879acca58a [S390] cio: introduce cio_settle
This patch introduces a proc file cio_settle. A write request to
this file is blocked until all queued cio actions are handled.

This will allow userspace to wait for pending work affecting
device availability after changing cio_ignore or the hardware

b525c06cdb thinkpad-acpi: lock down video output state access
Given the right combination of ThinkPad and X.org, just reading the
video output control state is enough to hard-crash X.org.

Until the day I somehow find out a model or BIOS cut date to not
provide this feature to ThinkPads that can do video switching through
X RandR, change permissions so that only processes with CAP_SYS_ADMIN
can access any sort of video output control state.

This bug could be considered a local DoS I suppose, as it allows any
non-privledged local user to cause some versions of X.org to
hard-crash some ThinkPads.

1431559200 x86, mm: Allow highmem user page tables to be disabled at boot time
Distros generally (I looked at Debian, RHEL5 and SLES11) seem to
enable CONFIG_HIGHPTE for any x86 configuration which has highmem
enabled. This means that the overhead applies even to machines which
have a fairly modest amount of high memory and which therefore do not
really benefit from allocating PTEs in high memory but still pay the
price of the additional mapping operations.

Running kernbench on a 4G box I found that with CONFIG_HIGHPTE=y but
no actual highptes being allocated there was a reduction in system
time used from 59.737s to 55.9s.

With CONFIG_HIGHPTE=y and highmem PTEs being allocated:
  Average Optimal load -j 4 Run (std deviation):
  Elapsed Time 175.396 (0.238914)
  User Time 515.983 (5.85019)
  System Time 59.737 (1.26727)
  Percent CPU 263.8 (71.6796)
  Context Switches 39989.7 (4672.64)
  Sleeps 42617.7 (246.307)

With CONFIG_HIGHPTE=y but with no highmem PTEs being allocated:
  Average Optimal load -j 4 Run (std deviation):
  Elapsed Time 174.278 (0.831968)
  User Time 515.659 (6.07012)
  System Time 55.9 (1.07799)
  Percent CPU 263.8 (71.266)
  Context Switches 39929.6 (4485.13)
  Sleeps 42583.7 (373.039)

This patch allows the user to control the allocation of PTEs in
highmem from the command line ("userpte=nohigh") but retains the
status-quo as the default.

It is possible that some simple heuristic could be developed which
allows auto-tuning of this option however I don't have a sufficiently
large machine available to me to perform any particularly meaningful
experiments. We could probably handwave up an argument for a threshold
at 16G of total RAM.

Assuming 768M of lowmem we have 196608 potential lowmem PTE
pages. Each page can map 2M of RAM in a PAE-enabled configuration,
meaning a maximum of 384G of RAM could potentially be mapped using
lowmem PTEs.

Even allowing generous factor of 10 to account for other required
lowmem allocations, generous slop to account for page sharing (which
reduces the total amount of RAM mappable by a given number of PT
pages) and other innacuracies in the estimations it would seem that
even a 32G machine would not have a particularly pressing need for
highmem PTEs. I think 32G could be considered to be at the upper bound
of what might be sensible on a 32 bit machine (although I think in
practice 64G is still supported).

It's seems questionable if HIGHPTE is even a win for any amount of RAM
you would sensibly run a 32 bit kernel on rather than going 64 bit.

Sometimes we need _CRS information even if we only have one host bridge,
e.g., https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/341681

Most of these systems are relatively new, so this patch turns on

c39fae1416 PCI PM: Make it possible to force using INTx for PCIe PME signaling
Apparently, some machines may have problems with PCI run-time power
management if MSIs are used for the native PCIe PME signaling.  In
particular, on the MSI Wind U-100 PCIe PME interrupts are not
generated by a PCIe root port after a resume from suspend to RAM, if
the system wake-up was triggered by a PME from the device attached to
this port.  [It doesn't help to free the interrupt on suspend and
request it back on resume, even if that is done along with disabling
the MSI and re-enabling it, respectively.]  However, if INTx
interrupts are used for this purpose on the same machine, everything
works just fine.

For this reason, add a kernel command line switch allowing one to
request that MSIs be not used for the native PCIe PME signaling,
introduce a DMI table allowing us to blacklist machines that need
this switch to be set by default and put the MSI Wind U-100 into this
table.

c7f486567c PCI PM: PCIe PME root port service driver
PCIe native PME detection mechanism is based on interrupts generated
by root ports or event collectors every time a PCIe device sends a
PME message upstream.

