Stephen Rothwell c670b1acd0 [PATCH] ppc64 iSeries: misc header cleanups
Last of this round of the iSeries header cleanups
	- don't have two defines for the same thing (HvMaxArchitectedLps
	  and HvMaxArchitectedVirtualLans)
	- HvCallSc.h only needs linux/types.h
	- remove unused struct definition
	- add "extern" to some more function declarations

Sven Luther 723e2b35e4 [PATCH] ppc64: override command line AS/LD/CC variables when adding -m64 and co for biarch compilers
The following kind of calls currently fails :

  make ARCH=ppc64 CC="gcc-3.4"

Since the code for detecting a biarch compiler and adding the needed 64bit
magic argument fails if the AS/LD/CC commands are overriden in the command
line.

The attached patch fixes this by using the make override and += directive,
but i am not 100% sure this will work without gmake, as i am no Makefile
expert.

David Gibson 20cee16ced [PATCH] ppc64: Abolish ioremap_mm
Currently ppc64 has two mm_structs for the kernel, init_mm and also
ioremap_mm.  The latter really isn't necessary: this patch abolishes it,
instead restricting vmallocs to the lower 1TB of the init_mm's range and
placing io mappings in the upper 1TB.  This simplifies the code in a number
of places and eliminates an unecessary set of pagetables.  It also tweaks
the unmap/free path a little, allowing us to remove the unmap_im_area() set
of page table walkers, replacing them with unmap_vm_area().

Expanded the number of internal interrupts to 48 for all PowerQUICC III
processors and moved the interrupt numbers for the external after the 48
internal interrupt lines, rather than putting the 12 new internal
interrupts at the end and ifdef'ng the whole mess.  As parted of this
created a macro which represents the internal interrupt senses since they
are the same on all PQ3 processors.

Jes Sorensen f14f75b811 [PATCH] ia64 uncached alloc
This patch contains the ia64 uncached page allocator and the generic
allocator (genalloc).  The uncached allocator was formerly part of the SN2
mspec driver but there are several other users of it so it has been split
off from the driver.

The generic allocator can be used by device driver to manage special memory
etc.  The generic allocator is based on the allocator from the sym53c8xx_2
driver.

Various users on ia64 needs uncached memory.  The SGI SN architecture requires
it for inter-partition communication between partitions within a large NUMA
cluster.  The specific user for this is the XPC code.  Another application is
large MPI style applications which use it for synchronization, on SN this can
be done using special 'fetchop' operations but it also benefits non SN
hardware which may use regular uncached memory for this purpose.  Performance
of doing this through uncached vs cached memory is pretty substantial.  This
is handled by the mspec driver which I will push out in a seperate patch.

Rather than creating a specific allocator for just uncached memory I came up
with genalloc which is a generic purpose allocator that can be used by device
drivers and other subsystems as they please.  For instance to handle onboard
device memory.  It was derived from the sym53c7xx_2 driver's allocator which
is also an example of a potential user (I am refraining from modifying sym2
right now as it seems to have been under fairly heavy development recently).

On ia64 memory has various properties within a granule, ie.  it isn't safe to
access memory as uncached within the same granule as currently has memory
accessed in cached mode.  The regular system therefore doesn't utilize memory
in the lower granules which is mixed in with device PAL code etc.  The
uncached driver walks the EFI memmap and pulls out the spill uncached pages
and sticks them into the uncached pool.  Only after these chunks have been
utilized, will it start converting regular cached memory into uncached memory.
Hence the reason for the EFI related code additions.

Wolfgang Wander 1363c3cd86 [PATCH] Avoiding mmap fragmentation
Ingo recently introduced a great speedup for allocating new mmaps using the
free_area_cache pointer which boosts the specweb SSL benchmark by 4-5% and
causes huge performance increases in thread creation.

The downside of this patch is that it does lead to fragmentation in the
mmap-ed areas (visible via /proc/self/maps), such that some applications
that work fine under 2.4 kernels quickly run out of memory on any 2.6
kernel.

