One of the use cases for the supported cpuid list is to create a "greatest
common denominator" of cpu capabilities in a server farm. As such, it is
useful to be able to get the list without creating a virtual machine first.
Since the code does not depend on the vm in any way, all that is needed is
to move it to the device ioctl handler. The capability identifier is also
changed so that binaries made against -rc1 will fail gracefully.

Eric Sandeen tracked an XFS on ARM corruption bug down to a function
under fs/xfs/ involving some get_unaligned() calls on u64 pointers.
As it turns out, calling ARM's get_unaligned() on a u64 pointer
pointing to the following byte sequence:
80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87
would return ffffffff83828180 (LE mode.) This turns out to be
because of implicit u8 -> int promotion in ARM's implementation of
various helpers for get_unaligned(), causing them to accidentally
return signed instead of unsigned values, which in turn caused the
subsequent casts to unsigned long long in __get_unaligned_8_[bl]e()
to sign-extend the lower words.
Fix by casting the return values of __get_unaligned_[24]_[bl]e()
to unsigned int.

softlockup: fix task state setting
rcu: add support for dynamic ticks and preempt rcu
The 2.6.25 ptrace_bts_config structure in asm-x86/ptrace-abi.h
is defined with u32 types:
#include <asm/types.h>
/* configuration/status structure used in PTRACE_BTS_CONFIG and
PTRACE_BTS_STATUS commands.
*/
struct ptrace_bts_config {
/* requested or actual size of BTS buffer in bytes */
u32 size;
/* bitmask of below flags */
u32 flags;
/* buffer overflow signal */
u32 signal;
/* actual size of bts_struct in bytes */
u32 bts_size;
};
#endif
But u32 is only accessible in asm-x86/types.h if __KERNEL__,
leading to compile errors when ptrace.h is included from
user-space. The double-underscore versions that are exported
to user-space in asm-x86/types.h should be used instead.

I recently stumbled upon a problem in the support for huge pages. If a
program using huge pages does not explicitly unmap them, they remain
mapped (and therefore, are lost) after the program exits.
I observed that the free huge page count in /proc/meminfo decreased when
running my program, and it did not increase after the program exited.
After running the program a few times, no more huge pages could be
allocated.
The reason for this seems to be that the x86 pmd_bad and pud_bad
consider pmd/pud entries having the PSE bit set invalid. I think there
is nothing wrong with this bit being set, it just indicates that the
lowest level of translation has been reached. This bit has to be (and
is) checked after the basic validity of the entry has been checked, like
in this fragment from follow_page() in mm/memory.c:
if (pmd_none(*pmd) || unlikely(pmd_bad(*pmd)))
goto no_page_table;
if (pmd_huge(*pmd)) {
BUG_ON(flags & FOLL_GET);
page = follow_huge_pmd(mm, address, pmd, flags & FOLL_WRITE);
goto out;
}
Note that this code currently doesn't work as intended if the pmd refers
to a huge page, the pmd_huge() check can not be reached if the page is
huge.
Extending pmd_bad() (and, for future 1GB page support, pud_bad()) to
allow for the PSE bit being set fixes this. For similar reasons,
allowing the NX bit being set is necessary, too. I have seen huge pages
having the NX bit set in their pmd entry, which would cause the same
problem.

The KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE constant was mis-named, as we not only map the kernel
text but data, bss and init sections as well.
That name led me on the wrong path with the KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE regression,
because i knew how big of _text_ my images have and i knew about the 40 MB
"text" limit so i wrongly thought to be on the safe side of the 40 MB limit
with my 29 MB of text, while the total image size was slightly above 40 MB.
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
recently the 64-bit allyesconfig bzImage kernel started spontaneously
rebooting during early bootup.
after a few fun hours spent with early init debugging, it turns out
that we've got this rather annoying limit on the size of the kernel
image:
#define KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE (40*1024*1024)
which limit my vmlinux just happened to pass:
text data bss dec hex filename
29703744 4222751 8646224 42572719 2899baf vmlinux
40 MB is 42572719 bytes, so my vmlinux was just 1.5% above this limit :-/
So it happily crashed right in head_64.S, which - as we all know - is
the most debuggable code in the whole architecture ;-)
So increase the limit to allow an up to 128MB kernel image to be mapped.
(should anyone be that crazy or lazy)
We have a full 4K of pagetable (level2_kernel_pgt) allocated for these
mappings already, so there's no RAM overhead and the limit was rather
pointless and arbitrary.

Back in 2.6.17-rc2, a libata module parameter was added for atapi_dmadir.
That's nice, but most SATA devices which need it will tell us about it
in their IDENTIFY PACKET response, as bit-15 of word-62 of the
returned data (as per ATA7, ATA8 specifications).
So for those which specify it, we should automatically use the DMADIR bit.
Otherwise, disc writing will fail by default on many SATA-ATAPI drives.
This patch adds ATA_DFLAG_DMADIR and make ata_dev_configure() set it
if atapi_dmadir is set or identify data indicates DMADIR is necessary.
atapi_xlat() is converted to check ATA_DFLAG_DMADIR before setting
DMADIR.

Not all architectures implement futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(). The default
implementation returns -ENOSYS, which is currently not handled inside of the
futex guts.
Futex PI calls and robust list exits with a held futex result in an endless
loop in the futex code on architectures which have no support.
Fixing up every place where futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() is called would
add a fair amount of extra if/else constructs to the already complex code. It
is also not possible to disable the robust feature before user space tries to
register robust lists.
Compile time disabling is not a good idea either, as there are already
architectures with runtime detection of futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic support.
Detect the functionality at runtime instead by calling
cmpxchg_futex_value_locked() with a NULL pointer from the futex initialization
code. This is guaranteed to fail, but the call of
futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() happens with pagefaults disabled.
On architectures, which use the asm-generic implementation or have a runtime
CPU feature detection, a -ENOSYS return value disables the PI/robust features.
On architectures with a working implementation the call returns -EFAULT and
the PI/robust features are enabled.
The relevant syscalls return -ENOSYS and the robust list exit code is blocked,
when the detection fails.
