841e40b380 Opteron revision F will support higher frequencies than
can be encoded in the current driver's 4 bit frequency
field.  This patch updates the driver to support Rev F
including 6 bit FIDs and processor ID updates.

This should apply cleanly whether or not the dual-core
bugfix I sent out last week is applied.  I'd prefer
that both get applied, of course.

03938c3f10 powernow-k8 requires that a data structure for
each core be created in the _cpu_init function
call.  The cpufreq infrastructure doesn't call
_cpu_init for the second core in each processor.
Some systems crashed when _get was called with
an odd-numbered core because it tried to
dereference a NULL pointer since the data
structure had not been created.

The attached patch solves the problem by
initializing data structures for all shared
cores in the _cpu_init function.  It should
apply to 2.6.12-rc6 and has been tested by
AMD and Sun.

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It is no longer valid to not replace instructions, since we depend on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.

See Documentation/filesystems/inotify.txt.

6c036527a6 [PATCH] mostly_read data section
Add a new section called ".data.read_mostly" for data items that are read
frequently and rarely written to like cpumaps etc.

If these maps are placed in the .data section then these frequenly read
items may end up in cachelines with data is is frequently updated.  In that
case all processors in an SMP system must needlessly reload the cachelines
again and again containing elements of those frequently used variables.

The ability to share these cachelines will allow each cpu in an SMP system
to keep local copies of those shared cachelines thereby optimizing
performance.

7586585897 [PATCH] PCI: clean up dynamic pci id logic
The dynamic pci id logic has been bothering me for a while, and now that
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.

b1bb248a5d [PATCH] ACPI based I/O APIC hot-plug: add interfaces
This patch adds the following new interfaces for I/O xAPIC
hotplug. The implementation of these interfaces depends on each
architecture.

    o int acpi_register_ioapic(acpi_handle handle, u64 phys_addr,
			       u32 gsi_base);

        This new interface is to add a new I/O xAPIC specified by
        phys_addr and gsi_base pair. phys_addr is the physical address
        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
        gsi_base. acpi_unregister_ioapic returns 0 on success, or
        negative value on error.

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.

3e1d1d28d9 [PATCH] Cleanup patch for process freezing
1. Establish a simple API for process freezing defined in linux/include/sched.h:

   frozen(process)		Check for frozen process
   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!

fault.

die_nmi(): If we receive an NMI lockup while in the kernel use the

1bc3b91aee [PATCH] crashdump: x86 crashkernel option
This is the x86 implementation of the crashkernel option.  It reserves a
window of memory very early in the bootup process, so we never use it for
anything but the kernel to switch to when the running kernel panics.

In addition to reserving this memory a resource structure is registered so
looking at /proc/iomem it is clear what happened to that memory.

ISSUES:
Is it possible to implement this in a architecture generic way?
What should be done with architectures that always use an iommu and
thus don't report their RAM memory resources in /proc/iomem?

63d30298ef [PATCH] kexec: x86 shutdown APICs during crash_shutdown
In the case of a crash/panic an architecture specific function
machine_crash_shutdown is called.  This patch adds to the x86 machine_crash
function the standard kernel code for shutting down apics.

Every line of code added to that function increases the risk that we will call
code after a kernel panic that is not safe.

This patch should not make it to the stable kernel without a being reviewed a
lot more.  It is unclear how much a hardned kernel can take when it comes to
misconfigured apics.  So since a normal kernel has problems this patch does a
clean shutdown.

It is my expectation this patch will be dropped from future generations of the
kexec work.  But for the moment it is a crutch to keep from breaking
everything.

2c818b45a2 [PATCH] kexec: x86: snapshot registers during crash shutdown
After the kernel panics if we wish to generate an entire machine core file it
is very nice to know the register state at the time the machine crashed.

After long discussion it was realized that if you are going to be saving the
information anyway it is reasonable to store the information in a format that
it will be used and recognized in so the register state is stored in the
standard ELF note format.

c4ac4263a0 [PATCH] crashdump: x86: add NMI handler to capture other CPUs
One of the dangers when switching from one kernel to another is what happens
to all of the other cpus that were running in the crashed kernel.  In an
attempt to avoid that problem this patch adds a nmi handler and attempts to
shoot down the other cpus by sending them non maskable interrupts.

The code then waits for 1 second or until all known cpus have stopped running
and then jumps from the running kernel that has crashed to the kernel in
reserved memory.

The kernel spin loop is used for the delay as that should behave continue to
be safe even in after a crash.

dd2a13054f [PATCH] kexec: x86: factor out apic shutdown code
Factor out the apic and smp shutdown code from machine_restart so it can be
called by in the kexec reboot path as well.

By switching to the bootstrap cpu by default on reboot I can delete/simplify
some motherboard fixups well.

8a9190853c [PATCH] kexec: reserve Bootmem fix for booting nondefault location kernel
This patch fixes a problem with reserving memory during boot up of a kernel
built for non-default location.  Currently boot memory allocator reserves
the memory required by kernel image, boot allocaotor bitmap etc.  It
assumes that kernel is loaded at 1MB (HIGH_MEMORY hard coded to 1024*1024).
 But kernel can be built for non-default locatoin, hence existing
hardcoding will lead to reserving unnecessary memory.  This patch fixes it.

3d345e3fc9 [PATCH] kexec: x86: add CONFIG_PYSICAL_START
For one kernel to report a crash another kernel has created we need
to have 2 kernels loaded simultaneously in memory.  To accomplish this
the two kernels need to built to run at different physical addresses.

This patch adds the CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START option to the x86 kernel
so we can do just that.  You need to know what you are doing and
the ramifications are before changing this value, and most users
won't care so I have made it depend on CONFIG_EMBEDDED

bzImage kernels will work and run at a different address when compiled
with this option but they will still load at 1MB.  If you need a kernel
loaded at a different address as well you need to boot a vmlinux.

ad0d75ebac [PATCH] kexec: x86: vmlinux: fix physical addresses
The vmlinux on i386 does not report the correct physical address of
the kernel.  Instead in the physical address field it currently
reports the virtual address of the kernel.

This is patch is a bug fix that corrects vmlinux to report the
proper physical addresses.

This is potentially a help for crash dump analysis tools.

This definitiely allows bootloaders that load vmlinux as a standard
ELF executable.  Bootloaders directly loading vmlinux become of
practical importance when we consider the kexec on panic case.

650927ef8a [PATCH] kexec: x86: resture apic virtual wire mode on shutdown
When coming out of apic mode attempt to set the appropriate
apic back into virtual wire mode.  This improves on previous versions
of this patch by by never setting bot the local apic and the ioapic
into veritual wire mode.

This code looks at data from the mptable to see if an ioapic has
an ExtInt input to make this decision.  A future improvement
is to figure out which apic or ioapic was in virtual wire mode
at boot time and to remember it.  That is potentially a more accurate
method, of selecting which apic to place in virutal wire mode.

cee5dab485 [PATCH] kexec: x86: i8259 shutdown: disable interrupts
From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>

This patch disables interrupt generation from the legacy pic on reboot.  Now
that there is a sys_device class it should not be called while drivers are
still using interrupts.

There is a report about this breaking ACPI power off on some systems.
http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4041
However the final comment seems to exonerate this code.  So until
I get more information I believe that was a false positive.

The problem is detect_init_APIC() is called early, before the command line
have been processed.  Therefore "lapic" (and "nolapic") have not been seen,
