This patch fixes the problem and does a small cleanup by creating a
pcibios_alloc_controller() in pci_64.c that is similar to the one in
pci_32.c (just takes an additional device node argument) that takes care
of all the grunt allocation and initialisation work. It should work for

Keeping this function does not makes sense because it's a copied (and
buggy) copy of sys_time. The only difference is that now.tv_sec (which is
a time_t, i.e. a 64-bit long) is copied (and truncated) into a int
(32-bit).
The prototype is the same (they both take a long __user *), so let's drop
this and redirect it to sys_time (and make sure it exists by defining
__ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME).
Only disadvantage is that the sys_stime definition is also compiled (may be
fixed if needed by adding a separate __ARCH_WANT_SYS_STIME macro, and
defining it for all arch's defining __ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME except x86_64).

With a NR_CPUS==128 kernel with CPU hotplug enabled we would waste 4MB
on per CPU data of all possible CPUs. The reason was that HOTPLUG
always set up possible map to NR_CPUS cpus and then we need to allocate
that much (each per CPU data is roughly ~32k now)
The underlying problem is that ACPI didn't tell us how many hotplug CPUs
the platform supports. So the old code just assumed all, which would
lead to this memory wastage.
This implements some new heuristics:
- If the BIOS specified disabled CPUs in the ACPI/mptables assume they
can be enabled later (this is bending the ACPI specification a bit,
but seems like a obvious extension)
- The user can overwrite it with a new additionals_cpus=NUM option
- Otherwise use half of the available CPUs or 2, whatever is more.

Here's a patch that builds on Natalie Protasevich's IRQ compression
patch and tries to work for MPS boots as well as ACPI. It is meant for
a 4-node IBM x460 NUMA box, which was dying because it had interrupt
pins with GSI numbers > NR_IRQS and thus overflowed irq_desc.
The problem is that this system has 270 GSIs (which are 1:1 mapped with
I/O APIC RTEs) and an 8-node box would have 540. This is much bigger
than NR_IRQS (224 for both i386 and x86_64). Also, there aren't enough
vectors to go around. There are about 190 usable vectors, not counting
the reserved ones and the unused vectors at 0x20 to 0x2F. So, my patch
attempts to compress the GSI range and share vectors by sharing IRQs.

Add a new 4GB GFP_DMA32 zone between the GFP_DMA and GFP_NORMAL zones.
As a bit of historical background: when the x86-64 port
was originally designed we had some discussion if we should
use a 16MB DMA zone like i386 or a 4GB DMA zone like IA64 or
both. Both was ruled out at this point because it was in early
2.4 when VM is still quite shakey and had bad troubles even
dealing with one DMA zone. We settled on the 16MB DMA zone mainly
because we worried about older soundcards and the floppy.
But this has always caused problems since then because
device drivers had trouble getting enough DMA able memory. These days
the VM works much better and the wide use of NUMA has proven
it can deal with many zones successfully.
So this patch adds both zones.
This helps drivers who need a lot of memory below 4GB because
their hardware is not accessing more (graphic drivers - proprietary
and free ones, video frame buffer drivers, sound drivers etc.).
Previously they could only use IOMMU+16MB GFP_DMA, which
was not enough memory.
Another common problem is that hardware who has full memory
addressing for >4GB misses it for some control structures in memory
(like transmit rings or other metadata). They tended to allocate memory
in the 16MB GFP_DMA or the IOMMU/swiotlb then using pci_alloc_consistent,
but that can tie up a lot of precious 16MB GFPDMA/IOMMU/swiotlb memory
(even on AMD systems the IOMMU tends to be quite small) especially if you have
many devices. With the new zone pci_alloc_consistent can just put
this stuff into memory below 4GB which works better.
One argument was still if the zone should be 4GB or 2GB. The main
motivation for 2GB would be an unnamed not so unpopular hardware
raid controller (mostly found in older machines from a particular four letter
company) who has a strange 2GB restriction in firmware. But
that one works ok with swiotlb/IOMMU anyways, so it doesn't really
need GFP_DMA32. I chose 4GB to be compatible with IA64 and because
it seems to be the most common restriction.
The new zone is so far added only for x86-64.
For other architectures who don't set up this
new zone nothing changes. Architectures can set a compatibility
define in Kconfig CONFIG_DMA_IS_DMA32 that will define GFP_DMA32
as GFP_DMA. Otherwise it's a nop because on 32bit architectures
it's normally not needed because GFP_NORMAL (=0) is DMA able
enough.
One problem is still that GFP_DMA means different things on different
architectures. e.g. some drivers used to have #ifdef ia64 use GFP_DMA
(trusting it to be 4GB) #elif __x86_64__ (use other hacks like
the swiotlb because 16MB is not enough) ... . This was quite
ugly and is now obsolete.
These should be now converted to use GFP_DMA32 unconditionally. I haven't done
this yet. Or best only use pci_alloc_consistent/dma_alloc_coherent
which will use GFP_DMA32 transparently.

