2006-06-26[PATCH] Time: i386 Conversion - part 4: Remove Old timer_opts Codejohn stultz
Remove the old timers/timer_opts infrastructure which has been disabled. It is a fairly straightforward set of deletions Note that this does not provide any i386 clocksources, so you will only have the jiffies clocksource. To get full replacements for the code being removed here, the timeofday-clocks-i386 patch will be needed.

2006-06-26[PATCH] Time: i386 Conversion - part 3: Enable Generic Timekeepingjohn stultz
This converts the i386 arch to use the generic timeofday subsystem. It enabled the GENERIC_TIME option, disables the timer_opts code and other arch specific timekeeping code and reworks the delay code. While this patch enables the generic timekeeping, please note that this patch does not provide any i386 clocksource. Thus only the jiffies clocksource will be available. To get full replacements for the code being disabled here, the timeofday-clocks-i386 patch will needed.

2006-06-26[PATCH] Time: i386 Conversion - part 2: Rework TSC Supportjohn stultz
As part of the i386 conversion to the generic timekeeping infrastructure, this introduces a new tsc.c file. The code in this file replaces the TSC initialization, management and access code currently in timer_tsc.c (which will be removed) that we want to preserve. The code also introduces the following functionality: o tsc_khz: like cpu_khz but stores the TSC frequency on systems that do not change TSC frequency w/ CPU frequency o check/mark_tsc_unstable: accessor/modifier flag for TSC timekeeping usability o minor cleanups to calibration math. This patch also includes a one line __cpuinitdata fix from Zwane Mwaikambo.

2006-06-26[PATCH] Time: i386 Conversion - part 1: Move timer_pit.c to i8253.cjohn stultz
A simple cleanup for the i386 arch in preparation of moving to the generic timeofday infrastructure. It simply moves the PIT initialization code, locks, and other code we want to keep from some code from timer_pit.c (which will be removed) to i8253.c.

2006-06-26[PATCH] Time: Let user request precision from current_tick_length()john stultz
Change the current_tick_length() function so it takes an argument which specifies how much precision to return in shifted nanoseconds. This provides a simple way to convert between NTPs internal nanoseconds shifted by (SHIFT_SCALE - 10) to other shifted nanosecond units that are used by the clocksource abstraction.

2006-06-26[PATCH] oprofile: Fix unnecessary clevernessMarkus Armbruster
nmi_create_files() in arch/i386/oprofile/nmi_int.c depends on model->num_counters (number of performance counters) being less than 10. While this is currently the case, it's too clever by half. Other archs aren't quite as clever: they assume 100. I suggest to normalize them all to 1000.

2006-06-25[PATCH] Fix kdump Crash Kernel boot memory reservation for NUMA machinesAmul Shah
This patch will fix a boot memory reservation bug that trashes memory on the ES7000 when loading the kdump crash kernel. The code in arch/x86_64/kernel/setup.c to reserve boot memory for the crash kernel uses the non-numa aware "reserve_bootmem" function instead of the NUMA aware "reserve_bootmem_generic". I checked to make sure that no other function was using "reserve_bootmem" and found none, except the ones that had NUMA ifdef'ed out. I have tested this patch only on an ES7000 with NUMA on and off (numa=off) in a single (non-NUMA) and multi-cell (NUMA) configurations.

2006-06-25[PATCH] Make copy_from_user_inatomic NOT zero the tail on i386NeilBrown
As described in a previous patch and documented in mm/filemap.h, copy_from_user_inatomic* shouldn't zero out the tail of the buffer after an incomplete copy. This patch implements that change for i386. For the _nocache version, a new __copy_user_intel_nocache is defined similar to copy_user_zeroio_intel_nocache, and this is ultimately used for the copy. For the regular version, __copy_from_user_ll_nozero is defined which uses __copy_user and __copy_user_intel - the later needs casts to reposition the __user annotations. If copy_from_user_atomic is given a constant length of 1, 2, or 4, then we do still zero the destintion on failure. This didn't seem worth the effort of fixing as the places where it is used really don't care.

Remove VM_LOCKED before remap_pfn range from device drivers and get rid of VM_SHM. remap_pfn_range() already sets VM_IO. There is no need to set VM_SHM since it does nothing. VM_LOCKED is of no use since the remap_pfn_range does not place pages on the LRU. The pages are therefore never subject to swap anyways.
