5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

d8191fa4a3 ACPI: processor: driver doesn't need to evaluate _PDC
Now that the early _PDC evaluation path knows how to correctly
evaluate _PDC on only physically present processors, there's no
need for the processor driver to evaluate it later when it loads.

To cover the hotplug case, push _PDC evaluation down into the
hotplug paths.

52cf25d0ab Driver core: Constify struct sysfs_ops in struct kobj_type
Constify struct sysfs_ops.

This is part of the ops structure constification
effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.

Benefits of this constification:

 * prevents modification of data that is shared
   (referenced) by many other structure instances
   at runtime

 * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
   modification attempts on archs that enforce
   read-only kernel data at runtime

 * potentially better optimized code as the compiler
   can assume that the const data cannot be changed

 * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
   and therefore exclude them from false sharing

8d9032bbe4 elf coredump: add extended numbering support
The current ELF dumper implementation can produce broken corefiles if
program headers exceed 65535.  This number is determined by the number of
vmas which the process have.  In particular, some extreme programs may use
more than 65535 vmas.  (If you google max_map_count, you can find some
users facing this problem.) This kind of program never be able to generate
correct coredumps.

This patch implements ``extended numbering'' that uses sh_info field of
the first section header instead of e_phnum field in order to represent
upto 4294967295 vmas.

This is supported by
AMD64-ABI(http://www.x86-64.org/documentation.html) and
Solaris(http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-1984/).
Of course, we are preparing patches for gdb and binutils.

1fcccbac89 elf coredump: replace ELF_CORE_EXTRA_* macros by functions
elf_core_dump() and elf_fdpic_core_dump() use #ifdef and the corresponding
macro for hiding _multiline_ logics in functions.  This patch removes
#ifdef and replaces ELF_CORE_EXTRA_* by corresponding functions.  For
architectures not implemeonting ELF_CORE_EXTRA_*, we use weak functions in
order to reduce a range of modification.

This cleanup is for my next patches, but I think this cleanup itself is
worth doing regardless of my firnal purpose.

5beb493052 mm: change anon_vma linking to fix multi-process server scalability issue
The old anon_vma code can lead to scalability issues with heavily forking
workloads.  Specifically, each anon_vma will be shared between the parent
process and all its child processes.

In a workload with 1000 child processes and a VMA with 1000 anonymous
pages per process that get COWed, this leads to a system with a million
anonymous pages in the same anon_vma, each of which is mapped in just one
of the 1000 processes.  However, the current rmap code needs to walk them
all, leading to O(N) scanning complexity for each page.

This can result in systems where one CPU is walking the page tables of
1000 processes in page_referenced_one, while all other CPUs are stuck on
the anon_vma lock.  This leads to catastrophic failure for a benchmark
like AIM7, where the total number of processes can reach in the tens of
thousands.  Real workloads are still a factor 10 less process intensive
than AIM7, but they are catching up.

This patch changes the way anon_vmas and VMAs are linked, which allows us
to associate multiple anon_vmas with a VMA.  At fork time, each child
process gets its own anon_vmas, in which its COWed pages will be
instantiated.  The parents' anon_vma is also linked to the VMA, because
non-COWed pages could be present in any of the children.

This reduces rmap scanning complexity to O(1) for the pages of the 1000
child processes, with O(N) complexity for at most 1/N pages in the system.
 This reduces the average scanning cost in heavily forking workloads from
O(N) to 2.

The only real complexity in this patch stems from the fact that linking a
VMA to anon_vmas now involves memory allocations.  This means vma_adjust
can fail, if it needs to attach a VMA to anon_vma structures.  This in
turn means error handling needs to be added to the calling functions.

A second source of complexity is that, because there can be multiple
anon_vmas, the anon_vma linking in vma_adjust can no longer be done under
"the" anon_vma lock.  To prevent the rmap code from walking up an
incomplete VMA, this patch introduces the VM_LOCK_RMAP VMA flag.  This bit
flag uses the same slot as the NOMMU VM_MAPPED_COPY, with an ifdef in mm.h
to make sure it is impossible to compile a kernel that needs both symbolic
values for the same bitflag.

Some test results:

Without the anon_vma changes, when AIM7 hits around 9.7k users (on a test
box with 16GB RAM and not quite enough IO), the system ends up running
>99% in system time, with every CPU on the same anon_vma lock in the
pageout code.

With these changes, AIM7 hits the cross-over point around 29.7k users.
This happens with ~99% IO wait time, there never seems to be any spike in
system time.  The anon_vma lock contention appears to be resolved.

e72aca3083 [IA64] build arch/ia64/kernel/acpi-ext.o when CONFIG_ACPI
Simplify the makefile slightly by always building acpi-ext.o when

Yes, this adds a little bloat to the other configs, but not much:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
    839	     41	      0	    880	    370	arch/ia64/kernel/acpi-ext.o

Before:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec		    hex	filename
10952753	1299212	1334241	13586206	 cf4f1e	vmlinux

After:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec		    hex	filename
10953739	1299084	1334241	13587064	 cf5278	vmlinux

(gdb) p 13587064 - 13586206
$2 = 858

Seems like a small price to pay for the benefit of not having to think
so hard about the multitude of ia64 configs when reading code/Makefiles.

d868080d2a [IA64] Only build arch/ia64/kernel/acpi.o when CONFIG_ACPI
The following commit broke the ia64 sim_defconfig build:
	3b2b84c0b81108a9a869a88bf2beeb5a95d81dd1
	ACPI: processor: driver doesn't need to evaluate _PDC

This is because it added:
	+#include <acpi/processor.h>

To arch/ia64/kernel/acpi.c. Unfortunately, the ia64_simdefconfig does
not turn on CONFIG_ACPI, and we get build errors.

