9aa8d7195a i386: clean up oops/bug reports
Typically the oops first lines look like this:

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
 printing eip:
c049dfbd
*pde = 00000000
Oops: 0002 [#1]
PREEMPT SMP
...

Such output is gained with some ugly if (!nl) printk("\n"); code and
besides being a waste of lines, this is also annoying to read. The
following output looks better (and it is how it looks on x86_64):

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
printing eip: c049dfbd *pde = 00000000
Oops: 0002 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
...

c789c037e9 x86: call cache_add_dev() from cache_sysfs_init() explicitly
Call cache_add_dev() from cache_sysfs_init() explicitly, instead of
referencing the CPU notifier callback directly from generic startup
code. Looks cleaner (to me at least) this way, and also makes it
possible to use other tricks to replace __cpuinit{data} annotations, as
recently discussed on this list.

06f99ac87e x86: vdso put vars in rodata
This adds a const to the definitions vvar.c makes, so that the vdso_*
variables go into .rodata instead of .data.  This is essentially a
cosmetic change, just giving the section headers in the vDSO file more
pleasing flags. These variables are read-only from the perspective of
the vDSO itself and user mode, even though the contents of the DSO image
were adjusted at boot.

98c9e27a56 x86: fix cpu_to_node references
In x86_64 and i386 architectures most arrays that are sized using
NR_CPUS lay in local memory on node 0.  Not only will most (99%?) of the
systems not use all the slots in these arrays, particularly when NR_CPUS
is increased to accommodate future very high cpu count systems, but a
number of cache lines are passed unnecessarily on the system bus when
these arrays are referenced by cpus on other nodes.

Typically, the values in these arrays are referenced by the cpu
accessing it's own values, though when passing IPI interrupts, the cpu
does access the data relevant to the targeted cpu/node.  Of course, if
the referencing cpu is not on node 0, then the reference will still
require cross node exchanges of cache lines.  A common use of this is
for an interrupt service routine to pass the interrupt to other cpus
local to that node.

Ideally, all the elements in these arrays should be moved to the per_cpu
data area.  In some cases (such as x86_cpu_to_apicid) the array is
referenced before the per_cpu data areas are setup.  In this case, a
static array is declared in the __initdata area and initialized by the
booting cpu (BSP).  The values are then moved to the per_cpu area after
it is initialized and the original static array is freed with the rest
of the __initdata.

This patch:

Fix four instances where cpu_to_node is referenced by array instead of
via the cpu_to_node macro.  This is preparation to moving it to the
per_cpu data area.

92b2dc79c3 x86: remove STR() macros
This patch removes the __STR() and STR() macros from x86_64 header files.
They seem to be legacy, and has no more users. Even if there were users,
they should use __stringify() instead.

In fact, there were one third place in which this macro was defined
(ia32_binfmt.c), and used just below. In this file, usage was properly
converted to __stringify()

1e32b073f3 i386: misc cpuinit annotations
cpuid_class_cpu_callback() is callback function of a CPU hotplug
notifier_block (that is already marked as __cpuinitdata). Therefore
it can safely be marked as __cpuinit.

cpuid_device_create() is only referenced from other functions that
are __cpuinit or __init. So it can also be safely marked __cpuinit.

7b38493501 x86: intel_cacheinfo misc section annotation fixes
cache_shared_cpu_map_setup() and cache_remove_shared_cpu_map()
are functions called from another function that is __cpuinit.  But the
!CONFIG_SMP empty-body stubs of these functions are unconditionally
marked __init, which is actively wrong, and will lead to oops.  But we
never saw this oops, because they always managed to get inlined in their
callsites, by virtue of being empty-body stubs!  They should still be
__cpuinit, of course.

assocs[], levels[] and types[] are only referenced from function that is
__cpuinit.  So these are candidates for being marked __cpuinitdata.

  for people who want to download and install it there.  It acts as a udev

  For the time being, patching the kernel is necessary.  I really hope
  biosdevname eliminates that need in future distributions.

d588ba8c09 x86: Calgary: fix disable busnum for CalIOC2
The old check we used based on dev->bus->number is wrong for devices on
CalIOC2.  Instead look whether we have an IOMMU table for that bus - if
not, translation is disabled.

