2005-07-22Remove "noreplacement" kernel command line option.Linus Torvalds
It is no longer valid to not replace instructions, since we depend on different behaviour depending on CPU capabilities. If you need to limit the capabilities of the replacements (because the boot CPU has features that non-boot CPU's do not have, for example), you need to explicitly disable those capabilities that are not shared across all CPU's. For example, if your boot CPU has FXSR, but other CPU's in your system do not, you need to use the "nofxsr" kernel command line, not disable instruction replacement per se.
2005-07-22x86: use alternative instructions for fnsave/fxsave tooLinus Torvalds
This one ends up using an inline asm format that claims to read memory and then clobber it (rather than just write it directly), which made it easier to use the existing "alternative_input()" infrastructure support. Now the fxsave code matches the fxrstor.

2005-07-22[PKT_SCHED]: em_meta: Kill TCF_META_ID_{INDEV,SECURITY,TCVERDICT}David S. Miller
More unusable TCF_META_* match types that need to get eliminated before 2.6.13 goes out the door. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Acked-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch>
2005-07-22x86: make restore_fpu() use alternative assembler instructionsLinus Torvalds
It's really just a single instruction, conditional on whether the CPU supports FXSR or not, so implement it as such instead of making it a function that queries FXSR dynamically. This means that the instruction just gets automatically rewritten to the correct one at boot-time.

2005-07-22[NETFILTER]: Fix potential memory corruption in NAT code (aka memory NAT)Patrick McHardy
The portptr pointing to the port in the conntrack tuple is declared static, which could result in memory corruption when two packets of the same protocol are NATed at the same time and one conntrack goes away.

2005-07-22Fix up incorrect "unlikely()" on %gs reload in x86 __switch_toLinus Torvalds
These days %gs is normally the TLS segment, so it's no longer zero. As a result, we shouldn't just assume that %fs/%gs tend to be zero together, but test them independently instead. Also, fix setting of debug registers to use the "next" pointer instead of "current". It so happens that the scheduler will have set the new current pointer before calling __switch_to(), but that's just an implementation detail.

2005-07-21[NETFILTER]: ip_conntrack_expect_related must not free expectationRusty Russell
If a connection tracking helper tells us to expect a connection, and we're already expecting that connection, we simply free the one they gave us and return success. The problem is that NAT helpers (eg. FTP) have to allocate the expectation first (to see what port is available) then rewrite the packet. If that rewrite fails, they try to remove the expectation, but it was freed in ip_conntrack_expect_related. This is one example of a larger problem: having registered the expectation, the pointer is no longer ours to use. Reference counting is needed for ctnetlink anyway, so introduce it now. To have a single "put" path, we need to grab the reference to the connection on creation, rather than open-coding it in the caller.

2005-07-18[PKT_SCHED]: Reduce branch mispredictions in pfifo_fast_dequeueThomas Graf
The current call to __qdisc_dequeue_head leads to a branch misprediction for every loop iteration, the fact that the most common priority is 2 makes this even worse. This issue has been brought up by Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> but unlike his solution which was to manually unroll the loop, this approach preserves the possibility to increase the number of bands at compile time.
