7f30491ccd [IA64] Move include/asm-ia64 to arch/ia64/include/asm
After moving the the include files there were a few clean-ups:

1) Some files used #include <asm-ia64/xyz.h>, changed to <asm/xyz.h>

2) Some comments alerted maintainers to look at various header files to
make matching updates if certain code were to be changed. Updated these
comments to use the new include paths.

3) Some header files mentioned their own names in initial comments. Just
deleted these self references.

34d8a380d7 GRU Driver: hardware data structures
This series of patches adds a driver for the SGI UV GRU.  The driver is
still in development but it currently compiles for both x86_64 & IA64.
All simple regression tests pass on IA64.  Although features remain to be
added, I'd like to start the process of getting the driver into the
kernel.  Additional kernel drivers will depend on services provide by the
GRU driver.

The GRU is a hardware resource located in the system chipset.  The GRU
contains memory that is mmaped into the user address space.  This memory
is used to communicate with the GRU to perform functions such as
load/store, scatter/gather, bcopy, AMOs, etc.  The GRU is directly
accessed by user instructions using user virtual addresses.  GRU
instructions (ex., bcopy) use user virtual addresses for operands.

The GRU contains a large TLB that is functionally very similar to
processor TLBs.  Because the external contains a TLB with user virtual
address, it requires callouts from the core VM system when certain types
of changes are made to the process page tables.  There are several MMUOPS
patches currently being discussed but none has been accepted into the
kernel.  The GRU driver is built using version V18 from Andrea Arcangeli.

This patch:

Contains the definitions of the hardware GRU data structures that are used
by the driver to manage the GRU.

cab7a1eeeb KVM: ia64: Fix irq disabling leak in error handling code
There is a call to local_irq_restore in the normal exit case, so it would

85ba2d862e tracehook: wait_task_inactive
This extends wait_task_inactive() with a new argument so it can be used in
a "soft" mode where it will check for the task changing state unexpectedly
and back off.  There is no change to existing callers.  This lays the
groundwork to allow robust, noninvasive tracing that can try to sample a
blocked thread but back off safely if it wakes up.

8d8bb39b9e dma-mapping: add the device argument to dma_mapping_error()
Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER
architecture does:

This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices
are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423).

I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for
KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it
difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread).  So I
CC'ed this to KVM camp.  Comments are appreciated.

A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added.  If the
pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it.  If it's
NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before.

If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register
a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works
with hot plugging).  It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate
dma_mapping_ops per device.

The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the
device unlike other DMA operations.  So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per
device.  Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function
so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different
dma_mapping_error functions.

The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error.  The patch
is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in
all the architecture.

This patch:

dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA
operations.  So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device.

Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER
IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function.  x86 IOMMUs use device
argument.

ef53d9c5e4 kprobes: improve kretprobe scalability with hashed locking
Currently list of kretprobe instances are stored in kretprobe object (as
used_instances,free_instances) and in kretprobe hash table.  We have one
global kretprobe lock to serialise the access to these lists.  This causes
only one kretprobe handler to execute at a time.  Hence affects system
performance, particularly on SMP systems and when return probe is set on
lot of functions (like on all systemcalls).

Solution proposed here gives fine-grain locks that performs better on SMP
system compared to present kretprobe implementation.

Solution:

 1) Instead of having one global lock to protect kretprobe instances
    present in kretprobe object and kretprobe hash table.  We will have
    two locks, one lock for protecting kretprobe hash table and another
    lock for kretporbe object.

 2) We hold lock present in kretprobe object while we modify kretprobe
    instance in kretprobe object and we hold per-hash-list lock while
    modifying kretprobe instances present in that hash list.  To prevent
    deadlock, we never grab a per-hash-list lock while holding a kretprobe
    lock.

 3) We can remove used_instances from struct kretprobe, as we can
    track used instances of kretprobe instances using kretprobe hash
    table.

Time duration for kernel compilation ("make -j 8") on a 8-way ppc64 system
with return probes set on all systemcalls looks like this.

ed8cae8ba0 flag parameters: pipe
This patch introduces the new syscall pipe2 which is like pipe but it also
takes an additional parameter which takes a flag value.  This patch implements
the handling of O_CLOEXEC for the flag.  I did not add support for the new
syscall for the architectures which have a special sys_pipe implementation.  I
think the maintainers of those archs have the chance to go with the unified
implementation but that's up to them.

The implementation introduces do_pipe_flags.  I did that instead of changing
all callers of do_pipe because some of the callers are written in assembler.
I would probably screw up changing the assembly code.  To avoid breaking code
do_pipe is now a small wrapper around do_pipe_flags.  Once all callers are
changed over to do_pipe_flags the old do_pipe function can be removed.

