S4 suspend to disk will disable GPE's permanently
because acpi_gpe_sleep_prepare() does not have
a counterpart at resume time. Thus, those devices
became unavailable for wakeup from subsequent
S3 suspend-to-ram.
Here acpi_gpe_sleep_prepare() is removed, and upon suspend
acpi_enable_wakeup_device() gets its functionality.
Upon resume, acpi_disable_wakeup_device() restores the state.

acpi_bus_generate_event() takes two strings out of passed device object.
SBS needs to supply these strings directly.

All the current page_mkwrite() implementations also set the page dirty. Which
results in the set_page_dirty_balance() call to _not_ call balance, because the
page is already found dirty.
This allows us to dirty a _lot_ of pages without ever hitting
balance_dirty_pages(). Not good (tm).
Force a balance call if ->page_mkwrite() was successful.

It turns out that there are a few other five-second timers in the
kernel, and if the timers get in sync, the load-average can get
artificially inflated by events that just happen to coincide.
So just offset the load average calculation it by a timer tick.
Noticed by Anders Boström, for whom the coincidence started triggering
on one of his machines with the JBD jiffies rounding code (JBD is one of
the subsystems that also end up using a 5-second timer by default).

It is ok to call prefetch() function with NULL argument, as specifically
commented in include/linux/prefetch.h. But in standard C, it is invalid
to dereference NULL pointer (see C99 standard 6.5.3.2 paragraph 4 and
note #84).
prefetch() has a memory reference for its argument.
Newer gcc versions (4.3 and above) will use that to conclude that "x"
argument is non-null and thus wreaking havok everywhere prefetch() was
inlined.
Fixed by removing cast and changing asm constraint.
[ It seems in theory gcc 4.2 could miscompile this too; although no
cases known. In 2.6.24 we should probably switch to
__builtin_prefetch() instead, but this is a simpler fix for now.

Add minimum support for the Blackfin relocations, since we don't have
enough space in each reloc. The idea is to store a value with one
relocation so that subsequent ones can access it.
Actually, this patch is required for Blackfin. Currently if BINFMT_FLAT is
enabled, git-tree kernel will fail to compile.

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.

Based upon a report and initial patch by Peter Lieven.
tcp4_md5sig_key and tcp6_md5sig_key need to start with
the exact same members as tcp_md5sig_key. Because they
are both cast to that type by tcp_v{4,6}_md5_do_lookup().
Unfortunately tcp{4,6}_md5sig_key use a u16 for the key
length instead of a u8, which is what tcp_md5sig_key
uses. This just so happens to work by accident on
little-endian, but on big-endian it doesn't.
Instead of casting, just place tcp_md5sig_key as the first member of
the address-family specific structures, adjust the access sites, and
kill off the ugly casts.

As noted by Dave Jones:
"Linus, please revert the above cset. It doesn't seem to be
necessary (it was added to fix a miscompile in 'make allnoconfig'
which doesn't seem to be repeatable with it reverted) and actively
breaks the ARM SA1100 framebuffer driver."

This reverts commit e66485d747505e9d960b864fc6c37f8b2afafaf0, since
Rafael Wysocki noticed that the change only works for his in -mm, not in
mainline (and that both "noapictimer" _and_ "apicmaintimer" are broken
on his hardware, but that's apparently not a regression, just a symptom
of the same issue that causes the automatic apic timer disable to not
work).
It turns out that it really doesn't work correctly on x86-64, since
x86-64 doesn't use the generic clock events for timers yet.
Thanks to Rafal for testing, and here's the ugly details on x86-64 as
per Thomas:
"I just looked into the code and the logic vs. noapictimer on SMP is
completely broken.
On i386 the noapictimer option not only disables the local APIC
timer, it also registers the CPUs for broadcasting via IPI on SMP
systems.
The x86-64 code uses the broadcast only when the local apic timer is
active, i.e. "noapictimer" is not on the command line. This defeats
the whole purpose of "noapictimer". It should be there to make boxen
work, where the local APIC timer actually has a hardware problem,
e.g. the nx6325.
The current implementation of x86_64 only fixes the ACPI c-states
related problem where the APIC timer stops in C3(2), nothing else.
On nx6325 and other AMD X2 equipped systems which have the C1E
enabled we run into the following:
PIT keeps jiffies (and the system) running, but the local APIC timer
interrupts can get out of sync due to this C1E effect.
I don't think this is a critical problem, but it is wrong
nevertheless.
I think it's safe to revert the C1E patch and postpone the fix to the
clock events conversion."
On further reflection, Thomas noted:
"It's even worse than I thought on the first check:
"noapictimer" on the command line of an SMP box prevents _ONLY_ the
boot CPU apic timer from being used. But the secondary CPU is still
unconditionally setting up the APIC timer and uses the non
calibrated variable calibration_result, which is of course 0, to
setup the APIC timer. Wreckage guaranteed."
so we'll just have to wait for the x86 merge to hopefully fix this up
for x86-64.

