(I missed a file in the cleanup code that I sent yesterday.) SGI SN code currently makes assumptions about the bits in the LID register. These assumptions do not conform to the bit specifications from Intel. For example, SN currently assumes that bits [28:16] of the LID contain the physical node ID of a node. This patch eliminates these assumptions. A SAL call is now used to translate LID values to the NASID/subnode/slice values that are needed for SN platforms. The results of the SAL call are saved in the SN nodepda. Signed-off-by: Jack Steiner <steiner@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

I left out some of the necessary machine vector magic in the mmiowb patch which caused the generic build to break. This patch fixes it up by properly #defining it and #undefing it and adding a routine to lib/io.c. Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

change-log: - update comment for pfm_do_fasync() - fix return value for pfm_smpl_buffer_alloc(). Now return ENOMEM instead of EAGAIN when buffer too big for RLIMIT_MEMLOCK. - added missing vm_pgoff initialization in pfm_smpl_buffer_alloc() - added flags tro debug print in pfm_write_pmcs - added seed and mask to debug print in pfm_write_pmds - shorten some of the debug prints - remove bogus sanity check from pfm_save_regs() in SMP. this could cause invalid PMU state restore signed-off-by: eranian@hpl.hp.com Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

With this change, there's some extra fuzz introduced that a max_addr specification will get rounded down to a granule boundary and memory quantity, when using mem=, will be within a granule size of the requested amount.

Optimize away the unconditional write to debug registers on signal delivery path. This is already done on x86_64. We only need to write to dr7 if there is a breakpoint to re-enable, and MOVDR is a serializing instruction, which is expensive. Getting rid of it gets a 33% faster signal delivery path (at least on Xeon - I didn't test other CPUs, so your gain may vary). [ Editors note: it's likely only that slow on Netburst. Serializing is not that expensive, but it is likely that writing to %db7 invalidates the trace cache, which explains why it's so slow on Xeon - it's not just the op itself, it has to re-populate the cache all the time. --- Linus ] Measured delta TSC for three paths on a 2.4GHz Xeon. 1) With unconditional write to dr7 : 800-1000 cycles 2) With conditional write to dr7 : 84-112 cycles 3) With unlikely write to dr7 : 84 cycles Performance test using divzero microbenchmark (3 million divide by zeros): With unconditional write: 7.445 real / 6.136 system 7.529 real / 6.482 system 7.541 real / 5.974 system 7.546 real / 6.217 system 7.445 real / 6.167 system With unlikely write: 5.779 real / 4.518 system 5.783 real / 4.591 system 5.552 real / 4.569 system 5.790 real / 4.528 system 5.554 real / 4.382 system That's about a 33% speedup - more than I expected; apparently getting rid of the serializing instruction makes the do_signal path much faster.

In general it is not safe to do any non-ptrace wakeup of a thread in TASK_TRACED, because the waking thread could race with a ptrace call that could be doing things like mucking directly with its kernel stack. AFAIK noone has established that whatever clobberation ptrace can do to a running thread is safe even if it will never return to user mode, so we can't allow this even for SIGKILL. What we _can_ safely do is make a thread switching out of TASK_TRACED resume rather than sitting in TASK_STOPPED if it has a pending SIGKILL or SIGCONT. The following patch does this. This should be sufficient for the shutdown case. When killing all processes, if the tracer gets killed first, the tracee goes into TASK_STOPPED and will be woken and killed by the SIGKILL (same as before). If the tracee gets killed first, it gets a pending SIGKILL and doesn't wake up immediately--but, now, when the tracer gets killed, the tracee will then wake up to die. This will also fix the (same) situations that can arise now where you have used gdb (or whatever ptrace caller), killed -9 the gdb and the process being debugged, but still have to kill -CONT the process before it goes away (now it should just go away either the first time or when you kill gdb).

My latest 8250 patch prevented registration of "empty" ports (ports that have a 0 iobase in the static table). Unfortunately, some archs seem to rely on this, and so broke. This patch reverts that part of the patch. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

The iommu_free_table() patch broke g5 only build by adding back some incestuous relationship between generic code and pSeries code.

The ppc64 PCI code, when parsing the OF tree, may end up getting empty regions in addition to the "normal" ones for the PHB (some pSeries OF device-tree contains weird "ranges" properties). These are harmless but do trigger some annoying warnings during boot, so let's ignore them.
