Dave Jones 0213df7431 [PATCH] cpufreq: fix pending powernow timer stuck condition
AMD recently discovered that on some hardware, there is a race condition
possible when a C-state change request goes onto the bus at the same
time as a P-state change request.

Both requests happen, but the southbridge hardware only acknowledges the
C-state change.  The PowerNow! driver is then stuck in a loop, waiting
for the P-state change acknowledgement.  The driver eventually times
out, but can no longer perform P-state changes.

It turns out the solution is to resend the P-state change, which the
southbridge will acknowledge normally.

Thanks to Johannes Winkelmann for reporting this and testing the fix.

Need to use long long, not long when RMWing a MSR. I think
it's harmless right now, but still should be better fixed
if AMD adds any bits in the upper 32bit of HWCR.

Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer d347f37227 [PATCH] i386: fix stack alignment for 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.

I need the following patch to compile -git8 here, otherwise these

Linus Torvalds 1619cca292 Partially revert "Fix time going twice as fast problem on ATI Xpress chipsets"
Commit 66759a01ad introduced the fix for
time ticking too fast on some boards by disabling one of the doubly
connected timer pins on ATI boards.

However, it ends up being _much_ too broad a brush, and that just makes
some other ATI boards not work at all since they now have no timer
source.

So disable the automatic ATI southbridge detection, and just rely on
people who see this problem disabling it by hand with the option
"disable_timer_pin_1" on the kernel command line.

Maybe somebody can figure out the proper tests at a later date.

Masked FPU exceptions should obviously not happen in the first place,
but if they do, ignoring them seems to be the right thing to do.

Although there is no documentation available for Cyrix MII, I did find

exception under certain conditions" which seems to indicate that this
can happen.

That would also explain the behaviour Ondrej Zary reported on the MII.

Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso a7d0c21033 [PATCH] i386 / uml: add dwarf sections to static link script
Inside the linker script, insert the code for DWARF debug info sections. This
may help GDB'ing a Uml binary. Actually, it seems that ld is able to guess
what I added correctly, but normal linker scripts include this section so it
should be correct anyway adding it.

On request by Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>, I've added it to
asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.s. I've also moved there the stabs debug section,
used the new macro in i386 linker script and added DWARF debug section to
that.

In the truth, I've not been able to verify the difference in GDB behaviour
after this change (I've seen large improvements with another patch). This
may depend on my binutils version, older one may have worse defaults.

However, this section is present in normal linker script, so add it at
least for the sake of cleanness.

Daniel Ritz f0eca9626c [PATCH] Update PCI IOMEM allocation start
This fixes the problem with "Averatec 6240 pcmcia_socket0: unable to
apply power", which was due to the CardBus IOMEM register region being
allocated at an address that was actually inside the RAM window that had
been reserved for video frame-buffers in an UMA setup.

The BIOS _should_ have marked that region reserved in the e820 memory
descriptor tables, but did not.

It is fixed by rounding up the default starting address of PCI memory
allocations, so that we leave a bigger gap after the final known memory
location.  The amount of rounding depends on how big the unused memory
gap is that we can allocate IOMEM from.

Based on example code by Linus.

Andrea Arcangeli 4c7fc7220f [PATCH] i386: seccomp fix for auditing/ptrace
This is the same issue as ppc64 before, when returning to userland we
shouldn't re-compute the seccomp check or the task could be killed during

This was harmless from a security standpoint, but some i686 users reported
failures with auditing enabled system wide (some distro surprisingly makes
it the default) and I reproduced it too by keeping the whole workload under
strace -f.

Jim Keniston bce0649417 [PATCH] kprobes: fix handling of simultaneous probe hit/unregister
This patch fixes a bug in kprobes's handling of a corner case on i386 and
x86_64.  On an SMP system, if one CPU unregisters a kprobe just after
another CPU hits that probepoint, kprobe_handler() on the latter CPU sees
that the kprobe has been unregistered, and attempts to let the CPU continue
as if the probepoint hadn't been hit.  The bug is that on i386 and x86_64,
we were neglecting to set the IP back to the beginning of the probed
instruction.  This could cause an oops or crash.

This bug doesn't exist on ppc64 and ia64, where a breakpoint instruction
leaves the IP pointing to the beginning of the instruction.  I don't know
about sparc64.  (Dave, could you please advise?)

This fix has been tested on i386 and x86_64 SMP systems.  To reproduce the
problem, set one CPU to work registering and unregistering a kprobe
repeatedly, and another CPU pounding the probepoint in a tight loop.

Robert Love 640e803376 [PATCH] fix: dmi_check_system
Background:

	1) dmi_check_system() returns the count of the number of
	   matches.  Zero thus means no matches.
	2) A match callback can return nonzero to stop the match
	   checking.

Bug: The count is incremented after we check for the nonzero return value,
so it does not reflect the actual count.  We could say this is intended,
for some dumb reason, except that it means that a match on the first check
returns zero--no matches--if the callback returns nonzero.

Attached patch implements the count before calling the callback and thus
before potentially short-circuiting.

This patch cleans up a commonly repeated set of changes to the NTP state
variables by adding two helper inline functions:

ntp_clear(): Clears the ntp state variables

ntp_synced(): Returns 1 if the system is synced with a time server.

This was compile tested for alpha, arm, i386, x86-64, ppc64, s390, sparc,
sparc64.

David Gibson 96d0821cac [PATCH] Fix function/macro name collision on i386 oprofile
The i386 OProfile code has a function named nmi_exit(), which collides with
the nmi_exit() macro in linux/hardirq.h.  At the moment, we get away with
it, because hardirq.h isn't included in the oprofile code.  I hit this as a
bug when working with a patch which (indirectly) adds a #include of
hardirq.h to oprofile.

Regardless, the name collision is probably not a good idea, so this patch
fixes it, renaming the oprofile function to op_nmi_exit().  It also renames
the nmi_init() and nmi_timer_init() functions similarly, for consistency.
