Only allocate the FPU area when the application actually uses FPU, i.e., in the first lazy FPU trap. This could save memory for non-fpu using apps. for example: on my system after boot, there are around 300 processes, with only 17 using FPU.

Split the FPU save area from the task struct. This allows easy migration of FPU context, and it's generally cleaner. It also allows the following two optimizations: 1) only allocate when the application actually uses FPU, so in the first lazy FPU trap. This could save memory for non-fpu using apps. Next patch does this lazy allocation. 2) allocate the right size for the actual cpu rather than 512 bytes always. Patches enabling xsave/xrstor support (coming shortly) will take advantage of this.

We already catch most of the TSC problems by sanity checks, but there is a subtle bug which has been in the code forever. This can cause time jumps in the range of hours. This was reported in: http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/8/23/96 and http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/3/31/23 I was able to reproduce the problem with a gettimeofday loop test on a dual core and a quad core machine which both have sychronized TSCs. The TSCs seems not to be perfectly in sync though, but the kernel is not able to detect the slight delta in the sync check. Still there exists an extremly small window where this delta can be observed with a real big time jump. So far I was only able to reproduce this with the vsyscall gettimeofday implementation, but in theory this might be observable with the syscall based version as well. CPU 0 updates the clock source variables under xtime/vyscall lock and CPU1, where the TSC is slighty behind CPU0, is reading the time right after the seqlock was unlocked. The clocksource reference data was updated with the TSC from CPU0 and the value which is read from TSC on CPU1 is less than the reference data. This results in a huge delta value due to the unsigned subtraction of the TSC value and the reference value. This algorithm can not be changed due to the support of wrapping clock sources like pm timer. The huge delta is converted to nanoseconds and added to xtime, which is then observable by the caller. The next gettimeofday call on CPU1 will show the correct time again as now the TSC has advanced above the reference value. To prevent this TSC specific wreckage we need to compare the TSC value against the reference value and return the latter when it is larger than the actual TSC value. I pondered to mark the TSC unstable when the readout is smaller than the reference value, but this would render an otherwise good and fast clocksource unusable without a real good reason.

This patch adds three tests that test whether the PR_GET_TSC and PR_SET_TSC commands have the desirable effect. The tests check whether the control register is updated correctly at context switches and try to discover bugs while enabling/disabling the timestamp counter.

This patch implements the PR_GET_TSC and PR_SET_TSC prctl() commands on the x86 platform (both 32 and 64 bit.) These commands control the ability to read the timestamp counter from userspace (the RDTSC instruction.) While the RDTSC instuction is a useful profiling tool, it is also the source of some non-determinism in ring-3. For deterministic replay applications it is useful to be able to trap and emulate (and record the outcome of) this instruction. This patch uses code earlier used to disable the timestamp counter for the SECCOMP framework. A side-effect of this patch is that the SECCOMP environment will now also disable the timestamp counter on x86_64 due to the addition of the TIF_NOTSC define on this platform. The code which enables/disables the RDTSC instruction during context switches is in the __switch_to_xtra function, which already handles other unusual conditions, so normal performance should not have to suffer from this change.

The kernel decompressor wrapper uses memory located beyond the end of the image. This might lead to hard to debug problems, but even if it can be proven to be safe, it is at the very least unclean.

Add the security= boot parameter. This is done to avoid LSM registration clashes in case of more than one bult-in module. User can choose a security module to enable at boot. If no security= boot parameter is specified, only the first LSM asking for registration will be loaded. An invalid security module name will be treated as if no module has been chosen. LSM modules must check now if they are allowed to register by calling security_module_enable(ops) first. Modify SELinux and SMACK to do so. Do not let SMACK register smackfs if it was not chosen on boot. Smackfs assumes that smack hooks are registered and the initial task security setup (swapper->security) is done.

This patch effectively reverts commit d0498d9a aka "[NET]: Do not allocate unneeded memory for dev->priv alignment." It was found to be buggy because of final unconditional += NETDEV_ALIGN_CONST removal. For example, for sizeof(struct net_device) being 2048 bytes, "alloc_size" was also 2048 bytes, but allocator with debugging options turned on started giving out !32-byte aligned memory resulting in redzones overwrites. Patch does small optimization in ->priv'less case: bumping size to next 32-byte boundary was always done to ensure ->priv will also be aligned. But, no ->priv, no need to do that.

The kernel now panics reliably on boot if you have a SATAPI device connected. The problem was introduced by the libata merge trying to pull out all the SFF code into a separate module. Unfortunately, if you're a satapi device you usually need to call atapi_request_sense, which has a bare invocation of a SFF callback which is NULL on non-SFF HBAs.