The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

a551643895 hugetlb: modular state for hugetlb page size
The goal of this patchset is to support multiple hugetlb page sizes.  This
is achieved by introducing a new struct hstate structure, which
encapsulates the important hugetlb state and constants (eg.  huge page
size, number of huge pages currently allocated, etc).

The hstate structure is then passed around the code which requires these
fields, they will do the right thing regardless of the exact hstate they
are operating on.

This patch adds the hstate structure, with a single global instance of it
(default_hstate), and does the basic work of converting hugetlb to use the
hstate.

Future patches will add more hstate structures to allow for different
hugetlbfs mounts to have different page sizes.

4a0b2b4dbe sysdev: Pass the attribute to the low level sysdev show/store function
This allow to dynamically generate attributes and share show/store
functions between attributes. Right now most attributes are generated
by special macros and lots of duplicated code. With the attribute
passed it's instead possible to attach some data to the attribute
and then use that in shared low level functions to do different things.

I need this for the dynamically generated bank attributes in the x86
machine check code, but it'll allow some further cleanups.

I converted all users in tree to the new show/store prototype. It's a single
huge patch to avoid unbisectable sections.

efc7508c9e [IA64] Avoid overflowing ia64_cpu_to_sapicid in acpi_map_lsapic()
acpi_map_lsapic tries to stuff a long into ia64_cpu_to_sapicid[],
which can only hold ints, so let's fix that.

We need to update the signature of acpi_map_cpu2node() too.

Akiyama, Nobuyuki
740a8de079 [IA64] adding parameter check to module_free()
module_free() refers the first parameter before checking.
    But it is called like below(in kernel/kprobes). The first parameter is always NULL.
This happens when many probe points(>1024) are set by kprobes.
I encountered this with using SystemTap. It can set many probes easily.

static int __kprobes collect_one_slot(struct kprobe_insn_page *kip, int idx)
{
...
    if (kip->nused == 0) {
	    hlist_del(&kip->hlist);
	    if (hlist_empty(&kprobe_insn_pages)) {
		...
	    } else {
		    module_free(NULL, kip->insns); //<<< 1st param always NULL
		    kfree(kip);
	    }
	    return 1;
    }
    return 0;
}

da5e09a1b3 ACPI : Create "idle=nomwait" bootparam
"idle=nomwait" disables the use of the MWAIT
instruction from both C1 (C1_FFH) and deeper (C2C3_FFH)
C-states.

When MWAIT is unavailable, the BIOS and OS generally
negotiate to use the HALT instruction for C1,
and use IO accesses for deeper C-states.

This option is useful for power and performance
comparisons, and also to work around BIOS bugs
where broken MWAIT support is advertised.

c1e3b377ad ACPI: Create "idle=halt" bootparam
"idle=halt" limits the idle loop to using
the halt instruction.  No MWAIT, no IO accesses,
no C-states deeper than C1.

If something is broken in the idle code,
"idle=halt" is a less severe workaround
than "idle=poll" which disables all power savings.

dd4f0888f8 [IA64] Bugfix for system with 32 cpus
On a system where there are no hot pluggable cpus "additional_cpus"
is still set to -1 at the point where we call per_cpu_scan_finalize().
If we didn't find an SRAT table and so pick the default "32" for the
number of cpus, when we get to:
high_cpu = min(high_cpu + reserve_cpus, NR_CPUS);
we will end up initializing for just 31 cpus ... and so we will
die horribly when bringing up cpu#32.

3463a93def [IA64] Update check_sal_cache_flush to use platform_send_ipi()
check_sal_cache_flush is used to detect broken firmware that drops
pending interrupts.

The old implementation schedules a timer interrupt for itself in
the future by getting the current value of the Interval Timer
Counter + 1000 cycles, waits for the interrupt to be pended, calls
SAL_CACHE_FLUSH, and finally checks to see if the interrupt is
still pending.

This implementation can cause problems for virtual machine code if
the process of scheduling the timer interrupt takes more than 1000
cycles; the virtual machine can end up sleeping for several hundred
years while waiting for the ITC to wrap around.

The fix is to use platform_send_ipi. The processor will still send
an interrupt to itself, using the IA64_IPI_DM_INT delivery mode,
which causes the IPI to look like an external interrupt. The rest
of the SAL_CACHE_FLUSH + checking to see if the interrupt is still
pending remains unchanged.

This fix has been boot tested successfully on:

	- intel tiger2
	- hp rx6600
	- hp rx5670

The rx5670 has known buggy firmware, where SAL_CACHE_FLUSH drops
pending interrupts. A boot test on this machine showed this message
on the console:

SAL: SAL_CACHE_FLUSH drops interrupts; PAL_CACHE_FLUSH will be used instead

Which proves that the self-inflicted IPI approach is viable. And
as expected, the other tested platforms correctly did not display
the warning.
