This patch adds the kernelcore= parameter for x86. Once all patches are applied, a new command-line parameter exist and a new sysctl. This patch adds the necessary documentation. From: Yasunori Goto <y-goto@jp.fujitsu.com> When "kernelcore" boot option is specified, kernel can't boot up on ia64 because of an infinite loop. In addition, the parsing code can be handled in an architecture-independent manner. This patch uses common code to handle the kernelcore= parameter. It is only available to architectures that support arch-independent zone-sizing (i.e. define CONFIG_ARCH_POPULATES_NODE_MAP). Other architectures will ignore the boot parameter.

2007-07-16diskquota: 32bit quota tools on 64bit architecturesVasily Tarasov
OpenVZ Linux kernel team has discovered the problem with 32bit quota tools working on 64bit architectures. In 2.6.10 kernel sys32_quotactl() function was replaced by sys_quotactl() with the comment "sys_quotactl seems to be 32/64bit clean, enable it for 32bit" However this isn't right. Look at if_dqblk structure: struct if_dqblk { __u64 dqb_bhardlimit; __u64 dqb_bsoftlimit; __u64 dqb_curspace; __u64 dqb_ihardlimit; __u64 dqb_isoftlimit; __u64 dqb_curinodes; __u64 dqb_btime; __u64 dqb_itime; __u32 dqb_valid; }; For 32 bit quota tools sizeof(if_dqblk) == 0x44. But for 64 bit kernel its size is 0x48, 'cause of alignment! Thus we got a problem. Attached patch reintroduce sys32_quotactl() function, that handles this and related situations.

2007-07-16serial: convert early_uart to earlycon for 8250Yinghai Lu
Beacuse SERIAL_PORT_DFNS is removed from include/asm-i386/serial.h and include/asm-x86_64/serial.h. the serial8250_ports need to be probed late in serial initializing stage. the console_init=>serial8250_console_init=> register_console=>serial8250_console_setup will return -ENDEV, and console ttyS0 can not be enabled at that time. need to wait till uart_add_one_port in drivers/serial/serial_core.c to call register_console to get console ttyS0. that is too late. Make early_uart to use early_param, so uart console can be used earlier. Make it to be bootconsole with CON_BOOT flag, so can use console handover feature. and it will switch to corresponding normal serial console automatically. new command line will be: console=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8 console=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8 or earlycon=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8 earlycon=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8 it will print in very early stage: Early serial console at I/O port 0x3f8 (options '9600n8') console [uart0] enabled later for console it will print: console handover: boot [uart0] -> real [ttyS0] Signed-off-by: <yinghai.lu@sun.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Cc: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Cc: Russell King <rmk@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2007-07-13[IA64] ar.itc access must really be after xtime_lock.sequence has been readHidetoshi Seto
The ".acq" semantics of the load only apply w.r.t. other data access. Reading the clock (ar.itc) isn't a data access so strange things can happen here. Specifically the read of ar.itc can be launched as soon as the read of xtime_lock.sequence is ISSUED. Since this may cache miss, and that might cause a thread switch, and there may be cache contention for the line containing xtime_lock, it may be a long time before the actual value is returned, so the ar.itc value may be very stale. Move the consumption of r28 up before the read of ar.itc to make sure that we really have got the current value of xtime_lock.sequence before look at ar.itc.

2007-07-13[IA64] use machvec=dig on hpzx1 platformsTerry Loftin
On HP zx1 machines, the 'machvec=dig' parameter is needed for the kdump kernel to avoid problems with the HP sba iommu. The problem is that during the boot of the kdump kernel, the iommu is re-initialized, so in-flight DMA from improperly shutdown drivers causes an IOTLB miss which leads to an MCA. With kdump, the idea is to get into the kdump kernel with as little code as we can, so shutting down drivers properly is not an option. The workaround is to add 'machvec=dig' to the kdump kernel boot parameters. This makes the kdump kernel avoid using the sba iommu altogether, leaving the IOTLB intact. Any ongoing DMA falls harmlessly outside the kdump kernel. After the kdump kernel reboots, all devices will have been shutdown properly and DMA stopped. This patch pushes that functionality into the sba iommu initialization code, so that users won't have to find the obscure documentation telling them about 'machvec=dig'. This patch only affects HP platforms. It still includes one extern declaration in the file, because no applicable header file exists.

