bc5e81a151 [PATCH] x86_64 irq: Add constants for the reserved IRQ vectors.
For the ISA irqs we reserve 16 vectors.  This patch adds constants for
those vectors and modifies the code to use them.  Making the code a
little clearer and making it possible to move these vectors in the future.

95492e4646 [PATCH] x86: rewrite SMP TSC sync code
make the TSC synchronization code more robust, and unify it between x86_64 and
i386.

The biggest change is the removal of the 'fix up TSCs' code on x86_64 and
i386, in some rare cases it was /causing/ time-warps on SMP systems.

The new code only checks for TSC asynchronity - and if it can prove a
time-warp (if it can observe the TSC going backwards when going from one CPU
to another within a critical section), then the TSC clock-source is turned
off.

The TSC synchronization-checking code also got moved into a separate file.

ee4eff6ff6 [PATCH] x86-64: update IO-APIC dest field to 8-bit for xAPIC
On the Unisys ES7000/ONE system, we encountered a problem where performing
a kexec reboot or dump on any cell other than cell 0 causes the system
timer to stop working, resulting in a hang during timer calibration in the
new kernel.

We traced the problem to one line of code in disable_IO_APIC(), which needs
to restore the timer's IO-APIC configuration before rebooting.  The code is
currently using the 4-bit physical destination field, rather than using the
8-bit logical destination field, and it cuts off the upper 4 bits of the
timer's APIC ID.  If we change this to use the logical destination field,
the timer works and we can kexec on the upper cells.  This was tested on
two different cells (0 and 2) in an ES7000/ONE system.

For reference, the relevant Intel xAPIC spec is kept at
ftp://download.intel.com/design/chipsets/e8501/datashts/30962001.pdf,
specifically on page 334.

a98f0dd34d [PATCH] x86-64: Allow to run a program when a machine check event is detected
When a machine check event is detected (including a AMD RevF threshold
overflow event) allow to run a "trigger" program. This allows user space
to react to such events sooner.

The trigger is configured using a new trigger entry in the
machinecheck sysfs interface. It is currently shared between
all CPUs.

I also fixed the AMD threshold handler to run the machine
check polling code immediately to actually log any events
that might have caused the threshold interrupt.

Also added some documentation for the mce sysfs interface.

53fee04f31 [PATCH] x86-64: Fix fake numa for x86_64 machines with big IO hole
This patch resolves the issue of running with numa=fake=X on kernel command
line on x86_64 machines that have big IO hole.  While calculating the size
of each node now we look at the total hole size in that range.

Previously there were nodes that only had IO holes in them causing kernel
boot problems.  We now use the NODE_MIN_SIZE (64MB) as the minimum size of
memory that any node must have.  We reduce the number of allocated nodes if
the number of nodes specified on kernel command line results in any node
getting memory smaller than NODE_MIN_SIZE.

This change allows the extra memory to be incremented in NODE_MIN_SIZE
granule and uniformly distribute among as many nodes (called big nodes) as
possible.

5809f9d442 [PATCH] x86-64: get rid of ARCH_HAVE_XTIME_LOCK
ARCH_HAVE_XTIME_LOCK is used by x86_64 arch .  This arch needs to place a
read only copy of xtime_lock into vsyscall page.  This read only copy is
named __xtime_lock, and xtime_lock is defined in
arch/x86_64/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S as an alias.  So the declaration of
xtime_lock in kernel/timer.c was guarded by ARCH_HAVE_XTIME_LOCK define,
defined to true on x86_64.

We can get same result with _attribute__((weak)) in the declaration. linker
should do the job.

Remove the statically allocated memory to NUMA node hash map in favor of a

This patch has the nice side effect in that it allows the hash map to grow
for systems with large amounts of memory (256GB - 1TB), but suffer from
having small PCI space tacked onto the boot node (which is somewhere
between 192MB to 512MB on the ES7000).

0812a579c9 [PATCH] x86-64: Add __copy_from_user_nocache
This does user copies in fs write() into the page cache with write combining.
This pushes the destination out of the CPU's cache, but allows higher bandwidth
in some case.

The theory is that the page cache data is usually not touched by the
CPU again and it's better to not pollute the cache with it. Also it is a little
faster.

bbd4bb9aa7 [PATCH] x86_64: 2048-byte command line
Current implementation allows the kernel to receive up to 255 characters from
the bootloader.  While the boot protocol allows greater buffers to be sent.

In current environment, the command-line is used in order to specify many
values, including suspend/resume, module arguments, splash, initramfs and
more.

255 characters are not enough anymore.

After edd issue was fixed, and dynammic kernel command-line patch was
accepted, we can extend the COMMAND_LINE_SIZE without runtime memory
requirements.

