Oleg Nesterov edea0d03ee ia64: kill thread_matches(), unexport ptrace_check_attach()
The ia64 function "thread_matches()" has no users since commit
e868a55c2a ("[IA64] remove find_thread_for_addr()").  Remove it.

This allows us to make ptrace_check_attach() static to kernel/ptrace.c,
which is good since we'll need to change the semantics of it and fix up
all the callers.

Linus Torvalds 49569646b2 Driver core __dev* removal patches
Here are the remaining __dev* removal patches against the 3.8-rc2 tree.
 All of these patches were previously sent to the subsystem maintainers,
 most of them were picked up and pushed to you, but there were a number
 that fell through the cracks, and new drivers were added during the
 merge window, so this series cleans up the rest of the instances of
 these markings.
 
 Third time's the charm...

Greg Kroah-Hartman 5b5e76e9cb IA64: drivers: remove __dev* attributes.
CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option.  As a result, the __dev*
markings need to be removed.

This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata,
and __devexit from these drivers.

Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

Linus Torvalds 787314c35f IOMMU Updates for Linux v3.8
A few new features this merge-window. The most important one is
 probably, that dma-debug now warns if a dma-handle is not checked with
 dma_mapping_error by the device driver. This requires minor changes to
 some architectures which make use of dma-debug. Most of these changes
 have the respective Acks by the Arch-Maintainers.
 Besides that there are updates to the AMD IOMMU driver for refactor the
 IOMMU-Groups support and to make sure it does not trigger a hardware
 erratum.
 The OMAP changes (for which I pulled in a branch from Tony Lindgren's
 tree) have a conflict in linux-next with the arm-soc tree. The conflict
 is in the file arch/arm/mach-omap2/clock44xx_data.c which is deleted in
 the arm-soc tree. It is safe to delete the file too so solve the
 conflict. Similar changes are done in the arm-soc tree in the common
 clock framework migration. A missing hunk from the patch in the IOMMU
 tree will be submitted as a seperate patch when the merge-window is
 closed.

Pull big execve/kernel_thread/fork unification series from Al Viro:
 "All architectures are converted to new model.  Quite a bit of that
  stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's
  literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick.

  A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one):

   - kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign.

     We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread()
     or kernel_execve():

     kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we
     return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do
     successful do_execve() before returning.

     kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to
     do transition to user mode anymore.

     As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are
     arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c
     resp.  sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely
     architecture-independent.

   - daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c

   - struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/
     copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/->load_binary/do_coredump.

   - sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures
     still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in
     pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in
     kernel/fork.c now."

Linus Torvalds f57d54bab6 Merge branch 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The biggest change affects group scheduling: we now track the runnable
  average on a per-task entity basis, allowing a smoother, exponential
  decay average based load/weight estimation instead of the previous
  binary on-the-runqueue/off-the-runqueue load weight method.

  This will inevitably disturb workloads that were in some sort of
  borderline balancing state or unstable equilibrium, so an eye has to
  be kept on regressions.

  For that reason the new load average is only limited to group
  scheduling (shares distribution) at the moment (which was also hurting
  the most from the prior, crude weight calculation and whose scheduling
  quality wins most from this change) - but we plan to extend this to
  regular SMP balancing as well in the future, which will simplify and
  speed up things a bit.

  Other changes involve ongoing preparatory work to extend NOHZ to the
  scheduler as well, eventually allowing completely irq-free user-space
  execution."

Linus Torvalds 090f8ccba3 Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Lots of activity:

   211 files changed, 8328 insertions(+), 4116 deletions(-)

  most of it on the tooling side.

  Main changes:

   * ftrace enhancements and fixes from Steve Rostedt.

   * uprobes fixes, cleanups and preparation for the ARM port from Oleg
     Nesterov.

   * UAPI fixes, from David Howels - prepares the arch/x86 UAPI
     transition

   * Separate perf tests into multiple objects, one per test, from Jiri
     Olsa.

   * Make hardware event translations available in sysfs, from Jiri
     Olsa.

