Masami Hiramatsu 5a4ccaf37f kprobes: check CONFIG_FREEZER instead of CONFIG_PM
Check CONFIG_FREEZER instead of CONFIG_PM because kprobe booster
depends on freeze_processes() and thaw_processes() when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y.

This fixes a linkage error which occurs when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y, CONFIG_PM=y
and CONFIG_FREEZER=n.

Doug Chapman 88fc241f54 [IA64] dump stack on kernel unaligned warnings
Often the cause of kernel unaligned access warnings is not
obvious from just the ip displayed in the warning.  This adds
the option via proc to dump the stack in addition to the warning.
The default is off (just display the 1 line warning).  To enable
the stack to be shown: echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/unaligned-dump-stack

Remove __attribute__((weak)) from common code sys_pipe implemantation.
IA64, ALPHA, SUPERH (32bit) and SPARC (32bit) have own implemantations
with the same name. Just rename them.
For sys_pipe2 there is no architecture specific implementation.

Zhao Yakui 237889bf0a ACPI : Use RSDT instead of XSDT by adding boot option of "acpi=rsdt"
On some boxes there exist both RSDT and XSDT table. But unfortunately
sometimes there exists the following error when XSDT table is used:
   a. 32/64X address mismatch
   b. The 32/64X FACS address mismatch

   In such case the boot option of "acpi=rsdt" is provided so that
RSDT is tried instead of XSDT table when the system can't work well.

107:	cpu_set(cpu_logical_id(hwid), mask);
110:                 irq_desc[irq].affinity = mask;

	... replaced with a simple "cpumask_of(cpu_logical_id(hwid))".

161:			new_cpu = any_online_cpu(cpu_online_map);
194:		time_keeper_id = first_cpu(cpu_online_map);

	... replaced with cpu_online_mask refs.

Martin Schwidefsky 79741dd357 [PATCH] idle cputime accounting
The cpu time spent by the idle process actually doing something is
currently accounted as idle time. This is plain wrong, the architectures
that support VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=y can do better: distinguish between the
time spent doing nothing and the time spent by idle doing work. The first
is accounted with account_idle_time and the second with account_system_time.
The architectures that use the account_xxx_time interface directly and not
the account_xxx_ticks interface now need to do the check for the idle
process in their arch code. In particular to improve the system vs true
idle time accounting the arch code needs to measure the true idle time
instead of just testing for the idle process.
To improve the tick based accounting as well we would need an architecture
primitive that can tell us if the pt_regs of the interrupted context
points to the magic instruction that halts the cpu.

In addition idle time is no more added to the stime of the idle process.
This field now contains the system time of the idle process as it should
be. On systems without VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING this will always be zero as
every tick that occurs while idle is running will be accounted as idle
time.

This patch contains the necessary common code changes to be able to
distinguish idle system time and true idle time. The architectures with
support for VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING need some changes to exploit this.

Martin Schwidefsky 457533a7d3 [PATCH] fix scaled & unscaled cputime accounting
The utimescaled / stimescaled fields in the task structure and the
global cpustat should be set on all architectures. On s390 the calls
to account_user_time_scaled and account_system_time_scaled never have
been added. In addition system time that is accounted as guest time
to the user time of a process is accounted to the scaled system time
instead of the scaled user time.
To fix the bugs and to prevent future forgetfulness this patch merges
account_system_time_scaled into account_system_time and
account_user_time_scaled into account_user_time.

Impact: change existing irq_chip API

Not much point with gentle transition here: the struct irq_chip's
setaffinity method signature needs to change.

Fortunately, not widely used code, but hits a few architectures.

Note: In irq_select_affinity() I save a temporary in by mangling
irq_desc[irq].affinity directly.  Ingo, does this break anything?

Rusty Russell 98a79d6a50 cpumask: centralize cpu_online_map and cpu_possible_map
Impact: cleanup

Each SMP arch defines these themselves.  Move them to a central
location.

Twists:
1) Some archs (m32, parisc, s390) set possible_map to all 1, so we add a
   CONFIG_INIT_ALL_POSSIBLE for this rather than break them.

2) mips and sparc32 '#define cpu_possible_map phys_cpu_present_map'.
   Those archs simply have phys_cpu_present_map replaced everywhere.

3) Alpha defined cpu_possible_map to cpu_present_map; this is tricky
   so I just manipulate them both in sync.

4) IA64, cris and m32r have gratuitous 'extern cpumask_t cpu_possible_map'
   declarations.

Tony Luck b704882e70 [IA64] Rationalize kernel mode alignment checking
Itanium processors can handle some misaligned data accesses. They
also provide a mode where all such accesses are forced to trap. The
kernel was schizophrenic about use of this mode:

* Base kernel code ran in permissive mode where the only traps
  generated were from those cases that the h/w could not handle.
* Interrupt, syscall and trap code ran in strict mode where all
  unaligned accesses caused traps to the 0x5a00 unaligned reference
  vector.

Use strict alignment checking throughout the kernel, but make
sure that we continue to let user mode use more relaxed mode
as the default.

