When PM-Timer is available for local APIC timer calibration we can skip the
verification of the calibrated time value. The resulting error is quite
small on a bunch of evaluated platforms and is less harming than the
observed false positives.
We need to keep the verification on systems, which have no PM-Timer to
avoid bogus local APIC timer calibrations in the range of factor 2-10,
which can be observed when swicthing off the PM-timer support in the kernel
configuration.
The wrong calibration values are probably caused by SMM code trying to
emulate a PS/2 keyboard from a (maybe connected or not) USB keyboard. This
prohibits the accurate delivery of PIT interrupts, which are used to
calibrate the local APIC timer. Unfortunately we have no way to disable
this BIOS misfeature in the early boot process.
Add also the dropped cpu_relax() back to the wait loops.

In sn_io_slot_fixup(), the parent is re-set from the bus to
io(port|mem)_resource because the address is changed in a way that it's not
child of the bus any more.
However, only the root is set but not the parent/child/sibling relationship
in the resource tree which causes 'cat /proc/iomem' to stop after this
memory area. Depding on the poition in the tree the iomem may be nearly
completely empty.

It's been pointed out that output GPIOs should have an initial value, to
avoid signal glitching ... among other things, it can be some time before
a driver is ready. This patch corrects that oversight, fixing
- documentation
- platforms supporting the GPIO interface
- users of that call (just one for now, others are pending)
There's only one user of this call for now since most platforms are still
using non-generic GPIO setup code, which in most cases already couples the
initial value with its "set output mode" request.
Note that most platforms are clear about the hardware letting the output
value be set before the pin direction is changed, but the s3c241x docs are
vague on that topic ... so those chips might not avoid the glitches.

We have to make sure to use base-pagesize TLB entries even during the

Also, it is necessary therefore to not use the 4MB TSB for these

to also get rid of the 4MB tsb for debug builds which shrinks the

VMI is broken under COMPAT_VDSO, as Xen and other non hardware assisted
hypervisors will be. I have been working on a fix for this which works
for older glibcs that panic when the new relocatable VDSO is used.
However, I believe at this time that the fix is going to be too radical
to consider at this stage in the release of 2.6.21. We don't expect
this config option to be turned on by vendors for new distributions, so
at this point we are willing to drop support for it when VMI is compiled
in, and work on a patch for 2.6.22 which more fully addresses the
problem.

When a SH7751R system includes a card that has wide range space
like a graphics card, the pci-pci bridge controller can't set the

0x4000000, in the following code at arch/sh/drivers/pci/pci-auto.c,
0x0 is set in bar_value.
pciauto_setup_bars()
{
...
bar_value = ((*lower_limit - 1) & ~(bar_size - 1)) + bar_size;
...
*lower_limit = bar_value + bar_size;
}
As a result, 0x4000000 is set in *lower_limit, but this value is wrong.
The following patch avoids this problem by checking the range of the
value and refusing to update the BAR if the calculated value ends up

Also PTRACE_OLDSETOPTIONS should be accepted, as done by kernel/ptrace.c
and forced by binary compatibility. UML/32bit breaks because of this -
since it is wise enough to use PTRACE_OLDSETOPTIONS to be binary compatible
with 2.4 host kernels.
Until 2.6.17 (commit f0f2d6536e) we had:
default:
return sys_ptrace(request, pid, addr, data);
Instead here we have:
case PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA:
case ...:
return sys_ptrace(request, pid, addr, data);
default:
return -EINVAL;
This change was a style change - when a case is added, it must be
explicitly tested this way. In this case, not enough testing was done.

Since both UML consoles do not use percpu variables, they may be called when
the cpu is still offline, and they may be marked CON_ANYTIME (this is
documented in kernel/printk.c, grep for CON_ANYTIME to find mentions of this).
Works well in testing done with lock debug enabled, should be safe but is not
needed for next release.
This would probably help also stderr_console.c, but this is yet to test.

The address where the ELF core header is stored is passed to the secondary
kernel as a kernel command line option. The memory area for this header is
also marked as a separate EFI memory descriptor on ia64.
The separate EFI memory descriptor is at the moment of the type
EFI_UNUSABLE_MEMORY. With such a type the secondary kernel skips over the
entire memory granule (config option, 16M or 64M) when detecting memory.
If we are lucky we will just lose some memory, but if we happen to have
data in the same granule (such as an initramfs image), then this data will
never get mapped and the kernel bombs out when trying to access it.
So this is an attempt to fix this by changing the EFI memory descriptor
type into EFI_LOADER_DATA. This type is the same type used for the kernel
data and for initramfs. In the secondary kernel we then handle the ELF
core header data the same way as we handle the initramfs image.
This patch contains the kernel changes to make this happen. Pretty
straightforward, we reserve the area in reserve_memory(). The address for
the area comes from the kernel command line and the size comes from the
specialized EFI parsing function vmcore_find_descriptor_size().
The kexec-tools-testing code for this can be found here:

Perfmon associates vmalloc()ed memory with a file descriptor, and installs
a vma mapping that memory. Unfortunately, the vm_file field is not filled
in, so processes with mappings to that memory do not prevent the file from
being closed and the memory freed. This results in use-after-free bugs and
multiple freeing of pages, etc.

Make saved_max_pfn point to max_pfn of entire system.
Without this patch is so that vmcore is zero length on ia64. This is
because saved_max_pfn was wrongly being set to the max_pfn of the crash
kernel's address space, rather than the max_pfg on the physical memory of
the machine - the whole purpose of vmcore is to access physical memory that
is not part of the crash kernel's addresss space.

Replaced check_user_space() + __check_access_register with the new
check_space(). The old functions made wrong assumptions about kernel
and user space when the kernel and user address spaces are switched
(kernel in home space, user in primary/secondary space).
Secondly the user process can switch to the accress register mode if
it is running in primary or secondary mode. In addition it can load
an arbitrary value to the access registers. If any other value than
0 for primary space or 1 for secondary space is loaded and memory
is accessed using the base register related to the access register,
the program should be terminated with a SIGSEGV. To achieve that the
DUALD pointer in the DUCT and the PSALD pointer in the PASTE need
to point to an array of 8 invalid access-list entries to get a
ALEN-translation exception if an invalid alet is used.
