Matt LaPlante 4b3f686d4a Attack of "the the"s in arch
The patch below corrects multiple occurances of "the the"
typos across several files, both in source comments and KConfig files.
There is no actual code changed, only text.  Note this only affects the /arch
directory, and I believe I could find many more elsewhere. :)

Linus Torvalds 8ccb3dcd1f x86: Fix booting with "no387 nofxsr"
Jesper Juhl reported that testing the software math-emulation by forcing
"no387" doesn't work on modern CPU's.

The reason was two-fold:
 - you also need to pass in "nofxsr" to make sure that we not only don't
   touch the old i387 legacy hardware, it also needs to disable the
   modern XMM/FXSR sequences
 - "nofxsr" didn't actually clear the capability bits immediately,
   leaving the early boot sequence still using FXSR until we got to
   the identify_cpu() stage.

This fixes the "nofxsr" flag to take effect immediately on the boot CPU.

Arnd Bergmann fe74290d51 [PATCH] provide kernel_execve on all architectures
This adds the new kernel_execve function on all architectures that were using
_syscall3() to implement execve.

The implementation uses code from the _syscall3 macros provided in the
unistd.h header file.  I don't have cross-compilers for any of these
architectures, so the patch is untested with the exception of i386.

Most architectures can probably implement this in a nicer way in assembly or
by combining it with the sys_execve implementation itself, but this should do
it for now.

Serge E. Hallyn 96b644bdec [PATCH] namespaces: utsname: use init_utsname when appropriate
In some places, particularly drivers and __init code, the init utsns is the
appropriate one to use.  This patch replaces those with a the init_utsname
helper.

Changes: Removed several uses of init_utsname().  Hope I picked all the
	right ones in net/ipv4/ipconfig.c.  These are now changed to
	utsname() (the per-process namespace utsname) in the previous
	patch (2/7)

Serge E. Hallyn ab516013ad [PATCH] namespaces: add nsproxy
This patch adds a nsproxy structure to the task struct.  Later patches will
move the fs namespace pointer into this structure, and introduce a new utsname
namespace into the nsproxy.

The vserver and openvz functionality, then, would be implemented in large part
by virtualizing/isolating more and more resources into namespaces, each
contained in the nsproxy.

Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli 3a872d89ba [PATCH] Kprobes: Make kprobe modules more portable
In an effort to make kprobe modules more portable, here is a patch that:

o Introduces the "symbol_name" field to struct kprobe.
  The symbol->address resolution now happens in the kernel in an
  architecture agnostic manner. 64-bit powerpc users no longer have
  to specify the ".symbols"
o Introduces the "offset" field to struct kprobe to allow a user to
  specify an offset into a symbol.
o The legacy mechanism of specifying the kprobe.addr is still supported.
  However, if both the kprobe.addr and kprobe.symbol_name are specified,
  probe registration fails with an -EINVAL.
o The symbol resolution code uses kallsyms_lookup_name(). So
  CONFIG_KPROBES now depends on CONFIG_KALLSYMS
o Apparantly kprobe modules were the only legitimate out-of-tree user of
  the kallsyms_lookup_name() EXPORT. Now that the symbol resolution
  happens in-kernel, remove the EXPORT as suggested by Christoph Hellwig
o Modify tcp_probe.c that uses the kprobe interface so as to make it
  work on multiple platforms (in its earlier form, the code wouldn't
  work, say, on powerpc)

Zachary Amsden 789e6ac0a7 [PATCH] paravirt: update pte hook
Add a pte_update_hook which notifies about pte changes that have been made
without using the set_pte / clear_pte interfaces.  This allows shadow mode
hypervisors which do not trap on page table access to maintain synchronized
shadows.

It also turns out, there was one pte update in PAE mode that wasn't using any
accessor interface at all for setting NX protection.  Considering it is PAE
specific, and the accessor is i386 specific, I didn't want to add a generic
encapsulation of this behavior yet.

Zachary Amsden 23002d88be [PATCH] paravirt: kpte flush
Create a new PTE function which combines clearing a kernel PTE with the
subsequent flush.  This allows the two to be easily combined into a single
hypercall or paravirt-op.  More subtly, reverse the order of the flush for
kmap_atomic.  Instead of flushing on establishing a mapping, flush on clearing
a mapping.  This eliminates the possibility of leaving stale kmap entries
which may still have valid TLB mappings.  This is required for direct mode
hypervisors, which need to reprotect all mappings of a given page when
changing the page type from a normal page to a protected page (such as a page
table or descriptor table page).  But it also provides some nicer semantics
for real hardware, by providing extra debug-proofing against using stale
mappings, as well as ensuring that no stale mappings exist when changing the
cacheability attributes of a page, which could lead to cache conflicts when
two different types of mappings exist for the same page.

