Peter Chubb dc90e95f31 [IA64] Add PAL_VM_SUMMARY/PAL_MEM_ATTRIB to bootloader for SKI
This patch implements PAL_VM_SUMMARY (and PAL_MEM_ATTRIB for good
measure) and pretends that the simulated machine is a McKinley.

Some extra comments and clean-up by Tony Luck.

Steven Rostedt 69be8f1896 [PATCH] convert signal handling of NODEFER to act like other Unix boxes.
It has been reported that the way Linux handles NODEFER for signals is
not consistent with the way other Unix boxes handle it.  I've written a
program to test the behavior of how this flag affects signals and had
several reports from people who ran this on various Unix boxes,
confirming that Linux seems to be unique on the way this is handled.

The way NODEFER affects signals on other Unix boxes is as follows:

1) If NODEFER is set, other signals in sa_mask are still blocked.

2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal is
still blocked. (Note: this is the behavior of all tested but Linux _and_
NetBSD 2.0 *).

The way NODEFER affects signals on Linux:

1) If NODEFER is set, other signals are _not_ blocked regardless of
sa_mask (Even NetBSD doesn't do this).

2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal being
handled is not blocked.

The patch converts signal handling in all current Linux architectures to
the way most Unix boxes work.

Unix boxes that were tested:  DU4, AIX 5.2, Irix 6.5, NetBSD 2.0, SFU
3.5 on WinXP, AIX 5.3, Mac OSX, and of course Linux 2.6.13-rcX.

* NetBSD was the only other Unix to behave like Linux on point #2. The
main concern was brought up by point #1 which even NetBSD isn't like
Linux.  So with this patch, we leave NetBSD as the lonely one that
behaves differently here with #2.

Kenneth Chen f8220c7f15 [IA64] Delete erroneous copy_page.o in global lib-y list
copy_page.o appeared twice in arch/ia64/lib/Makefile. The
one in global lib-y is wrong where it should be just in
lib-$(CONFIG_ITANIUM).

Both copy_page.o and copy_page_mck.o are build for Itanium2
processor and the link order will pick up the low performing
copy_page function (originally written for itanium processor).
In this case, we really want the copy_page_mck.o for optimized

Venkatesh Pallipadi 4db8699bcf [IA64] Add ACPI based P-state support
Patch to support P-state transitions on ia64. This driver is based on ACPI,
and uses the ACPI processor driver interface to find out the P-state support
information for the processor. This driver plugs into generic cpufreq
infrastructure.

Once this driver is loaded successfully, ondemand/userspace governor can be
used to change the CPU frequency dynamically based on load or on request from
userspace process.

Peter Chubb 0a41e25011 [IA64] Rationalise Region Definitions
Currently, region numbers are defined in several files, with several 
names.  For example, we have REGION_KERNEL in asm/page.h and 
RGN_KERNEL in pgtable.h 
 
We also have address definitions that should depend on the 
RGN_XXX macros, but are currently just long constants. 
 
The following patch reorganises all the definitions so that they have 
the same form (RGN_XXX), are in one place, and that addresses that 
depend on RGN_XXX are derived from them. 

(This is a necessary but not sufficient patch to allow UML-like 
operation on IA64). 

Thanks to David Mosberger for catching the change I missed in mmu_context.h.

Peter Chubb a4cce10492 [IA64] Fix simulator boot (for real this time).
Thanks to Stephane, we've now worked out the real cause of the
`Linux  will not boot on simulator' problem.  Turns out it's a stack
overflow because the stack pointer wasn't being initialised properly
in boot_head.S (it was being initialised to the lowest instead of the
highest address of the stack, so the first push started to overwrite
data in the BSS).

Fix swiotlb sizing to match what the comments and the kernel

to size the swiotlb.  When specified on the boot line, the swiotlb is
made 8x bigger than requested.  When left to the default value, it's 8x
smaller than the comments indicate.  For x86_64 the multiplier would be
2x.  The patch below fixes this.  Now, what's a good default swiotlb
size?  Apparently we don't really need 64MB.

Ian Wienand 4aec0fb122 [IA64] Simulator bootloader fails with gcc 4
After building a fresh tree with gcc 4 I can't boot the simulator as
the bootloader loader dies with 

loading /home/ianw/kerntest/kerncomp//build/sim_defconfig/vmlinux...
failed to read phdr

After some investigation I believe this is do with differences between
the alignment of variables on the stack between gcc 3 and 4 and the
ski simulator.  If you trace through with the simulator you can see
that the disk_stat structure value returned from the SSC_WAIT_COMPLETION
call seems to be only half loaded.  I guess it doesn't like the alignment
of the input.

Kenji Kaneshige 1f3a6a1577 [ACPI] acpi_register_gsi() can return error
Current acpi_register_gsi() function has no way to indicate errors to its
callers even though acpi_register_gsi() can fail to register gsi because of
some reasons (out of memory, lack of interrupt vectors, incorrect BIOS, and so
on).  As a result, caller of acpi_register_gsi() cannot handle the case that
acpi_register_gsi() fails.  I think failure of acpi_register_gsi() should be
handled properly.

This series of patches changes acpi_register_gsi() to return negative value on
error, and also changes callers of acpi_register_gsi() to handle failure of
acpi_register_gsi().