The problem is twofold:

  1) the free_area_cache is used to continue a search for memory where
     the last search ended.  Before the change new areas were always
     searched from the base address on.

     So now new small areas are cluttering holes of all sizes
     throughout the whole mmap-able region whereas before small holes
     tended to close holes near the base leaving holes far from the base
     large and available for larger requests.

  2) the free_area_cache also is set to the location of the last
     munmap-ed area so in scenarios where we allocate e.g.  five regions of
     1K each, then free regions 4 2 3 in this order the next request for 1K
     will be placed in the position of the old region 3, whereas before we
     appended it to the still active region 1, placing it at the location
     of the old region 2.  Before we had 1 free region of 2K, now we only
     get two free regions of 1K -> fragmentation.

The patch addresses thes issues by introducing yet another cache descriptor
cached_hole_size that contains the largest known hole size below the
current free_area_cache.  If a new request comes in the size is compared
against the cached_hole_size and if the request can be filled with a hole
below free_area_cache the search is started from the base instead.

The results look promising: Whereas 2.6.12-rc4 fragments quickly and my
(earlier posted) leakme.c test program terminates after 50000+ iterations
with 96 distinct and fragmented maps in /proc/self/maps it performs nicely
(as expected) with thread creation, Ingo's test_str02 with 20000 threads
requires 0.7s system time.

Taking out Ingo's patch (un-patch available per request) by basically
deleting all mentions of free_area_cache from the kernel and starting the
search for new memory always at the respective bases we observe: leakme
terminates successfully with 11 distinctive hardly fragmented areas in
/proc/self/maps but thread creating is gringdingly slow: 30+s(!) system
time for Ingo's test_str02 with 20000 threads.

Now - drumroll ;-) the appended patch works fine with leakme: it ends with
only 7 distinct areas in /proc/self/maps and also thread creation seems
sufficiently fast with 0.71s for 20000 threads.

David Gibson 63551ae0fe [PATCH] Hugepage consolidation
A lot of the code in arch/*/mm/hugetlbpage.c is quite similar.  This patch
attempts to consolidate a lot of the code across the arch's, putting the
combined version in mm/hugetlb.c.  There are a couple of uglyish hacks in
order to covert all the hugepage archs, but the result is a very large
reduction in the total amount of code.  It also means things like hugepage
lazy allocation could be implemented in one place, instead of six.

Tested, at least a little, on ppc64, i386 and x86_64.

Notes:
	- this patch changes the meaning of set_huge_pte() to be more

Martin Hicks 753ee72896 [PATCH] VM: early zone reclaim
This is the core of the (much simplified) early reclaim.  The goal of this
patch is to reclaim some easily-freed pages from a zone before falling back
onto another zone.

One of the major uses of this is NUMA machines.  With the default allocator
behavior the allocator would look for memory in another zone, which might be
off-node, before trying to reclaim from the current zone.

This adds a zone tuneable to enable early zone reclaim.  It is selected on a
per-zone basis and is turned on/off via syscall.

Adding some extra throttling on the reclaim was also required (patch
4/4).  Without the machine would grind to a crawl when doing a "make -j"
kernel build.  Even with this patch the System Time is higher on
average, but it seems tolerable.  Here are some numbers for kernbench
runs on a 2-node, 4cpu, 8Gig RAM Altix in the "make -j" run:

			wall  user   sys   %cpu  ctx sw.  sleeps
			----  ----   ---   ----   ------  ------
No patch		1009  1384   847   258   298170   504402
w/patch, no reclaim     880   1376   667   288   254064   396745
w/patch & reclaim       1079  1385   926   252   291625   548873

These numbers are the average of 2 runs of 3 "make -j" runs done right
after system boot.  Run-to-run variability for "make -j" is huge, so
these numbers aren't terribly useful except to seee that with reclaim
the benchmark still finishes in a reasonable amount of time.

