4fa2564a6f [PATCH] i386 machine_power_off cleanup
Call machine_shutdown() to move to the boot cpu
and disable apics.  Both acpi_power_off and
apm_power_off want to move to the boot cpu.
and we are already disabling the local apics
so calling machine_shutdown simply reuses
code.

ia64 doesn't have a special path in power_off
for efi so there is no reason i386 should.  If
we really need to call the efi power off path
the efi driver can set pm_power_off like everyone
else.

machine_restart, machine_halt and machine_power_off are machine

72538d8565 Remove "noreplacement" kernel command line option.
It is no longer valid to not replace instructions, since we depend on
different behaviour depending on CPU capabilities.

If you need to limit the capabilities of the replacements (because the
boot CPU has features that non-boot CPU's do not have, for example), you
need to explicitly disable those capabilities that are not shared across
all CPU's.

For example, if your boot CPU has FXSR, but other CPU's in your system
do not, you need to use the "nofxsr" kernel command line, not disable
instruction replacement per se.

8ed1383fb7 x86: make restore_fpu() use alternative assembler instructions
It's really just a single instruction, conditional on whether the CPU
supports FXSR or not, so implement it as such instead of making it a
function that queries FXSR dynamically.

This means that the instruction just gets automatically rewritten to the
correct one at boot-time.

b339a18b81 Fix up incorrect "unlikely()" on %gs reload in x86 __switch_to
These days %gs is normally the TLS segment, so it's no longer zero.  As
a result, we shouldn't just assume that %fs/%gs tend to be zero
together, but test them independently instead.

Also, fix setting of debug registers to use the "next" pointer instead
of "current".  It so happens that the scheduler will have set the new
current pointer before calling __switch_to(), but that's just an
implementation detail.

0eeca28300 [PATCH] inotify
inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly
its inability to scale and its terrible user interface:

        * dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory
          that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many
          open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount.
        * dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to
          directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects
          the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of
          stat structures.
        * dnotify's interface to user-space is awful.  Signals?

inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change
notification:

        * inotify's interface is a system call that returns a fd, not SIGIO.
	  You get a single fd, which is select()-able.
        * inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item
          you were watching is on was unmounted."
        * inotify can watch directories or files.

Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure),
Gamin (a FAM replacement), and other projects.

If these maps are placed in the .data section then these frequenly read

case all processors in an SMP system must needlessly reload the cachelines

I started to look into how to move some of this to the driver core, I
thought it was time to clean it all up.

It ends up making the code smaller, and easier to follow, and fixes a
few bugs at the same time (dynamic ids were not being matched
everywhere, and so could be missed on some call paths for new devices,
semaphore not needed to be grabbed when adding a new id and calling the
driver core, etc.)

I also renamed the function pci_match_device() to pci_match_id() as
that's what it really does.

299de0343c [PATCH] PCI: pci_assign_unassigned_resources() on x86
- Add sanity check for io[port,mem]_resource in setup-bus.c. These
  resources look like "free" as they have no parents, but obviously
  we must not touch them.
- In i386.c:pci_allocate_bus_resources(), if a bridge resource cannot be
  allocated for some reason, then clear its flags. This prevents any child
  allocations in this range, so the setup-bus code will work with a clean
  resource sub-tree.
- i386.c:pcibios_enable_resources() doesn't enable bridges, as it checks
  only resources 0-5, which looks like a clear bug to me. I suspect it
  might break hotplug as well in some cases.

for all pci device accesses (as that's what it is there for, some boxes
don't put all the busses into one entry.)

If, for some reason, the table is incorrect, we fallback to the "old
style" of mmconfig accesses, namely, we just assume the first entry in
the table is the one for us, and blindly use it.

    o int acpi_register_ioapic(acpi_handle handle, u64 phys_addr,

        to which the I/O xAPIC is mapped and gsi_base is global system
        interrupt base of the I/O xAPIC. acpi_register_ioapic returns
        0 on success, or negative value on error.

    o int acpi_unregister_ioapic(acpi_handle handle, u32 gsi_base);

        This new interface is to remove a I/O xAPIC specified by

120bb4246a [PATCH] PCI Allow OutOfRange PIRQ table address
I updated this to remove unnecessary variable initialization, make
check_routing be inline only and not __init, switch to strtoul, and
formatting fixes as per Randy Dunlap's recommendations.

