Standby memory detected with the sclp interface gets always registered
with add_memory calls without considering the limitationt that the
"mem=" kernel paramater implies.
So fix this and only register standby memory that is below the specified
limit.
This fixes zfcpdump since it uses "mem=32M". In case there is appr.
2GB standby memory present all of usable memory would be used for the
struct pages needed for standby memory.

commit aa5e97ce4bbc9d5daeec16b1d15bb3f6b7b4f4d4
[PATCH] improve precision of process accounting.
Introduced a timing regression:
-bash-3.2# time ls
real 0m0.006s
user 0m1.754s
sys 0m1.094s
The problem was introduced by an error in cputime_to_timeval.
Cputime is now 1/4096 microsecond, therefore, we have to divide
the remainder with 4096 to get the microseconds.

Now, early_pfn_in_nid(PFN, NID) may returns false if PFN is a hole.
and memmap initialization was not done. This was a trouble for
sparc boot.
To fix this, the PFN should be initialized and marked as PG_reserved.
This patch changes early_pfn_in_nid() return true if PFN is a hole.

What's happening is that the assertion in mm/page_alloc.c:move_freepages()
is triggering:
BUG_ON(page_zone(start_page) != page_zone(end_page));
Once I knew this is what was happening, I added some annotations:
if (unlikely(page_zone(start_page) != page_zone(end_page))) {
printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: Bogus zones: "
"start_page[%p] end_page[%p] zone[%p]\n",
start_page, end_page, zone);
printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: "
"start_zone[%p] end_zone[%p]\n",
page_zone(start_page), page_zone(end_page));
printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: "
"start_pfn[0x%lx] end_pfn[0x%lx]\n",
page_to_pfn(start_page), page_to_pfn(end_page));
printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: "
"start_nid[%d] end_nid[%d]\n",
page_to_nid(start_page), page_to_nid(end_page));
...
And here's what I got:
move_freepages: Bogus zones: start_page[2207d0000] end_page[2207dffc0] zone[fffff8103effcb00]
move_freepages: start_zone[fffff8103effcb00] end_zone[fffff8003fffeb00]
move_freepages: start_pfn[0x81f600] end_pfn[0x81f7ff]
move_freepages: start_nid[1] end_nid[0]
My memory layout on this box is:
[ 0.000000] Zone PFN ranges:
[ 0.000000] Normal 0x00000000 -> 0x0081ff5d
[ 0.000000] Movable zone start PFN for each node
[ 0.000000] early_node_map[8] active PFN ranges
[ 0.000000] 0: 0x00000000 -> 0x00020000
[ 0.000000] 1: 0x00800000 -> 0x0081f7ff
[ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081f800 -> 0x0081fe50
[ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081fed1 -> 0x0081fed8
[ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081feda -> 0x0081fedb
[ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081fedd -> 0x0081fee5
[ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081fee7 -> 0x0081ff51
[ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081ff59 -> 0x0081ff5d
So it's a block move in that 0x81f600-->0x81f7ff region which triggers
the problem.
This patch:
Declaration of early_pfn_to_nid() is scattered over per-arch include
files, and it seems it's complicated to know when the declaration is used.
I think it makes fix-for-memmap-init not easy.
This patch moves all declaration to include/linux/mm.h
After this,
if !CONFIG_NODES_POPULATES_NODE_MAP && !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID
-> Use static definition in include/linux/mm.h
else if !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID
-> Use generic definition in mm/page_alloc.c
else
-> per-arch back end function will be called.

Shows rcu_check_callbacks() being invoked way too often. It should be called
once per jiffy, and here it is called no less than 22 times in about
3.5 milliseconds, meaning one call every 160 microseconds or so.
Why do we need to call rcu_pending() and rcu_check_callbacks() from the
idle loop of 32-bit x86, especially given that no other architecture does
this?
The following patch removes the call to rcu_pending() and
rcu_check_callbacks() from the x86 32-bit idle loop in order to
reduce the softirq load on idle systems.

Impact: cosmetic change in Kconfig menu layout
This patch was originally suggested by Peter Zijlstra, but seems it
was forgotten.
CONFIG_MMIOTRACE and CONFIG_MMIOTRACE_TEST were selectable
directly under the Kernel hacking / debugging menu in the kernel
configuration system. They were present only for x86 and x86_64.
Other tracers that use the ftrace tracing framework are in their own
sub-menu. This patch moves the mmiotrace configuration options there.
Since the Kconfig file, where the tracer menu is, is not architecture
specific, HAVE_MMIOTRACE_SUPPORT is introduced and provided only by
x86/x86_64. CONFIG_MMIOTRACE now depends on it.

In the past, kvm_get_kvm() and kvm_put_kvm() was called in assigned device irq
handler and interrupt_work, in order to prevent cancel_work_sync() in
kvm_free_assigned_irq got a illegal state when waiting for interrupt_work done.
But it's tricky and still got two problems:
1. A bug ignored two conditions that cancel_work_sync() would return true result
in a additional kvm_put_kvm().
2. If interrupt type is MSI, we would got a window between cancel_work_sync()
and free_irq(), which interrupt would be injected again...
This patch discard the reference count used for irq handler and interrupt_work,
and ensure the legal state by moving the free function at the very beginning of
kvm_destroy_vm(). And the patch fix the second bug by disable irq before
cancel_work_sync(), which may result in nested disable of irq but OK for we are
going to free it.

