58a69c367c [IA64] Fix wrong /proc/iomem on SGI Altix
In sn_io_slot_fixup(), the parent is re-set from the bus to
io(port|mem)_resource because the address is changed in a way that it's not
child of the bus any more.

However, only the root is set but not the parent/child/sibling relationship in
the resource tree which causes 'cat /proc/iomem' to stop after this memory
area. Depding on the poition in the tree the iomem may be nearly completely
empty.

0bdfc19007 [IA64] Altix: ioremap vga_console_iobase
When booting an SN system without specifing a console
(i.e., no "console=" on boot line), the system will hang during
boot at the point where /sbin/init is run.

The problem is that vga_console_iobase is not converted to a
virtual address before storing in io_space[0].mmio_base.
The conversion was happening in sn_scan_pcdp(), but not in
setup_vga_console().

c5e83e3f42 [IA64] Fix get_model_name() for mixed cpu type systems
If a system consists of mixed processor types, kmalloc()
can be called before the per-cpu data page is initialized.
If the slab contains sufficient memory, then kmalloc() works
ok. However, if the slabs are empty, slab calls the memory
allocator. This requires per-cpu data (NODE_DATA()) & the
cpu dies.

Also noted by Russ Anderson who had a very similar patch.

a3f5c338b9 [IA64] min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation fix
We have seen bad_pte_print when testing crashdump on an SN machine in
recent 2.6.20 kernel.  There are tons of bad pte print (pfn < max_low_pfn)
reports when the crash kernel boots up, all those reported bad pages
are inside initmem range; That is because if the crash kernel code and
data happens to be at the beginning of the 1st node. build_node_maps in
discontig.c will bypass reserved regions with filter_rsvd_memory. Since
min_low_pfn is calculated in build_node_map, so in this case, min_low_pfn
will be greater than kernel code and data.

Because pages inside initmem are freed and reused later, we saw
pfn_valid check fail on those pages.

I think this theoretically happen on a normal kernel. When I check
min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation in contig.c and discontig.c.
I found more issues than this.

1. min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation is inconsistent between
contig.c and discontig.c,
min_low_pfn is calculated as the first page number of boot memmap in
contig.c (Why? Though this may work at the most of the time, I don't
think it is the right logic). It is calculated as the lowest physical
memory page number bypass reserved regions in discontig.c.
max_low_pfn is calculated include reserved regions in contig.c. It is
calculated exclude reserved regions in discontig.c.

2. If kernel code and data region is happen to be at the begin or the
end of physical memory, when min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation is
bypassed kernel code and data, pages in initmem will report bad.

3. initrd is also in reserved regions, if it is at the begin or at the
end of physical memory, kernel will refuse to reuse the memory. Because
the virt_addr_valid check in free_initrd_mem.

So it is better to fix and clean up those issues.
Calculate min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn in a consistent way.

8140a90ec1 ACPI: IA64: fix allnoconfig build
The evils of Kconfig's select bite us once again...
ia64/Kconfig selects ACPI, which depends on PM.
But select ignores dependencies, allnoconfig
chooses CONFIG_PM=n, and thus the menu of sub-options
under ACPI vanish, which breaks the build.

Manually select PM along with ACPI for now.
Some day, we should delete them both, or fix select.

http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au/archives/linux-ia64/0307/6108.html

The current TLB recovery code is recovering from the duplicate itr.d

cee87af2a5 [IA64] kexec: Use EFI_LOADER_DATA for ELF core header
The address where the ELF core header is stored is passed to the secondary
kernel as a kernel command line option.  The memory area for this header is
also marked as a separate EFI memory descriptor on ia64.

The separate EFI memory descriptor is at the moment of the type
EFI_UNUSABLE_MEMORY.  With such a type the secondary kernel skips over the
entire memory granule (config option, 16M or 64M) when detecting memory.
If we are lucky we will just lose some memory, but if we happen to have
data in the same granule (such as an initramfs image), then this data will
never get mapped and the kernel bombs out when trying to access it.

So this is an attempt to fix this by changing the EFI memory descriptor
type into EFI_LOADER_DATA.  This type is the same type used for the kernel
data and for initramfs.  In the secondary kernel we then handle the ELF
core header data the same way as we handle the initramfs image.

This patch contains the kernel changes to make this happen.  Pretty
straightforward, we reserve the area in reserve_memory().  The address for
the area comes from the kernel command line and the size comes from the
specialized EFI parsing function vmcore_find_descriptor_size().

