9ad11ab48b [PATCH] compat: fix compat_sys_openat and friends
Most of the 64 bit architectures will zero extend the first argument to
compat_sys_{openat,newfstatat,futimesat} which will fail if the 32 bit
syscall was passed AT_FDCWD (which is a small negative number).  Declare
the first argument to be an unsigned int which will force the correct
sign extension when the internal functions are called in each case.

Also, do some small white space cleanups in fs/compat.c.

fba3bad488 SUNRPC: Move upcall out of auth->au_ops->crcreate()
This fixes a bug whereby if two processes try to look up the same auth_gss
 credential, they may end up creating two creds, and triggering two upcalls
 because the upcall is performed before the credential is added to the
 credcache.

8a3177604b SUNRPC: Fix a lock recursion in the auth_gss downcall
When we look up a new cred in the auth_gss downcall so that we can stuff
 the credcache, we do not want that lookup to queue up an upcall in order
 to initialise it. To do an upcall here not only redundant, but since we
 are already holding the inode->i_mutex, it will trigger a lock recursion.

 This patch allows rpcauth cache searches to indicate that they can cope
 with uninitialised credentials.

aaaa99423b NLM: Ensure that nlmclnt_cancel_callback() doesn't loop forever
If the server returns NLM_LCK_DENIED_NOLOCKS, we currently retry the
 entire NLM_CANCEL request. This may end up looping forever unless the

72e5525765 [PATCH] uml: avoid "CONFIG_NR_CPUS undeclared" bogus error messages
Olaf Hering <olh@suse.de>

Olaf reported UML doesn't build for him with a clear analisys of what happened
- we're using NR_CPUS in files linked against glibc headers.  Seems like it
defines CONFIG_SMP but not CONFIG_NR_CPUS, so we get CONFIG_NR_CPUS
undeclared.

The fix is to move the declaration away from that header file and move it in
asm-um headers, and to add that header where needed.

975b3d3d5b [PATCH] VMSPLIT config options
Enable selection of different user/kernel VM splits for i386, including an
optimized mode for 1GB physical RAM, which gives the kernel a direct (non
HIGHMEM) mapping to the entire 1GB rather than just the first 896MB.

There is a similarly a similarly optimized mode for machines with exactly 2GB
of physical RAM.

This can speed up the kernel by avoiding having to create/destroy temporary
HIGHMEM mappings, and by not having to include HIGHMEM support at all on such
machines.  The flip side is that there's less virtual addressing left for
userspace in these alternatives, and some binary-only kernel modules may
misbehave unless rebuilt with the same VMSPLIT option as the main kernel
image.

Original idea/patch from Jens Axboe, modified based on suggestions from Linus
et al.

e965f9630c [PATCH] Direct Migration V9: Avoid writeback / page_migrate() method
Migrate a page with buffers without requiring writeback

This introduces a new address space operation migratepage() that may be used
by a filesystem to implement its own version of page migration.

A version is provided that migrates buffers attached to pages.  Some
filesystems (ext2, ext3, xfs) are modified to utilize this feature.

The swapper address space operation are modified so that a regular
migrate_page() will occur for anonymous pages without writeback (migrate_pages
forces every anonymous page to have a swap entry).

Direct migration support on top of the swap based page migration facility.

The patch is based on lots of patches from the hotplug project but the code
was restructured, documented and simplified as much as possible.

Note that an additional patch that defines the migrate_page() method for
filesystems is necessary in order to avoid writeback for anonymous and file

2a11ff06d7 [PATCH] zone_reclaim: configurable off node allocation period.
Currently the zone_reclaim code has a fixed window of 30 seconds of off node
allocations should a local zone have no unused pagecache pages left.  Reclaim
will be attempted again after this timeout period to avoid repeated useless
scans for memory.  This is also useful to established sufficiently large off
node allocation chunks to relieve the local node.

It may be beneficial to adjust that time period for some special situations.
For example if memory use was exceeding node capacity one may want to give up
for longer periods of time.  If memory spikes intermittendly then one may want
to shorten the time period to reduce the number of off node allocations.

This patch allows just that....

c27a0d75b3 [PATCH] Introduce __iowrite32_copy
This arch-independent routine copies data to a memory-mapped I/O region,
using 32-bit accesses.  The naming is double-underscored to make it clear
that it does not guarantee write ordering, nor does it perform a memory
barrier afterwards; the kernel doc also explicitly states this.  This style
of access is required by some devices.

This change also introduces include/linux/io.h, at Andrew's suggestion.  It
only has one occupant at the moment, but is a logical destination for
oft-replicated contents of include/asm-*/{io,iomap}.h to migrate to.

CPU0 expires a posix-timer and runs the callback function.  The signal is
queued.

After releasing the posix-timer lock and before returning to hrtimer_run_queue
CPU0 gets interrupted.  CPU1 delivers the queued signal and rearms the timer.
CPU0 comes back to hrtimer_run_queue and sets the timer state to expired.

The next modification of the timer can result in an oops, because the state
information is wrong.

Keep track of state = RUNNING and check if the state has been in the return
path of hrtimer_run_queue.  In case the state has been changed, ignore a
restart request and do not touch the state variable.

ed5a92700d [PATCH] tpm_bios: needs more securityfs_ functions
tpm_bios.c needs securityfs_xyz() functions.

Does include/linux/security.h need stubs for these, or should
char/tpm/Makefile just be modified to say:

ifdef CONFIG_ACPI
ifdef CONFIG_SECURITY
	obj-$(CONFIG_TCG_TPM) += tpm_bios.o
endif
endif

There are also some gcc and sparse warnings that could be fixed.

cc0fa84a01 [PATCH] powerpc: enable irq's for platform functions.
Make the platform function interrupt functions actually work.  Calls
irq_enable() for the first in the list, and irq_disable() for the last.

Added *func to struct irq_client so the the user can pass just that to
pmf_unregister_irq_client().

9cd6845511 [PATCH] fuse: fix async read for legacy filesystems
While asynchronous reads mean a performance improvement in most cases, if
the filesystem assumed that reads are synchronous, then async reads may
degrade performance (filesystem may receive reads out of order, which can
confuse it's own readahead logic).

With sshfs a 1.5 to 4 times slowdown can be measured.

There's also a need for userspace filesystems to know whether asynchronous
reads are supported by the kernel or not.

To achive these, negotiate in the INIT request whether async reads will be
used and the maximum readahead value.  Update interface version to 7.6

If userspace uses a version earlier than 7.6, then disable async reads, and
set maximum readahead value to the maximum read size, as done in previous
versions.
