Replaced check_user_space() + __check_access_register with the new
check_space(). The old functions made wrong assumptions about kernel
and user space when the kernel and user address spaces are switched
(kernel in home space, user in primary/secondary space).
Secondly the user process can switch to the accress register mode if
it is running in primary or secondary mode. In addition it can load
an arbitrary value to the access registers. If any other value than
0 for primary space or 1 for secondary space is loaded and memory
is accessed using the base register related to the access register,
the program should be terminated with a SIGSEGV. To achieve that the
DUALD pointer in the DUCT and the PSALD pointer in the PASTE need
to point to an array of 8 invalid access-list entries to get a
ALEN-translation exception if an invalid alet is used.

For extended error reporting we sometimes have to start an
Sense Subsystem Status request (SNSS). When this request needs
to be recovered for some reason, the recovery request will
fail with 'command reject'.
Our usual recovery procedure will retry the failed request by
creating a new request and chaining the failed request from that
one. SNSS requests, though, must not be chained from anything,
so the recovery request will fail permanently.
Use the default recovery for SNSS request, which will just restart
the original request without further ado.

After switching compression on/off with the mt command, tape encryption is no
longer working. The reason for that is, that the modeset_byte is set to
the compression value instead of using bitwise and/or bit operations to

Reipl doesn't work on older machines were s390_reset_machine() gets
called. The reason is that the text section is read-only but the
variable dump_prefix_page is there. Since s390_reset_machine() writes
to it we get a protection exception.
Therefore move dump_prefix_page to the bss section.

Avoid sprinkling a _lot_ of preempt_disable/preempt_enable pairs.

The illegal operation handler calls the die notifier with DIE_BPT to
let kprobes pick up its breakpoint. If kprobes does not find its
breakpoint it returns NOTIFY_STOP instead of NOTIFY_DONE.
Since we use stop_machine_run on s390 to arm/disarm the kprobes
breakpoints the race that kprobe_handler tries to solve by checking
for the kprobes breakpoints does not exist. Removing the check makes
BUG_ON working again.

Fix {nf,ip}_ct_iterate_cleanup unconfirmed list handling:
- unconfirmed entries can not be killed manually, they are removed on
confirmation or final destruction of the conntrack entry, which means
we might iterate forever without making forward progress.
This can happen in combination with the conntrack event cache, which
holds a reference to the conntrack entry, which is only released when
the packet makes it all the way through the stack or a different
packet is handled.
- taking references to an unconfirmed entry and using it outside the
locked section doesn't work, the list entries are not refcounted and
another CPU might already be waiting to destroy the entry
What the code really wants to do is make sure the references of the hash
table to the selected conntrack entries are released, so they will be
destroyed once all references from skbs and the event cache are dropped.
Since unconfirmed entries haven't even entered the hash yet, simply mark
them as dying and skip confirmation based on that.

CONFIG_PARAVIRT broke old glibc bootup: it silently turned off the
selectability of CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO and thus rendered distro kernels
unbootable on old-style VDSO glibc setups.
the proper solution is to keep COMPAT_VDSO available - if a hypervisor
needs any modification of that concept then we'll judge those changes in
full context, once those changes are submitted.

there's a new NMI watchdog related problem: KVM crashes on certain
bzImages because ... we enable the NMI watchdog by default (even if the
user does not ask for it) , and no other OS on this planet does that so
KVM doesnt have emulation for that yet. So KVM injects a #GP, which
crashes the Linux guest:
general protection fault: 0000 [#1]

EIP is at setup_apic_nmi_watchdog+0x26d/0x3d3
and no, i did /not/ request an nmi_watchdog on the boot command line!
Solution: turn off that darn thing! It's a debug tool, not a 'make life
harder' tool!!
with this patch the KVM guest boots up just fine.
And with this my laptop (Lenovo T60) also stopped its sporadic hard
hanging (sometimes in acpi_init(), sometimes later during bootup,
sometimes much later during actual use) as well. It hung with both
nmi_watchdog=1 and nmi_watchdog=2, so it's generally the fact of NMI
injection that is causing problems, not the NMI watchdog variant, nor
any particular bootup code.

CT based mach64 cards were reported to hang on sparc64 boxes when
compiled with gcc-4.1.x and later.
Looking at this piece of code, it's no surprise. A critical
delay was implemented as an empty for() loop, and gcc 4.0.x
and previous did not optimize it away, so we did get a delay.
But gcc-4.1.x and later can optimize it away, and we get crashes.

bash/1282 is trying to acquire lock:
(&cpu_base->lock_key){.+..}, at: [<000000000005f17e>] hrtimer_cpu_notify+0xc6/0x240
but task is already holding lock:
(&cpu_base->lock_key#2){.+..}, at: [<000000000005f174>] hrtimer_cpu_notify+0xbc/0x240
which lock already depends on the new lock.
This happens because we have the following code in kernel/hrtimer.c:
migrate_hrtimers(int cpu)
[...]
old_base = &per_cpu(hrtimer_bases, cpu);
new_base = &get_cpu_var(hrtimer_bases);
[...]
spin_lock(&new_base->lock);
spin_lock(&old_base->lock);
Which means the spinlocks are taken in an order which depends on which cpu
gets shut down from which other cpu. Therefore lockdep complains that there
might be an ABBA deadlock. Since migrate_hrtimers() gets only called on
cpu hotplug it's safe to assume that it isn't executed concurrently on a
The same problem exists in kernel/timer.c: migrate_timers().
As pointed out by Christian Borntraeger one possible solution to avoid
the locking order complaints would be to make sure that the locks are
always taken in the same order. E.g. by taking the lock of the cpu with
the lower number first.
To achieve this we introduce two new spinlock functions double_spin_lock
and double_spin_unlock which lock or unlock two locks in a given order.