Fernando Vazquez dc2bc768a0 [PATCH] stack overflow safe kdump: safe_smp_processor_id()
This is a the first of a series of patch-sets aiming at making kdump more
robust against stack overflows.

This patch set does the following:

* Add safe_smp_processor_id function to i386 architecture (this function was
  inspired by the x86_64 function of the same name).

* Substitute "smp_processor_id" with the stack overflow-safe
  "safe_smp_processor_id" in the reboot path to the second kernel.

This patch:

On the event of a stack overflow critical data that usually resides at the
bottom of the stack is likely to be stomped and, consequently, its use should
be avoided.

In particular, in the i386 and IA64 architectures the macro smp_processor_id
ultimately makes use of the "cpu" member of struct thread_info which resides
at the bottom of the stack.  x86_64, on the other hand, is not affected by
this problem because it benefits from the use of the PDA infrastructure.

To circumvent this problem I suggest implementing "safe_smp_processor_id()"
(it already exists in x86_64) for i386 and IA64 and use it as a replacement
for smp_processor_id in the reboot path to the dump capture kernel.  This is a
possible implementation for i386.

Atsushi Nemoto 8ef386092d [PATCH] kill wall_jiffies
With 2.6.18-rc4-mm2, now wall_jiffies will always be the same as jiffies.
So we can kill wall_jiffies completely.

This is just a cleanup and logically should not change any real behavior
except for one thing: RTC updating code in (old) ppc and xtensa use a
condition "jiffies - wall_jiffies == 1".  This condition is never met so I
suppose it is just a bug.  I just remove that condition only instead of
kill the whole "if" block.

Sukadev Bhattiprolu f400e198b2 [PATCH] pidspace: is_init()
This is an updated version of Eric Biederman's is_init() patch.
(http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/6/280).  It applies cleanly to 2.6.18-rc3 and
replaces a few more instances of ->pid == 1 with is_init().

Further, is_init() checks pid and thus removes dependency on Eric's other
patches for now.

Eric's original description:

	There are a lot of places in the kernel where we test for init
	because we give it special properties.  Most  significantly init
	must not die.  This results in code all over the kernel test
	->pid == 1.

	Introduce is_init to capture this case.

	With multiple pid spaces for all of the cases affected we are
	looking for only the first process on the system, not some other
	process that has pid == 1.

Jason Baron df67b3daea [PATCH] make PROT_WRITE imply PROT_READ
Make PROT_WRITE imply PROT_READ for a number of architectures which don't
support write only in hardware.

While looking at this, I noticed that some architectures which do not
support write only mappings already take the exact same approach.  For
example, in arch/alpha/mm/fault.c:

"
        if (cause < 0) {
                if (!(vma->vm_flags & VM_EXEC))
                        goto bad_area;
        } else if (!cause) {
                /* Allow reads even for write-only mappings */
                if (!(vma->vm_flags & (VM_READ | VM_WRITE)))
                        goto bad_area;
        } else {
                if (!(vma->vm_flags & VM_WRITE))
                        goto bad_area;
        }
"

Thus, this patch brings other architectures which do not support write only
mappings in-line and consistent with the rest.  I've verified the patch on
ia64, x86_64 and x86.

Additional discussion:

Several architectures, including x86, can not support write-only mappings.
The pte for x86 reserves a single bit for protection and its two states are
read only or read/write.  Thus, write only is not supported in h/w.

Currently, if i 'mmap' a page write-only, the first read attempt on that page
creates a page fault and will SEGV.  That check is enforced in
arch/blah/mm/fault.c.  However, if i first write that page it will fault in
and the pte will be set to read/write.  Thus, any subsequent reads to the page
will succeed.  It is this inconsistency in behavior that this patch is
attempting to address.  Furthermore, if the page is swapped out, and then
brought back the first read will also cause a SEGV.  Thus, any arbitrary read
on a page can potentially result in a SEGV.

According to the SuSv3 spec, "if the application requests only PROT_WRITE, the
implementation may also allow read access." Also as mentioned, some
archtectures, such as alpha, shown above already take the approach that i am
suggesting.

