Based on an older patch from Mike Kravetz <kravetz@us.ibm.com> We need to have a mem_map for high addresses in order to make fops->no_page work on spufs mem and register files. So far, we have used the memory_present() function during early bootup, but that did not work when CONFIG_NUMA was enabled. We now use the __add_pages() function to add the mem_map when loading the spufs module, which is a lot nicer.

This patch fixes two bugs with the way sparsemem interacts with memory add. They are: - memory leak if memmap for section already exists - calling alloc_bootmem_node() after boot These bugs were discovered and a first cut at the fixes were provided by Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> and Joel Schopp <jschopp@us.ibm.com>.

Currently we check PageDirty() in order to make the decision to swap out the page. However, the dirty information may be only be contained in the ptes pointing to the page. We need to first unmap the ptes before checking for PageDirty(). If unmap is successful then the page count of the page will also be decreased so that pageout() works properly. This is a fix necessary for 2.6.17. Without this fix we may migrate dirty pages for filesystems without migration functions. Filesystems may keep pointers to dirty pages. Migration of dirty pages can result in the filesystem keeping pointers to freed pages. Unmapping is currently not be separated out from removing all the references to a page and moving the mapping. Therefore try_to_unmap will be called again in migrate_page() if the writeout is successful. However, it wont do anything since the ptes are already removed. The coming updates to the page migration code will restructure the code so that this is no longer necessary.

GCC hardened introduces additional symbol refererences (for the canary and friends), also in modules - add weak export_symbols for them. We already tested that the weak declaration creates no problem on both GCC's providing the function definition and on GCC's which don't provide it.

*) Rather than duplicate in various buggy ways the application of CFLAGS_NO_HARDENING and UNPROFILE (which apply to the same files), centralize it in Makefile.rules. UNPROFILE_OBJS mustn't be listed in USER_OBJS but are compiled as such. I've also verified that unprofile didn't work in the current form, because we set _c_flags directly (using CFLAGS and not USER_CFLAGS, which is wrong), which is normally used by c_flags, but we also override c_flags for all USER_OBJS, and there we don't call unprofile. Instead it only worked for unmap.o, the only one which wasn't a USER_OBJ. We need to set c_flags (which is not a public Kbuild API) to clear a lot of compilation flags like -nostdinc which Kbuild forces on everything. *) Rather than $(CFLAGS_$(notdir $@)), which expands to CFLAGS_anObj.s when building "anObj.s", use $(CFLAGS_$(*F).o) which always accesses CFLAGS_anObj.o, like done by Kbuild. *) Make c_flags apply to all targets having the same basename, rather than listing .s, .i, .lst and .o, with the use (which I tested) of $(USER_OBJS:.o=.%): c_flags = ... and of - $(obj)/unmap.c: _c_flags = ... + $(obj)/unmap.%: _c_flags = ...

To make some half-assembly stubs compile, disable various "hardened" GCC features: *) we can't make it build PIC code as we need %ebx to do syscalls and GCC wants it free for PIC *) we can't leave stack protection as the stub is moved (not relocated!) in memory so the RIP-relative access to the canary tries reading from an unmapped address and causes a segfault, since we move the stub of various megabytes (the exact amount will be decided at runtime) away from the link-time address.

Bring defconfig up to date. Also disable CONFIG_BLK_DEV_UBD_SYNC by default. By performing synchronous I/O to the host, it slows things down, only protects against host crashes, and can make a UML appear to hang while it waits for the host's disk.

When retrying a failed BIO_RW_BARRIER request, we need to keep the reference in ->nr_pending over the whole retry. Currently, we only hold the reference if the failed request is the *last* one to finish - which is silly, because it would normally be the first to finish. So move the rdev_dec_pending call up into the didn't-fail branch. As the rdev isn't used in the later code, calling rdev_dec_pending earlier doesn't hurt.

A context switch will force a call to flush_tlb_pending() (via switch_to()), so if we test tlb_nr to be non-zero, then sleep, it would become zero and later back at the original context we'll pass zero down into the TLB flushing code which should never see a nr argument of zero.

Add a reset_phy parameter to tg3_reset_hw() and tg3_init_hw(). With the full chip reset during MAC address change, the automatic PHY reset during chip reset will cause a link down and bonding will not work properly as a result.
