481c5346d0 Slab: Fix memory leak in fallback_alloc()
The zonelist patches caused the loop that checks for available
objects in permitted zones to not terminate immediately. One object
per zone per allocation may be allocated and then abandoned.

Break the loop when we have successfully allocated one object.

71c2742f5e Add return value to reserve_bootmem_node()
This patch changes the function reserve_bootmem_node() from void to int,
returning -ENOMEM if the allocation fails.

This fixes a build problem on x86 with CONFIG_KEXEC=y and

Receiving packets while we are cleaning up a network namespace is a
racy proposition. It is possible when the packet arrives that we have
removed some but not all of the state we need to fully process it.  We
have the choice of either playing wack-a-mole with the cleanup routines
or simply dropping packets when we don't have a network namespace to
handle them.

Since the check looks inexpensive in netif_receive_skb let's just
drop the incoming packets.

if ->addr_num is large enough.

a744e0160a alpha: resurrect Cypress IDE quirk
Which was removed in the hope that generic legacy IDE quirk in
drivers/pci/probe.c is sufficient for Cypress IDE.
It isn't, as this controller has non-standard BAR layout:
secondary channel registers are in the BAR0-1 of the second
PCI function - not in the BAR2-3 of the same function, as the
generic quirk routine assumes.

d559d4a24a alpha: fix compile failures with gcc-4.3 (bug #10438)
Vast majority of these build failures are gcc-4.3 warnings
about static functions and objects being referenced from
non-static (read: "extern inline") functions, in conjunction
with our -Werror.

We cannot just convert "extern inline" to "static inline",
as people keep suggesting all the time, because "extern inline"
logic is crucial for generic kernel build.
So
- just make sure that all callees of critical "extern inline"
  functions are also "extern inline";
- use "static inline", wherever it's possible.

traps.c: work around gcc-4.3 being too smart about array
bounds-checking.

TODO: add "gnu_inline" attribute to all our "extern inline"
functions to ensure desired behaviour with future compilers.

ede426923b alpha: link failure fix
With built-in scsi disk driver, the final link fails with a following
error:
`.exit.text' referenced in section `.rodata' of drivers/built-in.o:
defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of drivers/built-in.o

This happens with -Os (CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y) with all gcc-4
versions, and also with -O2 and gcc-4.3.

The problem is in sd.c:sd_major() being inlined into __exit function
exit_sd(), and the compiler generating a jump table in .rodata section
for the 'switch' statement in sd_major(). So we have references to
discarded section.

Fixed with a big hammer in the form of -fno-jump-tables.

Note that jump tables vs. discarded sections is a generic problem,
other architectures are just lucky not to suffer from it. But with
a slightly more complex switch/case statement it can be reproduced
on x86 as well. So maybe at some point we should consider
-fno-jump-tables as a generic compile option...

9267b4b388 alpha: fix module load failures on smp (bug #10926)
To calculate addresses of locally defined variables, GCC uses 32-bit
displacement from the GP. Which doesn't work for per cpu variables in
modules, as an offset to the kernel per cpu area is way above 4G.

The workaround is to force allocation of a GOT entry for per cpu variable
using ldq instruction with a 'literal' relocation.
I had to use custom asm/percpu.h, as a required argument magic doesn't
work with asm-generic/percpu.h macros.

1f6ef23429 [watchdog] hpwdt: fix use of inline assembly
The inline assembly in drivers/watchdog/hpwdt.c was incredibly broken,
and included all the function prologue and epilogue stuff, even though
it was itself then inside a C function where the compiler would add its
own prologue and epilogue on top of it all.

This then just _happened_ to work if you had exactly the right compiler
version and exactly the right compiler flags, so that gcc just happened
to not create any prologue at all (the gcc-generated epilogue wouldn't
matter, since it would never be reached).

But the more proper way to fix it is to simply not do this.  Move the
inline asm to the top level, with no surrounding function at all (the
better alternative would be to remove the prologue and make it actually
use proper description of the arguments to the inline asm, but that's a
bigger change than the one I'm willing to make right now).

f54feafa6d ide: increase timeout in wait_drive_not_busy()
Some ATAPI devices take longer than the current max timeout value to
become ready (i.e. TEAC DV-W28ECW takes 6 ms) so increase the timeout
value to 10 ms.

This fixes kernel.org bugzilla bug #10887:

ce42a54946 palm_bk3710: fix resource management
The driver expected a *virtual* address in the IDE platform device's memory
resource and didn't request the memory region for the register block. Fix this
taking into account the fact that DaVinci SoC devices are fixed-mapped to the
virtual memory early and we can get their virtual addresses using IO_ADDRESS()
macro, not having to call ioremap()...

While at it, also do some cosmetic changes...

