9539d4e79f [PATCH] Mark VMSPLIT EMBEDDED
Running abnormal VM splits causes weird problems - people can set non-standard
splits by accident, then lots of time gets wasted diagnosing it - see the long
"[stable] 2.6.16.6 breaks java...  sort of" email thread.

So we need to make this option harder to set.  Use CONFIG_EMBEDDED for this.

CONFIG_EMBEDDED isn't really the right thing to use, but there's nothing else
obvious and avoiding these problems is more important than Kconfig purity.

35076bdfa1 [PATCH] enable X86_PC for HOTPLUG_CPU
CPU_HOTPLUG has race conditions when we use broadcast mode IPI.

- First we introduced no_broadcast option
    (see include/asm-i386/mach-default/mach_ipi.h)

- x86_64 solved it by using physical flat mode (same as bigsmp on i386)
  since this will not use broadcast shortcuts for IPI.

- We switched to use bigsmp on i386 so that we can have same handling as
  x86_64, but apparently this caused an error message, if kernel was
  compiled without X86_GENERICARCH, X86_BIGSMP.  The message "You have >8
  CPUS..." which was bogus and misleading, and only indicated one of the
  above ARCH wasnt selected.

So we do not switch to automatic bigsmp for HOTPLUG_CPU support in i386
until the other related config dependencies for SMP_SUSPEND etc can be done
right.

Few of the notifier_chain_register() callers use __init in the definition
of notifier_call.  It is incorrect as the function definition should be

initializations).

18bd057b14 [PATCH] i386/x86-64: Fix x87 information leak between processes
AMD K7/K8 CPUs only save/restore the FOP/FIP/FDP x87 registers in FXSAVE
when an exception is pending.  This means the value leak through
context switches and allow processes to observe some x87 instruction
state of other processes.

This was actually documented by AMD, but nobody recognized it as
being different from Intel before.

The fix first adds an optimization: instead of unconditionally
calling FNCLEX after each FXSAVE test if ES is pending and skip
it when not needed. Then do a x87 load from a kernel variable to
clear FOP/FIP/FDP.

This means other processes always will only see a constant value
defined by the kernel in their FP state.

I took some pain to make sure to chose a variable that's already
in L1 during context switch to make the overhead of this low.

Also alternative() is used to patch away the new code on CPUs
who don't need it.

Patch for both i386/x86-64.

The problem was discovered originally by Jan Beulich. Richard
Brunner provided the basic code for the workarounds, with contribution
from Jan.

This is CVE-2006-1056

This patch removes all such inline and adds them to kprobes section
there by disallowing probes on all such routines.  Some of the routines
can even still be inlined, since these routines gets executed after the

40d8b89b06 [PATCH] arch/i386/pci/irq.c - new VIA chipsets (fwd)
I use 2.6.15.6 Linux kernel and found some problems. I have about 100
Linux boxes (all with the same (binary the same) kernel). Last time I have
upgraded all those boxes from 2.4.32 to 2.6.15.6 (first 2.6.15.1, next .2,
.4 and .6) and I have found some problems on VIA based PC's. Probably the
reason of this is that some VIA chipsets are unrecognized by IRQ router.

In line 586 there is: /* FIXME: add new ones for 8233/5 */

There were only a few of chipsets ID's there, some of my VIA chipsets were
not present and kernel used default IRQ router.

I have added three entries, so that the code looks like:

        case PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_82C596:
        case PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_82C686:
        case PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_8231:
        case PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_8233A:
        case PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_8235:
        case PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_8237:
        case PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_8237_SATA:
                /* FIXME: add new ones for 8233/5 */
                r->name = "VIA";
                r->get = pirq_via_get;
                r->set = pirq_via_set;
                return 1;
        }

The kernel goes fine but I haven't testes it for weeks, I'm just a moment
after reboot :)
One thing is different (better?):
Using previus kernel I had:
PCI: Via IRQ fixup for 0000:00:0f.1, from 255 to 0
now I have:
PCI: Via IRQ fixup for 0000:00:0f.1, from 255 to 11

Maybe it is good idea to add there some more VIA chipsets?
The ones I have added seem to be OK.