2007-07-11[IA64] Support multiple CPUs going through OS_MCARuss Anderson
Linux does not gracefully deal with multiple processors going through OS_MCA aa part of the same MCA event. The first cpu into OS_MCA grabs the ia64_mca_serialize lock. Subsequent cpus wait for that lock, preventing them from reporting in as rendezvoused. The first cpu waits 5 seconds then complains that all the cpus have not rendezvoused. The first cpu then handles its MCA and frees up all the rendezvoused cpus and releases the ia64_mca_serialize lock. One of the subsequent cpus going thought OS_MCA then gets the ia64_mca_serialize lock, waits another 5 seconds and then complains that none of the other cpus have rendezvoused. This patch allows multiple CPUs to gracefully go through OS_MCA. The first CPU into ia64_mca_handler() grabs a mca_count lock. Subsequent CPUs into ia64_mca_handler() are added to a list of cpus that need to go through OS_MCA (a bit set in mca_cpu), and report in as rendezvoused, and but spin waiting their turn. The first CPU sees everyone rendezvous, handles his MCA, wakes up one of the other CPUs waiting to process their MCA (by clearing one mca_cpu bit), and then waits for the other cpus to complete their MCA handling. The next CPU handles his MCA and the process repeats until all the CPUs have handled their MCA. When the last CPU has handled it's MCA, it sets monarch_cpu to -1, releasing all the CPUs. In testing this works more reliably and faster. Thanks to Keith Owens for suggesting numerous improvements to this code.

2007-07-11[IA64] prevent MCA when performing MMIO mmap to PCI config spaceAlex Chiang
Example memory map (HP rx7640 with 'default' acpiconfig setting, VGA disabled): 0x00000000 - 0x3FFFBFFF supports only WB (cacheable) access If a user attempts to perform an MMIO mmap (using the PCIIOC_MMAP_IS_MEM ioctl) to PCI config space (like mmap'ing and accessing memory at 0xA0000), we will MCA because the kernel will attempt to use a mapping with the UC attribute. So check the memory attribute in kern_mmap and the EFI memmap. If WC is requested, and WC or UC access is supported for the region, allow it. Otherwise, use the same attribute the kernel uses.

2007-07-09sched: zap the migration init / cache-hot balancing codeIngo Molnar
the SMP load-balancer uses the boot-time migration-cost estimation code to attempt to improve the quality of balancing. The reason for this code is that the discrete priority queues do not preserve the order of scheduling accurately, so the load-balancer skips tasks that were running on a CPU 'recently'. this code is fundamental fragile: the boot-time migration cost detector doesnt really work on systems that had large L3 caches, it caused boot delays on large systems and the whole cache-hot concept made the balancing code pretty undeterministic as well. (and hey, i wrote most of it, so i can say it out loud that it sucks ;-) under CFS the same purpose of cache affinity can be achieved without any special cache-hot special-case: tasks are sorted in the 'timeline' tree and the SMP balancer picks tasks from the left side of the tree, thus the most cache-cold task is balanced automatically.

During this reentracy period, if an interrupt occurs and if probe happens to trigger in the inturrupt path, then we were corrupting the previous kprobe( as we were overriding the previous kprobe info) info their by crashing the system. This patch fixes this issues by having a an array of previous kprobe info struct(with the array size of 2).

When auditing syscalls that send signals, log the pid and security context for each target process. Optimize the data collection by adding a counter for signal-related rules, and avoiding allocating an aux struct unless we have more than one target process. For process groups, collect pid/context data in blocks of 16. Move the audit_signal_info() hook up in check_kill_permission() so we audit attempts where permission is denied.

Only shows up while building sim_defconfig because CONFIG_ACPI=n there, and all of the uses of cpe_poll_timer are inside #ifdef CONFIG_ACPI. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