89f5b7da2a Reinstate ZERO_PAGE optimization in 'get_user_pages()' and fix XIP
KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki and Oleg Nesterov point out that since the commit
557ed1fa26 ("remove ZERO_PAGE") removed
the ZERO_PAGE from the VM mappings, any users of get_user_pages() will
generally now populate the VM with real empty pages needlessly.

We used to get the ZERO_PAGE when we did the "handle_mm_fault()", but
since fault handling no longer uses ZERO_PAGE for new anonymous pages,
we now need to handle that special case in follow_page() instead.

In particular, the removal of ZERO_PAGE effectively removed the core
file writing optimization where we would skip writing pages that had not
been populated at all, and increased memory pressure a lot by allocating
all those useless newly zeroed pages.

This reinstates the optimization by making the unmapped PTE case the
same as for a non-existent page table, which already did this correctly.

While at it, this also fixes the XIP case for follow_page(), where the
caller could not differentiate between the case of a page that simply
could not be used (because it had no "struct page" associated with it)
and a page that just wasn't mapped.

We do that by simply returning an error pointer for pages that could not
be turned into a "struct page *".  The error is arbitrarily picked to be
EFAULT, since that was what get_user_pages() already used for the
equivalent IO-mapped page case.

[ Also removed an impossible test for pte_offset_map_lock() failing:
  that's not how that function works ]

54481cf88b x86: fix NULL pointer deref in __switch_to
I am able to reproduce the oops reported by Simon in __switch_to() with
lguest.

My debug showed that there is at least one lguest specific
issue (which should be present in 2.6.25 and before aswell) and it got
exposed with a kernel oops with the recent fpu dynamic allocation patches.

In addition to the previous possible scenario (with fpu_counter), in the
presence of lguest, it is possible that the cpu's TS bit it still set and the
lguest launcher task's thread_info has TS_USEDFPU still set.

This is because of the way the lguest launcher handling the guest's TS bit.
(look at lguest_set_ts() in lguest_arch_run_guest()). This can result
in a DNA fault while doing unlazy_fpu() in __switch_to(). This will
end up causing a DNA fault in the context of new process thats
getting context switched in (as opossed to handling DNA fault in the context
of lguest launcher/helper process).

This is wrong in both pre and post 2.6.25 kernels. In the recent
2.6.26-rc series, this is showing up as NULL pointer dereferences or
sleeping function called from atomic context(__switch_to()), as
we free and dynamically allocate the FPU context for the newly
created threads. Older kernels might show some FPU corruption for processes
running inside of lguest.

With the appended patch, my test system is running for more than 50 mins
now. So atleast some of your oops (hopefully all!) should get fixed.
Please give it a try. I will spend more time with this fix tomorrow.

bb10ed0994 sched: fix wait_for_completion_timeout() spurious failure under heavy load
It seems that the current implementaton of wait_for_completion_timeout()
has a small problem under very high load for the common pattern:

	if (!wait_for_completion_timeout(&done, timeout))
		/* handle failure */

because the implementation very roughly does (lots of code deleted to
show the basic flow):

	static inline long __sched
	do_wait_for_common(struct completion *x, long timeout, int state)
	{
		if (x->done)
			return timeout;

		do {
			timeout = schedule_timeout(timeout);

			if (!timeout)
				return timeout;

		} while (!x->done);

		return timeout;
	}

so if the system is very busy and x->done is not set when
do_wait_for_common() is entered, it is possible that the first call to
schedule_timeout() returns 0 because the task doing wait_for_completion
doesn't get rescheduled for a long time, even if it is woken up early
enough.

In this case, wait_for_completion_timeout() returns 0 without even
checking x->done again, and the code above falls into its failure case
purely for scheduler reasons, even if the hardware event or whatever was
being waited for happened early enough.

It would make sense to add an extra test to do_wait_for() in the timeout
case and return 1 if x->done is actually set.

A quick audit (not exhaustive) of wait_for_completion_timeout() callers
seems to indicate that no one actually cares about the return value in
the success case -- they just test for 0 (timed out) versus non-zero
(wait succeeded).

d4abc238c9 sched, delay accounting: fix incorrect delay time when constantly waiting on runqueue
This patch corrects the incorrect value of per process run-queue wait
time reported by delay statistics. The anomaly was due to the following
reason. When a process leaves the CPU and immediately starts waiting for
CPU on the runqueue (which means it remains in the TASK_RUNNABLE state),
the time of re-entry into the run-queue is never recorded. Due to this,
the waiting time on the runqueue from this point of re-entry upto the
next time it hits the CPU is not accounted for. This is solved by
recording the time of re-entry of a process leaving the CPU in the
sched_info_depart() function IF the process will go back to waiting on
the run-queue. This IF condition is verified by checking whether the
process is still in the TASK_RUNNABLE state.

The patch was tested on 2.6.26-rc6 using two simple CPU hog programs.
The values noted prior to the fix did not account for the time spent on
the runqueue waiting. After the fix, the correct values were reported
back to user space.
