Pull "Nuke 386-DX/SX support" from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree removes ancient-386-CPUs support and thus zaps quite a bit
of complexity:
24 files changed, 56 insertions(+), 425 deletions(-)
... which complexity has plagued us with extra work whenever we wanted
to change SMP primitives, for years.
Unfortunately there's a nostalgic cost: your old original 386 DX33
system from early 1991 won't be able to boot modern Linux kernels
anymore. Sniff."
I'm not sentimental. Good riddance.

Pull x86 BSP hotplug changes from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree enables CPU#0 (the boot processor) to be onlined/offlined on
x86, just like any other CPU. Enabled on Intel CPUs for now.
Allowing this required the identification and fixing of latent CPU#0
assumptions (such as CPU#0 initializations, etc.) in the x86
architecture code, plus the identification of barriers to
BSP-offlining, such as active PIC interrupts which can only be
serviced on the BSP.
It's behind a default-off option, and there's a debug option that
allows the automatic testing of this feature.
The motivation of this feature is to allow and prepare for true
CPU-hotplug hardware support: recent changes to MCE support enable us
to detect a deteriorating but not yet hard-failing L1/L2 cache on a
CPU that could be soft-unplugged - or a failing L3 cache on a
multi-socket system.
Note that true hardware hot-plug is not yet fully enabled by this,
because that requires a special platform wakeup sequence to be sent to
the freshly powered up CPU#0. Future patches for this are planned,
once such a platform exists. Chicken and egg"

most of it on the tooling side.
Main changes:
* ftrace enhancements and fixes from Steve Rostedt.
* uprobes fixes, cleanups and preparation for the ARM port from Oleg
Nesterov.
* UAPI fixes, from David Howels - prepares the arch/x86 UAPI
transition
* Separate perf tests into multiple objects, one per test, from Jiri
Olsa.
* Make hardware event translations available in sysfs, from Jiri
Olsa.
* Fixes to /proc/pid/maps parsing, preparatory to supporting data
maps, from Namhyung Kim
* Implement ui_progress for GTK, from Namhyung Kim
* Add framework for automated perf_event_attr tests, where tools with
different command line options will be run from a 'perf test', via
python glue, and the perf syscall will be intercepted to verify
that the perf_event_attr fields set by the tool are those expected,
from Jiri Olsa
* Add a 'link' method for hists, so that we can have the leader with
buckets for all the entries in all the hists. This new method is
now used in the default 'diff' output, making the sum of the
'baseline' column be 100%, eliminating blind spots.
* libtraceevent fixes for compiler warnings trying to make perf it
build on some distros, like fedora 14, 32-bit, some of the warnings
really pointed to real bugs.
* Add a browser for 'perf script' and make it available from the
report and annotate browsers. It does filtering to find the
scripts that handle events found in the perf.data file used. From
Feng Tang
* perf inject changes to allow showing where a task sleeps, from
Andrew Vagin.
* Makefile improvements from Namhyung Kim.
* Add --pre and --post command hooks in 'stat', from Peter Zijlstra.
* Don't stop synthesizing threads when one vanishes, this is for the
existing threads when we start a tool like trace.
* Use sched:sched_stat_runtime to provide a thread summary, this
produces the same output as the 'trace summary' subcommand of
tglx's original "trace" tool.
* Support interrupted syscalls in 'trace'
* Add an event duration column and filter in 'trace'.
* There are references to the man pages in some tools, so try to
build Documentation when installing, warning the user if that is
not possible, from Borislav Petkov.

