This series extena and standardises local_t operations on each architecture,
allowing a rich set of atomic operations to be done on per-cpu data with
minimal performance impact. On architectures where there seems to be no
difference between the SMP and UP operation (same memory barriers, same
LOCKing), local.h simply includes asm-generic/local.h, which removes
duplicated code from the current kernel tree.

atomic_add_unless as inline. Remove system.h atomic.h circular dependency.
I agree (with Andi Kleen) this typeof is not needed and more error
prone. All the original atomic.h code that uses cmpxchg (which includes
the atomic_add_unless) uses defines instead of inline functions,
probably to circumvent a circular dependency between system.h and
atomic.h on powerpc (which my patch addresses). Therefore, it makes
sense to use inline functions that will provide type checking.
atomic_add_unless as inline. Remove system.h atomic.h circular dependency.
Digging into the FRV architecture shows me that it is also affected by
such a circular dependency. Here is the diff applying this against the
rest of my atomic.h patches.
It applies over the atomic.h standardization patches.

Remove an explicit cast to an integer type for the result returned by cmpxchg.
It is not per se a problem on the i386 architecture, because sizeof(int) ==
sizeof(long), but whenever this code is cut'n'pasted to a accept passing an
atomic64_t value as parameter to cmpxchg, xchg and add_unless, having 64 bits
inputs casted to 32 bits.

This patch provides a debugfs knob to turn kprobes on/off
o A new file /debug/kprobes/enabled indicates if kprobes is enabled or
not (default enabled)
o Echoing 0 to this file will disarm all installed probes
o Any new probe registration when disabled will register the probe but
not arm it. A message will be printed out in such a case.
o When a value 1 is echoed to the file, all probes (including ones
registered in the intervening period) will be enabled
o Unregistration will happen irrespective of whether probes are globally
enabled or not.
o Update Documentation/kprobes.txt to reflect these changes. While there
also update the doc to make it current.
We are also looking at providing sysrq key support to tie to the disabling
feature provided by this patch.

I finally got around to testing the updated wakeup event hooks for rtc-cmos,
and they follow in two patches:
- Interface update ... when a simple enable_irq_wake() doesn't suffice,
the platform data can hold suspend/resume callback hooks.
- ACPI implementation ... provides callback hooks to do ACPI magic, and
eliminate the legacy /proc/acpi/alarm file.
The interface update could go into 2.6.21, but that's not essential; they
will be NOPs on most PCs, without the ACPI stuff.
I suspect the ACPI folk may have opinions about how to merge that second
patch, and how to obsolete that legacy procfs file. I'd like to see that
merge into 2.6.22 if possible...
As for how to kick it in ... two ways:
- The appended "rtcwake" program; updated since the last time it was
posted, it deals much better with timezones and DST.
- Write the /sys/class/rtc/.../wakealarm file, then go to sleep.
For some reason RTC wake from "swsusp" stopped working on a system where
it previously worked; the alarm setting appears to get clobbered. But
on the bright side, RTC wake from "standby" worked on a system that had
never been able to resume from that state before ... IDEACPI is my guess
as to why it finally started to work. It's the old "two steps forward,
one step back" dance, I guess.

This patch:
Make rtc-cmos do the relevant magic so this RTC can wake the system from a
sleep state. That magic comes in two basic flavors:
- Straightforward: enable_irq_wake(), the way it'd work on most SOC chips;
or generally with system sleep states which don't disable core IRQ logic.
- Roundabout, using non-IRQ platform hooks. This is needed with ACPI and
one almost-clone chip which uses a special wakeup-only alarm. (That's
the RTC used on Footbridge boards, FWIW, which don't do PM in Linux.)
A separate patch implements those hooks for ACPI platforms, so that rtc_cmos
can issue system wakeup events (and its sysfs "wakealarm" attribute works on
at least some systems).

This simplifies the /dev support by removing a superfluous class_device (the
/sys/class/rtc-dev stuff) and the class_interface that hooks it into the rtc
core. Accordingly, if it's configured then /dev support is now part of the
RTC core, and is never a separate module.
It's another step towards being able to remove "struct class_device".

Implement utimensat(2) which is an extension to futimesat(2) in that it
a) supports nano-second resolution for the timestamps
b) allows to selectively ignore the atime/mtime value
c) allows to selectively use the current time for either atime or mtime
d) supports changing the atime/mtime of a symlink itself along the lines
of the BSD lutimes(3) functions
For this change the internally used do_utimes() functions was changed to
accept a timespec time value and an additional flags parameter.
Additionally the sys_utime function was changed to match compat_sys_utime
which already use do_utimes instead of duplicating the work.
Also, the completely missing futimensat() functionality is added. We have
such a function in glibc but we have to resort to using /proc/self/fd/* which
not everybody likes (chroot etc).

