2008-04-30ACPI: Fix acpi_processor_idle and idle= boot parameters interactionVenkatesh Pallipadi
acpi_processor_idle and "idle=" boot parameter interaction is broken. The problem is that, at boot time acpi driver is checking for "idle=" boot option and not registering the acpi idle handler. But, when there is a CST changed callback (typically when switching AC <-> battery or suspend-resume) there are no checks for boot_option_idle_override and acpi idle handler tries to get installed with nasty side effects. With CPU_IDLE configured this issue causes results in a nasty oops on CST change callback and without CPU_IDLE there is no oops, but boot option of "idle=" gets ignored and acpi idle handler gets installed. Change the behavior to not do anything in acpi idle handler when there is a "idle=" boot option. Note that the problem is only there when "idle=" boot option is used.

2008-04-30revert "memory hotplug: allocate usemap on the section with pgdat"Andrew Morton
This: commit 86f6dae1377523689bd8468fed2f2dd180fc0560 Author: Yasunori Goto <y-goto@jp.fujitsu.com> Date: Mon Apr 28 02:13:33 2008 -0700 memory hotplug: allocate usemap on the section with pgdat Usemaps are allocated on the section which has pgdat by this. Because usemap size is very small, many other sections usemaps are allocated on only one page. If a section has usemap, it can't be removed until removing other sections. This dependency is not desirable for memory removing. Pgdat has similar feature. When a section has pgdat area, it must be the last section for removing on the node. So, if section A has pgdat and section B has usemap for section A, Both sections can't be removed due to dependency each other. To solve this issue, this patch collects usemap on same section with pgdat. If other sections doesn't have any dependency, this section will be able to be removed finally.

However set_page_dirty() is used to set the entire page dirty, wheras in this case, only part of the page was dirty, and it also was not uptodate. Marking the whole page dirty with set_page_dirty would lead to corruption or unresolvable conditions -- a dirty && !uptodate page and dirty && !uptodate buffers. Possibly we could just ClearPageDirty(oldpage); SetPageDirty(newpage); however in the interests of keeping the change minimal...

2008-04-30infrastructure to debug (dynamic) objectsThomas Gleixner
We can see an ever repeating problem pattern with objects of any kind in the kernel: 1) freeing of active objects 2) reinitialization of active objects Both problems can be hard to debug because the crash happens at a point where we have no chance to decode the root cause anymore. One problem spot are kernel timers, where the detection of the problem often happens in interrupt context and usually causes the machine to panic. While working on a timer related bug report I had to hack specialized code into the timer subsystem to get a reasonable hint for the root cause. This debug hack was fine for temporary use, but far from a mergeable solution due to the intrusiveness into the timer code. The code further lacked the ability to detect and report the root cause instantly and keep the system operational. Keeping the system operational is important to get hold of the debug information without special debugging aids like serial consoles and special knowledge of the bug reporter. The problems described above are not restricted to timers, but timers tend to expose it usually in a full system crash. Other objects are less explosive, but the symptoms caused by such mistakes can be even harder to debug. Instead of creating specialized debugging code for the timer subsystem a generic infrastructure is created which allows developers to verify their code and provides an easy to enable debug facility for users in case of trouble. The debugobjects core code keeps track of operations on static and dynamic objects by inserting them into a hashed list and sanity checking them on object operations and provides additional checks whenever kernel memory is freed. The tracked object operations are: - initializing an object - adding an object to a subsystem list - deleting an object from a subsystem list Each operation is sanity checked before the operation is executed and the subsystem specific code can provide a fixup function which allows to prevent the damage of the operation. When the sanity check triggers a warning message and a stack trace is printed. The list of operations can be extended if the need arises. For now it's limited to the requirements of the first user (timers). The core code enqueues the objects into hash buckets. The hash index is generated from the address of the object to simplify the lookup for the check on kfree/vfree. Each bucket has it's own spinlock to avoid contention on a global lock. The debug code can be compiled in without being active. The runtime overhead is minimal and could be optimized by asm alternatives. A kernel command line option enables the debugging code. Thanks to Ingo Molnar for review, suggestions and cleanup patches.

2008-04-30slab: add a flag to prevent debug_free checks on a kmem_cacheThomas Gleixner
This is a preperatory patch for the debugobjects infrastructure. The flag prevents debug_free checks on kmem_caches. This is necessary to avoid resursive calls into a debug mechanism which uses a kmem_cache itself.

Also, change the variable names used in the min/max macros to avoid shadowed variable warnings when min/max min_t/max_t are nested. Small formatting changes to make all the macros have a similar form.

2008-04-30alloc_uid: cleanupAndrew Morton
Use kmem_cache_zalloc(), remove large amounts of initialisation code and ifdeffery. Note: this assumes that memset(*atomic_t, 0) correctly initialises the atomic_t. This is true for all present archtiectures and if it becomes false for a future architecture then we'll need to make large changes all over the place anyway.
