2010-10-26mm: stack based kmap_atomic()Peter Zijlstra
Keep the current interface but ignore the KM_type and use a stack based approach. The advantage is that we get rid of crappy code like: #define __KM_PTE \ (in_nmi() ? KM_NMI_PTE : \ in_irq() ? KM_IRQ_PTE : \ KM_PTE0) and in general can stop worrying about what context we're in and what kmap slots might be appropriate for that. The downside is that FRV kmap_atomic() gets more expensive. For now we use a CPP trick suggested by Andrew: #define kmap_atomic(page, args...) __kmap_atomic(page) to avoid having to touch all kmap_atomic() users in a single patch.

2010-10-26x86: allocate space within a region top-downBjorn Helgaas
Request that allocate_resource() use available space from high addresses first, rather than the default of using low addresses first. The most common place this makes a difference is when we move or assign new PCI device resources. Low addresses are generally scarce, so it's better to use high addresses when possible. This follows Windows practice for PCI allocation.

2010-10-26x86: update iomem_resource end based on CPU physical address capabilitiesBjorn Helgaas
The iomem_resource map reflects the available physical address space. We statically initialize the end to -1, i.e., 0xffffffff_ffffffff, but of course we can only use as much as the CPU can address. This patch updates the end based on the CPU capabilities, so we don't mistakenly allocate space that isn't usable, as we're likely to do when allocating from the top-down.

2010-10-23x86, printk: Get rid of <0> from stack outputJiri Slaby

Note that the log_lvl parameter is now completely ignored in show_stack_log_lvl and the stack is dumped with the default level (like for quite some time already). It behaves the same as the rest of the dump, function traces are dumped in the very same manner. Only Code and maybe some lines are printed with EMERG level. Unfortunately I see no way how to fix this conceptually to have the whole oops/BUG/panic output with the same level, so this removed only the superfluous characters for the time being. Just for illustration: <4>Process kworker/0:0 (pid: 0, threadinfo ffff88003c8a6000, task ffff88003c85c100) <0>Stack: <4> ffffffff818022c0 0000000a00000001 0000000000000001 0000000000000046 <4> ffff88003c8a7fd8 0000000000000001 ffff88003c8a7e58 0000000000000000 <4> ffff88003e503f48 ffffffff8102fc4c ffff88003e503f48 ffff88003e503f68 <0>Call Trace: <0> <IRQ> <4> [<ffffffff8102fc4c>] ? call_softirq+0x1c/0x30 ... <0>Code: 00 01 00 00 65 8b 04 25 80 c5 00 00 c7 45 ...

2010-10-22x86,kgdb: fix debugger hw breakpoint test regression in 2.6.35Jason Wessel
HW breakpoints events stopped working correctly with kgdb as a result of commit: 018cbffe6819f6f8db20a0a3acd9bab9bfd667e4 (Merge commit 'v2.6.33' into perf/core), later commit: ba773f7c510c0b252145933926c636c439889207 (x86,kgdb: Fix hw breakpoint regression) allowed breakpoints to propagate to the debugger core but did not completely address the original regression in functionality found in 2.6.35. When the DR_STEP flag is set in dr6 along with any of the DR_TRAP bits, the kgdb exception handler will enter once from the hw_breakpoint API call back and again from the die notifier for do_debug(), which causes the debugger to stop twice and also for the kgdb regression tests to fail running under kvm with: echo V2I1 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts To address the problem, the kgdb overflow handler needs to implement the same logic as the ptrace overflow handler call back with respect to updating the virtual copy of dr6. This will allow the kgdb do_debug() die notifier to properly handle the exception and the attached debugger, or kgdb test suite, will only receive a single notification.

2010-10-22[CPUFREQ]: x86, cpufreq: Mark longrun_get_policy with __cpuinit.Rakib Mullick
This patch fixes the following warning. The function longrun_cpu_init() is marked with __cpuinit which calls longrun_get_policy() which is a __init function. So make longrun_get_policy with __cpuinit. WARNING: arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/longrun.o(.cpuinit.text+0x4c5): Section mismatch in reference from the function longrun_cpu_init() to the function .init.text:longrun_get_policy() The function __cpuinit longrun_cpu_init() references a function __init longrun_get_policy(). If longrun_get_policy is only used by longrun_cpu_init then annotate longrun_get_policy with a matching annotation.

2010-10-22[CPUFREQ] arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq: Fix unsigned return typeJulia Lawall
In each case, the function has an unsigned return type, but returns a negative constant to indicate an error condition. Each function is only called once. For nforce2_detect_chipset, the result is only compared to 0, and for longrun_determine_freqs, the result is stored in a variable of type (signed) int. Thus, for both functions, unsigned can be dropped from the return type. A sematic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @exists@ identifier f; constant C; @@ unsigned f(...) { <+... * return -C; ...+> } // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com>

2010-10-22perf, x86: Less disastrous PEBS/BTS buffer allocation failurePeter Zijlstra
Currently PEBS/BTS buffers are allocated when we instantiate the first event, when this fails everything fails. This is a problem because esp. BTS tries to allocate a rather large buffer (64K), which can easily fail. This patch changes the logic such that when either buffer allocation fails, we simply don't allow events that would use these facilities, but continue functioning for all other events. This logic comes from a much larger patch proposed by Stephane.

These were (intentionally) stripped by "fix CFI macro invocations to deal with shortcomings in gas" to expose problems with unexpected splitting of arguments by older gas also on newer versions, but as it turns out there is at least one distro (Ubuntu 6.06) where even not having *any* spaces in a macro argument doesn't reliably prevent splitting into multiple arguments.
