      [IA64-SGI] Fix SN PTC deadlock recovery · 590711b7
      Jack Steiner authored
      The patch that added support for a new platform chipset (shub2) broke
      PTC deadlock recovery on older versions of the chipset. (PTCs are the
      SN platform-specific method for doing a global TLB purge). This
      patch fixes deadlock recovery so that it works on both the old & new
      chipsets.

      [IA64] Change SET_PERSONALITY to comply with comment in binfmt_elf.c. · bd1d6e24
      Robin Holt authored
      We have a customer application which trips a bug.  The problem arises
      when a driver attempts to call do_munmap on an area which is mapped, but
      because current->thread.task_size has been set to 0xC0000000, the call
      to do_munmap fails thinking it is an unmap beyond the user's address
      space.
      
      The comment in fs/binfmt_elf.c in load_elf_library() before the call
      to SET_PERSONALITY() indicates that task_size must not be changed for
      the running application until flush_thread, but is for ia64 executing
      ia32 binaries.
      
      This patch moves the setting of task_size from SET_PERSONALITY() to
      flush_thread() as indicated.  The customer application no longer is able
      to trip the bug.

      [IA64] Limit the maximum NODEDATA_ALIGN() offset · acb7f672
      Jack Steiner authored
      The per-node data structures are allocated with strided offsets that are a
      function of the node number. This prevents excessive cache-aliasing from
      occurring.
      
      On systems with a large number of nodes, the strided offset becomes
      too large. This patch restricts the maximum offset to 32MB. This is far larger
      than the size of any current L3 cache.

      [IA64-SGI] altix: pci_window fixup · 3ec829b6
      John Keller authored
      Altix only patch to add fixup code that sets up
      pci_controller->window. This code is a temporary
      fix until ACPI support on Altix is added.
      
      Also, corrects the usage of pci_dev->sysdata,
      which had previously been used to reference
      platform specific device info, to now point to
      a pci_controller struct.