The counter-argument to this raised by Arjan, is that the kernel is enforcing
the write only mapping the best it can given the h/w limitations.  This is
true, however Alan Cox, and myself would argue that the inconsitency in
behavior, that is applications can sometimes work/sometimes fails is highly
undesireable.  If you read through the thread, i think people, came to an
agreement on the last patch i posted, as nobody has objected to it...

keith mannthey 3b08606dc2 [PATCH] convert i386 Summit subarch to use SRAT info for apicid_to_node calls
Convert the i386 summit subarch apicid_to_node to use node information
provided by the SRAT.  It was discussed a little on LKML a few weeks ago
and was seen as an acceptable fix.  The current way of obtaining the nodeid

 static inline int apicid_to_node(int logical_apicid)
 {
   return logical_apicid >> 5;
 }

is just not correct for all summit systems/bios.  Assuming the apicid
matches the Linux node number require a leap of faith that the bios mapped
out the apicids a set way.  Modern summit HW (IBM x460) does not layout its
bios in the manner for various reasons and is unable to boot i386 numa.

The best way to get the correct apicid to node information is from the SRAT
table during boot.  It lays out what apicid belongs to what node.  I use
this information to create a table for use at run time.

Dave Hansen 753b9f86e7 [PATCH] x86: enable VMSPLIT for highmem kernels
The current VMSPLIT Kconfig option is disabled whenever highmem is on.
This is a bit screwy because the people who need to change VMSPLIT the most
tend to be the ones with highmem and constrained lowmem.

So, remove the highmem dependency.  But, re-include the dependency for the
"full 1GB of lowmem" option.  You can't have the full 1GB of lowmem and
highmem because of the need for the vmalloc(), kmap(), etc...  areas.

I thought there would be at least a bit of tweaking to do to
get it to work, but everything seems OK.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 9c9b8b3882 [PATCH] x86: put .note.* sections into a PT_NOTE segment in vmlinux
This patch will pack any .note.* section into a PT_NOTE segment in the output
file.

To do this, we tell ld that we need a PT_NOTE segment.  This requires us to
start explicitly mapping sections to segments, so we also need to explicitly
create PT_LOAD segments for text and data, and map the sections to them
appropriately.  Fortunately, each section will default to its previous
section's segment, so it doesn't take many changes to vmlinux.lds.S.

This only changes i386 for now, but I presume the corresponding changes for
other architectures will be as simple.

This change also adds <linux/elfnote.h>, which defines C and Assembler macros
for actually creating ELF notes.

Chuck Ebbert 99325326a5 [PATCH] i386: show_registers(): try harder to print failing code
show_registers() tries to dump failing code starting 43 bytes before the
offending instruction, but this address can be bad, for example in a device
driver where the failing instruction is less than 43 bytes from the start
of the driver's code.  When that happens, try to dump code starting at the
failing instruction instead of printing no code at all.

Christoph Lameter 776ed98b84 [PATCH] reduce MAX_NR_ZONES: remove two strange uses of MAX_NR_ZONES
I keep seeing zones on various platforms that are never used and wonder why we
compile support for them into the kernel.  Counters show up for HIGHMEM and
DMA32 that are alway zero.

This patch allows the removal of ZONE_DMA32 for non x86_64 architectures and
it will get rid of ZONE_HIGHMEM for arches not using highmem (like 64 bit
architectures).  If an arch does not define CONFIG_HIGHMEM then ZONE_HIGHMEM
will not be defined.  Similarly if an arch does not define CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32
then ZONE_DMA32 will not be defined.

No current architecture uses all the 4 zones (DMA,DMA32,NORMAL,HIGH) that we
have now.  The patchset will reduce the number of zones for all platforms.

On many platforms that do not have DMA32 or HIGHMEM this will reduce the
number of zones by 50%.  F.e.  ia64 only uses DMA and NORMAL.

Large amounts of memory can be saved for larger systemss that may have a few
hundred NUMA nodes.

With ZONE_DMA32 and ZONE_HIGHMEM support optional MAX_NR_ZONES will be 2 for
many non i386 platforms and even for i386 without CONFIG_HIGHMEM set.

Tested on ia64, x86_64 and on i386 with and without highmem.

The patchset consists of 11 patches that are following this message.

One could go even further than this patchset and also make ZONE_DMA optional
because some platforms do not need a separate DMA zone and can do DMA to all
of memory.  This could reduce MAX_NR_ZONES to 1.  Such a patchset will
hopefully follow soon.