This patch changes the type of return value of acpi_register_gsi() from

Ingo Molnar 6cb54819d7 [PATCH] remove sys_set_zone_reclaim()
This removes sys_set_zone_reclaim() for now.  While i'm sure Martin is
trying to solve a real problem, we must not hard-code an incomplete and
insufficient approach into a syscall, because syscalls are pretty much
for eternity.  I am quite strongly convinced that this syscall must not
hit v2.6.13 in its current form.

Firstly, the syscall lacks basic syscall design: e.g. it allows the
global setting of VM policy for unprivileged users. (!) [ Imagine an
Oracle installation and a SAP installation on the same NUMA box fighting
over the 'optimal' setting for this flag. What will they do? Will they
try to set the flag to their own preferred value every second or so? ]

Secondly, it was added based on a single datapoint from Martin:

 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-mm&m=111763597218177&w=2

where Martin characterizes the numbers the following way:

 ' Run-to-run variability for "make -j" is huge, so these numbers aren't
   terribly useful except to see that with reclaim the benchmark still
   finishes in a reasonable amount of time. '

in other words: the fundamental problem has likely not been solved, only
a tendential move into the right direction has been observed, and a
handful of numbers were picked out of a set of hugely variable results,
without showing the variability data. How much variance is there
run-to-run?

I'd really suggest to first walk the walk and see what's needed to get
stable & predictable kernel compilation numbers on that NUMA box, before
adding random syscalls to tune a particular aspect of the VM ... which
approach might not even matter once the whole picture has been analyzed
and understood!

The third, most important point is that the syscall exposes VM tuning
internals in a completely unstructured way. What sense does it make to
have a _GLOBAL_ per-node setting for 'should we go to another node for
reclaim'? If then it might make sense to do this per-app, via numalib or
so.

The change is minimalistic in that it doesnt remove the syscall and the
underlying infrastructure changes, only the user-visible changes.  We
could perhaps add a CAP_SYS_ADMIN-only sysctl for this hack, a'ka
/proc/sys/vm/swappiness, but even that looks quite counterproductive
when the generic approach is that we are trying to reduce the number of
external factors in the VM balance picture.

Keith Owens b833961bd3 [IA64] unwind.c uses wrong unat from switch_stack
unwind.c can read the wrong unat bits from switch_stack.
sw->caller_unat is the value of ar.unat when the task was blocked.
sw->ar_unat is the value of ar.unat after doing st8.spill for r4-7.
IOW, ar_unat is caller_unat with 4 bits changed.

unw_access_gr() uses sw->ar_unat for r4-7 (correct), but it also uses
sw->ar_unat for other scratch registers (incorrect).  sw->ar_unat
should only be used for r4-7, everything else should use
sw->caller_unat, unless modified by unwind info.  Using sw->ar_unat
risks picking up the 4 bits that were overwritten when r4-7 were saved.

Also this line is wrong
	unw.sw_off[unw.preg_index[UNW_REG_PFS]] = SW(AR_UNAT);
and should be
	unw.sw_off[unw.preg_index[UNW_REG_PFS]] = SW(AR_PFS);

Christoph Lameter 7c2a6c62c0 [IA64] Altix pcibus_to_node implementation
The Altix subarch does not provide node information via ACPI. Instead hooks
are used to fixup pci structures. This patch determines the nodes for Altix
PCI busses.

Remote Bridges:
---------------
Altix supports remote I/O nodes without memory or processors but with bridges.
The TIOCA type of bridge is an AGP bridge and the PROM provides information
about the closest node. That information will be returned by pcibus_to_node.

The TIOCP remote bridge type is a PCI bridge but the PROM does not provide a
closest node id. pcibus_to_node will return -1 for devices on those bridges
meaning that device control structures may be allocated on any node.

Safeguard:
----------
Should the fixups result in invalid node information for a pci controller then
a warning will be printed and pcibus_to_node will return -1.


This patch also fixes the "FIXME" in sn_dma_alloc_coherent. This means that
dma_alloc_coherent will now use alloc_pages_node to allocate memory local to
the node that the PCI device is connected to.

Kenji Kaneshige 3b5cc09033 [IA64] assign_irq_vector() should not panic
Current assign_irq_vector() will panic if interrupt vectors is running
out. But I think how to handle the case of lack of interrupt vectors
should be handled by the caller of this function. For example, some
PCI devices can raise the interrupt signal via both MSI and I/O
APIC. So even if the driver for these device fails to allocate a
vector for MSI, the driver still has a chance to use I/O APIC based
interrupt. But currently there is no chance for these driver to use
I/O APIC based interrupt because kernel will panic when
assign_irq_vector() fails to allocate interrupt vector.

The following patch changes assign_irq_vector() for ia64 to return
-ENOSPC on error instead of panic (as i386 and x86_64 versions do).

bob.picco 564601a5d1 [IA64] memory-less-nodes repost
I reworked how nodes with only CPUs are treated.  The patch below seems
simpler to me and has eliminated the complicated routine
reassign_cpu_only_nodes.  There isn't any longer the requirement
to modify ACPI NUMA information which was in large part the
complexity introduced in reassign_cpu_only_nodes. 

This patch will produce a different number of nodes. For example,
reassign_cpu_only_nodes would reduce two CPUonly nodes and one memory node
configuration to one memory+CPUs node configuration.  This patch
doesn't change the number of nodes which means the user will see three.  Two
nodes without memory and one node with all the memory.

While doing this patch, I noticed that early_nr_phys_cpus_node isn't serving
any useful purpose.  It is called once in find_pernode_space but the value
isn't used to computer pernode space.