   * Fixes to /proc/pid/maps parsing, preparatory to supporting data
     maps, from Namhyung Kim

   * Implement ui_progress for GTK, from Namhyung Kim

   * Add framework for automated perf_event_attr tests, where tools with
     different command line options will be run from a 'perf test', via
     python glue, and the perf syscall will be intercepted to verify
     that the perf_event_attr fields set by the tool are those expected,
     from Jiri Olsa

   * Add a 'link' method for hists, so that we can have the leader with
     buckets for all the entries in all the hists.  This new method is
     now used in the default 'diff' output, making the sum of the
     'baseline' column be 100%, eliminating blind spots.

   * libtraceevent fixes for compiler warnings trying to make perf it
     build on some distros, like fedora 14, 32-bit, some of the warnings
     really pointed to real bugs.

   * Add a browser for 'perf script' and make it available from the
     report and annotate browsers.  It does filtering to find the
     scripts that handle events found in the perf.data file used.  From
     Feng Tang

   * perf inject changes to allow showing where a task sleeps, from
     Andrew Vagin.

   * Makefile improvements from Namhyung Kim.

   * Add --pre and --post command hooks in 'stat', from Peter Zijlstra.

   * Don't stop synthesizing threads when one vanishes, this is for the
     existing threads when we start a tool like trace.

   * Use sched:sched_stat_runtime to provide a thread summary, this
     produces the same output as the 'trace summary' subcommand of
     tglx's original "trace" tool.

   * Support interrupted syscalls in 'trace'

   * Add an event duration column and filter in 'trace'.

   * There are references to the man pages in some tools, so try to
     build Documentation when installing, warning the user if that is
     not possible, from Borislav Petkov.

   * Give user better message if precise is not supported, from David
     Ahern.

   * Try to find cross-built objdump path by using the session
     environment information in the perf.data file header, from Irina
     Tirdea, original patch and idea by Namhyung Kim.

   * Diplays more output on features check for make V=1, so that one can
     figure out what is happening by looking at gcc output, etc.  From
     Jiri Olsa.

   * Add on_exit implementation for systems without one, e.g.  Android,
     from Bernhard Rosenkraenzer.

   * Only process events for vcpus of interest, helps handling large
     number of events, from David Ahern.

   * Cross compilation fixes for Android, from Irina Tirdea.

   * Add documentation on compiling for Android, from Irina Tirdea.

   * perf diff improvements from Jiri Olsa.

   * Target (task/user/cpu/syswide) handling improvements, from Namhyung
     Kim.

   * Add support in 'trace' for tracing workload given by command line,
     from Namhyung Kim.

vtime_account_idle() need to be irqsafe. Current callers include
irq entry, exit and kvm, all of which have been checked against that
requirement. Now it's better to grow that with an automatic check
in case we have further callers or we missed something.

a special case because pending user and system time accounting
there is hard to dissociate. So it's keeping its own implementation.

Prepending irq-unsafe vtime APIs with underscores was actually
a bad idea as the result is a big mess in the API namespace that
is even waiting to be further extended. Also these helpers
are always called from irq safe callers except kvm. Just
provide a vtime_account_system_irqsafe() for this specific
case so that we can remove the underscore prefix on other
vtime functions.

Andrew Morton 5576646f3c revert "mm: fix-up zone present pages"
Revert commit 7f1290f2f2 ("mm: fix-up zone present pages")

That patch tried to fix a issue when calculating zone->present_pages,
but it caused a regression on 32bit systems with HIGHMEM.  With that
change, reset_zone_present_pages() resets all zone->present_pages to
zero, and fixup_zone_present_pages() is called to recalculate
zone->present_pages when the boot allocator frees core memory pages into
buddy allocator.  Because highmem pages are not freed by bootmem
allocator, all highmem zones' present_pages becomes zero.

Various options for improving the situation are being discussed but for
now, let's return to the 3.6 code.

Jiri Slaby 191c5f1027 TTY: call tty_port_destroy in the rest of drivers
After commit "TTY: move tty buffers to tty_port", the tty buffers are
not freed in some drivers. This is because tty_port_destructor is not
called whenever a tty_port is freed. This was an assumption I counted
with but was unfortunately untrue. So fix the drivers to fulfil this
assumption.

To be sure, the TTY buffers (and later some stuff) are gone along with
the tty_port, we have to call tty_port_destroy at tear-down places.
This is mostly where the structure containing a tty_port is freed.
This patch does exactly that -- put tty_port_destroy at those places.

