0dc952dc3e [PATCH] Page migration: Fix vma flag checking
Currently we do not check for vma flags if sys_move_pages is called to move
individual pages.  If sys_migrate_pages is called to move pages then we
check for vm_flags that indicate a non migratable vma but that still
includes VM_LOCKED and we can migrate mlocked pages.

Extract the vma_migratable check from mm/mempolicy.c, fix it and put it
into migrate.h so that is can be used from both locations.

Problem was spotted by Lee Schermerhorn

69f7c0a1be [PATCH] sched: remove SMT nice
Remove the SMT-nice feature which idles sibling cpus on SMT cpus to
facilitiate nice working properly where cpu power is shared.  The idling of
cpus in the presence of runnable tasks is considered too fragile, easy to
break with outside code, and the complexity of managing this system if an
architecture comes along with many logical cores sharing cpu power will be
unworkable.

Remove the associated per_cpu_gain variable in sched_domains used only by
this code.

Also:

  The reason is that with dynticks enabled, this code breaks without yet
  further tweaks so dynticks brought on the rapid demise of this code.  So
  either we tweak this code or kill it off entirely.  It was Ingo's preference
  to kill it off.  Either way this needs to happen for 2.6.21 since dynticks
  has gone in.

f5f2b13129 [PATCH] msi: sanely support hardware level msi disabling
In some cases when we are not using msi we need a way to ensure that the
hardware does not have an msi capability enabled.  Currently the code has been
calling disable_msi_mode to try and achieve that.  However disable_msi_mode
has several other side effects and is only available when msi support is
compiled in so it isn't really appropriate.

Instead this patch implements pci_msi_off which disables all msi and msix
capabilities unconditionally with no additional side effects.

pci_disable_device was redundantly clearing the bus master enable flag and
clearing the msi enable bit.  A device that is not allowed to perform bus
mastering operations cannot generate intx or msi interrupt messages as those
are essentially a special case of dma, and require bus mastering.  So the call
in pci_disable_device to disable msi capabilities was redundant.

quirk_pcie_pxh also called disable_msi_mode and is updated to use pci_msi_off.

bccf2150fe KVM: Per-vcpu inodes
Allocate a distinct inode for every vcpu in a VM.  This has the following
benefits:

 - the filp cachelines are no longer bounced when f_count is incremented on
   every ioctl()
 - the API and internal code are distinctly clearer; for example, on the
   KVM_GET_REGS ioctl, there is no need to copy the vcpu number from
   userspace and then copy the registers back; the vcpu identity is derived
   from the fd used to make the call

Right now the performance benefits are completely theoretical since (a) we
don't support more than one vcpu per VM and (b) virtualization hardware
inefficiencies completely everwhelm any cacheline bouncing effects.  But
both of these will change, and we need to prepare the API today.

f17abe9a44 KVM: Create an inode per virtual machine
This avoids having filp->f_op and the corresponding inode->i_fop different,
which is a little unorthodox.

The ioctl list is split into two: global kvm ioctls and per-vm ioctls.  A new
ioctl, KVM_CREATE_VM, is used to create VMs and return the VM fd.

This patch splits the vlan_group struct into a multi-allocated struct. On

8488df894d [NET]: Fix bugs in "Whether sock accept queue is full" checking
when I use linux TCP socket, and find there is a bug in function
sk_acceptq_is_full().

	When a new SYN comes, TCP module first checks its validation. If valid,
send SYN,ACK to the client and add the sock to the syn hash table. Next
time if received the valid ACK for SYN,ACK from the client. server will
accept this connection and increase the sk->sk_ack_backlog -- which is
done in function tcp_check_req().We check wether acceptq is full in
function tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock().

Consider an example:

 After listen(sockfd, 1) system call, sk->sk_max_ack_backlog is set to
1. As we know, sk->sk_ack_backlog is initialized to 0. Assuming accept()
system call is not invoked now.

1. 1st connection comes. invoke sk_acceptq_is_full(). sk-
>sk_ack_backlog=0 sk->sk_max_ack_backlog=1, function return 0 accept
this connection. Increase the sk->sk_ack_backlog
2. 2nd connection comes. invoke sk_acceptq_is_full(). sk-
>sk_ack_backlog=1 sk->sk_max_ack_backlog=1, function return 0 accept
this connection. Increase the sk->sk_ack_backlog
3. 3rd connection comes. invoke sk_acceptq_is_full(). sk-
>sk_ack_backlog=2 sk->sk_max_ack_backlog=1, function return 1. Refuse
this connection.

I think it has bugs. after listen system call. sk->sk_max_ack_backlog=1
but now it can accept 2 connections.

032af1ce16 libata-core: Fix simplex handling
The initial simplex handling code is fooled if you suspend and resume.
This also causes problems with some single channel controllers which
claim to be simplex.

The fix is fairly simple, instead of keeping a flag to remember if we
gave away the simplex channel we remember the actual owner. As the owner
is always part of the host_set we don't even need a refcount.

Knowing the owner also means we can reassign simplex DMA channels in
future hotplug code etc if we need to

 - get_unmapped_area must be called with the nested file struct to handle
   the sfd->file->f_ops->get_unmapped_area == NULL case.
 - The fsync f_op must be wrapped since it is specified in the hugetlbfs
   f_ops.

This is based on proposed fixes from Eric Biederman that were debugged and
tested by me.  Without it, attempting to use hugetlb shared memory segments
on powerpc (and likely ia64) will kill your box.

17f0cd2f35 [PATCH] Fix buffer overflow and races in capi debug functions
The CAPI trace debug functions were using a fixed size buffer, which can be
overflowed if wrong formatted CAPI messages were sent to the kernel capi
layer.  The code was also not protected against multiple callers.  This fix
bug 8028.

Additionally the patch make the CAPI trace functions optional.

1463fdbcc7 [PATCH] uml: pte_mkread fix
Fix the fact that pte_mkread set _PAGE_RW instead of _PAGE_USER (the logic is
copied from i386 in most place, so it is really as bad as you're thinking).

Thus currently page tables are more permissive than they should.

Such a change may trigger other latent bugs, so be careful with this.

232ea4d69d [PATCH] throttle_vm_writeout(): don't loop on GFP_NOFS and GFP_NOIO allocations
throttle_vm_writeout() is designed to wait for the dirty levels to subside.
But if the caller holds IO or FS locks, we might be holding up that writeout.

So change it to take a single nap to give other devices a chance to clean some
memory, then return.
