For 32-bit processes, the getcontext side of the swapcontext system call (i.e. the saving of the context when the first argument is non-NULL) has to set the ctx->uc_mcontext.uc_regs pointer to the place where it saves the registers. Which it does, but it doesn't ensure that the pointer is 16-byte aligned. 16-byte alignment is needed because the Altivec/VMX registers are saved in there, and they need to be on a 16-byte boundary. This fixes it by ensuring the appropriate alignment of the pointer. This issue was pointed out by Jakub Jelinek. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

The patch adding support for zImage.ps3 didn't add a zImage.initrd.ps3 target causing builds of zImage.initrd to fail when ps3 is included in the .config. The current method of generating ps3 images doesn't support initrd's yet, so we create a dummy target that only displays a warning message instead.

On some oldworld PowerMacs, OF doesn't assign interrupts properly beyond P2P bridges. Fortunately, the fix is easy as all those machines just wire all IRQ lines together to one IRQ which is assigned to the bridge itself. We already have a special function for parsing Apple OldWorld interrupts which are special, so let's add to it the ability to walk up the PCI tree to find interrupts. This fixes irqs on the lower slots of s900 clones among others. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

The difference between 'nid' and 'node' fields in an spu structure was used incorrectly. The common 'node' number now reflects the NUMA node, and it is used in other places in the code as well. The 'nid' value is meaningful only in one place, namely the computation of the interrupt numbers based on the physical location of an spu. Consequently, we look it up directly in the place where it is used now. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd.bergmann@de.ibm.com>

Hugh Dickins correctly points out that mincore() is actually _supposed_ to fail on an unmapped hole in the user address space, rather than return valid ("empty") information about the hole. This just simplifies the problem further (I had been misled by our previous confusing and complicated way of doing mincore()). Also, in the unlikely situation that we can't allocate a temporary kernel buffer, we should actually return EAGAIN, not ENOMEM, to keep the "unmapped hole" and "allocation failure" error cases separate. Finally, add a comment about our stupid historical lack of support for anonymous mappings. I'll fix that if somebody reminds me after 2.6.20 is out.

On architectures where the atomicity of the bit operations is handled by external means (ie a separate spinlock to protect concurrent accesses), just doing a direct assignment on the workqueue data field (as done by commit 4594bf15) can cause the assignment to be lost due to lack of serialization with the bitops on the same word. So we need to serialize the assignment with the locks on those architectures (notably older ARM chips, PA-RISC and sparc32). So rather than using an "unsigned long", let's use "atomic_long_t", which already has a safe assignment operation (atomic_long_set()) on such architectures. This requires that the atomic operations use the same atomicity locks as the bit operations do, but that is largely the case anyway. Sparc32 will probably need fixing. Architectures (including modern ARM with LL/SC) that implement sane atomic operations for SMP won't see any of this matter.

Doug Chapman noticed that mincore() will doa "copy_to_user()" of the result while holding the mmap semaphore for reading, which is a big no-no. While a recursive read-lock on a semaphore in the case of a page fault happens to work, we don't actually allow them due to deadlock schenarios with writers due to fairness issues. Doug and Marcel sent in a patch to fix it, but I decided to just rewrite the mess instead - not just fixing the locking problem, but making the code smaller and (imho) much easier to understand.

The UDMA66 VIA hardware has no controller side cable detect bits we can use. This patch minimally fixes the problem by reporting unknown in this case and using drive side detection. The old drivers/ide code does some additional tricks but those aren't appropriate now we are in -rc. Without this update UDMA66 via controllers run slowly. They don't fail so it's a borderline call whether this is -rc material or not. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

struct srp_device.fmr_page_mask was unsigned long, which means that the top part of addresses above 4G was being chopped off on 32-bit architectures. Of course nothing good happens when data from SRP targets is DMAed to the wrong place. Fix this by changing fmr_page_mask to u64, to match the addresses actually used by IB devices.
