commit c56e58537d504706954a06570b4034c04e5b7500 breaks SMP support in PPC_47x chip.
secondary_ti must be set to current thread info before callin kick_cpu or else
start_secondary_47x will jump into void when trying to return to c-code.
In the current setup secondary_ti is initialized before the CPU idle task is started
and only the boot core will start. I am not sure this is the correct solution, but it
makes SMP possible in my chip.
Note! The HOTPLUG support probably need some fixing to, There is no trampoline code
available in head_44x.S - start_secondary_resume?

Commit b987812b3fcaf70fdf0037589e5d2f5f2453e6ce left
crash_kexec_wait_realmode() undefined for UP.
Commit 7c7a81b53e581d727d069cc45df5510516faac31 defined it for UP but
left it undefined for 32-bit SMP.
Seems like people are getting confused by nested #ifdef's, so move the
definitions of crash_kexec_wait_realmode() after the #ifdef CONFIG_SMP
section.
Compile-tested with 32-bit UP, 32-bit SMP and 64-bit SMP configurations.

Commit b826291c, "drivercore/dt: add a match table pointer to struct
device" added an of_match pointer to struct device to cache the
of_match_table entry discovered at driver match time. This was unsafe
because matching is not an atomic operation with probing a driver. If
two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the
same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get
overwritten.
This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to
call of_match_device() directly instead.

If two drivers are probing devices at the same time, both will write
their match table result to the dev->of_match cache at the same time.
Only write the result if the device matches.
In a thread titled "SBus devices sometimes detected, sometimes not",
Meelis reported his SBus hme was not detected about 50% of the time.
From the debug suggested by Grant it was obvious another driver matched
some devices between the call to match the hme and the hme discovery
failling.

Let's check a scenario:
1. blk_delay_queue(q, SCSI_QUEUE_DELAY);
2. blk_run_queue_async();
the second one will became a noop, because q->delay_work already has
WORK_STRUCT_PENDING_BIT set, so the delayed work will still run after
SCSI_QUEUE_DELAY. But blk_run_queue_async actually hopes the delayed
work runs immediately.
Fix this by doing a cancel on potentially pending delayed work
before queuing an immediate run of the workqueue.

os_dump_core() uses abort() to terminate UML in case of an fatal error.
glibc's abort() calls raise(SIGABRT) which makes use of tgkill().
tgkill() has no effect within UML's kernel threads because they are not
pthreads. As fallback abort() executes an invalid instruction to
terminate the process. Therefore UML gets killed by SIGSEGV and leaves a
ugly log entry in the host's kernel ring buffer.
To get rid of this we use our own abort routine.

As Metze pointed out, commit 84cdf74e broke mapchars option:
Commit "cifs: fix unaligned accesses in cifsConvertToUCS"
(84cdf74e8096a10dd6acbb870dd404b92f07a756) does multiple steps
in just one commit (moving the function and changing it without
testing).
put_unaligned_le16(temp, &target[j]); is never called for any
codepoint the goes via the 'default' switch statement. As a result
we put just zero (or maybe uninitialized) bytes into the target
buffer.
His proposed patch looks correct, but doesn't apply to the current head
of the tree. This patch should also fix it.

Trying to enable the local APIC timer on early K8 revisions
uncovers a number of other issues with it, in conjunction with
the C1E enter path on AMD. Fixing those causes much more churn
and troubles than the benefit of using that timer brings so
don't enable it on K8 at all, falling back to the original
functionality the kernel had wrt to that.

This reverts commit e20a2d205c05cef6b5783df339a7d54adeb50962, as it crashes
certain boxes with specific AMD CPU models.
Moving the lower endpoint of the Erratum 400 check to accomodate
earlier K8 revisions (A-E) opens a can of worms which is simply
not worth to fix properly by tweaking the errata checking
framework:
* missing IntPenging MSR on revisions < CG cause #GP:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=130541471818831
* makes earlier revisions use the LAPIC timer instead of the C1E
idle routine which switches to HPET, thus not waking up in
deeper C-states:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/24/20
Therefore, leave the original boundary starting with K8-revF.

