When PTRACE_SYSCALL was used and then PTRACE_DETACH is used, the
TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE flag is left set on the formerly-traced task. This
means that when a new tracer comes along and does PTRACE_ATTACH, it's
possible he gets a syscall tracing stop even though he's never used
PTRACE_SYSCALL. This happens if the task was in the middle of a system
call when the second PTRACE_ATTACH was done. The symptom is an
unexpected SIGTRAP when the tracer thinks that only SIGSTOP should have
been provoked by his ptrace calls so far.
A few machines already fixed this in ptrace_disable (i386, ia64, m68k).
But all other machines do not, and still have this bug. On x86_64, this
constitutes a regression in IA32 compatibility support.
Since all machines now use TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE for this, I put the
clearing of TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE in the generic ptrace_detach code rather
than adding it to every other machine's ptrace_disable.

This patch cleans up the `enable early console for SKI' patch
(471e7a4484), and
1. potentially allows the gensparse_defconfig to work again.
(there are other problems running a generic kernel on Ski)
2. fixes the `console registered twice' problem.
3. Cleans up the code by moving the `extern hpsim_cons' declaration to
a new asm/hpsim.h file.

The core cpufreq code doesn't appear to understand returning -EAGAIN

4294967285 kHz (ie. (unsigned)-11). The other drivers appear to return
0 for a failure, and doing so gives me the max frequency from

While sending interrupts to a cpu to repeatedly wake a thread, on occasion
that thread will take a full timer tick cycle (4002 usec in my case)
to wakeup.
The problem concerns a race condition in the code around the safe_halt()
call in the default_idle() routine. Setting 'nohalt' on the kernel
command line causes the long wakeups to disappear.
void
default_idle (void)
{
local_irq_enable();
while (!need_resched()) {
--> if (can_do_pal_halt)
--> safe_halt();
else
A timer tick could arrive between the check for !need_resched and the
actual call to safe_halt() (which does a pal call to PAL_HALT_LIGHT).
By the time the timer tick completes, a thread that might now need to run
could get held up for as long as a timer tick waiting for the halted cpu.
I'm proposing that we disable irq's and check need_resched again before
calling safe_halt(). Does anyone see any problem with this approach?

Without this patch it is possible that the ITC clock becomes selected as

I did it on purpose (and gave the warning a miss...) and I consider
iosapic_free_rte() is no longer needed.
I decided to remain iosapic_rte_info to keep gsi-to-irq binding
after device disable. Indeed it needs some extra memory, but it
is only "sizeof(iosapic_rte_info) * <the number of removed devices>"
bytes and has no memory leak becasue re-enabled devices use the
iosapic_rte_info which they used before disabling.

per cpu data section contains two types of data. One set which is
exclusively accessed by the local cpu and the other set which is per cpu,
but also shared by remote cpus. In the current kernel, these two sets are
not clearely separated out. This can potentially cause the same data
cacheline shared between the two sets of data, which will result in
unnecessary bouncing of the cacheline between cpus.
One way to fix the problem is to cacheline align the remotely accessed per
cpu data, both at the beginning and at the end. Because of the padding at
both ends, this will likely cause some memory wastage and also the
interface to achieve this is not clean.
This patch:
Moves the remotely accessed per cpu data (which is currently marked
as ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp) into a different section, where all the data
elements are cacheline aligned. And as such, this differentiates the local
only data and remotely accessed data cleanly.

This patch adds an arch hook, arch_deref_entry_point() (I don't like it
either) which takes the void * in a struct jprobe, and gives back the text
address that it represents.
We can then use that in register_jprobe() to check that the entry point we're

When "kernelcore" boot option is specified, kernel can't boot up on ia64

in an architecture-independent manner.
This patch uses common code to handle the kernelcore= parameter. It is
