      由 Ingo Molnar 提交于 
      Add ->retrigger() irq op to consolidate hw_irq_resend() implementations.
(Most architectures had it defined to NOP anyway.)

      [PATCH] sched: mc/smt power savings sched policy · 5c45bf27
      由 Siddha, Suresh B 提交于 
      sysfs entries 'sched_mc_power_savings' and 'sched_smt_power_savings' in
/sys/devices/system/cpu/ control the MC/SMT power savings policy for the
scheduler.

Based on the values (1-enable, 0-disable) for these controls, sched groups
cpu power will be determined for different domains.  When power savings
policy is enabled and under light load conditions, scheduler will minimize
the physical packages/cpu cores carrying the load and thus conserving
power(with a perf impact based on the workload characteristics...  see OLS
2005 CMP kernel scheduler paper for more details..)

      [PATCH] vdso: randomize the i386 vDSO by moving it into a vma · e6e5494c
      由 Ingo Molnar 提交于 
      Move the i386 VDSO down into a vma and thus randomize it.

Besides the security implications, this feature also helps debuggers, which
can COW a vma-backed VDSO just like a normal DSO and can thus do
single-stepping and other debugging features.

It's good for hypervisors (Xen, VMWare) too, which typically live in the same
high-mapped address space as the VDSO, hence whenever the VDSO is used, they
get lots of guest pagefaults and have to fix such guest accesses up - which
slows things down instead of speeding things up (the primary purpose of the
VDSO).

There's a new CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO (default=y) option, which provides support
for older glibcs that still rely on a prelinked high-mapped VDSO.  Newer
distributions (using glibc 2.3.3 or later) can turn this option off.  Turning
it off is also recommended for security reasons: attackers cannot use the
predictable high-mapped VDSO page as syscall trampoline anymore.

There is a new vdso=[0|1] boot option as well, and a runtime
/proc/sys/vm/vdso_enabled sysctl switch, that allows the VDSO to be turned
on/off.

(This version of the VDSO-randomization patch also has working ELF
coredumping, the previous patch crashed in the coredumping code.)

This code is a combined work of the exec-shield VDSO randomization
code and Gerd Hoffmann's hypervisor-centric VDSO patch. Rusty Russell
started this patch and i completed it.

      [PATCH] Register sysfs file for hotplugged new node · 0fc44159
      由 Yasunori Goto 提交于 
      When new node becomes enable by hot-add, new sysfs file must be created for
new node.  So, if new node is enabled by add_memory(), register_one_node() is
called to create it.  In addition, I386's arch_register_node() and a part of
register_nodes() of powerpc are consolidated to register_one_node() as a
generic_code().

This is tested by Tiger4(IPF) with node hot-plug emulation.

      [PATCH] Make copy_from_user_inatomic NOT zero the tail on i386 · 7c12d811
      由 NeilBrown 提交于 
      As described in a previous patch and documented in mm/filemap.h,
copy_from_user_inatomic* shouldn't zero out the tail of the buffer after an
incomplete copy.

This patch implements that change for i386.

For the _nocache version, a new __copy_user_intel_nocache is defined similar
to copy_user_zeroio_intel_nocache, and this is ultimately used for the copy.

For the regular version, __copy_from_user_ll_nozero is defined which uses
__copy_user and __copy_user_intel - the later needs casts to reposition the
__user annotations.

If copy_from_user_atomic is given a constant length of 1, 2, or 4, then we do
still zero the destintion on failure.  This didn't seem worth the effort of
fixing as the places where it is used really don't care.

      [PATCH] Prepare for __copy_from_user_inatomic to not zero missed bytes · 01408c49
      由 NeilBrown 提交于 
      The problem is that when we write to a file, the copy from userspace to
pagecache is first done with preemption disabled, so if the source address is
not immediately available the copy fails *and* *zeros* *the* *destination*.

This is a problem because a concurrent read (which admittedly is an odd thing
to do) might see zeros rather that was there before the write, or what was
there after, or some mixture of the two (any of these being a reasonable thing
to see).

If the copy did fail, it will immediately be retried with preemption
re-enabled so any transient problem with accessing the source won't cause an
error.

The first copying does not need to zero any uncopied bytes, and doing so
causes the problem.  It uses copy_from_user_atomic rather than copy_from_user
so the simple expedient is to change copy_from_user_atomic to *not* zero out
bytes on failure.

The first of these two patches prepares for the change by fixing two places
which assume copy_from_user_atomic does zero the tail.  The two usages are
very similar pieces of code which copy from a userspace iovec into one or more
page-cache pages.  These are changed to remove the assumption.

The second patch changes __copy_from_user_inatomic* to not zero the tail.
Once these are accepted, I will look at similar patches of other architectures
where this is important (ppc, mips and sparc being the ones I can find).

This patch:

There is a problem with __copy_from_user_inatomic zeroing the tail of the
buffer in the case of an error.  As it is called in atomic context, the error
may be transient, so it results in zeros being written where maybe they
shouldn't be.

In the usage in filemap, this opens a window for a well timed read to see data
(zeros) which is not consistent with any ordering of reads and writes.

Most cases where __copy_from_user_inatomic is called, a failure results in
__copy_from_user being called immediately.  As long as the latter zeros the
tail, the former doesn't need to.  However in *copy_from_user_iovec
implementations (in both filemap and ntfs/file), it is assumed that
copy_from_user_inatomic will zero the tail.

This patch removes that assumption, so that after this patch it will
be safe for copy_from_user_inatomic to not zero the tail.

This patch also adds some commentary to filemap.h and asm-i386/uaccess.h.

After this patch, all architectures that might disable preempt when
kmap_atomic is called need to have their __copy_from_user_inatomic* "fixed".
This includes
 - powerpc
 - i386
 - mips
 - sparc

      [PATCH] Clean up and refactor i386 sub-architecture setup · e75eac33
      由 Jeremy Fitzhardinge 提交于 
      Clean up and refactor i386 sub-architecture setup.

This change moves all the code from the
asm-i386/mach-*/setup_arch_pre/post.h headers, into
arch/i386/mach-*/setup.c.  mach-*/setup_arch_pre.h is renamed to
setup_arch.h, and contains only things which should be in header files.  It
is purely code-motion; there should be no functional changes at all.

Several functions in arch/i386/kernel/setup.c needed to be made non-static
so that they're visible to the code in mach-*/setup.c.  asm-i386/setup.h is
used to hold the prototypes for these functions.

      [PATCH] x86_64: avoid IRQ0 ioapic pin collision · e0c1e9bf
      由 Kimball Murray 提交于 
      The patch addresses a problem with ACPI SCI interrupt entry, which gets
re-used, and the IRQ is assigned to another unrelated device.  The patch
corrects the code such that SCI IRQ is skipped and duplicate entry is
avoided.  Second issue came up with VIA chipset, the problem was caused by
original patch assigning IRQs starting 16 and up.  The VIA chipset uses
4-bit IRQ register for internal interrupt routing, and therefore cannot
handle IRQ numbers assigned to its devices.  The patch corrects this
problem by allowing PCI IRQs below 16.
