    [PATCH] x86-64 updates · b4f6270e
    Andi Kleen authored
    Lots of x86-64 updates. Merge with 2.4 and NUMA works now. Also reenabled
    the preemptive kernel. And some other bug fixes.
    IOMMU disabled by default now because it has problems.
    
     - Add more CONFIG options for device driver debugging and iommu
       force/debug.  (don't enable iommu force currently)
     - Some S3/ACPI fixes/cleanups from Pavel.
     - Set MSG_COMPAT_* in msg_flags for networking 32bit emulation.
       This unfortunately still doesn't fix the fd passing problems.
     - Sync PCI IOMMU code with 2.4 (minor fixes, flush less often)
     - Really fix UP compilation (Pavel)
     - Reenable preempt
     - Fix CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM bootup and enable.  Still needs more tuning.
     - Fix some bugs in topology discovery and clean code up.
     - Don't put unwind tables into object files
     - Some kernel debugging hooks
     - Move CPU detection into early real mode code to better interact with
       vesafb consoles
     - Initialize mode in real mode character output
     - New 32bit FPU signal save/restore
     - Various fixes in FPU handling in ptrace
     - Fix security holes in ptrace (32bit and 64bit)
     - Fix serial ioctl (including security hole)
     - Add bluetooth ioctls to 32bit emu (from sparc64)
     - Correctly enable si_val in queued signals in 32bit emulation
     - Rework SEM_STAT emulation.  LTP still fails unfortunately.
     - Fix error case in msg* emulation
     - Fix debug register access from ptrace (Michal Ludvig, me)
     - Fix handling of NULL arguments in 32bit execve
     - Fix some error cases for 32bit readv/writev (LTP still complains)
     - Remove rate control from unimplemented syscall warnings
     - Fix error message for missing aperture
     - Turn some APIC printks into Dprintk to make the bootup more quiet
     - Some fixes for no APIC (probably still broken), add disableapic
       option (untested)
     - Sync K8 MCE handler with 2.4.  Should work a lot better now.
     - Remove never used KDB hooks
     - Fix buffer overflow in command line copying
     - Merge from i386: use separate status word for lazy FPU state
     - Don't force the IOMMU for dma masks < 4GB.
     - Print backtrace in Sysrq-T (from Andrea)
     - Merge from i386: fix FPU race in fork.
     - Disable NX mode by default for now
     - Rewrite dump_pagetable
     - Fix off by one bug in ioremap (i386 merge)
     - Merge from i386: handle VIA pci bridge bugs
     - Disable NUMA ACPI support (no SRAT support yet)
     - Fix aio 32bit emulation
     - Increase 32bit address space to nearly 4GB
     - Add exit_group syscall
     - Fix TLS setting in clone (Ulrich Drepper)