I updated this to change pirq_table_addr to a long, and to add a warning
msg if the PIRQ table wasn't found at the specified address, as per thread
with Matthew Wilcox.

In our hardware situation, the BIOS is unable to store or generate it's PIRQ
table in the F0000h-100000h standard range. This patch adds a pci kernel
parameter, pirqaddr to allow the bootloader (or BIOS based loader) to inform
the kernel where the PIRQ table got stored. A beneficial side-effect is that,
if one's BIOS uses a static address each time for it's PIRQ table, then
pirqaddr can be used to avoid the $pirq search through that address block each
time at boot for normal PIRQ BIOSes.

ffaa8bd6c9 [PATCH] seccomp: tsc disable
I believe at least for seccomp it's worth to turn off the tsc, not just for
HT but for the L2 cache too.  So it's up to you, either you turn it off
completely (which isn't very nice IMHO) or I recommend to apply this below
patch.

This has been tested successfully on x86-64 against current cogito
repository (i686 compiles so I didn't bother testing ;).  People selling
the cpu through cpushare may appreciate this bit for a peace of mind.

There's no way to get any timing info anymore with this applied
(gettimeofday is forbidden of course).  The seccomp environment is
completely deterministic so it can't be allowed to get timing info, it has
to be deterministic so in the future I can enable a computing mode that
does a parallel computing for each task with server side transparent
checkpointing and verification that the output is the same from all the 2/3
seller computers for each task, without the buyer even noticing (for now
the verification is left to the buyer client side and there's no
checkpointing, since that would require more kernel changes to track the
dirty bits but it'll be easy to extend once the basic mode is finished).

Eliminating a cold-cache read of the cr4 global variable will save one
cacheline during the tlb flush while making the code per-cpu-safe at the
same time.  Thanks to Mikael Pettersson for noticing the tlb flush wasn't
per-cpu-safe.

The global tlb flush can run from irq (IPI calling do_flush_tlb_all) but
it'll be transparent to the switch_to code since the IPI won't make any
change to the cr4 contents from the point of view of the interrupted code
and since it's now all per-cpu stuff, it will not race.  So no need to
disable irqs in switch_to slow path.

   freezing(process)		Check if a process is being frozen
   freeze(process)		Tell a process to freeze (go to refrigerator)
   thaw_process(process)	Restart process
   frozen_process(process)	Process is frozen now

2. Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all
   kernel sources except sched.h

3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver

4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls.

5. Some whitespace cleanup

6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE
   cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check
   PF_FROZEN).

This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule
that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE. This is not clean
in an SMP environment. freeze(process) is therefore not SMP safe!

9e84d1c36a [PATCH] i386: cleanup boot_cpu_logical_apicid variables
There are currently two different boot_cpu_logical_apicid variables:
- a global one in mpparse.c
- a static one in smpboot.c

Of these two, only the one in smpboot.c might be used (through
boot_cpu_apicid).

This patch therefore removes the one in mpparse.c .

f45494480f [PATCH] x86_64: coding style and whitespace fixups
Remove some of the unnecessary differences between arch/i386 and
arch/x86_64.  This patch fixes more whitespace issues, some miscellaneous
typos, a wrong URL and a factually incorrect statement about the current
boot sector code.

4f339ecb30 [PATCH] kdump: Save trap information for later analysis
If we are faulting in kernel it is quite possible this will lead to a
panic.  Save trap number, cr2 (in case of page fault) and error_code in the
current thread (these fields already exist for signal delivery but are not
used here).

This helps later kdump crash analyzing from user-space (a script has been
submitted to dig this info out in gdb).

6e274d1443 [PATCH] kdump: Use real pt_regs from exception
Makes kexec_crashdump() take a pt_regs * as an argument.  This allows to
get exact register state at the point of the crash.  If we come from direct
panic assertion NULL will be passed and the current registers saved before
crashdump.

This hooks into two places:
die(): check the conditions under which we will panic when calling
do_exit and go there directly with the pt_regs that caused the fatal
fault.

die_nmi(): If we receive an NMI lockup while in the kernel use the
pt_regs and go directly to crash_kexec(). We're probably nested up badly
at this point so this might be the only chance to escape with proper
information.