Commit c21e6beb removed our queue request_fn re-enter
protection, and defaulted to always running the queues from
kblockd to be safe. This was a known potential slow down,
but should be safe.
Unfortunately this is causing big performance regressions for
some, so we need to improve this logic. Looking into the details
of the re-enter, the real issue is on requeue of requests.
Requeue of requests upon seeing a BUSY condition from the device
ends up re-running the queue, causing traces like this:
scsi_request_fn()
scsi_dispatch_cmd()
scsi_queue_insert()
__scsi_queue_insert()
scsi_run_queue()
scsi_request_fn()
...
potentially causing the issue we want to avoid. So special
case the requeue re-run of the queue, but improve it to offload
the entire run of local queue and starved queue from a single
workqueue callback. This is a lot better than potentially
kicking off a workqueue run for each device seen.
This also fixes the issue of the local device going into recursion,
since the above mentioned commit never moved that queue run out
of line.

pcieport: probe of 0000:c0:03.0 failed with error -22
This bug was caused by commit c8adf9a3e873 ("PCI: pre-allocate
additional resources to devices only after successful allocation of
essential resources.")
After that commit, pci_hotplug_io_size is changed to additional_io_size
from minium size. So it will not go through resource_size(res) != 0
path, and will not be reset.
The root cause is: pci_bridge_check_ranges will set RESOURCE_IO flag for
pci bridge, and later if children do not need IO resource. those bridge
resources will not need to be allocated. but flags is still there.
that will confuse the the pci_enable_bridges later.
related code:
static void assign_requested_resources_sorted(struct resource_list *head,
struct resource_list_x *fail_head)
{
struct resource *res;
struct resource_list *list;
int idx;
for (list = head->next; list; list = list->next) {
res = list->res;
idx = res - &list->dev->resource[0];
if (resource_size(res) && pci_assign_resource(list->dev, idx)) {
...
reset_resource(res);
}
}
}
At last, We have to clear the flags in pbus_size_mem/io when requested
size == 0 and !add_head. becasue this case it will not go through
adjust_resources_sorted().
Just make size1 = size0 when !add_head. it will make flags get cleared.
At the same time when requested size == 0, add_size != 0, will still
have in head and add_list. because we do not clear the flags for it.
After this, we will get right result:

The first cpu which switches from periodic to oneshot mode switches
also the broadcast device into oneshot mode. The broadcast device
serves as a backup for per cpu timers which stop in deeper
C-states. To avoid starvation of the cpus which might be in idle and
depend on broadcast mode it marks the other cpus as broadcast active
and sets the brodcast expiry value of those cpus to the next tick.
The oneshot mode broadcast bit for the other cpus is sticky and gets
only cleared when those cpus exit idle. If a cpu was not idle while
the bit got set in consequence the bit prevents that the broadcast
device is armed on behalf of that cpu when it enters idle for the
first time after it switched to oneshot mode.
In most cases that goes unnoticed as one of the other cpus has usually
a timer pending which keeps the broadcast device armed with a short
timeout. Now if the only cpu which has a short timer active has the
bit set then the broadcast device will not be armed on behalf of that
cpu and will fire way after the expected timer expiry. In the case of
Christians bug report it took ~145 seconds which is about half of the
wrap around time of HPET (the limit for that device) due to the fact
that all other cpus had no timers armed which expired before the 145
seconds timeframe.
The solution is simply to clear the broadcast active bit
unconditionally when a cpu switches to oneshot mode after the first
cpu switched the broadcast device over. It's not idle at that point
otherwise it would not be executing that code.
[ I fundamentally hate that broadcast crap. Why the heck thought some
folks that when going into deep idle it's a brilliant concept to
switch off the last device which brings the cpu back from that
state? ]

During initialization of vmxnet3, the state of LRO
gets out of sync with netdev->features.
This leads to very poor TCP performance in a IP forwarding
setup and is hitting many VMware users.
Simplified call sequence:
1. vmxnet3_declare_features() initializes "adapter->lro" to true.
2. The kernel automatically disables LRO if IP forwarding is enabled,
so vmxnet3_set_flags() gets called. This also updates netdev->features.
3. Now vmxnet3_setup_driver_shared() is called. "adapter->lro" is still
set to true and LRO gets enabled again, even though
netdev->features shows it's disabled.
Fix it by updating "adapter->lro", too.
The private vmxnet3 adapter flags are scheduled for removal
in net-next, see commit a0d2730c9571aeba793cb5d3009094ee1d8fda35
"net: vmxnet3: convert to hw_features".
Patch applies to 2.6.37 / 2.6.38 and 2.6.39-rc6.