4f705ae3e9 [PATCH] DMI: move dmi_scan.c from arch/i386 to drivers/firmware/
dmi_scan.c is arch-independent and is used by i386, x86_64, and ia64.
Currently all three arches compile it from arch/i386, which means that ia64
and x86_64 depend on things in arch/i386 that they wouldn't otherwise care
about.

This is simply "mv arch/i386/kernel/dmi_scan.c drivers/firmware/" (removing
trailing whitespace) and the associated Makefile changes.  All three
architectures already set CONFIG_DMI in their top-level Kconfig files.

Basically an in-kernel implementation of tee, which uses splice and the
pipe buffers as an intelligent way to pass data around by reference.

Where the user space tee consumes the input and produces a stdout and

another pipe. No data is copied, the output just grabs a reference to the

0fcd270901 [PATCH] x86-64/i386: Don't process APICs/IO-APICs in ACPI when APIC is disabled.
When nolapic was passed or the local APIC was disabled
for another reason ACPI would still parse the IO-APICs
until these were explicitely disabled with noapic.

Usually this resulted in a non booting configuration unless
"nolapic noapic" was used.

I also disabled the local APIC parsing in this case, although
that's only cosmetic (suppresses a few printks)

This hopefully makes nolapic work in all cases.

Fix by enabling the latter method in x86_64 only if supported by the BIOS.

being exported from lib/string.c.  Investigating further, I noticed a

I think this is wrong, since no architecture currently defines

themselves.  Therefore, consolidate the export to lib/string.c.

c80d79d746 [PATCH] Configurable NODES_SHIFT
Current implementations define NODES_SHIFT in include/asm-xxx/numnodes.h for
each arch.  Its definition is sometimes configurable.  Indeed, ia64 defines 5
NODES_SHIFT values in the current git tree.  But it looks a bit messy.

SGI-SN2(ia64) system requires 1024 nodes, and the number of nodes already has
been changeable by config.  Suitable node's number may be changed in the
future even if it is other architecture.  So, I wrote configurable node's
number.

This patch set defines just default value for each arch which needs multi
nodes except ia64.  But, it is easy to change to configurable if necessary.

On ia64 the number of nodes can be already configured in generic ia64 and SN2
config.  But, NODES_SHIFT is defined for DIG64 and HP'S machine too.  So, I
changed it so that all platforms can be configured via CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT.  It
would be simpler.

6cf272acd5 [PATCH] swsusp: don't require bigsmp
Switching to automatic bigsmp causes a misleading error message, that more
then 8 cpus are detected, and user needs to select either X86_GENERICARCH
or X86_BIGSMP to handle.

Reason is we switched to bigsmp to avoid IP race when new cpu is comming
up.  [bigsmp is nothing but using physical flat mode that can work for 1 ..
 255 cpus] [default is X86_PC, that uses logical flat mode up to 8 CPUs
max] Current x86_64 code uses bigsmp as default when hotplug is enabled.

It would be preferable to make bigsmp as default, and work the dependencies
of other related code like SMP_SUSPEND, and some related to memory hotplug
code for i386.

Current logical flat mode doesnt use shortcuts that cause the race by using
the send_IPI_mask() instead of shortcuts when HOTPLUG_CPU is enabled.

In the meantime this patch is the path of lease resistance.

We will switch to bigsmp default sometime soon, when we get to work it again.

dd7ba3b8b1 [PATCH] arch/i386/mach-voyager/voyager_cat.c: named initializers
This patch switches arch/i386/mach-voyager/voyager_cat.c to using named
initializers for struct resource.

Besides a fixing compile error in Greg's tree, it makes the code more
readable.

66004a6ca2 Move request_standard_resources() back to before PCI probing
This effectively undoes the PCI resource allocation changes done in
commit b408cbc704, but leaves the cleanups
of that commit in place.

We're going back to marking the resources reported by e820 busy _before_
doing PCI probing, so that any PCI resource that clashes with the BIOS-
reported memory map will be reloacted to a non-clashing area.

The reason? Larry Finger reports that his laptop has the cardbus
controller set up by the BIOS so that it conflicts with the e820 memory
map, and needs to be relocated. See

   http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6337

for more details.

We'll have to work out how to handle the fbcon problem that caused that
commit in the first place in some other way.