This patch:

Fix strange uses of MAX_NR_ZONES

Sometimes we use MAX_NR_ZONES - x to refer to a zone.  Make that explicit.

keith mannthey 9102330005 [PATCH] convert i386 NUMA KVA space to bootmem
Address a long standing issue of booting with an initrd on an i386 numa
system.  Currently (and always) the numa kva area is mapped into low memory
by finding the end of low memory and moving that mark down (thus creating
space for the kva).  The issue with this is that Grub loads initrds into
this similar space so when the kernel check the initrd it finds it outside
max_low_pfn and disables it (it thinks the initrd is not mapped into usable
memory) thus initrd enabled kernels can't boot i386 numa :(

My solution to the problem just converts the numa kva area to use the
bootmem allocator to save it's area (instead of moving the end of low
memory).  Using bootmem allows the kva area to be mapped into more diverse
addresses (not just the end of low memory) and enables the kva area to be
mapped below the initrd if present.

I have tested this patch on numaq(no initrd) and summit(initrd) i386 numa
based systems.

Andi Kleen 0637a70a5d [PATCH] x86: Allow disabling early pci scans with pci=noearly or disallowing conf1
Some buggy systems can machine check when config space accesses
happen for some non existent devices.  i386/x86-64 do some early
device scans that might trigger this. Allow pci=noearly to disable
this. Also when type 1 is disabling also don't do any early
accesses which are always type1.

This moves the pci= configuration parsing to be a early parameter.
I don't think this can break anything because it only changes
a single global that is only used by PCI.

Jan Beulich adf1423698 [PATCH] i386/x86-64: Work around gcc bug with noreturn functions in unwinder
Current gcc generates calls not jumps to noreturn functions. When that happens the
return address can point to the next function, which confuses the unwinder.

This patch works around it by marking asynchronous exception
frames in contrast normal call frames in the unwind information.  Then teach
the unwinder to decode this.

For normal call frames the unwinder now subtracts one from the address which avoids
this problem.  The standard libgcc unwinder uses the same trick.

It doesn't include adjustment of the printed address (i.e. for the original
example, it'd still be kernel_math_error+0 that gets displayed, but the
unwinder wouldn't get confused anymore.

This only works with binutils 2.6.17+ and some versions of H.J.Lu's 2.6.16
unfortunately because earlier binutils don't support .cfi_signal_frame

than using #define USER_MODE_MASK which depends on a config option, we use
Zach's more flexible approach of assuming ring 3 == userspace.  I also used

And:

Clean up of patch for letting kernel run other than ring 0:

a. Add some comments about the SEGMENT_IS_*_CODE() macros.
b. Add a USER_RPL macro.  (Code was comparing a value to a mask
   in some places and to the magic number 3 in other places.)

The implementation comes from Zach's [RFC, PATCH 10/24] i386 Vmi
descriptor changes:

Descriptor and trap table cleanups.  Add cleanly written accessors for
IDT and GDT gates so the subarch may override them.  Note that this
allows the hypervisor to transparently tweak the DPL of the descriptors
as well as the RPL of segments in those descriptors, with no unnecessary
kernel code modification.  It also allows the hypervisor implementation
of the VMI to tweak the gates, allowing for custom exception frames or
extra layers of indirection above the guest fault / IRQ handlers.

Prasanna S.P d28c4393a7 [PATCH] x86: error_code is not safe for kprobes
This patch moves the entry.S:error_entry to .kprobes.text section,
since code marked unsafe for kprobes jumps directly to entry.S::error_entry,
that must be marked unsafe as well.
This patch also moves all the ".previous.text" asm directives to ".previous"
for kprobes section.

AK: Following a similar i386 patch from Chuck Ebbert
AK: Also merged Jeremy's fix in.

+From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org>

KPROBE_ENTRY does a .section .kprobes.text, and expects its users to
do a .previous at the end of the function.

Unfortunately, if any code within the function switches sections, for
example .fixup, then the .previous ends up putting all subsequent code
into .fixup.  Worse, any subsequent .fixup code gets intermingled with
the code its supposed to be fixing (which is also in .fixup).  It's
surprising this didn't cause more havok.

The fix is to use .pushsection/.popsection, so this stuff nests
properly.  A further cleanup would be to get rid of all
.section/.previous pairs, since they're inherently fragile.

+From: Chuck Ebbert <76306.1226@compuserve.com>

Because code marked unsafe for kprobes jumps directly to
entry.S::error_code, that must be marked unsafe as well.
The easiest way to do that is to move the page fault entry
point to just before error_code and let it inherit the same
section.

