39b3a79105 [PATCH] i386/x86-64: Generalize X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC flag
Define it for i386 too.

This is a synthetic flag that signifies that the CPU's TSC runs
at a constant P state invariant frequency.

Fix up the logic on x86-64/i386 to set it on all known CPUs.
Use the AMD defined bit to set it on future AMD CPUs.

eca37c18be [PATCH] x86_64: Clean up double fault handling
Since a double fault always implies that kernel data structures are
corrupt, this fault should neither be handed to user mode handling,
nor should the handler allow resuming the faulting code stream (since
architecturally this isn't a fault, but an abort).

Note that this slightly depends on the previously submitted patch
adjusting the prototype of notify_die() (a compiler warning will result
without that other patch).

With Andi Kleen's x86_64 patch to use DMI, and my ia64 to use DMI, there is

instead.

Tested on ia64 2.6.15 kernel plus the previous patch, on a Dell PowerEdge
7250 Itanium2 server, and it now autodetects the IPMI KCS driver as

eb3a72921c [PATCH] kprobes: fix race in recovery of reentrant probe
There is a window where a probe gets removed right after the probe is hit
on some different cpu.  In this case probe handlers can't find a matching
probe instance related to break address.  In this case we need to read the
original instruction at break address to see if that is not a break/int3
instruction and recover safely.

Previous code had a bug where we were not checking for the above race in
case of reentrant probes and the below patch fixes this race.

Tested on IA64, Powerpc, x86_64.

When a kprobes modules is written in such a way that probes are inserted on
itself, then unload of that moudle was not possible due to reference
couning on the same module.

The below patch makes a check and incrementes the module refcount only if

We need to allow modules to probe themself for kprobes performance
measurements

Sometimes we call do_journal_end() with t_refcount == 0.  If quota is

happen as we try to use the current handle for quota operations.  Checks
for t_refcount in journal_begin() fail and we Oops.  We raise t_refcount to
make those checks happy.  We should not cause any bad as all the needed
quota blocks should be already attached to the transaction (they were
attached to the transaction when we allocated those preallocation blocks).

4ee189a926 [PATCH] uml: fix missing KBUILD_BASENAME
2.6.15-mm1 caused kernel-offsets.c to stop compiling with a syntax error in a
header.  The problem was with KBUILD_BASENAME, which didn't get a definition
with the by-hand compilation in the main UML Makefile.

This was OK before since the expansion was syntactically the same as the
KBUILD_BASENAME token.  With -mm1, the expansion is now a quote-delimited
string, so there needs to be a definition of it.

Since kernel-offsets.c is basically the same as other arches' asm-offsets.c,
and those seem to build OK, this patch turns kernel-offsets.c into
asm-offsets.c.  kernel-offsets.c is in arch/um/sys-$(SUBARCH), i.e.  sys-i386
and sys-x86_64, while kbuild expects it to be in arch/um/kernel.
kernel-offsets.c is moved to
arch/um/include/sysdep-$(SUBARCH)/kernel-offsets.h, which is included by
arch/um/kernel/asm-offsets.c.  With that, include/asm-um/asm-offsets.h is
generated automatically.  kernel-offsets.h continues to exist because it needs
to be accessible to userspace UML code, and include/asm-um isn't.  So, a
symlink is made from arch/um/include/kernel-offsets.h to
include/asm-um/asm-offsets.h.
