      Remove "noreplacement" kernel command line option. · 72538d85
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      It is no longer valid to not replace instructions, since we depend on
different behaviour depending on CPU capabilities.

If you need to limit the capabilities of the replacements (because the
boot CPU has features that non-boot CPU's do not have, for example), you
need to explicitly disable those capabilities that are not shared across
all CPU's.

For example, if your boot CPU has FXSR, but other CPU's in your system
do not, you need to use the "nofxsr" kernel command line, not disable
instruction replacement per se.

      x86: make restore_fpu() use alternative assembler instructions · 8ed1383f
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      It's really just a single instruction, conditional on whether the CPU
supports FXSR or not, so implement it as such instead of making it a
function that queries FXSR dynamically.

This means that the instruction just gets automatically rewritten to the
correct one at boot-time.

      Fix up incorrect "unlikely()" on %gs reload in x86 __switch_to · b339a18b
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      These days %gs is normally the TLS segment, so it's no longer zero.  As
a result, we shouldn't just assume that %fs/%gs tend to be zero
together, but test them independently instead.

Also, fix setting of debug registers to use the "next" pointer instead
of "current".  It so happens that the scheduler will have set the new
current pointer before calling __switch_to(), but that's just an
implementation detail.

      [PATCH] inotify · 0eeca283
      由 Robert Love 提交于 
      inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly
its inability to scale and its terrible user interface:

        * dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory
          that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many
          open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount.
        * dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to
          directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects
          the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of
          stat structures.
        * dnotify's interface to user-space is awful.  Signals?

inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change
notification:

        * inotify's interface is a system call that returns a fd, not SIGIO.
	  You get a single fd, which is select()-able.
        * inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item
          you were watching is on was unmounted."
        * inotify can watch directories or files.

Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure),
Gamin (a FAM replacement), and other projects.

      [PATCH] PCI: clean up dynamic pci id logic · 75865858
      由 Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于 
      The dynamic pci id logic has been bothering me for a while, and now that
I started to look into how to move some of this to the driver core, I
thought it was time to clean it all up.

It ends up making the code smaller, and easier to follow, and fixes a
few bugs at the same time (dynamic ids were not being matched
everywhere, and so could be missed on some call paths for new devices,
semaphore not needed to be grabbed when adding a new id and calling the
driver core, etc.)

I also renamed the function pci_match_device() to pci_match_id() as
that's what it really does.

      [PATCH] PCI: pci_assign_unassigned_resources() on x86 · 299de034
      由 Ivan Kokshaysky 提交于 
      - Add sanity check for io[port,mem]_resource in setup-bus.c. These
  resources look like "free" as they have no parents, but obviously
  we must not touch them.
- In i386.c:pci_allocate_bus_resources(), if a bridge resource cannot be
  allocated for some reason, then clear its flags. This prevents any child
  allocations in this range, so the setup-bus code will work with a clean
  resource sub-tree.
- i386.c:pcibios_enable_resources() doesn't enable bridges, as it checks
  only resources 0-5, which looks like a clear bug to me. I suspect it
  might break hotplug as well in some cases.

      [PATCH] PCI: use the MCFG table to properly access pci devices (i386) · d57e26ce
      由 Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于 
      Now that we have access to the whole MCFG table, let's properly use it
for all pci device accesses (as that's what it is there for, some boxes
don't put all the busses into one entry.)

If, for some reason, the table is incorrect, we fallback to the "old
style" of mmconfig accesses, namely, we just assume the first entry in
the table is the one for us, and blindly use it.

      [PATCH] PCI: add proper MCFG table parsing to ACPI core. · 54549391
      由 Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于 
      This patch is the first step in properly handling the MCFG PCI table.
It defines the structures properly, and saves off the table so that the
pci mmconfig code can access it.  It moves the parsing of the table a
little later in the boot process, but still before the information is
needed.