Thanks to Murillo Fernandes Bernardes <bernarde@br.ibm.com> for
spotting, suggesting a fix and testing.

84e0fdb175 x86: NX bit handling in change_page_attr()
This patch fixes a bug of change_page_attr/change_page_attr_addr on
Intel x86_64 CPUs.  After changing page attribute to be executable with
these functions, the page remains un-executable on Intel x86_64 CPU.
Because on Intel x86_64 CPU, only if the "NX" bits of all four level
page tables are cleared, the corresponding page is executable (refer to
section 4.13.2 of Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's
Manual).  So, the bug is fixed through clearing the "NX" bit of PMD when
splitting the huge PMD.

509a80c49c x86: fix CONFIG_PAGEALLOC related boot hangs/OOMs
if CONFIG_PAGEALLOC is enabled then X86_FEATURE_PSE is disabled and all
the kernel physical RAM pagetables are set up as 4K pages. This is
needed so that CONFIG_PAGEALLOC can do finegrained mapping and unmapping
of pages.

as a side-effect though, the total size of memory allocated as kernel
pagetables increases significantly. All these pagetables are allocated
via alloc_bootmem_low_pages(), straight out of the lowmem DMA pool. If
the system has enough RAM and a large kernel image then almost all of
the 16 MB lowmem DMA pool is allocated to the image and to pagetables -
leaving no space for __GFP_DMA allocations.

this results in drivers failing and the bootup hanging:

  =======================

the fix is to first allocate from above the DMA pool, and if that fails
(for example due to it being a machine with less than 16 MB of RAM),
allocate from the DMA pool as a fallback.

With this fix applied i was able to boot a PAGEALLOC=y kernel that would
hang before.

notifier callback function itself has been marked __cpuinit which becomes
__init == .init.text when HOTPLUG_CPU=n.  The warning is bogus because the
callback will never be called out if HOTPLUG_CPU=n in the first place (as
one can see from kernel/cpu.c, the cpu_chain itself is __cpuinitdata :-)

the section mismatch warning.

60b0d65541 [MIPS] SYNC emulation for MIPS I processors
Userland, including the C library and the dynamic linker, is keen to use
the SYNC instruction, even for "generic" MIPS I binaries these days.
Which makes it less than useful on MIPS I processors.

This change adds the emulation, but as our do_ri() infrastructure was not
really prepared to take yet another instruction, I have rewritten it and
its callees slightly as follows.

Now there is only a single place a possible signal is thrown from.  The
place is at the end of do_ri().  The instruction word is fetched in
do_ri() and passed down to handlers.  The handlers are called in sequence
and return a result that lets the caller decide upon further processing.
If the result is positive, then the handler has picked the instruction,
but a signal should be thrown and the result is the signal number.  If the
result is zero, then the handler has successfully simulated the
instruction.  If the result is negative, then the handler did not handle
the instruction; to make it more obvious the calls do not follow the usual
0/-Exxx result convention they now return -1 instead of -EFAULT.

The calculation of the return EPC is now at the beginning.  The reason is
it is easier to handle it there as emulation callees may modify a register
and an instruction may be located in delay slot of a branch whose result
depends on the register.  It has to be undone if a signal is to be raised,
but it is not a problem as this is the slow-path case, and both actions
are done in single places now rather than the former being scattered
through emulation handlers.

The part of do_cpu() being covered follows the changes to do_ri().

There are no plans to do anything about this piece of code and it does not
fit anywhere anymore, so it is not just a matter of maintenance or the lack
of.  There are still some bits that might be added to the new lkkbd.c
driver based on the old code, and the embedded hardware documentation which
is otherwise quite hard to get hold of might be useful to keep too.  Both
of these can be done separately though.  RIP.

more modern brothers and can easily be replaced by dma_cache_sync.  So
remove it rsp.  turn the surviving bits back into an arch private API, as

fd59d231f8 Add vmcoreinfo
This patch set frees the restriction that makedumpfile users should install a
vmlinux file (including the debugging information) into each system.

makedumpfile command is the dump filtering feature for kdump.  It creates a
small dumpfile by filtering unnecessary pages for the analysis.  To
distinguish unnecessary pages, it needs a vmlinux file including the debugging
information.  These days, the debugging package becomes a huge file, and it is
hard to install it into each system.

