      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      [WATCHDOG] hpwdt: Fix kdump when using hpwdt · 290172e7
      Bernhard Walle 提交于
      When the "hpwdt" module is loaded (even if the /dev/watchdog device is not
      opened), then kdump does not work. The panic kernel either does not start at
      all or crash in various places.
      
      The problem is that hpwdt_pretimeout is registered with register_die_notifier()
      with the highest possible priority. Because it returns NOTIFY_STOP, the
      crash_nmi_callback which is also registered with register_die_notifier()
      is never executed. This causes the shutdown of other CPUs to fail.
      
      Reverting the order is no option: The crash_nmi_callback executes HLT
      and so never returns normally. Because of that, it must be executed as
      last notifier, which currently is done.
      
      So, that patch returns NOTIFY_OK to keep the crash_nmi_callback executed.

      [WATCHDOG] hpwdt: set the mapped BIOS address space as executable · 06026413
      Bernhard Walle 提交于
      The address provided by the SMBIOS/DMI CRU information is mapped via
      ioremap() in the virtual address space.  However, since the address is
      executed (i.e.  call'd), we need to set that pages as executable.
      
      Without that, I get following oops on a HP ProLiant DL385 G2

      [watchdog] hpwdt: fix use of inline assembly · 1f6ef234
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      The inline assembly in drivers/watchdog/hpwdt.c was incredibly broken,
      and included all the function prologue and epilogue stuff, even though
      it was itself then inside a C function where the compiler would add its
      own prologue and epilogue on top of it all.
      
      This then just _happened_ to work if you had exactly the right compiler
      version and exactly the right compiler flags, so that gcc just happened
      to not create any prologue at all (the gcc-generated epilogue wouldn't
      matter, since it would never be reached).
      
      But the more proper way to fix it is to simply not do this.  Move the
      inline asm to the top level, with no surrounding function at all (the
      better alternative would be to remove the prologue and make it actually
      use proper description of the arguments to the inline asm, but that's a
      bigger change than the one I'm willing to make right now).

      Hp is providing a Hardware WatchDog Timer driver that will only work with the
      specific HW Timer located in the HP ProLiant iLO 2 ASIC. The iLO 2 HW Timer
      will generate a Non-maskable Interrupt (NMI) 9 seconds before physically
      resetting the server, by removing power, so that the event can be logged to
      the HP Integrated Management Log (IML), a Non-Volatile Random Access Memory
      (NVRAM). The logging of the event is performed using the HP ProLiant ROM via
      an Industry Standard access known as a BIOS Service Directory Entry.