8c30b1a74a [PATCH] i386/x86_64: Check if MCFG works for the first 16 busses
Previously only the first bus would be checked against Type 1.

Why 16? Checking all would need too much memory and we
can assume that systems with more than 16 busses have better than
average quality BIOS.

This is an additional defense against bad MCFG tables.

95d769aaf4 [PATCH] i386: Consolidate modern APIC handling
AMD systems have a modern APIC that supports 8 bit IDs, but
don't have a XAPIC version number.  Add a new "modern_apic"
subfunction that handles this correctly and use it (nearly)
everywhere where XAPIC is tested for.

I removed one wart: the code specified that external APICs
would use an 8bit APIC ID. But I checked a real 82093 data sheet
and it says clearly that they only use 4bit. So I removed
this special case since it would a bit awkward to implement now.

I removed the valid APIC tests in mptable parsing completely. On any modern
system they only check against the full field width (8bit) anyways
and are no-ops. This also fixes them doing the wrong thing
on >8 core Opterons.

This makes i386 boot again on 16 core Opterons.

d3b6a349d2 [PATCH] x86-64/i386: Don't process APICs/IO-APICs in ACPI when APIC is disabled.
When nolapic was passed or the local APIC was disabled
for another reason ACPI would still parse the IO-APICs
until these were explicitely disabled with noapic.

Usually this resulted in a non booting configuration unless
"nolapic noapic" was used.

I also disabled the local APIC parsing in this case, although
that's only cosmetic (suppresses a few printks)

This hopefully makes nolapic work in all cases.

Horus systems don't have anything on bus 0 which makes
the Type 1 sanity checks fail.  Use the DMI BIOS year to
check for newer systems and always assume Type 1 works on them.
I used 2001 as an pretty arbitary cutoff year.

946f2ee5c7 [PATCH] i386/x86-64: Check that MCFG points to an e820 reserved area
This patch introduces a user for the e820_all_mapped function:

There have been several machines that don't have a working MMCONFIG,
often because of a buggy MCFG table in the ACPI bios.  This patch adds a
simple sanity check that detects a whole bunch of these cases, and when
it detects it, linux now boots rather than crash-and-burns.

The accuracy of this detection can in principle be improved if there was
a "is this entire range in e820 with THIS attribute", but no such
function exist and the complexity needed for this is not really worth
it; this simple check already catches most cases anyway.

Introduce a e820_all_mapped() function which checks if the entire range
<start,end> is mapped with type.

This is done by moving the local start variable to the end of each
known-good region; if at the end of the function the start address is
still before end, there must be a part that's not of the correct type;
otherwise it's a good region.

f79e2abb9b [PATCH] sys_sync_file_range()
Remove the recently-added LINUX_FADV_ASYNC_WRITE and LINUX_FADV_WRITE_WAIT
fadvise() additions, do it in a new sys_sync_file_range() syscall instead.
Reasons:

- It's more flexible.  Things which would require two or three syscalls with
  fadvise() can be done in a single syscall.

- Using fadvise() in this manner is something not covered by POSIX.

The patch wires up the syscall for x86.

The sycall is implemented in the new fs/sync.c.  The intention is that we can
move sys_fsync(), sys_fdatasync() and perhaps sys_sync() into there later.

Documentation for the syscall is in fs/sync.c.

A test app (sync_file_range.c) is in
http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/ext3-tools.tar.gz.

The available-to-GPL-modules do_sync_file_range() is for knfsd: "A COMMIT can
say NFS_DATA_SYNC or NFS_FILE_SYNC.  I can skip the ->fsync call for
NFS_DATA_SYNC which is hopefully the more common."

Note: the `async' writeout mode SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE will turn synchronous if
the queue is congested.  This is trivial to fix: add a new flag bit, set
wbc->nonblocking.  But I'm not sure that we want to expose implementation
details down to that level.

Note: it's notable that we can sync an fd which wasn't opened for writing.
Same with fsync() and fdatasync()).

Note: the code takes some care to handle attempts to sync file contents
outside the 16TB offset on 32-bit machines.  It makes such attempts appear to
succeed, for best 32-bit/64-bit compatibility.  Perhaps it should make such
requests fail...
