2007-07-22x86: i386-show-unhandled-signals-v3Masoud Asgharifard Sharbiani
This patch makes the i386 behave the same way that x86_64 does when a segfault happens. A line gets printed to the kernel log so that tools that need to check for failures can behave more uniformly between debug.show_unhandled_signals sysctl variable to 0 (or by doing echo 0 > /proc/sys/debug/exception-trace) Also, all of the lines being printed are now using printk_ratelimit() to deny the ability of DoS from a local user with a program like the following: main() { while (1) if (!fork()) *(int *)0 = 0; } This new revision also includes the fix that Andrew did which got rid of new sysctl that was added to the system in earlier versions of this. Also, 'show-unhandled-signals' sysctl has been renamed back to the old 'exception-trace' to avoid breakage of people's scripts. AK: Enabling by default for i386 will be likely controversal, but let's see what happens AK: Really folks, before complaining just fix your segfaults AK: I bet this will find a lot of silent issues Signed-off-by: Masoud Sharbiani <masouds@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> [ Personally, I've found the complaints useful on x86-64, so I'm all for this.

2007-07-21[SPARC32]: Fix rounding errors in ndelay/udelay implementation.Mark Fortescue
__ndelay and __udelay have not been delayung >= specified time. The problem with __ndelay has been tacked down to the rounding of the multiplier constant. By changing this, delays > app 18us are correctly calculated. The problem with __udelay has also been tracked down to rounding issues. Changing the multiplier constant (to match that used in sparc64) corrects for large delays and adding in a rounding constant corrects for trunctaion errors in the claculations. Many short delays will return without looping. This is not an error as there is the fixed delay of doing all the maths to calculate the loop count.

2007-07-21x86-64: introduce struct pci_sysdata to facilitate sharing of ->sysdataMuli Ben-Yehuda
This patch introduces struct pci_sysdata to x86 and x86-64, and converts the existing two users (NUMA, Calgary) to use it.

2007-07-21i386: fix iounmap's use of vm_struct's size fieldJeremy Fitzhardinge
get_vm_area always returns an area with an adjacent guard page. That guard page is included in vm_struct.size. iounmap uses vm_struct.size to determine how much address space needs to have change_page_attr applied to it, which will BUG if applied to the guard page. This patch adds a helper function - get_vm_area_size() in linux/vmalloc.h - to return the actual size of a vm area, and uses it to make iounmap do the right thing. There are probably other places which should be using get_vm_area_size(). Thanks to Dave Young <hidave.darkstar@gmail.com> for debugging the problem.

e820_hole_size() now uses the newly extracted helper function, e820_find_active_region(), to determine the size of usable RAM in a range of PFN's. This was previously broken because of two reasons: - The start and end PFN's of each e820 entry were not properly rounded prior to excluding those entries in the range, and - Entries smaller than a page were not properly excluded from being accumulated. This resulted in emulated nodes being incorrectly mapped to ranges that were completely reserved and not candidates for being registered as active ranges.

In the second kernel, when mem is allocated for GART, it will do the memset for clear, it will cause restart, because some device still used that for dma. solution will be: in second kernel: disable that at first before we try to allocate mem for it. or in the first kernel: do disable that before shutdown.

Killing just one of the process threads can leave the application in a bad state, whereas killing the entire process group would allow for the application to restart, or otherwise handled, and makes it very obvious that something has gone wrong.

2007-07-21i386: do not restore reserved memory after hibernationRafael J. Wysocki
On some systems the ACPI NVS area is located in the first 1 MB of RAM and it is overwritten by the i386 code during the restore after hibernation. This confuses the ACPI platform firmware that doesn't update the AC adapter status appropriately as a result (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7995). The solution is to register the reserved memory in the first 1 MB as 'nosave', so that swsusp doesn't touch it during the restore. Also, this has been done on x86_64 for a long time now, so this patch makes the i386 restore code behave like the x86_64 one. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fix] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2007-07-21i386: fix section mismatch warning in intel_cacheinfoSam Ravnborg
Fix following warning: WARNING: arch/i386/kernel/built-in.o(.init.text+0x3818): Section mismatch: reference to .exit.text:cache_remove_dev (between 'cacheinfo_cpu_callback' and 'cache_sysfs_init') It points out that a function marked __cpuexit is calling a function marked __cpuinit => oops. The call happens only in an error-condition which may explain why we have not seen it before. The offending function was not used anywhere else - so marked it __cpuexit. Note: This warning triggers only with a local copy of modpost but that version will soon be pushed out.
