Ingo Molnar 0437e109e1 sched: zap the migration init / cache-hot balancing code
the SMP load-balancer uses the boot-time migration-cost estimation
code to attempt to improve the quality of balancing. The reason for
this code is that the discrete priority queues do not preserve
the order of scheduling accurately, so the load-balancer skips
tasks that were running on a CPU 'recently'.

this code is fundamental fragile: the boot-time migration cost detector
doesnt really work on systems that had large L3 caches, it caused boot
delays on large systems and the whole cache-hot concept made the
balancing code pretty undeterministic as well.

(and hey, i wrote most of it, so i can say it out loud that it sucks ;-)

under CFS the same purpose of cache affinity can be achieved without
any special cache-hot special-case: tasks are sorted in the 'timeline'
tree and the SMP balancer picks tasks from the left side of the
tree, thus the most cache-cold task is balanced automatically.

Jes Sorensen 1ee27a4eed [IA64] Make SN2 PCI code use ioremap rather than manually mangle the address
This one changes the SN2 specific PCI drivers to use ioremap() for
obtaining the real address to access for the PCI registers instead of
manually calculating them with __IA64_UNCACHED_OFFSET.

The patch should have no real change when running on a normal Linux
kernel, but when running as a paravirtualized it is needed.

Keith Owens 66fa9b107e [IA64] Correct unwind validation code
Both rp_loc and pfs_loc can be in the register stack area _or_ they can
be in the memory stack area, the latter occurs when a struct pt_regs is
pushed.  Correct the validation check on these fields to check for both
stack areas.  Not allowing for memory stack locations means no
backtrace past ia64_leave_kernel, or any other code that uses
PT_REGS_UNWIND_INFO.

Tony Luck d57c4a3892 [IA64] acpi_get_sysname() should be __init
Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:acpi_find_rsdp
 (between 'acpi_get_sysname' and 'acpi_request_vector')

acpi_get_sysname() needs to call the __init function acpi_find_rsdp, but it
doesn't have the __init attribute itself, hence the warning. Luckily it is
only called from machvec_init() which has __init attribute, so the fix
is to define acpi_get_sysname() as __init too.

Unwinding a running task has proven problematic.

In one instance, the running task was attempting to unwind itself and
received an interrupt between when get_wchan allocated local variables on

Jay Lan 311f594dec [IA64] kdump on INIT needs multi-nodes sync-up (v.2)
The current implementation of kdump on INIT events would enter
kdump processing on DIE_INIT_MONARCH_ENTER and DIE_INIT_SLAVE_ENTER
events. Thus, the monarch cpu would go ahead and boot up the kdump

On SN shub2 systems, this out-of-sync situation causes some slave
cpus on different nodes to enter POD.

This patch moves kdump entry points to DIE_INIT_MONARCH_LEAVE and
DIE_INIT_SLAVE_LEAVE. It also sets kdump_in_progress variable in
the DIE_INIT_MONARCH_PROCESS event to not dump all active stack
traces to the console in the case of kdump.

I have tested this patch on an SN machine and a HP RX2600.

Anil S Keshavamurthy cdc7dbdfe6 [IA64] fix Kprobes reentrancy
In case of reentrance i.e when a probe handler calls a functions which
inturn has a probe, we save a previous kprobe information and just single
step the reentrant probe without calling the actual probe handler.  During
this reentracy period, if an interrupt occurs and if probe happens to
trigger in the inturrupt path, then we were corrupting the previous kprobe(
as we were overriding the previous kprobe info) info their by crashing the
system.  This patch fixes this issues by having a an array of previous
kprobe info struct(with the array size of 2).

This similar technique is not needed on i386 and x86_64 because by default
interrupts are turn off in the break/int3 exception handler.

When auditing syscalls that send signals, log the pid and security

adding a counter for signal-related rules, and avoiding allocating an
aux struct unless we have more than one target process. For process
groups, collect pid/context data in blocks of 16. Move the

attempts where permission is denied.

Roman Zippel f7e4217b00 rename thread_info to stack
This finally renames the thread_info field in task structure to stack, so that
the assumptions about this field are gone and archs have more freedom about
placing the thread_info structure.

Nonbroken archs which have a proper thread pointer can do the access to both
current thread and task structure via a single pointer.

It'll allow for a few more cleanups of the fork code, from which e.g.  ia64

Rafael J. Wysocki 8bb7844286 Add suspend-related notifications for CPU hotplug
Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been
frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need
special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware
subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events
related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress.  This
patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during
suspend and resume transitions.  It also changes all of the
CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration
(for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal"
ones).

Kirill Korotaev 690def2141 [IA64] unwind did not work for processes born with CLONE_STOPPED
Minor problem for mainstream. Big problem for checkpoint/restore,
because all the stopped/traced processes are born in this state,
hence they cannot be checkpointed again due to failing unwind.

The problem was identified as assumption in kernel unwind library
that top level frame is different of syscall frame. It is the case
unless process was born with CLONE_STOPPED.

Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer 66761522a7 [IA64] fix stack alignment for ia32 signal handlers
This fixes the setup of the alignment of the signal frame, so that all
signal handlers are run with a properly aligned stack frame.

The current code "over-aligns" the stack pointer so that the stack frame
is effectively always mis-aligned by 4 bytes.  But what we really want
is that on function entry ((sp + 4) & 15) == 0, which matches what would
happen if the stack were aligned before a "call" instruction.

i386 and x86_64 are already fixed by d347f37227

Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli bf8f6e5b3e Kprobes: The ON/OFF knob thru debugfs
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.

Christoph Hellwig 4c4308cb93 kprobes: kretprobes simplifications
- consolidate duplicate code in all arch_prepare_kretprobe instances
   into common code
 - replace various odd helpers that use hlist_for_each_entry to get
   the first elemenet of a list with either a hlist_for_each_entry_save
   or an opencoded access to the first element in the caller
 - inline add_rp_inst into it's only remaining caller
 - use kretprobe_inst_table_head instead of opencoding it