To solve the problem, kdump developers discussed it at lkml and kexec-ml.  As
the result, we reached the conclusion that necessary information for dump
filtering (called "vmcoreinfo") should be embedded into the first kernel file
and it should be accessed through /proc/vmcore during the second kernel.
(http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0707.0/1806.html)

Dan Aloni created the patch set for the above implementation.
(http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0707.1/1053.html)

7dc0b22e3c core_pattern: ignore RLIMIT_CORE if core_pattern is a pipe
For some time /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern has been able to set its output
destination as a pipe, allowing a user space helper to receive and
intellegently process a core.  This infrastructure however has some
shortcommings which can be enhanced.  Specifically:

1) The coredump code in the kernel should ignore RLIMIT_CORE limitation
   when core_pattern is a pipe, since file system resources are not being
   consumed in this case, unless the user application wishes to save the core,
   at which point the app is restricted by usual file system limits and
   restrictions.

2) The core_pattern code should be able to parse and pass options to the
   user space helper as an argv array.  The real core limit of the uid of the
   crashing proces should also be passable to the user space helper (since it
   is overridden to zero when called).

3) Some miscellaneous bugs need to be cleaned up (specifically the
   recognition of a recursive core dump, should the user mode helper itself
   crash.  Also, the core dump code in the kernel should not wait for the user
   mode helper to exit, since the same context is responsible for writing to
   the pipe, and a read of the pipe by the user mode helper will result in a
   deadlock.

This patch:

Remove the check of RLIMIT_CORE if core_pattern is a pipe.  In the event that
core_pattern is a pipe, the entire core will be fed to the user mode helper.

1f7d6668c2 powerpc: add Altivec/VMX state to coredumps

it dumps the Altivec/VMX registers (VR[0] - VR[31], VSCR and VRSAVE) in the
same format as the ptrace get_vrregs(), and add the appropriate glue
typedef and #defines to make it work.

A new note type of NT_PPC_VMX was chosen to be 0x100 (arbitrarily) because
it allows the low range values to be used for more generic purposes and
0x100 seems an adequate starting point for PowerPC extensions.

5b20cd80b4 x86: replace NT_PRXFPREG with ELF_CORE_XFPREG_TYPE #define
Replace NT_PRXFPREG with ELF_CORE_XFPREG_TYPE in the coredump code which
allows for more flexibility in the note type for the state of 'extended
floating point' implementations in coredumps.  New note types can now be
added with an appropriate #define.

This does #define ELF_CORE_XFPREG_TYPE to be NT_PRXFPREG in all
current users so there's are no change in behaviour.

This will let us use different note types on powerpc for the Altivec/VMX
state that some PowerPC cpus have (G4, PPC970, POWER6) and for the SPE
(signal processing extension) state that some embedded PowerPC cpus from
Freescale have.

since they should never be replacing one VSID with another using the
same ESID.  I.e. there's no risk for inserting duplicate entries due to a
failed slbie of the old entry.  So as long as we clear it out on context
switch we should be fine.

9697add0f8 [POWERPC] Quieten cache information at boot
After 6 years the ppc64 kernel still thinks its important to tell me my
cache line size is 0x80 bytes. I think most people who care know that by
now. The rest probably cant even understand the hex output.

Since we might have misconfigured firmware or cpus that have a linesize
that isnt 128 bytes, I still print it out for those cases. If people
would prefer to remove it completely, lets do it.

Also for lpar remove the htab_address printout since its not used.

309a109255 [POWERPC] Enable SLUB in *_defconfig
When checking out the new NO_HZ support in powerpc, I noticed we never
slept for more than 2 seconds.  It turns out SLAB has a 2 second per cpu
timer that causes this.

After switching to SLUB I see some nice 4 second sleeps which is the
limit on this POWER6 box (the decrementer ticks at 512MHz):

slept 4.19 sec
slept 4.19 sec
slept 4.19 sec
slept 4.19 sec
slept 3.96 sec
slept 3.80 sec
slept 2.99 sec

Since SLUB is now the default and some powerpc defconfigs already enable
it, lets enable SLUB across the board for consistency.  While doing this
I also noticed that the maple defconfig has SLAB debugging enabled which
is sure to make your box nice and slow.  Fix that too.
