The PFM_LOAD_CONTEXT may fail silently and cause a session
to remain reserved even though it should not. This can happen
when the commands succeeds in reserving the session but fails
when it actually tries to attach to the load_pid. In that case,
the command has failed but will return 0. More importantly,
the session will remain reserved. This patch fixes the problem.

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.

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);

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.

pcibus_to_node provides a way for the Linux kernel to identify to which

for devices can then be made on the node where the pci bus is located
to allow local access during interrupt and other device manipulation.

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).

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.