We currently have a ppc_md member called cpu_irq_down, which disables IRQs
for the cpu in question. The only caller of cpu_irq_down is the kexec code.
On pSeries we need to do more than just teardown IRQs at kexec time, so rename
the ppc_md member to kexec_cpu_down and expand it. The pSeries code needs to
know, and other platforms might too, whether we're doing a crash shutdown (ie.
panicking) or a regular kexec, so add a flag for that.
The pSeries implementation of kexec_cpu_down does an unregister VPA call, which
tells the Hypervisor to stop writing stuff into our pacas. Without this we can
get weird memory corruption bugs when we kexec, caused by the Hypervisor
writing into the first kernel's pacas which happens to be somewhere interesting
in the second kernel's memory.

Sync iocbs have a life cycle that don't need a kioctx. Their retrying, if
any, is done in the context of their owner who has allocated them on the
stack.
The sole user of a sync iocb's ctx reference was aio_complete() checking for
an elevated iocb ref count that could never happen. No path which grabs an
iocb ref has access to sync iocbs.
If we were to implement sync iocb cancelation it would be done by the owner of
the iocb using its on-stack reference.
Removing this chunk from aio_complete allows us to remove the entire kioctx

encapsulates the rest of arch-dependent operations with thread_info access.
Two new helpers - setup_thread_stack() and end_of_stack(). For normal case
the former consists of copying thread_info of parent to new thread_info and
the latter returns pointer immediately past the end of thread_info.

new helper - task_thread_info(task). On platforms that have thread_info
allocated separately (i.e. in default case) it simply returns
task->thread_info. m68k wants (and for good reasons) to embed its thread_info
into task_struct. So it will (in later patch) have task_thread_info() of its
own. For now we just add a macro for generic case and convert existing
instances of its body in core kernel to uses of new macro. Obviously safe -
all normal architectures get the same preprocessor output they used to get.

The address based work estimate for unmapping (for lockbreak) is and always
was horribly inefficient for sparse mappings. The problem is most simply
explained with an example:
If we find a pgd is clear, we still have to call into unmap_page_range
PGDIR_SIZE / ZAP_BLOCK_SIZE times, each time checking the clear pgd, in
order to progress the working address to the next pgd.
The fundamental way to solve the problem is to keep track of the end
address we've processed and pass it back to the higher layers.
From: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de>
Modification to completely get away from address based work estimate
and instead use an abstract count, with a very small cost for empty
entries as opposed to present pages.
On 2.6.14-git2, ppc64, and CONFIG_PREEMPT=y, mapping and unmapping 1TB
of virtual address space takes 1.69s; with the following patch applied,
this operation can be done 1000 times in less than 0.01s
From: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org>
With CONFIG_HUTETLB_PAGE=n:
mm/memory.c: In function `unmap_vmas':
mm/memory.c:779: warning: division by zero
Due to
zap_work -= (end - start) /
(HPAGE_SIZE / PAGE_SIZE);
So make the dummy HPAGE_SIZE non-zero

The file_lock spinlock sits close to mostly read fields of 'struct
files_struct'
In SMP (and NUMA) environments, each time a thread wants to open or close
a file, it has to acquire the spinlock, thus invalidating the cache line
containing this spinlock on other CPUS. So other threads doing
read()/write()/... calls that use RCU to access the file table are going
to ask further memory (possibly NUMA) transactions to read again this
memory line.
Move the spinlock to another cache line, so that concurrent threads can
share the cache line containing 'count' and 'fdt' fields.
It's worth up to 9% on a microbenchmark using a 4-thread 2-package x86
machine. See

Patch from Richard Purdie
Add a driver for the extra GPIOs found on the Sharp SL-C1000 (Akita).
These GPIOs are found on a Maxim MAX7310 I2C i/o expander chip. A
generic GPIO driver for the MAX7310 was attempted but this mini
driver is a much simpler and much more effective solution avoiding
several issues and complexity the generic driver had (as discussed
on LKML).
The platform device is required so the device parent can be set
correctly which ensures the device is one of the last to suspend
and first to resume. Whilst the i2c suspend/resume calls can be
influenced, nothing guarantees this is easlier/later than the
subsystems the gpios are used on which are all independent of i2c
(sound, irda, video/backlight etc.).

We had similar problems with other ioctls where userspace did things
like that. What we did there was to put the compat handler to generic
code. The patch below does that, adding a big comment about what's
going on and removing the COMPAT_IOCTL entires for these on powerpc
that not only weren't ever useful but are duplicated now aswell.

This patch adds request_queue->nr_sorted which keeps the number of
requests in the iosched and implement elv_drain_elevator which
performs forced dispatching. elv_drain_elevator checks whether
iosched actually dispatches all requests it has and prints error
message if it doesn't. As buggy forced dispatching can result in
wrong barrier operations, I think this extra check is worthwhile.

On ia64, it is possible to get NaT Consumption Fault and a kernel panic
when initializing sctp sideeffect commands arguments. The union
sctp_arg_t contains different sized elements and when loading a smaller
sized element (32 or 16 bits), it is possible for a speculative load to
fail and result in a NaT bit set which causes a kernel crash. The easy
way to get around it is to load the largerst member of the union.

This patch introduces 4-level page tables to ia64. I have run
some benchmarks and found nothing interesting. Performance has
consistently fallen within the noise range.
It also introduces a config option (setting the default to 3
levels). The config option prevents having 4 level page
tables with 64k base page size.
