2006-10-21[PATCH] cciss: Fix warnings (and bug on 1TB discs)Matthew Wilcox1-13/+9
CCISS was producing warnings about shifts being greater than the size of the type and pointers being of incompatible type. Turns out this is because it's calling do_div on a 32-bit quantity. Upon further investigation, the sector_t total_size is being assigned to an int, and then we're calling do_div on that int. Obviously, sector_div is called for here, and I took the chance to refactor the code a little.

Mistyped an ifdef CONFIG_CPUSETS - fixed. I doubt that anyone ever noticed. The impact of this typo was that if someone: 1) was using MPOL_BIND to force off node allocations 2) while using cpusets to constrain memory placement 3) when that cpuset was migrating that jobs memory 4) while the tasks in that job were actively forking then there was a rare chance that future allocations using that MPOL_BIND policy would be node local, not off node.

2006-10-21[PATCH] Slab: Do not fallback to nodes that have not been bootstrapped yetChristoph Lameter1-4/+7
The zonelist may contain zones of nodes that have not been bootstrapped and we will oops if we try to allocate from those zones. So check if the node information for the slab and the node have been setup before attempting an allocation. If it has not been setup then skip that zone. Usually we will not encounter this situation since the slab bootstrap code avoids falling back before we have setup the respective nodes but we seem to have a special needs for pppc.

The change from __setup() to module_param_named() requires users to prefix the option with "generic.". This patch re-adds the __setup() additionally to the module_param_named(). Usually it would make sense getting rid of such an obsolete __setup() at some time, but considering that drivers/ide/ is slowly approaching a RIP status it's already implicitely scheduled for removal.

2006-10-21[PATCH] sky2: 88E803X transmit lockupStephen Hemminger1-21/+12
The reason sky2 driver was locking up on transmit on the Yukon-FE chipset is that it was misconfiguring the internal RAM buffer so the transmitter and receiver were sharing the same space. The code assumed there was 16K of RAM on Yukon-FE (taken from vendor driver sk98lin which is even more f*cked up on this). Then it assigned based on that. The giveaway was that the registers would only hold 9bits so both RX/TX had 0..1ff for space. It is a wonder it worked at all! This patch addresses this, and fixes an easily reproducible hang on Transmit. Only the Yukon-FE chip is Marvell 88E803X (10/100 only) are affected.

By default route the 8254 over the 8259 and only disable it on ATI boards where this causes double timer interrupts. This should unbreak some Nvidia boards where the timer doesn't seem to tick of it isn't enabled in the 8259. At least one VIA board also seemed to have a little trouble with the disabled 8259. For 2.6.20 we'll try both dynamically without black listing, but I think for .19 this is the safer approach because it has been already well tested in earlier kernels.

2006-10-21[PATCH] x86-64: Put more than one cpu in TARGET_CPUSEric W. Biederman1-1/+1
TARGET_CPUS is the default irq routing poicy. It specifies which cpus the kernel should aim an irq at. In physflat delivery mode we can route an irq to a single cpu. But that doesn't mean our default policy should only be a single cpu is allowed. By allowing the irq routing code to select from multiple cpus this enables systems with more irqs then we can service on a single processor to actually work. I just audited and tested the code and irqbalance doesn't care, and the io_apic.c doesn't care if we have extra cpus in the mask. Everything will use or assume we are using the lowest numbered cpu in the mask if we can't use them all. So this should result in no behavior changes except on systems that need it.

2006-10-21[PATCH] x86: Revert new unwind kernel stack terminationAndi Kleen2-10/+1
Jan convinced me that it was unnecessary because the assembly stubs do this already on the stack. Cc: jbeulich@novell.com Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
2006-10-21[PATCH] x86-64: Use irq_domain in ioapic_retrigger_irqEric W. Biederman1-2/+5
Thanks to YH Lu for spotting this. It appears I missed this function when I refactored allocate_irq_vector and introduced irq_domain, with the result that all retriggered irqs would go to cpu 0 even if we were not prepared to receive them there. While reviewing YH's patch I also noticed that this function was missing locking, and since I am now reading two values from two diffrent arrays that looks like a race we might be able to hit in the real world.

2006-10-21[PATCH] x86-64: x86_64 add NX mask for PTE entrybibo,mao1-0/+1
If function change_page_attr_addr calls revert_page to revert to original pte value, mk_pte_phys does not mask NX bit. If NX bit is set on no NX hardware supported x86_64 machine, there is will be RSVD type page fault and system will crash. This patch adds NX mask bit for PTE entry.

2006-10-21[PATCH] x86-64: Speed up dwarf2 unwinderJan Beulich5-39/+299
This changes the dwarf2 unwinder to do a binary search for CIEs instead of a linear work. The linker is unfortunately not able to build a proper lookup table at link time, instead it creates one at runtime as soon as the bootmem allocator is usable (so you'll continue using the linear lookup for the first [hopefully] few calls). The code should be ready to utilize a build-time created table once a fixed linker becomes available. Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
2006-10-21[PATCH] x86: Use -maccumulate-outgoing-argsAndi Kleen2-0/+8
This avoids some problems with gcc 4.x and earlier generating invalid unwind information. In 4.1 the option is default when unwind information is enabled. And it seems to generate smaller code too, so it's probably a good thing on its own. With gcc 4.0: i386: 4683198 902112 480868 6066178 5c9002 vmlinux (before) 4449895 902112 480868 5832875 5900ab vmlinux (after) x86-64: 4939761 1449584 648216 7037561 6b6279 vmlinux (before) 4854193 1449584 648216 6951993 6a1439 vmlinux (after) On 4.1 it shouldn't make much difference because it is default when unwind is enabled anyways.