Once a PME message has been sent by an endpoint device and received
by its root port (or event collector in the case of root complex
integrated endpoints), the Requester ID from the message header is
registered in the root port's Root Status register.  At the same
time, the PME Status bit of the Root Status register is set to
indicate that there's a PME to handle.  If PCIe PME interrupt is
enabled for the root port, it generates an interrupt once the PME
Status has been set.  After receiving the interrupt, the kernel can
identify the PCIe device that generated the PME using the Requester
ID from the root port's Root Status register. [For details, see PCI
Express Base Specification, Rev. 2.0.]

Implement a driver for the PCIe PME root port service working in
accordance with the above description.

Based on a patch from Shaohua Li <shaohua.li@intel.com>.

pinout is almost identical to the mb5 quirk, except for no microphone and
the line-in mixer controls being on a different index. Everything works in
2ch mode, but as I am not sure what needs to be changed for 6ch mode, or
whether the Mac Mini's chip supports 6ch mode, I have simply duplicated
the code from the mb5 quirk for the mac mini chmode management. The new
model parameter for this quirk is "macmini3".

4b3073e1c5 MM: Pass a PTE pointer to update_mmu_cache() rather than the PTE itself
On VIVT ARM, when we have multiple shared mappings of the same file
in the same MM, we need to ensure that we have coherency across all
copies.  We do this via make_coherent() by making the pages
uncacheable.

This used to work fine, until we allowed highmem with highpte - we
now have a page table which is mapped as required, and is not available
for modification via update_mmu_cache().

Ralf Beache suggested getting rid of the PTE value passed to
update_mmu_cache():

  On MIPS update_mmu_cache() calls __update_tlb() which walks pagetables
  to construct a pointer to the pte again.  Passing a pte_t * is much
  more elegant.  Maybe we might even replace the pte argument with the
  pte_t?

Ben Herrenschmidt would also like the pte pointer for PowerPC:

  Passing the ptep in there is exactly what I want.  I want that
  -instead- of the PTE value, because I have issue on some ppc cases,
  for I$/D$ coherency, where set_pte_at() may decide to mask out the
  _PAGE_EXEC.

So, pass in the mapped page table pointer into update_mmu_cache(), and
remove the PTE value, updating all implementations and call sites to
suit.

Includes a fix from Stephen Rothwell:

d944d549aa ARM: allow alignment fault mode to be configured at kernel boot
Some glibc versions intentionally create lots of alignment faults in
their gconv code, which if not fixed up, results in segfaults during
boot.  This can prevent systems booting properly.

There is no clear hard-configurable default for this; the desired
default depends on the nature of the userspace which is going to be
booted.

So, provide a way for the alignment fault handler to be configured via
the kernel command line.

ca2107c9d6 x86, numa: Remove configurable node size support for numa emulation
Now that numa=fake=<size>[MG] is implemented, it is possible to remove
configurable node size support.  The command-line parsing was already
broken (numa=fake=*128, for example, would not work) and since fake nodes
are now interleaved over physical nodes, this support is no longer
required.

8df5bb34de x86, numa: Add fixed node size option for numa emulation
numa=fake=N specifies the number of fake nodes, N, to partition the
system into and then allocates them by interleaving over physical nodes.
This requires knowledge of the system capacity when attempting to
allocate nodes of a certain size: either very large nodes to benchmark
scalability of code that operates on individual nodes, or very small
nodes to find bugs in the VM.

This patch introduces numa=fake=<size>[MG] so it is possible to specify
the size of each node to allocate.  When used, nodes of the size
specified will be allocated and interleaved over the set of physical
nodes.

FAKE_NODE_MIN_SIZE was also moved to the more-appropriate
include/asm/numa_64.h.

69a6a0b38a dccp: allow probing of CCID-array length
This fixes a problem in the DCCP getsockopt() API: currently there is no way
for a user to a priori know the number of built-in CCIDs, other than trying
DCCP_SOCKOPT_AVAILABLE_CCIDS in a loop, incrementing the option length until
EINVAL is no longer returned.

This patch truncates the array to the user-provided length. No copy is made
when the length is <= 0.

Due to the length restriction in do_dccp_getsockopt() to sizeof(int), the
minimum array length remains 4, which is a reasonable default (only 3
CCIDs, CCID-2..4, are currently defined).

d3f620b2c4 fsldma: simplify IRQ probing and handling
The IRQ probing is needlessly complex. All off the 83xx device trees in
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/ specify 5 interrupts per DMA controller: one for the
controller, and one for each channel. These interrupts are all attached to
the same IRQ line.

