2009-04-15acpi-cpufreq: fix 'smp_call_function_many()' confusionLinus Torvalds
It turns out that 'smp_call_function_many()' doesn't work at all like 'smp_call_function_single()', and my change to Andrew's patch to use it rather than a loop over all CPU's acpi-cpufreq doesn't work. My bad. 'smp_call_function_many()' has two "features" (aka "documented bugs"): (a) it needs to be called with preemption disabled, because it uses smp_processor_id() without guarding the CPU lookup with 'get_cpu()' and 'put_cpu()' like the 'single' variant does. (b) even if the current CPU is part of the CPU mask, it won't do the call on that CPU. Still, we're better off trying to use 'smp_call_function_many()' than looping over CPU's, since it at least in theory allows us to use a broadcast IPI and do it all in parallel. So let's just work around the silly semantic bugs in that function.

2009-04-14x86 microcode: revert some work_on_cpuHugh Dickins
Revert part of af5c820a3169e81af869c113e18ec7588836cd50 ("x86: cpumask: use work_on_cpu in arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c") That change is causing only one Intel CPU's microcode to be updated e.g. microcode: CPU3 updated from revision 0x9 to 0x17, date = 2005-04-22 where before it announced that also for CPU0 and CPU1 and CPU2. We cannot use work_on_cpu() in the CONFIG_MICROCODE_OLD_INTERFACE code, because Intel's request_microcode_user() involves a copy_from_user() from /sbin/microcode_ctl, which therefore needs to be on that CPU at the time.

In commit 51dcdfec6a274afc1c6fce180d582add9ff512c0 ("parport: Use the PCI IRQ if offered") parport_pc_probe_port() gained an irqflags arg. This isn't being supplied on powerpc.

2009-04-10x86, intr-remap: fix eoi for interrupt remapping without x2apicWeidong Han
To simplify level irq migration in the presence of interrupt-remapping, Suresh used a virtual vector (io-apic pin number) to eliminate io-apic RTE modification. Level triggered interrupt will appear as an edge to the local apic cpu but still as level to the IO-APIC. So in addition to do the local apic EOI, it still needs to do IO-APIC directed EOI to clear the remote IRR bit in the IO-APIC RTE. Pls refer to Suresh's patch for more details (commit 0280f7c416c652a2fd95d166f52b199ae61122c0). Now interrupt remapping is decoupled from x2apic, it also needs to do the directed EOI for apic. Otherwise, apic interrupts won't work correctly.

2009-04-09mutex: have non-spinning mutexes on s390 by defaultHeiko Carstens
Impact: performance regression fix for s390 The adaptive spinning mutexes will not always do what one would expect on virtualized architectures like s390. Especially the cpu_relax() loop in mutex_spin_on_owner might hurt if the mutex holding cpu has been scheduled away by the hypervisor. We would end up in a cpu_relax() loop when there is no chance that the state of the mutex changes until the target cpu has been scheduled again by the hypervisor. For that reason we should change the default behaviour to no-spin on s390. We do have an instruction which allows to yield the current cpu in favour of a different target cpu. Also we have an instruction which allows us to figure out if the target cpu is physically backed. However we need to do some performance tests until we can come up with a solution that will do the right thing on s390.

2009-04-09tracing/syscalls: use a dedicated file headerFrederic Weisbecker
Impact: fix build warnings and possibe compat misbehavior on IA64 Building a kernel on ia64 might trigger these ugly build warnings: CC arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.o In file included from arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.c:55: arch/ia64/ia32/ia32priv.h:290:1: warning: "elf_check_arch" redefined In file included from include/linux/elf.h:7, from include/linux/module.h:14, from include/linux/ftrace.h:8, from include/linux/syscalls.h:68, from arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.c:18: arch/ia64/include/asm/elf.h:19:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition [...] sys_ia32.c includes linux/syscalls.h which in turn includes linux/ftrace.h to import the syscalls tracing prototypes. But including ftrace.h can pull too much things for a low level file, especially on ia64 where the ia32 private headers conflict with higher level headers. Now we isolate the syscall tracing headers in their own lightweight file.