Also moved all the ".previous" asm directives for kprobes
sections to column 1 and removed ".text" from them.

Rusty Russell 1a3f239ddf [PATCH] i386: Replace i386 open-coded cmdline parsing with
This patch replaces the open-coded early commandline parsing
throughout the i386 boot code with the generic mechanism (already used
by ppc, powerpc, ia64 and s390).  The code was inconsistent with
whether it deletes the option from the cmdline or not, meaning some of
these will get passed through the environment into init.

This transformation is mainly mechanical, but there are some notable
parts:

1) Grammar: s/linux never set's it up/linux never sets it up/

2) Remove hacked-in earlyprintk= option scanning.  When someone
   actually implements CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK, then they can use
   early_param().
[AK: actually it is implemented, but I'm adding the early_param it in the next
x86-64 patch]

3) Move declaration of generic_apic_probe() from setup.c into asm/apic.h

4) Various parameters now moved into their appropriate files (thanks Andi).

5) All parse functions which examine arg need to check for NULL,
   except one where it has subtle humor value.

Andi Kleen 3cfc348bf9 [PATCH] x86: Add portable getcpu call
For NUMA optimization and some other algorithms it is useful to have a fast
to get the current CPU and node numbers in user space.

x86-64 added a fast way to do this in a vsyscall. This adds a generic
syscall for other architectures to make it a generic portable facility.

I expect some of them will also implement it as a faster vsyscall.

The cache is an optimization for the x86-64 vsyscall optimization. Since
what the syscall returns is an approximation anyways and user space
often wants very fast results it can be cached for some time.  The norma
methods to get this information in user space are relatively slow

The vsyscall is in a better position to manage the cache because it has direct
access to a fast time stamp (jiffies). For the generic syscall optimization
it doesn't help much, but enforce a valid argument to keep programs
portable

I only added an i386 syscall entry for now. Other architectures can follow
as needed.

Enable the local APIC wdog by default for systems newer than 2004.

This comes from a strange compromise: according to arjan the reason
it was off by default was some old IBM systems that corrupted
registered when NMI happened in SMI. Can't remember more specific,
but >= 2004 should avoid these. It's probably overly broad
because most older systems should be ok (and the really old systems
won't be supported by the local apic watchdog anyways)

To quote Alan Cox:

The default Linux behaviour on an NMI of either memory or unknown is to
continue operation. For many environments such as scientific computing
it is preferable that the box is taken out and the error dealt with than
an uncorrected parity/ECC error get propogated.

A small number of systems do generate NMI's for bizarre random reasons
such as power management so the default is unchanged. In other respects
the new proc/sys entry works like the existing panic controls already in
that directory.

This is separate to the edac support - EDAC allows supported chipsets to
handle ECC errors well, this change allows unsupported cases to at least
panic rather than cause problems further down the line.

Think of this as a locking mechanism where each bit represents a different

break the 1:1 relationship to performance counters).

Andi Kleen 874c4fe389 [PATCH] i386: Allow to use GENERICARCH for UP kernels
There are some machines around (large xSeries or Unisys ES7000) that
need physical IO-APIC destination mode to access all of their IO
devices. This currently doesn't work in UP kernels as used in
distribution installers.

This patch allows to compile even UP kernels as GENERICARCH which
allows to use physical or clustered APIC mode.

keith mannthey bfa0e9a07c [PATCH] i386: fix flat mode numa on a real numa system
If there is only 1 node in the system cpus should think they are apart of
some other node.

If cases where a real numa system boots the Flat numa option make sure the
cpus don't claim to be apart on a non-existent node.

keith mannthey 24fd425edd [PATCH] i386 bootioremap / kexec fix
With CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START set to a non default values the i386
boot_ioremap code calculated its pte index wrong and users of boot_ioremap
have their areas incorrectly mapped (for me SRAT table not mapped during
early boot).  This patch removes the addr < BOOT_PTE_PTRS constraint.

[ Keith says this is applicable to 2.6.16 and 2.6.17 as well ]

Herbert Xu 560c06ae1a [CRYPTO] api: Get rid of flags argument to setkey
Now that the tfm is passed directly to setkey instead of the ctx, we no
longer need to pass the &tfm->crt_flags pointer.

This patch also gets rid of a few unnecessary checks on the key length
for ciphers as the cipher layer guarantees that the key length is within
the bounds specified by the algorithm.

Rather than testing dia_setkey every time, this patch does it only once
during crypto_alloc_tfm.  The redundant check from crypto_digest_setkey
is also removed.
