75534b50cc [PATCH] Change the name of pagedir_nosave
The name of the pagedir_nosave variable does not make sense any more, so it
seems reasonable to change it to something more meaningful.

e8eff5ac29 [PATCH] Make swsusp avoid memory holes and reserved memory regions on x86_64
On x86_64 machines with more than 2 GB of RAM there are large memory gaps
(with no corresponding kernel virtual addresses) and reserved memory
regions between areas of usable physical RAM.  Moreover, if CONFIG_FLATMEM
is set, they appear within the normal zone.  swsusp should not try to save
them, so the corresponding page structs have to be marked as 'nosave'.

79e453d49b Revert mmiocfg heuristics and blacklist changes
This reverts commits 11012d419c and
40dd2d20f2, which allowed us to use the
MMIO accesses for PCI config cycles even without the area being marked
reserved in the e820 memory tables.

Those changes were needed for EFI-environment Intel macs, but broke some
newer Intel 965 boards, so for now it's better to revert to our old
2.6.17 behaviour and at least avoid introducing any new breakage.

Andi Kleen has a set of patches that work with both EFI and the broken
Intel 965 boards, which will be applied once they get wider testing.

ceee882230 [PATCH] x86_64: Recover 1MB of kernel memory
Noticed by Jan Beulich.

When the kernel was moved from 1MB to 2MB in 2.6.17 the kernel reservation
code wasn't adjusted and it still reserved starting with 1MB. This means 1MB always
were lost.

This patch fixes this by reserving only starting with _text.

ea424055b7 [PATCH] x86: Make backtracer fallback logic more bullet-proof
The unwinder fallback logic still had potential for falling through to
the legacy stack trace code without printing an indication (at once
serving as a separator) of this.

Further, the stack pointer retrieval for the fallback should be as
restrictive as possible (in order to avoid having the legacy stack
tracer try to access invalid memory). The patch tightens that, but
this could certainly be further improved.

Also making the call_trace command line option now conditional upon
CONFIG_STACK_UNWIND (as it's meaningless otherwise).

11012d419c [PATCH] x86: Revert e820 MCFG heuristics
The check for the MCFG table being reserved in the e820 map was originally
added to detect a broken BIOS in a preproduction Intel SDV. However it also
breaks the Apple x86 Macs, which can't supply this properly, but need
a working MCFG. With this patch they wouldn't use the MCFG and not work.

After some discussion I think it's best to remove the heuristic again.
It also failed on some other boxes (although it didn't cause much
problems there because old style port access for PCI config space
still works as fallback), but the preproduction SDVs can just use
pci=nommcfg. Supporting production machines properly is more
important.

Edgar Hucek did all the debugging work.

cea6a4ba8a [PATCH] panic_on_oops: remove ssleep()
This patch is part of an effort to unify the panic_on_oops behaviour across
all architectures that implement it.

It was pointed out to me by Andi Kleen that if an oops has occured in
interrupt context, then calling sleep() in the oops path will only cause a
panic, and that it would be really better for it not to be in the path at
all.

This patch removes the ssleep() call and reworks the console message
accordinly.  I have a slght concern that the resulting console message is
too long, feedback welcome.

For powerpc it also unifies the 32bit and 64bit behaviour.

Fror x86_64, this patch only updates the console message, as ssleep() is
already not present.

d2105b10fe [PATCH] x86_64: Calgary IOMMU - Multi-Node NULL pointer dereference fix
Calgary hits a NULL pointer dereference when booting in a multi-chassis
NUMA system.  See Redhat bugzilla number 198498, found by Konrad
Rzeszutek (konradr@redhat.com).

There are many issues that had to be resolved to fix this problem.
Firstly when I originally wrote the code to handle NUMA systems, I
had a large misunderstanding that was not corrected until now.  That was
that I thought the "number of nodes online" referred to number of
physical systems connected.  So that if NUMA was disabled, there
would only be 1 node and it would only show that node's PCI bus.
In reality if NUMA is disabled, the system displays all of the
connected chassis as one node but is only ignorant of the delays
in accessing main memory.  Therefore, references to num_online_nodes()
and MAX_NUMNODES are incorrect and need to be set to the maximum
number of nodes that can be accessed (which are 8).  I created a
variable, MAX_NUM_CHASSIS, and set it to 8 to fix this.

Secondly, when walking the PCI in detect_calgary, the code only
checked the first "slot" when looking to see if a device is present.
This will work for most cases, but unfortunately it isn't always the
case.  In the NUMA MXE drawers, there are USB devices present on the
3rd slot (with slot 1 being empty).  So, to work around this, all
slots (up to 8) are scanned to see if there are any devices present.

Lastly, the bus is being enumerated on large systems in a different
way the we originally thought.  This throws the ugly logic we had
out the window.  To more elegantly handle this, I reorganized the
kva array to be sparse (which removed the need to have any bus number
to kva slot logic in tce.c) and created a secondary space array to
contain the bus number to phb mapping.