I noticed expensive divides done in try_to_wakeup() and
find_busiest_group() on a bi dual core Opteron machine (total of 4 cores),
moderatly loaded (15.000 context switch per second)
oprofile numbers :
CPU: AMD64 processors, speed 2600.05 MHz (estimated)
Counted CPU_CLK_UNHALTED events (Cycles outside of halt state) with a unit
mask of 0x00 (No unit mask) count 50000
samples % symbol name
...
613914 1.0498 try_to_wake_up
834 0.0013 :ffffffff80227ae1: div %rcx
77513 0.1191 :ffffffff80227ae4: mov %rax,%r11
608893 1.0413 find_busiest_group
1841 0.0031 :ffffffff802260bf: div %rdi
140109 0.2394 :ffffffff802260c2: test %sil,%sil
Some of these divides can use the reciprocal divides we introduced some
time ago (currently used in slab AFAIK)
We can assume a load will fit in a 32bits number, because with a
SCHED_LOAD_SCALE=128 value, its still a theorical limit of 33554432
When/if we reach this limit one day, probably cpus will have a fast
hardware divide and we can zap the reciprocal divide trick.
Ingo suggested to rename cpu_power to __cpu_power to make clear it should
not be modified without changing its reciprocal value too.
I did not convert the divide in cpu_avg_load_per_task(), because tracking
nr_running changes may be not worth it ? We could use a static table of 32
reciprocal values but it would add a conditional branch and table lookup.

Fix the process idle load balancing in the presence of dynticks. cpus for
which ticks are stopped will sleep till the next event wakes it up.
Potentially these sleeps can be for large durations and during which today,
there is no periodic idle load balancing being done.
This patch nominates an owner among the idle cpus, which does the idle load
balancing on behalf of the other idle cpus. And once all the cpus are
completely idle, then we can stop this idle load balancing too. Checks added
in fast path are minimized. Whenever there are busy cpus in the system, there
will be an owner(idle cpu) doing the system wide idle load balancing.
Open items:
1. Intelligent owner selection (like an idle core in a busy package).
2. Merge with rcu's nohz_cpu_mask?

Here is a driver for the Alchemy au1550 PSC (Programmable Serial
Controller) in SPI master mode.
It supports dma transfers using the Alchemy descriptor based dma controller
for 4-8 bits per word SPI transfers. For 9-24 bits per word transfers, pio
irq based mode is used to avoid setup of dma channels from scratch on each
number of bits per word change.
Tested with au1550; this may also work on other MIPS Alchemy cpus, like
au1200/au1210/au1250. Used extensively with SD card connected via SPI;
this handles 8.1MHz SPI clock transfers using dma without any problem (the
highest SPI clock freq possible with au1550 running on 324MHz).
The driver supports sharing of SPI bus by multiple devices. All features
of Alchemy SPI mode are supported (all SPI modes, msb/lsb first, bits per
word in 4-24 range).
As the SPI clock of the controller depends on main input clock that shall
be configured externally, platform data structure for au1550 SPI controller
driver contains mainclk_hz attribute to define the input clock rate. From
this value, dividers of the controller for SPI clock are set up for
required frequency.

Add a filesystem API for <linux/spi/spi.h> stack. The initial version of
this interface is purely synchronous.
dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net:
Cleaned up, bugfixed; much simplified; added preliminary documentation.
Works with mdev given CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED; and presumably udev.
Updated SPI_IOC_MESSAGE ioctl to full spi_message semantics, supporting
groups of one or more transfers (each of which may be full duplex if
desired).
This is marked as EXPERIMENTAL with an explicit disclaimer that the API
(notably the ioctls) is subject to change.

A patch that stores inode flags such as S_IMMUTABLE, S_APPEND, etc. from
i_flags to EXT3_I(inode)->i_flags when inode is written to disk. The same
thing is done on GETFLAGS ioctl.
Quota code changes these flags on quota files (to make it harder for
sysadmin to screw himself) and these changes were not correctly propagated
into the filesystem (especially, lsattr did not show them and users were
wondering...).
Propagate flags such as S_APPEND, S_IMMUTABLE, etc. from i_flags into
ext3-specific i_flags. Hence, when someone sets these flags via a
different interface than ioctl, they are stored correctly.

There are many places in the kernel where the construction like
foo = list_entry(head->next, struct foo_struct, list);
are used.
The code might look more descriptive and neat if using the macro
list_first_entry(head, type, member) \
list_entry((head)->next, type, member)
Here is the macro itself and the examples of its usage in the generic code.
If it will turn out to be useful, I can prepare the set of patches to
inject in into arch-specific code, drivers, networking, etc.

We've had various reports of some legacy "probe the hardware" style
platform drivers having nasty problems with hotplug support.
The core issue is that those legacy drivers don't fully conform to the
driver model. They assume a role that should be the responsibility of
infrastructure code: creating device nodes.
The "modprobe" step in hotplugging relies on drivers to have split those
roles into different modules. The lack of this split causes the problems.
When a driver creates nodes for devices that don't exist (sending a hotplug
event), then exits (aborting one modprobe) before the "modprobe $MODALIAS"
step completes (by failing, since it's in the middle of a modprobe), the
result can be an endless loop of modprobe invocations ... badness.
This fix uses the newish per-device flag controlling issuance of "add"
events. (A previous version of this patch used a per-device "driver can
hotplug" flag, which only scrubbed $MODALIAS from the environment rather
than suppressing the entire hotplug event.) It also shrinks that flag to
one bit, saving a word in "struct device".
So the net of this patch is removing some nasty failures with legacy
drivers, while retaining hotplug capability for the majority of platform
drivers.

We noticed a drop in n/w performance due to the irq_desc being cacheline
aligned rather than internode aligned. We see 50% of expected performance
when two e1000 nics local to two different nodes have consecutive irq
descriptors allocated, due to false sharing.
Note that this patch does away with cacheline padding for the UP case, as
it does not seem useful for UP configurations.
