Miao Xie cb4ad1ffc7 sched: fair-group: fix a Div0 error of the fair group scheduler
When I echoed 0 into the "cpu.shares" file, a Div0 error occured.

We found it is caused by the following calling.

   sched_group_set_shares(tg, shares)
       set_se_shares(tg->se[i], shares/nr_cpu_ids)
           __set_se_shares(se, shares)
               div64_64((1ULL<<32), shares)

When the echoed value was less than the number of processores, the result of the
sentence "shares/nr_cpu_ids" was 0, and then the system called div64() to divide
the result, the Div0 error occured.

It is unnecessary that the shares value is divided by nr_cpu_ids, I think.
Because in the function  __update_group_shares_cpu() and init_tg_cfs_entry(),
the shares value isn't divided by nr_cpu_ids when setting shares of the sched
entity.

This patch fixes this bug. And echoing ULONG_MAX value into cpu.shares also
causes Div0 error, so we set a macro MAX_SHARES to limit the max value of
shares.

Heiko Carstens 712555ee4f sched: fix missing locking in sched_domains code
Concurrent calls to detach_destroy_domains and arch_init_sched_domains
were prevented by the old scheduler subsystem cpu hotplug mutex. When
this got converted to get_online_cpus() the locking got broken.
Unlike before now several processes can concurrently enter the critical
sections that were protected by the old lock.

So use the already present doms_cur_mutex to protect these sections again.

This looks like its indeed not cancelled at all and migrates the it to
another cpu. Fix it via a proper hotplug notifier mechanism.

Gregory Haskins 104f64549c sched: fix SCHED_FAIR wake-idle logic error
We currently use an optimization to skip the overhead of wake-idle
processing if more than one task is assigned to a run-queue.  The
assumption is that the system must already be load-balanced or we
wouldnt be overloaded to begin with.

The problem is that we are looking at rq->nr_running, which may include
RT tasks in addition to CFS tasks.  Since the presence of RT tasks
really has no bearing on the balance status of CFS tasks, this throws
the calculation off.

This patch changes the logic to only consider the number of CFS tasks
when making the decision to optimze the wake-idle.

Gregory Haskins 8ae121ac86 sched: fix RT task-wakeup logic
Dmitry Adamushko pointed out a logic error in task_wake_up_rt() where we
will always evaluate to "true".  You can find the thread here:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/4/22/296

In reality, we only want to try to push tasks away when a wake up request is
not going to preempt the current task.  So lets fix it.

Note: We introduce test_tsk_need_resched() instead of open-coding the flag
check so that the merge-conflict with -rt should help remind us that we
may need to support NEEDS_RESCHED_DELAYED in the future, too.

according to IBM.  futex.h is left untouched to make sure the id does

out to avoid a warning, i didnt remove it completely since it is part of

Jason Wessel 7cfcd985d3 kgdb: 1000 loops for the single step test in kgdbts
The single step test is not terribly costly and it should be able to
pass at 1000 loops successfully in under 1 second.  A non-kgdb timing
regression was found using this test, but it did not occur frequently
because by default the test was only executed a single time.

This patch changes the default for the single step test to 1000
iterations and allows for individual configuration of the single step
test to further exercise the kgdb subsystem when needed.

Ingo Molnar e73b65f1db sysfs: build fix
x86.git testing found the following build failure on v2.6.26-rc1:

  In file included from include/linux/kobject.h:22,
                   from include/linux/module.h:17,
                   from include/linux/crypto.h:22,
                   from arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets_32.c:8,
                   from arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets.c:3:
  include/linux/sysfs.h:201: error: redefinition of 'sysfs_update_group'
  include/linux/sysfs.h:195: error: previous definition of 'sysfs_update_group' was here
  make[1]: *** [arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets.s] Error 1
  make: *** [prepare0] Error 2

with the following config:

    http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/config-Sun_May__4_07_09_30_CEST_2008.bad

the reason for the build failure is the duplicate definition of the
sysfs_update_group() inline function in include/linux/sysfs.h.

The duplication was a merge error: it was added via -mm by commit
v2.6.25-7262-g2850699, "sysfs: sysfs_update_group stub for
CONFIG_SYSFS=n" a day before v2.6.26-rc1, but a day before that the same
commit was already merged upstream via the sysfs tree, with commit
v2.6.25-7211-g1cbfb7a.

Linus Torvalds 826e4506a0 Make forced module loading optional
The kernel module loader used to be much too happy to allow loading of
modules for the wrong kernel version by default.  For example, if you
had MODVERSIONS enabled, but tried to load a module with no version
info, it would happily load it and taint the kernel - whether it was
likely to actually work or not!

Generally, such forced module loading should be considered a really
really bad idea, so make it conditional on a new config option
(MODULE_FORCE_LOAD), and make it default to off.

If somebody really wants to force module loads, that's their problem,
but we should not encourage it.  Especially as it happened to me by
mistake (ie regular unversioned Fedora modules getting loaded) causing
lots of strange behavior.

Ben 163ea310b6 x86: remove dell reboot dmi quirk board name match
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10547

Newer Dell OptiPlex 745s hang before rebooting after 'sudo reboot'.

A patch for some versions of the OptiPlex was proposed here --
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/6/5/59 -- and is included in 2.6.23 and
later kernels, according to
http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.23/arch/i386/kernel/reboot.c . However,
the DMI_BOARD_NAME ("0WF810") is too restrictive. Newer OptiPlex
machines have a DMI_BOARD_NAME of "0RF703".  I therefore suggest
adding another clause to reboot.c, similar to the one in the original
patch, but matching a DMI_BOARD_NAME of "0RF703".

On further inspection, it seems that there are other DMI_BOARD_NAMEs
for this same machine. They seem to change from time to time, which
means that the current code is fragile. Moreover, using bios reboot
should not break non-SFF OptiPlex 745s, and so a reasonable fix is to
simply drop the match on DMI_BOARD_NAME.
