When the cpu count is high and contention hits an atomic object, the
processors can synchronize such that some cpus continually get knocked
out and cannot complete the atomic update.

So implement an exponential backoff when SMP.

For some time /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern has been able to set its output
destination as a pipe, allowing a user space helper to receive and
intellegently process a core.  This infrastructure however has some
shortcommings which can be enhanced.  Specifically:

1) The coredump code in the kernel should ignore RLIMIT_CORE limitation
   when core_pattern is a pipe, since file system resources are not being
   consumed in this case, unless the user application wishes to save the core,
   at which point the app is restricted by usual file system limits and
   restrictions.

2) The core_pattern code should be able to parse and pass options to the
   user space helper as an argv array.  The real core limit of the uid of the
   crashing proces should also be passable to the user space helper (since it
   is overridden to zero when called).

3) Some miscellaneous bugs need to be cleaned up (specifically the
   recognition of a recursive core dump, should the user mode helper itself
   crash.  Also, the core dump code in the kernel should not wait for the user
   mode helper to exit, since the same context is responsible for writing to
   the pipe, and a read of the pipe by the user mode helper will result in a
   deadlock.

This patch:

Remove the check of RLIMIT_CORE if core_pattern is a pipe.  In the event that
core_pattern is a pipe, the entire core will be fed to the user mode helper.

Now, arch dependent code around CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is a mess.
This patch cleans up them. This is against 2.6.23-rc6-mm1.

 - fix compile failure on ia64/ CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG && !CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE case.
 - For !CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE, add generic no-op remove_memory(),
   which returns -EINVAL.
 - removed remove_pages() only used in powerpc.
 - removed no-op remove_memory() in i386, sh, sparc64, x86_64.

 - only powerpc returns -ENOSYS at memory hot remove(no-op). changes it
   to return -EINVAL.

Note:
Currently, only ia64 supports CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE. I welcome other

We have had complaints where a threaded application is left in a bad state
after one of it's threads is killed when we hit a VM: out_of_memory
condition.

Killing just one of the process threads can leave the application in a bad
state, whereas killing the entire process group would allow for the
application to restart, or be otherwise handled, and makes it very obvious
that something has gone wrong.

This change allows the entire process group to be taken down, rather
than just the one thread.

We were simply concatenating the devhandle and devino and using that
as the cookie, which defeats the entire purpose of the VIRQ hypervisor
interfaces.

Now that we use physical addresses for the INO buckets, we can
allocate them dynamically for VIRQs and encode the cookies as
~__pa(bucket).  This allows us to test for and decode the cookie with
a simple:

	brlz	$reg1, 1f
	 xnor	$reg1, %g0, $reg2

sequence.

This works because bit 64 is never set in traditional
INO vectors, and it is also never set in a physical
address.  So xnor'ing the physical address of the bucket
always gives us a negative number, and thus a unique
condition we can test cheaply.

Inspired by ideas from Greg Onufer.

Currently we chain IVEC entries using 32-bit "pointers"
because we know that the ivector_table is in the main
kernel image, thus below 4GB.

This uses proper 64-bit pointers instead.

Whilst this bloats up the kernel image size, this sets
the infrastructure necessary to significantly shrink the
kernel size by using physical addresses and dynamically
allocating the ivector table.

This also makes us use the MSI queues correctly.

Each MSI queue is serviced by a normal sun4u/sun4v INO interrupt
handler.  This handler runs the MSI queue and dispatches the
virtual interrupts indicated by arriving MSIs in that MSI queue.

All of the common logic is placed in pci_msi.c, with callbacks to
handle the PCI controller specific aspects of the operations.

This common infrastructure will make it much easier to add MSG
support.

This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe.  This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables.  The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl

were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.

vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.

So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces.  The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace.  This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.

For now the ifindex generator is left global.

Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.

At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change.  Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

The PCI-E slot on T1000 connects directly to the Fire PCI chip with no
intervening bridges visible in the OBP tree.

Unfortunately the bus numbering of the device in that slot is
different (2) from the PCI host controller (0), and thus the
pci_bus_{read,write}_config_*() calls don't work out.

Complicating things further the Fire PCI controller has no config
space it responds to either.

For now treat this case specially so that devices in the slot work.

Longer term we need to perhaps cons up a dummy bridge between the Fire
and the PCI-E slot so that the bus hierarchy is complete inside of the
kernel and thus the bus numbering all works out right.
