) to trigger in
run_posix_cpu_timers() on alpha/smp. We didn't disable interrupts
properly before calling smp_percpu_timer_interrupt().
We *do* disable interrupts everywhere except this unfortunate
smp_percpu_timer_interrupt(). Fixed thus.

[PATCH] alpha smp fix
As usual, the reason of this breakage is quite silly: in do_entIF, we
are checking for PS == 0 to see whether it was a kernel BUG() or
userspace trap.
It works, unless BUG() happens in interrupt - PS is not 0 in kernel mode
due to non-zero IPL, and the things get messed up horribly then. In
this particular case it was BUG_ON(!irqs_disabled()) triggered in
run_posix_cpu_timers(), so we ended up shooting "current" with the
bursts of one SIGTRAP and three SIGILLs on every timer tick. ;-)

Patch from Catalin Marinas
The new EABI gcc adds -mthumb-interwork by default, even if
-mabi=apcs-gnu is passed. This causes a warning for every compiled C
file when -march=armv4 is used. The patch adds -mno-thumb-interwork
if the option is supported. This is also useful since we don't need
any ARM/Thumb interworking in the kernel

[PATCH] Improper initrd failure message at boot time
On system boot up, there was an failure reported to boot.msg:
<5>Trying to move old root to /initrd ... failed
According to initrd(4) man page, step #7 of BOOT-UP OPERATION
is described as below:
7. If the normal root file has directory /initrd, device
/dev/ram0 is moved from / to /initrd. Otherwise if
directory /initrd does not exist device /dev/ram0 is
unmounted.
We got service calls from customers concerning about this failure message
at boot time. Many systems do not have /initrd and thus the message can be
changed in the case of non-existing /initrd so that it does not sound like
a failure of the system.

[PATCH] selinux_sb_copy_data() should not require a whole page
Currently selinux_sb_copy_data requires an entire page be allocated to
*orig when the function is called. This "requirement" is based on the fact
that we call copy_page(in_save, nosec_save) and in_save = orig when the
data is not FS_BINARY_MOUNTDATA. This means that if a caller were to call
do_kern_mount with only about 10 bytes of options, they would get passed
here and then we would corrupt PAGE_SIZE - 10 bytes of memory (with all
zeros.)
Currently it appears all in kernel FS's use one page of data so this has
not been a problem. An out of kernel FS did just what is described above
and it would almost always panic shortly after they tried to mount. From
looking else where in the kernel it is obvious that this string of data
must always be null terminated. (See example in do_mount where it always
zeros the last byte.) Thus I suggest we use strcpy in place of copy_page.
In this way we make sure the amount we copy is always less than or equal to
the amount we received and since do_mount is zeroing the last byte this
should be safe for all.

[PATCH] driver core: Add the ability to bind drivers to devices from userspace
This adds a single file, "bind", to the sysfs directory of every driver
registered with the driver core. To bind a device to a driver, write
the bus id of the device you wish to bind to that specific driver to the
"bind" file (remember to not add a trailing \n). If that bus id matches
a device on that bus, and it does not currently have a driver bound to
it, the probe sequence will be initiated with that driver and device.
Note, this requires that the driver itself be willing and able to accept
that device (usually through a device id type table). This patch does
not make it possible to override the driver's id table.

[PATCH] ppc64: Replace custom locking code with a spinlock
The hvlpevent_queue (formally ItLpQueue) has a member called xInUseWord
which is used for serialising access to the queue. Because it's a word
(ie. 32 bit) there's a custom 32-bit version of test_and_set_bit() or
thereabouts in ItLpQueue.c.
The xInUseWord is not shared with they hypervisor, so we can replace it
with a spinlock and remove the custom code.
There is also another locking mechanism (ItLpQueueInProcess). This is
redundant because it's only manipulated while the lock's held. Remove it.

[PATCH] ppc64: Remove lpqueue pointer from the paca on iSeries
The iSeries code keeps a pointer to the ItLpQueue in its paca struct. But
all these pointers end up pointing to the one place, ie. xItLpQueue.
So remove the pointer from the paca struct and just refer to xItLpQueue
directly where needed.
The only complication is that the spread_lpevents logic was implemented by
having a NULL lpqueue pointer in the paca on CPUs that weren't supposed to
process events. Instead we just compare the spread_lpevents value to the
processor id to get the same behaviour.

I am using the atxp1 module to change vcore on my NForce2 via userspace

Currently the atxp1 module will write to the log on every vcore change,
thus filling up my log - which I don't want. I am no kernel coder, but
I guess, this one-liner will change this behaviour in a wanted way, ie
output will be made for debug purposes only.

[PATCH] ARM: 2769/1: cpu_init() stack setup fix
Patch from Catalin Marinas
The compiler allocates r14 for the stk variable in the __asm__ directive.
This is a shadowed register and gets changed when the mode is changed,
causing random values in the SP register. The patch adds a clobber for
the r14 register.