Currentlly we first map the task to cgroup and then cgroup to
blkio_cgroup. There is a more direct way to get to blkio_cgroup
from task using task_subsys_state(). Use that.
The real reason for the fix is that it also avoids a race in generic
cgroup code. During remount/umount rebind_subsystems() is called and
it can do following with and rcu protection.
cgrp->subsys[i] = NULL;
That means if somebody got hold of cgroup under rcu and then it tried
to do cgroup->subsys[] to get to blkio_cgroup, it would get NULL which
is wrong. I was running into this race condition with ltp running on a
upstream derived kernel and that lead to crash.
So ideally we should also fix cgroup generic code to wait for rcu
grace period before setting pointer to NULL. Li Zefan is not very keen
on introducing synchronize_wait() as he thinks it will slow
down moun/remount/umount operations.
So for the time being atleast fix the kernel crash by taking a more
direct route to blkio_cgroup.
One tester had reported a crash while running LTP on a derived kernel
and with this fix crash is no more seen while the test has been
running for over 6 days.

This patch fixes a bug reported by a customer, who found
that many unreasonable error interrupts reported on all
non-boot CPUs (APs) during the system boot stage.
According to Chapter 10 of Intel Software Developer Manual
Volume 3A, Local APIC may signal an illegal vector error when
an LVT entry is set as an illegal vector value (0~15) under
FIXED delivery mode (bits 8-11 is 0), regardless of whether
the mask bit is set or an interrupt actually happen. These
errors are seen as error interrupts.
The initial value of thermal LVT entries on all APs always reads
0x10000 because APs are woken up by BSP issuing INIT-SIPI-SIPI
sequence to them and LVT registers are reset to 0s except for
the mask bits which are set to 1s when APs receive INIT IPI.
When the BIOS takes over the thermal throttling interrupt,
the LVT thermal deliver mode should be SMI and it is required
from the kernel to keep AP's LVT thermal monitoring register
programmed as such as well.
This issue happens when BIOS does not take over thermal throttling
interrupt, AP's LVT thermal monitor register will be restored to
0x10000 which means vector 0 and fixed deliver mode, so all APs will
signal illegal vector error interrupts.
This patch check if interrupt delivery mode is not fixed mode before
restoring AP's LVT thermal monitor register.

We need to hold the dev->mode_config.mutex whilst detecting the output
status. But we also need to drop it for the call into
drm_fb_helper_single_fb_probe(), which indirectly acquires the lock when
attaching the fbcon.
Failure to do so exposes a race with normal output probing. Detected by
adding some warnings that the mutex is held to the backend detect routines:

My Q67 / i7-2600 box has rev09 Sandy Bridge graphics. It hangs
instantly when GNOME loads and it hangs so hard the reset button
doesn't work. Setting i915.semaphore=0 fixes it.
Semaphores were disabled in a1656b9090f7008d2941c314f5a64724bea2ae37
in 2.6.38 and were re-enabled by
commit 47ae63e0c2e5fdb582d471dc906eb29be94c732f
Merge: c59a333 467cffb
Author: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk>
Date: Mon Mar 7 12:32:44 2011 +0000
Merge branch 'drm-intel-fixes' into drm-intel-next
Apply the trivial conflicting regression fixes, but keep GPU semaphores
enabled.
Conflicts:
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.h
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem_execbuffer.c
(It's worth noting that the offending change is i915_drv.c,
which is not a conflict.)

If the requested device is already active, ignore the request.
This restores the original behaviour of the interface. The change was
probably an unintended side effect of
commit 66b37c6777c4 vga_switcheroo: split switching into two stages
which did not take into account to duplicate the !active check in the split-off
stage2.
Fix this by factoring that check out of stage1 into the debugfs_write routine.

Without this patch every access to ip_vs in procfs will increase
the netns count i.e. an unbalanced get_net()/put_net().
(ipvsadm commands also use procfs.)
The result is you can't exit a netns if reading ip_vs_* procfs entries.