Pull RCU update from Ingo Molnar:
"The major features of this tree are:
1. A first version of no-callbacks CPUs. This version prohibits
offlining CPU 0, but only when enabled via CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y.
Relaxing this constraint is in progress, but not yet ready
for prime time. These commits were posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/724.
2. Changes to SRCU that allows statically initialized srcu_struct
structures. These commits were posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/296.
3. Restructuring of RCU's debugfs output. These commits were posted
to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/341.
4. Additional CPU-hotplug/RCU improvements, posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/327.
Note that the commit eliminating __stop_machine() was judged to
be too-high of risk, so is deferred to 3.9.
5. Changes to RCU's idle interface, most notably a new module
parameter that redirects normal grace-period operations to
their expedited equivalents. These were posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/739.
6. Additional diagnostics for RCU's CPU stall warning facility,
posted to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/315.
The most notable change reduces the
default RCU CPU stall-warning time from 60 seconds to 21 seconds,
so that it once again happens sooner than the softlockup timeout.
7. Documentation updates, which were posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/280.
A couple of late-breaking changes were posted at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/16/634 and
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/16/547.
8. Miscellaneous fixes, which were posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/309.
9. Finally, a fix for an lockdep-RCU splat was posted to LKML
at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/7/486."

Fix the x86-64 cache alignment code to take pgoff into account. Use the
x86 and MIPS cache alignment code as the basis for a generic cache
alignment function.
The old x86 code will always align the mmap to aliasing boundaries,
even if the program mmaps the file with a non-zero pgoff.
If program A mmaps the file with pgoff 0, and program B mmaps the file
with pgoff 1. The old code would align the mmaps, resulting in misaligned
pages:
A: 0123
B: 123
After this patch, they are aligned so the pages line up:
A: 0123
B: 123

There was some desire in large applications using MAP_HUGETLB or
SHM_HUGETLB to use 1GB huge pages on some mappings, and stay with 2MB on
others. This is useful together with NUMA policy: use 2MB interleaving
on some mappings, but 1GB on local mappings.
This patch extends the IPC/SHM syscall interfaces slightly to allow
specifying the page size.
It borrows some upper bits in the existing flag arguments and allows
encoding the log of the desired page size in addition to the *_HUGETLB
flag. When 0 is specified the default size is used, this makes the
change fully compatible.
Extending the internal hugetlb code to handle this is straight forward.
Instead of a single mount it just keeps an array of them and selects the
right mount based on the specified page size. When no page size is
specified it uses the mount of the default page size.
The change is not visible in /proc/mounts because internal mounts don't
appear there. It also has very little overhead: the additional mounts
just consume a super block, but not more memory when not used.
I also exported the new flags to the user headers (they were previously
under __KERNEL__). Right now only symbols for x86 and some other
architecture for 1GB and 2MB are defined. The interface should already
work for all other architectures though. Only architectures that define
multiple hugetlb sizes actually need it (that is currently x86, tile,
powerpc). However tile and powerpc have user configurable hugetlb
sizes, so it's not easy to add defines. A program on those
architectures would need to query sysfs and use the appropiate log2.

Conflicts:

Pull the latest RCU tree from Paul E. McKenney:
" The major features of this series are:
1. A first version of no-callbacks CPUs. This version prohibits
offlining CPU 0, but only when enabled via CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y.
Relaxing this constraint is in progress, but not yet ready
for prime time. These commits were posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/724, and are at branch rcu/nocb.
2. Changes to SRCU that allows statically initialized srcu_struct
structures. These commits were posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/296, and are at branch rcu/srcu.
3. Restructuring of RCU's debugfs output. These commits were posted
to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/341, and are at
branch rcu/tracing.
4. Additional CPU-hotplug/RCU improvements, posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/327, and are at branch rcu/hotplug.
Note that the commit eliminating __stop_machine() was judged to
be too-high of risk, so is deferred to 3.9.
5. Changes to RCU's idle interface, most notably a new module
parameter that redirects normal grace-period operations to
their expedited equivalents. These were posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/739, and are at branch rcu/idle.
6. Additional diagnostics for RCU's CPU stall warning facility,
posted to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/315, and
are at branch rcu/stall. The most notable change reduces the
default RCU CPU stall-warning time from 60 seconds to 21 seconds,
so that it once again happens sooner than the softlockup timeout.
7. Documentation updates, which were posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/280, and are at branch rcu/doc.
A couple of late-breaking changes were posted at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/16/634 and
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/16/547.
8. Miscellaneous fixes, which were posted to LKML at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/309, along with a late-breaking
change posted at Fri, 16 Nov 2012 11:26:25 -0800 with message-ID
<20121116192625.GA447@linux.vnet.ibm.com>, but which lkml.org
seems to have missed. These are at branch rcu/fixes.
9. Finally, a fix for an lockdep-RCU splat was posted to LKML
at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/7/486. This is at rcu/next. "