This causes an interesting situation if two channels interrupt at the same
time. The per-controller handler will handle the first channel, and the
per-channel handler will handle the remaining channels.

Instead of this mess, we fix the bug in the per-controller handler, and
make it handle all channels that generated an interrupt. When a
per-controller handler is specified in the device tree, we prefer to use
the shared handler instead of the per-channel handler.

The 85xx/86xx controllers do not have a per-controller interrupt, and
instead use a per-channel interrupt. This behavior has not been changed.

resolution in their caches), we have to flush via the correct
virtual address to prepare pages for DMA.  On some architectures
(like arm) we cannot prevent the CPU from doing data movein along
the alias (and thus giving stale read data), so we not only have to
introduce a flush API to push dirty cache lines out, but also an invalidate
API to kill inconsistent cache lines that may have moved in before
DMA changed the data

0f1d683fb3 [CPUFREQ] Processor Clocking Control interface driver
Processor Clocking Control (PCC) is an interface between the BIOS and OSPM.
Based on the server workload, OSPM can request what frequency it expects
from a logical CPU, and the BIOS will achieve that frequency transparently.

This patch introduces driver support for PCC. OSPM uses the PCC driver to
communicate with the BIOS via the PCC interface.

There is a Documentation file that provides a link to the PCC
Specification, and also provides a summary of the PCC interface.

Currently, certain HP ProLiant platforms implement the PCC interface. However,
any platform whose BIOS implements the PCC Specification, can utilize this
driver.

V2 --> V1 changes (based on Dominik's suggestions):
- Removed the dependency on CPU_FREQ_TABLE
- "cpufreq_stats" will no longer PANIC. Actually, it will not load anymore
because it is not applicable.
- Removed the sanity check for target frequency in the ->target routine.

NOTE: A patch to sanitize the target frequency requested by "ondemand" is
needed to ensure that the target freq < policy->min.

Can this driver be queued up for the 2.6.33 tree?

1306d603fc proc: partially revert "procfs: provide stack information for threads"
Commit d899bf7b (procfs: provide stack information for threads) introduced
to show stack information in /proc/{pid}/status.  But it cause large
performance regression.  Unfortunately /proc/{pid}/status is used ps
command too and ps is one of most important component.  Because both to
take mmap_sem and page table walk are heavily operation.

If many process run, the ps performance is,

[before d899bf7b]

Thus, this patch revert it. Fortunately /proc/{pid}/task/{tid}/smaps
provide almost same information. we can use it.

Commit d899bf7b introduced two features:

 1) Add the annotattion of [thread stack: xxxx] mark to
    /proc/{pid}/task/{tid}/maps.
 2) Add StackUsage field to /proc/{pid}/status.

I only revert (2), because I haven't seen (1) cause regression.

65324144b5 net: RFC3069, private VLAN proxy arp support
This is to be used together with switch technologies, like RFC3069,
that where the individual ports are not allowed to communicate with
each other, but they are allowed to talk to the upstream router.  As
described in RFC 3069, it is possible to allow these hosts to
communicate through the upstream router by proxy_arp'ing.

This patch basically allow proxy arp replies back to the same
interface (from which the ARP request/solicitation was received).

Tunable per device via proc "proxy_arp_pvlan":
  /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/proxy_arp_pvlan

This switch technology is known by different vendor names:
 - In RFC 3069 it is called VLAN Aggregation.
 - Cisco and Allied Telesyn call it Private VLAN.
 - Hewlett-Packard call it Source-Port filtering or port-isolation.
 - Ericsson call it MAC-Forced Forwarding (RFC Draft).

a6ab7aa9f4 PM / Runtime: Use device type and device class callbacks
The power management of some devices is handled through device types
and device classes rather than through bus types.  Since these
devices may also benefit from using the run-time power management
core, extend it so that the device type and device class run-time PM
callbacks can be taken into consideration by it if the bus type
callback is not defined.

Update the run-time PM core documentation to reflect this change.

This patch provides infrastructure for machine translation of the
regulatory rules database used by CRDA into a C data structure.
It includes code for searching that database as an alternative
to dynamic regulatory rules updates via CRDA.  Most people should
use CRDA instead of this infrastructure, but it provides a better
alternative than the WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY infrastructure (which
can now be removed).
