The following fix was initially inspired by David Howells fix
few days back:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/7/9/109
However, Ingo disapproves such fixes as it's dangerous (it can
hide future, relevant warnings) - in something as
performance-uncritical.
So, initialize 'err' to '0' to work around a GCC false positive
warning:

In uv_setup_irq(), the call to create_irq() initially assigns
IRQ vectors to cpu 0. The subsequent call to
assign_irq_vector() in arch_enable_uv_irq() migrates the IRQ to
another cpu and frees the cpu 0 vector - at least it will be
freed as soon as the "IRQ move" completes.
arch_enable_uv_irq() needs to send a cleanup IPI to complete
the IRQ move. Otherwise, assignment of GRU interrupts on large
systems (>200 cpus) will exhaust the cpu 0 interrupt vectors
and initialization of the GRU driver will fail.

With VMALLOC_END included in the calculation of MAXMEM (as of
2.6.28) it is no longer correct to also bump __VMALLOC_RESERVE
in reserve_top_address(). Doing so results in needlessly small
lowmem.

From Gabe Black in bugzilla 13888:
native_save_fl is implemented as follows:
11static inline unsigned long native_save_fl(void)
12{
13 unsigned long flags;
14
15 asm volatile("# __raw_save_flags\n\t"
16 "pushf ; pop %0"
17 : "=g" (flags)
18 : /* no input */
19 : "memory");
20
21 return flags;
22}
If gcc chooses to put flags on the stack, for instance because this is
inlined into a larger function with more register pressure, the offset
of the flags variable from the stack pointer will change when the
pushf is performed. gcc doesn't attempt to understand that fact, and
address used for pop will still be the same. It will write to
somewhere near flags on the stack but not actually into it and
overwrite some other value.
I saw this happen in the ide_device_add_all function when running in a
simulator I work on. I'm assuming that some quirk of how the simulated
hardware is set up caused the code path this is on to be executed when
it normally wouldn't.
A simple fix might be to change "=g" to "=r".

Booting current 64-bit x86 kernels on the latest Apple MacBook

This happens because the 64-bit version of efi_ioremap calls
init_memory_mapping for all addresses, regardless of whether they are
RAM or MMIO. The EFI tables on this machine ask for runtime access to
some MMIO regions:
[ 0.000000] EFI: mem195: type=11, attr=0x8000000000000000, range=[0x0000000093400000-0x0000000093401000) (0MB)

This arranges to pass the EFI memory type through to efi_ioremap, and
makes efi_ioremap use ioremap rather than init_memory_mapping if the
type is EFI_MEMORY_MAPPED_IO. With this, the above warning goes away.

The latest Apple MacBook (MacBook5,2) doesn't reboot successfully
under Linux; neither the EFI reboot method nor the default method
using the keyboard controller works (the system just hangs and doesn't
reset). However, the method using the "PCI reset register" at 0xcf9
does work.
This adds a quirk to detect this machine via DMI and force the
reboot_type to BOOT_CF9. With this it reboots successfully without
requiring a command-line option. Note that the EFI code forces
reboot_type to BOOT_EFI when the machine is booted via EFI, but this
overrides that since the core_initcall runs after the EFI
initialization code.

The code was incorrectly reserving memtypes using the page
virtual address instead of the physical address. Furthermore,
the code was not ignoring highmem pages as it ought to.
( upstream does not pass in highmem pages yet - but upcoming
graphics code will do it and there's no reason to not handle
this properly in the CPA APIs.)

Changeset 3869c4aa18835c8c61b44bd0f3ace36e9d3b5bd0
that went in after 2.6.30-rc1 was a seemingly small change to _set_memory_wc()
to make it complaint with SDM requirements. But, introduced a nasty bug, which
can result in crash and/or strange corruptions when set_memory_wc is used.
One such crash reported here
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/7/30/94
Actually, that changeset introduced two bugs.
* change_page_attr_set() takes &addr as first argument and can the addr value
might have changed on return, even for single page change_page_attr_set()
call. That will make the second change_page_attr_set() in this routine
operate on unrelated addr, that can eventually cause strange corruptions
and bad page state crash.
* The second change_page_attr_set() call, before setting _PAGE_CACHE_WC, should
clear the earlier _PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS, as otherwise cache attribute will not
be WC (will be UC instead).
The patch below fixes both these problems. Sending a single patch to fix both
the problems, as the change is to the same line of code. The change to have a
addr_copy is not very clean. But, it is simpler than making more changes
through various routines in pageattr.c.
A huge thanks to Jerome for reporting this problem and providing a simple test
case that helped us root cause the problem.

mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb()
Upcoming paches to support the new 64-bit "BookE" powerpc architecture
will need to have the virtual address corresponding to PTE page when
freeing it, due to the way the HW table walker works.
Basically, the TLB can be loaded with "large" pages that cover the whole
virtual space (well, sort-of, half of it actually) represented by a PTE
page, and which contain an "indirect" bit indicating that this TLB entry
RPN points to an array of PTEs from which the TLB can then create direct
entries. Thus, in order to invalidate those when PTE pages are deleted,
we need the virtual address to pass to tlbilx or tlbivax instructions.
The old trick of sticking it somewhere in the PTE page struct page sucks
too much, the address is almost readily available in all call sites and
almost everybody implemets these as macros, so we may as well add the
argument everywhere. I added it to the pmd and pud variants for consistency.