When a cpu enters S3 state, the FPU state is lost.
After resuming for S3, if we try to lazy restore the FPU for a process running
on the same CPU, this will result in a corrupted FPU context.
Ensure that "fpu_owner_task" is properly invalided when (re-)initializing a CPU,
so nobody will try to lazy restore a state which doesn't exist in the hardware.
Tested with a 64-bit kernel on a 4-core Ivybridge CPU with eagerfpu=off,
by doing thousands of suspend/resume cycles with 4 processes doing FPU
operations running. Without the patch, a process is killed after a
few hundreds cycles by a SIGFPE.

Create a new subsystem that probes on kernel boundaries
to keep track of the transitions between level contexts
with two basic initial contexts: user or kernel.
This is an abstraction of some RCU code that use such tracking
to implement its userspace extended quiescent state.
We need to pull this up from RCU into this new level of indirection
because this tracking is also going to be used to implement an "on
demand" generic virtual cputime accounting. A necessary step to
shutdown the tick while still accounting the cputime.

There appear to have been some 486 clones, including the "enhanced"
version of Am486, which have CPUID but not CR4. These 486 clones had
only the FPU flag, if any, unlike the Intel 486s with CPUID, which
also had VME and therefore needed CR4.
Therefore, look at the basic CPUID flags and require at least one bit
other than bit 0 before we modify CR4.
Thanks to Christian Ludloff of sandpile.org for confirming this as a
problem.

In __emulate_1op_rax_rdx, we use "+a" and "+d" which are input/output
constraints, and *then* use "a" and "d" as input constraints. This is
incorrect, but happens to work on some versions of gcc.
However, it breaks gcc with -O0 and icc, and may break on future
versions of gcc.

Issues that need to be handled:
* Handle PIC interrupts on any CPU irrespective of the apic mode
* In the apic lowest priority logical flat delivery mode, be prepared to
handle the interrupt on any CPU irrespective of what the IO-APIC RTE says.
* Because of above, when the IO-APIC starts handling the legacy PIC interrupt,
use the same vector that is being used by the PIC while programming the
corresponding IO-APIC RTE.
Start with all the cpu's in the legacy PIC interrupts cfg->domain.
By the time IO-APIC starts taking over the PIC interrupts, apic driver
model is finalized. So depend on the assign_irq_vector() to update the
cfg->domain and retain the same vector that was used by PIC before.
For the logical apic flat mode, cfg->domain is updated (during the first
call to assign_irq_vector()) to contain all the possible online cpu's (0xff).
Vector used for the legacy PIC interrupt doesn't change when the IO-APIC
starts handling the interrupt. Any interrupt migration after that
doesn't change the cfg->domain or the vector used.
For other apic modes like physical mode, cfg->domain is updated
(during the first call to assign_irq_vector()) to the boot cpu (cpu-0),
with the same vector that is being used by the PIC. When that interrupt is
migrated to a different cpu, cfg->domin and the vector assigned will change
accordingly.

In 32 bit the stack address provided by kernel_stack_pointer() may
point to an invalid range causing NULL pointer access or page faults
while in NMI (see trace below). This happens if called in softirq
context and if the stack is empty. The address at ®s->sp is then
out of range.
Fixing this by checking if regs and ®s->sp are in the same stack
context. Otherwise return the previous stack pointer stored in struct
thread_info. If that address is invalid too, return address of regs.

because the boot stub code doesn't link with the kernel proper, and

follow the example of misc.c and #undef memcpy so that we use the
