The powerpc PCI code sets up the PCI tree without doing config space
accesses in most cases, from the firmware tree. However, it still wants
to call pci_cfg_space_size() under some conditions, thus it needs to
be made non-static (though I don't see a point to export it to modules).

This is a major update to the cyblafb framebuffer driver. Most
of the stuff has been tested in the mm tree.
Main advantages:
============
- vxres > xres support
- ywrap and xpan support
- much faster for almost all modes (e.g. 1280x1024-16bpp
draws more than 41 full screens of text instead of about 25
full screens of text per second on authors Epia 5000)
- module init/exit code fixed
- bugs triggered by console rotation fixed
- lots of minor improvements
- startup modes suitable for high performance scrolling
in all directions
This diff also contains a lot of white space fixes.
No side effects are possible, only one single graphics core is affected.

This patch makes IDE use the new blk_complete_request() interface.
There's still room for improvement, as __ide_end_request() really
could drop the lock after getting HWGROUP->rq (why does it need to
hold it in the first place? If ->rq access isn't serialized, we are

This is the platform function interpreter itself along with the backends
for UniN/U3/U4, mac-io, GPIOs and i2c. It adds the ability to execute
those do-platform-* scripts in the device-tree (at least for most
devices for which a backend is provided). This should replace the clock
spreading hacks properly. It might also have an impact on all sort of
machines since some of the scripts marked "at init" will now be executed
on boot (or some other on sleep/wakeup), those will possibly do things
that the kernel didn't do at all, like setting some values into some i2c
devices (changing thermal sensor calibration or conversion rate) etc...
Thus regression testing is MUCH welcome. Also loook for errors in dmesg.
That's also why I've left rather verbose debugging enabled in this
version of the patch.
(I do expect some Windtunnel G4s to show some errors as they have an i2c
clock chip on the PMU bus that uses some primitives that the i2c backend
doesn't implement yet. I really need users that have one of those
machine to come back to me so we can get that done right, though the
errors themselves should be harmless, I suspect the machine might not
run at full speed).

This is the continuation of the previous patch. This one removes the old
PowerMac i2c drivers (i2c-keywest and i2c-pmac-smu) and replaces them
both with a single stub driver that uses the new PowerMac low i2c layer.
Now that i2c-keywest is gone, the low-i2c code is extended to support
interrupt driver transfers. All i2c busses now appear as platform
devices. Compatibility with existing drivers should be maintained as the
i2c bus names have been kept identical, except for the SMU bus but in
that later case, all users has been fixed.
With that patch added, matching a device node to an i2c_adapter becomes
trivial.

This is the first part of a rework of the PowerMac i2c code. It
completely reworks the "low_i2c" layer. It is now more flexible,
supports KeyWest, SMU and PMU i2c busses, and provides functions to
match device nodes to i2c busses and adapters.
This patch also extends & fix some bugs in the SMU driver related to i2c
support and removes the clock spreading hacks from the pmac feature code
rather than adapting them to the new API since they'll be replaced by
the platform function code completely in patch 3/5

For far, all SPU triggered interrupts always end up on
the first SMT thread, which is a bad solution.
This patch implements setting the affinity to the
CPU that was running last when entering execution on
an SPU. This should result in a significant reduction

In a hypervisor based setup, direct access to the first
priviledged register space can typically not be allowed
to the kernel and has to be implemented through hypervisor
calls.
As suggested by Masato Noguchi, let's abstract the register
access trough a number of function calls. Since there is
currently no public specification of actual hypervisor
calls to implement this, I only provide a place that
makes it easier to hook into.

This adds an option to remove vm86 support under CONFIG_EMBEDDED. Saves

This version eliminates most of the #ifdefs of the previous version and
instead uses function stubs in vm86.h. Also, release_vm86_irqs is moved
from asm-i386/irq.h to a more appropriate home in vm86.h so that the stubs
can live together.

that

Reorder members of the kiocb structure to make sync kiocb setup faster. By
setting the elements sequentially, the write combining buffers on the CPU
are able to combine the writes into a single burst, which results in fewer
cache cycles being consumed, freeing them up for other code. This results
in a 10-20KB/s[*] increase on the bw_unix part of LMbench on my test
system.
* The improvement varies based on what other patches are in the system,
as there are a number of bottlenecks, so this number is not absolutely
accurate.

Add a hook so architectures can validate /dev/mem mmap requests.
This is analogous to validation we already perform in the read/write
paths.
The identity mapping scheme used on ia64 requires that each 16MB or
64MB granule be accessed with exactly one attribute (write-back or
uncacheable). This avoids "attribute aliasing", which can cause a
machine check.
Sample problem scenario:
- Machine supports VGA, so it has uncacheable (UC) MMIO at 640K-768K
- efi_memmap_init() discards any write-back (WB) memory in the first granule
- Application (e.g., "hwinfo") mmaps /dev/mem, offset 0
- hwinfo receives UC mapping (the default, since memmap says "no WB here")
- Machine check abort (on chipsets that don't support UC access to WB
memory, e.g., sx1000)
In the scenario above, the only choices are
- Use WB for hwinfo mmap. Can't do this because it causes attribute
aliasing with the UC mapping for the VGA MMIO space.
- Use UC for hwinfo mmap. Can't do this because the chipset may not
support UC for that region.
- Disallow the hwinfo mmap with -EINVAL. That's what this patch does.