Mika Westerberg 06f64c8f23 driver core / ACPI: Move ACPI support to core device and driver types
With ACPI 5 we are starting to see devices that don't natively support
discovery but can be enumerated with the help of the ACPI namespace.
Typically, these devices can be represented in the Linux device driver
model as platform devices or some serial bus devices, like SPI or I2C
devices.

Since we want to re-use existing drivers for those devices, we need a
way for drivers to specify the ACPI IDs of supported devices, so that
they can be matched against device nodes in the ACPI namespace.  To
this end, it is sufficient to add a pointer to an array of supported
ACPI device IDs, that can be provided by the driver, to struct device.

Moreover, things like ACPI power management need to have access to
the ACPI handle of each supported device, because that handle is used
to invoke AML methods associated with the corresponding ACPI device
node.  The ACPI handles of devices are now stored in the archdata
member structure of struct device whose definition depends on the
architecture and includes the ACPI handle only on x86 and ia64. Since
the pointer to an array of supported ACPI IDs is added to struct
device_driver in an architecture-independent way, it is logical to
move the ACPI handle from archdata to struct device itself at the same
time.  This also makes code more straightforward in some places and
follows the example of Device Trees that have a poiter to struct
device_node in there too.

This changeset is based on Mika Westerberg's work.

David Sharp 8cbd9cc625 tracing,x86: Add a TSC trace_clock
In order to promote interoperability between userspace tracers and ftrace,
add a trace_clock that reports raw TSC values which will then be recorded
in the ring buffer. Userspace tracers that also record TSCs are then on
exactly the same time base as the kernel and events can be unambiguously
interlaced.

Tested: Enabled a tracepoint and the "tsc" trace_clock and saw very large
timestamp values.

v2:
Move arch-specific bits out of generic code.
v3:
Rename "x86-tsc", cleanups
v7:
Generic arch bits in Kbuild.

Tony Luck 4fafc8c214 [IA64] Resolve name space collision for cache_show()
We have a local static function named rather generically
"cache_show()". Changes in progress in the slab code want
to use this same name globally - so they are adding their
declaration to <linux/slab.h> which then causes the compiler
to choke with:

arch/ia64/kernel/topology.c:278: error: conflicting types for 'cache_show'

Fix by adding an "ia64_" prefix to our local function.

Pavel Emelyanov a8fc927780 sk-filter: Add ability to get socket filter program (v2)
The SO_ATTACH_FILTER option is set only. I propose to add the get
ability by using SO_ATTACH_FILTER in getsockopt. To be less
irritating to eyes the SO_GET_FILTER alias to it is declared. This
ability is required by checkpoint-restore project to be able to
save full state of a socket.

There are two issues with getting filter back.

First, kernel modifies the sock_filter->code on filter load, thus in
order to return the filter element back to user we have to decode it
into user-visible constants. Fortunately the modification in question
is interconvertible.

Second, the BPF_S_ALU_DIV_K code modifies the command argument k to
speed up the run-time division by doing kernel_k = reciprocal(user_k).
Bad news is that different user_k may result in same kernel_k, so we
can't get the original user_k back. Good news is that we don't have
to do it. What we need to is calculate a user2_k so, that

  reciprocal(user2_k) == reciprocal(user_k) == kernel_k

i.e. if it's re-loaded back the compiled again value will be exactly
the same as it was. That said, the user2_k can be calculated like this

  user2_k = reciprocal(kernel_k)

with an exception, that if kernel_k == 0, then user2_k == 1.

The optlen argument is treated like this -- when zero, kernel returns
the amount of sock_fprog elements in filter, otherwise it should be
large enough for the sock_fprog array.

changes since v1:
* Declared SO_GET_FILTER in all arch headers
* Added decode of vlan-tag codes

Frederic Weisbecker 11113334d1 vtime: Make vtime_account_system() irqsafe
vtime_account_system() currently has only one caller with
vtime_account() which is irq safe.

Now we are going to call it from other places like kvm where
irqs are not always disabled by the time we account the cputime.

So let's make it irqsafe. The arch implementation part is now
prefixed with "__".

vtime_account_idle() arch implementation is prefixed accordingly
to stay consistent.
