I had an issue on ia64 where I got a bug in kernel/workqueue because
kzalloc returned a NULL pointer due to the task structure getting too big
for the slab allocator. Usually these cases are caught by the kmalloc
macro in include/linux/slab.h.
Compilation will fail if a too big value is passed to kmalloc.
However, kzalloc uses __kmalloc which has no check for that. This patch
makes __kmalloc bug if a too large entity is requested.

The SMU is the "system controller" chip used by Apple recent G5 machines
including the iMac G5. It drives things like fans, i2c busses, real time
clock, etc...
The current kernel contains a very crude driver that doesn't do much more
than reading the real time clock synchronously. This is a completely
rewritten driver that provides interrupt based command queuing, a userland
interface, and an i2c/smbus driver for accessing the devices hanging off
the SMU i2c busses like temperature sensors. This driver is a basic block
for upcoming work on thermal control for those machines, among others.

The recent iommu fix broke booting on some POWER4 and POWER5 LPAR boxes.
It looks like we have been calling the non LPAR iommu_dev_setup on LPAR

It looks like we just need to hook up the devices iommu_table to the

The numa slab allocator may allocate pages from foreign nodes onto the
lists for a particular node if a node runs out of memory. Inspecting the
slab->nodeid field will not reflect that the page is now in use for the
slabs of another node.
This patch fixes that issue by adding a node field to free_block so that
the caller can indicate which node currently uses a slab.
Also removes the check for the current node from kmalloc_cache_node since
the process may shift later to another node which may lead to an allocation
on another node than intended.

The address passed to io_remap_pfn_range() in hpet_mmap() does not need to

I introduced this particular bug when making io_remap_pfn_range changes a

before my changes __pa() was being executed on an ioremap()ed virtual

In the lead up to 2.6.13 I fixed a large number of reboot problems by

The S4 suspend code for PM_DISK_PLATFORM was also calling device_shutdown

early_setup() calls htab_initialize() which is similar, but not identical
to iSeries_bolt_kernel().
On iSeries the Hypervisor has already inserted some ptes for us, and we
simply have to detect that and bolt them. iSeries_hpte_bolt_or_insert()
implements that logic.
For the case of a non-existing pte we just call iSeries_hpte_insert(). This
appears to work, although it's not entirely equivalent to the old code in
iSeries_make_pte() which panicked if we got a secondary slot. Not sure if
that's important.
Finally we call iSeries_hpte_bolt_or_insert() from create_pte_mapping(),
which is called from htab_initialize() for each lmb region.

Instead of all of this cpu-specific code to remap the kernel
to the correct location, use portable firmware calls to do
this instead.
What we do now is the following in position independant
assembler:
chosen_node = prom_finddevice("/chosen");
prom_mmu_ihandle_cache = prom_getint(chosen_node, "mmu");
vaddr = 4MB_ALIGN(current_text_addr());
prom_translate(vaddr, &paddr_high, &paddr_low, &mode);
prom_boot_mapping_mode = mode;
prom_boot_mapping_phys_high = paddr_high;
prom_boot_mapping_phys_low = paddr_low;
prom_map(-1, 8 * 1024 * 1024, KERNBASE, paddr_low);
and that replaces the massive amount of by-hand TLB probing and
programming we used to do here.
The new code should also handle properly the case where the kernel
is mapped at the correct address already (think: future kexec
support).
Consequently, the bulk of remap_kernel() dies as does the entirety
of arch/sparc64/prom/map.S
We try to share some strings in the PROM library with the ones used
at bootup, and while we're here mark input strings to oplib.h routines
with "const" when appropriate.
There are many more simplifications now possible. For one thing, we
can consolidate the two copies we now have of a lot of cpu setup code
sitting in head.S and trampoline.S.
This is a significant step towards CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC support.