With these changes Calgary boots on an x460 with 4 nodes with and
without NUMA enabled.

b13761ecd1 [PATCH] x86_64: Dump leftover backtrace entries when dwarf2 unwinder got stuck
The dwarf2 unwinder currently often gets stuck because a lot
of assembly code doesn't have proper dwarf2 annotiation yet.

This currently often happens with __down. Should fix this by
adding proper dwarf2 annotation to all inline assembly. However
until that's done we need a quick fix for 2.6.18 to avoid
incomplete backtraces.

So when this happens dump the rest of the stack with the old unwinder
instead of silently not dumping it. There was already a optional
"both" mode that dumped both, but that was too ugly.

I also clarified the headers for the different backtraces a bit.

Also add a clear error message for missing dwarf2
annotation that people can work on.

And I removed a dead variable left over from Ingo's changes.

d5a2601734 [PATCH] i386/x86-64: Add user_mode checks to profile_pc for oprofile
Fixes a obscure user space triggerable crash during oprofiling.

Oprofile calls profile_pc from NMIs even when user_mode(regs) is not true and
the program counter is inside the kernel lock section. This opens
a race - when a user program jumps to a kernel lock address and
a NMI happens before the illegal page fault exception is raised
and the program has a unmapped esp or ebp then the kernel could
oops. NMIs have a higher priority than exceptions so that could
happen.

Add user_mode checks to i386/x86-64 profile_pc to prevent that.

b915543b46 [PATCH] audit syscall classes
Allow to tie upper bits of syscall bitmap in audit rules to kernel-defined
sets of syscalls.  Infrastructure, a couple of classes (with 32bit counterparts
for biarch targets) and actual tie-in on i386, amd64 and ia64.

c0ad90a32f [PATCH] genirq: add ->retrigger() irq op to consolidate hw_irq_resend()
Add ->retrigger() irq op to consolidate hw_irq_resend() implementations.
(Most architectures had it defined to NOP anyway.)

NOTE: ia64 needs testing. i386 and x86_64 tested.

d1bef4ed5f [PATCH] genirq: rename desc->handler to desc->chip
This patch-queue improves the generic IRQ layer to be truly generic, by adding
various abstractions and features to it, without impacting existing
functionality.

While the queue can be best described as "fix and improve everything in the
generic IRQ layer that we could think of", and thus it consists of many
smaller features and lots of cleanups, the one feature that stands out most is
the new 'irq chip' abstraction.

The irq-chip abstraction is about describing and coding and IRQ controller
driver by mapping its raw hardware capabilities [and quirks, if needed] in a
straightforward way, without having to think about "IRQ flow"
(level/edge/etc.) type of details.

This stands in contrast with the current 'irq-type' model of genirq
architectures, which 'mixes' raw hardware capabilities with 'flow' details.
The patchset supports both types of irq controller designs at once, and
converts i386 and x86_64 to the new irq-chip design.

As a bonus side-effect of the irq-chip approach, chained interrupt controllers
(master/slave PIC constructs, etc.) are now supported by design as well.

The end result of this patchset intends to be simpler architecture-level code
and more consolidation between architectures.

We reused many bits of code and many concepts from Russell King's ARM IRQ
layer, the merging of which was one of the motivations for this patchset.

This patch:

rename desc->handler to desc->chip.

Originally i did not want to do this, because it's a big patch.  But having
both "desc->handler", "desc->handle_irq" and "action->handler" caused a
large degree of confusion and made the code appear alot less clean than it
truly is.

I have also attempted a dual approach as well by introducing a
desc->chip alias - but that just wasnt robust enough and broke
frequently.

So lets get over with this quickly.  The conversion was done automatically
via scripts and converts all the code in the kernel.

This renaming patch is the first one amongst the patches, so that the
remaining patches can stay flexible and can be merged and split up
without having some big monolithic patch act as a merge barrier.

5c45bf279d [PATCH] sched: mc/smt power savings sched policy
sysfs entries 'sched_mc_power_savings' and 'sched_smt_power_savings' in
/sys/devices/system/cpu/ control the MC/SMT power savings policy for the
scheduler.

Based on the values (1-enable, 0-disable) for these controls, sched groups
cpu power will be determined for different domains.  When power savings
policy is enabled and under light load conditions, scheduler will minimize
the physical packages/cpu cores carrying the load and thus conserving
power(with a perf impact based on the workload characteristics...  see OLS
2005 CMP kernel scheduler paper for more details..)

9c7b216d23 [PATCH] cpu hotplug: revert init patch submitted for 2.6.17
In 2.6.17, there was a problem with cpu_notifiers and XFS.  I provided a
band-aid solution to solve that problem.  In the process, i undid all the
changes you both were making to ensure that these notifiers were available
only at init time (unless CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is defined).

We deferred the real fix to 2.6.18.  Here is a set of patches that fixes the
XFS problem cleanly and makes the cpu notifiers available only at init time
(unless CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is defined).

If CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is defined then cpu notifiers are available at run
time.

This patch reverts the notifier_call changes made in 2.6.17
