When handling writes to /proc/irq, current code is re-programming rte
entries directly. This is not recommended and could potentially cause
chipset's to lockup, or cause missing interrupts.
CONFIG_IRQ_BALANCE does this correctly, where it re-programs only when the
interrupt is pending. The same needs to be done for /proc/irq handling as well.
Otherwise user space irq balancers are really not doing the right thing.
- Changed pending_irq_balance_cpumask to pending_irq_migrate_cpumask for
lack of a generic name.
- added move_irq out of IRQ_BALANCE, and added this same to X86_64
- Added new proc handler for write, so we can do deferred write at irq
handling time.
- Display of /proc/irq/XX/smp_affinity used to display CPU_MASKALL, instead
it now shows only active cpu masks, or exactly what was set.
- Provided a common move_irq implementation, instead of duplicating
when using generic irq framework.
Tested on i386/x86_64 and ia64 with CONFIG_PCI_MSI turned on and off.
Tested UP builds as well.
MSI testing: tbd: I have cards, need to look for a x-over cable, although I
did test an earlier version of this patch. Will test in a couple days.

It has been reported that the way Linux handles NODEFER for signals is
not consistent with the way other Unix boxes handle it. I've written a
program to test the behavior of how this flag affects signals and had
several reports from people who ran this on various Unix boxes,
confirming that Linux seems to be unique on the way this is handled.
The way NODEFER affects signals on other Unix boxes is as follows:
1) If NODEFER is set, other signals in sa_mask are still blocked.
2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal is
still blocked. (Note: this is the behavior of all tested but Linux _and_
NetBSD 2.0 *).
The way NODEFER affects signals on Linux:
1) If NODEFER is set, other signals are _not_ blocked regardless of
sa_mask (Even NetBSD doesn't do this).
2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal being
handled is not blocked.
The patch converts signal handling in all current Linux architectures to
the way most Unix boxes work.
Unix boxes that were tested: DU4, AIX 5.2, Irix 6.5, NetBSD 2.0, SFU
3.5 on WinXP, AIX 5.3, Mac OSX, and of course Linux 2.6.13-rcX.
* NetBSD was the only other Unix to behave like Linux on point #2. The
main concern was brought up by point #1 which even NetBSD isn't like
Linux. So with this patch, we leave NetBSD as the lonely one that
behaves differently here with #2.

Currently, region numbers are defined in several files, with several
names. For example, we have REGION_KERNEL in asm/page.h and
RGN_KERNEL in pgtable.h
We also have address definitions that should depend on the
RGN_XXX macros, but are currently just long constants.
The following patch reorganises all the definitions so that they have
the same form (RGN_XXX), are in one place, and that addresses that
depend on RGN_XXX are derived from them.
(This is a necessary but not sufficient patch to allow UML-like
operation on IA64).
Thanks to David Mosberger for catching the change I missed in mmu_context.h.

Both copy_page.o and copy_page_mck.o are build for Itanium2

Patch to support P-state transitions on ia64. This driver is based on ACPI,
and uses the ACPI processor driver interface to find out the P-state support
information for the processor. This driver plugs into generic cpufreq
infrastructure.
Once this driver is loaded successfully, ondemand/userspace governor can be
used to change the CPU frequency dynamically based on load or on request from
userspace process.

Fix swiotlb sizing to match what the comments and the kernel
parameters documentation indicate. Given a default 16k page size kernel
(ia64) and a 2k swiotlb page size, we're off by a multiple of 8 trying
to size the swiotlb. When specified on the boot line, the swiotlb is
made 8x bigger than requested. When left to the default value, it's 8x
smaller than the comments indicate. For x86_64 the multiplier would be
2x. The patch below fixes this. Now, what's a good default swiotlb
size? Apparently we don't really need 64MB.

Thanks to Stephane, we've now worked out the real cause of the
`Linux will not boot on simulator' problem. Turns out it's a stack
overflow because the stack pointer wasn't being initialised properly
in boot_head.S (it was being initialised to the lowest instead of the
highest address of the stack, so the first push started to overwrite
data in the BSS).

The main issue is that bus_fixup calls may potentially call
functions that require a valid bus->sysdata pointer. Since
this is the case, we must set the bus->sysdata pointer before
calling the bus_fixup functions. The remaining changes are
simple fixes to make sure memory is cleaned up in the function.

After building a fresh tree with gcc 4 I can't boot the simulator as
the bootloader loader dies with
loading /home/ianw/kerntest/kerncomp//build/sim_defconfig/vmlinux...
failed to read phdr
After some investigation I believe this is do with differences between
the alignment of variables on the stack between gcc 3 and 4 and the
ski simulator. If you trace through with the simulator you can see
that the disk_stat structure value returned from the SSC_WAIT_COMPLETION
call seems to be only half loaded. I guess it doesn't like the alignment
of the input.

This removes sys_set_zone_reclaim() for now. While i'm sure Martin is
trying to solve a real problem, we must not hard-code an incomplete and
insufficient approach into a syscall, because syscalls are pretty much
for eternity. I am quite strongly convinced that this syscall must not
hit v2.6.13 in its current form.
Firstly, the syscall lacks basic syscall design: e.g. it allows the
global setting of VM policy for unprivileged users. (!) [ Imagine an
Oracle installation and a SAP installation on the same NUMA box fighting
over the 'optimal' setting for this flag. What will they do? Will they
try to set the flag to their own preferred value every second or so? ]
Secondly, it was added based on a single datapoint from Martin:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-mm&m=111763597218177&w=2
where Martin characterizes the numbers the following way:
' Run-to-run variability for "make -j" is huge, so these numbers aren't
terribly useful except to see that with reclaim the benchmark still
finishes in a reasonable amount of time. '
in other words: the fundamental problem has likely not been solved, only
a tendential move into the right direction has been observed, and a
handful of numbers were picked out of a set of hugely variable results,
without showing the variability data. How much variance is there
run-to-run?
I'd really suggest to first walk the walk and see what's needed to get
stable & predictable kernel compilation numbers on that NUMA box, before
adding random syscalls to tune a particular aspect of the VM ... which
approach might not even matter once the whole picture has been analyzed
and understood!
The third, most important point is that the syscall exposes VM tuning
internals in a completely unstructured way. What sense does it make to
have a _GLOBAL_ per-node setting for 'should we go to another node for
reclaim'? If then it might make sense to do this per-app, via numalib or
so.
The change is minimalistic in that it doesnt remove the syscall and the
underlying infrastructure changes, only the user-visible changes. We
could perhaps add a CAP_SYS_ADMIN-only sysctl for this hack, a'ka
/proc/sys/vm/swappiness, but even that looks quite counterproductive
when the generic approach is that we are trying to reduce the number of
external factors in the VM balance picture.

unwind.c can read the wrong unat bits from switch_stack.
sw->caller_unat is the value of ar.unat when the task was blocked.
sw->ar_unat is the value of ar.unat after doing st8.spill for r4-7.
IOW, ar_unat is caller_unat with 4 bits changed.
unw_access_gr() uses sw->ar_unat for r4-7 (correct), but it also uses
sw->ar_unat for other scratch registers (incorrect). sw->ar_unat
should only be used for r4-7, everything else should use
sw->caller_unat, unless modified by unwind info. Using sw->ar_unat
risks picking up the 4 bits that were overwritten when r4-7 were saved.
Also this line is wrong
unw.sw_off[unw.preg_index[UNW_REG_PFS]] = SW(AR_UNAT);
and should be
unw.sw_off[unw.preg_index[UNW_REG_PFS]] = SW(AR_PFS);