There's one scsi driver which doesn't compile due to weird __VA_ARGS__ tricks
and the rather useful scsi/sd.c is currently getting an ICE. None of the new
SAS code compiles, due to extensive use of anonymous unions. The V4L guys are
very good at exploiting the gcc-2.95.x macro expansion bug (_why_ does each
driver need to implement its own debug macros?) and various people keep on
sneaking in anonymous unions, which are rather nice.
Plus anonymous unions are rather useful.

I found that blkp field was not used in kernel tree.
As most of the times NR_CPUS is a power of two and kmalloc() memory blocks
too, this extra field basically doubles the memory space allocated in
__alloc_percpu() to store the 'struct percpu_data'
(for example, if NR_CPUS=8 on i386, kmalloc(4*8+4) returns a 64 bytes block
instead of a 32 bytes block after this patch)

Some long time ago, dentry struct was carefully tuned so that on 32 bits
UP, sizeof(struct dentry) was exactly 128, ie a power of 2, and a multiple
of memory cache lines.
Then RCU was added and dentry struct enlarged by two pointers, with nice
results for SMP, but not so good on UP, because breaking the above tuning
(128 + 8 = 136 bytes)
This patch reverts this unwanted side effect, by using an union (d_u),
where d_rcu and d_child are placed so that these two fields can share their
memory needs.
At the time d_free() is called (and d_rcu is really used), d_child is known
to be empty and not touched by the dentry freeing.
Lockless lookups only access d_name, d_parent, d_lock, d_op, d_flags (so
the previous content of d_child is not needed if said dentry was unhashed
but still accessed by a CPU because of RCU constraints)
As dentry cache easily contains millions of entries, a size reduction is
worth the extra complexity of the ugly C union.

HDIO_GETGEO is implemented in most block drivers, and all of them have to
duplicate the code to copy the structure to userspace, as well as getting
the start sector. This patch moves that to common code [1] and adds a
->getgeo method to fill out the raw kernel hd_geometry structure. For many
drivers this means ->ioctl can go away now.
[1] the s390 block drivers are odd in this respect. xpram sets ->start
to 4 always which seems more than odd, and the dasd driver shifts
the start offset around, probably because of it's non-standard
sector size.

Make it possible for a running process (such as gssapid) to be able to
instantiate a key, as was requested by Trond Myklebust for NFS4.
The patch makes the following changes:
(1) A new, optional key type method has been added. This permits a key type
to intercept requests at the point /sbin/request-key is about to be
spawned and do something else with them - passing them over the
rpc_pipefs files or netlink sockets for instance.
The uninstantiated key, the authorisation key and the intended operation
name are passed to the method.
(2) The callout_info is no longer passed as an argument to /sbin/request-key
to prevent unauthorised viewing of this data using ps or by looking in
/proc/pid/cmdline.
This means that the old /sbin/request-key program will not work with the
patched kernel as it will expect to see an extra argument that is no
longer there.
A revised keyutils package will be made available tomorrow.
(3) The callout_info is now attached to the authorisation key. Reading this
key will retrieve the information.
(4) A new field has been added to the task_struct. This holds the
authorisation key currently active for a thread. Searches now look here
for the caller's set of keys rather than looking for an auth key in the
lowest level of the session keyring.
This permits a thread to be servicing multiple requests at once and to
switch between them. Note that this is per-thread, not per-process, and
so is usable in multithreaded programs.
The setting of this field is inherited across fork and exec.
(5) A new keyctl function (KEYCTL_ASSUME_AUTHORITY) has been added that
permits a thread to assume the authority to deal with an uninstantiated
key. Assumption is only permitted if the authorisation key associated
with the uninstantiated key is somewhere in the thread's keyrings.
This function can also clear the assumption.
(6) A new magic key specifier has been added to refer to the currently
assumed authorisation key (KEY_SPEC_REQKEY_AUTH_KEY).
(7) Instantiation will only proceed if the appropriate authorisation key is
assumed first. The assumed authorisation key is discarded if
instantiation is successful.
(8) key_validate() is moved from the file of request_key functions to the
file of permissions functions.
(9) The documentation is updated.

SUS requires that when truncating a file to the size that it currently
is:
truncate and ftruncate should NOT modify ctime or mtime
O_TRUNC SHOULD modify ctime and mtime.
Currently mtime and ctime are always modified on most local
filesystems (side effect of ->truncate) or never modified (on NFS).
With this patch:
ATTR_CTIME|ATTR_MTIME are sent with ATTR_SIZE precisely when
an update of these times is required whether size changes or not
(via a new argument to do_truncate). This allows NFS to do
the right thing for O_TRUNC.
inode_setattr nolonger forces ATTR_MTIME|ATTR_CTIME when the ATTR_SIZE
sets the size to it's current value. This allows local filesystems
to do the right thing for f?truncate.
Also, the logic in inode_setattr is changed a bit so there are two return
points. One returns the error from vmtruncate if it failed, the other
returns 0 (there can be no other failure).
Finally, if vmtruncate succeeds, and ATTR_SIZE is the only change
requested, we now fall-through and mark_inode_dirty. If a filesystem did
not have a ->truncate function, then vmtruncate will have changed i_size,
without marking the inode as 'dirty', and I think this is wrong.

into relay_open()/close() and supply the files that will be used to represent
the channel buffers; the default implementation if no callbacks are defined is
to create the files in relayfs. This is to support the creation and use of
relay files in other filesystems such as debugfs, as implied by the fact that
relayfs_file_operations are exported.

Since we're no longer using relayfs_inode_info, remove relayfs_alloc_inode()
and relayfs_destroy_inode() along with the relayfs inode cache.
