For the case where the source is not aligned modulo 8 we don't use load-twins to suck the data in and this kills performance since normal loads allocate in the L1 cache (unlike load-twin) and thus big memcpys swipe the entire L1 D-cache. We need to allocate a register window to implement this properly, but that actually simplifies a lot of things as a nice side-effect. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

TCP V4 sequence numbers are 32bits, and RFC 793 assumed a 250 KHz clock. In order to follow network speed increase, we can use a faster clock, but we should limit this clock so that the delay between two rollovers is greater than MSL (TCP Maximum Segment Lifetime : 2 minutes) Choosing a 64 nsec clock should be OK, since the rollovers occur every 274 seconds.

For some reason old binutils genertate larger headers so increase the text offset of the vdso to avoid linker errors. Roland McGrath explains: "There are extra symbols in the '.dynsym' section that are responsible for the size difference (They also cause corresponding inflation in '.gnu.version') Older ld's wrongly generated these unneeded symbols in .dynsym. This was fixed not all that long ago (2006); binutils-2.17.50.0.6 might be the first fixed version, but I have not verified for sure where the cutoff was. The unneeded symbols et al from old ld add almost 700 bytes excess. This limits fairly tightly the amount by which the actual text and data in the vDSO can grow in the future without pushing the whole file over 4kb. If it does grow later on, we should consider changing the layout with a config option or something to pack it better without that padding, when building the kernel with newer binutils."

On a POWER6 machine running 2.6.23-rc8 I sometimes see the following error: xics_set_affinity: No online cpus in the mask 00000000,00000000,00000000,00000001 for irq 20 In a desperate attempt to get a changelog entry in 2.6.23, I took a look into it. It turns out we are passing a real and not a virtual irq into get_irq_server. This works for the case where hwirq < NR_IRQS and we set virq = hwirq. In my case however hwirq = 590082 and we try and access irq_desc[590082], slightly past the end at 512 entries. Lucky we ship lots of memory with our machines.

This reverts commit b394e43e. Lachlan McIlroy says: It tried to fix an issue where log replay is replaying an inode cluster initialisation transaction that should not be replayed because the inode cluster on disk is more up to date. Since we don't log file sizes (we rely on inode flushing to get them to disk) then we can't just replay all the transations in the log and expect the inode to be completely restored. We lose file size updates. Unfortunately this fix is causing more (serious) problems than it is fixing.

Calling handle_futex_death in exit_robust_list for the different robust mutexes of a thread basically frees the mutex. Another thread might grab the lock immediately which updates the next pointer of the mutex. fetch_robust_entry over the next pointer might therefore branch into the robust mutex list of a different thread. This can cause two problems: 1) some mutexes held by the dead thread are not getting freed and 2) some mutexs held by a different thread are freed. The next point need to be read before calling handle_futex_death.

The new behaviour of CFS exposes a race which occurs if a switch is requested when vt_mode.mode is VT_PROCESS. The process with vc->vt_pid is signaled before vc->vt_newvt is set. This causes the switch to fail when triggered by the monitoing process because the target is still -1.

The comment being removed by this patch is incorrect and misleading. In the following situation: 1. load ... 2. store 1 -> X 3. wmb 4. rmb 5. load a <- Y 6. store ... 4 will only ensure ordering of 1 with 5. 3 will only ensure ordering of 2 with 6. Further, a CPU with strictly in-order stores will still only provide that 2 and 6 are ordered (effectively, it is the same as a weakly ordered CPU with wmb after every store). In all cases, 5 may still be executed before 2 is visible to other CPUs! The additional piece of the puzzle that mb() provides is the store/load ordering, which fundamentally cannot be achieved with any combination of rmb()s and wmb()s. This can be an unexpected result if one expected any sort of global ordering guarantee to barriers (eg. that the barriers themselves are sequentially consistent with other types of barriers). However sfence or lfence barriers need only provide an ordering partial ordering of memory operations -- Consider that wmb may be implemented as nothing more than inserting a special barrier entry in the store queue, or, in the case of x86, it can be a noop as the store queue is in order. And an rmb may be implemented as a directive to prevent subsequent loads only so long as their are no previous outstanding loads (while there could be stores still in store queues). I can actually see the occasional load/store being reordered around lfence on my core2. That doesn't prove my above assertions, but it does show the comment is wrong (unless my program is -- can send it out by request). So: mb() and smp_mb() always have and always will require a full mfence or lock prefixed instruction on x86. And we should remove this comment.

Linas reported me that some machines were crashing at boot in quirk_e100_interrupt. It appears that this quirk is doing an ioremap directly on a PCI BAR value, which isn't legal and will cause all sorts of bad things to happen on architectures where PCI BARs don't directly match processor bus addresses. This fixes it by using the proper PCI resources instead which is possible since the quirk has been moved by a previous commit to happen late enough for that.
