9ba8933455 [IA64] SKI Simulator boot
Sorry I didn't notice earlier, but that BUG_ON triggers for me on the
simulator.  AFAICS the mask for itv is set in cpu_init(), which comes
after sal_init().  Consequently on the simulator the itv still has its
start value of zero.  I've probably missed something, but I wonder why
at this stage of the boot you even need to save and restore the itv?

d270acbc24 [IA64] Sanitize assembler code for ia64_sal_os_state
struct ia64_sal_os_state has three semi-independent sections.  The code
in mca_asm.S assumes that these three sections are contiguous, which
makes it very awkward to add new data to this structure.  Remove the
assumption that the sections are contiguous.  Define a macro to shorten
references to offsets in ia64_sal_os_state.

This patch does not change the way that the code behaves.  It just
makes it easier to update the code in future and to add fields to
ia64_sal_os_state when debugging the MCA/INIT handlers.

a1d7057727 [IA64-SGI] SN topology fix for large systems
There is an SN bug in sn_hwperf.c that affects systems with 1024n or 1024p.
The bug manifests itself 2 ways: IO interrupts are not always
targeted to the nearest node, and 2) the "cat /proc/sgi_sn/sn_topology"
commands fails with "cannot allocate memory".

The code is using the wrong macros for validating node numbers.

3e6e155646 [IA64] strcpy returns NULL pointer and not destination pointer
Bob Picco noted that 6edfba1b33
dropped the -ffreestanding compiler flag from the top level
Makefile, which allows the compiler to substitute memcpy() in
places where strcpy() is used with a known size source string.
But the ia64 memcpy() returns 0 for success, and "bytes copied"
for failure.

Fix to return the address of the destination string (like
stdlibc version, and other architectures).  There are no
places where ia64 specific code makes use of the non-standard
return value.

the code that reads /proc/sgi_sn/sn_topology. On large

dmi_scan.c is arch-independent and is used by i386, x86_64, and ia64.
Currently all three arches compile it from arch/i386, which means that ia64

This is simply "mv arch/i386/kernel/dmi_scan.c drivers/firmware/" (removing

architectures already set CONFIG_DMI in their top-level Kconfig files.

This prevents the pfn_valid() check from causing numerous unnecessary

c80d79d746 [PATCH] Configurable NODES_SHIFT
Current implementations define NODES_SHIFT in include/asm-xxx/numnodes.h for
each arch.  Its definition is sometimes configurable.  Indeed, ia64 defines 5
NODES_SHIFT values in the current git tree.  But it looks a bit messy.

SGI-SN2(ia64) system requires 1024 nodes, and the number of nodes already has
been changeable by config.  Suitable node's number may be changed in the
future even if it is other architecture.  So, I wrote configurable node's
number.

This patch set defines just default value for each arch which needs multi
nodes except ia64.  But, it is easy to change to configurable if necessary.

On ia64 the number of nodes can be already configured in generic ia64 and SN2
config.  But, NODES_SHIFT is defined for DIG64 and HP'S machine too.  So, I
changed it so that all platforms can be configured via CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT.  It
would be simpler.

5274f052e7 [PATCH] Introduce sys_splice() system call
This adds support for the sys_splice system call. Using a pipe as a
transport, it can connect to files or sockets (latter as output only).

From the splice.c comments:

   "splice": joining two ropes together by interweaving their strands.

   This is the "extended pipe" functionality, where a pipe is used as
   an arbitrary in-memory buffer. Think of a pipe as a small kernel
   buffer that you can use to transfer data from one end to the other.

   The traditional unix read/write is extended with a "splice()" operation
   that transfers data buffers to or from a pipe buffer.

   Named by Larry McVoy, original implementation from Linus, extended by
   Jens to support splicing to files and fixing the initial implementation
   bugs.

c1c57d7671 [IA64] ioremap() should prefer WB over UC
efi_memmap_init() collects full granules of WB memory, without
regard for whether they also support UC.  So in order for ioremap()
to work for main memory, it must prefer WB mappings when possible.

3283a67d86 [IA64] Add __mca_table to the DISCARD list in gate.lds
Add __mca_table to the DISCARD list for the gate.lds linker script to
avoid broken linker references when linking the final vmlinux file.

Also add comment to include/asm-ia64/asmmacros.h to avoid anyone else
hitting this problem in the future.

e6d1ba5cd9 [IA64] simplify some condition checks in iosapic_check_gsi_range
Some condition checks on iosapic_check_gsi_range() can be omitted
because always `base <= end' is assured. This patch simplifies those
checks.