I also looked at the NUMA hit/miss stats for the "make -j" runs and the
reclaim doesn't make any difference when the machine is thrashing away.

Doing a "make -j8" on a single node that is filled with page cache pages
takes 700 seconds with reclaim turned on and 735 seconds without reclaim
(due to remote memory accesses).

Ingo Molnar 39c715b717 [PATCH] smp_processor_id() cleanup
This patch implements a number of smp_processor_id() cleanup ideas that
Arjan van de Ven and I came up with.

The previous __smp_processor_id/_smp_processor_id/smp_processor_id API
spaghetti was hard to follow both on the implementational and on the
usage side.

Some of the complexity arose from picking wrong names, some of the
complexity comes from the fact that not all architectures defined
__smp_processor_id.

In the new code, there are two externally visible symbols:

 - smp_processor_id(): debug variant.

 - raw_smp_processor_id(): nondebug variant. Replaces all existing
   uses of _smp_processor_id() and __smp_processor_id(). Defined
   by every SMP architecture in include/asm-*/smp.h.

There is one new internal symbol, dependent on DEBUG_PREEMPT:

 - debug_smp_processor_id(): internal debug variant, mapped to
                             smp_processor_id().

Also, i moved debug_smp_processor_id() from lib/kernel_lock.c into a new
lib/smp_processor_id.c file.  All related comments got updated and/or
clarified.

I have build/boot tested the following 8 .config combinations on x86:

 {SMP,UP} x {PREEMPT,!PREEMPT} x {DEBUG_PREEMPT,!DEBUG_PREEMPT}

I have also build/boot tested x64 on UP/PREEMPT/DEBUG_PREEMPT.  (Other
architectures are untested, but should work just fine.)

Suresh Siddha 84929801e1 [PATCH] x86_64: TASK_SIZE fixes for compatibility mode processes
Appended patch will setup compatibility mode TASK_SIZE properly.  This will
fix atleast three known bugs that can be encountered while running
compatibility mode apps.

a) A malicious 32bit app can have an elf section at 0xffffe000.  During
   exec of this app, we will have a memory leak as insert_vm_struct() is
   not checking for return value in syscall32_setup_pages() and thus not
   freeing the vma allocated for the vsyscall page.  And instead of exec
   failing (as it has addresses > TASK_SIZE), we were allowing it to
   succeed previously.

b) With a 32bit app, hugetlb_get_unmapped_area/arch_get_unmapped_area
   may return addresses beyond 32bits, ultimately causing corruption
   because of wrap-around and resulting in SEGFAULT, instead of returning
   ENOMEM.

c) 32bit app doing this below mmap will now fail.

  mmap((void *)(0xFFFFE000UL), 0x10000UL, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
	MAP_FIXED|MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANON, 0, 0);

Ken Chen 0393eed5c3 [IA64] fix nested_dtlb_miss handler for hugetlb address
The nested_dtlb_miss handler currently does not handle fault from
hugetlb address correctly.  It walks the page table assuming PAGE_SIZE.
Thus when taking a fault triggered from hugetlb address, it would not
calculate the pgd/pmd/pte address correctly and thus result an incorrect
invocation of ia64_do_page_fault().  In there, kernel will signal SIGBUS
and application dies (The faulting address is perfectly legal and we
have a valid pte for the corresponding user hugetlb address as well).
This patch fix the described kernel bug.  Since nested_dtlb_miss is a
rare event and a slow path anyway, I'm making the change without #ifdef
CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE for code readability.  Tony, please apply.