4564f9e5fd [PATCH] consolidate line discipline number definitions
The line discipline numbers N_* are currently defined for each architecture
individually, but (except for a seeming mistake) identically, in
asm/termios.h.  There is no obvious reason why these numbers should be
architecture specific, nor any apparent relationship with the termios
structure.  The total number of these, NR_LDISCS, is defined in linux/tty.h
anyway.  So I propose the following patch which moves the definitions of
the individual line disciplines to linux/tty.h too.

Three of these numbers (N_MASC, N_PROFIBUS_FDL, and N_SMSBLOCK) are unused
in the current kernel, but the patch still keeps the complete set in case
there are plans to use them yet.

4ec031166f [PATCH] kill eth_io_copy_and_sum()
On all targets that sucker boils down to memcpy_fromio(sbk->data, from, len).
The function name is highly misguiding (it _never_ does any checksums), the
last argument is just a noise and simply expanding the call to memcpy_fromio()
gives shorter and more readable source.  For a lot of reasons it has almost
no remaining users, so it's better to just outright kill it.

8a102eed9c [PATCH] PM: Fix SMP races in the freezer
Currently, to tell a task that it should go to the refrigerator, we set the
PF_FREEZE flag for it and send a fake signal to it.  Unfortunately there
are two SMP-related problems with this approach.  First, a task running on
another CPU may be updating its flags while the freezer attempts to set
PF_FREEZE for it and this may leave the task's flags in an inconsistent
state.  Second, there is a potential race between freeze_process() and
refrigerator() in which freeze_process() running on one CPU is reading a
task's PF_FREEZE flag while refrigerator() running on another CPU has just
set PF_FROZEN for the same task and attempts to reset PF_FREEZE for it.  If
the refrigerator wins the race, freeze_process() will state that PF_FREEZE
hasn't been set for the task and will set it unnecessarily, so the task
will go to the refrigerator once again after it's been thawed.

To solve first of these problems we need to stop using PF_FREEZE to tell
tasks that they should go to the refrigerator.  Instead, we can introduce a
special TIF_*** flag and use it for this purpose, since it is allowed to
change the other tasks' TIF_*** flags and there are special calls for it.

To avoid the freeze_process()-refrigerator() race we can make
freeze_process() to always check the task's PF_FROZEN flag after it's read
its "freeze" flag.  We should also make sure that refrigerator() will
always reset the task's "freeze" flag after it's set PF_FROZEN for it.

Support for Core CPUs was broken in two ways in speedstep-lib: for x86_64,
we missed a MSR definition; for both x86_64 and i386, the FSB calculation
was wrong by four (it's a quad-pumped bus). Also increase the accuracy
of the calculation.

08c183f31b [PATCH] sched: add option to serialize load balancing
Large sched domains can be very expensive to scan.  Add an option SD_SERIALIZE
to the sched domain flags.  If that flag is set then we make sure that no
other such domain is being balanced.

592ee3a5e5 [PATCH] termios: Enable new style termios ioctls on x86-64
This turns on the split input/output speed features and arbitary baud rate
handling for the x86-64 platform.  Nothing should break if you use existing
standard speeds.  If you use the new speed stuff then you may see some
drivers failing to report the speed changes properly in error cases.  This
will be worked on further.  For the working cases this all seems happy.
I'll post a test suite used to test the basic stuff as well.

Patches for i386 will follow when I get a moment but are basically the
same.  If people could patch/test-suite other architectures and submit them
that would be great.

be90038a24 [PATCH] tty: preparatory structures for termios revamp
In order to sort out our struct termios and add proper speed control we need
to separate the kernel and user termios structures.  Glibc is fine but the
other libraries rely on the kernel exported struct termios and we need to
extend this without breaking the ABI/API

To do so we add a struct ktermios which is the kernel view of a termios
structure and overlaps the struct termios with extra fields on the end for
now.  (That limitation will go away in later patches).  Some platforms (eg
alpha) planned ahead and thus use the same struct for both, others did not.

This just adds the structures but does not use them, it seems a sensible
splitting point for bisect if there are compile failures (not that I expect
them)

c31a0bf3e1 [PATCH] Generic BUG for x86-64
This makes x86-64 use the generic BUG machinery.

The main advantage in using the generic BUG machinery for x86-64 is that
the inlined overhead of BUG is just the ud2a instruction; the file+line
information are no longer inlined into the instruction stream.  This
reduces cache pollution.

d3fa72e455 [PATCH] Pass struct dev pointer to dma_cache_sync()
Pass struct dev pointer to dma_cache_sync()

dma_cache_sync() is ill-designed in that it does not have a struct device
pointer argument which makes proper support for systems that consist of a
mix of coherent and non-coherent DMA devices hard.  Change dma_cache_sync
to take a struct device pointer as first argument and fix all its callers
to pass it.
