The check (boot_cpu_data.x86 == 3) in atomic_add_return() and local_add_return() fails, when those operations are used before boot_cpu_data is filled in. Change the check to (boot_cpu_data.x86 <= 3) to fix this.

The NOHZ patch contains a check for softirqs pending when a CPU goes idle. The BUG is unrelated to NOHZ, it just was made visible by the NOHZ patch. The BUG showed up mainly on P4 / hyperthreading enabled machines which lead the investigations into the wrong direction in the first place. The real cause is in cond_resched_softirq(): cond_resched_softirq() is enabling softirqs without invoking the softirq daemon when softirqs are pending. This leads to the warning message in the NOHZ idle code: t1 runs softirq disabled code on CPU#0 interrupt happens, softirq is raised, but deferred (softirqs disabled) t1 calls cond_resched_softirq() enables softirqs via _local_bh_enable() calls schedule() t2 runs t1 is migrated to CPU#1 t2 is done and invokes idle() NOHZ detects the pending softirq Fix: change _local_bh_enable() to local_bh_enable() so the softirq daemon is invoked. Thanks to Anant Nitya for debugging this with great patience !

Adding a drive to a linear array seems to have stopped working, due to changes elsewhere in md, and insufficient ongoing testing...

If a raid0 has a component device larger than 4TB, and is accessed on a 32bit machines, then as 'chunk' is unsigned long, chunk << chunksize_bits can overflow (this can be as high as the size of the device in KB). chunk itself will not overflow (without triggering a BUG). So change 'chunk' to be 'sector_t, and get rid of the 'BUG' as it becomes impossible to hit.

Gathering signals in bulk enables server applications to drain a signal queue (almost full of realtime signals) more efficiently by reducing the syscall and file look-up overhead. Very similar to the sigtimedwait4() call described by Niels Provos, Chuck Lever, and Stephen Tweedie in a paper entitled "Analyzing the Overload Behavior of a Simple Web Server".

cleanup_workqueue_thread() and cwq_should_stop() are overcomplicated. Convert the code to use kthread_should_stop/kthread_stop as was suggested by Gautham and Srivatsa. In particular this patch removes the (unlikely) busy-wait loop from the exit path, it was a temporary and ugly kludge (if not a bug). Note: the current code was designed to solve another old problem: work->func can't share locks with hotplug callbacks. I think this could be done, see http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=116905366428633 but this needs some more complications to preserve CPU affinity of cwq->thread during cpu_up(). A freezer-based hotplug looks more appealing.

The check for super sized slabs where we can no longer move the free pointer behind the object for debugging purposes etc is accessing a field that is not setup yet. We must use objsize here since the size of the slab has not been determined yet. The effect of this is that a global slab shrink via "slabinfo -s" will show errors about offsets being wrong if booted with slub_debug. Potentially there are other troubles with huge slabs under slub_debug because the calculated free pointer offset is truncated.

Steve Hawkes discovered a problem where recalc_sigpending_tsk was called in do_sigaction but no signal_wake_up call was made, preventing later signals from waking up blocked threads with TIF_SIGPENDING already set. In fact, the few other calls to recalc_sigpending_tsk outside the signals code are also subject to this problem in other race conditions. This change makes recalc_sigpending_tsk private to the signals code. It changes the outside calls, as well as do_sigaction, to use the new recalc_sigpending_and_wake instead.