The fix described in $subject seems to be the most sensible way to
untangle the mess.

The other issue is that acpi_get_sysname() is required for all configs,
most of which define CONFIG_ACPI, but are not CONFIG_IA64_GENERIC. Turn
it into an inline to cover the "non generic" ia64 configs; to prevent
a duplicate definition build error, we need to wrap the definition in
acpi.o inside an #ifdef.

Finally, move the pm_idle and pm_power_off exports into process.c (which
is always built), similar to other architectures, and allow the sim
defconfig to link.

The only thing arch-specific about calling _PDC is what bits get
set in the input obj_list buffer.

There's no need for several levels of indirection to twiddle those
bits. Additionally, since we're just messing around with a buffer,
we can simplify the interface; no need to pass around the entire
struct acpi_processor * just to get at the buffer.

407cd87c54 ACPI: processor: unify arch_acpi_processor_init_pdc
The x86 and ia64 implementations of arch_acpi_processor_init_pdc()
are almost exactly the same. The only difference is in what bits
they set in obj_list buffer.

Combine the boilerplate memory management code, and leave the
arch-specific bit twiddling in separate implementations.

9ee27c7639 [IA64] Save I-resources to ia64_sal_os_state
This is a patch related to this discussion.
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-ia64/msg07605.html

When INIT is sent, ip/psr/pfs register is stored to the I-resources
(iip/ipsr/ifs registers), and they are copied in the min-state save
area(pmsa_{iip,ipsr,ifs}).

Therefore, in creating pt_regs at ia64_mca_modify_original_stack(),
cr_{iip,ipsr,ifs} should be derived from pmsa_{iip,ipsr,ifs}. But
current code copies pmsa_{xip,xpsr,xfs} to cr_{iip,ipsr,ifs}
when PSR.ic is 0.

finish_pt_regs(struct pt_regs *regs, const pal_min_state_area_t *ms,
                unsigned long *nat)
{
(snip)
        if (ia64_psr(regs)->ic) {
                regs->cr_iip = ms->pmsa_iip;
                regs->cr_ipsr = ms->pmsa_ipsr;
                regs->cr_ifs = ms->pmsa_ifs;
        } else {
                regs->cr_iip = ms->pmsa_xip;
                regs->cr_ipsr = ms->pmsa_xpsr;
                regs->cr_ifs = ms->pmsa_xfs;
        }

It's ok when PSR.ic is not 0. But when PSR.ic is 0, this could be
a problem when we investigate kernel as the value of regs->cr_iip does
not point to where INIT really interrupted.

At first I tried to change finish_pt_regs() so that it uses always
pmsa_{iip,ipsr,ifs} for cr_{iip,ipsr,ifs}, but Keith Owens pointed out
it could cause another problem if I change it.

>The only problem I can think of is an MCA/INIT
>arriving while code like SAVE_MIN or SAVE_REST is executing.  Back
>tracing at that point using pmsa_iip is going to be a problem, you have
>no idea what state the registers or stack are in.

I confirmed he was right, so I decided to keep it as-is and to
save pmsa_{iip,ipsr,ifs} to ia64_sal_os_state for debugging.

An attached patch is just adding new members into ia64_sal_os_state to
save pmsa_{iip,ipsr,ifs}.

09b366b78c [IA64] preallocate IA64_IRQ_MOVE_VECTOR
Previously, we tried to use IA64_DEF_FIRST_DEVICE_VECTOR (0x30) as the
IA64_IRQ_MOVE_VECTOR.  However, we allocate other IRQs from the device
vector range, so there's no guarantee that IA64_DEF_FIRST_DEVICE_VECTOR
will still be available when we register IA64_IRQ_MOVE_VECTOR.

This patch statically allocates 0x30 for IA64_IRQ_MOVE_VECTOR and
removes it from the device vector range.

Without this patch, we crash on machines like the HP rx3600 that use
vector 48 (0x30) as the ACPI SCI interrupt:

bb52d66940 Get rid of open-coding in ia64_brk()
The comment in there used to be true, but these days do_brk() does
the arch-specific check that covers what we open-coded here.  So we
can use sys_brk() just fine, only need to do force_successful_syscall_return()
after it.

See commit 3a45975681 - that's when the
checks in do_brk() had been originally added.

0696b711e4 timekeeping: Fix clock_gettime vsyscall time warp
Since commit 0a544198 "timekeeping: Move NTP adjusted clock multiplier
to struct timekeeper" the clock multiplier of vsyscall is updated with
the unmodified clock multiplier of the clock source and not with the
NTP adjusted multiplier of the timekeeper.

This causes user space observerable time warps:
new CLOCK-warp maximum: 120 nsecs,  00000025c337c537 -> 00000025c337c4bf

Add a new argument "mult" to update_vsyscall() and hand in the
timekeeping internal NTP adjusted multiplier.
