* 'release' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/aegl/linux-2.6:
[IA64] Fix large MCA bootmem allocation
[IA64] Simplify cpu_idle_wait
[IA64] Synchronize RBS on PTRACE_ATTACH
[IA64] Synchronize kernel RSE to user-space and back
[IA64] Rename TIF_PERFMON_WORK back to TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME
[IA64] Wire up timerfd_{create,settime,gettime} syscalls
|

The MCA code allocates bootmem memory for NR_CPUS, regardless
of how many cpus the system actually has. This change allocates
memory only for cpus that actually exist.
On my test system with NR_CPUS = 1024, reserved memory was reduced by 130944k.
Before: Memory: 27886976k/28111168k available (8282k code, 242304k reserved, 5928k data, 1792k init)
After: Memory: 28017920k/28111168k available (8282k code, 111360k reserved, 5928k data, 1792k init)

When attaching to a stopped process, the RSE must be explicitly

This is base kernel patch for ptrace RSE bug. It's basically a backport
from the utrace RSE patch I sent out several weeks ago. please review.
when a thread is stopped (ptraced), debugger might change thread's user
stack (change memory directly), and we must avoid the RSE stored in
kernel to override user stack (user space's RSE is newer than kernel's
in the case). To workaround the issue, we copy kernel RSE to user RSE
before the task is stopped, so user RSE has updated data. we then copy
user RSE to kernel after the task is resummed from traced stop and
kernel will use the newer RSE to return to user.

Since the RSE synchronization will need a TIF_ flag, but all
work-to-be-done bits are already used, so we have to multiplex
TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME again.

This patch fixes the configuration dependencies in the vmcoreinfo data.
i386's "node_data" is defined in arch/x86/mm/discontig_32.c,
and x86_64's one is defined in arch/x86/mm/numa_64.c.
They depend on CONFIG_NUMA:
arch/x86/mm/Makefile_32:7
obj-$(CONFIG_NUMA) += discontig_32.o
arch/x86/mm/Makefile_64:7
obj-$(CONFIG_NUMA) += numa_64.o
ia64's "pgdat_list" is defined in arch/ia64/mm/discontig.c,
and it depends on CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM and CONFIG_SPARSEMEM:
arch/ia64/mm/Makefile:9-10
obj-$(CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM) += discontig.o
obj-$(CONFIG_SPARSEMEM) += discontig.o
ia64's "node_memblk" is defined in arch/ia64/mm/numa.c,
and it depends on CONFIG_NUMA:

This patchset is for the vmcoreinfo data.
The vmcoreinfo data has the minimum debugging information only for dump
filtering. makedumpfile (dump filtering command) gets it to distinguish
unnecessary pages, and makedumpfile creates a small dumpfile.
This patch:
VMCOREINFO_SIZE() should be renamed VMCOREINFO_STRUCT_SIZE() since it's always
returning the size of the struct with a given name. This change would allow
VMCOREINFO_TYPEDEF_SIZE() to simply become VMCOREINFO_SIZE() since it need not
be used exclusively for typedefs.

This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the
BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions
between crashkernel area and already used memory.
This patch:
Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE.
If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already
has been reserved in the past. This is to avoid conflicts.
Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition
inside reserve_bootmem_core().

calibrate_delay() must be __cpuinit, not __{dev,}init.
I've verified that this is correct for all users.
While doing the latter, I also did the following cleanups:
- remove pointless additional prototypes in C files
- ensure all users #include <linux/delay.h>
This fixes the following section mismatches with CONFIG_HOTPLUG=n,
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y:

This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch:
int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags);
int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags,
const struct itimerspec *utmr,
struct itimerspec *otmr);
int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr);
The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd. The "clockid"
parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME.
The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally
retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not
NULL).
The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit
is set in the "flags" parameter. Otherwise it's a relative time.
The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or
{0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet.
Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are
supported (with the same interface). Here's a simple test program I used to
exercise the new timerfd APIs:

Linus:
On the per-architecture side, I do think it would be better to *not* have
internal architecture knowledge in a generic file, and as such a line like
depends on X86_32 || IA64 || PPC || S390 || SPARC64 || X86_64 || AVR32
really shouldn't exist in a file like kernel/Kconfig.instrumentation.
It would be much better to do
depends on ARCH_SUPPORTS_KPROBES
in that generic file, and then architectures that do support it would just
have a
bool ARCH_SUPPORTS_KPROBES
default y
in *their* architecture files. That would seem to be much more logical,
and is readable both for arch maintainers *and* for people who have no
clue - and don't care - about which architecture is supposed to support
which interface...
Changelog:
Actually, I know I gave this as the magic incantation, but now that I see
it, I realize that I should have told you to just use
config KPROBES_SUPPORT
def_bool y
instead, which is a bit denser.
We seem to use both kinds of syntax for these things, but this is really
what "def_bool" is there for...
- Use HAVE_KPROBES
- Use a select
- Yet another update :
Moving to HAVE_* now.
- Update ARM for kprobes support.

percpu_modcopy() is defined multiple times in arch files. However, the only
user is module.c. Put a static definition into module.c and remove
the definitions from the arch files.

With the sg table code, every SCSI driver is now either chain capable
or broken (or has sg_tablesize set so chaining is never activated), so
there's no need to have a check in the host template.
Also tidy up the code by moving the scatterlist size defines into the
SCSI includes and permit the last entry of the scatterlist pools not
to be a power of two.

- add support for PER_CPU_ATTRIBUTES
- fix generic smp percpu_modcopy to use per_cpu_offset() macro.
Add the ability to use generic/percpu even if the arch needs to override
several aspects of its operations. This will enable the use of generic
percpu.h for all arches.
An arch may define:
__per_cpu_offset Do not use the generic pointer array. Arch must
define per_cpu_offset(cpu) (used by x86_64, s390).
__my_cpu_offset Can be defined to provide an optimized way to determine
the offset for variables of the currently executing
processor. Used by ia64, x86_64, x86_32, sparc64, s/390.
SHIFT_PTR(ptr, offset) If an arch defines it then special handling
of pointer arithmentic may be implemented. Used
by s/390.
(Some of these special percpu arch implementations may be later consolidated
so that there are less cases to deal with.)

The use of the __GENERIC_PERCPU is a bit problematic since arches
may want to run their own percpu setup while using the generic
percpu definitions. Replace it through a kconfig variable.

The break_lock data structure and code for spinlocks is quite nasty.
Not only does it double the size of a spinlock but it changes locking to
a potentially less optimal trylock.
Put all of that under CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK, and introduce a
__raw_spin_is_contended that uses the lock data itself to determine whether
there are waiters on the lock, to be used if CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK is
not set.
Rename need_lockbreak to spin_needbreak, make it use spin_is_contended to
decouple it from the spinlock implementation, and make it typesafe (rwlocks
do not have any need_lockbreak sites -- why do they even get bloated up
with that break_lock then?).
