Yes. However, it's pretty clear that the e820 entries are there for a
reason. Probably they are a hack by the BIOS maintainers to keep Windows
from stomping/moving that region, exactly because they want to keep the
bridge where it is (or, it's actually for the BIOS itself - the BIOS
tables are a horrid mess, and BIOS engineers are pretty hacky people:
they'll add random entries to make their own broken algorithms do the
"right thing").

I think we could (and probably should) solve this another way: consider
the ACPI "reserved regions" from the e820 map exactly the same way that we
do other ACPI hints - they should restrict _new_ allocations, but not
impact stuff we figure out on our own.

Basically, right now we assign _unassigned_ resources at "fs_initcall"
time. If we were to add in the e820 "reserved region" stuff before that
(but after we've done PCI discovery), we'd probably do the right thing.

Right now we do the e820 reserved regions very early indeed: we call
"register_memory()" from setup_arch(). We could move at least part of it
(the part that registers the resources) down a bit.

Here's a test-patch. I'm not saying we should absolutely do this, but it
might be interesting to try...

Current SHPCHP driver doesn't care about the confliction between
hotplug operation via sysfs and hotplug operation via attention
button. So if those ware conflicted, slot could be an unexpected
state.

This patch changes SHPCHP driver to handle slot state properly. With
this patch, slot events are handled according to the current slot
state as shown at the Table below.

		Table. Slot States and Event Handling
=========================================================================
Slot State		Event and Action
=========================================================================
STATIC			- Go to POWERON state if user initiates
(Slot enabled,		  insertion request via sysfs
 Slot disabled)		- Go to POWEROFF state if user initiates removal
			  request via sysfs
			- Go to BLINKINGON state if user presses
			  attention button when the slot is disabled
			- Go to BLINKINGOFF state if user presses
			  attention button when the slot is enabled

The event handler of SHPCHP driver is unnecessarily very complex. In
addition, current event handler can only a fixed number of events at
the same time, and some of events would be lost if several number of
events happened at the same time.

This patch simplify the event handler by using 'work queue', and it
also fix the above-mentioned issue.

Agreed, looks like an accident.  The patch [1] originally came from Kip
Walker (Broadcom back then) between 2.6.0-test3 and 2.6.0-test4.  As I
recall it was supposed to fix an issue with with PCI aborts being
signalled by the PCI bridge of the Broadcom BCM1250 family of SOCs when
probing behind pci_scan_bridge.  It is undeseriable to disable
PCI_BRIDGE_CTL_MASTER_ABORT in pci_{read,write)_config_* and the
behaviour wasn't considered a bug in need of a workaround, so this was
put in probe.c.

I don't have an affected system at hand, so can't really test but I
propose something like the below patch.

[1] http://www.linux-mips.org/git?p=linux.git;a=commit;h=599457e0cb702a31a3247ea6a5d9c6c99c4cf195

Current SHPCHP driver has a bug in its interrupt handler which cause
"IRQ #: nobody cared" oops. This problem can be reproduced easily by
the following operation.

    # cd /sys/bus/pci/slots/<slot#>
    # while true; do echo 1 > attention ; done &

The reason is that when command complete interrupt is raised, current
SHPCHP driver's interrupt handler returns IRQ_NONE regardless of if
the interrupt is handled or not.

mempool tries to allocate from the system pool first, it makes sense to

Now CONFIG_DEBUG_INITDATA is in, initial percpu data
[__per_cpu_start,__per_cpu_end] can be declared as a redzone, and invalid
accesses after boot can be detected, at least for i386.

We can let non possible cpus percpu data point to this 'redzone' instead of
NULL .

NULL was not a good choice because part of [0..32768] memory may be
readable and invalid accesses may happen unnoticed.

If CONFIG_DEBUG_INITDATA is not defined, each non possible cpu points to
the initial percpu data (__per_cpu_offset[cpu] == 0), thus invalid accesses
wont be detected/crash.

This patch also moves __per_cpu_offset[] to read_mostly area to avoid false

When we stop allocating percpu memory for not-possible CPUs we must not touch

This patch is a kernel-wide sweep of all instances of NR_CPUS.  I found very
few instances of this bug, if any.  But the patch converts lots of open-coded
test to use the preferred helper macros.
