2009-04-07x86 ACPI: Add support for Always Running APIC timerVenkatesh Pallipadi
Add support for Always Running APIC timer, CPUID_0x6_EAX_Bit2. This bit means the APIC timer continues to run even when CPU is in deep C-states. The advantage is that we can use LAPIC timer on these CPUs always, and there is no need for "slow to read and program" external timers (HPET/PIT) and the timer broadcast logic and related code in C-state entry and exit.

2009-04-03x86, ACPI: add support for x2apic ACPI extensionsSuresh Siddha
All logical processors with APIC ID values of 255 and greater will have their APIC reported through Processor X2APIC structure (type-9 entry type) and all logical processors with APIC ID less than 255 will have their APIC reported through legacy Processor Local APIC (type-0 entry type) only. This is the same case even for NMI structure reporting. The Processor X2APIC Affinity structure provides the association between the X2APIC ID of a logical processor and the proximity domain to which the logical processor belongs. For OSPM, Procssor IDs outside the 0-254 range are to be declared as Device() objects in the ACPI namespace.

2009-04-03x86, PAT: Remove duplicate memtype reserve in pci mmapSuresh Siddha
pci mmap code was doing memtype reserve for a while now. Recently we added memtype tracking in remap_pfn_range, and pci code indirectly calls remap_pfn_range. So, we don't need seperate tracking in pci code anymore. Which means a patch that removes ~50 lines of code :-). Also, recently we found out that the pci tracking is not working as we expect it to work in some cases. Specifically, userlevel X mmap of pci, with some recent version of X, is having a problem with vm_page_prot getting reset. The pci tracking uses vm_page_prot to pass on the protection type from parent to child during fork. a) Parent does a pci mmap b) We look at PAT and get either UC_MINUS or WC mapping for parent c) Store that mapping type in vma vm_page_prot for future use d) This thread does a fork e) Fork results in mmap_ops ->open for the child process f) We get the vm_page_prot from vma and reserve that type for the child process But, between c) and e) above, the vma vm_page_prot is getting reset to zero. This results in PAT reserve failing at the time of fork as in here. http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123858163103240&w=2 This cleanup makes the above problem go away as we do not depend on vm_page_prot in our PAT code anymore.

2009-04-03x86: disable stack-protector for __restore_processor_state()Joseph Cihula
The __restore_processor_state() fn restores %gs on resume from S3. As such, it cannot be protected by the stack-protector guard since %gs will not be correct on function entry. There are only a few other fns in this file and it should not negatively impact kernel security that they will also have the stack-protector guard removed (and so it's not worth moving them to another file). Without this change, S3 resume on a kernel built with CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_ALL=y will fail.

2009-04-03x86/dma: unify definition of pci_unmap_addr* and pci_unmap_len macrosJoerg Roedel
Impact: unification of pci-dma macros and pci_32.h removal This patch unifies the definition of the pci_unmap_addr*, pci_unmap_len* and DECLARE_PCI_UNMAP* macros. This makes sense because the pci_unmap functions are no longer no-ops anymore when the kernel runs with CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG. Without an iommu or DMA_API_DEBUG it is a no-op on 32 bit because the dma mapping path returns a physical address and therefore the dma-api implementation has no internal state which needs to be destroyed with an unmap call. This unification also simplifies the port of x86_64 iommu drivers to 32 bit x86 and let us get rid of pci_32.h.

2009-04-02preadv/pwritev: Add preadv and pwritev system calls.Gerd Hoffmann
This patch adds preadv and pwritev system calls. These syscalls are a pretty straightforward combination of pread and readv (same for write). They are quite useful for doing vectored I/O in threaded applications. Using lseek+readv instead opens race windows you'll have to plug with locking. Other systems have such system calls too, for example NetBSD, check here: http://www.daemon-systems.org/man/preadv.2.html The application-visible interface provided by glibc should look like this to be compatible to the existing implementations in the *BSD family: ssize_t preadv(int d, const struct iovec *iov, int iovcnt, off_t offset); ssize_t pwritev(int d, const struct iovec *iov, int iovcnt, off_t offset); This prototype has one problem though: On 32bit archs is the (64bit) offset argument unaligned, which the syscall ABI of several archs doesn't allow to do. At least s390 needs a wrapper in glibc to handle this. As we'll need a wrappers in glibc anyway I've decided to push problem to glibc entriely and use a syscall prototype which works without arch-specific wrappers inside the kernel: The offset argument is explicitly splitted into two 32bit values. The patch sports the actual system call implementation and the windup in the x86 system call tables. Other archs follow as separate patches.

2009-04-02signals: remove 'handler' parameter to tracehook functionsOleg Nesterov
Container-init must behave like global-init to processes within the container and hence it must be immune to unhandled fatal signals from within the container (i.e SIG_DFL signals that terminate the process). But the same container-init must behave like a normal process to processes in ancestor namespaces and so if it receives the same fatal signal from a process in ancestor namespace, the signal must be processed. Implementing these semantics requires that send_signal() determine pid namespace of the sender but since signals can originate from workqueues/ interrupt-handlers, determining pid namespace of sender may not always be possible or safe. This patchset implements the design/simplified semantics suggested by Oleg Nesterov. The simplified semantics for container-init are: - container-init must never be terminated by a signal from a descendant process. - container-init must never be immune to SIGKILL from an ancestor namespace (so a process in parent namespace must always be able to terminate a descendant container). - container-init may be immune to unhandled fatal signals (like SIGUSR1) even if they are from ancestor namespace. SIGKILL/SIGSTOP are the only reliable signals to a container-init from ancestor namespace. This patch: Based on an earlier patch submitted by Oleg Nesterov and comments from Roland McGrath (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/19/258). The handler parameter is currently unused in the tracehook functions. Besides, the tracehook functions are called with siglock held, so the functions can check the handler if they later need to. Removing the parameter simiplifies changes to sig_ignored() in a follow-on patch.
