The PCI-E slot on T1000 connects directly to the Fire PCI chip with no
intervening bridges visible in the OBP tree.
Unfortunately the bus numbering of the device in that slot is
different (2) from the PCI host controller (0), and thus the
pci_bus_{read,write}_config_*() calls don't work out.
Complicating things further the Fire PCI controller has no config
space it responds to either.
For now treat this case specially so that devices in the slot work.
Longer term we need to perhaps cons up a dummy bridge between the Fire
and the PCI-E slot so that the bus hierarchy is complete inside of the
kernel and thus the bus numbering all works out right.

For the case where the source is not aligned modulo 8
we don't use load-twins to suck the data in and this
kills performance since normal loads allocate in the
L1 cache (unlike load-twin) and thus big memcpys swipe
the entire L1 D-cache.
We need to allocate a register window to implement this
properly, but that actually simplifies a lot of things
as a nice side-effect.

TCP V4 sequence numbers are 32bits, and RFC 793 assumed a 250 KHz clock.
In order to follow network speed increase, we can use a faster clock, but
we should limit this clock so that the delay between two rollovers is
greater than MSL (TCP Maximum Segment Lifetime : 2 minutes)
Choosing a 64 nsec clock should be OK, since the rollovers occur every
274 seconds.

For some reason old binutils genertate larger headers so increase the text
offset of the vdso to avoid linker errors.
Roland McGrath explains:
"There are extra symbols in the '.dynsym' section that are responsible
for the size difference (They also cause corresponding inflation in
'.gnu.version')
Older ld's wrongly generated these unneeded symbols in .dynsym. This
was fixed not all that long ago (2006); binutils-2.17.50.0.6 might be
the first fixed version, but I have not verified for sure where the
cutoff was.
The unneeded symbols et al from old ld add almost 700 bytes excess.
This limits fairly tightly the amount by which the actual text and
data in the vDSO can grow in the future without pushing the whole
file over 4kb. If it does grow later on, we should consider changing
the layout with a config option or something to pack it better
without that padding, when building the kernel with newer binutils."

On a POWER6 machine running 2.6.23-rc8 I sometimes see the following error:
xics_set_affinity: No online cpus in the mask 00000000,00000000,00000000,00000001 for irq 20
In a desperate attempt to get a changelog entry in 2.6.23, I took a look
into it.
It turns out we are passing a real and not a virtual irq into
get_irq_server. This works for the case where hwirq < NR_IRQS and we
set virq = hwirq. In my case however hwirq = 590082 and we try and
access irq_desc[590082], slightly past the end at 512 entries.

This reverts commit b394e43e99.
Lachlan McIlroy says:
It tried to fix an issue where log replay is replaying an inode cluster
initialisation transaction that should not be replayed because the inode
cluster on disk is more up to date. Since we don't log file sizes (we
rely on inode flushing to get them to disk) then we can't just replay
all the transations in the log and expect the inode to be completely
restored. We lose file size updates. Unfortunately this fix is causing
more (serious) problems than it is fixing.

Calling handle_futex_death in exit_robust_list for the different robust
mutexes of a thread basically frees the mutex. Another thread might grab
the lock immediately which updates the next pointer of the mutex.
fetch_robust_entry over the next pointer might therefore branch into the
robust mutex list of a different thread. This can cause two problems: 1)
some mutexes held by the dead thread are not getting freed and 2) some
mutexs held by a different thread are freed.
The next point need to be read before calling handle_futex_death.

The process with vc->vt_pid is signaled before vc->vt_newvt is set.
This causes the switch to fail when triggered by the monitoing process
because the target is still -1.

reset vt_newvt to -1, so this works for that case too. - Linus ]

The comment being removed by this patch is incorrect and misleading.
In the following situation:
1. load ...
2. store 1 -> X
3. wmb
4. rmb
5. load a <- Y
6. store ...
4 will only ensure ordering of 1 with 5.
3 will only ensure ordering of 2 with 6.
Further, a CPU with strictly in-order stores will still only provide that
2 and 6 are ordered (effectively, it is the same as a weakly ordered CPU
with wmb after every store).
In all cases, 5 may still be executed before 2 is visible to other CPUs!
The additional piece of the puzzle that mb() provides is the store/load
ordering, which fundamentally cannot be achieved with any combination of
rmb()s and wmb()s.
This can be an unexpected result if one expected any sort of global ordering
guarantee to barriers (eg. that the barriers themselves are sequentially
consistent with other types of barriers). However sfence or lfence barriers
need only provide an ordering partial ordering of memory operations -- Consider
that wmb may be implemented as nothing more than inserting a special barrier
entry in the store queue, or, in the case of x86, it can be a noop as the store
queue is in order. And an rmb may be implemented as a directive to prevent
subsequent loads only so long as their are no previous outstanding loads (while
there could be stores still in store queues).
I can actually see the occasional load/store being reordered around lfence on
my core2. That doesn't prove my above assertions, but it does show the comment
is wrong (unless my program is -- can send it out by request).
So:
mb() and smp_mb() always have and always will require a full mfence
or lock prefixed instruction on x86. And we should remove this comment.
