I booted an igb kernel with the option pci=nomsi and instantly noticed
that interrupts no longer worked on my igb device.  I took a look at the
interrupt initialization and quickly discovered a comment stating:

"DO NOT USE EIAME or IAME in legacy mode"

It seemed a bit odd that bits to enable IAM were being set in legacy
interrupt mode, so I dropped out the following parts and interrupts
began working fine again.

This patch adds kdump support to the ehea driver. As the firmware doesn't free
resource handles automatically, the driver has to run an as simple as possible
free resource function in case of a crash shutdown. The function iterates over
two arrays freeing all resource handles which are stored there. The arrays are
kept up-to-date during normal runtime. The crash handler fn is triggered by the
recently introduced PPC crash shutdown reg/unreg functions.

RTM_NEWLINK allows for already existing links to be modified. For this
purpose do_setlink() is called which expects address attributes with a
payload length of at least dev->addr_len. This patch adds the necessary
validation for the RTM_NEWLINK case.

The address length for links to be created is not checked for now as the
actual attribute length is used when copying the address to the netdevice
structure. It might make sense to report an error if less than addr_len
bytes are provided but enforcing this might break drivers trying to be

Oleg Nesterov and others have pointed out that on some architectures,
the traditional sequence of

	set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
	if (CONDITION)
		return;
	schedule();

is racy wrt another CPU doing

	CONDITION = 1;
	wake_up_process(p);

because while set_current_state() has a memory barrier separating
setting of the TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE state from reading of the CONDITION
variable, there is no such memory barrier on the wakeup side.

Now, wake_up_process() does actually take a spinlock before it reads and
sets the task state on the waking side, and on x86 (and many other
architectures) that spinlock is in fact equivalent to a memory barrier,
but that is not generally guaranteed.  The write that sets CONDITION
could move into the critical region protected by the runqueue spinlock.

However, adding a smp_wmb() to before the spinlock should now order the
writing of CONDITION wrt the lock itself, which in turn is ordered wrt
the accesses within the spinlock (which includes the reading of the old
state).

This should thus close the race (which probably has never been seen in
practice, but since smp_wmb() is a no-op on x86, it's not like this will
make anything worse either on the most common architecture where the
spinlock already gave the required protection).

hotadd_new_pgdat can not be an __init function, but:

It is compiled for MEMORY_HOTPLUG configurations only
MEMORY_HOTPLUG depends on SPARSEMEM || X86_64_ACPI_NUMA
X86_64_ACPI_NUMA depends on X86_64
ARCH_FLATMEM_ENABLE depends on X86_32
ARCH_DISCONTIGMEM_ENABLE depends on X86_32
So X86_64_ACPI_NUMA implies SPARSEMEM, right?

So we can mark the stack of functions __init for !SPARSEMEM, but we must mark
them __meminit for SPARSEMEM configurations.  This is ok, because then the
calls to alloc_bootmem_node are also avoided.

Document huge memory/cache overhead of memory controller in Kconfig

I was a little surprised that 2.6.25-rc* increased struct page for the
memory controller.  At least on many x86-64 machines it will not fit into a
single cache line now anymore and also costs considerable amounts of RAM.
At earlier review I remembered asking for a external data structure for
this.

It's also quite unobvious that a innocent looking Kconfig option with a
single line Kconfig description has such a negative effect.

This patch attempts to document these disadvantages at least so that users
configuring their kernel can make a informed decision.

When running "make htmldocs" I'm seeing some non-fatal perl errors caused
by trying to parse the callback function definitions in blk-core.c.

The errors are "Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.)..."
in combination with:
Warning(linux-2.6.25-rc2/block/blk-core.c:1877): No description found for parameter ''

The function pointers are defined without a * i.e.
int (drv_callback)(struct request *)

The compiler is happy with them, but kernel-doc isn't.

This patch teaches create_parameterlist in kernel-doc to parse this type of
function pointer definition, but is it the right way to fix the problem ?
The problem only seems to occur in blk-core.c.

However with the patch applied, kernel-doc finds the correct parameter
description for the callback in blk_end_request_callback, which is doesn't
normally.

I thought it would be a bit odd to change to code to use the more normal
form of function pointers just to get the documentation to work, so I fixed
kernel-doc instead - even though this is teaching it to understand code
that might go away (The comment for blk_end_request_callback says that it
should not be used and will removed at some point).

Not all architectures implement futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic().  The default
implementation returns -ENOSYS, which is currently not handled inside of the
futex guts.

Futex PI calls and robust list exits with a held futex result in an endless
loop in the futex code on architectures which have no support.

Fixing up every place where futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() is called would
add a fair amount of extra if/else constructs to the already complex code.  It
is also not possible to disable the robust feature before user space tries to
register robust lists.

Compile time disabling is not a good idea either, as there are already
architectures with runtime detection of futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic support.

Detect the functionality at runtime instead by calling
cmpxchg_futex_value_locked() with a NULL pointer from the futex initialization
code.  This is guaranteed to fail, but the call of
futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() happens with pagefaults disabled.

On architectures, which use the asm-generic implementation or have a runtime
CPU feature detection, a -ENOSYS return value disables the PI/robust features.

On architectures with a working implementation the call returns -EFAULT and
the PI/robust features are enabled.

The relevant syscalls return -ENOSYS and the robust list exit code is blocked,
when the detection fails.