The kexec-tools-testing code for this can be found here:

41d5e5d73e [IA64] permon use-after-free fix
Perfmon associates vmalloc()ed memory with a file descriptor, and installs
a vma mapping that memory.  Unfortunately, the vm_file field is not filled
in, so processes with mappings to that memory do not prevent the file from
being closed and the memory freed.  This results in use-after-free bugs and
multiple freeing of pages, etc.

I saw this bug on an Altix on SLES9.  Haven't reproduced upstream but it
looks like the same issue is there.

Make saved_max_pfn point to max_pfn of entire system.

Without this patch is so that vmcore is zero length on ia64.  This is
because saved_max_pfn was wrongly being set to the max_pfn of the crash
kernel's address space, rather than the max_pfg on the physical memory of
the machine - the whole purpose of vmcore is to access physical memory that
is not part of the crash kernel's addresss space.

3fd0b2d9ad ACPI: Altix: reinitialize acpi tables
To provide compatibilty with SN kernels that do and do not
have ACPI IO support, the SN PROM must build different
versions of some ACPI tables based on which kernel is booting.
As such, the tables may have to change at kernel boot time.
By default, prior to kernel boot, the PROM builds an empty
DSDT (header only) and no SSDTs. If an ACPI capable kernel
boots, the kernel will notify the PROM, at platform setup time,
and the PROM will build full DSDT and SSDT tables.

With the latest changes to acpi_table_init(), the table lengths
are saved, and when our PROM changes them, the changes are not seen,
and the kernel will crash on boot. Because of issues with kexec support,
we are not able to create the tables prior to acpi_table_init().
As a result, we are making a second call to acpi_table_init() to
process the rebuilt DSDT and SSDTs.

0b4d414714 [PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctl
The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name.  Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.

I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.

So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.

the ABI conflict.

79eec3d3d9 [PATCH] sysctl: sn: remove sysctl ABI BREAKAGE
By not using the enumeration in sysctl.h (or even understanding it) the SN
platform placed their arch specific xpc directory on top of CTL_KERN and only
because they didn't have 4 entries in their xpc directory got lucky and didn't
break glibc.

This is totally irresponsible.  So this patch entirely removes sys_sysctl
support from their sysctl code.  Hopefully they don't have ascii name
conflicts as well.

And now that they have no ABI numbers add them to the end instead of the
sysctl list instead of the head so nothing else will be overridden.

5dfe4c964a [PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 2
Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const".  Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data.  In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

Leave s390 copy because of important absence of CONFIG_VT, but remove

85cc9b1144 [PATCH] sn2: use static ->proc_fops
fix-rmmod-read-write-races-in-proc-entries.patch doesn't want dynamically
allocated ->proc_fops, because it will set it to NULL at module unload time.

Regardless of module status, switch to statically allocated ->proc_fops which
leads to simpler code without wrappers.

AFAICS, also fix the following bug: "sn_force_interrupt" proc entry set
->write for itself, but was created with 0444 permissions. Change to 0644.

d4d23add3a [PATCH] Common compat_sys_sysinfo
I noticed that almost all architectures implemented exactly the same
sys32_sysinfo...  except parisc, where a bug was to be found in handling of
the uptime.  So let's remove a whole whack of code for fun and profit.
Cribbed compat_sys_sysinfo from x86_64's implementation, since I figured it
would be the best tested.

This patch incorporates Arnd's suggestion of not using set_fs/get_fs, but
instead extracting out the common code from sys_sysinfo.

66701b1499 [PATCH] optional ZONE_DMA: introduce CONFIG_ZONE_DMA
This patch simply defines CONFIG_ZONE_DMA for all arches.  We later do special
things with CONFIG_ZONE_DMA after the VM and an arch are prepared to work
without ZONE_DMA.

CONFIG_ZONE_DMA can be defined in two ways depending on how an architecture
handles ISA DMA.

First if CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA is set by the arch then we know that the arch
needs ZONE_DMA because ISA DMA devices are supported.  We can catch this in
mm/Kconfig and do not need to modify arch code.

Second, arches may use ZONE_DMA in an unknown way.  We set CONFIG_ZONE_DMA for
all arches that do not set CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA in order to insure backwards
compatibility.  The arches may later undefine ZONE_DMA if their arch code has
been verified to not depend on ZONE_DMA.
