e589ed23dd [ARM] 5218/1: arm: improved futex support
Linux/ARM currently doesn't support robust or PI futexes.
The problem is that the kernel wants to perform certain ops
(cmpxchg, set, add, or, andn, xor) atomically on user-space
addresses, and ARM's futex.h doesn't support that.

This patch adds that support, but only for uniprocessor machines.
For UP it's enough to disable preemption to ensure mutual exclusion
with other software agents (futexes don't need to care about other
hardware agents, fortunately).

This patch is based on one posted by Khem Raj on 2007-08-01
<http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=118599407413016&w=2>.
(That patch is included in the -RT kernel patches.)
My changes since that version include:
* corrected implementation of FUTEX_OP_ANDN (must complement oparg)
* added missing memory clobber to futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic()
* removed spinlock because it's unnecessary for UP and insufficient
  for SMP, instead the code is restricted to UP and relies on the
  fact that pagefault_disable() also disables preemption
* coding style cleanups

Tested on ARMv5 XScales with the glibc-2.6 nptl test suite.

The has Rx work check was wrong: when the FW was at the end of the page,
the driver was already at the beginning of the next page. Since the
check only validated that both driver and FW are pointing to the same

some serious issues including long latency results on ping-pong test and
lockups while unloading the driver in that condition.

d25e26b61d [x86] Clean up MAXSMP Kconfig, and limit NR_CPUS to 512
This fixes a regression that was indirectly caused by commit
1184dc2ffe ("x86: modify Kconfig to allow
up to 4096 cpus").

Allowing 4k CPU's is not practical at this time, because we still have a
number of places that have several 'cpumask_t's on the stack, and a
4k-bit cpumask is 512 bytes of stack-space for each such variable.  This
literally caused functions like 'smp_call_function_mask' to have a 2.5kB
stack frame, and several functions to have 2kB stackframes.

With an 8kB stack total, smashing the stack was simply much too likely.
At least bugzilla entry

	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11342

was due to this.

The earlier commit to not inline load_module() into sys_init_module()
fixed the particular symptoms of this that Alan Brunelle saw in that
bugzilla entry, but the huge stack waste by cpumask_t's was the more
direct cause.

Some day we'll have allocation helpers that allocate large CPU masks
dynamically, but in the meantime we simply cannot allow cpumasks this
large.

ffb4ba76a2 [module] Don't let gcc inline load_module()
'load_module()' is a complex function that contains all the ELF section
logic, and inlining it is utterly insane.  But gcc will do it, simply
because there is only one call-site.  As a result, all the stack space
that is allocated for all the work to load the module will still be
active when we actually call the module init sequence, and the deep call
chain makes stack overflows happen.

And stack overflows are really hard to debug, because they not only
corrupt random pages below the stack, but also corrupt the thread_info
structure that is allocated under the stack.

In this case, Alan Brunelle reported some crazy oopses at bootup, after
loading the processor module that ends up doing complex ACPI stuff and
has quite a deep callchain.  This should fix it, and is the sane thing
to do regardless.

354879bb97 sched_clock: fix cpu_clock()
This patch fixes 3 issues:

a) it removes the dependency on jiffies, because jiffies are incremented
   by a single CPU, and the tick is not synchronized between CPUs. Therefore
   relying on it to calculate a window to clip whacky TSC values doesn't work
   as it can drift around.

   So instead use [GTOD, GTOD+TICK_NSEC) as the window.

b) __update_sched_clock() did (roughly speaking):

   delta = sched_clock() - scd->tick_raw;
   clock += delta;

   Which gives exponential growth, instead of linear.

c) allows the sched_clock_cpu() value to warp the u64 without breaking.

the results are more reliable sched_clock() deltas:

2a61812af2 x86: add X86_FEATURE_XMM4_2 definitions
Added Intel processor SSE4.2 feature flag.

No in-tree user at the moment, but makes the tree-merging life easier
for the crypto tree.

1327138e29 KVM: fix userspace ABI breakage
The following part of commit 9ef621d3be
(KVM: Support mixed endian machines) changed on the size of a struct
that is exported to userspace:

include/linux/kvm.h:

@@ -318,14 +318,14 @@ struct kvm_trace_rec {
 	__u32 vcpu_id;
 	union {
 		struct {
-			__u32 cycle_lo, cycle_hi;
+			__u64 cycle_u64;
 			__u32 extra_u32[KVM_TRC_EXTRA_MAX];
 		} cycle;
 		struct {
 			__u32 extra_u32[KVM_TRC_EXTRA_MAX];
 		} nocycle;
 	} u;
-};
+} __attribute__((packed));

Packing a struct was the correct idea, but it packed the wrong struct.

cd5998ebfb KVM: MMU: Fix torn shadow pte
The shadow code assigns a pte directly in one place, which is nonatomic on
i386 can can cause random memory references.  Fix by using an atomic setter.

18b13e5457 KVM: Use .fixup instead of .text.fixup on __kvm_handle_fault_on_reboot
vmlinux.lds expects the fixup code to be on a section named .fixup. The
.text.fixup section is not mentioned on vmlinux.lds, and is included on
the resulting vmlinux (just after .text) only because of ld heuristics on
placing orphan sections.

However, placing .text.fixup outside .text breaks the definition of
_etext, making it exclude the .text.fixup contents. That makes .text.fixup
be ignored by the kernel initialization code that needs to know about
section locations, such as the code setting page protection bits.