This means that it will be possible for the credentials of a task to be

David Howells ef81ee9855 CRED: Wrap task credential accesses in the IA64 arch
Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from
the task_struct during the introduction of COW creds.

Change most current->(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id().

Change some task->e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id().  In some places it makes more
sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be
addressed by later patches.

Jay Lan 17c1f07ed7 [IA64] Reserve elfcorehdr memory in CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP
IA64 kdump kernel failed to initialize /proc/vmcore in 2.6.28-rc2.
A bug was introduced in this patch commit:

  d9a9855d0b
  always reserve elfcore header memory in crash kernel

The problem was that the call to reserve_elfcorehdr() should be placed
in CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP rather than in CONFIG_CRASH_KERNEL, which does
not exist.

Doug Chapman 62ee0540f5 [IA64] fix boot panic caused by offline CPUs
This fixes a regression introduced by 2c6e6db41f
"Minimize per_cpu reservations."  That patch incorrectly used information about
what CPUs are possible that was not yet initialized by ACPI.  The end result
was that per_cpu structures for offline CPUs were not initialized causing a
NULL pointer reference.

Since we cannot do the full acpi_boot_init() call any earlier, the simplest
fix is to just parse the MADT for SAPIC entries early to find the CPU
info.  This should also allow for some cleanup of the code added by the
"Minimize per_cpu reservations".  This patch just fixes the regressions, the
cleanup will come in a later patch.

Al Viro 233e70f422 saner FASYNC handling on file close
As it is, all instances of ->release() for files that have ->fasync()
need to remember to evict file from fasync lists; forgetting that
creates a hole and we actually have a bunch that *does* forget.

So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in
file->f_flags and call ->fasync() there if it's been set.  And lose that
crap in ->release() instances - leaving it there is still valid, but we
don't have to bother anymore.

This patch partially reverts a patch to add IOMMU support to ia64.  The
forbid_dac variable was incorrectly moved to quirks.c, which isn't built
when PCI is disabled.

Simon Horman d9a9855d0b always reserve elfcore header memory in crash kernel
elfcore header memory needs to be reserved in a crash kernel.  This means
that the relevant code should be protected by CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP rather
than CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE.

Simon Horman 85a0ee342e kdump: add is_vmcore_usable() and vmcore_unusable()
The usage of elfcorehdr_addr has changed recently such that being set to
ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX is used by is_kdump_kernel() to indicate if the code is
executing in a kernel executed as a crash kernel.

However, arch/ia64/kernel/setup.c:reserve_elfcorehdr will rest
elfcorehdr_addr to ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX on error, which means any subsequent
calls to is_kdump_kernel() will return 0, even though they should return
1.

Ok, at this point in time there are no subsequent calls, but I think its
fair to say that there is ample scope for error or at the very least
confusion.

This patch add an extra state, ELFCORE_ADDR_ERR, which indicates that
elfcorehdr_addr was passed on the command line, and thus execution is
taking place in a crashdump kernel, but vmcore can't be used for some
reason.  This is tested for using is_vmcore_usable() and set using
vmcore_unusable().  A subsequent patch makes use of this new code.

To summarise, the states that elfcorehdr_addr can now be in are as follows:

ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX: not a crashdump kernel
ELFCORE_ADDR_ERR: crashdump kernel but vmcore is unusable
any other value:  crash dump kernel and vmcore is usable

Vivek Goyal 57cac4d188 kdump: make elfcorehdr_addr independent of CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE
o elfcorehdr_addr is used by not only the code under CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE
  but also by the code which is not inside CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE.  For
  example, is_kdump_kernel() is used by powerpc code to determine if
  kernel is booting after a panic then use previous kernel's TCE table.
  So even if CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE is not set in second kernel, one should be
  able to correctly determine that we are booting after a panic and setup
  calgary iommu accordingly.

o So remove the assumption that elfcorehdr_addr is under
  CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE.

o Move definition of elfcorehdr_addr to arch dependent crash files.
  (Unfortunately crash dump does not have an arch independent file
  otherwise that would have been the best place).

o kexec.c is not the right place as one can Have CRASH_DUMP enabled in
  second kernel without KEXEC being enabled.

o I don't see sh setup code parsing the command line for
  elfcorehdr_addr.  I am wondering how does vmcore interface work on sh.
  Anyway, I am atleast defining elfcoredhr_addr so that compilation is not
  broken on sh.

Fenghua Yu 62fdd7678a [IA64] Add Variable Page Size and IA64 Support in Intel IOMMU
The patch contains Intel IOMMU IA64 specific code. It defines new
machvec dig_vtd, hooks for IOMMU, DMAR table detection, cache line flush
function, etc.

For a generic kernel with CONFIG_DMAR=y, if Intel IOMMU is detected,
dig_vtd is used for machinve vector. Otherwise, kernel falls back to
dig machine vector. Kernel parameter "machvec=dig" or "intel_iommu=off"
can be used to force kernel to boot dig machine vector.