commit 3556ddfa9284a86a59a9b78fe5894430f6ab4eef titled
[PATCH] x86-64: Disable local APIC timer use on AMD systems with C1E
solves a problem with AMD dual core laptops e.g. HP nx6325 (Turion 64
X2) with C1E enabled:
When both cores go into idle at the same time, then the system switches
into C1E state, which is basically the same as C3. This stops the local
apic timer.
This was debugged right after the dyntick merge on i386 and despite the
patch title it fixes only the 32 bit path.
x86_64 is still missing this fix. It seems that mainline is not really
affected by this issue, as the PIT is running and keeps jiffies
incrementing, but that's just waiting for trouble.
-mm suffers from this problem due to the x86_64 high resolution timer
patches.
This is a quick and dirty port of the i386 code to x86_64.
I spent quite a time with Rafael to debug the -mm / hrt wreckage until
someone pointed us to this. I really had forgotten that we debugged this
half a year ago already.
Sigh, is it just me or is there something yelling arch/x86 into my ear?

If ADDIP is enabled, when an ASCONF chunk is received with ASCONF
paramter length set to zero, this will cause infinite loop.
By the way, if an malformed ASCONF chunk is received, will cause
processing to access memory without verifying.
This is because of not check the validity of parameters in ASCONF chunk.
This patch fixed this.

device_suspend() calls ACPI suspend functions, which seems to have undesired
side effects on lower idle C-states. It took me some time to realize that
especially the VAIO BIOSes (both Andrews jinxed UP and my elfstruck SMP one)
show this effect. I'm quite sure that other bug reports against suspend/resume
about turning the system into a brick have the same root cause.
After fishing in the dark for quite some time, I realized that removing the ACPI
processor module before suspend (this removes the lower C-state functionality)
made the problem disappear. Interestingly enough the propability of having a
bricked box is influenced by various factors (interrupts, size of the ram image,
...). Even adding a bunch of printks in the wrong places made the problem go
away. The previous periodic tick implementation simply pampered over the
problem, which explains why the dyntick / clockevents changes made this more
prominent.
We avoid complex functionality during the boot process and we have to do the
same during suspend/resume. It is a similar scenario and equaly fragile.
Add suspend / resume functions to the ACPI processor code and disable the lower
idle C-states across suspend/resume. Fall back to the default idle
implementation (halt) instead.

This reverts commit 34feb2c83beb3bdf13535a36770f7e50b47ef299.
Suresh Siddha points out that this one breaks the fundamental
requirement that you cannot free page table pages before the TLB caches
are flushed. The quicklists do not give the same kinds of guarantees
that the mmu_gather structure does, at least not in NUMA configurations.

This simplifies signalfd code, by avoiding it to remain attached to the
sighand during its lifetime.
In this way, the signalfd remain attached to the sighand only during
poll(2) (and select and epoll) and read(2). This also allows to remove
all the custom "tsk == current" checks in kernel/signal.c, since
dequeue_signal() will only be called by "current".
I think this is also what Ben was suggesting time ago.
The external effect of this, is that a thread can extract only its own
private signals and the group ones. I think this is an acceptable
behaviour, in that those are the signals the thread would be able to
fetch w/out signalfd.

