A nasty compile error:

In file included from security/keys/internal.h:16,

include/linux/key-ui.h: In function 'key_permission':
include/linux/key-ui.h:51: error: invalid use of undefined type 'struct task_struct'

apparently the compiler has decided that it needs to know sizeof(task_struct)
so that it can add zero to a task_struct* (which is rather dumb of it).

Getting task_struct in scope in these deeply-nested headers is scary-looking,
so let's just remove the "+ 0".

Markers do not mix well with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU because it uses
preempt_disable/enable() and not rcu_read_lock/unlock for minimal
intrusiveness.  We would need call_sched and sched_barrier primitives.

Currently, the modification (connection and disconnection) of probes
from markers requires changes to the data structure done in RCU-style :
a new data structure is created, the pointer is changed atomically, a
quiescent state is reached and then the old data structure is freed.

The quiescent state is reached once all the currently running
preempt_disable regions are done running.  We use the call_rcu mechanism
to execute kfree() after such quiescent state has been reached.
However, the new CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU version of call_rcu and rcu_barrier
does not guarantee that all preempt_disable code regions have finished,
hence the race.

The "proper" way to do this is to use rcu_read_lock/unlock, but we don't
want to use it to minimize intrusiveness on the traced system.  (we do
not want the marker code to call into much of the OS code, because it
would quickly restrict what can and cannot be instrumented, such as the
scheduler).

The temporary fix, until we get call_rcu_sched and rcu_barrier_sched in
mainline, is to use synchronize_sched before each call_rcu calls, so we
wait for the quiescent state in the system call code path.  It will slow
down batch marker enable/disable, but will make sure the race is gone.

Fix the problem that makedumpfile sometimes fails on x86_64 machine.

This patch adds the symbol "phys_base" to a vmcoreinfo data.  The
vmcoreinfo data has the minimum debugging information only for dump
filtering.  makedumpfile (dump filtering command) gets it to distinguish
unnecessary pages, and makedumpfile creates a small dumpfile.

On x86_64 kernel which compiled with CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START=0x0 and
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, makedumpfile fails like the following:

 # makedumpfile -d31 /proc/vmcore dumpfile
 The kernel version is not supported.
 The created dumpfile may be incomplete.
 _exclude_free_page: Can't get next online node.

 makedumpfile Failed.
 #

The cause is the lack of the symbol "phys_base" in a vmcoreinfo data.
If the symbol "phys_base" does not exist, makedumpfile considers an
x86_64 kernel as non relocatable.  As the result, makedumpfile
misunderstands the physical address where the kernel is loaded, and it
cannot translate a kernel virtual address to physical address correctly.

To fix this problem, this patch adds the symbol "phys_base" to a
vmcoreinfo data.

Currently include/linux/kvm.h is not considered by make headers_install,
because Kbuild cannot handle " unifdef-$(CONFIG_FOO) += foo.h.  This problem
was introduced by

commit fb56dbb3
Author: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
Date:   Sun Dec 2 10:50:06 2007 +0200

    KVM: Export include/linux/kvm.h only if $ARCH actually supports KVM

    Currently, make headers_check barfs due to <asm/kvm.h>, which <linux/kvm.h>
    includes, not existing.  Rather than add a zillion <asm/kvm.h>s, export kvm.
    only if the arch actually supports it.
Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

which makes this an 2.6.25 regression.

One way of solving the issue is to enhance Kbuild, but Avi and David conviced
me, that changing headers_install is not the way to go.  This patch changes
the definition for linux/kvm.h to unifdef-y.

If  unifdef-y is used for linux/kvm.h "make headers_check" will fail on all
architectures without asm/kvm.h.  Therefore, this patch also provides
asm/kvm.h on all architectures.

Looking a bit closer into this regression the reason this can't be
right is that dma_addr common default is BLK_BOUNCE_HIGH and most
machines have less than 4G. So if you do:

    if (b_pfn <= (min_t(u64, 0xffffffff, BLK_BOUNCE_HIGH) >> PAGE_SHIFT))
	dma = 1

that will translate to:

     if (BLK_BOUNCE_HIGH <= BLK_BOUNCE_HIGH)
     	dma = 1

So for 99% of hardware this will trigger unnecessary GFP_DMA
allocations and isa pooling operations.

Also note how the 32bit code still does b_pfn < blk_max_low_pfn.

I guess this is what you were looking after. I didn't verify but as
far as I can tell, this will stop the regression with isa dma
operations at boot for 99% of blkdev/memory combinations out there and
I guess this fixes the setups with >4G of ram and 32bit pci cards as
well (this also retains symmetry with the 32bit code).