Lennert Buytenhek e4fe19819e [PATCH] ARM: 2701/1: free up ixp2000 timer 4 for the watchdog
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek

The IXP2000 has four timers, but if we're on an A-step IXP2800, timer
2 and 3 don't work.  We need two timers for timekeeping (one for the
timer interrupt and one for tracking missed jiffies), so on early
IXP2800s we have no other choice but to use timer 1 and 4 for that,
but on all other IXP2000s we'd rather leave timer 4 free since that's
the only timer we can use for the watchdog.
So, on buggy IXP2000s (i.e. the A-step IXP2800) we use timer 4 for
tracking missed jiffies, and on all all non-buggy IXP2000s (i.e.
everything but the A-step IXP2800) we use timer 2.
On a pre-production IXP2800, this patch should print these messages
on boot:
	Enabling IXP2800 erratum #25 workaround
	Unable to use IXP2000 watchdog due to IXP2800 erratum #25
On any non-buggy IXP2800 (as well as on IXP2400s) you shouldn't see
anything at all, and the watchdog should be usable again.

The ARM generic Kconfig filters out IDE options ... except for
an error prone ARMload of special cases.
This adds one general case to the systems that will offer IDE options:
kernels with PCMCIA support, which probably want to use IDE to access
CompactFlash cards.  This might allow many (most?) of the other cases
to disappear, for systems that only see IDE hardware through CF cards.
Right now this one patch is used to gate access to CF cards, including
MicroDrives, for both omap_cf and at91_cf drivers.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 0086b5ec78 [PATCH] ppc32: Fix nasty sleep/wakeup problem
Despite all the care lately in making the powermac sleep/wakeup as
robust as possible, there is still a nasty related to the use of cpufreq
on PMU based machines.  Unfortunately, it affects paulus old powerbook
so I have to fix it :)

We didn't manage to understand what is precisely going on, it leads to
memory corruption and might have to do with RAM not beeing properly
refreshed when a cpufreq transition is done right before the sleep.

The best workaround (and less intrusive at this point) we could come up
with is included in this patch.  We basically do _not_ force a switch to
high speed on suspend anymore (that is what is causing the problem) on
those machines.  We still force a speed switch on wakeup (since we don't
know what speed we are coming back from sleep at, and that seems to work
fine).

Since, during this short interval, the actual CPU speed might be
incorrect, we also hack around by multiplying loops_per_jiffy by 2 (max
speed factor on those machines) during early wakeup stage to make sure
udelay's during that time aren't too short.

For after 2.6.12, we'll change udelay implementation to use the CPU
timebase (which is always constant) instead like we do on ppc64 and thus
get rid of all those problems.

Christoph Lameter a2a64769d0 [IA64] Fix race condition in the rt_sigprocmask fastcall
current->blocked will be set to the value of current->thread_info->flags if the
cmpxchg to update thread_info->flags fails. For performance reasons the store into
current->blocked was placed in the cmpxchg loop. However, the cmpxchg overwrites the
register holding the value to be stored. In the rare case of a retry the value of
thread_info->flags will be written into current->blocked.

The fix is to use another register so that the register containing the current->blocked
value is not overwritten.

Paul Mackerras ce10d97905 [PATCH] ppc64: Fix PER_LINUX32 behaviour
This patch fixes some bugs in the ppc64 PER_LINUX32 implementation,
noted by Juergen Kreileder:

* uname(2) doesn't respect PER_LINUX32, it returns 'ppc64' instead of 'ppc'
* Child processes of a PER_LINUX32 process don't inherit PER_LINUX32

Along the way I took the opportunity to move things around so that
sys_ppc32.c only has 32-bit syscall emulation functions and to remove
the obsolete "fakeppc" command line option.

Peter Chubb 05062d96a2 [PATCH] ia64: fix floating-point preemption problem
There've been reports of problems with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y and the high
floating point partition.  This is caused by the possibility of preemption
and rescheduling on a different processor while saving or restioirng the
high partition.

The only places where the FPU state is touched are in ptrace, in
switch_to(), and where handling a floating-point exception.  In switch_to()
preemption is off.  So it's only in trap.c and ptrace.c that we need to
prevent preemption.

Here is a patch that adds commentary to make the conditions clear, and adds
appropriate preempt_{en,dis}able() calls to make it so.  In trap.c I use
preempt_enable_no_resched(), as we're about to return to user space where
the preemption flag will be checked anyway.