Recent changes to the timekeeping code broke support for the PowerPC 601
processor which doesn't have the usual timebase facility but a slightly
different thing called (yuck) the RTC.
This fixes it, boot tested on an old 601 based PowerMac 7200.

This patch proposes fixes to the reference counting of memory policy in the
page allocation paths and in show_numa_map(). Extracted from my "Memory
Policy Cleanups and Enhancements" series as stand-alone.
Shared policy lookup [shmem] has always added a reference to the policy,
but this was never unrefed after page allocation or after formatting the
numa map data.
Default system policy should not require additional ref counting, nor
should the current task's task policy. However, show_numa_map() calls
get_vma_policy() to examine what may be [likely is] another task's policy.
The latter case needs protection against freeing of the policy.
This patch adds a reference count to a mempolicy returned by
get_vma_policy() when the policy is a vma policy or another task's
mempolicy. Again, shared policy is already reference counted on lookup. A
matching "unref" [__mpol_free()] is performed in alloc_page_vma() for
shared and vma policies, and in show_numa_map() for shared and another
task's mempolicy. We can call __mpol_free() directly, saving an admittedly
inexpensive inline NULL test, because we know we have a non-NULL policy.
Handling policy ref counts for hugepages is a bit trickier.
huge_zonelist() returns a zone list that might come from a shared or vma
'BIND policy. In this case, we should hold the reference until after the
huge page allocation in dequeue_hugepage(). The patch modifies
huge_zonelist() to return a pointer to the mempolicy if it needs to be
unref'd after allocation.

It turned out, that the user namespace is released during the do_exit() in
exit_task_namespaces(), but the struct user_struct is released only during the
put_task_struct(), i.e. MUCH later.
On debug kernels with poisoned slabs this will cause the oops in
uid_hash_remove() because the head of the chain, which resides inside the
struct user_namespace, will be already freed and poisoned.
Since the uid hash itself is required only when someone can search it, i.e.
when the namespace is alive, we can safely unhash all the user_struct-s from
it during the namespace exiting. The subsequent free_uid() will complete the
user_struct destruction.
For example simple program
#include <sched.h>
char stack[2 * 1024 * 1024];
int f(void *foo)
{
return 0;
}
int main(void)
{
clone(f, stack + 1 * 1024 * 1024, 0x10000000, 0);
return 0;
}
run on kernel with CONFIG_USER_NS turned on will oops the
kernel immediately.
This was spotted during OpenVZ kernel testing.

As noted by Al Viro, when we try to call prom_set_trap_table()
in the SMP trampoline code we try to take the PROM call spinlock
which doesn't work because the current thread pointer isn't
valid yet and lockdep depends upon that being correct.
Furthermore, we cannot set the current thread pointer register
because it can't be properly dereferenced until we return from
prom_set_trap_table(). Kernel TLB misses only work after that
call.
So do the PROM call to set the trap table directly instead of
going through the OBP library C code, and thus avoid the lock
altogether.
These calls are guarenteed to be serialized fully.
Since there are now no calls to the prom_set_trap_table{_sun4v}()
library functions, they can be deleted.

This patch adds an optimised version of skb_cow that avoids the copy if
the header can be modified even if the rest of the payload is cloned.
This can be used in encapsulating paths where we only need to modify the
header. As it is, this can be used in PPPOE and bridging.

Since the sctp_sockaddr_entry is now RCU enabled as part of
the patch to synchronize sctp_localaddr_list, it makes sense to
change all handling of these entries to RCU. This includes the
sctp_bind_addrs structure and it's list of bound addresses.
This list is currently protected by an external rw_lock and that
looks like an overkill. There are only 2 writers to the list:
bind()/bindx() calls, and BH processing of ASCONF-ACK chunks.
These are already seriealized via the socket lock, so they will
not step on each other. These are also relatively rare, so we
should be good with RCU.
The readers are varied and they are easily converted to RCU.

sctp_localaddr_list is modified dynamically via NETDEV_UP
and NETDEV_DOWN events, but there is not synchronization
between writer (even handler) and readers. As a result,
the readers can access an entry that has been freed and
crash the sytem.