[PATCH] ARM: Convert ARM timer implementations to use readl/writel
Convert ARMs timer implementations to use readl/writel instead of accessing
the registers via a struct.
People have recently asked if accessing timers via a structure is the
"right way" and its not the Linux way. So fix this code to conform to
"The Linux Way"(tm).

constant definition with UL or with nothing depending on its usage in the

[IA64] Speed up lfetch.fault [NULL]
This patch greatly speeds up the handling of lfetch.fault instructions
which result in NaT consumption. Due to the NaT-page mapped at address
0, this is guaranteed to happen when lfetch.fault'ing a NULL pointer.
With this patch in place, we can even define prefetch()/prefetchw() as
lfetch.fault without significant performance degradation. More
importantly, it allows compilers to be more aggressive with using
lfetch.fault on pointers that might be NULL.

[IA64-SGI] pcdp: add PCDP pci interface support
Resend 2 with changes per Bjorn Helgaas comments. Changes from original:
+ Change globals to vga_console_iobase/vga_console_membase and make them
unconditional.
+ Address style-related comments.
Patch to extend the PCDP vga setup code to support PCI io/mem translations
for the legacy vga ioport and ram spaces on architectures (e.g. altix) which
need them.
Summary of the changes:
drivers/firmware/pcdp.c
drivers/firmware/pcdp.h
-----------------------
+ add declaration for the spec-defined PCI interface struct (pcdp_if_pci)
as well as support macros.
+ extend setup_vga_console() to know about pcdp_if_pci and add a couple of
globals to hold the io and mem translation offsets if present.
arch/ia64/kernel/setup.c
------------------------
+ tweek early_console_setup() to allow multiple early console setup routines
to be called.
include/asm-ia64/vga.h
----------------------
+ make VGA_MAP_MEM vga_console_membase aware

[PATCH] ppc64: don't create spurious symlinks under node0 sysdev
On partitioned systems we can wind up creating spurious symlinks in
/sys/devices/system/node/node0 to non-present cpus. The symlinks are
not broken; the problem is that we're potentially misinforming
userspace that there is a relationship between node0 and cpus which
are to be added later. There's no guarantee at all that a cpu which
is added later will belong to node 0.

[IA64] use srlz.d instead of srlz.i in ia64_leave_kernel()
This patch switches the srlz.i in ia64_leave_kernel() to srlz.d. As
per architecture manual, the former is needed only to ensure that the
clearing of PSR.IC is seen by the VHPT for subsequent instruction
fetches. However, since the remainder of the code (up to and
including the RFI instruction) is mapped by a pinned TLB entry, there
is no chance of an iTLB miss and we don't care whether or not the VHPT
sees PSR.IC cleared. Since srlz.d is substantially cheaper than
srlz.i, this should shave off a few cycles off the interrupt path
(unverified though; I'm not setup to measure this at the moment).

[IA64] Reschedule fsys_bubble_down().
Improvements come from eliminating srlz.i, not scheduling AR/CR-reads
too early (while there are others still pending), scheduling the
backing-store switch as well as possible, splitting the BBB bundle
into a MIB/MBB pair.
Why is it safe to eliminate the srlz.i? Observe
that we used to clear bits ~PSR_PRESERVED_BITS in PSR.L. Since
PSR_PRESERVED_BITS==PSR.{UP,MFL,MFH,PK,DT,PP,SP,RT,IC}, we
ended up clearing PSR.{BE,AC,I,DFL,DFH,DI,DB,SI,TB}. However,
PSR.BE : already is turned off in __kernel_syscall_via_epc()
PSR.AC : don't care (kernel normally turns PSR.AC on)
PSR.I : already turned off by the time fsys_bubble_down gets invoked
PSR.DFL: always 0 (kernel never turns it on)
PSR.DFH: don't care --- kernel never touches f32-f127 on its own
initiative
PSR.DI : always 0 (kernel never turns it on)
PSR.SI : always 0 (kernel never turns it on)
PSR.DB : don't care --- kernel never enables kernel-level breakpoints
PSR.TB : must be 0 already; if it wasn't zero on entry to
__kernel_syscall_via_epc, the branch to fsys_bubble_down
will trigger a taken branch; the taken-trap-handler then
converts the syscall into a break-based system-call.
In other words: all the bits we're clearying are either 0 already or
are don't cares! Thus, we don't have to write PSR.L at all and we
don't have to do a srlz.i either.
Good for another ~20 cycle improvement for EPC-based heavy-weight
syscalls.

[IA64] Reschedule break_fault() for better performance.
This patch reorganizes break_fault() to optimistically assume that a
system-call is being performed from user-space (which is almost always
the case). If it turns out that (a) we're not being called due to a
system call or (b) we're being called from within the kernel, we fixup
the no-longer-valid assumptions in non_syscall() and .break_fixup(),
respectively.
With this approach, there are 3 major phases:
- Phase 1: Read various control & application registers, in
particular the current task pointer from AR.K6.
- Phase 2: Do all memory loads (load system-call entry,
load current_thread_info()->flags, prefetch
kernel register-backing store) and switch
to kernel register-stack.
- Phase 3: Call ia64_syscall_setup() and invoke
syscall-handler.
Good for 26-30 cycles of improvement on break-based syscall-path.

Why is this a good idea? Clearing b7 to 0 is guaranteed to do us no
good and writing it with __kernel_syscall_via_epc() yields a 6 cycle
improvement _if_ the application performs another EPC-based system-
call without overwriting b7, which is not all that uncommon. Well