Timer interrupts are excluded from being disabled during suspend. The
clock events code manages the disabling of clock events on its own
because the timer interrupt needs to be functional before the resume
code reenables the device interrupts.
The mfgpt timer request its interrupt without setting the IRQF_TIMER
flag so suspend_device_irqs() disables it as well which results in a
fatal resume failure.
Adding IRQF_TIMER to the interupt flags when requesting the mrgpt
timer interrupt solves the problem.

arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h uses wrong asm operand constraint
("ir") for movq insn. Since movq sign-extends its immediate operand,
"er" constraint should be used instead.
Attached patch changes all uses of __put_user_asm in uaccess_64.h to use
"er" when "q" insn suffix is involved.
Patch was compile tested on x86_64 with defconfig.

not having this bug.

The variable apic_numaq placed in noninit section references the
function wakeup_secondary_cpu_via_nmi(), which is in __cpuinit
section. Thus causes a section mismatch warning. To avoid such
mismatch we mark apic_numaq as __refdata.
We were warned by the following warning:

I've attached a patch to remove the Pentium M special casing of
EMON and as noticed at least with my Pentium M the hardware PMU
now works:
Performance counter stats for '/bin/ls /var/tmp':
1.809988 task-clock-msecs # 0.125 CPUs
1 context-switches # 0.001 M/sec
0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec
224 page-faults # 0.124 M/sec
1425648 cycles # 787.656 M/sec
912755 instructions # 0.640 IPC
Vince suggested that this code was trying to address erratum
Y17 in Pentium-M's:
http://download.intel.com/support/processors/mobile/pm/sb/25266532.pdf
But that erratum (related to IA32_MISC_ENABLES.7) does not
affect perfcounters as we dont use this toggle to disable RDPMC
and WRMSR/RDMSR access to performance counters. We keep cr4's
bit 8 (X86_CR4_PCE) clear so unprivileged RDPMC access is not
allowed anyway.

Since commit 5fd29d6c ("printk: clean up handling of log-levels
and newlines"), the kernel logs segfaults like:
<6>gnome-power-man[24509]: segfault at 20 ip 00007f9d4950465a sp 00007fffbb50fc70 error 4 in libgobject-2.0.so.0.2103.0[7f9d494f7000+45000]
with the extra "<6>" being KERN_INFO. This happens because the
printk in show_signal_msg() started with KERN_CONT and then
used "%s" to pass in the real level; and KERN_CONT is no longer
an empty string, and printk only pays attention to the level at
the very beginning of the format string.
Therefore, remove the KERN_CONT from this printk, since it is
now actively causing problems (and never really made any
sense).

Pull the initial preempt_count value into a single
definition site.
Maintainers for: alpha, ia64 and m68k, please have a look,
your arch code is funny.
The header magic is a bit odd, but similar to the KERNEL_DS
one, CPP waits with expanding these macros until the
INIT_THREAD_INFO macro itself is expanded, which is in
arch/*/kernel/init_task.c where we've already included
sched.h so we're good.

Stephen reported that his DL585 G2 needed noapic after 2.6.22 (?)
Dann bisected it down to:
commit 30a18d6c3f1e774de656ebd8ff219d53e2ba4029
Date: Tue Feb 19 03:21:20 2008 -0800
x86: multi pci root bus with different io resource range, on
64-bit
It turns out that:
1. that AMD-based systems have two HT chains.
2. BIOS doesn't allocate resources for BAR 6 of devices under 8132 etc
3. that multi-peer-root patch will try to split root resources to peer
root resources according to PCI conf of NB
4. PCI core assigns unassigned resources, but they overlap with BARs
that are used by ioapic addr of io4 and 8132.
The reason: at that point ioapic address are not inserted yet. Solution
is to insert ioapic resources into the tree a bit earlier.

Ingo noticed that both AMD and P6 call
x86_pmu_disable_counter() on *_pmu_enable_counter(). This is
because we rely on the side effect of that call to program
the event config but not touch the EN bit.
We change that for AMD by having enable_all() simply write
the full config in, and for P6 by explicitly coding it.
