profile_hook unconditionally takes a read lock on profile_lock if kernel profiling is enabled. The lock protects the profile_hook notifier chain from being written while it's being called. The routine profile_hook is called in a very hot path though: every timer tick on every CPU. As you can imagine, on a large system, this makes the cacheline containing profile_lock pretty hot. Since oprofile was the only user of the profile_hook, I removed the notifier chain altogether in favor of a simple function pointer with the help of John Levon. This removes all of the contention in the hot path since the variable is very seldom written and simplifies things a little to boot.

On PA-RISC, we have a unified syscall table for 32 and 64 bit that uses macros to generate the appropriate syscall names (native vs compat). For this to work, we need consistent compat syscall names. Unfortunately, some recent additions drop the 'sys_'. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Patch from Nicolas Pitre This should be applied on top of patch #2154/1. This maps the XIP kernel in the same virtual area as used for kernel modules instead of the previous arbitrary location. Doing so has the advantage of having a well defined kernel address not conflicting with the different definitions for VMALLOC_END, as well as making modules loadable without any indirect long branch calls. The work on XIPable MTD also requires this with code marked __xipram for the same reason. This of course reduces the space available for kernel modules from 16MB to either 14MB or 12MB depending on the size of the resulting kernel but that shouldn't be a real issue at all, given that the whole purpose behind XIP is to execute as much stuff from flash, which is better achieved by compiling drivers in the kernel directly.

Patch from Nicolas Pitre This patch allows for the kernel to be configured for XIP. A lot of people are using semi hacked up XIP patches already so it is a good idea to have a generic and clean implementation supporting all ARM targets. The patch isn't too intrusive. It involves: - modifying the kernel entry code to map separate .text and .data sections in the initial page table, as well as relocating .data to ram when needed - modifying the linker script to account for the different VMA and LMA for .data, as well as making sure that .init.data gets relocated to ram - adding the final kernel mapping with a new MT_ROM mem type - distinguishing between XIP and non-XIP for bootmem and memory resource declaration - and adding proper target handling to Makefiles. While at it, this also cleans up the kernel boot code a bit so the kernel can now be compiled for any address in ram, removing the need for a relation between kernel address and start of ram. Also throws in some more comments. And finally the _text, _etext, _end and similar variables are now declared extern void instead of extern char, or even extern int. That allows for operations on their address directly without any cast, and trying to reference them by mistake would yield an error which is a good thing. Tested both configurations: XIP and non XIP, the later producing a kernel for execution from ram just as before. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre Signed-off-by: Russell King

You are absolutely correct. That notice slipped by us and should not be in there. If someone with access to the mainline source could remove that for us we would appreciate it.

Patch from Ben Dooks This patch does the following: - Save S3C2410_DCLKCON over sleep - Save all non-SDRAM memory bank config - Fix bug in setting PLL before clock divisor - Save all IRQ level controlls - Restore IRQ masks _after_ configuration restored - No debug until core registers restored This patch also moves the pm save/restore list code into the header, for other parts of arch/arm/mach-s3c2410 to use. Note, this is not a general invite for external code to use these functions.

Before the RCU change distruction of the qdisc and all inner qdiscs happend immediately and under the rtnl semaphore. This made sure nothing holding the rtnl semaphore could end up with invalid memory. This is not true anymore, inner qdiscs found on dev->qdisc_list can be suddenly destroyed by the RCU callback. nothing can find them until they get destroyed. This also makes semantics sane again, an inner qdiscs should not be user-visible once the containing qdisc has been destroyed. The second part (locking in qdisc_lookup) is not really required, but currently the only purpose of qdisc_tree_lock seems to be to protect dev->qdisc_list, which is also protected by the rtnl. The rtnl is especially relied on for making sure nobody frees a qdisc while it is used in user-context, so qdisc_tree_lock looks unnecessary. I'm currently reviewing all qdisc locking, if this turns out to be right I will remove qdisc_tree_lock entirely in a follow-up patch, but for now I left it in for consistency.

We try to bind to the same source port when sending packets from the same source IP/source port to the outside world. Normally, this is simple, since we always try to keep the same source port anyway, but there are cases where that is not available. This is a requirement for the Kegel Peer-to-Peer NAT paper: http://alumnus.caltech.edu/~dank/peer-nat.html Unfortunately, our current implementation is useless. It looks up a hash to see if this srcip/srcpt has been used, but instead of returning the mapping to use, it simply returns that same srcip/srcpt. This is clearly wrong. As pointed out by Krisztian Kovacs. Also, we are no longer using the netfilter-special list iterators, so we can split src_cmp, in_range and the actual result manipulation for much clearer code.
