2006-04-28[PATCH] s390: add read_mostly optimizationChristian Borntraeger
Add a read_mostly section and define __read_mostly to prevent cache line pollution due to writes for mostly read variables. In addition fix the incorrect alignment of the cache_line_aligned data section. s390 has a cacheline size of 256 bytes.

2006-04-28[PATCH] s390: alternate signal stack handling bugLaurent Meyer
If a signal handler has been established with the SA_ONSTACK option but no alternate stack is provided with sigaltstack(), the kernel still tries to install the alternate stack. Also when setting an alternate stack with sigalstack() and the SS_DISABLE flag, the kernel tries to install the alternate stack on signal delivery. Use the correct conditions sas_ss_flags() to check if the alternate stack has to be used.

2006-04-28[PATCH] Mark VMSPLIT EMBEDDEDAndi Kleen
Running abnormal VM splits causes weird problems - people can set non-standard splits by accident, then lots of time gets wasted diagnosing it - see the long "[stable] 2.6.16.6 breaks java... sort of" email thread. So we need to make this option harder to set. Use CONFIG_EMBEDDED for this. CONFIG_EMBEDDED isn't really the right thing to use, but there's nothing else obvious and avoiding these problems is more important than Kconfig purity.

2006-04-28[PATCH] enable X86_PC for HOTPLUG_CPUAshok Raj
CPU_HOTPLUG has race conditions when we use broadcast mode IPI. - First we introduced no_broadcast option (see include/asm-i386/mach-default/mach_ipi.h) - x86_64 solved it by using physical flat mode (same as bigsmp on i386) since this will not use broadcast shortcuts for IPI. - We switched to use bigsmp on i386 so that we can have same handling as x86_64, but apparently this caused an error message, if kernel was compiled without X86_GENERICARCH, X86_BIGSMP. The message "You have >8 CPUS..." which was bogus and misleading, and only indicated one of the above ARCH wasnt selected. So we do not switch to automatic bigsmp for HOTPLUG_CPU support in i386 until the other related config dependencies for SMP_SUSPEND etc can be done right.

2006-04-27[IA64-SGI] - Reduce overhead of reading sn_topologyJack Steiner
MPI programs using certain debug options have a long startup time. This was traced to a "vmalloc/vfree" in the code that reads /proc/sgi_sn/sn_topology. On large systems, vfree requires an IPI to all cpus to do TLB purging. Replace the vmalloc/vfree with kmalloc/kfree. Although the size of the structure being allocated is unknown, it will not not exceed 96 bytes. Signed-off-by: Jack Steiner <steiner@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

In the branch emulation for floating-point exceptions, __compute_return_epc must determine for bc1f et al which condition code bit to test. This is based on bits <4:2> of the rt field.

2006-04-26[PATCH] Remove __devinit and __cpuinit from notifier_call definitionsChandra Seetharaman
Few of the notifier_chain_register() callers use __init in the definition of notifier_call.

Few of the notifier_chain_register() callers use __devinitdata in the definition of notifier_block data structure. It is incorrect as the data structure should be available after the initializations (they do not unregister them during initializations). This was leading to an oops when notifier_chain_register() call is invoked for those callback chains after initialization.

This still races with other simultaneous alloc_iommu or free_iommu(size > 1) which both use bus-unlocked operations.
