doorbell type is defined as bits 32:36 so should be shifted by 63-36 = 27 rather than 28. We never noticed this bug as we've only every used type PPC_DBELL = 0.

On many platforms (including pSeries), smp_ops->message_pass is always smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass. This changes arch/powerpc/kernel/smp.c so that if smp_ops->message_pass is NULL, it calls smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass directly. This means that a platform doesn't need to set both .message_pass and .cause_ipi, only one of them. It is a slight performance improvement in that it gets rid of an indirect function call at the expense of a predictable conditional branch.

smp_release_cpus() waits for all cpus (including the bootcpu) due to an off-by-one count on boot_cpu_count (which is all CPUs).

This tries to make the 'struct inode' accesses denser in the data cache by moving a commonly accessed field (i_security) closer to other fields that are accessed often. It also makes 'i_state' just an 'unsigned int' rather than 'unsigned long', since we only use a few bits of that field, and moves it next to the existing 'i_flags' so that we potentially get better structure layout (although depending on config options, i_flags may already have packed in the same word as i_lock, so this improves packing only for the case of spinlock debugging) Out 'struct inode' is still way too big, and we should probably move some other fields around too (the acl fields in particular) for better data cache access density. Other fields (like the inode hash) are likely to be entirely irrelevant under most loads. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This is a rather hot function that is called with a potentially NULL "struct common_audit_data" pointer argument. And in that case it has to provide and initialize its own dummy common_audit_data structure. However, all the _common_ cases already pass it a real audit-data structure, so that uncommon NULL case not only creates a silly run-time test, more importantly it causes that function to have a big stack frame for the dummy variable that isn't even used in the common case! So get rid of that stupid run-time behavior, and make the (few) functions that currently call with a NULL pointer just call a new helper function instead (naturally called inode_has_perm_noapd(), since it has no adp argument). This makes the run-time test be a static code generation issue instead, and allows for a much denser stack since none of the common callers need the dummy structure. And a denser stack not only means less stack space usage, it means better cache behavior. So we have a win-win-win from this simplification: less code executed, smaller stack footprint, and better cache behavior. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The flush_to_ldisc() work entry has special logic to notice when it has seen the original tail of the data queue, and it avoids continuing the flush if it sees that _original_ tail rather than the current tail. This logic can trigger in case somebody is constantly adding new data to the tty while the flushing is active - and the intent is to avoid excessive CPU usage while flushing the tty, especially as we used to do this from a softirq context which made it non-preemptible. However, since we no longer re-arm the work-queue from within itself (because that causes other trouble: see commit a5660b41 "tty: fix endless work loop when the buffer fills up"), this just leads to possible hung tty's (most easily seen in SMP and with a test-program that floods a pty with data - nobody seems to have reported this for any real-life situation yet). And since the workqueue isn't done from timers and softirq's any more, it's doubtful whether the CPU useage issue is really relevant any more. So just remove the logic entirely, and see if anybody ever notices. Alternatively, we might want to re-introduce the "re-arm the work" for just this case, but then we'd have to re-introduce the delayed work model or some explicit timer, which really doesn't seem worth it for this.

On my x86_64 system with >4GB of ram and swiotlb instead of a hardware iommu (because I have a VIA chipset), the call to pci_set_dma_mask (see below) with 40bits returns an error. But it seems that the radeon driver is designed to have need_dma32 = true exactly if pci_set_dma_mask is called with 32 bits and false if it is called with 40 bits. I have read somewhere that the default are 32 bits. So if the call fails I suppose that need_dma32 should be set to true.

die_if_no_fixup() shouldn't use get_user() as it doesn't call set_fs() to indicate that it wants to probe a kernel address. Instead it should use probe_kernel_read(). This fixes the problem of gdb seeing SIGILL rather than SIGTRAP when hitting the KGDB special breakpoint upon SysRq+g being seen. The problem was that die_if_no_fixup() was failing to read the opcode of the instruction that caused the exception, and thus not fixing up the exception. This caused gdb to get a S04 response to the $? request in its remote protocol rather than S05 - which would then cause it to continue with $C04 rather than $c in an attempt to pass the signal onto the inferior process. The kernel, however, does not support $Cnn, and so objects by returning an E22 response, indicating an error. gdb does not expect this and prints: warning: Remote failure reply: E22 and then returns to the gdb command prompt unable to continue.