      [PATCH] ACPI based I/O APIC hot-plug: add interfaces · b1bb248a
      由 Kenji Kaneshige 提交于 
      This patch adds the following new interfaces for I/O xAPIC
hotplug. The implementation of these interfaces depends on each
architecture.

    o int acpi_register_ioapic(acpi_handle handle, u64 phys_addr,
			       u32 gsi_base);

        This new interface is to add a new I/O xAPIC specified by
        phys_addr and gsi_base pair. phys_addr is the physical address
        to which the I/O xAPIC is mapped and gsi_base is global system
        interrupt base of the I/O xAPIC. acpi_register_ioapic returns
        0 on success, or negative value on error.

    o int acpi_unregister_ioapic(acpi_handle handle, u32 gsi_base);

        This new interface is to remove a I/O xAPIC specified by
        gsi_base. acpi_unregister_ioapic returns 0 on success, or
        negative value on error.

      [PATCH] acpi bridge hotadd: ACPI based root bridge hot-add · c431ada4
      由 Rajesh Shah 提交于 
      When you hot-plug a (root) bridge hierarchy, it may have p2p bridges and
devices attached to it that have not been configured by firmware.  In this
case, we need to configure the devices before starting them.  This patch
separates device start from device scan so that we can introduce the
configuration step in the middle.

I kept the existing semantics for pci_scan_bus() since there are a huge number
of callers to that function.

Also, I have no way of testing the changes I made to the parisc files, so this
needs review by those folks.  Sorry for the massive cross-post, this touches
files in many different places.

      [PATCH] PCI Allow OutOfRange PIRQ table address · 120bb424
      由 jayalk@intworks.biz 提交于 
      I updated this to remove unnecessary variable initialization, make
check_routing be inline only and not __init, switch to strtoul, and
formatting fixes as per Randy Dunlap's recommendations.

I updated this to change pirq_table_addr to a long, and to add a warning
msg if the PIRQ table wasn't found at the specified address, as per thread
with Matthew Wilcox.

In our hardware situation, the BIOS is unable to store or generate it's PIRQ
table in the F0000h-100000h standard range. This patch adds a pci kernel
parameter, pirqaddr to allow the bootloader (or BIOS based loader) to inform
the kernel where the PIRQ table got stored. A beneficial side-effect is that,
if one's BIOS uses a static address each time for it's PIRQ table, then
pirqaddr can be used to avoid the $pirq search through that address block each
time at boot for normal PIRQ BIOSes.

      [PATCH] seccomp: tsc disable · ffaa8bd6
      由 Andrea Arcangeli 提交于 
      I believe at least for seccomp it's worth to turn off the tsc, not just for
HT but for the L2 cache too.  So it's up to you, either you turn it off
completely (which isn't very nice IMHO) or I recommend to apply this below
patch.

This has been tested successfully on x86-64 against current cogito
repository (i686 compiles so I didn't bother testing ;).  People selling
the cpu through cpushare may appreciate this bit for a peace of mind.

There's no way to get any timing info anymore with this applied
(gettimeofday is forbidden of course).  The seccomp environment is
completely deterministic so it can't be allowed to get timing info, it has
to be deterministic so in the future I can enable a computing mode that
does a parallel computing for each task with server side transparent
checkpointing and verification that the output is the same from all the 2/3
seller computers for each task, without the buyer even noticing (for now
the verification is left to the buyer client side and there's no
checkpointing, since that would require more kernel changes to track the
dirty bits but it'll be easy to extend once the basic mode is finished).

Eliminating a cold-cache read of the cr4 global variable will save one
cacheline during the tlb flush while making the code per-cpu-safe at the
same time.  Thanks to Mikael Pettersson for noticing the tlb flush wasn't
per-cpu-safe.

The global tlb flush can run from irq (IPI calling do_flush_tlb_all) but
it'll be transparent to the switch_to code since the IPI won't make any
change to the cr4 contents from the point of view of the interrupted code
and since it's now all per-cpu stuff, it will not race.  So no need to
disable irqs in switch_to slow path.

      [PATCH] Update cfq io scheduler to time sliced design · 22e2c507

      This updates the CFQ io scheduler to the new time sliced design (cfq
v3).  It provides full process fairness, while giving excellent
aggregate system throughput even for many competing processes.  It
supports io priorities, either inherited from the cpu nice value or set
directly with the ioprio_get/set syscalls.  The latter closely mimic
set/getpriority.

This import is based on my latest from -mm.