This patch resolves the issue found here:
http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7426
The basic summary is:
Currently we register most of i386/x86_64 clocksources at module_init
time. Then we enable clocksource selection at late_initcall time. This
causes some problems for drivers that use gettimeofday for init
calibration routines (specifically the es1968 driver in this case),
where durring module_init, the only clocksource available is the low-res
jiffies clocksource. This may cause slight calibration errors, due to
the small sampling time used.
It should be noted that drivers that require fine grained time may not
function on architectures that do not have better then jiffies
resolution timekeeping (there are a few). However, this does not
discount the reasonable need for such fine-grained timekeeping at init
time.
Thus the solution here is to register clocksources earlier (ideally when
the hardware is being initialized), and then we enable clocksource
selection at fs_initcall (before device_initcall).
This patch should probably get some testing time in -mm, since
clocksource selection is one of the most important issues for correct
timekeeping, and I've only been able to test this on a few of my own
boxes.

Recent patch for raid6 reshape had a change missing that showed up in
subsequent review.
Many places in the raid5 code used "conf->raid_disks-1" to mean "number of
data disks". With raid6 that had to be changed to "conf->raid_disk -
conf->max_degraded" or similar. One place was missed.
This bug means that if a raid6 reshape were aborted in the middle the
recorded position would be wrong. On restart it would either fail (as the
position wasn't on an appropriate boundary) or would leave a section of the
array unreshaped, causing data corruption.

Critical fixes for SMP.
Fix a couple functions which needed to be __devinit and fix a bogus parameter
to AP startup that just so happened to work because the low virtual mapping of
memory was still established.

Use para_fill instead of directly setting the APIC ops to the result of the
vmi_get_function call - this allows one to implement a VMI ROM without
implementing APIC functions, just using the native APIC functions.
While doing this, I realized that there is a lot more cleanup that should have
been done. Basically, we should never assume that the ROM implements a
specific set of functions, and always allow fallback to the native
implementation.
This is critical for future compatibility.

More goo from hrtimers integration. We do compile and run properly with NO_HZ
enabled. There was a period when we didn't because of a missing export, but
that was since fixed.
And with the clocksource code now firmly in place, we can get rid of code that
fixes up the wallclock, since this is done in the common infrastructure. This
actually fixes a timer bug as well, that was caused by do_settimeofday no
longer being callable with interrupts disabled due to the use of
on_each_cpu().

The time_init_hook in paravirt-ops no longer functions in the correct manner
after the integration of the hrtimers code. The problem is that now the call
path for time initialization is:
time_init :
late_time_init = hpet_time_init;
late_time_init -> hpet_time_init:
setup_pit_timer (BAD)
do_time_init --> (via paravirt.h)
time_init_hook --> (via arch_hooks.h)
time_init_hook (in SUBARCH/setup.c)
If this isn't confusing enough, the paravirt case goes through an indirect
function pointer in the paravirt-ops table. The problem is, by the time the
paravirt hook is called, the pit timer is already enabled.
But paravirt guests have their own timer, and don't want to use the PIT.
Rather than intensify the struggle for power going on here, just make it all
nice and simple and just unconditionally do all timer setup in the
late_time_init hook. This also has the advantage of enabling timers in the
same place in all code paths, so everyone has the same bugs and we don't have
outliers who break other code because they turn on timer too early or too
late.
So the paravirt-ops time init function is now by default hpet_time_init, which
is the time init function used for native hardware. Paravirt guests have the
chance to override this when they setup the paravirt-ops table, and should
need no change.

Not respecting udelay causes problems with any virtual hardware that is passed
through to real hardware. This can be noticed by any device that interacts
with the real world in real time - like AP startup, which takes real time. Or
keyboard LEDs, which should blink in real-time. Or floppy drives, but only
when passed through to a real floppy controller on OSes which can't
sufficiently buffer the floppy commands to emulate a zero latency floppy. Or
IDE drives, when connecting to a physical CDROM.
This was mostly a hack to get the kernel to boot faster, but it introduced a
number of misvirtualization bugs, and Alan and Pavel argued pretty strongly
against it. We were the only client, and now want to clean up this cruft.

Provide a PT map hook for HIGHPTE kernels to designate where they are mapping
page tables. This information is required so the physical address of PTE
updates can be determined; otherwise, the mm layer would have to carry the
physical address all the way to each PTE modification callsite, which is even
more hideous that the macros required to provide the proper hooks.
So lets not mess up arch neutral code to achieve this, but keep the horror in
an #ifdef HIGHPTE in include/asm-i386/pgtable.h. I had to use macros here
because some types are not yet defined in all the include paths for this
header.
This patch is absolutely required for HIGHPTE kernels to operate properly with
VMI.
