This patch against ia64-test-2.6.12 is needed for forthcoming
Altix chipsets. It renames geoid_any_t to geoid_common_t and
splits the 8bit 'slab' field into two 4bit fields for 'slab'
and 'slot'. Similar changes in the Altix SAL will retain backward
compatibility for old kernels.

This patch introduces using the quicklists for pgd, pmd, and pte levels
by combining the alloc and free functions into a common set of routines.
This greatly simplifies the reading of this header file.
This patch is simple but necessary for large numa configurations.
It simply ensures that only pages from the local node are added to a
cpus quicklist. This prevents the trapping of pages on a remote nodes
quicklist by starting a process, touching a large number of pages to
fill pmd and pte entries, migrating to another node, and then unmapping
or exiting. With those conditions, the pages get trapped and if the
machine has more than 100 nodes of the same size, the calculation of
the pgtable high water mark will be larger than any single node so page
table cache flushing will never occur.
I ran lmbench lat_proc fork and lat_proc exec on a zx1 with and without
this patch and did not notice any change.
On an sn2 machine, there was a slight improvement which is possibly
due to pages from other nodes trapped on the test node before starting
the run. I did not investigate further.
This patch shrinks the quicklist based upon free memory on the node
instead of the high/low water marks. I have written it to enable
preemption periodically and recalculate the amount to shrink every time
we have freed enough pages that the quicklist size should have grown.
I rescan the nodes zones each pass because other processess may be
draining node memory at the same time as we are adding.

- make pfm_sysctl a global such that it is possible
to enable/disable debug printk in sampling formats
using PFM_DEBUG.
- remove unused pfm_debug_var variable
- fix a bug in pfm_handle_work where an BUG_ON() could
be triggered. There is a path where pfm_handle_work()
can be called with interrupts enabled, i.e., when
TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set. The fix correct the masking
and unmasking of interrupts in pfm_handle_work() such
that we restore the interrupt mask as it was upon entry.

Change the value of the SAL call number for a new SAL request. The
initial implementation in the PROM did not match what the OS expected.
Since the OS can run on PROMs that do not implement the new call,
changing the call number avoids the issue. New PROMs will implement
the new call number. (This avoids problems with the 4.05 PROM).

This patch is required to support cpu removal for IPF systems. Existing code
just fakes the real offline by keeping it run the idle thread, and polling
for the bit to re-appear in the cpu_state to get out of the idle loop.
For the cpu-offline to work correctly, we need to pass control of this CPU
back to SAL so it can continue in the boot-rendez mode. This gives the
SAL control to not pick this cpu as the monarch processor for global MCA
events, and addition does not wait for this cpu to checkin with SAL
for global MCA events as well. The handoff is implemented as documented in
SAL specification section 3.2.5.1 "OS_BOOT_RENDEZ to SAL return State"

The ia64-version of fls() never worked as intended (the bitnumbering
was off by 1 and fls(0) was undefined). This patch fixes the problem
by using a popcnt-based fls(), which on McKinley-derived cores is
slightly faster than both ia64_fls() and generic_fls(). The resulting
code, however, is bigger (7-8 bundles instead of about 3 bundles).
Also switch ia64_popcnt() to __builtin_popcountl() for GCC v3.4 or
newer since the compiler can predicate that and schedule it better.
Thanks to Simon Derr and Matt Mackall for tracking down this bug.

ia64 and sparc64 hurriedly had to introduce their own variants of
pgd_addr_end, to leapfrog over the holes in their virtual address spaces which
the final clear_page_range suddenly presented when converted from pgd_index to
pgd_addr_end. But now that free_pgtables respects the vma list, those holes
are never presented, and the arch variants can go.

ia64 and ppc64 had hugetlb_free_pgtables functions which were no longer being
called, and it wasn't obvious what to do about them.
The ppc64 case turns out to be easy: the associated tables are noted elsewhere
and freed later, safe to either skip its hugetlb areas or go through the
motions of freeing nothing. Since ia64 does need a special case, restore to
ppc64 the special case of skipping them.
The ia64 hugetlb case has been broken since pgd_addr_end went in, though it
probably appeared to work okay if you just had one such area; in fact it's
been broken much longer if you consider a long munmap spanning from another
region into the hugetlb region.
In the ia64 hugetlb region, more virtual address bits are available than in
the other regions, yet the page tables are structured the same way: the page
at the bottom is larger. Here we need to scale down each addr before passing
it to the standard free_pgd_range. Was about to write a hugely_scaled_down
macro, but found htlbpage_to_page already exists for just this purpose. Fixed
off-by-one in ia64 is_hugepage_only_range.
Uninline free_pgd_range to make it available to ia64. Make sure the
vma-gathering loop in free_pgtables cannot join a hugepage_only_range to any
other (safe to join huges? probably but don't bother).

There's only one usage of MM_VM_SIZE(mm) left, and it's a troublesome macro
because mm doesn't contain the (32-bit emulation?) info needed. But it too is
only needed because we ignore the end from the vma list.
We could make flush_pgtables return that end, or unmap_vmas. Choose the
latter, since it's a natural fit with unmap_mapping_range_vma needing to know
its restart addr. This does make more than minimal change, but if unmap_vmas
had returned the end before, this is how we'd have done it, rather than
storing the break_addr in zap_details.
unmap_vmas used to return count of vmas scanned, but that's just debug which
hasn't been useful in a while; and if we want the map_count 0 on exit check
back, it can easily come from the final remove_vm_struct loop.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