Between 2.6.23 and 2.6.24-rc1 a change was made that broke IBM LS21
systems that had the HPET enabled in the BIOS, resulting in boot hangs
for x86_64.
Specifically commit b8ce33590687888ebb900d09557b8807c4539022, which
merges the i386 and x86_64 HPET code.
Prior to this commit, when we setup the HPET timers in x86_64, we did
the following:
hpet_writel(HPET_TN_ENABLE | HPET_TN_PERIODIC | HPET_TN_SETVAL |
HPET_TN_32BIT, HPET_T0_CFG);
However after the i386/x86_64 HPET merge, we do the following:
cfg = hpet_readl(HPET_Tn_CFG(timer));
cfg |= HPET_TN_ENABLE | HPET_TN_PERIODIC |
HPET_TN_SETVAL | HPET_TN_32BIT;
hpet_writel(cfg, HPET_Tn_CFG(timer));
However on LS21s with HPET enabled in the BIOS, the HPET_T0_CFG register
boots with Level triggered interrupts (HPET_TN_LEVEL) enabled. This
causes the periodic interrupt to be not so periodic, and that results in
the boot time hang I reported earlier in the delay calibration.
My fix: Always disable HPET_TN_LEVEL when setting up periodic mode.

Fix the powerpc NUMA reserve bootmem page selection logic.
commit 8f64e1f2d1e09267ac926e15090fd505c1c0cbcb (powerpc: Reserve
in bootmem lmb reserved regions that cross NUMA nodes) changed
the logic for how the powerpc LMB reserved regions were converted
to bootmen reserved regions. As the folowing discussion reports,
the new logic was not correct.
mark_reserved_regions_for_nid() goes through each LMB on the
system that specifies a reserved area. It searches for
active regions that intersect with that LMB and are on the
specified node. It attempts to bootmem-reserve only the area
where the active region and the reserved LMB intersect. We
can not reserve things on other nodes as they may not have
bootmem structures allocated, yet.
We base the size of the bootmem reservation on two possible
things. Normally, we just make the reservation start and
stop exactly at the start and end of the LMB.
However, the LMB reservations are not aware of NUMA nodes and
on occasion a single LMB may cross into several adjacent
active regions. Those may even be on different NUMA nodes
and will require separate calls to the bootmem reserve
functions. So, the bootmem reservation must be trimmed to
fit inside the current active region.
That's all fine and dandy, but we trim the reservation
in a page-aligned fashion. That's bad because we start the
reservation at a non-page-aligned address: physbase.
The reservation may only span 2 bytes, but that those bytes
may span two pfns and cause a reserve_size of 2*PAGE_SIZE.
Take the case where you reserve 0x2 bytes at 0x0fff and
where the active region ends at 0x1000. You'll jump into
that if() statment, but node_ar.end_pfn=0x1 and
start_pfn=0x0. You'll end up with a reserve_size=0x1000,
and then call
reserve_bootmem_node(node, physbase=0xfff, size=0x1000);
0x1000 may not be on the same node as 0xfff. Oops.
In almost all the vm code, end_<anything> is not inclusive.
If you have an end_pfn of 0x1234, page 0x1234 is not
included in the range. Using PFN_UP instead of the
(>> >> PAGE_SHIFT) will make this consistent with the other VM
code.
We also need to do math for the reserved size with physbase
instead of start_pfn. node_ar.end_pfn << PAGE_SHIFT is
*precisely* the end of the node. However,
(start_pfn << PAGE_SHIFT) is *NOT* precisely the beginning

If we don't use physbase here, the reserve_size can be
made too large.

Impact: Flush the lazy MMU only once
Pending mmu updates only need to be flushed once to bring the

Impact: Catch cases where lazy MMU state is active in a preemtible context
arch_flush_lazy_mmu_cpu() has been changed to disable preemption so
the checks in enter/leave will never trigger. Put the preemtible()
check into arch_flush_lazy_mmu_cpu() to catch such cases.

Impact: avoid access to percpu vars in preempible context
They are intended to be used whenever there's the possibility
that there's some stale state which is going to be overwritten
with a queued update, or to force a state change when we may be
in lazy mode. Either way, we could end up calling it with
preemption enabled, so wrap the functions in their own little
preempt-disable section so they can be safely called in any
context (though preemption should never be enabled if we're actually
in a lazy state).
(Move out of line to avoid #include dependencies.)

Jeff Mahoney reported:
> With Suse's hwinfo tool, on -tip:
> WARNING: at arch/x86/mm/pat.c:637 reserve_pfn_range+0x5b/0x26d()
reserve_pfn_range() is not tracking the memory range below 1MB
as non-RAM and as such is inconsistent with similar checks in
reserve_memtype() and free_memtype()
Rename the pagerange_is_ram() to pat_pagerange_is_ram() and add the
"track legacy 1MB region as non RAM" condition.
And also, fix reserve_pfn_range() to return -EINVAL, when the pfn
range is RAM. This is to be consistent with this API design.

Impact: fix race leading to crash under KVM and Xen
The CPA code may be called while we're in lazy mmu update mode - for
example, when using DEBUG_PAGE_ALLOC and doing a slab allocation
in an interrupt handler which interrupted a lazy mmu update. In this
case, the in-memory pagetable state may be out of date due to pending
queued updates. We need to flush any pending updates before inspecting
the page table. Similarly, we must explicitly flush any modifications
CPA may have made (which comes down to flushing queued operations when
flushing the TLB).

Ptrace_detach() races with __ptrace_unlink() if the traced task is
reaped while detaching. This might cause a double-free of the BTS
buffer.
Change the ptrace_detach() path to only do the memory accounting in
ptrace_bts_detach() and leave the buffer free to ptrace_bts_untrace()
which will be called from __ptrace_unlink().
The fix follows a proposal from Oleg Nesterov.

The constraint used for retrieving and restoring the parent function
pointer is incorrect. The parent variable is a pointer, and the
address of the pointer is modified by the asm statement and not
the pointer itself. It is incorrect to pass it in as an output
constraint since the asm will never update the pointer.
